Our comic of the month for October is Ventura City Drifters. Discuss it with other forumites here!
Axel was already awake, making breakfast for everyone with the aid of a small campfire and some of the supplies. His sleeves were rolled up, exposing a mixture of old scars and ancient burns dotting his forearms - nothing out of the ordinary for a veteran troll hunter or Cleanser, but still an alarming number of injuries.Ylva attacked a large thigh bone happily - where she'd gotten it, nobody knew, but she seemed to be having fun with the femur.
Rúnar took a moment to consider the bone. It wasn't fresh, so the wolf didn't kill anyone during the night. It didn't have the signs of the Illness, either. So... grave robbing? Desecration?...maybe best he doesn't involve himself. Not after yesterday.
Axel gave Rúnar a slight nod, and handed him a plateful of food. The big man's expression was unreadable.
:iceland: "Ah, thank you" Rúnar said, accepting it. "And good morning. Are you feeling well?" he asked as he sat down.
Axel cocked his head, then nodded. "Been better, but had worse," he grunted in thickly accented Icelandic.
:iceland: "That is good, I would say. If you have had no signs of a concussion yet, you will likely be well" he said. "Still, it might be wise to ask Sanni for a second opinion."Rúnar's face had a bruise from Elin's punch, but it looked as if it was several days old.
Axel nodded. :iceland: "Water under bridge?" he offered.
:iceland: "In my book, it already was" he said, offering him a hand to shake.
After a moment's hesitation, Axel shook Rúnar's hand. A large knife appeared in the big man's other hand. He offered it to Rúnar, hilt-first.
ಠ_ಠ:iceland: "I do not think I require this knife" he said, very stiff.
:iceland: "It's a gift," Axel said.
