“  STEALING’S A CRIME  —  HAVEN’T YOU HEARD ?  i should cut your hands off for touching one of my chickens.  ”  the voice cuts through pitch black,  ringing clear and sharp.  he appears as a hazy shape from somewhere beside the cage,  saunters into illumination with the nonchalant authority of a nobleman.  “  you picked one of the fat ones,  too.  how shameless can a man be ?  ”  

a slash of reflected moonlight dances across the muddiness,  polished silver tipping upwards.  jiangzai's familiar weight sends a pulse of blood through his veins.  he levels the tip at the stranger’s sternum.  “  my dinner.  i want it back.  ”
