"Oh, good! You always were better at this than me", he told him, making an effort to try and be a little less focused on the circle. He put a hand on Garret's shoulder as they walked back over toward the others. "Strength in numbers", he muttered to himself, giving his shoulder a squeeze. Were Craig to have a motto, that would probably be it, and it had served him well tonight. The strength of another had definitely kept him from being drawn in.
Craig followed Garret, moving his hand off of his shoulder as they got back to where the others were. He nodded his head away from the group, but back further from the mushrooms, interested in checking out their bounty of stones and pebbles.
