"--Gráinne, please leave that alone I wasn't planning to eat him. He was a gift!"

[ That sure is one distressed Diarmuid in the background. With a floppy rabbit in one hand and a knife in the other, this accidental video may indicate that she was planning to do what any woman in her situation would do. After all, rabbit stew was quite nutritious. Placing the rabbit down, she watches it scamper off before picking up the device. ]

I thought it would be a good thing to show my beloved what I intended to bake for him, but he seems distressed over eating a mere rodent. [ What good is a gift if he doesn't eat it GOD. ] Very well, I will do what any good wife should.

[ AND THUS BEGINS HER ADVENTURE OF ACQUIRING THE FOODSTUFFS NEEDED TO MAKE A HEARTY DINNER FOR HER LOVING HUSBAND!! Gráinne can be found throughout all of Prospero trying to barter with various "merchants" at the stores and arguing with civilians on where the nearest market to purchase strange items of old. She might even turn towards any passing individuals to ask them the very same question. ]

...I don't think you're supposed to eat rabbits, miss Grainne.

[video]

[chroimilis]

Why is that? [ PLEASE ENLIGHTEN HER. ] Many hunters ate rabbit while on their travels.

[video]

[breakingtraditions]

...Back then, that's probably what happened, but now people just raise rabbits as a pet.

Not as a food source.

[video]

[chroimilis]

A pet?

Why would anyone wish for such a weak creature to defend them?

[video]

[breakingtraditions]

Well, not really. Pets these days are just companions in daily lives, not in hunting and such.

[video]

[chroimilis]

... Companions in daily lives? Why would anyone wish for a rodent to be alongside them in this world?

[video]

[breakingtraditions]

Everyone has their own reasons of wanting a pet.

[He gives a shrug at that.]

Your husband did say he was a gift, wasn't he?

[video]

[chroimilis]

Yes, but it is an insult to whoever gave it to him to feast on just to keep it as a pet!

[video]

[breakingtraditions]

...Wait. You mean it really was for eating!?

[video]

[chroimilis]

Why else would one gift a rabbit to another if not for that purpose?

[video]

[breakingtraditions]

...

[He explained this to her already, but...]

Maybe he felt bad about eating it?

[video]

[chroimilis]

I did not marry such a weak man!

[video]

[breakingtraditions]

Okay, okay, no need to yell at me!

[video]

[chroimilis]

Then you will assist me in figuring out how to make it so my husband will dine on this gift he graciously received!

[video]

[breakingtraditions]

Wait, WHAT!?

[video]

[chroimilis]

I thought my words were fairly clear, lad.

[video]

[breakingtraditions]

But won't he feel bad about eating it!?

[croibhristeoir]

[THIS POOR BUNNY he'll just pick him right up and hug him]

Honestly, Gráinne...

[chroimilis]

[ Why is he hugging the rodent and not her? This is the worst day of her entire life!! ]

Is it not plump enough to make a decent meal?

[croibhristeoir]

[geeeez, gurl]

Yes, but we're not going to eat him.

[chroimilis]

[ She just wants to go back to being his wife and not this woman who has to try to please him, alright? ]

Why not?

[croibhristeoir]

I told you, he was a gift from a friend. Honestly, I've gotten a bit attached by now.

[chroimilis]

Attached to a rodent?

[ Husband, what is the matter with you... ]

[croibhristeoir]

Well, they w--are a dear friend, and...he's sort of cute, don't you think?

[chroimilis]

He would look better in the pot.

[croibhristeoir]

...Gráinne, just humor me at least. Please?

[chroimilis]

I thought that was what I was doing. Very well, my love--[ It still slips out easily. ]--I will instead go on a hunt for you. What are you in the mood for?

[croibhristeoir]

[Sigh.]

Whatever you would choose is fine, Gráinne.

[chroimilis]

[ There's a sympathetic look to serve as an apology for the term of endearment. ]

Anything I would like then?

[croibhristeoir]

I leave the choice in your capable hands. Is that acceptable?

[chroimilis]

Then you will have the best meal you have ever feasted upon tonight, Diarmuid!

[croibhristeoir]

I look forward to it.

[chroimilis]

[ AND THEN HE WILL LOVE HER AGAIN. ]

Please do enjoy your day while I'm out, alright?

[croibhristeoir]

[He's working on it.]

I will do my best.

[chroimilis]

I shall carry this device on me should you need to get in touch.

[action]

[genius_idiot]

You're looking for... what? [Kaiji doesn't know much about cooking, let alone whatever weird things Grainne might be looking for. He's thinking maybe he just misheard the woman.]

[chroimilis]

Scallions. I am looking for scallions. [ Not skipping a beat. ] Have you any for sale?

[genius_idiot]

Lady, this is a pizza place.

[chroimilis]

What is this pizza you speak of?

[genius_idiot]

...

You're not from a place like this, are ya. It's a kind of food. Cheese, tomato sauce, that kinda thing...?

[chroimilis]

Tomato sauce..? What is that?

[ Nope, not one bit. Sorry bro. ]

[genius_idiot]

Sauce. Made from tomatoes.

[Forget it, he can cover $2 for a slice. He grabs one from behind the glass, tosses it on the plate and hands it over.]

Here, just try it.

[Action]

[thanklesswork]

[Here Grainne, have a civilian who notices you're on a quest and wants to help. And is also incredibly short while smelling like booze and sweat. And has a hammer strapped to his back. CLEARLY A CIVILIZED PERSON.]

Lookin' for somethin' specific?

[chroimilis]

[ Clearly an IRISH person. Maybe SCOTTISH. The stench of ale and bodily fluids is enough to set her mind at ease.

The hammer helps too. The hammer always helps. ]

A freshly killed lamb.

[thanklesswork]

[Actually, everyone talks like they're fresh from the Wild West where he's from...Caelondia's time period and culture are pretty vague. Fortunately (or unfortunately) it hasn't progressed far enough for this request to sound unusual to the Kid.]

You got good taste. But I don't think they sell fresh meat in town. It's usually wrapped up somehow when its sold. It's kinda boring.

[chroimilis]

Wrapped up? What sort of vile man would do such a thing?

[thanklesswork]

Ripoff artists are my guess, personally. But there ain't any farms for miles so you can't get much 'fresh' here.

[chroimilis]

I had plenty of cattle here. When I came back from the dead, they were all gone though... Do you happen to know where they grazed off to?

[thanklesswork]

Wouldn't know. I don't think I'm from the same land as this place.
