Her answer was both oddly specific and alarmingly vague, but Robin was intrigued. He nodded slowly. "Ah... ship parts, yes..." he wondered it that was code for something else, or if she was actually planning on building a ship for some reason. They weren't exactly right by the ocean though...

"I think going to the city is our best option," he said, having spent the past minute or so mulling over what she had suggested. "I just might need to change before we get there." He didn't go into more information. Even if the newcomers were as magical as the rest of this town, he didn't trust them yet. Even more so, he had to change his form before they reached any city: his current guise would stand out too much, and didn't possess the resources Leonardo Cartwright did.

Rowan nods. "Alright, you riding or you want to meet me there, Maahes?" she inquires.
"All that is gold does not glitter,
Not all those who wander are lost;
The old that is strong does not wither,
Deep roots are not reached by the frost."

Robin cleared his throat. "Uh, okay but like, what about me?"

Raiden turned to Robin
"If you're down for it, you can accompany me in trailing behind these two," he said with a shrug.
"'Cause, I mean, I'm not doing anything else anyway."

Two possibilities exist: Either we are alone in the universe, or we are not. Both are equally terrifying.

Robin smiles, though feels a little torn. "Oh! Okay! What are we building a ship for? And Raiden can come too, right?"

"Yeah yeah, I can come too! Right?" Raiden had a hopeful glint to his eyes as he looked to Rowan, waiting for a response.

Maahes was trying his best to not grow increasingly panicked, but that was an impossible task. Other people wanted to come along, and Rowan had said yes because he hadn't thought of a good reply in time! Now he was stuck looking like this. He couldn't explain why he looked like a completely different man when they ended up in the city. Besides that, now he had to worry about drawing unnecessary attention with his bright scarlet hair - why did he have to be so stupid!? The SGC would find him and then they'd interrogate him for who knows how long and never trust him because humans never really liked things that were incredibly different than them!

Xi was in the city, looking for some new hair dye. She decided that, once Maahas left, she would change herself completely and move to a different town.

It was the safest way.

"You," he said to Rowan, imitating her, "are not my mother."

"No, I'm the one driving the car," she retorts. "You are not a wolf and you are not a citizen of this town, either, nor are you someone who I've had any previous interaction with."
