02 - Trials of a King

[prince-stupid.livejournal.com]

[Here is Ragnar, reeking of gasoline and oil, his hair matted with sticks, his paw bleeding freely again. He has several new cuts on his face, and the pads of his paws look raw.

His expression is one of furious pride.]

I have done it!

[And he falls over.]

[...Hei is going to have to just start carrying around a first-aid kit.]

Ragnar? What in the world...? [Crouches beside him.]

[prince-stupid.livejournal.com]

[Blinks solemnly up at Hei from his position on his side.] There is much in the world. This is an unfortunately non-specific question.

[contract_star]

Yes, it kind of is. Hold on--I'll get bandages. [Disappears and reappears with the usual stuff. He starts cleaning off Rags's injuries.]

How did all this happen?

[prince-stupid.livejournal.com]

Well. I needed to open the cages, you see.

[contract_star]

[Trims some of the fur away so he can start bandaging THERE YOU HAPPY?]

All this happened because you were breaking out of the cages?

[prince-stupid.livejournal.com]

[YES, THANK YOU. He lays quite still.] Yes. They were stacked rather high, you see.

[contract_star]

[\o/ Finishes with the bandaging and sits back.] There we go. Same thing as before, though--they might get itchy, but try not to scratch at them.

So, you opened all the cages. You let all the cats out?

[prince-stupid.livejournal.com]

Indeed. It would not do to leave any trapped.

[contract_star]

[Smiles.] No, I suppose it wouldn't. Well done, then.

[Aww, hurt kitty! That it is talking does not surprise him anymore] You're hurt!

[prince-stupid.livejournal.com]

I am indeed. [Laying on his side and looking up at Shun.]

[shunofandromeda.livejournal.com]

[Kneels next to Ragnar] Here, let me see. [He's never tried to heal a cat before but he figures the principals are the same and since he started learning by fusing rocks, it should work] What happened to you?

[prince-stupid.livejournal.com]

I freed the other cats from their cages. Now I must find a way out of the van.

[swanseer.livejournal.com]

[Juni likes cats, probably a lot more then people so thus she is more concerned] Oh! Are you okay?

[prince-stupid.livejournal.com]

Indeed. I am, I think, more tired than injured.

[swanseer.livejournal.com]

Oh, good.

What happened?

[prince-stupid.livejournal.com]

I freed the cats from their cages.

[swanseer.livejournal.com]

They were in cages? Why?

[prince-stupid.livejournal.com]

They were being transported.

[swanseer.livejournal.com]

Againt their will I'd suppose?

[only-a-pup.livejournal.com]

[Toboe approaches in his human form, looking very worried] Ragnar, are you ok?

[prince-stupid.livejournal.com]

Yes, I am in no great pain.

[only-a-pup.livejournal.com]

You're hurt though!

[prince-stupid.livejournal.com]

In truth, it is not so bad a wound. I am quite tired, however.

[only-a-pup.livejournal.com]

Is there anything you need, anything you want?

[prince-stupid.livejournal.com]

No, I should in fact return there soon. We are still in the van, you see. I must discover a way to remedy this.

[only-a-pup.livejournal.com]

How are you going to do that?
