[ For whatever reason, Pounce has chosen to make this post while lying on top of a file. It isn't evident from the video whose file it is, though that will become apparent in a moment. It does kind of look like he found it and immediately decided it was a bed, though. ]

I have evidently been entrusted with Arthas' file. Given the circumstances, however, I believe it is safe to assume that I will not be taking the role of his permanent warden. None the less, until I am told otherwise I shall consider myself responsible for him as though I were.

I presume you are still free of the Lich King, Arthas. So long as you do not try my patience I will keep my claws to myself.

[ He doesn't see the rune until it takes effect. Fortunately there is an easy way to destroy most kinds of charm - eat it. He pounces at the rune, claws bared and ready to rend metal.

Hopefully he won't cut Arthas' throat in the process. ]

[The rune's magic is seared into the metal of the armor, dormant until it's needed but very awake now. Arthas grins again and brings his knife up to intercept the cat - he doesn't care what gets clawed if he can get a good injury in.]

[ The knife takes a big slice out of Pounce's side, but by the time he has his claws in metal the wound is already closing up. ]

[Arthas curses, and mentally adds another ability to his checklist. Healing. Fine. Any blow must be fatal immediately.]

Light damn it!

[The rune breaks once clawed, and he fights to stay upright with sheer willpower. His eyes droop shut and he trembles, but it only lasts a few seconds. His knees buckle and he tips back onto the barrier and slumps into a heap.

Zzz.]

[ Pounce has had quite enough of this. With Arthas down he drops the barrier, and chooses to drag the man back to his room with teeth in his remaining armor. Let him suffer the consequences. He'll be allowed out again when he gives up this insane march on Letty. ]
