I do not... [In hindsight I should have been making a map. Oh well. 20/20 and all that.]

West-South-East seems the most circuitous. Perhaps we should start there?

Well. Not like we know where we're going, now! So why not.

Then we are agreed.

...Besides, at least the company is pleasant should we be stuck in here for a short time.

[You head west, then south, at which point it curls around to the east.

It isn't too long a distance before another crossroads appears. You could continue east, or you could go south from here, a path which immediately splits into west or east branches.]

Speak for yourself. [then, huffing:] If we knew which way we'd started from ...

[sighs.]

[pointing southwards.] This way looks the most complicated. Want to keep doing that?

Myself is the only person I may speak for. Still, I am always happy to have something of a kindred spirit to speak with. [Then, a small nod.]

The 'most complicated' strategy seems to be working thus far. Southwards seems adequate. [Starting to walk that way.]

[with a keenly distancing smile, cold and leached of anything resembling a sense of kinship or empathy.] Don't act like we're anything alike.

[walking along beside her down the path anyway.]

Perhaps we are not anymore... There is something to be said for circumstances and upbringing. Regardless, I feel that which I feel and nothing more.

Hn.

[lapsing into silence, after that, simply walking.]

[You head south.

West or east from there? Both paths look about equidistant, and it's difficult to tell whether one or both eventually turn.]

West again?

West it is. [A nod.]

[You head west.

This path doesn't turn at all before eventually coming to a halt at the end. Another dead end, it would seem.

There are more tiny golden glimmers in the hedges over here, if you want to check them out.]

Going to get curious again?

Of course. There may be a hint.

[Pardon me while I stare.]

[Glittery flowers~ so pretty~

White? White!

She's not listening...

White, wake up!

(the sound of a light thunk)

Ow! Black, what was that for?

She was worried, White. You wouldn't respond even though we both called out, several times.

...I see.

You're not saying you're weak to the flowers, are you White?

I was merely trying to make sure they were healthy.

White's weak to the flowers~

I am not!

Black, please...]

[watching Macaron.]

[on a scale of one to ten how completely lost in this reminiscence of someone else's past are you, really.]

[She has an amused smirk on her face, and seems rather fine with whatever she's seeing.]

[Maybe about a 6-7?]

[maybe she's going to let you keep getting lost in those flowers until you actually go slackjawed before she bothers to pull you out of it.]

[Thats cool--for some unfathomable reason she's trusting your judgment. Once the voices are done tho she is going to try looking away.]

[waiting to see if that even happens at all, then.]

[Are you sure you want to look away, though, Macaron? The flowers are so pretty, after all...

The voices, however, have died down to Black giggling and flying away, White grumbling and chasing after her, and Brown sighing.]

[The flowers are pretty, yes, but I live for deets and for the mission. This flower no longer has deets aside one thing... what happens if we try to gently pick it?]

[Its spell breaks when it's picked, and you're left holding this pretty flower. ...Also the fingers that picked it are now covered in a shimmery golden pollen.]

[Aha. Turning to Lace with a nod.]

It seems White has a weakness to these flowers. Black had to strike her on the head to snap her out of it.
