[ there are leaves in his hair. maybe he went into the forest to scream a little kill things appreciate mother nature's gift of winter. he looks VERY amused at the offering ]

Damn, you really want to win.

[finalbows]

... You remember the talk we had after the family game, right?

[ Akrinak had just become a Weed. Angie had led him back to Rose barn. ]
