[color=firebrick]"Yeah I am, you cunt."[/color] Before Orchid could try and shoot again, a rather vicious looking badger arrived. It wasn't like a badger she's ever seen; it was bigger, with strange looking claws and armor on it. It was pissed off. But Orchid didn't care. She's dealt with rabid dogs and angry horses when she was still alive. A souped up badger meant nothing to her. [color=firebrick]"Tch. I'll show you how it's done."[/color] Orchid put her sling away inside of her bag, knowing that a mere acorn wasn't going to do much to it. She picked up her trench club and glared down at the badger. Despite being a goblin she stood up straight, her face stony but her glare burning. She didn't act openly hostile, but she didn't let her guard down either as she stared down the badger. She remembered that she had a skill called Pacify Animal. She wasn't sure if it would work on this creature, but she may as well give it a try. She also used her Monster Analysis on it to see if that would give her any additional insight. [color=firebrick]"[b]Down.[/b] You try anything, and you're going to regret it."[/color] Orchid had two theories about how this might pan out; either this works really well and she can tame this badger, or it just charges at her. Either way she wasn't afraid of it; if it charges she'd be ready for it. She held her trench club at the center of the shaft so she could slam one end of it into the ground and brace it against it's charge. She'd hide behind her shield too in order to help avoid the claws. The only problem would be the weight of the beast just going right at her. But at this point? She wasn't going to let this thing get the better of her. Not this badger, not the goblin bitch, no one.
