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.

"Probably?" Dinah said. "Triela's coming with me and that gate's a lot smaller, but if this place is secure...."

Chad nodded a little. "Not sure we're really going to be completely secure for a while," he admitted. "But you got your phone on you? You guys need anything, you call. I can clear out a good deal of these quickly with this arm."

"I will," Dinah, promised, relieved to have back-up ready and able to go. "You and Tony both." She gave him the brightest smile she could, under the circumstances. "You won't get hurt, right? You and Teddy? You'll be careful?"

"I'll be careful," Chad nodded, "if you be careful, too."
