Description

_{Faline's second part in the hangman muppy training thingy!

Stick it up in a tree, hmm? If she was being honest, she was sick of hauling around corpses. Perhaps she'd just had enough of it for today... Nonetheless, she nodded as her father gave her the command, and she'd nuzzle against his neck once before picking up the grotesque dead dog and carrying it away. Along the border... Well, she supposed she should steer clear of the Fiume border where she'd killed the dog; so she opted out of that direction, and instead headed for the thinly wooded border between Trieste and Fogna. The girl was forced to drop the dead thing to run up and down the treeline at the border, wondering where on earth she should hang it-- after all, carrying dead weight upwards was no easy feat. However, it didn't take as long as she'd thought to find a good tree for the job.

It had two new branches growing bizarrely from it's trunk, which, after testing them, she supposed could hold her weight. Faline dragged the body here and inspected the rather challenging task before her for a few moments, planning, before beginning. She lifted the dog's upper half onto the lowest branch, and used it's stiff legs to hook the branch under it's elbows. From there, she- rather inexpertly- hopped onto the branch. After a few wavering moments, she landed her front paws on the second branch, a foot or two higher than the first, with her back paws on the lower. From there, she craned her neck down uncomfortably and seized the dead dog by the collar, then dragged. Her entire body quivered fiercely from the effort, but she managed to hook the dog's legs as she had before, and it was fully suspended awkwardly on the first few branches. Here comes the tricky bit. There was a branch above her, much sturdier, that could hold the dog-- but it would be very difficult to get the thing up there.

Admittedly doubting herself, Faline hopped up so her hind legs were on the middle branch, and front legs on the highest, and leaned down to grab the collar and repeat the process. God, the dog was heavy. Her whole body was shaking and her neck and shoulders hurt from the strain as she shimmied, dog-in-mouth, and tried to hook the collar onto the end of the branch. She felt it catch-- Almost there! Just had to-- tug it- crack!

Faline hit the ground like a ton of bricks with the branch she'd been standing on crushed awkwardly under her. She flinched, expecting the dead dog to come tumbling onto her, but upon looking up- she noticed it hanging, disturbing and grotesque, from the branch above. Damn. Fay got to her paws and licked off the new blood from the dead dog, panting, and began to trot away- she didn't want to stick around... She didn't like the sight of it.}
