It's not moving very fast, though... and why not share the food?

[Sharing is caring and Xie Lian has given many of his scraps to stray dogs and cats and creatures of many ilks.]

Maybe we should... spread out on either side of it? And if it gets close to the ne of us carrying the apple, we could throw it tot he other person?

[That sounds like a great plan when you have bad luck.]
