Oh, the joy of a successful hunt in leafbare. She had to catch her breath, it was a tense chase. The rabbit had nearly gotten away. But there she stood with a decent sized rabbit at her paws.

Jasperglare wasn't so lucky, she noticed as he came trudging over with a more pitiful looking rabbit. He looked just as bad, but he still kept his unnerving grin.

"I caught a rabbit." He said.

No shit.

"Well, mines better." Spiderbloom replied looking to her catch with a prideful grin.

"UGH it is."

"Let's get these home. Some cats still haven't eaten."

"When did you become so CHARITABLE."

Spiderbloom scoffed. "Can't survive on an empty stomach, stupid."

The two made their way back to camp, Spiderbloom taking the lead across the snow blanketed moors. She didn't announce her arrival to camp, she simply placed her rabbit down on the ground where the fresh kill pile was supposed to be. Jasperglare tossed his beside it and promptly made his way to a far corner of the camp to curl up and wallow in sickness.

But Spiderbloom stayed, grooming her paws from a hunt well done. She briefly worried about Jasperglare, but not for long. Guy has fun smacking coyote snoots, he's fine.

"It's hard being the functional one..." She muttered.

Not that he wasn't functional, he was just......He had dust for brains.
 

Oh, even on dry days came a blessing! On boring nights devoid of blood, or days with no sweetened end- rabbits, in the winter-time! Two, though one noticeably bigger than the other- and Mallowlark did wonder what exactly made some rabbits fatter. Did they eat more berries and grass and whatever? Did they eat each other? Now, that would be some phenomenon! Rabbits growing so hungry in the winter, ravenous like their carnivorous hunters, that they destroyed each other!

He doubted they had the intellect for it. But a rabbit, posed with a moral question- it was such a ridiculous idea that, completely alone, Mallowlark burst into a bout of laughter.

He continued to cackle even as he made his unsettlingly lopsided way toward Spiderbloom, smile splayed upon his face and baring fangs up to his impossibly round eyes. Lightless, they settled statuesque to meet her own- friends in conversation kept eye-contact, after all. "Good catch!! Must've been hard to find," he noted, snow crunching lightly as an inky paw tapped the settled surface. Head tilted just off-kilter, Mallowlark awaited eagerly for the story- to find and hunt a rabbit, that was a feat! He was only good at the former.

Still quite use to the customs of rogue life, seeing cats like Spiderblossom just give up their prey was a culture shock to him. Goatfoot was not so charitable on his own hunts, often numerous bites were taken out of his prey before it ended up in the pile. While it was easy for some to be polite and share Goatfoot found it immensely difficult for his food aggression not to be triggered, he was used to living a dog-eat-dog lifestyle where some nights you just about killed cats for the right to eat prey.

He can't even help it, when Spiderblossom drops the rabbit he pulls it out of the fresh-kill pile and shamelessly gets to satisfying his growling belly. Anyone who got in his way might be met with a snarl and a swat of a paw. Unlike Mallowlark he could not give a damn about how the hunter caught the rabbit, all he cared about was that the large creature was at his paws.
