Well, shes trying to cover for her buds . . . Wonder if she can come up with a story Ms. Alger will buy?

It's a gilt trip thing. You don't really blame the person looking at it in stunned perplexity, but you want them to spill the beans on who did it.
Re: Like This - 2017 03 10
Would Ms. Alger have reason to believe that Scarlet is capable of knocking holes in a wall? It looks as if it would have taken a battering ram to shatter building materials like that... and Scarlet is feline, not artiodactyl.
I'm not sure that visiting a goldsmith would help. Scarlet won't squeal... mew, perhaps, but not squeal.jeffepp wrote:It's a gilt trip thing. You don't really blame the person looking at it in stunned perplexity, but you want them to spill the beans on who did it.

Poor Scarlet.
Here's hoping Ms. Agler won't say "Quite frankly my dear, I don't give a damn."

And THIS, Scarlet, is why when major property damage occurs, you leave the area. So the authorities don't start asking you embarrassing questions.
I would assume the school is used to holes in the wall and knows how to fix them.

OK, so we know she's a brilliant, pointy-eared Vulpine who sometimes struggles to master the strength of her emotions. There certainly precedent for that in the media.

I think Scarlet and the gang is missing one point about all of this. I would worry more about the being that can take that amount of damage and not blink an eye more than the one who dealt it.

And I only have the internet to thank/curse for me knowing what "vulpine" is the adjectival form of.
So, is Scarlet a kitsune, destined to grow a few extra tails?
And what kind of dog-faced boy is Timothy?
And what in the living fuck is Daylla?

I can't match her to anything in classic mythology I've ever heard of, Western or otherwise. She may be something unique to Paul's universe.And what in the living fuck is Daylla?

And whatever Daylla is, her mother seems to be another, implying that she breeds - or at least reproduces - true. (Many plants can reproduce asexually . . . no breeding involved.)
Or that could be artistic convention to illustrate the relationship.

It features a very foxy Scarlet front and center, sporting a bushy red tail and ears and all, holding a rather uncertain looking Timothy to her chest while in the background a Castela-shaped silhouette looks on with alarm.Dave wrote:(Can't see the Facebook photo, unfortunately, as it's private, but I'll take your word for its relevance.)
I think that for most people of approximately human physical durability, the difference wouldn't be particularly significant. Is it worse to be standing in the open at ground zero of a 50 megaton explosion, or of a 70 megaton one? Having either Atsali or Castela angry at you could result in severe repercussions and concussions, if not worse.oldmanmickey wrote:I think Scarlet and the gang is missing one point about all of this.

Daylla is a plant-based paranormal. Her face may be an analogous "leaf" that looks the way it does.
