62 Swords in the Stone

[excalibured]

[Since horses rather require daily care, and being let out of their stalls either to graze or run about to stay healthy, this is generally the first place he visits after breakfast or lunch, depending on prior committments. He's come to recognize every single animal within the stall, and which stall should not be empty.

So the sight of a stall door

[that .... doesn't sound good sdjflksdf she's heading down there as soon as she sees this and .... she kind of slows to a stop nearby, sort of gaping]

[echivoc]

[Cross walks up from behind, looking up at the...lovely choice in tree decoration.]

Someone was busy this morning.

[yamanaka]

[o hay cross ... she's glancing back at him before looking back to this ... grossness]

You can say that again. [folds arms across her chest]This is just sick, really ...

[echivoc]

[sup ino, a hand settles on his hip as his attention goes to the horse]

Hm. The culprit wanted to make an impression with the horse.

[yamanaka]

From the sound of it, wasn't it someone's horse to begin with? Arthur's maybe ...

[echivoc]

Possibly. Either way... [yeah, he's moving to see the horse a bit closer, making sure to walk around the blood-pooled and stained grass. dnw shiny boots to be ruined!] ...the person has some semblance of strength, magic, or both. Surely hanging the horse around the neck would have been easier.

[yamanaka]

[LOL cross. you and your shiny boots. she'll take a few steps closer] I guess that's true ...

[she pauses, taking a deep breath. ugh, she wishes guts were here :( he'd know what to do .... but she closes her eyes for a moment before glancing back at cross and the horse]

Whatever the case, I think it might be a good idea to start taking some safety precautions. Something about this really ... [creeps me ouuuttt]

[guidance]

[Approaching, too.]

It's not a question of ease. It was mean to leave an impression.

[echivoc]

[shhhh don't make him ruin your hair for fun now, ino.

he nods his head towards the third voice befo-............

yeah he's going to forget what happened on Valentine's Day again kasjdfg]

I did see an entry about residents setting up watch earlier today.

[save_the_souls]

[Coming up from behind...]

Watch or not, I don't sense anything within range of this place that isn't a castle resident.

[echivoc]

And within the tree itself? [you know what he's insinuating]

[yamanaka]

[GLANCES AT ALLEN .... !!!!] Nobody reported much of anything in that regard yesterday, but ...

[guidance]

[Miria looks at Allen briefly, but she stays silent.]

I HAVE NO IDEA WHAT THE ANSWER IS AND WE CAN'T REACH JENN, SO YEAH COP-OUT

[save_the_souls]

[he activates his eye again trying to focus on the tree but with all the demons around, he frowns and furrows his brow. ]

It's hard to tell with...some of the residents around, but I don't think so.

[guidance]

So now we speculate and idle about until something else happens.

/THUMBS UP

[Allen gets a nod as Cross moves around to check out the horse's hanging partners]
