[ Sand. So much sand. But in the middle of the sand, something else: a giant sand worm carcass. From behind the camera comes Eda's voice. ]

Well, look what I found!

[ She sounds very proud of this fact. The camera swerves around to see her grinning from face to face. ]

I know it's probably not a trash slug, but hey, it looks close enough, so --

[ She produces a pickaxe seemingly out of nowhere. ]

I'm gonna investigate its insides.

[traaaaaash]

So?

[downswing]

A creature. No thing.

[clavesregni]

It's filthy!

[faceblocker]

[ Maybe not the best option, but beggars can't be choosers. ]

Yeah, you should definitely grill some up and offer it to Caitlyn.

[perceptive]

Have you discovered anything interesting about its insides then?

[traaaaaash]

You mean Prissy Feet? Yeah, that's gonna go over well.

[traaaaaash]

Yeah, I don't know if you've heard of it, but there's this thing called water.

[traaaaaash]

look as i said it's not getting any less dead

and i think using what a dead animal gives you, giving its parts a new life, is a way of honoring it

[traaaaaash]

nah just lots of meat so far

cool teeth tho

[clavesregni]

[more sputtering] You can't wash trash!

[traaaaaash]

Sure you can.

[clavesregni]

[She's realizing she can't win this one. So she's just going to stew in her rock-solid belief in the inherent dirtiness of trash.]

Preposterous.

[traaaaaash]

Suit yourself, Prissy Feet. More for me!

[faceblocker]

[ Hah, that nickname makes Cupcake look pretty nice by comparison. ]

Guess you're right. She'd never go through with it.

[ Cait are you seeing this? She hopes so! You chicken. ]

Just arrange it all fancy on a nice plate and name it something ridiculous and I bet she wouldn't know the difference.

[traaaaaash]

Probably not. Rich people eat some freaky stuff!

[faceblocker]

Some of the desserts are pretty good, though.

[clavesregni]

I'd prefer not to eat the worm, thank you.

[traaaaaash]

Hmm, wouldn't say no to those myself.

[traaaaaash]

Your loss, then!

[clavesregni]

Have you not considered the potential health ramifications of eating a carcass that's been sitting out in the sun for who knows how long?

[faceblocker]

[ Just...a chuckle. Oh Eda. ]

[faceblocker]

She said it looked fresh.

[traaaaaash]

I've eaten worse. Also I make a pretty good nausea potion.

[traaaaaash]

[ Look, she doesn't know about your little nickname or maybe she might've pieced it together. ]

So, worm barbecue? I didn't find anything that looks valuable in there, so I guess it'll have to do as meat.

[faceblocker]

[ A shrug and a nod. Why not? ]

I'll try anything once.
