[BARGING IN—

Snort.

Hm. There appears to be nothing to barge into.

He may or may not be circling in an embarrassed way now. Silly mun, sending him off on wild goose chases.]

[ineuphony]

( WHOA HORSE, YOU'RE REALLY RUDE. )

...! Whoa, hey.

[policehorse]

[HE IS PURSUING JUSTICE.

Maximus gives this sudden newcomer a slightly contrite look. Not the wrongdoer after all.]

[ineuphony]

( she smiles. )

Hey there. -- Are you lost?

[timeshare_batwoman]

[That determination looks familiar. Maximus the Bat-Steed, anyone?]

Keep looking. There are always troublemakers somewhere.

[policehorse]

[Yes, but he is a horse. This is a very important distinction.

Sideways look. So who are you?]

[timeshare_batwoman]

Name's Batwoman. Protector of Gotham City, part-time Justice Leaguer.

[techygoddess]

[Nope nothing wrong here, though this Norn is going to look at you a little puzzled because... hm you're on the tapestry she and her sisters have worked so hard on repairing after Loki's last fail]

Mind being careful when you step back? That's the lives of kings and queens after all.

[policehorse]

[Ah. Oops.

He snorts and gingerly steps back.]

[techygoddess]

It's okay. [hey look she's got a few sugar cubes! You're not the first horse she's seen barge in to the gardens after all.]

[princessespreferpink]

Maximus!

[policehorse]

[Finally a familiar face! He canters happily over and inspects you for any ruffian-caused injuries. One never knows, after all.]

[princessespreferpink]

[Thankfully she is injury free, but wearing a strange modern pink jumpsuit, so that's weird? But enough of that, time to hug Max!]

Aw, worried about me? I'm alright, it's so good to see you.

[party_hard]

Oh! Hi, there! I was just setting up for a party; you surprised me!

[Why, yes, Maximus, you did barge right into a room filled with balloons and streamers!]

[policehorse]

[It still doesn't quite stop him from looking suspicious, and giving the various party paraphernalia intent sniffs. Why are you such a strange color, strange little horse, and what is all this?]

[party_hard]

[Nothing suspicious here, just regular old balloons, streamers, and a pink pony! Pinkie giggles at the way he's sniffing at everything.]

Haven't you ever seen anypony setting up for a party before? You can help, if you want! You're so tall it would be easy for you to hang up some of these streamers!

Ooh, what's your name? I'm Pinkie Pie!

[madcuriosity]

A horse! [Alice is very excited by the big white horse.]

[policehorse]

[Whinny! Yes he is a horse. A very good and loyal horse, if he might say so himself.]

[madcuriosity]

Oh you're such a handsome boy! [Hugs are had!]

[slendy_ohcrap]

[Hello, Maximus. Slenderman doesn't deal much with animals, but decides you would be the exception here.]

[policehorse]

[Hello, mysterious person. Did you happen to see a wrongdoer pass by?

Maximus adds a stamp for emphasis. Criminals can be terribly sneaky.]

[slendy_ohcrap]

[Slenderman doesn't speak, so he approaches as though sliding on ice. As he does so, an eerie hum enters the air.]

[doublethefun]

[and who is this hunk of a stallion?]

...Can I help thee?

[policehorse]

[You can only get muscles like this after years of hunting down evildoers!

He nods and snorts. A gang of ruffians should have passed this way. Might you point him in their general direction?]

[moonlightmagician]

[ Oh don't mind the internationally wanted jewel thief casually leaning against the wall. He won't hurt anything. ]

[policehorse]

[Sniff. Sniff sniff. He must be on the trail. His nose never lies, and yet there seems to be no guilty parties here. He gives a disappointed neigh. Where has his quarry gone off too?

And then he sees the bystander. Hello, good sir. Do you perhaps know where the criminal scent is leading?]
