[There's a thoughtful pause.]
We could hunt the bear, sell its pelts, and keep the meat for the ship. It'd make Sokka happy, and we'd have more meat for the freezers to last us.
no subject
[And Thor hasn't ever seen them full. Thanks, cannibal planet.]
I'd be up for it if you are.
no subject
[So far she's managed to avoid seeing Sokka when there's no meat left, but frankly, she doesn't want to find out what that's like. She likes the allure of that mystery.]
Worth a try. Best just be ready to run, just in case.
no subject
[Someone's confident.]
If we can surprise it we can end it quickly.
no subject
That'd be ideal. Harder to do on this snow and ice. [she sizes up the distance between them and the bear, which will continue to grow as the bear ambles its way down.] You light on your feet?
no subject
Not particularly. [Stealth is not an attribute he possesses.] But I'm fast.

If we close even half the distance first, it should make it easier to catch the bear once the chase begins.
no subject
[Riona moves forward, trying to keep her steps light but flat footed as she begins to cross the ice. So far, the bear doesn't notice anything...]
no subject
It isn't long before they reach the snow - phase two will soon begin.]

I'll go straight for it - swing around the side while it's distracted.

Shit!
no subject
No one could claim it isn't determined!
[Determined to save its own skin. Thor hefts his sword again and hurls it like a spear, putting enough force into it to keep it on its path. Thankfully, the distance is short enough that it has no time to spin. The sword embeds itself in the bear's haunch, and it staggers with another growl of pain. And then it's swinging itself around again to try and lash out at its attackers.]

But that's exactly what happens when Thor kicks off the ground, effectively throwing himself and the bear locked in his arms over 180 degrees to slam into the ice. The bear roars with frustration, legs kicking in the air, but Thor keeps his grip around its throat.]
Now, in the neck!
no subject
Luckily his words snap her out of her awe and she sprints over, sword poised. The bear's legs kick at her, and she has to dodge and skirt away before she finally gets an opening. With a quick thrust, the blade sinks into the neck. The bear lets out a death gurgle before Riona yanks out the sword. The bear goes limp, the body slumping to the side.]
no subject
Are you all right?
no subject
no subject
Oh, yes, I'm fine. It's not ideal having to get that close to its jaws to do it, otherwise I would have tried it sooner.
[If he'd lost his sword at the same time, at least.]
no subject
[Bud are you even human because she's starting to seriously doubt it]
no subject
Not everyone, no. But I can. [He's not shy about saying so either. He glances back at the bear's crumpled body.] At least it didn't possess any unknown talents.
