It's a beautiful evening, camping is going well. Nice fire, yummy food... now if only the mosquitoes weren't such a pain in the tail! Thank goodness for repellent! Need some? -- BKF
"I'd love just one that flakking works," grumbled Companion Xia. "I altered my diet to change the taste of my blood. I'm wearing the repellent bracelets, and the cream, and the spray." They sighed, swatting at a whine in the air. "And I'm still too delicious for my own good."
Human Lear could see the area beset with citronella candles, all alight and observing wilderness fire safety protocols. All useless against the large mosquitoes dodging the smoke just to get at Xia. He clapped one flat, at least. "What are you eating to change your flavour? I know you're a little too sensitive to Human mainstays." Which were either full of sulfates or deemed too disgusting for cogniscent life[1].
"Q'ima fruit. With the pulp," said Xia. "Very smelly fruit from my homeworld. It should repel anything."
