[You can probably make an exception for evil blood-sucking songbirds, Jr.!
Alleria shoots a few more birds down, then grunts, frustrated.]
You're right; this is taking too long. We do need to get creative.
[She looks around for a moment, then gets an idea -- rummaging through her pack, she comes up with some kindling and rope, which she ties around one of her arrows. And then she grabs a flare from wherever, snaps it to life, and sets her arrow ablaze.
And then she shoots a bird.
Luckily, this actually worked how she wanted, and the bird goes flailing into several others, setting them on fire as well, who careen into others and set them aflame, and so on.
And Alleria just beams up at her work for a moment, shielding her eyes.]
[ A little surprised, but pleased, he accepts them with a nod and steps back. With a quick flick of his gaze from here to there to survey the room, Jr. tosses the coins up as high into the air as he can before aiming.
He fires three successive shots, but as they ricochet off the coins in a flashy display of pings and sparks, nearly two dozen birds are taken out before the coins all fall to the ground in a clatter.
It looks like a mere parlor trick, but an experienced marksman would know that he needed to calculate the position and angle of each coin before knowing when and where to fire in a split-second.
It might be a flashy move, but it's also surprisingly effective. If you don't mind wasting money. With a sigh, seeing how many more are left, he turns and shrugs before continuing firing. ]

[This is said rather calmly, of course; she's already on her feet and casually picking the birds off one by one with her bow.]

I don't know, get creative! Try them at a different angle, are try to use the blankets and rope to set up a tent to shield everyone.

Much quicker.

Just be careful you don't catch one of us on fire!

[She keeps on with this method until she's out of kindling, at which point she just goes back to shooting them down arrow by arrow.]

Thanks! I'll pay you back.

Parlor tricks indeed.]
With interest, I hope. [That's probably a joke.
She flashes a small, brief grin before returning to shooting down birds.]

You bet! I'll even send it over with flowers.

Mageroyal is my favorite.
[And then she'll continue firing.]
