*it doesn't take long before Jace shows up, hands in his pockets, and sits down nearby*

Hi, Claude.

[tothelight]

Hey, Jace.

* flicks something soft and squishy off his knife into the river *

You eaten yet?

[blue_mind_group.insanejournal.com]

*shakes his head*

We got another new team member, and he has an appetite. I was hoping I'd catch something out here.

[tothelight]

...not as bad as Chaz, is it?

* rubbing his jaw with a wrist * Only been getting small ones around here so far. Wonder if the big ones prefer the lake.

[blue_mind_group.insanejournal.com]

Maybe worse. Chaz gets less hungry when you feed him. But it doesn't seem to bother him that much.

Probably. I usually fish up there.

[tothelight]

Maybe he's got some kind of specific dietary requirement? You know, like Perrick did.

[blue_mind_group.insanejournal.com]

That's probably what it is. *smiles a little* Maybe I'll bring back a bearbee.

How's the rest of your team doing?

[tothelight]

Heh. Don't need to tell you to be careful if you do.

They're fine, keeping food down and all. If anything Syaoran's been fussing over me being the one needing more sleep now.

[blue_mind_group.insanejournal.com]

I'll wait for one to go foraging farther. I'm not in the mood to deal with a swarm.

I'm not surprised. But it's good to hear the...effects are wearing off.

[tothelight]

...

I heard about Nico and Shell from Wolf.

[blue_mind_group.insanejournal.com]

*shoulders sag a little, and he nods*

...I thought you might have. And we've got six now.

[tothelight]

...they're being pretty efficient.

* sticking his knife in the dirt and washing the fish in the running water *

How're you holding up?

[blue_mind_group.insanejournal.com]

That's one word.

*slight shrug*

About how you'd expect. I miss Nico like mad, and I worry about them. I just...what can I do?

[tothelight]

* chewing on his bottom lip, thinking for a while. *

What do you know about this Foreman? Did Nico get to tell you anything...?

[blue_mind_group.insanejournal.com]

Not much. Just that he was going to build something, and that it was going to take a long time.

[tothelight]

Nothing Wolf didn't hear either, then.

...nhh, it's never happened before. At least that I know of. For a Judge to take a Blank out of here-- out of playing the Games, at least, for the long term... isn't that what we're meant to be here for?

[blue_mind_group.insanejournal.com]

*shakes his head*

You'd think so.

[tothelight]

Just doesn't make any sense. With all that they go on about choices...

* cleaning the knife now *

[sabra_la_npcs.insanejournal.com]

* there is a Something that may be SNEAKING towards you while you're talking *

[blue_mind_group.insanejournal.com]

Exactly. Nico would've stayed if he--

*breaks off and turns towards the Something*

[sabra_la_npcs.insanejournal.com]

* BANZAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAI pounce 8DDDDDDDD *

[blue_mind_group.insanejournal.com]

*s-surpraise puppy. catches?*

[sabra_la_npcs.insanejournal.com]

* wigglewigglewiggle yip 8( *

[tothelight]

---ah, sorry about that.

[blue_mind_group.insanejournal.com]

*...man, it's harder to be depressed with an armful of puppy. petpetpet*

It's fine.

[sabra_la_npcs.insanejournal.com]

* ...pettings are acceptable |D also eyeing FISH in claude's hand *

[tothelight]

Guess she's hunting around these parts today. Sorry, girl, this one's for our eating.

[blue_mind_group.insanejournal.com]

Maybe she followed you.
