...oh. [Arven whispers, his hands trembling as he holds onto his frying pan.] I didn't- I didn't mean to do that.
[Even if it was apparently the right move, it doesn't feel all that good. Aubrey's words echo in his mind, buzzing as loudly like the static she turned into as she disappeared.]
...It'll never go back to the way it was.
[He murmurs that echo aloud. Yeah. He really can say it himself and feel the exact same sentiment.]
There's a room ahead of us. See it? [He points Eli toward the room beyond the tear.] Maybe we'll find the real her there. Maybe that Aubrey will actually listen to what we have to say.
[His eyes widen a bit as when he feels far less resistance than he was expecting, which is only emphasized by how easily 'Aubrey' rips apart. Even if it's clear that it's only a facsimile of her appearance, it still feels a little bit fucked up to have something that was talking and acting like Aubrey torn up like that.
There's a glance over at Arven for his reaction too, but Aaron won't comment given that he seems to have it together. Besides, there's still one more area to check out before they're out of the woods.]
Only one way to find out. [But before that, he squints suspiciously at the picnic basket that's practically being spotlighted.] Although it's pretty convenient for this to be lying around here.
[ Hopefully, even. Ah, but he notices Aaron squinting off some other direction and following that to the light, then the light down to the picnic basket. ]
Oh shit, is that food?
[ Yes, he will go over there and look in it. It's free food. Don't say no to free food, man! ]
[He will follow Eli if only just to peek inside the basket and see what's being offered but uh. Yeah, gummies aren't really doing it for him here, which is just as well considering how Arven voiced exactly what Aaron was thinking.
Picnic food tho...]
Pretty sure that'd fill us up better than these, anyway. I mean, it's just candy.

[He can’t help but be a little wary considering where they are.]
