Ch. 65 BedPack

After Ellie has dragged the beast back to the camp and began happily cooking it I begin meditating again. Completely ignoring Ellies excited expression that is slightly disgusting as she skewered a large chunks of thigh meat from the weird creatures rabbit like legs. Focusing a small amount of my attention of my craft after so many days of work I can finally begin the finishing touches.

<--- If you understand the issues then please ignore it if you don't please do not learn from this experience as it's got a lot of flaws and just general time issues... I'm not a tanner. I'ma worthless bum with a hobby of writing stories. I think we are all already weirdly surprised by my knowledge involving the tanning process. Google it if you wanna learn more as I am in no way an expert. The closest I've gotten to real world experience is one time I field dressed a deer someone else killed. As I hold a kind heart. I don't have an issue with killing I'll butcher all of life without a hint of regret if given enough reason but I respect all of life and will not kill anything without valid reason also I hate venison. So food isn't a valid reason and I have cloths already. --->

After draining and washing the hides I steal a few rocks from the girls fire before beginning smoking the hides. Then I grab the sack full of rabbit fur and get it ready, along with the needle and "thread" that I have acquired. After collecting the wolf hairs together inside a cloud I leave them afloat as I begin to shave away at the little bird beak a little to make it smaller. If it's to thick it will make it easier for the threads to come undone and for water to get into it.

<--- Furs need to be dressed, dress is a common term for preparing furs and properly treated regularly but I skipped that assume I did it off camera as this is already to much to ask of me and to much detail for a trivial side thing for you I am only going this far to create drama and interest in the story that is currently just two people wandering about with the occasional sexual assault side comment. That sounds worse then it is out of context... --->

Most the day went by before the leather was ready, I quickly recreated my previously premeasured cloud strips from memory before using them to trim the leather and collecting the trimmings, after it was done I quickly began affixing the fur to one side making small single loop knots out of each individual hair and tying off the ends many times over with the smallest little claws of clouds I could control after the fur had been firmly placed one side of each of the two leather strips excluding the overlapping sections. I begin sowing the two overlapping sections together to create a big opened vertical envelope or a started hotpocket. After that I sowed in some pouches made of the trimmings and some upside down straps into the opposite side. Once the storage pouches were all done I got started on the finishing touch. Folding over the long pouch like leather pag so that the bottom and top were touching and the strap side was facing out. Then I sowed in two long leather strips to each end before tying them together. Then I sowed in a similar leather strip into the inside of the fur part and grabbing a large piece of the trimmings and sowing one side of it to the edge of the fur opening along the inside I then flip the leather square over the fur opening before pulling the fur part as wide as possible then trimming off the edges at went to wide then flattening it and using some extra fur to line the underside of the fur covering before sowing a short leather strand to create a loop at the edge of the leather covering so that the leather covering can be pulled inside the fur part then tied off with the leather strap from the inside to make a door of sorts. After ensuring it was all ready I tie the two leather bits that hold the bottom and top together tight pulling the fur part closed then carry the whole thing to the girl who has now finished cooking her food and has already started eating the portion she set aside for me happily after I refused.

After the girl saw the large leather rectangle in my claws she looked at it curiously then I grabbed both her wrists and put her arms through the two straps meant to hold up the girls new backpack and placed the fur covering part over her head to give her a comfy hood. Ellie was deeply confused at first but after noticing the white fur and black leather she realizes where they came from and with a gasp looks at me. "Did you make this? Is that what all those sacks and wooden things were about?" She quickly takes it off and starts inspecting it. After realizing their was a long fur sleeve behind the hood she looks at me curiously before going to investigate but I reach my actual claw forward and stop her as I climb onto her shoulder and tug her new backpack onto her as I direct her forward with an arrow towards the tree. With a shrug she seems to go along with it and follows me directions I make a cloud path,

<---Pavement will just be path in casual convo now--->

helping her up the tree when she gets there as she walks curiously forward following the arrow I tug the backpack off her shoulder with a cloud claw before tossing it down onto the old leather mat and using my claw to slowly untie the binding and showing her that it doubles as a sleeping bag. Cautiously Ellie climbed into the comfy fur sleeping bag before I tie it off from the inside with a cloud claw standing on the outside personally as I use cloud claws to ensure that each of the points I sowed are covered in tree resin conveniently locationed inside the little nook in this large tree ensuring the outside will be properly water proof in rainy environments. It won't stand up to underwater environments as water can still get in through the slips in the cover in that situation but the way it ties makes it next to impossible for it to happen due to rain. As I notice Ellie struggling to get out from the inside I push my actual claw through the edge of the covering worming my way through I use the light skill and point towards the little leather strand wrapped around the loop in the covering.

Successfully escaping from her cozy prison she tries it on as a backpack again I had to stop her to show her how to tie and untie the binding then I show her each of the little pouches that make it an actual backpack. It's slightly less storage then the rawhide sack but at least it's cleaner and won't smell, as bad, also she won't have to carry the leather mat everywhere anymore. After Ellie had gotten used to her new backpack she starts removing her little tools and stuff that she was keeping affixed to rawhide sack a few other metal things from the inside I don't quite remember being there but whatever... The girl owns things that's nothing new, it's not like I can ask about them. Once she had finished I see her excited face suddenly shift as she eyes me and her face goes red... What's this pervert thinking now... "Thank you."

Hmm oh just that? Huh... Maybe I see her a little bit worse then she is. With a nod I turn around and walk outside onto the branch and stare up through the misty sky above seeing the glistening stars in the distance. Ellie doesn't follow me but I heard some rustling and banging followed by her old backpack flying out and off the branch... Whatever. After the night had fallen I shrug and walk into the cave only to be immediately picked up and pulled into the sleeping bag by Ellie as she hugs me to her chest like a stuffed animal with one arm and ties the latch shut with the other. Noticing a different texture I notice the pervert has chosen nude as her sleep wear tonight... Maybe that's why she was so rushed to block out what little light the moon and stars put into the little nook by tying off the latch so fast. This girl is confusing. I've seen her naked. Multiple times... For long periods of time. Yet she acts like it's something I can never be allowed to see whilst also proving that she's not that shy by hugging me to her naked chest... Eh whatever her chest is inflating and deflating rather slowly so I assume she's not being perverted... also I'm far to small and fragile for her to try anything yet. At most she can try to grope me some more. She can't possible come up with a physical way to go farther then that except oral... without injuring me or not enjoying it herself... as my junk grows and shrinks with my body size. Noticing her breathing become especially calm I realize she has dozed off... and at that point I realize I can't possibly meditate inside this without damaging the fur... Sigh a life of luxury truly makes a man weak. Noticing I got wiggle room as her hug got gentler when she passed out I crawl my way up next to her head and dig my little nose and mouth out of the side of the opening effectively making it possible for rain to come in as I start meditating. Well... I won't be able to meditate in the rain either so I guess this won't be a issue.
