[STAFF BOOTH] Albatross' Fail Bait Version 2.0 [OPEN]

[Toshihiko Two]

"Or spin them about in circles," Rob suggested helpfully, "close to a very steep cliff."

"Hold a contest," said Wild Green Stones. "The winner is the kin who hunts the most. Everyone keeps the ones they hunt, and the winner gets extra."

He paused. "You should also award the winner with a title. So they have motivation to try."  

[Toshihiko Two]

"I've heard squeezing can prove very therapeutic. For stress, you know. ...Less for them, more for you."  

[Zuchy]

"Ooh, oooh, I've got it!" Sootstriped's tail swished with wicked delight. "Rub them down with that underground mushroom, the one that smells like wild male boars in heat! Any other boar will try and fight them, and any females, well..."

"...if they're lucky, they'll only get trampled or squished."  

[thyPOPE]

"Build a snow-kin out of them!" grinned Wild Green Stones. "Of course, this might require some...pointy sticks. Purely for structural purposes."  

[Toshihiko Two]

"Or boiling. But to be honest, I think if you had a bit of water that was over knee-height, that would be enough. They don't float, do they? If they did, you could strap them together into a very annoying raft. Face-down, of course."  

[thyPOPE]

"Teach them how to garden," said Okay is Wonderful, offering exactly no explanation as to how this might be possible. "Then they'll have a hobby that isn't following you around!"  

[Amorpheous]

Till I Find Somebody New looked at the furry creatures with some distaste. They weren't very attractive for familiars--a posse of swans would be much preferable.

He nodded over at the booth with the fighting ring, "Why don't you just put them over there? Some of them are sure to die."

Albatross snorted. Gardening. And like the sun and moons that rose and fell, more furbies disappeared into the great unknown.

"For the 2nd day of the year, I suggest a new sporting event be invented where whoever threw a furbie furthest would win. "Yes, yes, a booth for future winter events.  

[Scaramouche Fandango]

"What about sending them on a mission to find you a bear? They look like something a bear would eat," mused Defiant.  

[thyPOPE]

Time to Go watched the doe before her with discernible frustration. What were these things? How did they spawn?

"They're not very meaty, are they?" she said, shaking her head. "There's a bit too much fur for that - it looks like they're blubbery. Not a good meal."

Pelts for insulation, perhaps? Or maybe - maybe this doe would appreciate a streak of cruelty. "Figure out a scent that repels them - but don't stop there. Apply it to every one of them you can find. If they can't stand each other long enough to reproduce, they won't. It's a slow method...but if you dislike them as much as you claim to, won't it be interesting entertainment, at least?"  

[Zuchy]

Sootstriped laughed at the mental image Time To Go produced. "You've got to admit though....wrapping them up in metal wires and shiny bangles, and turning them out during a thunderstorm, it'd be faster!"
