ITP: a brief respite from rain

[watchmycannon]

[SO IT HAS BEEN RAINING and you know what comes after rain: rainbows worms.

A young boy seems to be collecting them]

--And I shall take this one back with me whole and sell it.

((workninja! idk I just wanted somewhere to play with further rain-antics

*a break in the rain means it's time to go through some sword kata, but he pauses when he notices the kid gathering worms*

[leftintheright]

*relaxing slightly*

I see. While my experience with fish is different from your own, I do not believe I would eat a creature such as you describe only because he resembles a source of food where I am from.

[watchmycannon]

I think he would protest quite loudly.

[leftintheright]

Yes, I would hope so. Otherwise a fisherman might not realize he's made an error.

*...this is probably one of the stranger conversations he's had*

[watchmycannon]

Oh, no, I think you would notice. The smallest of juvenile Yama are at least five feet in height. Full-grown they are seven or eight feet. You could not catch a Yama on accident, I would not think.

[leftintheright]

...That is impressive. The fish I normally cook are very small in comparison.

[watchmycannon]

The Yama are very accomplished fighters, and well suited to the broadsword or hammer.

--How small is very small?

[leftintheright]

...I see.

Small enough to fit easily in my hand.

[watchmycannon]

...That... is indeed very small. They would not be effective fighters, I do not think.

[leftintheright]

No. They are not meant to be.

[watchmycannon]

Mm. So you've no Yama. Do you have other races besides Mitra?

[leftintheright]

...Mitra?

[watchmycannon]

...The race you and I are, I had assumed.

[leftintheright]

Humans, then.

We do not have the kind of variation you seem to have.

[watchmycannon]

Hm. That seems as though it would be... lonely. Such lack of diversity.

[leftintheright]

There are many different kinds of humans.
