I'll bring her along with me some time; usually I keep her in the cabins while she sleeps, but she needs plenty of exercise, too.
[A good Tiger Mom. Though uh, he turns and knits his brows at her first reply, a couple of chairs gripped in his hands.]
Monsters, huh... and you had no way to defend yourselves if shit went south?
[At least Grimm had powers to fall back on, and the camp has powers as well. So really, he feels like the scales are still even enough to warrant a "productive" game.]
[ she doesn't miss a beat in answering the questions, grabbing a couple of chairs of her own to add to what he's got. ]
Most of the time? No. Once we'd been there for longer, some people managed to obtain some items that could have helped, but for the most part anyone who was attacked by a monster would have been easily overwhelmed. There were weapons there, of course, but...
[ agni is probably the only person in the mansion who came out of not one but two monster encounters not-dead, huh, and even he needed several items to come out of the second encounter alive. ]
It seemed your best chances were trying to delay until the sunrise, somehow, or hoping the monster would be distracted by a different victim.
[Well. Damn. His eyebrows hike up his forehead at her recollection. Not to say this is the pity olympics, but Grimm didn't have quite the same level of ... danger to it. Not in this way.]
Shit, no wonder you guys from the mansion are paranoid.
[Offering her an apologetic grin as he finally pushes the first of many chairs in place, only wincing slightly when the movement rubs his skin against all of those goddamn knives in his shirt]
But you were quick to point out the similarities of the camp to your mansion, and adjust accordingly.
[So "Paranoid" wasn't the best word on his part... more like "well shit, here we go again" mentality at its finest]
Well, just let us know if one of us starts acting strange. We'll try to keep each other in line or verify if someone's particularly out of character, especially with the powers here...
[ She does send him a quick glance when he winces. You good there, Sanji? Not going to take a moment to unknife yourself? But she is also not going to say anything about it, still, so you do you, my guy.
Hmmm, let's start trying to fold up one of those tables and bring them over... ]
Still, that's just pattern recognition. And I think we're all pretty much just fresh out of whatever place we were stuck at before this happened, so it's not too much of a leap to fall back into our previous habits?
A squad shrouded in mystery. ▓▓▓▓▒ has met them once, and others can only guess at the members' identities from rumors. Members of the squad all have advanced AI and high capacity for independent operation. Rumor has it that Squad 404 usually deals with ░▓▒▓▓▓▒▓▓▒▒▒░░
