[If Grune should wander near the barracks at any point after that, she might notice a dark shadow appearing over the ground a few yards ahead.

Two seconds and an annoyed "gah" later, that dark shadow will turn out to be Giles, who has just been dropped in an ignominious heap out of a spot three feet in the air by a Wallmaster who is having far too much fun yanking him all over the village.

He's just...going to lay there and get his breath, thanks.]

[Her perpetually cheerful mood not even dented by her abrupt awakening, Grune indeed is wandering near the barracks. She doesn't notice the shadow, but she does notice the whole suddenly, Giles! thing.

She makes her way over to stand next to where he's lying.]

Oh, good morning, Giles!

[Giles is just going to...lay still and grumble in pain and wounded pride for a few seconds as his vision clears from the abrupt landing.

Suddenly, Grune!

He blinks in shock before sitting up abruptly. This is not a good thing, as his head is definitely aching both from the landing and the forcible transport. So Giles winces, pressing a hand to his forehead, before he manages to find his voice.]

Good morning, Grune.

...it is still morning, yes?

Getting server errors when I try to reply to your PM, so I'll be a bit.... lostinmyway July 29 2011, 00:36:29 UTC

Oh, is it?

[Still, that wince can't escape the attention of even Grune, and so she crouches down by his side.] Did you bump your head?

[Walter woke up to an unfamiliar ceiling.

...At least, he thought it was a ceiling. Instinctively wary of sudden changes to his surroundings, Walter sat up and began scooting his way off of the unfamiliar, warm mattress. His wings shudder as they scrape against the strange textures, and he uneasily looks around the rest of his room.

His normal bed has been replaced by a four-post bed of some kind, and his room ... showed no signs of anything having been moved. (Not that he had a lot to begin with.) He starts getting dressed, already in loose pants and his Ferines shirt when he becomes aware of a rustling sound.

And he dives out of his room just as his bed jumps after him.]

What the hell?!

[...Fortunately, the mimic bed can't get through the narrow door frame, so he's given a chance to recover.]

[action] since Walter is unlikely to go rescue Grune on his own, time to get Fenimore to goad him xelhes July 30 2011, 03:16:08 UTC

[But not for long, as a scream can be heard from the other end of the house, as well as squawking from her pet peepit. She's been trying to get it to live outside more now that it was about half grown, but it has been sleeping overnight occasionally. Thankfully, one of those nights was last night, as it's there to keep the bed from being able to concentrate on Fenimore.

If he follows the scream through into Fenimore's room, he'll find that it doesn't look like her room anymore, but instead like a tunnel of the Crystal Forest. But his attention is probably better focused on the similar bed that Fenimore is attempting to escape as the peepit flaps and pecks at the thing.]

[The scream has Walter back to his feet in seconds, and he gives the mimic bed a wary look before hurrying across the house and towards Fenimore's room. He pushes Fenimore's door open and openly stares at the familiar aspects of a part of the Legacy he hasn't seen in quite some time.

Then he's summoning forth his teriques, which takes on its zephyr form and slams into the offending monster.]

Fenimore! Get out of there!

[What do you think I've been trying to do? But she knows better than to grouse at the person saving her. Luckily enough, the force of the blow against the bed sends her tumbling off it. She lands and rolls, stopping just short of the edge of the tunnel.]

R...right! [Time to scramble, only partially standing, in Walter's direction. Her peepit, only about half-size still, squawks as though saying "so there" and hops after her. Its other targets on the run and no longer attacking it, the bed turns to the teriques to snap at it, though it might be a little slow.]
