fandomtownies | The Preserve, Monday Evening

Old Lace was hunting, and Gert was... well, Gert was sitting against a tree and playing with her phone.

Normally Gert took Old Lace out for walks during the day, because being in the woods at night was creepy, but given how unforgivably and disgustingly hot it was today, she'd put it off until evening, figuring that it would be a little cooler. It was still pretty muggy and disgusting, but at least not to the extent that she wanted to dump her water bottle on her head.

While Gert was engaged in a pretty intense game of Tetris (that was about as advanced as cell phone games got on phones from 2003), Old Lace took down a few squirrels, and just as Gert thought she was about ready to call it a night, she found herself suddenly caught in a spray of what seemed to be deer blood, judging by how much there was of it.

"Ugh, OL," she called, annoyed. "Keep enough distance that I don't get splattered. I already showered once today."
