(Ooooh, flying would get you there faster indeed. I had thought of the scooter, but it seemed a little cramped for all those adults )

[[oo yeah, let's fly! So how should we continue this? They go to the docks to wait for Razz and won't find a boat?]]
[[EDIT: I think it would be logical if Hollow'd come to think of the boat being a silly idea. So here, so we get this moving along.]]
Hollow stopped abruptly. His mind had just caught up on him. He wondered briefly just when he’d get to obeying commands before thinking them through. He’d never been the type. Then he shrugged the thought off and turned around to face the other champions – and Peri. He still hadn’t figured out what Peri was doing there, but he chose to ignore him for the time being. He didn’t seem like a threat, anyway.
“There’s no point in going on a boat,” he said, arching his neck a little. “We will be faster there if we walk, unless Dream Valley has moved since I last visited it.”
A glint of humour in his eyes died soon. He was not one to make jokes, though his good mood of last night still lingered enough for him to make an off-chance amusing remark like that.
His eyes wandered over to Jewel. The indigo stripe fascinated him. Seeing the future was a talent he would have envied a long time ago. Right now, he figured the two of them should become close. He had the intellect, and she had the vision. Together, they would make a powerful couple for the Rainbow to use.

“There’s no point in going on a boat,” he said, arching his neck a little. “We will be faster there if we walk, unless Dream Valley has moved since I last visited it.” "That's true," The pegasus spoke up, looking at the others, "Taking a boat to Dream Valley is going to take longer if anything. I propose we walk." (so sleepy...... )

"Well, I don't think Dream Valley grew legs and walked off somewhere, so I think you're good.," Peri responded to the other's sense of humor.
He sat down near the fountain's edge, somewhat ill of standing. All of this weeping and farwells, ulg, it was all tiresome. Peri was promptly pooped out. Too much excitement for one day, even for the actor. Daytime Drama didn't hold a candle to this.
The white stallion snickered lightly. What did you want to make a bet that likely, come this time a week from now, the writers would've come up with something disturbingly familiar to this scene. D*mn nuts and their inspiration from real life drama.
"You know, instead of walking, couldn't you, I don't know," he rubbed the back of his head absently, "Rent scooters maybe? Hotair balloons? Wouldn't that cut walking distance down?"

Hollow's head snapped up a little at Peri's words. Hot air balloons! Of course!
"Yes," he said briskly, "it would. An excellent idea." He looked at the rest of the champions. "As time is of the essence, we should prepare the balloon before Razzaroo and Roxanne return with the thief. Does anyone know someone who owns one and that we could borrow, or shall we have to go rent one?"

Peri's brows furrowed a moment. There used to be a balloon shop in town at some point, but Rainbow, he hadn't the time to do some ballooning lately. It should theoretically still be there...shouldn't it?
He shook his head, dismissing the thought. There were enough owners of hot air balloons to be more than willing to rent out their rides if a shop couldn't be found.
And so the actor began to pat around himself before he managed to produce a check book and a pen. These he promptly appointed to Hollow.
"You can forge the sig, I'll know you did it. And don't worry about 'fraud charges' or whatever. I won't press any.There should be store not far down the road just off to the feilds there," Peri directed with a hoof. "Be sure to get the safest ones you can." This of course was said with Jewel in mind, regardless if he knew she could fly or not.

Jewel had had quite enough of this waiting business, patient pony though she was. It felt as if time had been dragged along long enough as it was, and it would put her in a better state of mind if she felt she were -doing- something.
"Peri, dear.." She stepped closer to him, "Why dont we just go get the balloon? We could all go together, or maybe Hollow would prefer to stay here and direct the rest of the champs to the launch site?"
The pegasus looked at Peri with raised eyebrows, wondering if either of the stallions approved of the idea.

Peri Winkle tilted his head in Jewel's direction. Hearing her words, he almost smacked himself. Leave it to the mares to find the most logical and well suited method. Pft, that always made things boring.
Regardless, he merely shrugged his shoulder. He wasn't about ready to form a stupid argument over something exteremly, well, stupid and pointless. "I guess that works."
He gave a sort of blank expression to Hollow, feeling apologetic in his actions when taking back check book and pen. "If the others get back, just point them in our direction."
Having his posessions back, Peri sauntered up to Jewel, giving a nod of his head in affirmation. "After you," he stated in a more theatrical tone.

Sensing Peri's somewhat ill-at-ease demeanor, Jewel nuzzled his cheek, hoping to send some of her warmth into him. Inwardly, she jested to herself regarding the nature of stallions.
As the two turned to leave, she gave Hollow a small half-smile, trying still to lighten the heavy atmosphere.
"We'll meet everyone near the balloon shop, where we'll probably launch from," She called over her shoulder as she walked down the street with the actor.
(cont at the balloon shop?)

Hollow listened to Jewel and Peri make their plans, his mind racing on another question while they talked. Razz and Roxy still didn't know where they would be going. They would be going to the docks, which would be a detour. So he nodded to Jewel's and Peri's decision to go get them a balloon. It would smooth things up. When the two were gone, he turned to the orange and the red stripe.
"You to go to the meeting place," he said to them. "I will go find Razzaroo and Roxanne, to let them know of our changed plans."
And with that, he turned and galloped off, trusting Moony to know her way around the town to find the balloon shop, even if the red stripe didn't.
[[cont elsewhere - shall meet up Razz and Roxy at a suitable moment]]
