"That direction, huh? Hm..." Gale pondered. He wasn't doubting their words, but instead trying to recall the sights and vistas he'd passed by. "Alright, let's go then," he'd reaffirm, walking ahead of the other two while beckoning them to follow him.
Only a little bit after they'd left, Gale already got stuck in his own thoughts. He'd pay attention to the road, still, but inside of his heads were thoughts of something Fio mentioned: Camping. It shouldn't take them that long to get there, but Gale does remember his own nights camping on the road. Staring up at the night sky, huddling close to the fire he'd made to keep warm. The stars looked beautiful, but by himself like he was, those nights felt oppressive and lonely, too. It reminded him he still needed to find...
...
"Ting?" Gale addressed his new companion, turning his head back to look back at the two following him. "Have you always travelled alone before? I kind of hated it," he'd admit, scratching the his ribbon's ear subconsciously. "So I hope the three of us will get along from here on out. The road's a lot nicer with friends."
The least Gale could do was try to talk to his teammates. Well... as long as he didn't lose sight of the road, anyway. Luckily, it did seem like his memory wasn't failing him. The surroundings looked at least vaguely familiar, and it hadn't been that long since he'd passed by, so he could afford to walk with a bit more confidence. "Either case... I think I can get us there before the sun goes down. Unless Fio's right about our roadblock, anyway."
