Fandom Post Office: Saturday [14.07]

Moist was actually quite cheerful when he opened the Post Office. "Good morning, Gladys," he called as he propped open the double front doors to let in some air. "I have a good feeling about today."

"Good Morning, Mr Lipwig." The golem was sweeping the front steps methodically, and she paused as Moist stepped out to survey the street, golden suit gleaming in the sun.

"Yes, a very good feeling." He turned and went back inside, intending to get through the backlog of paperwork and, if he was feeling mildly masochistic, pat the cat. "Nothing can possibly spoil it."

You think he'd know better by now.

The Post Office is open.

Yup, he's here.

A velocirapter entered the Post Office with a smile on its face. Not a good sign, no.

"Good morning, welcome to the Fandom Po--" Moist looked up and stared, frozen to the spot behind the counter. Monster. Possibly a dragon. Brain work. Must make brain work. "Eep!

The raptor cocked its head and sniffed in Moist's general direction. Mmmm...food. It started making the raptor version of a mating call. It was rather chirpy, actually.

"GLADYS!" Moist yelled and started backing away, heading for the back room and the suddenly-nowhere-near-solid enough door. That was far too happy a noise for his peace of mind, since he suspected what the creature was happy about was the proximity of a meal.

The golem clomped in from outside and stopped somewhere behind the raptor. "Yes Mr Lipwig."

"Stop the dragon!"

From behind Gladys, another raptor had heard his brother's cry of "Free food!" and stalked into the Post Office. The first raptor turned and communicated to the other with a, "Chhirrup."

Both raptors leapt toward Gladys at once!

Moist dashed for the back room, peeking out around the corner. He should have known it was going to be a bad day.

Gladys didn't move, and her eyes flared as she went to grab one around the neck, other hand swinging in a fist towards the other's head.

The raptors didn't like getting smacked around, so they whined and snapped at her with their big teeth. The first one reached out his claws to swipe at her.

They may as well have been attacking a rock, for all the affect it had, a few chips flaking off the solid clay body her only damage. "You Are Not Supposed To Be Here," she intoned, and went to grab the clawing one's tail. "You Must Leave."

The first raptor yelped when its tail was grabbed. It cried out to its companion, who then ran out of the post office.

The first raptor, abandoned, continued to make angry chhirruping noises at the one holding its tail.

"Get rid of it!" Moist hissed.

Gladys, ever obedient, turned to walk towards the door. "You Must Go."

The raptor was drug by the tail, most unhappily clawing and scratching its feet on the floor of the post office as it tried to get out of Gladys' grip.

Gladys had a very strong grip, and she barely noticed, just kept walking, until she was outside the post office doors. "Do Not Return," she told it and released its tail.

The raptor was unceremoniously deposited outside the post office. It hissed at Gladys before trotting off to find the rest of its pack.

Gladys watched it go, then turned back into the Post Office. "It Is Gone."

Moist came out from the back room very reluctantly. "Good. Barricade the doors. If any more try and get in, get rid of them."

"Yes, Mr Lipwig."

"And I'm sure I've got a tube of liquid cement here somewhere. Make sure you collect the pieces that got knocked off, and we'll fix them up."

"Yes, Mr Lipwig."

"After you barricade the doors."

"Yes, Mr Lipwig," she said and went to barricade the doors.

Who's sweeping.

Post some letters.

My foreshadowing, she is subtle.

WHEN ANIMALS ATTACK!
