The hefty Russo listened to the girl as she explained why she was here. It was not a silly reason, especially since the Russian was well aware of the desire to visit one's former home. Granted, he was probably never going to visit Arkhangelsk again. There was no reason for him to go, now that he had Anann and had to be here. He could visit his slew of extended relatives and his father, but somehow, the thought of seeing his father's first mate and final one sort of threw that all to pot. He did not want to see the woman who pulled his father away from them, even though he knew he was not one of Rurik's first children. The man had come here with half his siblings and then was joined by Anatoliy himself. How could he want to see her, when he knew nothing of her other than her theft of his father once more?
The young woman changed tack and gestured toward the line of fish (hopefully). Furrowing his brows, the man nodded at her, as though the answer had been obvious all the time. "Vell yes. Vhy vould I stick a line into zhe vater ozhervise?" Grunting slightly, the Russo leaned heavily over to pick up the line slightly. He kept it secured to the wooden dock, to ensure the line staying even if his fingers slipped over the thin and wet strand of fishing line. "Usually vould use just vone hook, but I am not here for a leisurely fishing trip." The man pulled the line out slowly from the water, feeling the tension and how something on the end fought the tugging motion. Slowly pulling the line out, the man saw the flailing motions and caught site of the side stripes. A pair of cod fish. Grinning, he deftly pulled out the line and took out his knife with the other hand. In rapid succession, the Russo cut the fish's gills and gutted them. Laying them wedged between two close boards. The blood seeped out and the Russian looked up at the girl watching.
"Zhat is zhe nasty part of zhe fishing." Leaning over to wash his hands lightly in the salty ocean, the Russo gauged the girl's reaction. "Do you like fish?"
