It's not a problem! And besides, it seemed like it would be really difficult to round them all up by yourself!

[dualbladewarrior]

It's been quite difficult so far, yes. I can't say I'm enjoying this at all...

[shirleyhopeful]

But you must be so lucky, you have all the animals you want to play with you!

[about that...]

[dualbladewarrior]

... I'm afraid you're mistaken. They don't want to play, they want to escape.

[shirleyhopeful]

It can be viewed the same thing, and if we play with them...we can distract them for a bit!

[dualbladewarrior]

... I suppose there's... some truth to that. I do need to find a way to get them back to their pens. ... and get the pens repaired...

[shirleyhopeful]

Hm...I'm not good with making pens myself but I could always find someone who might be willing!

[dualbladewarrior]

That would be helpful. I did send a message out though so it's entirely possible some one will contact me, as well.

[shirleyhopeful]

But...I wouldn't mind giving it a try! That is...if you let me?

[What does that mean for Hubert? Who knows]

[dualbladewarrior]

Oh... you're more than welcome to, yes.

[shirleyhopeful]

Great a-

[oh look, now the animals got bored. Off they go on their own again!]

Ah, wait, come back! You need to go back to your pen!

[dualbladewarrior]

[sigh]

This is such a mess...

[shirleyhopeful]

I don't know how it happened but we should be able to get the animals back in their pens soon!

We just got to believe and hope for the best! [Hahaha..ha..ha...]

[dualbladewarrior]

... you seem awfully optimistic.

[shirleyhopeful]

I don't think it's a bad thing, especially when there are animals running around!

Sometimes a place would be a little lively once it a while!

[dualbladewarrior]

Lively and letting them cause damage and harass people are two completely different things.

[shirleyhopeful]

Only if we catch them quickly enough!

[And with that, Shirley looks around and off she goes to try to catch one of the sheeps running around]

Fire Ball! [She wasn't purposely aiming for the sheep but it was close enough for the animal to stop in its track]

[dualbladewarrior]

[That... isn't a bad idea at all. Properly aimed lower level attacks should get them to stop and move them in the direction they need to go in.

Hubert frowns thoughtfully for a minute before flicking his jacket back, pulling out his dual pistols and aiming them at a group of goats that was attempting to flee towards the city center.]

Aqua Bullet!

[shirleyhopeful]

[Well, Shirley wasn't expecting an attack like that. Once she finished her fire ball attack, she quickly looked over to Hilbert]

I didn't know you can do artes...

[However, she can't keep her attention on him for long as she casted another fire ball for the sheep to go in another direction.]

[dualbladewarrior]

I can. As can my friends. I find they're more common here than people realize, even if we don't share the same world...

[He keeps his focus on the animals as well, firing off pot shots at the ground to help with herding them. It's working well, so far.]

[shirleyhopeful]

Really? I thought Walter and I were the only ones who knew how to use artes!

[And with another fireball]

Looks I don't have a choice but to seek these people out!

[dualbladewarrior]

Why would you want to seek them out? Is it that important, that some of us can use artes?

[shirleyhopeful]

Yes. [She said bluntly.]

I think it's interesting that we're able to do something that I thought only my world could do. And besides, I never seen an arte like what you've done before so it would be a good way to learn from others!

[dualbladewarrior]

I'm afraid I wouldn't have much to teach you. My arts are fairly specialized towards my weapon. You might have better luck with one of my friends.

[shirleyhopeful]

That's okay, I usually use healing and magic artes anyway...is there a friend like that here?
