Rosa didn't quite understand most of this arithmancy, but it was interesting... she got her sticks and tied two of them together with real knots, on the scouting way. then she tied two other sticks together and put all of them up, tying a horizontal stick between the two, making it some sort of tentshape. it was still a bit wobbly, so she tied one stick between one left front paw and one right back paw and another one between the others. then she put it on the table again. it was really stable. she grabbed three of the other sticks and tied them together on the same way she'd done with the two sticks. then she stuck the sticks in different directions, and it was standing, stiff and not wobbly, except for when she pushed it in one direction. she looked at the remaining three sticks and wondered what to do with those.
