With their little group expanding out into other people, having a decent supply of food was becoming more and more important. Fortunately, it hadn't taken too long to grasp the basics of the Signless' explanation on how to survive in the desert. Unfortunately, the rapid shifts of night to day and back aren't helping in the least. Sure, she can take consolidation in the fact that the humans are probably not doing much better but it does make things a little more awkward in the realm of hunting.

Not that Nepeta lets that keep her down. She'd be a poor huntress if something so small got in the way, and after the first unending day it had been pretty clear that whatever was illuminating the area was not anything like the sun they'd had on Alternia. Fortunately, she still has the sunglasses that had come with the outfit she'd been put in, so that's at least something. The rest, however, is starting to see some wear and tear, although it's obviously been patched up to the best of her ability.

Either way, she doesn't spot Marius until he's already lining up his shot - even in a desert, her hunting style bears more than a passing resemblance to that of cats - and though she doesn't do anything to break his concentration, if she actually had fur it would no doubt be bristling. She hadn't expected to run into anyone else and there was no telling how he'd react to her presence, something that was more than worrisome with him having the advantage of range with that crossbow.
