[ TOO BAD HE DOESN'T HAVE HIS "BEING CHASED THROUGH A WHEATFIELD WITH HIS LOLI BY ASSASSINS THAT HE PROMPTLY MURDERS" MEMORY because this would start to be very familiar.
Clutching the scythe close and at the ready when he sees something out of the corner of his eye. He looks to Cascade, and then raises his hand to motion in a "be ready" way to the both of them.
He stays silent too, so I guess this is a silent agreement to try to keep moving quietly ... for now. ]
[So he's looking to the other two especially right now, but still paying attention to where the kids are coming from, both hands on the scythes handle now]
[ He gives a warning glance to Coin and Cascade, one that says "be careful" but one that isn't quite "HEY LET'S MURDER THESE CHILDREN."
Because.
You know.
They're children.
He does take the tiniest step up though, still ready to defend himself just in case. But he figures even if this is creepy as fuck, so far nothing's been TOO trauma-like, so... he puts on his CARING BIG BRO voice. ]
Come where, exactly? Do you kids want to play with us?
[ Coming a bit close up behind Cascade because boy, if you think you're going to step closer to weird children holding strange thing alone, no. He's still letting him take the lead tho.
He's pretty much ready to grab him by the collar or swing. ]
[ Making sure Cascade is ahead of him when they turn around, juuuust in case that child is advancing, because he will parry with his scythe if he has to. ]
[ stumbling from that as he's trying to escape children and yes, wincing and stumbling from the pain. it takes him a moment to be able to get his footing, but it's amazing what adrenaline can do.
he's gritting his jaw hard not to yell out over the pain and limping the best he can. SORRY TEAM ]

Re: CORN MAZE
Then they come back, a chorus of children's voices that can't be more than a few yards in front of where you're standing.]
We've been waiting for you.
Re: CORN MAZE
Geez
Re: CORN MAZE
Still, play it cool Rook, play it cool with the childrens. ]
You have?
[ A short pause. ]
For what?
Re: CORN MAZE
Re: CORN MAZE
[More footsteps. The closer they get, the more it seems like they're coming from shortly in front of the group.]

Re: CORN MAZE
[As the footsteps continue, you can see vague outlines moving forward. They all seem to be holding something.]

GOOD PLANS, RIGHT?
he holds his hand out for the other two to stay back a moment and keep an eye on the situation ]

Re: CORN MAZE
The bad news: It's a scythe, and being that close means he's in it's range.
The worse news: The child holding it looks decidedly... off. The weapon is being raised now, as if to swing.
Think fast.]
Re: CORN MAZE
Re: CORN MAZE
So.
DOING THAT AND YANKING, jumping back himself. ]
Back the way we came!
Re: CORN MAZE
[And he will turn and wait to know the others are on the way too]

Re: CORN MAZE
Sorry Cascade RNG hates you.
It's not bad enough that he can't walk, but it'll definitely slow him down.]

Re: CORN MAZE
Rook is going to get behind him so nothing else catches up to him. ]
Re: CORN MAZE
