snakes on a plain

A little disappointing that she could resolve the issue so easily. If nothing else, he could entertain himself with the thought of her friend laughing at her when she brought the harmless garden snake to them. It would be a shame he wouldn't be there to see it, but such is life. He'd gotten a little revenge on her from throwing the snake at him, and wiped some of the smugness off her face. What happened to her now wasn't his concern. "Good luck" he told her as she turned away from him again.

Shaking his head he wondered what Delphi would think when he told her what she had missed out on. Likely her knowledge of healing would have made the whole thing sound more plausible. Already, his thoughts were turning to his next meal. Perhaps he could hunt a few snakes to take back to Delphi.
