Bamb!

The shadowy thing bounds in! Kicking up the muddy ground around them! Orangey fur, yellow eyes, fangs. Just as large as the one in the engine

"ohohohohohohoh!Oh! Gib 'im back! BACK!" it yell-squeaks.

If you want to roll animal ken you can!

Here is the roll...Circe needs to learn Animal Ken if she likes cute animals so much

[Seraphina]

The Nix did a double take, “Wait…what?” eyes daring to the front of the truck. “You didn’t try to get it out?!” why didn’t she try to get it out. It could be hurt!

“Oh, uh,” the Nix points in the general direction, “I haven’t gotten a good look at it.” Was hard to get a good visual on a moving target. “But I don’t know if it’s bad or not, just that it was heading our direction.” Clarification there. It could, could be friendly. Hell, even her inner thoughts didn’t buy that.

A hand moves to cover her face as the ground kicks up. Slowly lowering it, she sees the….animal?...monster?....something?

Blinking a few times, “Uh, hi.” Who was Gib? Or what was a Gib? While she still had the shotgun, it was pointed at the ground, so far, this thing hadn’t attacked. But it still could, and she was cautious.

[Saber Sloth]

The animal-hob in the engine gives a mighty fearful squeak!


"Gib! Gib me 'im! He's mine! Gib! Gib me!" the orangey hob demands, voice high and as squeaky, before, responding to the fearful squeaking of the other, "Hurting! Scared! Mine! Baby! Mine!" large flat, rabbity feet bat the muddy ground, kicking up more mud, it tries to bounce up to see the smaller rusty coloured one, fear alight in it's large eyes.

[Circe]

Circe's mouth and ears betray her shock and confusion. Before her jaw clicks shut with ears folding back flush to her skull, "Oooookay," Circe holsters her pistol and looks to Sera with a sigh, "Fanculo . Kid hitched a ride because of the fottutamente Wyrd," then turns to look at the, mother maybe? "I'll get the fluff ball out, you want ta try chatting the big one up?"

"Our bad! Sorry we didn't expect ta get a hitch hiker surprise," she hops over the railing before walking up to the hood whilst pulling her scarf up, "Just wanted ta see if Iron Sider carriages worked here. They don't."

"Really sorry about this, just make sure yer baby don't bite me while I get them outta the hood," and Circe will do her best to be gentle lifting the child out of the engine block. And trying to cover her hands with her sleeves, just in case it is bitey. Then set him down beside the larger one, not bothering to apologize further. Because she already said it.

[Seraphina]

Slowly setting the shotgun down, she holds up her free hand in front of herself. Then lowers herself out of the truck bed, still trying to keep her hands visible to the creature when she does.


“Oh no, he’s your baby.” Her voice soft and controlled, glancing to Circe, nodding. “My friend is going to get him out for you. Can you keep him calm? It will be quicker and easier if he’s calm.” She then knells down on one knee, not concerned with the flying dirt and mud, “Did you want me to lift you to see him as she gets him out?” she offers, “We’re very sorry about this, we never meant any harm to him.”

[Saber Sloth]

The Orange Rabbity Hob, twitches, foot still a thumping. Breath coming fast and short. Her noise twitch-twitch-twitches. Her eyes, stare into Sera's then travel to Circe.

"Quiet, quiet, quiet, quiet. Help, help, help, help." She chitters, to her young.

The stuck baby still squeaks, and chitters back. Though in no language that the Lost can discern, perhaps it's to young to know how to speak English.

"I-ron Carrrriage...." she says, wrapping a long barbed tongue around the words, calming down as she sees the Lost helping, "No, no, no. Should-should-should, have - p-p-p-oooony. Steed! Hedgey one! Yes! Market, stable-stalls. Sells. Yes!"

Presence+Animal Ken to calm the baby, and a Dex+Crafts to get him out of the engine.

I suspect Circe is getting bit through her coat.

[Seraphina]

The Nix stays in her position, kneeling on the ground, watching Circe.

But then looks back to the rabbit hob, nodding, “Yes, we should have a pony steed. We made a mistake.” And it sounded like there was a Market that sold them. Huh. “Thank you for telling us.”
Then she frowns as Circe seems to be struggling with the baby.

Slowly standing she walks over, looking at the young hob, she begins to sing. Something that would sound soothing, a peaceful smile on her face.

[Saber Sloth]

The baby tries his frightened, startled, damndest to bite through the coat, desperation, fear and squeaky terror fueling him, but alas, the Coat proves very protective indeed.

The Mama chitters, nose a'twitching, until the Siren sings. Calming babe and Mama both, the baby even offers Circe a slow, sleepy blink. Yawning in her face.

The Blueberry Elf can now lift the rusty furred hob out from the engine without any trouble.
