Summary
“Hullo to you, too. New to the hunt – are we?”
It's a feminine voice, they think, a little aged, a little scratchy. Still, there's no malice, for the first time in what feels like a week of bloodshed and burning muscles. It's probably been less than a day. The last of the sun's rays have yet to sink over the horizon.
“Yes – you're a hunter too?”
Or, kindness can be found in even the darkest places.

Summary
Stagnation Syndrome: a progressive disease that occurs in uma musume. Symptoms include mood swings, depressive tendencies, headaches, rashes on the neck and legs, stomach aches, and in later stages, loss of circulation in legs. It is well documented in its causes and cures, but not in the mechanisms. While it can be fatal if left untreated, no Uma has perished from Stagnation in the past half a century. The early stages are easily reversible, and there are long running superstitions all over the world about the terrible misfortune that will befall a city inhospitable enough to let an Uma perish from stagnation.
Agnes Lucille, when she was a human man, studied it in order to be a better trainer. But after Tachyon’s experiment— Horse Replacement Therapy, she called it— she realizes the symptoms are much different when you’re the one experiencing them.
Same with the treatments.Series

Summary
Arthur doesn't do well with change. Small changes he can handle, but large ones have always knocked him a little off kilter. Usually he can adjust, given enough time - get his footing back and walk it off.
But not this time.

Summary
When he woke up in a field by a tree the next day, the voice remained with him and even shared his frustration of being so far from his horse. It shared his sentiment of wanting to stay far from Strawberry as he possibly could. For the longest time, Arthur didn't question it. It seemed harmless enough and it didn't really bother him.
Until he died.
It was just an accident, he slipped on some rocks and fell down a mountain side while hunting for that silly Jack Hall gang treasure map. He hardly even felt a thing when he hit the ground. He saw the light and everything. Only that light wasn't heaven's glory or hellfire. It was 1:00 in the afternoon by the tree where he hitched his horse.

John’s a little more prepared for the bear he spots on the edge of the grounds in the dusk, lumbering through the trees with a crow clinging to its back. The crow caws softly when it sees him, and the bear turns and stops, as if John is the ghost.

“Hello there! Ah, I see you’re new around these parts. I’m old around these parts. Blind Man Cassidy is my name. If you’d like your fortune told, I just ask for a bit of gold.” He holds out a tin coffee can smothered in rust, full of empty, whistling desert air. Heat broils up around them and makes the horizon waver.

Arthur knows now, so many miles later, he never should have stopped. He never should have stopped along the trail, and he certainly never should have given that man any money. Damn this moment of charity, of weakness, and all the change it brought about.- Language:

Summary
There are many things, it seems, that Arthur never told him. About his hopes. His fears. About how heavily the weight of the gang crushed down on his shoulders. About the bright moments he found out there in the wilds, helping and befriending random strangers just because he could. The strange phenomena he saw and dutifully noted in his journal, then never spoke of again. There is so much, John realises, that he never knew about his brother, because he never asked.
But really, out of all the mysteries in Arthur’s life, this one seems like a pretty big deal to not goddamn mention.

Summary
Arthur wasn't one of those academics. He was simply an outlaw trying to survive a dying livelihood. He knew the next death was coming, eventually. Whether it would be from a hanging, a wayward bullet, or some beast of the wild, he knew he would see the last place he'd slept again.
Arthur knew that while he could simply try again, nobody else had that chance.

Summary
Djura is retired in so much as a his role will allow him to do so. Then a hunter, too scared and green around the ears to listen decided to take a shot at him.
And won.
The blood soaked into the cobblestone below, it runs along the ridges and valley and seams of the street.
Blood.
It always came down to Blood. Didn't it.
You come into this world screaming and covered in it, its a matter of live and death to have it, and your lucky to avoid it in your death.
Djura would never consider himself lucky.There was a strange noise. Nothing like he’d ever heard before which was worrying, but thinking was like trying to keep sand in a slotted spoon. A repetitive something. Words were said, but they didn’t mean anything, just noise like the chattering of church ravens. His eyes wouldn’t focus, but what he did see was white. So white and clean

Summary
Maria has been dead for decades, if not centuries, trapped within a nightmare of her own making. But even perishing there will not allow her to rest, as she soon finds herself bound to the Hunter's Dream and, inexplicably, very much alive. Yharnam is much changed from the city she once knew, yet delving into its mysteries is the best chance she has of learning what has happened to her and why.
Provided, of course, that she's willing to join the Hunt one last time.
Perhaps, this time, she can do some good.

Well, animating them... scaling them up to full size... giving them all their other powers... connecting their bodies to the minds and souls of them from another, blocked off universe...
Okay, it kind of messed up on this one.
