"Either the mists protect us, or we fall as it turns off, or we get thrust into the deep dreaming and need to be rescued" She blushes "I...I can't remember which. PROBABLY the mists protect us. THat would be nice of them, don't you think?"

“I thought they just made us forget our trickytreating.”

"No, mists also help the enchanted peoples forget and can even influence us kinda" She says "but samhain mists are really weird. "

He nods and reaches over to take hold of Gerd’s foot and give her a spin. “Whoops! Round round round round round....”

"ack" she swings around "Hey! " She stedies, then zooms on him and tickles

“Yipe yipe yipe!!” He yelps as he tries to backpedal away. “Can’t escape! It’s like swimming but I only know how to dog paddle!”

"hahah...mine is an evil if adorable laugh " more ticklilng

He gasps between laughs. “Stop- st- stop or I’ll peeeeee and have to sleep in the yaaaaard! Ahahhaha!”

"Okay okay" she stops with a smile "Now you know, troll power"

He regains his breath, staving off giggles but still grinning. “Why don’t we fly to the moon? And get some cheese?”

"We can't go to the moon, but we coudl go to the ktichen and get some cheese if you want"

“But why?” He pumps his feet and goes another 10 feet up!

"Uhm.. we should only get so high" Gerd flies up after

"If you go to far up you won't be able ot get down in time when it does wear off" she says

He grab Gerd’s hand and spins her in a circle. “Bird dogs jump, bird dogs fly, catch the cheese up in the sky!” He bunks for a higher jump.... right before he parses her last comment. “OH.”

"Oh no!" They launch further up!

“Maybe if we got up far enough we can pop out the other end? Like digging to China!” He suggests!

"I don't know, maybe UFOS will save us? But..." There's a tingle..." Okay let's fly back down, it's wearing off.."

the wind is cold up here, very

“I wanted moon cheese.” He sighs, shivering. “The funny man with the funny dog said it was better’n... better’n Wensleydale.”

She grabs him and starts to fly down pooka in an elbow grip, and her fist pointed to the earth

“Aren’t we going fast?”he asks...

“Why not just hopscotch the rest of the world up?”

"Because ti's too big for me!" Gerd says just as they close on 20 feet from the ground. ..the spell ends and they're falling

“Up and up and rescue pup! Climb a tree the quick way up!” He points up the nearest tree and drags Gerd with him as he attempts to reach a branch!

"you rang?" teh glamour seems to say as they have another lurch to a tree branch and ooff whomp and grab on, dangling about 18 feet from the ground

“Yay! Safe and sound on the ground...” he yips, hanging on.

"Someone's gonna see up my skirt!" A protest

"Oaaakkkk, what are you so fussy about?" Dagmar tromps after the big hound.

“Haaaayulp! Is the ground squishy Here??” He yips.

"Uhm. help? This is a call for help"

The teenager stops and looks up. "How the hell did you get up there?"

"Oh the story would bore you" The troll childling says "Little pooka trouble. No big. "

"Can you get down? The jumpy magic?"

"Oh. I guess I could" A blush "uhm.. second. " A deep breath, and she latches onto Connor "That's one small bounce for Pups, one giant assisted leap for Connor and Me! THe Beagle has landed, the beagle has landed"

And Connor finds himself yanked by troll weight and glamour to land safely with a tuck and roll below

possibly sitting on top of Gerd though

"You're both okay?"

"No," She says distressed

"No?"

"No" She says looking at her outfit "I just got this dress and it's all muddy and leaf covered now. What if the dirt doesn't come out?"

"I bet Miss Kerri could fix it."

"How am I going to splain?" sullen

"It's just a little mud."

"And dirty leaves"

A snort. "Those are nothin'. They brush off."

She brushes them but doesn't seem much happier "I just don't like being dirty. Dirty is for boys"

Dagmar harrumphs.

"you okay, Conner?"
