Gadgets and Cowards

by Gwen Hillheim

Today has been exahusting. We hurried over to the house expecting some kind of fight, but the robert guy and captain anderson didn't find anything.
 
so we decided to look ourselves. and i must say, there were a lot of things that i just didn't get. this dude is way smarter than me. lots of papers and books and gadgets. there was a bowl that you could relieve yourself in where water disappeared down into. i desperately wanted to try it out.
 
Cas and the others were looking at the one gadget that i knew i wouldn't have been any help with, I guarded the door.
 
The dreadnaught and the red hand guy opened the door, i tried to get the others attention before they came inside but i didn't react in time. so i panicked and knocked the doorknob off while the red hand guy was opening the door.
 
something weird happened. Albert D came from behind the curtain, he looked at me with a knowing expression and I can't quite explain it but i had an idea that somehow Cas was able to make themself look like Albert. He was wearing their clothes and had similar posture/mannerisms. I'd definitely bring that up later.
 
Albert tried leading the two trespassers (hypocrite!) away but like cowards they ran back into the house and the pursuit was on. If that's really Cas I couldn't let them go by themselves... i did promise to protect them after all.
 
I love fighting. Especially monsters. I'm comfortable killing monsters. But these two used stupid tricks to hide like the fucking cowards they are. i at least was able to channel Tempus multiple times to make sure I had the upper hand.
 
Eventually the town watch showed up and it was obvious that they were not going to apprehend the dick heads. We walked away from the situation with practically nothing about what happened to the real Albert.
 
I will finish writing more later, i should get back into the habit of doing so. Although I can only imagine how ecstatic mother would be to see me write this... maybe I won't.
