Kate's return has worried Will, he knows her world has great and complicated troubles and he hates that there's only so much he can do.

So he's outside at the range firing arrow after arrow into the targets, its restful to hear the thunk, thunk of arrow into straw.

Later perhaps he'll move to the peals but for now, its arrow after arrow as he works to keep his temper in check.

"He got killed again, and Charlie was hurt. By Urquhart."

[will_scarlett]

"Do ye know why?"

[guppy_sandhu]

"Not for certain. Possibly for a bounty."

[will_scarlett]

"Bloody 'ell."

[guppy_sandhu]

"He's in the cells, and Teja came back. But yeah."

Looking up at Will. "I can't help but feel slightly responsible for not being able to warn everyone how insane he was."

[will_scarlett]

"Tis a 'ard thing cause 'e would brag 'bout what 'e does just ne'er thought 'e'd be stupid 'nough to 'urt someone 'ere."

[guppy_sandhu]

"Maybe he didn't know that he'd get caught."

[will_scarlett]

"Aye, 'is sort ne'er think they will."

[guppy_sandhu]

"I'm worried he's going to come back for me once he's out." Guppy says. "I helped put him away."

[will_scarlett]

"If 'e does, 'e'll just go back in."

[guppy_sandhu]

"I'd rather not die in the process."

[will_scarlett]

"We'll na let ye die, Guppy."

[guppy_sandhu]

"Thank you Will." Guppy says.

"Maybe I should go and see him in the cells, see how aggressive he's feeling towards me. I had to shoot him."

He gets the paninis off the waitrat and passes Will his. He picks at his own, not that hungry.

Will leans over and hugs Guppy,

"Will get it sorted."

[guppy_sandhu]

Guppy hugs back.

"I can't help it, this guy makes my stomach go all wobbly. What if Teja or Charlie had died for good? It would be because I didn't act to get Urquhart locked up for insanity sooner."

[will_scarlett]

"Nay, it would 'ave been cause Urquhart 'urt 'em."

[guppy_sandhu]

"Yes, but I still wish we'd managed to stop him earlier."

[will_scarlett]

"Canna think too much 'bout the past, 'ave to move forward."

[guppy_sandhu]

"Yeah, I guess you're right. No idea how we're going to keep him from killing again once he's out though. I've asked Malcolm to look in on him."

[will_scarlett]

"Na sure either just 'ave to keep tryin'."

[guppy_sandhu]

Guppy nods and rubs his forehead.

"Sorry to stress out on you."

[will_scarlett]

"Na worries, trip will do us all good."

[guppy_sandhu]

"Yeah. Teja says Urquhart should be in at least a month, which should give me time to recover."

[will_scarlett]

"Aye, an just steer clear o''im."

[guppy_sandhu]

"I'll try and let Malcolm handle his case as much as possible."

He picks at the panini, making himself eat it. Frogspawn would be cross if she knew he was being neglectful of food.
