buywithme | Prefect is being punished for DEFAMING THE GOOD NAME OF BATS

[Video clicks on, but Prefect himself is nowhere to be seen. Instead, the camera is fixed on...a bat. It's kind of a cute bat, to be honest, and it's hovvering more or less inoffensively in one place in the middle of Prefect's cabin. From it's dainty bat paws, there hangs a document which is surprisingly clearly labeled as "HOUSE DEEDS". After keeping the camera trained on it for a few minutes, Prefect whispers from behind the communicator:]

I think it's waiting for me to open the door so it can escape with those Deeds.

[Pause. Then added a bit more urgently:]

But I don't know where it got them! I don't own a house! I live in a stock room!

[Prefect does a slight pan around just in case there's any doubt about this, and... yep. His room is still full of boxes. He returns the shot to the hovering Deed thief bat. He actually sounds quite calm about this whole thing so far.]

What should I do? My room is supposed to be bat proofed, how did it get i--

[There's a sudden FLURRY OF WINGS extremely close to the camera, and the shot drops to the flood abruptly, giving a shot of Prefect shrieking and flailing at his head.

It's possible that a bat just landed in his hair. It's almost certainly pooping.]

[Added Later]

Do we have any rabies medication in the infirmary?

[Prefect complies, shifting down so that the nesting bat is easily accessible. Nesting bat however, does not want to be relocated, and you'd better believe it's digging it's little claws into his hair more tightly as it sees you approaching, Tim.]

Can you see it? Can you get it out?

[Nesting bat might rip out some hair like that, and Tim is biting his lip and telling himself this is Not Funny.]

I can see it. Just close your eyes. [And he's tossing the towel over the bat. Disorientation! Scratching is not allowed.]

[Nesting bat gives a series of high pitched screeches, and HUNKERS DOWN DEEPER IN THE HAIR. Don't make it leave it's lovely nest, Tim!]

Don't scare it! It'll give me rabies if it's scared!

[Hovering deed thief bat decides that this would be a good time to DIVEBOMB TIM.]

[THE BATCAVE BATS NEVER DID THIS TO HIM. HE USED TO FEED THEM DAMN IT.] That's not how you get rabies, you-- shit!

[Which is apparently the sound Tim makes when ducking an dodging a deed thief bat. He leaves the towel draped over Prefect's head. Get used to it, nesting bat, that is your new home. :|] Do you have a towel, or a a sheet or something? ...An extra shirt?

I have all of those things. Why is there a towel on my head, Comrade?

[He lifted the towel slightly to peek out at Tim. Nesting bat peeked out as well.]

[And Tim reached out to push the towel back down. Gently. No peeking, nesting bat. :|] To keep it calm. [Sort of.] And so I can grab it without it trying to take a hunk out of my hands. I'll need something else for [he's trying to swallow a snort] the one with the deeds.

[Which means it's time to make another careful attempt to pull nesting bat away from Prefect's hair.]
