But those were her choices - help the Captain or lose out on her axe.
So that's why she was crawling the few feet that separated her from her new foe, and wrapping her arms and legs around one of the girl's legs. She was like lichen on a tree, yeah? Very red lichen.
"Hullo," she glanced up at the girl, but no waving. Her hands were busy holding on. "Sometimes you have to be the wolf to destroy the wolf, miss." She still had two more vegetables left in her artillery before she would need to restock, so Soph quickly pointed her wand at the carrot in her hand and cast, "Francesco," and only got ONE LAST launch at Hooksteed before TOBES GOT HIM IN THE CUPBOARD. HA.
She laughed aloud in victory. Suuuuuuch sweet triumph.
But then two arms and two legs were suddenly locked around Sophie's legs, and she raised an eyebrow as she peered down at... Dot?
"Dot, y'know you didn't ACTUALLY have to capture me, right?" Wiggle, wiggle. "Your captain's just been captured himself anyway, so... m'pretty sure it's game over." Even though it hadn't REALLY been a game, but Soph would use the light terminology to keep from startling the girl too much. Though, she seemed... surprisingly calm at the whole charade.
Was she gonna let go?
