Shadowwyn Moor Hey, how about that!

Luke was quick to join him with the opossum. They were pretty darn interesting, weren't they? "See that? Jaws slightly open? Foaming at the mouth? Makes them look pretty unappetizing, doesn't it?" Normally, this sort of thing would have been a deterrent from eating any other animal. It was his head that was overriding natural instinct which was telling him to leave it alone. Knowing better, was reason enough to overlook a few things, even though it did smell something awful.

Kero prodded the body. It was frozen in place, only moving as a corpse naturally would though he knew the opossum was still very much alive. "They can keep this up for hours at a time," he said. "I would probably kill it for real before eating it though, just so it doesn't accidentally wake up when you're halfway through the contents of its stomach." Something like that sounded all kinds of cruel.
