First I'm poisoned, and now...this.

[The tree castle makes a small cracking noise, and Peony wanders from room to room, stepping between cracks in the floor and scattering piled-up papers.  She wipes the dust from one window, sighing to herself.

A loud crack is heard, and the room she is in shakes, the floor collapsing under her.

She has enough time

[Klavier had been worried about Peony anyway, and so had been heading towards her place. But when he sees her hanging so high off the ground... his heart leaps into his throat. He runs underneath her, holding his arms out, ready to catch her.]

Klavier, what the hell are you doing? [despite it all, she laughs softly to herself] Oh, I got it!

[a small arte to make the air under her denser, she doesn't really float, but rather falls not so fast at him. Still, falling is falling.

Here's to hoping she doesn't accidentally crush him, because she's totally using him as a landing pad. B/ Go Peony.]

[And he's diving to catch her, and manages to do so, sliding into a pile of broken shingles. He shakes his head, and smiles at her, holding her close.] Are you all right?

Probably better than you. That was kind of fun, but...let's not do that again. [she laughs softly at him, pressing her forehead against his] Did you just drop by in the hopes that I'd be plummeting to my near death? You're so sweet~ ♥
