250 - Fear Itself Mingle
[ Today is a day where most would be at risk of oversleeping.The dome lies dark like in the dead of night. The sun hasn’t risen today, streetlights casting a dull yellow glow and occasionally flickering out into nothing, only to spark back to life a moment later. There is no electric flicker from the kiosk. The Wardens are still. The wardens are silent.

The dome isn’t silent. There is a rustling of leaves, a snapping of twigs. Claws, scraping against concrete. The inhuman screech of an animal in peril, an animal hunting, an animal hunted. A screech that promises sharp claws and sharper teeth and blood.

The dome isn’t still either. There is something moving, thick as a shadow, tangible as a chill down your spine. Something that doesn’t belong here, something that snuck in when no one was looking. A boogeyman under the bed. A ghost in the closet. A will o’ the wisp, blinking in and out of existence under the flickering streetlights. Whatever it is it’s moving, leaving a trail of cold, dead fear wherever it passes. Something dark. A shadow so pitch black that it blots out the very lights in your heart, dragging your fears out screaming and kicking, reducing even the strongest, toughest man to a blubbering baby.

Perhaps best to stay in bed today, Marina. ]

Duo took the offered cube and cautiously approached the stall door. He held out his hand and carefully made some clicking noises like Mal had. The horse was hesitant, like the other one, but Duo waited, not moving to avoid spooking it further. It took the cube, and Duo made a face at the sensation of the fuzzy lips working to pick it up from his palm. Once the horse pulled back, he laughed a little and rubbed his hands together.

"That felt funny."

Mal grinned. "See, it ain't that bad."

He continued down the line, calming the horses that seemed nervous, handing out sugar to all of them. It didn't take long. As each horse calmed down, it affected the whole of the stables.

Once that was done and Serenity was back in her stall, Mal looked around and found a few bales of hay to sit on. "Sounds quiet out there right now," he commented.

	"Nah." Duo waved it off. He wasn't nervous! See? Totally cool with all of it. Really. He wandered over, helping with the rest of them now that he was comfortable with it, and then flopped down on one of the other bales. "Yeah, it does." He listened. "Maybe it'll stay that way for the rest of the night." Not likely, but one could be hopeful... (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Let's hope. [Mal leaned against a post and closed his eyes.] I'm sure we'll either hear otherwise mayhaps the wardens will be back. Either way, we seem safe enough in here. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[Duo blinked, wondering how Mal could sleep at a time like this, but his guerilla fighting experience kicked in. Take what sleep you could get when you could get it. He knew he'd wake up if something weird started happening, so he leaned back and shifted around until he was comfortable before closing his own eyes.] Yeah. For now. I'll take it.
