โ€œI think youโ€™re a swell guy for technically being an alien, you at least got a sense on how trading and currency work here!โ€ He rubbed his hands together before he dug into the steak, loving how it tastes. โ€œTell me again, what exactly is this again? A beast you slain or something?โ€

Link@thehylianhunter.bsky.social ยท 5h ago

"Huh! Guess you must really like me~! Or at least my cookin'!" Link chuckled, giving Jay the last of the cooked portions. "That's all I got, for now. So, I better not see any of your posse look up at me, 'n act like I can feed 'em, too!"

โ€œI got about an hour till they get here, so no sweat off my back truly. As far as seconds? I wonโ€™t lie, Iโ€™m not going to deny that tasty steak I just had. So if you donโ€™t mind, please place another in my plate!โ€ The hybrid smirked towards the human.

Link was getting all the more suspicious about what exactly Jay meant, but kept an even face to not betray what he was thinking. "Again! Fair! Well, unless you're thinking about seconds, then I'll just get to cleaning up here, so you can run along to your meeting with your friends."

โ€œWell now you know how I feel about how youโ€™re describing the game you hunt! And itโ€™s not necessarily an inside joke, just one that youโ€™re not familiar with. And trust me, not something youโ€™d likely wish tk know any time soon.โ€ He said with a smirk.

Link@thehylianhunter.bsky.social ยท 22h ago

"If this is some 'inside joke' among folk from this region or whatever, then I guess you would have me at a loss. Can't know everything about a new 'ecosystem' in a few days!"

That got Jay to laugh, slapping his knee in response. โ€œGrahaha! I needed that response from you. You were sounded way too confident for your own good, itโ€™s pleasing to see you befuddled for once.โ€ He teased Link for now.

Link@thehylianhunter.bsky.social ยท 23h ago

"Wait, what-?" Link had...questions. But apparently there wasn't time for Jay to answer them. He was beginning to question if he even WANTED to know what Jay meant.

โ€œGood, just basically saving you the trouble. If my fellow mates see you in the cabin, they might mistake you for an escort.โ€ Coming to the realization that Link may not know what that is exactly. โ€œDonโ€™t worry about what that means, just stay on the camp site for the time being.โ€

Link@thehylianhunter.bsky.social ยท 23h ago

"Stay outta the way and outta sight. Got it." Link replied. For now, at least, "plausible deniabilty" was likely a good thing. Can't report to his bosses things he doesn't know about.

โ€œI run into those people plenty of times, but now that you know a pinch of what I do, you might see a few of my fellow clan mates later on today. We have a small meeting in a matter that needs to be taken care of, but it shouldnโ€™t be long.โ€ He expressed, mainly for Link to remain at camp.

"That's fine. Again, we both got some 'trade secrets' we ain't gotta tell all about right away. But I guess that's why I felt all along like I was in 'good company', so to speak. Different lines of work, yet, we already understand each other quite a bit."

Truthfully, Jay calling Link "kid" wasn't something he'd keep up with. Most of the time, it was natural for "Jericho" to say to those who didn't realized what kind of man he was whenever they thought patronizing was suitable. "More like my birth name given by my parents. Jay, as you know, was -

Link@thehylianhunter.bsky.social ยท yesterday

A moniker associated with your craft or renown? Or maybe just a cool nick like 'Barkeep' that just stuck after everyone started callin' ya that?"

While his personality changed, it seemed as though Link took the frivolous approach while analyzing the hybrid and his world; which in return, made Jay shake his head and chuckle deeply. โ€œFirst of all, kid? You might get a โ€œriseโ€ when it comes to slaying large beasts or whatever within your -

the closest to Jay's "true" nature. "Am I getting warmer, dear apex of your urban habitat...?"

"It's paramount that we do stay quiet..." With that last sentence, his entire demeanor changes in a flash. From a boisterous, amiable guy to a more grim, dour kind of being. "We're talking about a world within another world, a world that's been around nearly longer than what is known as common -

Link@thehylianhunter.bsky.social ยท 2d ago

about keeping things quiet!" The Hunter chuckled. "...You and your mob outfit don't deal in 'unusual cargo' of any sort, though, right? During my first year on the job? I ended up taking a request line from another 'mafia' outfit. Nearly lost my Gog damned life near the end of it!"

Itโ€™s not often that Jay spoke to others so casually about his other life, normally itโ€™s mandatory to keep quiet about it and fortunately for the hybrid? There was a bit of trust with Link. โ€œIf I told ya, youโ€™d probably have a new thing to worry about other than hunting yourโ€ฆ Big Fauna or -

Link@thehylianhunter.bsky.social ยท 3d ago

"What kinds of things are you and your group responsible for, hm? Gotta hunt something?"

Jay allows Link to blabber off for the time being, trying to figure out what the hybrid was. Suddenly, Link closely hits the nail on the head with the last suggestion. And while he could have shook his head, Jay allows Link to know heโ€™s on the mark. โ€œโ€ฆ If you saw what I do and how itโ€™s done? -

A smirk came to Link's face. "And there it is~! Had a feeling there was more to you! I'm more than a bit familiar with the 'salt-of-the-earth hayseed' types, myself!" Link leaned on one arm, still smiling at Jay. "So...lawman? Secret agent? Or...~!" He sniffed the air around Jay. "A gangster?"

โ€œI guess you got a point there, makes it hard to believe, at the same time, I know a thing or two about not allowing the public to know what they donโ€™t need to know.โ€ Admitting that heโ€™s not just another participant on this planet and having a role where his profession is kept under wraps.

Link@thehylianhunter.bsky.social ยท 4d ago

"Not my 'time'. More like 'dimension'. The fact that you've never seen anything from my home break out into your world means we're doing a good job in that area!" Also that maybe this world doesn't have as many natural resources that a monster might want. But Link's not complaining!

โ€œBasically youโ€™re saying society as we know it today wouldnโ€™t be what it is without what you do in your time?โ€ This is all news to him, it goes beyond what he already knows considering he is apart of a clan that runs an underworld society underneath common society.

Link@thehylianhunter.bsky.social ยท 4d ago

we all may share the same spaces, inevitably, conflict might arise. Guys and girls like me help keep things balanced!"

// Iโ€™m gonna say this in the most respectful way (considering Iโ€™m part of the problem) Thereโ€™s definitely a sense of disappointment when a few writers essentially horde/create so many different muses/accounts that the one you do like ends up either no longer being written when another muse is made.
