Even if that wasn't a bluff, I'm hardly impressed. They're both large and don't bother to hide themselves. I suppose it doesn't matter, though. Even though you look like a wild animal, I'm sure Malik is keeping you fed well enough.

Like you've got room to talk, weren't you a slightly more mobile side of veal?

Then isn't it even worse that I managed just fine outside on my own, while you are still staying in your cabin? You've gone too soft with all of your technology. I doubt you'd even be able to catch anything, assuming you could first locate it.

...Are you honestly trying to goad me into something?

*laughing* That depends on whether or not you are capable of it, doesn't it?

... what are you getting at?

Diminutive size aside, you are a hawk. I bet you've hardly taken advantage of your new skills at all.

You still haven't got to the point.

If I have to lay it out so bluntly for you, then I think I already know the answer. Can you hunt? Have you actually managed to use the speed and sight you have been gifted? I see you've at least figured out your wings.

Last time I jumped into something, I ended up like this. So you'll understand if I've got a few questions to ask.

And I can hunt as good as expected.

*ttly not holding back laughter*

-As a bird could, Cesare.

If you say so. I'll believe it when I see it.

I give in, how do we go about this?

And if it involves a jangly bell and my leg, we're done.

*he has gloves! putting them on :)*

Do you mean the sport? Or do you not know how to hunt at all?

I've read how it was done, just I've never been involved in it.

I'll overlook the bells and hood. Why don't you start by flying up and seeing if you can't spot anything? Circle, and widen your scope as you go.

Got anything in mind? I need something go go by, unless you want to try the stuffed dormice trick.

It's really a pity you aren't any larger. Why don't you start off with looking for a sparrow? You are a sparrowhawk, after all.

Right, right. [Taking off!]

*waiting!*

[a few minutes, and then there's a screech and the hawk takes a dive.

then there's a lot of scuffling]

*......oh hey, maybe he actually managed to do it*

[coming back, ruffled all to hell, holding a bird in his claws]

While that was an absolutely fantastic time, what's next?]

You can eat it if you want. I'd do it quickly, though, in case Camp revives it.

How was it?
