3rd person POV:

Nathan and his new friend, Jenny, ate together in the hotel's restaurant.

Nathan: You're a streamer?

Jenny: Yeah, heard of me?

Nathan: I'm not much of a viewer... More a player.

Nathan: Of games! N-not something else...

He made sure she understood what he meant.

Jenny:(giggles)... Don't worry, I got what you meant.

Nathan: Good...

Jenny: Did you really think I would have misinterpreted that as something else?

Nathan: Maybe a little.

Jenny: Sorry, but you don't look like a womanizer.

Nathan: Really, because I usually get mistaken for one.

Jenny:(giggles)

Nathan:(smiles)

Jenny: You're really funny for a kid.

Nathan: Oi, oi, oi! I'm eighteen.

Jenny: Oh, sorry. You're really funny for a baby adult.

Nathan:... I don't know why I like that more.

Jenny:(chuckles)...(yawn)... Sorry, I'm pretty tired. See you around, baby adult.

Nathan: Okay, old child.

Waving goodbye the two head back to their rooms.

Nathan:(mind) She was pretty nice... And hot...

Nathan: Maybe... Nah, she'd-

Nathan: Maybe there's a chance...

(Day 7)

In the base with Disco, he begins to tell me the plan.

Disco: Here's a flamethrower, Molotov cocktails, and a bucket of lava. Have fun.

Yn: That's it?

Disco: It's a forest. What more do you need to set a fire?

Yn: No, I mean... You just want me to go in and set it all ablaze?

Yn: No timed explosives? How about, I lead them away from where the fire will start, truly screw them over.

Disco: Cool it with the theatrics. I just want a message sent.

Yn:... A message, huh?

Disco: Yeah, you know what a message is? Or does your generation not have that?

Yn: I know what a message is, and I'll give her the best damn massage you've ever seen.

Disco:... Okay. Get lost, I have things to do.

With the conversation quickly coming to an end, I head off. I had a plan, a very...hot...plan.

In the dead of night, with all my might, I tirelessly worked on setting up my big message while taking this opportunity to scout out the system of the tree people.
