NIKI
Niki, to his credit, doesn't notice that his crutch has suddenly taken itself for a flight courtesy of a vampire gourd?? - he's absorbed enough in his work that it's only Fangorn's warbling screech that brings him out of it, the boy blinking at the sudden trio nearby. "Is everything alright?" he asks softly, glancing from girl to gourd to dragon and carefully marking the page in his book before closing it and setting it atop his papers to ensure they don't blow away.
Too bad the same can't be said for his crutch, and it's as he reaches for it to get up that he realises it's nowhere to be found. Peering over the edge of the rail, he doesn't spot it anywhere, which poses quite an interesting problem when it comes to him being able to leave the Observatory without shuffling down the steps and across the boughs on his backside. "I do not suppose you or your companions saw my cane?" he asks hopefully.

my body's on the line now; I can't fight this time now
I can feel the light shine on my face
I can feel the light shine on my face
