Masako was quite surprised to discover that the first instinct of the other girl arriving on the scene was not to join her in offering aid to Shadowrender, but instead to smoosh herself into Chantilly's mane. Masako gave out a light chuckle at the spectacle. The horse was momentarily spooked to be grabbed so suddenly, but was otherwise unconcerned by it's newly found accessory. Of more concern was the state of Shadowrender, who, while having clearly healed from any flesh wounds she sustained, was still in less than stellar condition. She seemed determined to act as though there was nothing wrong, perhaps out of some sense of pride or the other. Masako could appreciate the sentiment, however she certainly wasn't about to turn away. The little girl's fairy was quick to speak aloud almost exactly what Masako was thinking.

[b]"I wholeheartedly agree."[/b] Masako followed up on the fairy's words. [b]"You may not be on death's door, but something left you in this state, and we're here to offer assistance against it."[/b] If worst came to worst and Shadowrender was determined to turn them away, Masako was considering following up on whatever lurked in this territory herself. She wasn't so sure about involving the little girl, however, as while she had no inkling as to her magical potential, she was still such a young wee thing, and apparently easily distracted by horses.

Lutin for one was not involving herself in the proceedings. She didn't entirely care as to whether Shadowrender opened up to them, but she was silently expressing doubts as to whether this was something Masako should be involved in. She was not some storied fighter yet, and whatever the threat was here, she wasn't sure if she could handle it alone. She was going to simply watch until this exchange was over, however.
