The duck pond in the park, Friday afternoon
Duke landed with a splash, submerged instantly in freezing water. He flailed, desperately trying to find the surface. There were faces all around him. Pink. Laughing.
No. Squawking. Beaked.
Duke surfaced, flailing at the water. Some of the flamingoes scattered. The rest squawked at him indignantly.
He was in a pond. The duck pond.
In Fandom.
"No," he whispered, flailing to his feet. Algae streaked his once white shirt. "No no no no. Audrey?!" He spun in a circle, searching the pond. If he'd fallen out here, maybe she had too? "Audrey!!!"
He dove forward, mindless of the cold, of the flamingos, of the water reeds and the potential Fandom specific risks that might be lurking there. Audrey knew nothing about gremlins. He'd rescued her from the water once before, he could do it again.
"Audrey!!!!!"
[expecting one, but can be open as well! Duke is unlikely to listen to anyone's attempts to reason with him right now.]
