It was a familiar scent that stirred him from his place. It drifted past trees and rocks, finding it's way to the nose of the tired male. Sleep was still a fleeting thing, coming in small spurts and lasting barely an hour or two. Heavy eyes opened finally, wishing away the light that poured in to him, and he moved them across the landscape in front of him as he waited for his vision to adjust. Trees, trees, and more trees. He was still in the forest. There were times when Conri would literally wake up and not know where he was, or even times that he just sort 'snapped out of it' and didn't know where he was. Today, at the very least, he seemed to be halfway aware of thing. Getting himself to his knees, Conri reached out to take hold of the baseball bat with his hand, pressing the end of it in to the dirt to help get himself to his feet. He moved from beneath the tree then, dragging the bat behind him as went along, looking something like a zombie as he went. Nose flared now and again, taking in the scent, leading him to the area that it was coming from. Finally, after a short distance, Conri found him. He was resting beneath a tree, or seemed to be, but he also spoke to himself. Ears tipped forward as he approached, finally revealing himself from behind a row of trees, heading straight for his brother. He continued to drag the bat along, only stopping a few feet from Khaden. The expression on his face turned from something that seemed quite dead to something more sad. Khaden would be disappointed in him, should be, and probably was. "Happy Birthday.." He managed, and said nothing more than that. |
