<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;">[09:37] AA: I know what you mean.

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;">[09:38] AA: There is nothing quite as wonderful as a freshly killed rabbit.

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;">[09:39] AA: I have to kill often in order to keep her fed.

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;">[09:39] AC: that

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;">[09:39] AC: doesn't sound that bad

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;">[09:40] AA: It is.

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;">[09:40] AA: And I always have a reason to get more corpses.

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;">[09:44] AA: That way you can reskin it to make a realistic depiction.

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;">[10:02] AC: yep

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;">[10:03] AC: the secret

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;">[10:03] AC: over and over again

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;">[10:03] AA: Unfortunately... Bows take too long to draw, and crossbows too long to reload.

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;">[10:04] AC: that's why I keep my shotgun

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;">[10:04] AC: close in hand

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;">[10:05] AA: How about if we ever go hunting, I'll take the trees, you take the ground, and we can handle every bear that comes our way.

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;">[10:06] AA: I was merely inferring that a shotgun has a great deal more killing power up close.

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;">[10:06] AC: you know what else

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;">[10:06] AC: has a great deal of killing potential up close?
