fandomhigh | Animal Handling for Fun and Fun, Thursday

The tavern today was full of snakes today. Snakes and snacks. Snake snacks, to be precise.

"So, we had a lil' mix up on what we put into the computer thing," Magnus said as a snake just slithered on by.

Cara pushed a giant, brightly coloured jelly snake out of the way. "There was going to be death defying wrestling, but Australians ruin everything." You knew what you did, Australia.

"Ohthankgoditwasn'tspiders," Magnus said very, very quickly. He didn't like the spiders, kids. Not a fan of the spiders.

Cara looked over Magnus's shoulder, then threw a bar knife at something that very definitely wasn't a spider. "Yes. That would be unfortunate."

"Nope, fu--uudge that," Magnus said, immediately hiding behind her. "Spiders are where I gotta draw the line on animal handling! No ranchos!"

If Cara was a completely different person, she might have patted Magnus's hair reassuringly. Instead she addressed the class "Defeat the snakes, and the things that are also snakes, just with more legs. Then eat them."
