Hey everyone, be careful when you go out. It looks like

[There's a spattered line of ink here like the journal was knocked aside.]

Rampaging furniture. Not deadly, but they charge you an

[Another spattered line.]

They're pretty angular if they hit you. Just try not to go out alone if you're smaller than five feet and can't run fast.

[There's an inky imprint that looks kind of like the outline of a ruler smack.]

Need help, Car? I c'n prolly knock 'em around.

[feathered-earth.livejournal.com]

I wouldn't say no!

[beat-da-button.livejournal.com]

Need help now?

[There's a bit of a tear in the page here.]

Sure section 2

sure!

[beat-da-button.livejournal.com]

On my way.

[And so Skulls starts barreling through the Tree, knocking desks out of the way and helping the smaller people get away from the crazy things.

What? Like he was gonna let them get desk'd.]

Yo, Cara, where you at?

Hey, Skulls!

[She's busy at work. Turns out a spear is a pretty good way to stop them and get them on their backs. There are a few flipped ones scattered around, and she's actively looking for more to put them out of commission.]

Yo!

[And he barrels through more desks to get over to her]

'sup?

[feathered-earth.livejournal.com]

These.

[She grins as she levers another one onto its back, metal legs flailing.]

Just watch out f--ow!

[She smacks aside a ruler that smacked her on the wrist. Blasted things.]

Re: quicklog

[beat-da-button.livejournal.com]

Wha--OW!

[One of the rulers got Skulls. He kicked the desk]

So, where were ya headin' when dese things went batshit, yo?

Re: quicklog

[feathered-earth.livejournal.com]

Down to the marketplace.

[There's a weird galloping noise as another desk tries to run her down, but she gets it under the edge with her spearshaft and flips it over deftly.]

They're really not so bad once you get the hang of it!

Re: quicklog

[beat-da-button.livejournal.com]

Kinda!

[He flips one over--ooh hey, this one has colored pencils! He takes the box, then grabs Cara's arm. Gently]

Count'a three, we run?

[misterbluesky.livejournal.com]

...attacking furniture?

I wonder why I'm surprised anymore.

[feathered-earth.livejournal.com]

Well at least they're not as dangerous as the harpies. Just aggravating.

[lemonshine.livejournal.com]

I guess I'm house bound then.

Are you okay Cara?

[feathered-earth.livejournal.com]

If you can dodge them and flip 'em over you'll be okay.

Yeah, I'll probably have some bruises tomorrow though.

[lemonshine.livejournal.com]

I've been watching people getting knocked around by them all day and it's probably better if I'm not out there...

Although I am kinda tempted to lay out a trap for the stupid things...

I wonder...

[feathered-earth.livejournal.com]

I say give it a go!

[smokesordie.livejournal.com]

They stop if you flip 'em.

[feathered-earth.livejournal.com]

Yep!

[smokesordie.livejournal.com]

Watch out for the spanking rulers though.

Yeah... That wasn't a joke.

[feathered-earth.livejournal.com]

Yeah, found out already.

[esoteric_rose.livejournal.com]

Heh. Need someone to come down?

(He's oddly excited about this.)

she's having fun too, but for different reasons

[feathered-earth.livejournal.com]

I think Skulls and I will be fine, but thanks!

[blue-shields.livejournal.com]

Give me a shout- via writing or otherwise- if you need me and my shields.

[feathered-earth.livejournal.com]

Will do! Fine for now though.
