If you feel like you're being followed today, go inside as soon as possible.

Don't let your guard slip. Stay armed.

Avoid the woods.

Those things have been here before and they're not as harmless as they look.

[ And Tyr will be hiding out in the beach house with his staff. It doesn't exactly feel like paranoia after what happened last time he saw slenderman. ]

[pratful]

I will, now that I know he's gone

[ but he should've known it might have been stretching things to hope Tyr knew who Karl was. ]

Not much. He seems to be making trouble for a girl Charlie picked up. And he hurt Charlie.

[ which makes it all the more unsettling that Merlin was gone. ]

[blackshadow]

[ Tyr doesn't know, but he wants to. He's begun to see just minding his own business isn't always the best idea here. ]

So you're worried he might be even more dangerous than you saw?

If you need any backup dealing with him, contact me.

[pratful]

Thanks, but I'm sure I can handle it. [ false bravado, sure, but it's the only way he knows how to act. ]

[blackshadow]

[ Tyr knows your type, Arthur... ]

It'd be foolish to turn down help just because you think so. You don't know much about this Karl. You won't really know how strong he is until the two of you fight.

[pratful]

[ ... he hates typcasating unless he's the one doing it ]

Don't worry. I've gone up against my fair share of impossible creatures. What research can be done, will be done. [ the issue at hand is simply, will it be enough. ]

[blackshadow]

[ At least it's a common type Tyr was like this once... ]

Is this really about research to you?

[pratful]

It's about knowing my enemy.

[ and he's just going to leave it at that. Until Charlie's safe and out of the hospital. He can't do more then that. He had responsibilities. ]

[blackshadow]

You should know that before you rush in.

[ Reckless, reckless, reckless. ]
