The fenrirs were interested as well
“It’s not the best shape, as it was made with a pot… But, what do you think, Leo?”
“Wuff. Sniff… Wou!”
“So the sll is fine. Alright, why don’t you try biting it?”
“Wou… Guff. Guff… Wou! Wuff-wuff! Wou!”
“Oh, seems good.”
The rubber was about the size of a basketball, and after giving it a few bites, Leo barked and wagged her tail happily.
That was great. So she now had a toy. And the issue was resolved.
“Mr. Takumi. What is that? Is it for Leo to eat?”
“No, no. You cannot eat rubber. Leo, you can bite it all you want, but don’t swallow it, alright?”
“Wuff! Guff, guff…”
“Mama likes it!”
Leo was holding it down with her front paws and biting it happily.
“Gurr…”
“Grau? Gau.”
“Kyau!”
“Oh, everyone is watching now. Well, I’ll have to make more then.”
They were looking at Leo with rather jealous expressions.
And so I chuckled and got to work.
Even if the fenrirs didn’t know anything about toys, they beca interested after seeing how much Leo liked her rubber ball.
Though, Sherry already had one made of cloth…
Still, I did not want to use Weed Cultivation four tis in a row. So for now, I would just make on for Feri, since he was the leader.
And then I could do the others tomorrow.
As for the possibility of sharing, the fenrirs had rejected the idea.
It wasn’t really about cleanliness…they just wanted sothing for themselves.
Besides, they had helped with the search for Tilura, and I wanted to reward them.
“I’ll have to test it first, but this rubber could probably be used for the stairs too. So you don’t slip.”
“The stairs?”
“Slip…?”
While making the rubber toy for Feri, I talked to Claire and Sebastian about other uses.
“Right now, there is a carpet, so you don’t slip too easily… But it could still be dangerous.”
“I see. Yes, I have slipped a few tis when I was in a rush.”
“Yes, I think plenty of the servants have experienced the sa.”
While the floors were generally made of marble, the stairs and so other places were covered in carpets. And apparently, Claire and Sebastian had nearly slipped before.
“Another idea would be to put them on shoes. It would be even more effective.”
“What about the slippers?”
“Yes, of course.”
The rubber toy that Leo was biting had the sa general feel of rubber that I was familiar with.
So I was quite sure it would be effective.
“Shoes that do not slip. That would be nice…”
“Ah, but they might not be suited for use outdoors.”
“And why is that?”
“Because of dirt and sand. They wouldn’t be as effective when wet. Sotis, they can be even more slippery.”
“They beco slippery when wet?”
“I am pretty sure there are solutions so that it won’t happen, but… I really don’t know how to do it. In any case, when the rubber becos wet, the surface is…”
I was no expert when it ca to rubber.
And there are different types. Perhaps there is a type that can get wet. Regardless, when they do get wet, the water creates a layer between the rubber and the ground, and the friction is reduced.
