Cubefall?

[whipped_weapon]

It's some time later, after his talk with Tyler,  that the strange magic window that's found everyone else finds Zak.

< Today, Milliways marks the Cybertronian holiday of Cubefall, the anniversary of the day upon which the Allspark first landed on the rocky world that would become Cybertron. Would you like to sample some possible reconfigurations

The large build and obvious health of the creature become even more noticeable as the griffin gets closer. The grin is, admittedly, a bit surprising; Talaerion has never noticed birds to have a particular ability or interest for making that expression

The griffin had caught sight of the demon-bunny early and had begun to stir, to lever himself up as fast as he could from his floor-flat position, (not very fast, as he was stretched out like a rug and was still in torpor from eating so much besides) but apparently he didn't need to. The drow-turned-griffin warily eyed the mage that was petting his feathery head as the mage grabbed the bunny by one ear. He let himself sink back down to the ground, (a few inches, only) eyelids lowering to half-mast.

"What do you plan to use it for?" Zak asked Talaerion, eyeing the rabbit-popsicle curiously, since Talaerion had already said he had no use for such things as food.

"I'm not really certain," Talaerion admits, looking down at the animal. "Maybe Bar will hold onto it, in case you get hungry later? Mostly I just wanted to stop it from giving it to me in the neck. I could probably find a use for it if you don't want it, though. Rabbit fur is warm, whether its former owner was demonic or not, and Ferelden tends to be a bit chilly." He grins broadly. "Maybe some demon-bunny underwear, for those unusually chilly mornings."

He'd do it, too.

"Perhaps, but I could always go hunting later." Zak allowed, tail-a-twitching in amusement.

However, Talaerion's last words are not so palatable to the drow's mind.
The griffin gives Talaerion a surprisingly clear disgusted expression, conveying his opinion of that idea with surprising facility for a face that's all feathers, over-large beak and large golden eyes.

"..." The silence is also equally eloquent. It conveys very clearly 'I have no words for how strange and disgusting I find the idea of your underwear.'

Is the griffin slightly green? Yes, yes, he is.

"...Can we please not talk about such things?" The griffin says, faintly.
He feels morbidly curious, and yet slightly nauseous.

Mage. Underwear. Fur. This does not compute.

"Hey, don't knock the idea until you've woken up and had to break the ice on the river just to bathe. It'd help, is all I'm saying." He looks speculatively at the carcass. "And it would give Alistair nightmares for weeks."

Especially if he left the head intact on the front, like a codpiece, and mounted a couple of faceted garnets in the eye sockets.

He does, however, let the topic lie after that. He doesn't need the griffin suddenly and forcibly ejecting that many chewed and partially digested rabbits all over his boots.

It would have given Zaknafein nightmares too. Zak would probably have barfed chunks of half-digested rabbits all the faster if he'd heard about the bits about leaving the head intact. The universe does not go there, Zak would have said.

Fortunately, the mage seems to feel merciful enough not to ruin the griffin's digestive system today. Thank the gods.

"If warmth is what you had in mind, you could likely line a cape, a jacket and leggings, with rabbit fur?" Zak ventured. He just doesn't want the codpiece thing. Universe not go there.

It's unfortunate that there's only been one rabbit to skin for that, but Zak would be willing to donate all the rabbits he will eat in the next day or so to the cause... as long as it doesn't involve underwear.
