"Are they really that bad?" The Balladeer agrees with Greta that they should be able to get Johnny out of there. He isn't that wrapped up. Johnny isn't exactly his favorite person in the city, but Greta seems to like him, so they can't just abandon him here. Were they alone...well, that'd be a little different, but he thinks he probably wouldn't ditch him then either.

As Greta goes after the vines, he steps forward as well, watching her work for a moment before circling to pluck at another likely-looking snare. "We won't even try. If it works, we can stay here and not go get some tools." He figures it won't take too long to see if this is going to work out or not. From there, they can either get him out altogether or get out of these woods already and try to regroup. If nothing else, someone's going to have to bring him some food and water if these curses really DO last a few days.
