Quincy's Big Game Hunt[Natasha, Johann]

Johann offered a light chuckle in response to Natasha's compliment, he shook his head lightly. He wouldn't have gone that far. Perhaps it was that lingering pride that spoke up in his head, but, Johann had a feeling that, were he about fifty years younger, he could have done all of that and more. Though, perhaps that was just the memories of youthful ego.

Poking his head out of the brush, he took another look at their prey, partly to make sure that they weren't about to spring back up and dart back off into the forest. Once he'd confirmed that they were, in fact, not going anywhere, he turned back to Natasha, taking a moment to process her words and think. In all honesty, he had been expecting them to come across one of each, having two was already of tremendous blessing.

"Truth be told, I had been expecting us to have one of each. I think, perhaps, we could take this back to the estate to cook. We can leave the boar for another time."

Johann couldn't help but smile at Natasha. She'd grown up so much, and yet there was still the spirit of that young lady he knew from when she was but so small. Standing up and walking alongside her, Johann took a moment to inspect his gun before he looked ahead at their prey. There was quite a bit of meat to be had from these two fine specimens, and the young lady she was housing in the city had never had deer meat before, hm?

"Well, since there's bound to be more than enough for the two of us, as well as Emma, we could freeze some of it for you to bring back to the city. That way, you can have some ready to prepare for Natsumi to try."

The elder grinned as he slid the rifle over his shoulder, getting his arms free to start the process of removing the vital organs, as well as keeping in mind of the quartering process. He was certainly not going to take any chances of losing quality with this meat, especially with the people he wished to share it with.

Johann offered a warm smile as she offered assistance, and opened his arms, gesturing to the two deer in front of them, before getting back to work on the one he had been cutting into.

"I welcome the assistance, my dear. We do have two of these to get through, after all. It would certainly speed up the time it takes to get everything sectioned off and brought back to the vehicle."

Johann approached the act with surgical precision, removing the vital organs with as little waste as possible. However, that precision did not stop him from acting quick when necessary. With Natasha's help, it would certainly bring down the overall time it would normally have taken to gut and quarter the animals. As that was done, he rummaged through his pack to find something adequate to store them in, and when they were done, would store them as best he could.

"Alright, let's get all of this back to the estate."

It took a bit of time to get everything back to their vehicles, as well as making sure everything was clean. But, after that, they were off toward the Arant Estate, and Johann especially was looking forward to seeing his wife after all this time. He had sent her letters at least once a week and had flowers and chocolates sent when Valentine's came around, but, it felt nice to have a bit of time to return home to the woman he loved.
