Might as well go for something fun if our original ones were taken. I think the mythology themes many flocks have leaned towards are cute.

Some of them can get complicated to say.

Anyway, you brought food? Did you make it yourself?

You may also call me Levi.

And yes, I did! I work at a restaurant back in my world.

That's handy.

Do you have any tips on where to get ingredients? I don't think the rest of my team's all that interested in foraging, but I'd like to get some reliable food sources figured out.

I can probably hunt, too, although right now I'm limited to what I can handle with just a knife.
strateelgic: (thought)

[personal profile] strateelgic 2024-01-24 04:11 am (UTC)(link)
Have you spoken with any of the small beastmen here? Ms. Daisy and Coco can help with some of the basics, especially if you're looking for dairy products. I haven't done a quest for Coco yet, but she's connected to a ration demon so if there's any particular food item you want that you can't find in the wild you might want to try talking with her.

As for hunting and foraging, the cold has caused both edible flora and fauna to be a bit more hard to come by, but they can still be found. I would suggest the odd sheep-crabs at the beach. Their meat has a unique flavor and they're fairly easy to catch. I've also just provided Pegasus with some anatomical diagrams of some of the better hunting targets here if you're looking for larger prey.

Re: @ peony

[personal profile] damegane 2024-01-25 02:18 am (UTC)(link)
Oh, that's good info on Coco, thanks.

Anatomical data should help a lot, too. Are there any specific ways of preparing the meat you'd recommend?
strateelgic: (pondering)

Re: @ peony

[personal profile] strateelgic 2024-01-25 06:03 am (UTC)(link)
Well that varies by animal.

Scistors can be prepared like chicken, but their bones are made of actual metal, so be careful when roasting them in the oven because of how that effects how quickly they cook if you don't remove the meat from them. Gatordawg is a bit gamey but good with barbecue and stewed. Pygmydillos are basically wild hogs and can be cooked accordingly.

The sheep-crabs have meat that somehow manages to incorporate the flavors of both animals and I'm still figuring out how best to work with it but it seems pleasantly versatile.

[Nodding as he commits all of this to memory.]

I'm not sure we have much we can use to flavor or prepare it other than cooking it through, but if we can quest for more foods or spices, it would give us a lot more options.

[personal profile] strateelgic 2024-01-26 06:15 am (UTC)(link)
I have access to some spices if you require them, though Coco may also be able to provide.

Oh you aren't. I'm thrilled to meet Peony's newest members.

Re: @ peony

[personal profile] damegane 2024-01-27 08:44 am (UTC)(link)
You have that much of an interest in our team?
strateelgic: (welcome)

Re: @ peony

[personal profile] strateelgic 2024-01-27 10:06 pm (UTC)(link)
Of course I am. Peony is the first new flock added since we all arrived here.
damegane: ([Look] one else could find)

Re: @ peony

[personal profile] damegane 2024-01-28 02:49 am (UTC)(link)

Not everyone's necessarily going to be interested in dealing with newcomers.

Re: @ peony

[personal profile] strateelgic 2024-01-28 05:29 am (UTC)(link)
That would be to their detriment, then.
