video; backdated to april 1st

[grylls]

[ Are you ready for Riou's next instructional video? Here he is, apparently in the forest, taking up most of the camera view so you can really only see some trees on the side. ]

Today, we'll talk about field dressing a deer.

[ You know, after you hunt an animal and prepare it so that the meat doesn't spoil. Except, it's April 1st and Riou is doing his best. So he turns the camera...

...Onto a deer dressed in camo.

He will not be explaining how he managed to get that sweater on that deer. ]

That is how you field dress a deer.

[ That's it. The video ends. Happy April Fool's Day. ]

You dressed it up, man. You can't kill it anymore.

[ You guys are practically friends now??? ]

[tigridias]

[ ok, but -- ]


How did you get it on the deer?

[ snrkkkk. ]

Good one. Pet deer?

If I were that deer I'd rather be dead, too. Did you have to sedate it or was it simply frozen in fear when it saw you approaching with that terrible sweater?

[ Okay, Judge Judy. ]

It is handsome.

[grylls]

I've been out here a couple of days. He got used to my presence, and let me feed him. The sweater has velcro on the bottom.

[ So it isn't like he had to wrestle over the antlers.. ]

[grylls]

[ They wouldn't be outings for Riou if the wilderness wasn't toxic. u_u He can't live out here, as much as he wants to.. But he's been camping a couple of days. He's probably at his limit after today though. ]

I've been out here for a couple of days. It's been hanging around. I've fed it, and it's grown used to my presence.

[grylls]

I won't kill it then.

[ It can't talk, it's still food to him. ]

[grylls]

Perhaps. I received wings during one moon, but I was unable to fly. It was only the wings, though.
I only get antlers and a tail most moons.

[ It's not like his bone density changed to make his weight more reasonable for flight, after all. ]

[grylls]

They look like branches.

[ Its butt is also not hidden. But it's not the point anyway.. ]

[grylls]

[ Good! Someone else gets it! ]

I think this is enough. He would be uncomfortable with more.

[grylls]

It's been an intense couple of days.

[grylls]

This is a real deer, not a deer person.

[grylls]

I can show you that as well, but I thought not everyone would appreciate it.

[ Since it's, you know, kind of gorey. ]

[chronicgambler]

[Dice has missed the point entirely and is sticking to what he perceives as the point which is HIDING THE DEER. Because that's what camo is for. Duh.]

Oh, shit. You're totally right. I guess that deer's dressed to unimpress, then!

[grylls]

It doesn't seem to be clear to everyone, but a few people getting it is acceptable.

[ He thought it was pretty good when he thought of it. He's smiling too, proud of himself. :) ]

In that case... If you’re in need of a plus one for the ceremony, please do let us know.

[grylls]

[ But sir, camo is actually in fashion this year??? ]

I wasn't dressing you up.

[ Though he's very confused about the level of deer-person he's talking to right now. It's not Iris... is this a real talking deer?? He's so confused right now. He's having an internal crisis about this. The deer he's made friends(?) with according to Samatoki is definitely not a person capable of talking, but this person definitely is... ]

[grylls]

A fellow camper.

[grylls]

[ CAMO IS IN FASHION THIS YEAR TYVM!! Not that Riou even cares, he wears camo every day. ]

No, it was several days of allowing it to get used to my presence, feeding it, and then approaching with caution.

[grylls]

Thank you.
I won't leave it on him for long for his sake. I don't want him to overheat once the weather warms up more.

[grylls]

Samatoki said not to kill it, that won't be necessary.

[ Apparently this is the part Riou thinks involves a ceremony. ]

[yumenope]

Ah. Yes, the sacred rites of a virgin sacrifice for a successful marriage. I’ll have to keep looking, then.

[grylls]

No, it's a joke. I've been told I don't lighten up enough. I thought April 1st was a good time to try.

[grylls]

[ Riou and Samatoki both agreed that Gentaro is strange. ]

Is that something some cultures do for a marriage?

[ He would believe it. Some of the Amazonian tribes have some interesting customs. ]
