[ The person crying about Dickory glares at Lup. Handmaidens are so fucking rude.
But if they look, much much further down the hall, they'll see large doors that are probably the front entrance. It won't bring them to exactly where the other two are, but it would at least take them outside. ]
[ she says, a little faintly. she pauses with him for the moment - she still... has a knife sticking out of her. she's got blood just running down her front. ]
I'll make it? I'll make it. Are you okay? She got you good. How's your hit points looking, I'm betting you're not much better off than me.
[ The things that come out of her mouth sometimes...
Alphinaud exhales deeply, slumping back against the wall. Now that he has a moment, he has to squeeze his eyes shut. It hurts—it hurts so much, a pain unlike any he's felt before. But: ]
[ she looks concerned. she coughs a little, and then: ]
I'd, uh - I'd do the thing where I rip the bottom of my dress to come up with bandages to wrap your wounds, but I really don't think I could do it. Rip my dress, I mean.
[ her arm is pretty useless. did she ever pick up her sword? hm. ]
Thankfully, it's hard to miss a flying fucking carriage so it's easy to scramble out of the way, but to do that when you're already hurting. Well, Alphinaud kind of falls out of the way more than anything, attempting to stifle a pained hiss. ]
[ Sometimes a carriage just crashed into the front door of a castle. It's fine.
From a distance, they can see the blue being that tossed it. Jeanne and Clementine are nowhere to be seen, since they already ran to the garden which is not viewable from these two's current position. ]
[ Depending on which direction they look, there's a few things. There a couple of buildings towards the left that look like parts of the castle. To the right, are some stables. The being is closer to the stables, and also there's a dinosaur coming into view to charge at it. Lup will see that it is not hers. ]
Do - we want to go towards the big monster? [ aaaaaaa ]
Okay, I guess, whatever. [ and she makes her way in that direction, keeping distance from the being and straying towards the buildings. stumbles, mostly. haha, look at that blood trail. ]
They make it to the stables, and from there they can see that there's more stuff towards the back of the castle. But while they're noticing that, the being is also noticing them.
It starts heading straight to them, with the dinosaur ripping at it as it moves. ]
[ From somewhere in his robes, another tiny microraptor peeks its head out at the sight (and sound) of its fellow microraptor attempting to rip the hell out of this weird monster thing, and crawls up upon Alphinaud's shoulder. With its tiny... dinosaur noises, it almost seems to hint it wants to help—or maybe it is just a dinosaur who wants to hunt shit. Who knows.
Either way, Alphinaud is not gonna say no in the face of a huge thing probably wanting to harm them, so. ]

And no time to deal with our own wounds, first.

lup is just on the floor. she doesn't want to get up, she didn't sign up for this. ]
Where the fuck did my dinosaur go? [ wheeze ] Are we going to have to fight that?
[ hold on she's going to pick herself up... or try. ]
no subject
They will also get a nice view of it picking up another carriage, and also throwing it at the castle. ]
no subject
Alphinaud manages to push himself back on his feet. ]
Away from the castle!
[ We gotta go man, we gotta go. While he's making sure they're out of harm's way, he scowls at the blue thing in the distance. ]
We would be best to avoid coming close, for we have not the means to challenge it head-on. There is still the matter of the king.
[ So, looking at their surroundings, what's immediately nearby? Anything that hints where one could flee to next? ]

We need to find that sucker. It's the only thing I can think to do? [ what is around here ]

lup watches it go, almost amused by how gungho it is. and then she nyooms off towards the back of the castle. what can she get into back here? ]
no subject
Lup will notice that, far off in the distance, there's a garden! Wow. That hasn't been mentioned at all yet in this post! ]
no subject
With the dinos unleashed Alphinaud will hurry out of the way, following behind Lup. Where we goin! ]

Hey - hey, how you doing? Still good? [ she's gasping a bit here but it's fine. ]
