Where: The Forest first, then Oak Grove
When: Day One, 10am-ish
What: Tonks wakes up in the forest and soon makes her way to civilization



Things sort of ran together these days. Danger was at every turn, the school was threatened, Dumbledore seemed off, the Order had another run-in with the Death Eaters, and friendships were strained. And that was just on Friday. The weekend meant that there was a changing of the guard at Hogwarts, but sure as hell didn't mean that Tonks was actually getting a day off. Far from it. Instead, from one assignment to the next she quite literally flew to. It was a mission with Bill Weasley, making a drop-off and having a bit of information gathering with one of their undercover folks. And, being as their undercover person was a certain man who was currently not helping Tonks' overall mental health, it was a little awkward to say the least.

Tonks didn't particularly like awkward. She was already quite awkward without help, thank you.

After switching supplies for information with Remus Lupin, the mousy brunette witch looked at her redheaded companion. Wry smile was flashed and she gave a shrug. Time to go. Couldn't stick around in one place too long, not as they were. A few words were exchanged of the reassuring kind, and they Apparated to the safe location in which to get back to headquarters. After an idle conversation and some tea, Tonks plopped on the floor and pressed her back against the sofa before closing her eyes briefly. But she was still talking. "Merlin, what I wouldn't give for a vacation." Feebly joked around. Bill didn't say anything. Tonks turned her head, eyes still closed for the moment, and then opened one eye first. Then the other.

Bill wasn't there. Neither was the sofa that she had been leaning against. Instead, it was a tree in an unknown forest. Hackles immediately raised, Tonks scrambled up and reached for her wand in her back pocket. Sadly, that wasn't where it should have been either. Fuck. Taking a step back, she tripped on something and found..a tin? Oh no. Nonono. Slowly, she reached over and grabbed up the tin..all the while thinking 'this is a dream, it's a bloody dream.'..and opened it up.

That was when she slammed the tin shut and looked up at the sky angrily. "Oy! When I said I wanted a bloody vacation, this was not what I had in mind!" Tossers. The lot of them. Tucking the stupid tin underneath her arm, Nymphadora Tonks started walking. Hopefully, she'd be able to find the town again.

Once she thought about it, and saw it, she'd probably be irritated with the fact that the Management would be amused that her hair went from mousy brown -- stuck like that for a handful of months -- to platinum white. Jerks.
