we don't need to fight fair

Ash kept that warm welcoming smile as the boy had agreed he had the same idea. The slight difference in his tongue interesting, but didn't bother her. She looked out towards the fowl of the falls that they had both spotted, some maybe catching on to the two's presence as they talked and were no longer part of the natural silence of the land. She spoke in a quiet voice not to let out their perch so easily. She looked back to the young man to continue their introduction, "My name is Ashelia." And then she'd look back at their targets as if thinking of the best way to go about the hunt. Not too difficult with the two of them.

"If you hide in the taller grasses by the bank, I'll go around behind them and lead them your way. And then you can catch them." It seemed easy enough she hoped, though she couldn't be sure if there were any language barriers with the way he spoke. She internally shrugged her shoulders at the thought, she knew they could make something work. "I think the ducks will be a bit easier since they are bigger, but you have to get them before they fly off." Hopefully it wouldn't be too difficult.

Soon Ash was walking out of sight to make a round on the feathered creatures, taking her time to not disturb them as she moved around the trees and shrubs. She couldn't see Jiro from here, but she hoped he would be all set and ready, and on the same page. When she was ready herself seeing the ducks and pigeons comfortably out in front of her, she made herself just a little more known with a bristle in the bushes. It got their attention, and with another shift through the leaves they started to waddle away from the sudden sounds of movements and toward where Jiro and her had originally met. She kept moving closer through the shrubs, making the birds stir with a little more panic as she didn't yield. She had to find the soft spot, if she let herself linger too long they would fly away but if she was too abrupt they would lose them too. When she thought the moment was right she would jump out from her hiding to pounce on the feathered creatures, aiming for two smaller pigeons hoping Jiro could snag a duck and they could give each of them a try.
