Jub looked alarmed at the sudden sound, an expression that only grew when Brutrumukk voiced his desire to fight [i]whatever[/i] had made it. [color=CCCC22]"We don't know if it's the cat, Brutrumukk,"[/color] Jub pointed out. [color=CCCC22]"It could be... anything. And we're not exactly in top condition right now."[/color] The exhaustion in his voice was clear as he said that last sentence. He looked up at Aaliyah. [color=CCCC22]"Would you know about anything that would be making that sound?"[/color] He was half-hoping she would say they had a rambunctious pet dog, or a very clumsy servant, or... something. Anything that meant they wouldn't have to fight right now.
