[ Hong Kong got himself into this mess. He'll get himself out of it! ]

Did you see the lemurs last time you were here?

[volcanic]

Lemurs...?

[bauhinia]

[ He points to the next exhibit. ] These guys.

[volcanic]

[ Halting to look at them. ]

Oh...

[bauhinia]

[ They're in the opposite direction of the puffins! ]

They're cute, yeah?

[volcanic]

I guess so... They have long tails. [ Which are cute, but shhh. ]

[bauhinia]

Some of them are striped too. [ He clearly thinks this is Super Cute. The dork. ]

[volcanic]

I- I know. I see them.

[bauhinia]

Sometimes they sleep with their tails all wrapped around them.

[volcanic]

...I thought we were going to see the puffins. [ Don't try to woobify him with more cute animals!! ]

[bauhinia]

You're leading the way there, aren't you? [ Supposedly. ]

[volcanic]

I am. But you were looking at the lemurs.

[bauhinia]

Checking on the lemurs. [ It's... not the same? Apparently? ]

[volcanic]

Right, whatever.

[bauhinia]

We can totally go and see the puffins now if you wanna.

[volcanic]

That's why we're here. [ But Iceland still has no idea where he's going. ]

[bauhinia]

Yeah, seems like it. [ And Hong Kong still isn't going to say anything. He doesn't wanna embarrass Iceland... or make him upset or something....

It's tricky. ]

[volcanic]

[ Even when he starts getting more and more unsure as to where they are?? ]

Yeah... Wasn't it over here...

[bauhinia]

[ Hong Kong helpfully points in the opposite direction. ] This way. It's easy to get turned around near the lemurs.

[ Safe?? ]

[volcanic]

[ Safe. ]

I- I knew that. [ Turning around VERY NONCHALANT-LIKE yeah he is totally in control of his situation. ]

[bauhinia]

I know you did. [ Just gonna go back to followin' you, Aisu. You lead the way. ]

[volcanic]

[ He might need a little help. Because he's still floundering, even if he's probably closer to the right path than before. ]

[bauhinia]

[ Hong Kong will match pace with Iceland, walking alongside him and subtly gravitating toward the right turns and paths. Subtly. ]

It's cold.

[volcanic]

[ And Iceland will take all the credit like he's some sort of excellent navigator. ]

It's not that bad.

[bauhinia]

[ You do that, Aisu. Hong Kong will slip a map in your pocket or something before you leave. ]

Right, you're used to this. [ Rubbing his arms a little. ]
