Hanako shot him a sour look, tail twitching a little as she tried-and failed-not to linger on past grievances. Time wasn't enough to heal these wounds, not when Hanako kept stubbornly picking at them.

Though the temptation to deny him one was strong indeed, enough to make her ear twitch in consideration.
"I'm setting octopus traps." If he cared to pay attention he'd' realise they were her favourite. The one meal she'd nagged him for when she was all nakey and round. "If my presence doesn't make you want to heave then you can help, if you like."
If nothing else his muscle would be helpful, the pots weren't heavy but another set of helping paws would mean less trips for her. Picking up one by the rope she began to drag it to the water, the waves lapping over her fiery paws she couldn't help but wrinkle her nose at how chilly the water was. Nothing that would have her freezing to death, but in her mind she'd certainly deserve to huddle up to the fire by the time she was done.
"We will have to swim a little out." She explained, recalling he wasn't the best of swimmers. This thought made her smile, all wry and cunning. "Octopus like places to hide. I set some earlier, so once we place these, take the lid and check out the others. If there's an octopus inside put the lid on and pull it up. "
