Solution: Trees that have hollows in them, like via an opening on one side. Works just like the cottage.

How about at the top, not easily visible from the ground? There are totally trees like that in the real world; I've seen them.

So, basically, you can put a tree around someone.

Although, I don't know why the figment couldn't be hollow, even if the real-world representation isn't. If the outside is complete and opaque, I don't see the issue.

Actually, that sounds nothing like RCs crazy argument, because RC claims you can draw no lines at all connecting two points that aren't filled in, so even the action of creating two non hollow objects is impossible to RC.

Furthermore, because Trees have any concave angles at all, according to RC, you cannot make even a single tree ever, no matter what, because objects with concave angles are disguises.

Of course, figments aren't solid, so your buddy could walk into a figment tree and hide there...
