Back alleys. Of course. But really it was dingy and although he knew that Vi wasnt some wallflower shying away from the unpleasant, this was hardly the place he would want her to be exposed to. Because it was gross and ghastly and....
....gone. Uh oh. They were at it again huh? He turned around where they stood, looking back where they came from and peering around the corner where they were headed, only to be greeted with an identical passageway like the one they just walked past. "Welp.... what else is new right?" he chuckled despite their situation. He held out for her hand saying "We've already come this far, lets keep going.... who knows maybe the clearing is around the next corner?" and he started to murmur a bitty old song to make their walk a little less creepy 'The road goes ever on and on, down from the road where it began....' 
She chuckled a little bit too when he said what else was new. He was right. Recently it seemed like they always were getting lost perhaps not exactly on purpose or anything. It wasn't like they were trying to find secret hiding places or anything or going to the Room of Requirement to
snog. Her cheeks turned redder at that thought that Ava had put in her mind a few nights ago.
But anyway... They were lost at the moment, right? She nodded, listening to Ace as he spoke about them not being entirely lost. Maybe the clearing was close by... but she couldn't' help but feel....Lost. Well not entirely lost because there was a fellow housemate with a girl down the way. OOh... That was Anakin. She raised her eyebrows for a moment and then smirked, wondering if those two were having a secret meet up or something? Whatever was going on. They seemed cute.
But yes, she wasn't alone... Those two were there and she was here with Ace. Vi eagerly took his hand when he held his out for hers. "
You're right. It's an adventure..." In kind of a creepy place but still an adventure. And they had each other so it wasn't going to be horrible. It wasn't like they were going to find some dark wizard down here or something... When he began murmuring something, her eyebrows raised because she only caught a few words here and there but she was able to piece it together. Was that from
The Hobbit or
The Fellowship of the Ring...? "
Now far ahead the road has gone...And I must follow, if I can."
