>>6072400You don't bring the BIG beer for Seafood tonight. He won't be happy with your lack of results, so it should be wasted anyway. You still have to keep up the impression of scrounging things from night to night; can't well be presenting a nice big bottle of Gnoll Glenn everytime you half-fail. He'll twig on to the pattern, and then you'll catch a clobberen. Good booz pairs best with good nooz, eh.
You present your report empty handed and brace for impact.
"Sorry Seafoods. Carnt find nuffin tonight. I'll try arder tomarrer."
"Mm. Tudi. Come here."
You do your best to walk normal.
He holds a hand out.
"Knife." He means your Dagger.
Your gorge rises with dread as you hand it over, presenting with both hands.
He puts it full length into your chest, so casual that you don't catch on, and when you next blink it's in and you're bleeding.

Seafood goes to sleep, or appears to.
You stay there until just before sun-drop (total from ~7am to ~2+pm) before Seafood turns over and waves you off with a pinkie.
You don't have time to really rest and do a proper patch of yourself or your kludge armor, just a cloth wad and wrap around your chest and then you have to start on the Ceremony.
Uff. How hells he <span class="mu-i">do</span> that.
