Just Outside The Main Gate, Saturday Morning

[bitchprince]

Much like the previous day, Saturday found Arthur venturing back down to the barricade. It was early, the sunlight was yet shallow and leaning towards overcast, and only the first warbles of birds became evident as he slogged at the thing.

At least it had remained intact overnight. He was in full armor yet again, with shamelessly modded Merlin at his side. He'd stayed quiet opposite the boy most of the time, barring talk of strategy. The magic was something that'd have to be discussed again if they managed to survive this whole mess.

He climbed up so he could take a quick survey of the town. Watching the still forms lumber about, he felt a chill settling in his bones. There was only one word he could use to describe it.

"Bugger," he muttered, succinctly, and ran a hand through his hair. Sometimes, he had a knack for brevity.

"She-Ra, I'm a friend of Adora. She's mentioned you and I thought I would check in, seeing you here." Her standby save never failed back home, but that didn't mean it had to in Fandom.

"Really? She talked about me? Where is she? She didn't get hurt, did she?" Dinah asked, suddenly realizing she hadn't seen Adora around and feeling a moment's panic, too many people gone and chomped already.

Also, flying horse. How cool was that?

"Adora is safe," She-Ra assured her. "I believe she was headed to check on fortifications at the alternate gate. She's much more capable than she looks, but she was certainly worried about the safety of you and her other friends."

"Oh! Okay. That's good, I was going to head over there in a while," Dinah said in relief. "Arthur told me to go over there, he's sort of ... in charge, I guess." She shrugged, because you really couldn't deny he was good at this. Hopefully that was okay with other people. "Thanks for coming to help. That's really great of you." She smiled shyly at the horse. "And you can get around and see what's going on out there, awesome."

Of course, when Dinah made it over there, Adora would not be, nor would she have been in the area.

"I've been spending most of my time in town, trying to stop as many of the zombies as possible from creating more of their kind from our friends. Have you managed to stay out of the fray so far?"

"Sort of? I had to fight some Wednesday night, they attacked my friend Priestly. We ran into a bunch of them on Monday on the Gun Club trip. And we ran away from some on Thursday, coming back from Rehearsal--"

Yeah, that'd be a no.
