WARNINGS: preparing game meat? could get messy

((Action or prose is good!))
For people with jobs, finding something in the woods to eat was probably not a thing that happened often. But seeing as Inuyasha decided 'Tree sulking' was a sufficient job, and school was for chumps, he had plenty of time to find what was in De Chima's woods to eat. (As much as he liked snack foods, too much of them gave him a headache.). Eventually, he caught an idea.

Nonah (Open Prompt! Early Morning)

A few car rides and persistent leaping later, he'd find himself in Nonah... with an enormous boar flopped over his shoulder. But that's not all, his other shoulder held a basket full of small tree branches - some bearing fruit. You know, just dog things. He was definitely in a hurry, leaping from rooftop to rooftop - mainly because there was so much time he had before he could prepare this thing.

Every once in a while he'd drop down to ground level to.. well, sniff the sidewalk, with little regard to how very out of place he was in a big city. The mix of smells here was even worse than in De Chima, and it was starting to really piss him off!

Outside N5 (10 AM, what the heck)

Eventually, Inuyasha found himself in the backyard of one of the government residences: Nonah 5.

This was definitely the house he wanted, so he approaches the screen door and tries to open it - only to find it was stuck. What the hell? He could probably force open the lock, but breaking into Koromaru's house wasn't exactly the best way to say hi.

So he goes for loudly rapping on the door with his knuckles instead, face ungracefully pressed into the glass of the sliding door so he can stare blankly inside.

"Oy!"

November 14 - Inside Nonah 05

[rassera]

[It was about early afternoon by the time Kaneda gets home. Spending time outside after that little fiasco really helped--he couldn't stand being cooped up inside the house. His head had mostly healed, and the soreness in his neck gone. So why not take advantage of the ability to walk your injuries off?


Clearly he cannot leave the house for long without something happening, though. He enters Nonah 05, removing his jacket and tossing it onto the back of the couch when he...notices something. Capsule isn't there to greet him. And by now he knows that when that happens, either Tetsuo's home (unlikely, right now) or Ken's taking him for a walk.

And the leashes were still there.

Meandering through the living room, he takes a quick tour of his room (and maybe peeking inside Tetsuo's) to make sure the dog wasn't just sleeping, before he wanders the entire house. The closer he gets to the kitchen, right when he re-enters the living room, he can smell something.

And whatever it was made him want to promptly vomit, honestly. Curiosity wins as he takes a step into the kitchen. Seeing--



...




Inuyasha. Preparing a wild (pig?) pig in the kitchen. Blood was everywhere, and some lesser edible parts of the pig piled...ugh. Let's skip over that. But that solves the mystery of Capsule, who seems to be sitting right by the table, watching as Inuyasha does...that thing. With that same dog-smile he always has.


Okay, maybe he conked his head harder than he thought.]



The hell...?!

[tsundog]

[Inuyasha had taken off his fire-rat robe and sat it on the nearest free table. The layer underneath was white, but it'd be easier to spot any bloodstains and wash them out after he was done. His sleeves were rolled up and he was busy getting bone fragments out of the loins he'd cut just a few hours earlier.

Everything was mostly prepared, fortunately, with the hide left out to dehydrate, one of the tusks saved for Ken as a gift, and the meats and organs arranged in whatever plastic containers he could find.

Cutting a strip out, he holds it over Capsule's head for the dog to eat, only noticing Kaneda after he'd stepped inside. Now it was his turn to crack a smarmy grin.]

[Kaneda's appearance wasn't a surprise, his stink was all over this house, but Inuyasha was kind of amused that he'd been allowed to occupy his entire kitchen for the day to make a meal for his housemates. Noticing Kaneda's nauseous expression, he gestures a thumb at the less edible pile of pig parts.]

You want the smell gone? Go throw that out while I finish the rest of this.

[rassera]

[Where does Kaneda even start with this scene. Not only is this asshole dog in his house, but he has a pig(?) in the kitchen, bloodstains spotting the counter and sink, and overall acting like he'd been living in this place since the start. 'Your housemates' you don't even live here you stupid dog. His eyes drift to Capsule, clicking his tongue twice and tilting his head towards the living room.

And just like that, Capsule notices his master there, scurrying to his feet and trotting over to him, looking at him as if the world revolved around him. It's unspoken except for a soft pant, but the 'words' should be clear to Inuyasha.

This is Kaneda! He's my favourite! I'm a dog!

Reaching down to scritch at the puppy's ears, he smiles a moment before looking back up at Inuyasha. Because that still leaves one more problem.]

Sorry, when did we start letting mangy mutts into this house?


Did I miss something?

[tsundog]

[He feels a little pity as he watches Capsule leave to attach himself to his master. Wow. It was unfortunate such a cute dog was so enthusiastic about Kaneda of all people. But eh, if that's what he wants.]

Calm the hell down. I'm making this for Ken and Koromaru.

[Inuyasha goes back to preparing the remaining cuts.]

You can have a cut of liver if you want. It's good for someone so scrawny.

[rassera]

[He's not sure how Inuyasha met Ken, but he always did trust the kid to have a good judge of character. After all, this is the same boy who saw good in Tetsuo even after the August Swear-In. Either his standards are really low or he has a lot of faith in people. Either way, he starts to walk over, pulling more down on his gloves as he grabs the plastic container of organs and less desirable parts of the pig to dispose of them properly. Because no way are those getting preserved.

The comment, though, doesn't go unnoticed as he reaches over, tugging gently on one of those ears.]

Oi, Wan-chan! Shouldn't that be my line? Can't even do more than a bruise to a guy like me...you need to build yourself up!

[He lets go immediately, hand going to pat his knuckles against Inuyasha's side.]

Don't worry, we've got puppy food that builds muscle!

[tsundog]

[You're lucky he was busy with something pal or he might have to do something about all this touchy crap you're pulling on him!!]

Is that why you asked that girl to heal you? I hope not.

[He stops to brandish the claws in one hand - looking particularly fearsome covered in boar juice.]

Besides, I was going easy on you.

[rassera]

[If that's attempting to scare him, you've got a long way to go with this one, Inuyasha. Fear just isn't something he DOES.]

Nothing wrong with asking a cute girl to heal you. Especially one that had YOU making friends with the pavement with two words.

[He smirks, dumping those organs into a plastic bag.]

Yeah, that why you let me stab your eye? Cause you were going easy on me?

[tsundog]

[That fucking hurt by the way ASSHOLE. He gives Kaneda the biggest stink-eye ever because he's always so UNBEARABLE.]

Yeah, I was. If I wasn't, you'd be in little ribbons like this pig.

[Don't mind it he lifts up one of the ribs to make his point. Those could be YOUR RIBS, buddy.]

[rassera]

[GOOD you deserve it after that fuckin' punch to his liver you son of a bitch. Actually that's not entire accurate because your mom was the human one, huh...]

I'm shaking, wan-chan.

[You're in HIS house, buddy. Remember that.]

Hey, is it edible?

[Because right now he's craning his neck over your shoulder to get a good look at that meat.]

[tsundog]

[As far as he's concerned, you're in Koromaru's house. He doesn't have to listen to you.]

Of course it is, if your delicate little human stomach can handle it.

[Stomach. Liver. Whatever. He bruised it good and his only regret is that you didn't get to lay on a couch for a week dealing with it. He continues cleaning up the piece in his hands, gently scraping the remaining fragments off the cut.]

[rassera]

[Yes you do because it is STILL not your house!]

Haha! If my stomach's delicate, then yours must be...what's the word?

Dainty.

[He walks over to the stove, turning it on.]

Oi, you ever cook the shit you kill?

[tsundog]

Yeah? Do you have any fire? I remember smelling some salt around here, too.

[Because he doesn't know what the hell that box is and he's not particularly in the mood to find out.]

[rassera]

[With a little shoo, he moves Inuyasha out of the way to grab some of that meat, and then heading to the fridge to pull out some rice. Granted, it was from the takeout place, but it worked for now. He wasn't boiling new rice for this. Grabbing an egg too, he stands up, setting up shop just to the side of the stove.]

Salt? It's gotta be around here somewhere. Check the cabinet?

[The frying pan was a little low, but it'd do for some fried rice. Letting it heat up, he puts the meat in there to sizzle. Turning around to lean his butt against the stove to wait.]

[tsundog]

[He stops to give Kaneda a glare for tAKING HIS STUFF WITHOUT ASKING. You'd better plan on sharing some of that stir fry with all the trouble he went through to prepare this shit.]

[But then he's distracted by the blue flame of the stove, squatting to stare at it behind the protective metal. Woah!?]

It's so small... Is this what you really cook with?

[rassera]

[Excuse you, but weren't you just using their kitchen to prepare your pig. Don't even start with 'taking things that aren't yours. Not that Kaneda really lets that glare affect him. If he was affected by a glare, he would have never have survived a lifetime with Tetsuo.

The meat crackles and pops as it cooks, the smell wafting through the kitchen while he moves it around the pan with some chopsticks, turning it when he feels like it's got enough brown on it.]

We've evolved since fire pits, wan-chan. Now we can turn it on and off.

[tsundog]

[A pause.]

You don't know how to light and put out a normal fire?

[Asking the important questions. How has this boy survived his whole life? What does he do when he doesn't have this big block with him?]

[rassera]

[His brows furrow.] Of course I do, dumbass. I meant--you know...--

[No he doesn't, Kaneda. But that's okay, he'll show him what he means. His hand goes to the knob, turning the stove off, then on again a second later.

Then off, and on again. The little flame flickering back and forth each time.]
