Atticus walked inside and walked over to Talbot, restless about something, though he was unsure what. He sniffed him over, nudging him and circling him a few times to see what was up.Talbot almost rolled his eyes, but then caught an opportunity. He gave the lion his best "scared" eyes, and looked over at Arron.
"Nnh..." he said, acting the part like a pro.Atticus turned to face Arron, then looked back at Talbot, then back to Arron again. He wasn't sure what was going on.

"Atticus, he's... I-I don't know being c-controlled or th-that guy changed him somehow." he said. Hoping that Atticus could be of any aid at all or even help turn their friend back to his old self.

Atticus growled deeply, then approached Arron slowly. He seemed to be ready to attack, but instead he dropped a piece of cloth in front of the mechanic. It was the same colour as the man's pants, and he must have taken it off when he went by. He put his paw to it as if to say "Let's find him".
Talbot rolled his eyes, irritated at the outcome of his little act.

He picked up the cloth & pocketed it before grabbing a set of zip ties. "Y-You're coming along too." he said flatly grabbing Talbot's arms to move them behind the knight.

Atticus waited at the door, ready to follow the scent trail as soon as Arron and Talbot were ready to go.Talbot twitched, straining against the hold his father had on him, but to no avail. His arms were easily led behind his back.

The knight was quickly restrained & the mechanic hoisted him up, pushing him along. He managed to sling Talbot on his stomach, over Atticus's back. Arron's shirt was stained from the reopened wound, but would hop on the lion's back when permitted.

Once he was safely restrained, the hold on him faded, and he was allowed movement again, however restricted it was thanks to the zip-ties.
"Is this how you treat all of your friends, Arron? And here I thought I meant more to you than this," he started, sneering, "you 'treated me like your equal', before." he added, mimicking how he'd said it just a moment ago, mocking it.Atticus's ears twitched, then folded back a little. This person smelled and looked like his friend, but did not sound like his friend, and it bothered him. He growled softly as well, then lowered himself to let Arron on.

As he hopped on, Arron said "Let's j-just get y-you back to normal." The mechanic was not going to let himself become baited into fighting again.

"I don't see the point. I like myself better this way. I'm not taking anyone's crap, and I feel pretty damn good about myself. You should just leave well enough alone." the knight replied, grinning when he spotted the stain on Arron's shirt.
"Aww, does that hurt? You didn't over-exert yourself, did ya? Shame." he shook his head in a mocking manner.
"It's a real tragedy that mistress babe was taken out. She had a damn fine rack on her."Atticus grunted, annoyed. Whoever this person was, he was not his friend Talbot.

The mechanic shifted & pulled off one of his boots, & taking off the sock. He repeated with the other foot. After putting his boots back on, he balled up one of the socks & promptly shoved it into the knight's facing, aiming for his mouth. It was obvious what Arron was trying to do.

"Gmph!?" The knight uttered as the waded up sock was shoved right into his mouth. He almost gagged from the smell of it, then proceeded to try spitting it out.Atticus grunted once with approval. He'd heard just about enough out of this strange man that looked and smelled like Talbot.

That is where the other sock came into play. The mechanic wore long socks to compensate for his boots, so it stretched easily. He then pinned it together with a spare clamp from his pocket. "Th-That should keep you q-quiet..." he mumbled.

"Mm mmhhrrgg..." Talbot said, likely saying something obscene, though he'd been successfully silenced. He tried to shake the sock off with a shake of his head, but it stayed in place, causing him to groan in annoyance. The knight then tried to wriggle out of the zip-ties next, but that was also a fruitless effort, and merely made the ties dig into his skin from the struggling. Atticus had started to follow the trail once both of them were safely on his back, and he took a straight route through the forest down a dirt path. The scent trail was decently fresh, so he had no trouble following it.

It never failed. Ask her to point out any star in the sky from any location in any galaxy, she had no problem. Ask her to find her way around the anon homes after being gone for a few months? Yeah, good luck with that. She thought she walked through a back path leading to a garden. Instead, she was now near the woods. That was ok though. She enjoyed her home away from home and the insanity it sometimes brought. She never what to expect.
...Of course, that being said, there were still some things that made her double take. In this case, it was the mechanic. On a lion. The (as she had heard through the grapevine) former slave boy now knight, bound by zipties?
...
She should leave it be. Every ounce of her upbringing as a princess of the star kingdom said just let it go.
"Arron, I had no idea you liked to play that way. Kinda suspected the swing in that direction though~"
Apparently the less than class side side won out.

The knight would have put on the same innocent act he tried to use on Atticus, but the lady that just showed up was smoking hot, and he'd already lost enough dignity by being gagged by socks. Instead, he turned his head away, irritated to be c**k-blocked in such a way.Atticus stopped walking when he heard the voice nearby, and his ears perked up, ever alert.
