*i settled onto my knees next to the fire, the firelight casting flickering shadows and lights over the contours of my bare, smooth, naked body as i concentrated on sewing on the last of the buttons.*

and says to CashaPanther Guard**Pant:
*Having sewn in the last button, i tugged carefully on each of them, making sure they were securely sewn on. Satisfied, i carefully laid the other flap of the vest over the button flap, lining it up carefully, then took the chalk and marked places to incise the buttonholes.*

*i raised an eyebrow as i listened to the captive arguing with jessenia. He showed a lot of bravado, i thought to myself, considering his helpless, hopeless situation. If i were hungry, i'd be begging. i shrugged mentally, and took the small knife, cutting into the leather along the small chalk marks, carefully slicing little button holes in the leather.*

and says to CashaPanther Guard**Pant:
*i took the needle, licking another thread and threading it through the eye, and pulled the thread through, evening up the ends and tying them in a little knot. Then i pierced the leather, pulling the thread through and bringing the needle around and through the end of the doubled-up thread, tugging the small knot against the leather and securing the end of the thread as i pierced the leather again, right next to the first point, continuing the thread around the edge of the buttonhole.*

*i finished the first button hole and put my finger through it, testing and stretching it to make sure it was secure. It was. i then laid it over the button to make sure it was in the right place. It was. Satisfied, i moved on to the next button hole, again threading the needle and running it through the leather at the edge of the hole.*

and says to CashaPanther Guard**Pant:
*i finished another button hole, moving more rapidly through the work now, tying off the thread by running the needle back under several loops of thread, cutting it with the knife, and carefully tying it off with another small knot, securing the thread around the edge of the hole.*

*An ahn went by, and i finished the rest of the button holes. i laid the hole flap over the button flap, and carefully fitted each button through its hole. They all fit perfectly, and the vest was still even in fit. i smiled, relieved i hadn't ruined the item. i tugged it this way and that; the buttons held. All was secure. i folded the vest over one arm, and took up the thread, needle, knife, and chalk in my other hand. i rose, stretched backwards for a moment, then strode off toward Casha's hut to put the items in there.*
