How now Brown Cow

[puppy_lancer]

Characters: Lancer and Mayu [closed]
Format: Action?
Setting: Floor 33
Summary: Lancer and Mayu wanna try bungee jumping and cow riding.
Warnings: Mooshroms and maybe death

[After many hours of hard work, the harness and reins were done. The two intrepid individuals were all set to perform their great experiment. Namely, whether or not the fungus-infested cows would make good mounts. And of course, once they got their proof with that experiment,they could turn to the experiment of seeing whether or not someone could jump off the edge of a floating island and survive, provided they were hanging on to a rope.]

[Currently, Lancer is standing on the floating island, trying to find a cow of good enough size. He has his harness, reins, and a wooden pole that he made for an activity that he had in mind just in case the cows were good mounts.]

You ready to go, little lady?

[He calls to his companion.]

[axeforasong]

...Went well! Try again?

[puppy_lancer]

[He pulls himself out of the brambles.]

Yeah, sure. After we catch our breaths, though.

[He rubs at his backside. He has to wait for that to heal before he can get on a cow again.]

[axeforasong]

Ah...

[both cows are... far away now...]

Have lost reins though...

[puppy_lancer]

[He scratches his head.]

Guess we're gonna need to make some new ones now, huh?

[axeforasong]

[shrugs] Always second chance, yes?

[puppy_lancer]

Yep, second chance. Unless you wanna try riding them without reins.

[axeforasong]

How would you direct it?

[puppy_lancer]

Grab its horns, I guess. You grab the mane on horses.

[axeforasong]

Why don't horses have horns...

[puppy_lancer]

If they did they'd be unicorns. I guess it's because they don't need them?

[axeforasong]

Everyone needs axe; doesn't mean they have one.

[it's really depressing...]

[puppy_lancer]

That's true. Maybe they haven't gotten around to giving themselves one yet.

[axeforasong]

Maybe we can make more...

[supply the Tower with axes people will totally appreciate their generosity]

[puppy_lancer]

Of course.

[He takes a moment to think.]

My brother says we should make weapons out of animal parts. So they don't turn into gel when the glamour is off. Think we get beat up some monsters for materials?

[axeforasong]

Hmm... out of bone, maybe? Would need big animal.

Not worked with bone before; much difference to wood?

[puppy_lancer]

Well, not that much. It's harder and a stronger material. I guess you can get it sharper too. You just can't make anything too big out of it unless the animal is huge.

[axeforasong]

Hmm...

Think would be hard to make you lance unless shaft made of something else... [sorry lancer :'(]

[axeforasong]

Cow is big though yes? Shoulder blade should make good axe head; ribs make knives?

[puppy_lancer]

Yeah, that works perfectly! And we could ride them while hunting for other monsters. Having a ride helps in a fight!

...DW never sent the notif on this one >:|

[axeforasong]

Then; is perfect, perfect!

[puppy_lancer]

[He cracks his knuckles.]

So, which one are we starting on?

[axeforasong]

Hmm.... [scanning the field, scanning the field...]

That one. [she points to a large one that looks pretty old.]

Probably easiest.

[puppy_lancer]

Looks like it. I hold it and you chop?

[axeforasong]

Sounds perfect!

guess we ought to warn for the butchering of animals?

[puppy_lancer]

[Silently, he creeps up to the Mooshroom and grabs it by the horns. Before it can try to twist out of the way, he pulls on the horns to lift its head up.]

Now, little lady!
