[you are suddenly at the bottom of a pile of heavy, square-cornered objects. it is rather hard to breathe and they're jabbing you in uncomfortable places. you may want to move.]

[THE LAST WIRE BUNDLE IS YOURS BRAVE SOLDIER.]

[blackjacked]

[YEEEEES

. . . can't really pocket it when he has both hands clutching so tightly to the rope, so holds it in his palm while he makes his way down slooooowly

he's probably falling the last few feet, though]

[dramatispersonae]

[THWUNK.]

[blackjacked]

[PAINFUL THWUNK

. . . I think I will stay laying down for a little bit. . .]

[dramatispersonae]

[nothing interrupts your recovery time.]

[blackjacked]

[e-excellent

it's a while before he feels well enough to sit up again, and he empties the glass and copper contents of his pockets onto the platform. time to work them together some. . . how :|a into a snake, it seems]

[dramatispersonae]

[wires go into rods, hooks screw into ends of rods, and there's a head bit and a tail bit

. . . this would be a lot easier with nonmelted bits . . .]

[blackjacked]

[. . . y-yeah it would. grumping as he works, trying to gently force the melted bits together without absolutely breaking anything. . .]

[dramatispersonae]

[you have +1 MILDLY SHODDY SNAKE]

[blackjacked]

. . . ha ha. Sorry.

[checking to see if there are empty eye sockets on the shoddy snake like there were with the bird]

[dramatispersonae]

[there are! the stones fit in them neatly]

[blackjacked]

[has two this time! fitting the stones into the eye sockets and placing the shoddy snake into the glass nest]

[dramatispersonae]

[it comes to . . . very stuttery creaky life, oops.]

[blackjacked]

[scratching the back of his head sheepishly]

There was probably a better way to go about that, wasn't there? Geez. . .

[dramatispersonae]

[something to think about!

the snake turns into a greenish materia orb, but unlike the fire one, it's dark and inactive :|a]

[blackjacked]

[hrm. reaches out to pick up the materia orb and study it a la icon]

. . . gotta solve another puzzle to activate you, don't I?

[dramatispersonae]

['-']

[blackjacked]

[pockets for now and leans over the platform edge, scanning the room for anything else besides the lantern and sharp threads]

[dramatispersonae]

[nada...]

[blackjacked]

[climbs doooown from the platform (nearly slipping as he does so), and limps his way back into the hallway to check on the status of the torches :|a]

[dramatispersonae]

[all out...]

[blackjacked]

. . .

[peers back into the thread room to see if the center lantern is still lit]

[dramatispersonae]

[it's still lit!]

[blackjacked]

[yeeees. yoinking a torch off of the wall, lighting it in the lantern, and then returning to the hallway to LIGHT EVEN MORE TORCHES]

[dramatispersonae]

[there is nothing left in the tapestry to light up :|a]
