Getting a long handled mop, you start to help Tabby out with Grue's huge back. Tanot, the idiot, is still laughing, and Faral is staying away from the tub. After a brief moment of hesitation, Ruby begins sloshing water onto Grue. You take special care not to get any soap in his eyes as you was his head, telling him to close them while you rinse. By putting your elbows into it, and cutting loose quite a few clumps of hair, you start making headway. It takes you the better part of an hour, and three tub refills, but you finally get Grue clean. There's a stain around the rim of the tub though that you can't get out, and you feel like a bath yourself. Now that you have some warning, you set aside several clean horse blankets for Grue to use for drying off. Everyone turns around as Grue exits the tub. Which, in accordance to the cosmic laws of narrative, happens to be the EXACT moment that Newt come into the stables, followed by Zanne. "The Innkeeper said you were in here and... oh my..." Zanne quickly turns around, but Newt seems frozen, face turning deep red again. "Grue clean now! Hair soft and silky!" |
