Syd let out a plaintive little "wark" at the tent's door, wanting to go back in and get her things, at least, but every time she tried to get back in they shooed her right back out, leaving her standing in front of the tent and staring out at the hunter's camp with a sad little penguin look on her little penguin face--
Izy crowed in her mind.
And she did. The little Syd pengie started waddling away from the tent, looking for someone that might be able to help her out. She let out little "Wark" sounds when she saw people she recognized, looking downright...
Adorable.

"AWWRRRKKK" a black and white blur waddled at high speed over past the tent, launched itself into the air, skidded along on its belly and postured in a small threatening penguin sort of way at a passing hunter.
Rep was angry and somewhere in the little penguin brain there was a primal anger that he'd quite happily tapped into. It was easy to be angry when you were a black and white appetiser with a strong desire for fish.
He stopped when he saw the other penguin and shot her a look. Pointing dramatically with a flipper.
"WARK." he challenged.

"Wark?" Syd said, staring at the other penguin blankly. Was he--was he challenging her? "Wark wark!!" she said, which translated into "This isn't fighting time, you idiot!" or something similar. She caught sight of one of the full hunters and flapped her wings at him, trying to chase him--only to fall over because his legs were MUCH longer than hers were. For a few seconds she slid on her belly, much to her shock.
It took her a few moments to figure out how to get back on her feet. She would have been flushing had she been in her human form, as it was she turned back to Rep, pointing a wing at him. "Wark wark!" which was more "Why aren't you trying to get help, too?"

He puffed up in as threatening a manner as he could manage, which wasn't threatening at all.
The lack of swearing in penguin speak was frustrating as he irritably squawked at her, obnoxiously loudly that "I don't want people knowing I'm like this! Will this wear off? FISH."
He paused and looked slightly confused by the last bit.

"...Wark?" Fish? He said fish! The Syd penguin cocked her head slightly. "Wark!" she said, starting to waddle off at full penguin speed--towards the food tent. Or at least what she hoped was the food tent. Maybe they would have sympathy for a starving hunter penguin!
"Wark wark warkkk," she went on as she waddled. It was more of a "fish fish fiiiishh" statement than anything else, and in the back of her mind, Izy was rolling around, laughing his head off--again.

Rep wasn't normally a fan of fish. At all. So it was somewhat upsetting just how much he craved one right now. Any other time it'd be sugar or chocolate or something. Today it was fish. Fishfishfish. ******** hell he wanted one. And now Syd was talking about them. Not that he even knew who the other penguin was at the moment. Just that she was female. And wanted fish. Which he could appreciate.
<< Do you have any fish? >>
<...No>
<< Then shush >>
He pompously waddled along after the other penguin to eye the food tent, he hadn't actually thought about it. Maybe those ready meals had fish in them. He pecked her on the shoulder to get her attention.
"AWK?" needless to say, it meant FISH?

[ENTER]
The penguin in glasses wobbled towards his comrades, looking optimistic.
"Fish?" He quacked hopefully, fluttering his flippers as he beamed at the other two. He had given a pebble to this female but she had failed to provide said Fish and he was feeling disappointed.
Jerry, after hours of penguinhood, was out to lunch, much to Roar's dismay.

Syd had found the pile of MREs in the rest tent--though she still thought of it as the food tent. She let out a happy "wark!!" and started jumping by the pile, snapping her beak at the one on the top--and watching in shock as the pile threatened to topple over.
"Wark!! Wark wark!" she said, jumping away and sliding on her belly as the avalanche of MREs started toppling down, threatening to bury her.

Where the hell were all these penguins coming from? He was displeased again. These were HIS fish. His.
And he was ******** sure there was a tuna MRE in there somewhere. Watching Syd almost get buried.
He turned to glare at Jerry. "MINE"
This would probably be easier if he wasn't SO SMALL.

((Entering!))
A violet-eyed penguin followed the bespectacled penguin, carrying a shiny rock in her beak as she waddled along. Hey! Hey! She'd tried okay? They'd found fish just been unable to get them!
Candace stared at the other two penguins, watching as a pile of MREs fell atop of another penguin. Oh hey there was one over there, too. He looked angry. She squawked a little, waddling up to her penguin husband and giving him a nudge toward the MREs that had fallen on the other penguin.
...Waaaaaait..they shouldn't ******** with those. Those were meals for the entire camp.

Jerry cocked his head to one side, nearly losing his glasses in the process. "Fish?" He didn't see fish. He only saw odd plastic human packages. And a trapped penguin. He waddled up closer to the funny little penguin with the odd eyebrows, giving him an experimental friendly nibble.

Rep responded as well to friendly in penguin shape as he did normally. Jerrypenguin earned a furious barrage of pecks for his trouble.

"WAARK!" Jerry flailed, staggering back from the tiny penguin's wrath, stumbling backwards in the snow with his glasses flying.
This was no way to get fish.

...Even penguins had stupid slap fights.
Candace just stared, watching as the two penguins duked it out. This was nature.
This was real life.

Rep looked smug as the other penguin reeled backwards. Good. He'd learned his lesson. These were his fish.
Wait. He didn't even like fish.
Augh whatever, who the ******** cared, he'd won rights to something and that something was probably fish. He turned his attention to the other penguin with the one with glasses (were glasses normal for a penguin?)
He gave her a critical look. She had a rock. He waddled over and narrowed his eyes curiously. Why did she have a rock? What the ******** was with penguins anyway?
He was tempted to challenge her for the rock.
