[And it's not long before Lauren lands somewhat near Julien, still in the form of a small falcon. Honestly, its almost silly how small he looks compared to the giant bird that is Julien, but then he's shifted back to his usual half-elf form, taking a step back to look at the tree and see how it's trapped Yuuya and Lambert inside.]
[Not being one for small talk, mostly because he sucks at it, but also because he's terrible at any and all social conventions, the first thing he does is cast the spell that will let him negotiate with the tree. The thing is, talking with trees actually doesn't involve any actual speech, so to almost everyone it will look as though Lauren is just standing there looking concerned. He is 'speaking' with the tree though, more or less on a telepathic level as he asks it why it is so unwilling to let the people it's captured go.]
