The ignorant stranger look forward and screamed as soon as he saw the thing emerge from the ground. He slipped and landed straight on his booty. {Not another hallucination!} he thought. (It's real Jonathan.Feeling his skin protest against the feathers sprouting, he rolled out of the way of the incoming spike and stumbled towards Athena.

Athena picked up the pace as she reached for the charm on her necklace, detaching it with another flash of light and holding the real spear and shield just seconds later. She got between the stranger and the tentacle and raised her shield to block a blow. The force of the blow shoved her back a bit before she swung with her weapon, leaving a gash on it and staining the golden tip of her spear with dark blood. The tentacle let out a low, pained growl. 

("I WARNED YOU ABOUT TENTACLES, BRO!

I TOLD YOU DOG!")

Swinging his arm-blade, Wy reaches for Athena and starts fighting the tentacle. The stranger made him waste some time, he needed a few moments to realize what was happening.

Side by side, Wy and Athena strike on the tentacle.

Athena tensed at Wy being so close. She had been working on shoving the fear into the back of her mind, but it was hard to ignore when they were side by side. Despite this, she forced herself to swing again, albeit not as gracefully, and it interrupted another attack from the tentacle. It was close to death by this point.

"Aaah!"

Seeing how the nearly-dead tentacle was still standing, preparing to swing on Athena, Wy leaps and attaches at it with both arms and legs and bites it, in a feline manner, opening a wound right before the spike, which was then dropped on the ground.

"Ah ah!"

The last two strikes were enough to fell the monster. It let out a final cry of pain before the spikeless tentacle flopped to the ground, dark blood staining the mud. Athena put her gear away before picking up the detached spiky end and swinging it around aimlessly.

"Huh. This would make a decent weapon, but I already have my trusty spear," she examined before dropping it on the ground unceremoniously. 

...

Wait a minute... was she forgetting something? Oh yeah, the shouty guy! She turned around to face him and took a few steps forward, hands casually in her jacket pockets and an easy smile on her slightly blood splattered face.

"Hi shouty guy. I'm Athena, the shadow boy is Wy, the thing you called a dandelion is Wakana and Wulfric is his pet hound. Nice to meet you!"

She extended her hand for a handshake.

"It's Crow." he corrected. "I'm sorry for my inappropriate behavior..." he pointed to his head, "I'm a bit wonky up here." (shut up and shake her hand you idiot!) Crow quickly grabs her hand and puts it back in his pocket, concealing the many black feathers on it. The man eyed the group for a moment then awkwardly looked to the mud beneath him.

Hm, she thought she felt something weird on his hand, but she couldn't figure out what it was, so it was dismissed.

"Well, Crow, we aren't the only people around here. There's a camp back over in that direction somewhere." she said while motioning in the general direction of the wormwhole, "We're kinda banding up to survive or something. You can come with and ask Wilson if you can hang around, or keep walking around and getting almost killed by tentacles and stuffs."

"Yup. And if you think that's weird, there's a giant talking tree back at camp."

Athena's eyes darted to Wy for a split second as the urg to quiver returned at his close proximity. She kept her relaxed expression and demeanor though, placing her hand back in her pocket so she could let them shake without anyone noticing.

(Don't you realize you're holding them up? Make up your mind you worthless piece of crap!) Crow looks up at Athena and recognizes her reaction. "I know what you're doing with your hand." he studies her for a moment with a blank face and simply turns around to follow Wy. (I like trees)

Worry and guilt etched itself across her face as both Wy and Crow noticed her reaction and walked off without her. A knot formed in her stomach. Wy still thought she hated him. She wished she could explain that it wasn't anything he did, that it was just the material he was made of and she couldn't help it. Sighing, she slowly walked after them, but not actually joining them.

(Wait, Wy is made up of parasites now? One: that's gross, and Two: that's going to bring up some complications with how Athena has been reacting to him unless they are made of nightmare fuel or something.

 

Also, 

 

 

Abilities/Disabilities: His schizophrenia often gives him guidance when he can't think for him self. Be it good or bad. He was insane before he entered the Don't Starve world so he is used to crazy things happening to him, meaning his sanity doesn't go down as easily. As his sanity lowers, feathers start to grow on him and when he reaches full insanity he has turned unto a large, bestial bird creature. At this point, his schizophrenic side of his brain has full control over him. It takes a lot of pushing to get this to happen so if it does it's because someone tried to make it.
