vagh - Singing and Hunting Go Together Like Hunting and Singing.

Well! How went the flood? Did anyone catch anything? A feast of languages, at least, for tonight? My Goddess! How go you?

...I haven't the faintest idea what you're talking about, but it certainly sounds interesting.

[general-chang.livejournal.com]

I was speaking of the flood. There must have been tales to be heard.

[cantblameagirl]

Oh! Well, I found an adorable mouse, who claimed not to be adorable.

[general-chang.livejournal.com]

Indeed? [He's making an effort, but adorable mice are

nowhere

on his list of priorities.]

[cantblameagirl]

Yes. And h was not being eaten by h is inmate. Who was a cat. I think.

What did you find?

[general-chang.livejournal.com]

Are you referring to that Ned?

[cantblameagirl]

Possibly!

[general-chang.livejournal.com]

Hmm.

[cantblameagirl]

Did you come across him too?

[general-chang.livejournal.com]

I saw his post. Little rodents don't interest me.

[cantblameagirl]

Oh. Well.

What does interest you?

[general-chang.livejournal.com]

Tales of battle, of intrigue. Weaponry. Strategies. Things of that nature.

[cantblameagirl]

Did you find any of that while everyone was an animal?

[general-chang.livejournal.com]

Oh, a few snippets. Only Coyolxauhqui took it upon herself to actually hunt, while they were animals. Something I should have done myself, perhaps, but the large amount of domestic pets led me to believe it wasn't worth it.

Also, we would not have been aloud to consume the meal. Little point in hunting if you don't intend on eating.

[cantblameagirl]

The point was always the payout, for me.

[general-chang.livejournal.com]

There are many form of pay. But I agree with you. On principle.

[cantblameagirl]

Good enough for me! Selling people turned animals probably wouldn't have gone very well, though.

[general-chang.livejournal.com]

You might have had luck with those Romans, though I believe they had changed also.

[cantblameagirl]

See! No one to buy.

[general-chang.livejournal.com]

Too bad.

[cantblameagirl]

Exactly.

[leadsthestars.livejournal.com]

I fought with many animals, but did not catch anything. I have teeth for my efforts. Teeth from a long lizard.

[general-chang.livejournal.com]

Yet this lizard survived?

[leadsthestars.livejournal.com]

It did. Through weakness of my own, I could not overcome it without a blade. It was a very grand fight though.

[general-chang.livejournal.com]

I wish I had been there to see it.

[leadsthestars.livejournal.com]

You can see the teeth, if you so wish. The cipactli snapped at my legs as I went past, so I hopped on his back and beat in his snout.

[general-chang.livejournal.com]

His teeth? Hmm, as trophies go... Do you plan on making a necklace? I knew a man who created a chess set out of cob'lat teeth.

[leadsthestars.livejournal.com]

Perhaps a necklace - perhaps something else. They are very sharp...

[general-chang.livejournal.com]

But short?

Private

[leadsthestars.livejournal.com]

Yes, but short. We had clubs with pointed edges - maquahuitl. I plan to make one of those, but I need the club first.

Private

[general-chang.livejournal.com]

I shall keep an eye out for a suitable piece of wood.

Private

[leadsthestars.livejournal.com]

I thank you, General Chang.

Who is your warden?

Private

[general-chang.livejournal.com]

The one called Aleera.

Private

[leadsthestars.livejournal.com]

I have not heard mention of this warden. I shall have to watch for them.

Private

[general-chang.livejournal.com]

Indeed she has been quiet lately.

Private

[leadsthestars.livejournal.com]

This must be why. I have kept watch on what I could and did not see her.
