Well, this kind of sucked. Least as far as Nick was concerned. They'd tracked the guy to this middle of nowhere beach and took care of business - but his bike got wrecked. Lyta could carry him a little ways, but not back to civilization - so they're stuck for a bit while he fixes his bike, bit by bit. Takes extra time without a shop to do it in.

"Afraid he nuked my supplies too, unless you want some burnt jerky for dinner. The whiskey is toast though."

	Nick has a knife on his person, using it to set in on gutting and cleaning the fish. A little messy, but enough to demonstrate he at least knows the general theory. Its mostly done by the time she returns with wood. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	vicious_cycle 2013-02-05 03:46 pm UTC (link)
	"Yup." he agrees, getting a good sized rock, cleaning it off, and putting it in the fire to get nice and hot to grill the fish on, absent anything more efficient. He adds a little hellfire to the blaze, and the base of the rock, to speed the process along. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	He nods. "I'll need a drink or five by then." he agrees, without any hint of joking to that statement, anyway. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)
