"Can I borrow something to cut flesh? Like a stone tool?" Tsukasa asked.
"You're gonna eat the lion? Is it edible?" Taiju asked.
"They're not poisonous. The meat's tough, though, and reeks of ammonia so much you'd wanna die from the nastiness," Senku said.
"You've eaten lion before, Senku?" Taiju asked, shocked.
"Of course," (Y/N) said. "We both have. When we went to Africa together to study ebola."
"What kind of highschoolers were you two?!" Taiju exclaimed, sweatdropping, his eyes wide.
"The smart kind," (Y/N) retorted, and rolled her eyes. She turned back to Tsukasa.
Solemnly, Tsukasa looked down at the lion, and said, "Even if I did it to save us, I still killed this animal. To show gratitude...to the circle of life. That's all it is."
Taiju looked stunned, but then exclaimed, "Too awesome! He's a great guy, right Senku?!"
Senku cracked his neck. "I don't care a bit about 'the circle of life', but I agree ten billion percent about not wasting meat." He handed Tsukasa the knife.
Tsukasa skinned the lion, and quickly made the pelt into clothes for himself.
They headed over to the treehouse. (Y/N) showed Tsukasa around. Senku felt a pang of jealousy, but pushed it down, and headed over to them with Taiju in tow.
Tsukasa held out his hand and shook hands with Taiju. "The name's Tsukasa Shishio, in case you missed it. You can call me Tsukasa."
"It's not really necessary to use last names, but my name is (Y/N) (L/N)," (Y/N) said, smiling. "And this is Senku. We handle the science work." She gestured to Senku. Senku only gave a nod in response.
"And I'm the weak-minded Taiju, in charge of heavy-lifting!" Taiju exclaimed, shaking Tsukasa's hand eagerly.
"Then I will be your fighter," Tsukasa said. "Now that I'm in charge of hunting, you will never need to look for food again."
Enter: Tsukasa: End
