Having someone a little goofy around will do Varu great. He takes things a bit too seriously. He's all 'revenge for this!' and 'retribution for that', mixed with sullen, plotting silence.
Not too sure how Varu will go with fishing, but he'll wander around nature and be all enamoured with the plants while Danny does the fishing thing. And then Varu can like, clear his throat and chargrill said fish if Danny couldn't be fucked with a fire. :) He's also no doubt have a bottle of wine or two stuffed in his bag somewhere.
