[Closed to Psiionic/Their Apartment]
She'd gone to sleep early, trusting everyone in their abode to get back safe. Well, she'd missed Psiionic as he'd gone off somewhere but after a circle of the town, she'd accepted he'd come home when he wanted. He was probably off laying on the grass somewhere. Honestly, if she hadn't planned to get up while it was still light, she'd have spent more energy and time on her search. Still, she isn't so deep a sleeper that she doesn't wake when the door opens and Psiioniic comes in.

"Hey, you're back?" She yawned widely, rubbing her eyes as she sits up, "I missed you, what was up?"

[Skyway]

The Disciple had headed out onto the Skyway an hour before dusk, a lethal knife she'd filched stuffed between her waist and a belt and mammoths on her mind. She'd seen them before, but not enough to know if they had a particular place they liked to stay, a watering hole, or even a den. She stretched her arms over her head and walked off into the Skyway. She'd find one alright.

It didn't occur to her to wonder how to get it back to Bastion until she'd already dragged her knife through its throat and was sitting on top of its gutted carcass. She was winded, mammoth fur was thick and coarse and it had taken ages for it to stop moving. Gutting had taken a whole other hour and she was a mess. At least the skyway made throwing away the undesirable parts an easy task. Just a toss over the edge. Still, it left her with more beast than she could possibly carry and no way to drag it. She wasn't sure the pendant would make a path that big. She stood up and peeked over the horizon. She could see Bastion at least, a hour's walk away. Huh. Maybe she could get some help.

Waving frantically might not be the best solution.


[Near the River]

It was bright morning sun finally and while it was a blessing to have a clear bright day, it still meant she was fighting the warmth. She'd ended up cutting it into chunks after she'd skinned it, but her work was hardly over. Seperating bone from flesh, turning chunks of meat into managable sizes and drying the meat all took work. A couple large flat rocks were pressed into service as a place to dry thin slices and she had a fire worked up to smoke some meat as well. The faster the better but she was still sure some of this meat would have to come home with people to be cooked or kept in refrigerators.

She still had blood up to her elbows and in splotches over her face and outfit. If there was ever a time she looked like wild, it was now. Of course, this is the time she asks for help.

"Hey--do you know anyone who can help? I knew I should have gone for a smaller one."

The orange in his mouth is waggled defiantly at her but then there's a pause. He seems to think on something before the words rearrange themselves.

Seriously, she should know his bad habits by now. Rind and all, and she's lucky he doesn't eat the central bit too. At the return question, he finally lets the orange pop from his mouth to rest beneath him and licks at the juice staining his mouth.

And with those words hovering in the air, he watches her carefully for her reaction.

And with that, he's going to stuff the orange right back into his mouth.

But he unravels some of the blankets, opening them up and allowing her to burrow inside besides him.

That's an acceptable method of moving his oranges, and he lets himself sink against her again, eyes slipping halfway shut contentedly.
