Two glass-green eyes widen in concentration, black pupils dilating. The tiny orange kitten focuses hard on the medicine den; inside lies a tantalizing collection of mysterious plants and cobwebs and other such trinkets. The medicine den has fascinated Ash because she's never allowed in it! Last time she tried to mess with the mystery plants, Beesong said some of them were poisonous. Which is the most exciting thing ever, so now she has to play with some.
Now, there are a lot of ways Ash might resolve this issue. For example, she could get sick or hurt so then she'd HAVE to be in the medicine den a bunch. Ash has spent a long, long, long, long time (like at LEAST ten minutes) ruminating over her options, and at last she has concocted her plan: Ash's Spectacular Scheme.
"Okay," she whispers to Gill. They're crouched in a patch of reeds at the edge of camp, which is Part One of Ash's Spectacular Scheme. She really has to be very clever these days because there are so many grown-ups telling her not to do things. They'll scold her and scruff her and drag her back to the nursery because "that's dangerous, Ash." Very silly of them really. Don't they know about Having Fun, the most highly-prioritized priority of all time?
"First I'ma cause a distraction. A real big one." This is Part Two of Ash's Spectacular Scheme. It's critically dependent on her ability to be very, very, VERY loud. So it should go fine.
Now for Part Three. "Then, while everybody's distracted, Gill, you're up. Your part of the plan is to sneak into the medicine den and get an herb. Or even two or three herbs. Make sure you get the really cool-looing ones, okay? This is a matter of highest priority. The fate of our afternoon rests on your shoulders. Are you in?"
As an afterthought, because Gill probably deserves some warning, she adds, "Oh! And some of them are super deadly poisonous! So be careful!"
i'll give them shelter like you've done for me
