[Lucas makes a small sound of disappointment before trotting over to retrieve the other end of the rope. He'll walk back a few more paces this time.]
Maybe I should give it a running start.
[Lucas coughs a little to mask the embarrassed flush on his cheeks before squinting up at the mark again. One more time. The boy sets the lasso a-twirling... and when it's revolving at the right speed, begins to dash forward.]
Hah!
[A jump off the ground! Lucas manages a pretty good height before he sends the end of the lasso spinning up into the sky. ...This time, it smacks straight into the side of the church without reaching the full height of the throw. Bad timing.]
...Maybe there are clues in the grass we haven't found. Or dirt. We haven't looked at all the dirt yet.
