Thanks.

[She's still flushed with pleasure over it, to be honest. She looks over at him, curious as they go to collect their prizes.]

I didn't know you were a hunter. I thought you were more of a ... I don't know, sword warrior type. You shoot like you were born with a bow.

[samahl]

Oh, yes. I've always used a bow. Merrick is the dual welder. When we hunted together for our Clan, I would always be at a distance and he up close.

[the_effect_she_has]

Well, the way you took down that last one. [She mimicked the shot.] You shoot like you can taste which way the air is going, Cyril.

[samahl]

Which, I think, is saying that I shoot like I'm Dalish. [He's teasing lightly here. There are some very good archers in the Inquisition who aren't Dalish, after all. Many in fact.]

[the_effect_she_has]

No, you shoot like an archer. You just happen to be Dalish. [Is Katniss's response. She's not a good archer because she's an elf-blood, after all. So Cyril gets a light elbow for his trouble as well.]

Can I have the skins and horns? I can trade them in town for information.

[samahl]

Yeah of course.

First, let's get them to camp so we can skin and prepare them.

[the_effect_she_has]

[She hefted two deer over her shoulders.]

We should go hunting more often. I'll split the profits with you.

[samahl]

I'd really like that. [He says it as he gathers his share.] It would give us both an excuse to get away for a bit.

[the_effect_she_has]

[She exhaled, deeply, before she smirks over her shoulder at him.]

Getting that same edgy feeling between your shoulder blades? Get out, out, and run as fast you can?

[samahl]

[He chuckles a bit]

A little.

[the_effect_she_has]

Well, then you found a good running companion.

[She stated simply, eyes warm.]
