"Sorry!" A chirping voice came from the lion-headed bird as it leapt into the air and came down on a boar, talons piercing right through into the vitals. "Rex never asked you to help!" It crowed, and turned towards Ivory, "I don't get to do this lots! It's a happy time! Hurts lots, but happy now!" It almost sounded like a child, had it not been slaughtering any boar around it. "The long cat was a scaredy-cat, but I'm bigger! And strong!"
Anzu, can you quit talking!? She doesn't even know who you are!
"Oh! I'm rude!" Pausing momentarily, Anzu inclined its head at Ivory. "Rex and me are Rex and Anzu! Not the brat!"

"Hm, guess I wasn't around for those Guilds. Just normal jobs? Sounds weird." He curled his lips, a place with people everywhere, wanting to have magic people do things for them...not for survival? Yeah, no thank you.
Very long time...I don't remember, but I am old enough to be in those times. Maybe you too.
Very, very weird. He didn't like lingering on it, it felt too strange to try and consider a time he might and might not have been present for. "Yeah, yeah, I'm coming." He felt glad that he didn't need to think about it here, and trotted after Reticulum.

Oooh...deer. Can we catch deer next time?
"If I can catch it myself, I'll eat it. Deer, though? That'd be nice, better than even boar." His words continued, and he couldn't help but brag, "Don't know about you, but I'm one of the best hunters I know, so don't worry, it's not like I starve."
Good food...good company...what is this man talking about?
He laughed under his breath, "Good food, yeah, but don't flatter me. Good company? I'm just eating all your money...but I can give it back, I got good money." Really, he couldn't let this favor go without repaying it, not his style to let it drag on.

Anzu and Rex gathered what Ivory meant quickly, skidding in the dirt and shooting after the or her group of boars, where he caught another scent, almost covered by the boar's pungentness. A smell that slapped at the duo, tinged with old blood.
I know it! Onza, the long cat!
Indeed, he first spotted the body...and then the body. Almost snake-like in its length, it took him precious seconds to even find its head, then its forelegs, where it successfully strangled two boars. A cougar-like head glared at him, and it gave a warning snarl. A normal human would have to flee, this beast clearly wanted its prey in peace, but the hunters couldn't afford that.
Rex snarled back, cutting off as Anzu moved to replace him. Perhaps in some other time, they'd be capable of another transformation, but Anzu worked the best it could with a humanoid body. In a stream of crackling and sudden snaps, a new body stood in place. Anzu stood there, swapped with the human's body.
Practically nothing of Rex was there, even the mane took on an orange hue, but his voice still trickled through, "Can we eat it too? Maybe. I don't know. Get the boars." The scent of the boar's were behind the Onza, likely trapped by it, if only it'd let Anzu pass.
So they roared, a haunting, shrieking roar that made it release the boars and skitter away, and Anzu leapt forward, snatching the dead boars and lunging past the Onza into a bunch of scared boars.
Surrounded by boars, with a beast still lingering around. Maybe they were biting off more than they could chew?

Not good? This man never ate good rat!
Amazingly, Rex found himself agreeing with the beast-like sentiments, and even as he ordered more food, started to talk. "I don't know, man...it's easy food. And if I can eat it, it means the real food goes to people who need it." Gods, now his stomach was twisting, eating roast beef...but it was a gift, he had to eat, it couldn't be a waste.
We're hunters.
"I'm a hunter, most of the time. I eat what I can get my hands on, don't usually get days like this. If I eat a deer, that's good enough." He thought momentarily, and added, "And don't kick rat till ya tasted it, it's tasty!" If you had a cat's taste, but still!

He speaks like he is old, like me.
At Anzu's comment, Rex quieted down and watched the shattered glass, smiling as it was destroyed completely, "Bettering ourselves, not like it's hard, not if you don't want to die later."
We're curious, are we not?
Yes, of course they were, but he wasn't dumb enough as to ask someone to detail their own circumstances...not directly, anyhow. "Huh, you talk like you've seen other Guilds...were there others? I don't really know, don't remember anything other than Odin's Spear.

"What? A contest!" Rex barked out at chirpy laugh, stopping a moment to watch the giant werewolf pass by. Oh that was terrifying. Oh, that was great!
Rex didn't swap away with Anzu completely, flying would be great, but then they couldn't hunt in a forest properly. He'd just have to test out his own legs. Didn't stop feathers from sprouting, his arms one more change away from being wings. "Anzu! Let's go!"
They weren't built for the ground like this, but he wasn't just giving the victory over to the wolf! He still had to get a good standing!
The ground tore as he screamed through the forest, arms occasionally flapping as he arrived to retain balance, "Hunting! We got it! Won't lose!" If they couldn't run faster, they had to make it up in hunting, and the old duo definitely had skill in such an activity.

Sounds like a good way to eat!
Of course it sounded great, didn't sound the most safe place to live, but of course Anzu would like to live in such a place. It was only a good thing he had most control over their shared body, otherwise they'd be living in some dangerous place rather than here.
It is time to eat. Not talking.
Indeed it was, so that he almost missed the next question, almost already half-way through his meal. "What? Oh, it's great!" He could only imagine that it had been recently hunted, this kind of food would be gone in a few days, he was lucky to have it. "Thanks for it...was going to have a rat before you showed up."

Rex wasn't quite sure what he was expecting, some kind of disgust or disbelief? Either way, he knew everybody always had something to say about his situation. The best he could get was weird, the worst? Some kind of monster, or demon. Thus, the calm way Reticulum reacted clearly drew some confusion from Rex, who recovered quickly enough, but his eyes swam in expectation and confusion. "Really? Cool?"
I like this man
And now Anzu was back to share a mix of confusion and muted happiness. "Yeah...it can be pretty convenient, but not if we're both rusty, seeing what just happened." He snickered at his and Anzu's poor performance, following up with his own question about his sparring partner, "You like shooting things? Then I guess we can do this again, when we can dodge one of those shots, we'll be better than before."

"You eat them? Heh, almost makes me-" hungry "envious...must be hard to get hungry there...sounds cramped though, is keep thinking the stone would fall on my head." Why this didn't happen here, he had no idea, maybe the Anzu instincts felt trapped in stone?
Oooh! Our Guild!
"Odin's Spear, we're tough." Rex couldn't help but boast a little bit, "Don't know who the hell Odin is, but they let me stick around, so who am I ta question, right?"

Rex barked out a laugh as he took the offered hand, brushing himself off as he stood up, "Please, I couldn't even dodge a simple punch, I'm really rusty." He praised back, relaxing slightly as he realized that the fight was really over. It didn't feel bad...honestly.
Our magic...
Rex's smile fell away, and his eyes narrowed as he remembered the circumstances of his own magical abilities. "I...well, it's just not real magic...dammit." He trailed off, already feeling stupid trying to explain, and feeling the familiar shame if trying to relate that he did nothing magical.
We share.
Right, right, that's how it was. Sure Anzu. "It's like I got a brat right in my head with me...ok...ok, a helpful brat, sheesh." He sighed as he brought a hand up to his very human mouth, "Everything you saw there, my feet, the face that was the brat, we share this body." He abruptly turned around, already frowning with the idea. He was impressive, but it was really Anzu, that was it.

Beef! We want the beef! Steak...roast...
Anzu's voice continued to trail on and Rex grinned good-naturally, "We-er-I like anything with meat, usually have to hunt it yourself!...the roast, preferably." Anzu cheered, and he couldn't help but feel a sort of glee bubble up in his throat too.
"Rough? Yeah, we kinda all live like this." He waved around at the metallic walls, "It's boils in the sun, and its cold at night, but we never get monsters we can't hear coming from a mile away, my kind of odds." Curiosity fueled his next question, despite Anzu's protests to stop talking and eat, "I mean, what kinda place did you live in?"

Like clothes, huh? Why couldn't their transformation be like that? Anzu pressed forward, and Rex dropped the thought before Anzu could feel it sufficiently. It wasn't like Anzu had a choice in the matter, even if it initiated the transformation. "Take-over magic, I wish, you get to be all kinds of stuff." He didn't mention anything about the pain, shrugging it off as he rubbed his jaws.
I smell them. They stink!
"We got something." His snout wrinkled as the musky stench, but it wasn't unpleasant, per say. It was just making him hungry. Nonetheless, he launched forward, following the urges of Anzu as it cried out again and again. "I'm not wasting my time for nothing, you better tell!" He called out, voice starting to eager between a higher and lower pitch as Anzu suddenly crowed out, "This is exciting!"

Slammed into the ground the way he was, Rex felt Anzu childishly give up, retreating into the back of his mind where there was nothing he could do to make it come back. Anzu might as well had crossed its arms and said, I give up, the way it left him.
"Guh...Anzu?" He knew it was no use, but tried calling out to his source of power anyway, trying to rise to his feet before falling back as pain laced up his back. Anzu did not respond, "Agh! Oh, fine! Looks like I'm done." Rex mumbled out, turning his head to look upon the victor, "That really hurt, you know!"

As Quinn went to get a room, Rex raised and hand in a sort of wave before turning on his heel and trotting about the area. He avoided any seat that had clearly had somebody spill something on it, and eventually found himself sitting rather far from the food, a shame.
At least nobody tried to make him move, he didn't think somebody would be dumb enough, but one never knew, after all.
I want food. Make him come back.
Wisely, he tuned Anzu out, only raising his voice one Quinn had actually gotten what he came here for, a room. "Quinn, over here!"
