He ducked under a branch and shook his antlers, freeing them of the leaves he didn't manage to clear.
"So be careful if you decide to come out this way and look for your mushi. If the faeries learn about it, if they don't already know, one might disguise itself and try to lead you down a sinkhole or something equally terrible."
The tall man bristled with paranoia. The sky was purple by the time they reached the pines that parted Ginko's world from James's.
"I'll keep that in mind, then." He watched James curiously; he knew a bit about his history with faeries, of course, but this made it even more clear that there was still a lot he wasn't aware of.
He slowed to a stop as they reached the gate, glancing at JW again. "You want to come through for a bit, or head back?"
JW watched the space between the trees and had a short internal battle. Finally, he shook his head.
"I should head back. I'll come back again soon--with daylight to spare!"
He gave his fellow world-walker a wave before shoving his hands into his pockets. He would wait until Ginko was out of sight, to make sure the portal didn't suddenly decide to act up and tear him in half, before turning and picking his way back through the woods.
