 Powerplay with them going closer, let me know if you want it changed. And uh, guess Firefly can reply this round!
  So she couldn't shift yet? He eyed her curiously; she looked like she ought to be old enough, by now. Talitha had been shifted when he saw her, and the two girls were about the same age. Then again, everyone was different--and this didn't throw too much of a wrench into anything. "That should be fine; I'll show you why. As for what you should or shouldn't do, just use common sense. Don't let anyone open the door for any reason. If she starts saying things to get you riled up so you open the door to fight her... well, just don't. Walk away for a bit; you can even check out the house and keep an eye on the shed through the windows, especially if the weather isn't too nice." He motioned for her to follow and picked up the other piece of meat. They moved around to the back yard of the mansion where the shed was. It was a decently sturdy structure, although its integrity had been advanced by a number of support beams he'd nailed on himself. Weak spots were singled out and new boards were placed over them, making it harder for the captive to break out.There was one part where a sizeable chunk of a plank had broken off. The square opening was maybe six by six inches; large enough to push things through, but nowhere near large enough to squirm out, even while completely down-shifted. Around the hole, he'd added extra reinforcements so the surrounding wood could not be torn off or broken further. He trotted over to it and pointed it out to Garnet with his nose, and then he shoved the deer leg through the hole, hoof first. He preferred if everyone used this hole--opening the locks was too risky. Before placing her inside, he'd made sure to remove any impromptu tools she might find laying around, as well. The shed was essentially empty, other than Firefly and now the deer meat. For water, he'd have to find a small pail, he guessed. Maybe he'd find one laying around in the yard. |
