From nowhere, they pull out a stick. Not the one they used to fight with, just a piece of branch they snapped off while climbing for fruit, and they shove it in their mouth. Something to gnaw on instead of scraping scores into the side of their cheeks and tongue.
"Not right, and killing him probably isn't gonna work either." Probably. They don't really know how the boogeyman's mind works. He's scared of them, but for unique reasons they're not going to give away easily.
They slip from anger to something more businesslike. "...did you fight anybody else?"
