a wild sciencedaddy appears

[miraculost]

[It's a long shot, and he knows it. Reports of a shy, man-shaped mononoke in the town on the other side of the woods? There's too many ways it could be coincidence, or all just hot air.

but where could he have run on that first day, if not into the woods and away from humans? what if he just kept going, until he found a place to stay?

it feels too serendipitous to ignore. and that's why he's here in this small town.]
