Akhi! Do you wanna go hunting?! I'm all out of jerky and the animals here look tasty!

Do I ever! [He's already grabbing his jacket and (empty) thermoses for blood collection.] Should I bring anything extra?

Mmm, I can't think of anything! Though the guide I spoke to said they prefer no waste for the animals, so maybe we should share? Since I'll have to drain my game anyway, you take the blood, I take the meat and we can split the pelt as necessary?

Sure, that works for me. Just go ahead and take the pelts too. I usually can't get anything useful out of them.

[A true sign that he's a wasteful vampire: he doesn't know what to do with the pelts once he feeds on his prey.]

Oh great! Thanks Stefan, I was running low on leather too! [Now he can make some more stuff for trading! Nice~]

I'm already on my way down, would you like me to wait for you at the port entrance?

Wait. You mean you know how to work with leather?

[AKHI. This is particularly relevant information.]

In that case, save me just one - I could use a new jacket. Give me five, and I'll be right there.

Hmm, I've never made a jacket before. I'm all up for giving it a shot though! [he has no fashion sense, mikleo dresses him. save yourself stefan]

Worst case scenario, you could still use the leather for something else.

[he knows not what he has unleashed. alas . . . ]

Or uh, I can find someone this planet who knows how to make one. It's seriously no big deal.

No way, no takebacks! I'm going to make you a jacket!

-oh, I think I see you. [Sorey thrusts his hand into the air and waves.] Stefan!

Sorey! Hey!

[Stefan returns the wave, stuffing his comm device in his pocket as he rushes over. Welp, guess he'll argue about that leather jacket later.]

Thanks for waiting.

Yeah, I was totally ready to leave you behind on this hunting trip I explicitly invited you on. [SASS. Slings his arm around Stefan's shoulders anyway.]

I don't know, you could've found a ruin or something.... [He trails off, knowing exactly how he sounds as he leans over and pinches Sorey's nose.]

Also, for once, I actually read up on the animals we're hunting.

Hey. [Swats lightly] That's...probably not true. [Except that if he did, that's probably what would happen. LISTEN, OK.....

Though he's glad Stefan did some research, because Sorey totally did not.] That's great. All I know is that there are big herd animals, and some smaller wild bird species.

You're not wrong. We could hunt all of those, but we're mostly gonna be looking for a species called "water zubron."

[He fishes his device out of his pocket, flipping through photographs until he finds the pages he had scanned: descriptions and images of these large bipedal birds with their dark red plumage and blue legs.

It's not much, considering that Stefan usually punches his prey and feeds off their major arteries, but the Co'Kal were strict about no animal waste. Stefan doesn't exactly feel like angering their gracious hosts.]

[Yeah, it's also complete shit for leather.] I see. ...well, those zubrons aren't gonna hunt themselves! I'm eager to see if they taste good. [Always look on the briiiight side of life]

I bet they'll be amazing with a little sumac and olive oil...

[Mm, now he's hungry, and he doesn't even need human food.]

Plus, you're guaranteed enough feathers to stuff a few duvets.

Since it's bird game I bet I could rub it with lemon and salt and grill it...oooh... [heck]

Exactly! This is like, the perfect planet for going back to basics.

[Mm, maybe he'll even try to make musakhan - a roasted bird dish - for real this time. Who needs blood when there's fresh game?]

I know what you mean. I kind of almost want to set up camp somewhere and stay off the ship for a few days. [Swings his quiver around to check on the condition of his arrows as they make their way toward the edge of town.]

If you can afford the time, you should swing for it.

[Stefan stuffs his device back into his pocket as he walks alongside Sorey. No use in keeping it out when the signal's gonna disappear soon.]

Who knows when we'll be at a place like this again?

Especially like this one. I mean, you look up and you can see the other side of the world! [Does so now, bumping into Stefan's shoulder.] I never thought I'd see something like this.

We should take some pictures on our way back. Worth a thousand words and all – and hey, some of the rentals might be closer to the game than we are.

[He grows a little wistful at his suggestion. God, he hasn't thought about photography in a while.]

I wonder if they have topographical maps for sale anywhere. It'd be neat to see how they lay it out. [Spies that longing look on Stefan's face.] ...want to do that after we're done hunting?

Yeah, if it doesn't wear us out. [Nevermind that hunting usually energizes him!!] I'm sure they must have maps somewhere.

First things first: we hunt, and then I'll grab a cabin for you and Mikleo.

Huh?? [Grabs at his chest for a second like he's suddenly going to find Mikleo inside his soul before looking around them.] For me and Mikleo? Is Mikleo coming too?
