[ The boy who appears on the screen looks to be very far up in the air, right around he gathering of storm clouds, and on the move. Occasionally, a flash of gold metal can be seen in the video. He looks a little bit frazzled and a lot excited with a dash of terror. ]

Hey guys! I think it's time to saddle the wagons and circle the horses or whatever that saying is. There's monsters that seriously need to be made into monster mash! And I kind of miss the snow if this is the alternative.

[ There's a roar and a creak of metal before an entirely different sort of roar sounds. An arrow whizzes past Leo's face, just barely missing him. ]

Uh, this mostly for Percy & Annabeth (hi Annabeth!) but I'm multitasking a lot of things right now and maybe this can kind of be a warning that if you can't or won't fight, maybe you should stay inside! And don't worry, Percy, Festus and me, and maybe others, we've totally got this under control!

[ There's a crooked smile and another arrow whizzes through Leo's wayward curls just over his head before the feed cuts out to the sound of another roar. ]


Text to Sophie:
Uh... you safe? Because you need to stay safe and there's bad stuff going on outside.

[ The good news is that Festus's metal claws have punctured the beasts' wings enough that it can't fly away from Laura. The bad news is that it's hard to play crowd control when you're on top of a giant metal dragon flying the skies. So any spectators are going to have to use their brains and run.

Although, Leo doesn't see many people milling about. Most have holed up inside, thank the gods.

Leo both is and isn't surprised to see her heal so quickly. He likes people with super powers. That means he doesn't have to worry about them so much. ]

It's usually the head or the heart! Sometimes hearts and heads, although not in this case. You can do it! I'm gonna get another one!

[ Leo and Festus are flying upward and upward toward the hoard of beasts. Festus's fire can burn their thin wings off but that would send a number of them tumbling to the ground. He needs to wait and see what happens when Laura finds the sweet spot. So Festus clomps another of the beasts in his metal jaws and they begin to descend again. Leo cranes his neck to check on Laura. ]

[ Laura looks up when he says he's going to get another one. She hasn't even finished off this one and she still hasn't figured out how. Is he suggesting she ought to just reach into the beast and drag out its heart? Because that feels very...villain in a fairytale to her; she's not really sure she's got the stomach for all that. ]

Killing me, here, kid...

[ That's more muttered to herself than aloud specifically for him to hear, but it's still aloud all the same. Here goes nothing...

Laura closes her eyes and wrinkles her nose as she tears further into the beast, a gag reflex being choked back when she can feel more fleshy bits catching under her claws. The beast, finally, goes still and Laura staggers back, shaking her arms in a jerking motion, sending excess blood flying off of her. ]

Gross...
