> "I'll have two, please."

>With surprising coordination, the three kappa prepare and skewer five grilled fish filets. You note that they seem to be using whatever they can catch in the river, two of the filets are catfish, one seems to be a sweetfish, another flounder, and you think the last is anchovy? The cashier holds out all five for you to grab as you like.
