Asahi's typical silence soothed him. It was less pressure. Regardless of what she was thinking about him - if she thought about him at all, which he realized in a flash of internal panic, she might not - her face was calm and placid. Difficult to read. Or was he just obtuse? Quickly, his racing thoughts overtook him. Kat busied himself by noting the different muscles exposed beneath the fawn's pelt and trying to name each one as Asahi expertly peeled back the pelt. He grunted and shook himself free from his own reverie and eyed the doe carcass, particularly the flayed hind limb. Her bone was exposed, startlingly white surrounded by the gore. Another handy thing to keep around, or perhaps he just liked having things. Kat set to work on removing the hind leg entirely, starting from the thicker haunch of muscle at the top. If he could reveal the heartier femur bones and clean and extract them, they also had merit - including the delicious bone marrow he intended to share with his sister once he had extricated the femur and cracked it open. They were thick enough that once dried and cleaned they could even make efficient skinning knives. He peeled back layers of flesh and muscle, soaking his underside in blood as he worked. |
