Can't even shout, Can't even cry. The Gentlemen are coming by. Looking in windows, knocking on doors. They need to take seven, and they might take yours. Can't call to mom, can't say a word. You're gonna die screaming but you won't be heard.

Bag the crypto. Say what is on your mind.

Move to house that does not have mice.

Yes, thank you Gus. I was thinking more immediately?

My ears hurt; my fingers hurt. It should not get this cold in the south. My fingers feel like they're burning from the cold.

Sorry, Em

It was the quip-impulse.

Seriously. If you can not cure the mouse, help the mouse escape its pain.

Oh crap. It's not there now. So either it got away (seems unlikely) or she moved it when I wasn't looking. There is a dead or dying mouse somewhere in my apartment, and I may not know where until I step on it. AAAAH!

I know, I know. There are more scary things. But this is kind of freaking me out.

That sounds reasonable. Um. How?

Also, if it's saveable, any suggestions on catching it?

On the upside, I'm not sure I've ever seen Bastet so happy.

Well now, it wasn't such a good idea to put it down next to something you can't fit under, now was it, kitty? Even a mouse-brain should be able to figure out it ought to stay under there. Of course, I can't fit under there either...

I am struggling here. How might we succor a poor, injured mouse over the Web, when our best local observer can not locate the mouse?

The cat! The cat will be nigh the mouse. It is a certainty.

It's under the entertainment center. The cat is keeping close watch over it.
