He knew no messages could be sent back, so all he had spoken in turn was... well, wanting to be sure the hunter was safe and at least find a way to let him know he had been heard. That the gorgon had gotten what was spoken to the snakes and wasn't ignoring him, or it not working. Language barrier was a hell of a thing, but the snakes had clearly been doing their best.
"I'll keep low profile and hidden."
Was hard to let go, touch starved as Gabriel was, but he settled amongst his own coils, arms folded, and allowing Jack to rise. He did need to go if he hoped to be back by sundown, even if there was little difference for the hunter traveling in the dark. He would still feel better having the man back sooner.
He nodded slowly. "I'll be mindful of what's in it all the same," to make sure it did last him, no matter how dehydrated he still was; would do him unwell to just keep drinking without pause.
The rabbits were taken care of, actually skinned and de-boned while the hunter was gone. Taking care of the meat and actually letting it cook up on the fire on a rock that served well enough to do so. The fox was more devoured whole- even if he did manage to save the fur from that. Did make time to bask while the sun was in the right spot, careful of his healing wounds and moving back in to the cave to keep warm by the fire. Eating a little of the cooked rabbit when it became more of a waiting game than not.
