So I was working on the dig some more, and I think I found something important.

A little bit of both, maybe?

[spaghettimonster]

Not even a hint, then?

[He thought for sure he'd wheedle Jimmy into giving something away.]

How far in the water do we have to go to see it, I want to know if I'm bringing waders.

[lovedramamoron]

Come down and see. [Jimmy was teasing, a little, but also very serious.]

"Not far. It was right at the edge."

[network:voice] -> [action]?

[spaghettimonster]

Oh, alright. Keep your mysteries until I get there.

[It'll take him about fifteen minutes, all told, to wrap up what he's in the middle of and travel to the dig. No waders on his feet - hopefully this will be shallow enough his shoes don't get entirely soaked. He walks along the river's edge, searching for where Jimmy - and any others gathered to see - are at.]

[ When he gets there he'll find Jimmy kneeling over a site right at the edge of the water. ]

[spaghettimonster]

Good, you haven't made yourself scarce.

[Russell comes to peer at the site where Jimmy's kneeling, and frowns as he squints.]

...Don't tell me it sank back in, or anything like that.

Nah, its just in the mud. Its hard keeping it clear.

[He gestures at what is just barely visible as a small set of dormouse statues. ]

[spaghettimonster]

[With the mud, squinting isn't getting him very far. Russell crouches down to get a little closer, and surreptitiously pulls out a pair of glasses to help focus on the shapes in down there.]

Statues... of mice?

[lovedramamoron]

"Don't they look a lot like those mice who've been showing up?"

[spaghettimonster]

Uh. I suppose? I haven't gotten many good looks at them...

[They've been watching him from a distance, after a poor initial impression, and he hasn't gone out of his way to make amends. So many of the other strangenesses disappeared after a week or two, he'd assumed the mice would be the same.]
