But he had to keep trying. "I practiced on plants," he said, softly, "and sometimes on rats and things--when they're hurt or-... dead ones, just--for practice. But it's hard," he repeated. Taking a breath, trying to still his nervousness, he closed his eyes. Clawed wing-hands reached out to rest gently near Jayberry's wounds, and he focused.
He realized too late that he should probably have removed the woven plant matter from his own digits, first; it coiled farther around them, and he found himself drawing back with an--"Oh, wait, wait--I have to take this off-..."
He grimaced as it coiled tighter. It was growing painful, now.
This was bad.
