[She squints her eyes up at Thomas, knowing that if he got the first word in then he's paint her black as a kettle. She was so not willing to let that happen, instead hunching her shoulders defensively and trying to look as innocent as possible. With a bluff check of 19 she does a fairly good job at first!]
Well, you see Kat and I had set up this little...booby trap in the Hide's training area outside this past spring. It, uh, was an ankle-rope-deal that when you stepped inside the spring snapped and whoever was caught would be yanked up into the air feet first. [Her eyes light up mischeviously as she gets more animated, her words coming out faster and her hands begin to move quickly.]
It was actually quite a tricky piece of magic that we had to work out together, which was really fun! You see, we had to obviously make it invisible so it couldn't be avoided, and then we didn't want it by any trees because why would the melee fighters train by trees? So I had to make sure it was workable in open air, which was tough let me tell ye!
[She suddenly seems to realize that instead of defending her case she was more than likely causing more harm by her words, so her explanation is cut short as her face shades a soft red, giving Merlin a "whoopsie" face.]
Well uh... Sir Thomas just so happened to be the one training that day and um... in the middle of a mock-fight also happened to be the one to spring the, um, trap. We had originally intended to catch someone who wasn't a... Dragon's Claw, but in the end it was much more hilarious how it turned out!
Oh, and this is an iPod! You can listen to music with it and lots of other stuff, I can show you how to use it if ye want?
