they were dragging a sloth all over the streets (dirt streets, but still) kinda like they do on those westerns. had a rope around the neck and the kids were running all over. took a while to figure out cuz it was dusk and the animal was in a sort of fetal position so it was a dark bundle bumping up and down, but i manage to make out its shape-- something living.

earlier that day i had seen the kids climbing this tall-as-fuck tree-- my guess is that's where they caught him. place was like 2km away from the town so i wonder if they dragged the animal all the way from there or what.

anyway, i realized what they were doing, and propelled by my beer buzz and natural anger (which i have in spades) i proceeded to jump out of the beer crate where i was sitting and gave the kids a proper yelling (i can be a LOUD motherfucker as jennthebenn can attest) and asked them if they would like me to drag them by the neck with a rope like that. i peppered my speech with various cursewords with little regard for the townspeople-- see my username?-- it's for a reason-- anyway, they fled in all directions and i took the animal and proceeded to unravel the noose.

back at the work camp where i slept, after some attempts to feed him saline solution or sugar water or something so he'd snap out of his shock we took him out in the sticks under cover of dark and let him climb a tree far, far from where he had been captured.

he was cool as fuck and strong and had a super-tough hide-- which is probably what saved him. he had the coolest sad eyes ever. you could look into them and see something-- not like reptiles, who have nothing, but more like a dog, except that they look more like people (with very small foreheads), so it was almost human.

anyway, he was a sweet fucker, with huge scary claws, and was liberated, and i hope he recovered and lived many years afterwards.
