Gilbert, though still slightly defensive, began to loosen up and started to drop his guard. He did clamp down on his mental shields, but still got the feeling like Fangorn's heart wasn't really in to the words he was saying. Gilbert gave the tom a slight smile, not a mocking smile, or a smug one. It was a genuine smile, due to being slightly amused. "You'd be doing me a favor." He said in response to Fang's threat.
Gilbert wasn't looking for a fight, he really wasn't. But he was beginning to think that maybe getting on the tom's bad side might be the only way he can get into the warehouse. He really doubted he'd be able to find an entrance that wasn't guarded, that he could slip into. And if Tugger was still there. Though his mind did wander back to Jemima.
He knew she'd be crushed if she found out that he wound up in the warehouse too. But if he could help Tugger or get Tugger out, then she'd either forget he was in the warehouse, or his sacrifice would mean something.
"How often do you rip the throats out of cats?" Gilbert inquired, curious but his tone didn't hide the fact that he didn't believe Fangorn had actually ever done that in his life.

Fangorn shrugged. "Depends on the situation, obviously. If, for example, I've got someone who might provide valuable information, ripping their throat out wouldn't be in my best interests, would it? In your case, simply being a Jellicle puts you up considerably higher on the possibility-of-ripping-throat-out scale." He was talking nonsense. He never had ripped anyone's throat out, though he had killed them by other methods.

Gilbert watched the tom talk, with slight fascination. Gilbert couldn't help but allow a small smirk play across his face. Fangorn looked ridiculous talking about it. He knew he should be more scared, that even if Fangorn had never ripped out anothers throat, he was still dangerous. He knew Fangorn would do some damage if he really wanted to. But a part of him wanted to screw caution. He didn't really have anything to lose, and he had always wished his father had killed him a few years ago. Tugger's friendship and respect was the only good thing that had happened in his life and if he was already too late to help, then it wasn't worth it. Life.
"Well." Gilbert challenged, stupidly. "I obviously have no valuable information and I'm a jellicle who is about to escape your clutches." Gilbert knew even if he turned then and tried to run, AND Fangorn took chase, he'd never outrun the bigger tom. Unless he could find a small space to crawl into out of Fang's reach. Gilbert was significantly smaller then Fang. "What are you waiting for?"

Fangorn bristled slightly. The challenge Gilbert threw at him was tempting. He could not help but enjoy a good fight, and this filthy Jellicle was just asking for it. But he still had no real reason to hurt the tom. True, he could simply knock Gilbert out and throw him in the dungeons. But what for? He had no real use at the moment, and it wasn't as if Macavity would thank Fang for every random Jellicle he brought around. He relaxed his body and withdrew his claws, which he had unsheathed without really noticing. Then he sighed as if bored with the situation. "I've no patience for useless deadweights today. Run along, if you're going." If Gilbert chose to stay and fight, Fang certainly wouldn't walk away.
((That was a horribly long wait...I'm so sorry))

The slight smirk on Gilbert's face had almost fallen into a frown. A henchcat ignoring a challenge was rare and interesting. Still he was disappointed. He wasn't going to remove any tension from the beating he would have gotten from Fang. He was seriously coming around to the idea of him having a death wish. And Fang wasn't going to drag him back to the warehouse or even give him a tour if he asked. So his plan to get inside and help Tugger, if the tom was even there was shot down. Relaxing his face into a blank and equally bored expression, he abruptly turned away. He flicked the tom off, as he strode away.
"See ya, Fangless." Gilbert insulted as he walked down the alley, and turned down a corner, out of sight.
((Fang can either catch back up with him and we can continue this thread, or if you want to move Fangorn somewhere else, then consider Gilbert Exited from this thread. You know me, I won't mind either way. ^_^))

((Fang'll let him go...*this time*...*evil cackle*...a.k.a. I have completely lost my muse for this thread so he's going to be terribly lazy and let a Jellicle just walk away. >_<))
[exit Fangorn]
