Title: Given
(Chax holds the dead khirrik in his claws as Aun stands up. He confronts Chax, in shock and anger)
Aun: AYII!! Why did you do that!?
Chax: Because I’m hungry…?
Aun: Nai! I mean, did you have to shout like that?
Chax: Was shouting at it any worse than killing it?
Aun: It’s enough that you had to kill it! That I can understand, even if I don’t approve.
I won’t stand for torture of a harmless animal!

I am, though.
Glad to see you're back, JJA!

I'll second the nonymous on that one. Welcome back, J! (although I know you've been around this whole time…)

Glad to see you back and with a bang!
In a bleak alien landscape, two creatures raised from birth to be each other's enemies decide to think instead. One seeks Botaram, a place of high ideals and austere beauty; the other seeks to protect Botaram from being defiled by creatures like the first. An uneasy truce is formed amid heartbreak and broken ties, and through the ashes of their world they search for a truth that may no longer exist, abandoning friends, honor, and perhaps their lives… or worse.

Like Chax, I can't eat chimmer. Please consider buying me a cheese sandwich!
