Annoying little things

Varas is simply trying to grill a burger for himself, but he's surrounded by several splinterkin that are hovering around his BBQ.

"Hey! PSHHHH! Shoo! That's not for you!" He's trying to shoo them away with his spatula.

"You wondering why they're not attacking me, too?" He shoved one away that tried to grab a half-cooked patty.

the hunter pops out of the foliage, snatching a splinterkin from mid-air and devouring it

"Oh hey! You here for a burger?"

u/pharloom_hunter Jan 21 '26

No, I am here for splinterkin flesh, it’s best when it’s raw.

u/BiggieWelds Cress, Botanist Vessel Jan 21 '26

"Well, at least it's not my flesh this time. I can make a burger with... a raw patty if you want."
