[Time to find Archer a new room since redacted hates horses.
Through true to form, he's not bothered in the slightest by this setback, instead remaining in calm spirits as he and Alex make their way further into the forest. It envelopes the town on all sides except the north, he realizes, and seeing as that is where the river flows...]
Near the riverbeds should be an ideal place, in case I need water.
[Muttered thoughtfully out-loud, a hand on his hip. He trots at a slow, controlled pace so as not to lose his companion, though his stride is... large...
He sincerely apologizes if Alex is tired of the walking]

[ redacted hates horses. time to cancel them on the internet.
the walking's been fine so far. she's just had to keep a close eye on her feet and the path ahead of here to make sure she didn't step on something loose or too uneven, and go flying.
she hasn't absolutely eaten dirt yet, so that's good, right? ]
But with something to use as the framework for a shelter? [ hmmm. time to look for some fallen trees... ]

If there are enough fallen logs, I can bind them together and create a small shack.
[And they have a half-horse on their side so moving them won't be an issue, either.]
Even if there's nothing to use, so long as I can keep any potential rain off me, I'll be fine.
[So perhaps just a sturdy-looking tree will suffice]

You'd need rope for that... I wonder if there's anything in the souvenir shop that would work. It's not like they just sell rope normally.
[ hmmmm. lanyards? maybe? do you want a shack made of fallen trees and lanyards, archer? ]
[ hmmmm. lanyards? maybe? do you want a shack made of fallen trees and lanyards, archer? ]
Not necessarily. Reinforced bark is a decent substitute for rope if there's none to be found.
[Welcome to Sensei's Nature class, 101. You can make anything if you put your mind to it.]
-- Though rope would be preferable so I don't spend too much time having to build the materials.

Unless it's themed rope... it'd probably not in the Emporium. Oh, but they do sell t-shirts, and maybe themed ties? I'd need to take another look.
The material could act as a rope?

... I would need to check the longevity of those materials, though in theory, yes... those materials could act as rope.
[He's not gonna detract points for being creative. Any little thing could help.]
Though by tie, do you mean...
[he makes a gesture around his neck. Them fancy ties that people like to wear for some strange reason? Fashion is weird.]

[ she claps at the charades. nicely communicated. ]
Yes, those. Novelty ones seem to be popular for some reason? A souvenir shop might have some. They're longish, and you could knot a few of them together.

Ah, yes -- those. I wore one once.
[ONCE. Like it's some great novelty to wear a tie. This ye olde.]
Well, there's no harm in using them to our advantage. I somehow doubt we'll need to fight anyone over them.

Somehow that's a bit difficult to imagine.
[ amazing. ]
Probably not. Most people seemed to be grabbing L*go kits and sunglasses, so if we're quick we could get more of the material based items.

[alskdjajlsfaf he gives a good natured chuckle because fair? That's fair.]
I didn't wear it with this outfit. There was a suit involved as well.

[ before she can really stop herself, her eyes flicker at the uh. horse half of chiron. ]
A suit.
... How did, um. How did that work...?

Oh, it fit rather nicely. I enjoyed the experience.

[ the forest is... well. maybe a little too close to the heart of everything that happened this weekend, but she's hoping that people might be avoiding it for now.
so the forest is where alex has wandered for the moment, looking for a little quiet. ]

[Smiling in amusement]
I had human legs at the time, if that helps you to imagine it.

[It's... mostly quiet in the forest, though Alex will hear a drum and a thump of an arrow as it whizzes by into a nearby tree trunk.
The offender is one centaur who slowly lowers his bow, eyes on his target before his shoulders sag into place. It was a bullseye, a single leaf now split in the middle by the arrowhead -- but he doesn't look particularly impressed or moved by his accomplishment.
His expression will at least pick up when he sees her, however.]

Hello, Miss Alex.
[ she takes a moment to stare at the arrow sticking out of the tree trunk -- she'd give him a 10/10 if anyone here was in the mood for scoring anything, honestly -- and then turns her head to look at the area where he's stood. ]
Hello, Archer.
Stress relief?
Hello, Archer.
Stress relief?
I suppose.
[It doesn't feel like it, exactly, but he's focused and using energy, and that will have to do.]
I hope you are well, even after what we witnessed.

But conveniently when you needed to wear a suit, you just happened to grow legs?

... Yes.
[Trotting over to where his arrow is, and plucking it out of the tree. It's sturdily made, and so managed to survive without cracking]
That would make two of us.
