The Scarecrow clicked his flashlight off and on as he crossed into the main hall, taking a left and heading for the Entry Room. He leapt behind the corner for a second, so sure that he heard Depth Charge's voice float through the corridor. Of course, it wasn't that he was avoiding his roommate- it was just that he'd promised he'd be careful, and heading outside was probably one of those activities he ought not to do.

He spent the pause pulling off his boots and socks, tying the laces together into several awkward knots and tossing them across his shoulders. Knowing the soldiers and how they were about the hats, it wasn't a stretch to believe they'd chastise him if he lost his shoes. Still, it would be nice to see how the snow felt below his bare feet- he reasoned he might not get another opportunity, so it was best to try it while he could.

After another moment, it seemed Depth Charge had moved on, given that he was nowhere in sight or within earshot. Turning off his flashlight again, the Scarecrow made a quick run for the door to the Entry Room.
