Tal rolled his eyes at Sah's words, amused. "Yeah, well, now you're supposed to be advisin' for the war on hunger," he shot back as they left the store. "What's Halo's Advisor doin' spendin' so much time outside of Halo, anyways?" That sounded like spy or diplomat stuff.
Or maybe just Outlander curiosity. Tal shrugged and shot the Jester a grin at having made his point as they entered the next shop--
And his grin turned a little pained and a little fond at the same time. "It's Ta--never mind. We're pickin' up war supplies for the General, ma'am. Is there anythin' you're lookin' for to trade this week? We want, uh..." He took a glance over the back walls and shelves to see what was in stock today and nodded to himself. "Dried meat and hunter's rations, please." He thought for a moment and then grinned, slanting Sah a smugly proud look. "I can trade frozen ursur meat, pound for pound, for the prepped stuff." His share of the ursur hunt's resolution had been stored in the shed back home, intended to feed dogs and Seawrights alike, but since it was his to dispose of this seemed like a worthy cause to spend some of it on.
