Fish, huh? I wouldn't mind that. The refectory's been serving plain salad for breakfast.

[ Wanders a bit closer to the stream to peer at its running water. ]

At least with fishing, it'll be easy enough to pull off any leeches.

How unpleasant...

[ the refectory... terrible. ]

The fish most likely feed on the leeches. They may make for good bait.

[tactic]

... Have we tried eating the leeches?

a little bit of smoke starts rising from her head. ]

I hope not.

[tactic]

[ SMOKE? Watches it rise up... ]

Are you feeling warm by any chance?

[sootprints]

No...

[ she sounds a little confused, but then realizes. ]

Ah. The soot? Please don't worry about it.

[tactic]

If you're sure.

[ He won't press since she's asking him not to. ]

Revisiting the stream, the leeches aren't too terrible a nuisance as long as someone else is around to pick off the ones harder to reach.

I'd rather not be bitten at all...
