[The crow on his shoulder looks from Hansa, to Chiron, and then back...and then flies over, suddenly, to Chiron's shoulder. She squawks, beak nibbling a bit over some of his bangs.]
[Hansa barks out a laugh.]
...Haha, I think she's worried about you, too. But I won't back down. I'll make sure to keep you out of trouble, legs and bandages and all.
[Aw, bird! Chiron submits himself to her fussing without complaint, smiling all the while, eventually reaching up to scratch under her beak]
Neither of you need to worry; I will do my utmost not to cause trouble.
[That, at least, he sounds serious about, and his deer resolutely gets to her legs, wandering close to Hansa until she's able to nuzzle his hand with her nose.]
While I cannot say I expect to find anything of particular note, I realized I would rather see for myself than let the children carry on -- especially if there is danger inside.
Mmmhmm. Hey, if you need someone to bridal carry you out if you decide to fully break that leg because you're not careful, I don't know if I'm merciful enough to volunteer.

[The crow burbles, pleased, as she's stroked, leaning her head back to allow Chiron more room.]
I can agree with that. Besides...if there's danger, who better to deal with it than you and I?

His stupid jock is showing]

NEARLY CHOKES ON A LAUGH]
-- Duly noted.
I will be careful.
[Chiron will promise if only to spare Hansa having to carry all of...
... wait]
Would carrying me be a problem...? Though I understand if you simply do not want to.

There is a lot of horse back there.]
I see... yes, that would be a problem for you.

[GREAT. Just heaving a little sigh.]
Anyways, lets head over to the maze. I'll...keep you out of trouble. Ha. Stick by me, okay?
no subject
[that had been the original plan since the beginning but the telltale signs of worry creep into his expression all the same.
Something feels strange.]
Are you certain it is no trouble?
no subject
If its me and you...not at all.

I'll take you at your word then.
