[Lake: Connie, Newt, Patrick]
[The drive from the lookout to the lake wasn't a long one. The Ranger Service-issue jeep was old and loud, but it could go anywhere, man, and Patrick planned to drive it right up to the dock. He was dressed in cargos and plaid layered over white thermal, and his hiking boots were caked with a day's work. His badge was on his belt, mostly hidden by his layers of Abercrombie & Fitch, and his blond hair flopped long over pointed ears that he was majorly still ignoring. He was packing heat, but he tucked it into the glove compartment. Dude wasn't going to need bullets with his bro's magical Casanova in attendance.
It occurred to him, because this particular thing always occurred to Patrick, to call Con up on the way. Yo, Con, our bro's something called an obscurial. It had occurred to him, and he'd only intended to call, dudes, but by the time Con was on the phone the jeep was already turning toward Casa Gunster. All right, so Newt might be severely uncool with this turn of events, but Con would never let him live down not cluing her in. And, Patrick knew, that once clued in Con would want to accompany them. It was her older sister instincts, man, and Adrian was firmly in Kid-Bro camp.
He filled her in while he drove, and then he honked the horn and disconnected. Once she was in the jeep, he turned toward the lake.] Newt says the blown up homestead in the woods was Adrian. I talked to the dude on the forums, man, and didn't sound like Adrian, Con. Newt says it's like another personality or something, and that they don't know about each other or something maybe. He isn't sure, so we want to use the chronometer to see what happened at the lake, to see if it's Adrian or something else. [He turned onto the dirt road that led to the dock, and the jeep rocked as it covered uneven ground.] Dude, you know this would make us the normal Gunster kids.
