Adrien

Adrien smiled as Anna took his hand. He was glad, she was opening up so much more, from speaking to Axel and Mortimer to being comfortable with making contact with others. “Hopefully we find Mortimer soon,” Adrien said concernedly, “Sitting by the fire and drinking hot cocoa sounds like heaven in this cold,” he said with a laugh to lighten up the mood.

With that, he made his way back into the woods, taking Anna in the direction that he went when he was first following after Mort. He called out his name, hoping he’d hear his calls and reveal himself if he was anywhere close by. Eventually, they made it to where he had left Mortimer. “Mortimer! You can come out from hiding it was all a misunderstanding! Everything’s cleared up now and no one’s trying to kill you anymore!” Adrien shouted out, hoping Mortimer would show himself.

Zoe

Zoe was peaceful, she had felt safe for once in a long time. Despite everything that had been happening with her mentally and everything that had just occurred at the cabin, she felt calm resting on Chandler’s arm. There was still a numb pain in the back of her mind due to the fact that everything that happened made him scared of her, but she knew it was rational for him to be, and she felt better and relieved knowing that despite it he was still with her…that he wasn’t so freaked out that he stopped speaking to her.

She had fallen asleep, exhausted from everything that happened. She gave a soft smile before completely blanking out, warm and maybe even blissful while resting on Chandler.
