says to :---|....*--Only within : I pushed through the door of
the hall and made my way to navigate the paths then, talking as
we traveled. Too keep the quiet from over crowding. Plus if I
happened to say something or answer a question that would help
you get your head around skinning that was a bonus. “So when we
get here, you’ll see just inside the backdoor inside the
tavern’s kitchen is a board. Its like…oval and has a sleen pelt
stretched on it. But its inside out, see.” I said, and turned to
watch you follow. “so all the fur is on the inside, and you’re
going to see all the skin, you know?” I wondered if I was
describing it well enough.

says to Thresh the Stampede | Ma: Once you were off I settled
into motion behind you and well you heard the light thumping of
my boots as I kept up with your strides since there were rather
longer than my own.. Glancing up at you as I nod a little bit
listening hmming a little bit as I give myself a visual of what
I am going to see but I as I walked along I almost tripped over
a rock.. clunking boots dropping against the path as I steady
myself thinking "grace is so not my middle name".. Getting my
question back in order I offer..Okay so the pelt is a on a
board.. and well still has it's fur.. nods a little as I keep
myself moving only to inquire..What do I do with the side that
is the skin Jarl?... The process however eluded me..

says to :---|....*--Only within : The tavern was coming into
sight as we continued on our way, and I lowered my gait, taking
slower shorter strides, instead of making your tired by the time
we got there and in no mood to play with the flesh of a dead
animal. HA! “That’s what its doing on the board…I have to split
the lips. I’ll show you how. But the two major things to keep in
mind when your stretching out the skin…or drying it I guess. So
she can hit it with brain soup and begin the tanning process,
you have to ensure you get the ears separated. The cartilage
from the flesh, or the cartilage will make it rot, and it won’t
dry and you’ll wind up with no fur on the ear, and the whole
thing will look like shit. She may still be able to use it for
leather work, but we want to fetch the best price when we sell,
which requires fur on, all of it, no rot.” I laughed. “…the pads
on their feet, that’s the other place we gotta be sure to scrape
all the fat off, otherwise, it’ll rot, and you’ll have holy
paws. Then we leave the flesh side out, so it dries up a little,
and we did it on the board with the skin stretched tight around
it, so there’s no shrinking or deforming.”

says to Thresh the Stampede | Ma: I have way to much energy for
my own good at times when you gait slowed I was appreciated
greatly.. listening to you I attempted to commit everything you
spoke to memory.. fingers reaching to tug the cloak tighter
around me hearing the sounds of the tavern coming closer and
closer into the shells of my ears.. Not really having stepped
foot in side of this place since I been here.. figuring once we
are within you'll show me so I can have a visual of what exactly
I am suppose to do since I really don't want to mess up what you
are working on for Mistress Disturbia.. but still as a small
breath leaves my lungs I just reply...Of course Jarl.. and just
so I don't mess up give me a visual of what I need to do.. like
an example..I've already done better with visual explanations
verses written.. since it makes it easier when I see it..

says to :---|....*--Only within : We made it to the tavern, but
instead of going inside, I went around, to the back of it. Here
you would see what appeared to be a messy workstation but for
the work that was done at it, aside from the blood obviously, it
was pretty clean. There was a work table of wood there, with a
small utility knife stabbed into it, and a small tripod frame of
wood, with the carcass of a dead larl hanging from it, a bucket
of blood under its head. It’d been draining out since yesterday.
A few feet away was a fire, and the kitchen slaves of the tavern
were left to tend it, so my animals would freeze up and become
unworkable, but weren’t so warm they cooked or rotted quickly. I
moved to the door and brought from the kitchens three lanterns
whose handles were in my left hand, and the board of flesh under
my right arm. I set the stretched pelt on the board upon the
table, and set the lanterns down next to light them, and hang
them about the work area so we had some decent light since we
decided to work at night. “Alright, so what I did and what
you’re gonna wanna do is…” I would trail off going into detail
of what I did to get the carcass on the board, and what I
expected you to finish off to get it ready for Disturbia.

says to Thresh the Stampede | Ma: I had followed you around to
the back of the tavern where the voices within were still rather
jovial mixed with the squealing screams of bond maids.. I
allowed soft pools of almond to level upon you a moment focusing
upon the light the lanterns were providing for now.. It was when
one of them swung after they hand been placed up that my eyes
landed upon what you already had been working on. Yes there was
one hanging up by it's hind legs over the bucket.. it still
looked fierce even while completely dead.. however it was the
other one held upon the makeshift rack.. pink flesh showing from
it being turned inside out..
I saw the pins which held the skin to the board.. and without
further need of explanation I reached toward the bottom where
the hind paws would be .. fingers easily removing the pins lined
there , as I tugged them out from where they rested I gingerly
found a home for them within the bottom part of my kirtle..
almost using it as a pin cushion of sorts.. lowering my frame to
settle easily down into a crouch as I leaned over toward the
other set.. pulling and tugging the sharp points away from the
pelt granted I was being careful since I didn't want to ruin
what had already been started.. rising to full height I then
moved back in to release the pins along the rest of the way,
cautiously taking them from the head .. once complete.. Before I
took it off the frame I gave a good check of the ears.. back
treading foot falls leading me to the table and dragging the
blade back with me.. finger tips precise as I take care of the
ears.. putting the blade back I returned to it.. my hands
however being very easy with it as I turned it back inside
out..fur in view now and well everything seems to be in order
with it but still I looked to you..

says to :---|....*--Only within : You began to pull the pins out
after I explained what I had done, and what I expected you to do
and I smiled as I watched you work carefully as not to damage
the pelt. I crossed over to the tripod frame and drew the knife
from its sheath at the small of my back, it ran sideways with
the handle to my right. The sharpened edge was used to cut the
legs of the animal from its wrist to its elbow all the way to
the bone. As I worked you worked, and though I wanted to chat
and speak, I kept mostly quiet, and to myself, as not to
interrupt and distract you during your first time. It wasn’t
until I had most of the skin ready to peel, I just had to trim
around the feet, to keep the claws on that I pawsed…get it.
Paws…ed…heh. And watched you worked to sever the ear cartilage
from the flesh so it wouldn’t continue to rot out and dry
improperly. “…looks good steps…” I said with a smile, going back
to hacking between the final joint of every toe the larl had.
“…a good brush and see how clean she is…should be finished about
the time I am.”

says to Thresh the Stampede | Ma: I smiled granted you probably
couldn't see it despite the light given, shadows and all that ..
I let my fingers trail across the pelt feeling the fur just move
beneath my finger tips.. Of course I studied this animal for a
moment.. wondering if it fought before it died and sure it would
of killed you without a second wondering.. I offered a small
little shrug of my shoulders held beneath the cloak .. looking
over at your work table. capable digits snaking to grasp along
the comb and brush held there.. I pressed the teeth of the comb
against the lengthiest part of the pelt.. fur easily guiding
through as I alternate with the brush as well.. there wasn't
much to do when it came to this animal and well I began to think
on how interesting it would be to do this by myself..even though
I know it's a long process
Carefully and smoothly leading the comb then the brush ,
repeating straight down to the paws.. I wandered easily around
to the back to make sure the same could be said for that area as
well.. stooping down into another crouch I run the teeth against
the tail.. calming strokes of the brush accompanying.. feeling
muscles within caramel limbs extend as I stood again.. shuffle
of booted feet leading me around to the front again.. as you
spoke I turned my attention to you as the comb was running down
one ear and then the other....Well she is brushed and comb
pretty good Jarl.. and it's beautiful .. I nodded allowing soft
doe hues to move along the pelt .. taking it in and figuring
Mistress Dis is definitely lucky...

says to :---|....*--Only within : I had finished with the larl
pelt, and stood turning to you as you spoke of being done and I
smiled, was nice to get ahead, since I had the two animals I was
in for a very long night until you were volutold to help. I
lifted the fur of the larl, carefully turned it inside out,
after I was satisfied with the scraping of the fat between its
feet and the pads around there, and drew it down the oval shaped
board, working it until the board stretch the flesh tight. It
took me a few minutes to pull it into place, and then I looked
to you as I held the board up with the one hand, and began to
steal pins from your kirtle to pin this sucker into place.
“this…will be in the kitchens, drying, save as where I got the
sleen from. It’s all yours. You finish it off for me sometime,
and I’ll make a deal with you.” I paused to reach for another
pin to begin marking its mouth closed on the board. “you finish
this one off for me, without me, and I’ll give you first dibs on
a pelt, any of your choose, and instead of preparing it for
Disturbia, I’ll watch over to make sure you don’t mess anything
up, but I’ll let you do the entire thing. The draining,
skinning, scraping, pinning, brushing…the whole thing…and I’ll
pay her to turn it into your own cloak to keep you warm, should
Arnvid allow you the gift.

says to Thresh the Stampede | Ma: A small grin just stretched
across exotic features hearing your words.. I softly spoke..That
would be wonderful Jarl!... Oh a reward if I do well I really
couldn't ask for much else since it's rare to be offered
something as beautiful as your own pelt to wear.. which I would
hope the High felt the same... Even so I watched you prepare the
other animal for the board and yes I remained absolutely and
positively still while you removed the pins from where I had
tucked them.. rather strategically mind you.. glancing up toward
the night sky and well once again seeing a litter of stars over
head , the three moons clearly visible as I just pointed up for
a moment recalling what barbarian girl had told me once...In a
place where a girl I knew came from she said her stars had
names.. different clusterings of them .. like one was called the
"big dipper".. another canis major "The big dog"...I smiled
again before my words came back...Rather interesting wouldn't
you say Jarl?...

says to :---|....*--Only within : If all I had do was kill the
animal and you do the rest of the work, I saw no reason why you
couldn’t be gifted the pelt for the work you put in, and
hopefully you’d stick with it so I wouldn’t have to start a list
of who’s been taught skinning and who hasn’t. I turned, as I
finished tacking the larl into place, and looked to the sky as
you talked about the stars. I plainly moved in and placed my
head next to yours a little back so I could have the same proper
angle at the sky so I could point our. “from the big dipper you
can find that W lookin one….Cassiopeia…the sitting queen. And
from those two…you can find…” I pointed with both hands for this
one, with the one hand I said look here, but use you peripheral
to see over here, and you’ll see the seven sisters…they only
show up in your peripheral. Disappear when you look right that
them. Those three constellations made roughly an equilateral
triangle, so if you could find one to the other, you could
always find the third, it was in one of two spots, only reason I
could ever find the seven sisters. I turned then and brought the
board in to the tavern for the night.

says to Thresh the Stampede | Ma: Oh well see good to know there
is one person on Gor who doesn't find me strange, Jarl...
Chuckling as you spoke considering my conversation wasn't met
with the strange looks I have gained before for it..Allowing
said pools of brandy to glance over at you , actually noticing
more so now how tall you are well I noticed before now but
still.. shifting a small glance along the side of me as I looked
up and caught for the briefest of moment the cluster you were
speaking about but the moment I fully turned darkness of head
they up and disappeared again... muttering under my breath
thinking dang it.. still another small bit of laughter escaped
from me as you moved off to take your board back in.. not sure
if you wanted me to stay or go considering I was having fun...
but I didn't want to impede on you further than you felt
warranted..
