"i'm a bit worried about predators" i admit, quickly picking as many berries as i can fit in the little basket i made with the stomach of my shirt. "let's just hurry up and get this food" i shudder, thinking about all the messed up things that could be lurking in the forest.

Alastor Maine Walker
Alastor asked, "Are you sure?"

Malis Python Cross
"Okay and your right," Malis said and carries the arm full of berries in his arms.

She shook her head no silently

"What's wrong you seem down," Alastor asked softly.

"j-j-just feel l-l-like I'm in th-th-the way because I-I'm different" she said sadly

Alastor Maine Walker
"Your not in the way Thema," Alastor said kindly. "You a different but so is everyone here, We all have different experience and personality that make us who we are as a person," Alastor proceeded. "I told this to my sister once but I think you should hear it if you want,"

we return to the small camp, arms laden with berries. "i'll probably go out again early in the morning and look for things we can plant" i say, as i hand out handfuls of berries. once all the berries are all passed out, i take a seat next to the fire.

it's quite, everyone eating their meager ration of berries in silence. "so, uh, anyone want to hear a story? i can tell you one my mom told me on the day she adopted me - it's about a girl who tamed a mighty beast" i suggest. i'm not the best story-teller but i remember a bit of how my mom told it, and she's the best story-teller i know.

"yeah I h-hheard it b-b-before I s-s-still g-g-get made fun of" she said but shutted up when everyone returned and moved away a little and stopped talking

Alastor Maine Walker
Alastor eats his ration of berries. He then said, "People can get jealous that's true. They can try and kick you down but if you have someone that cares about you weather it is from a friend, family, or someone that raised you support you for being yourself can be the greatest thing in the world,"

Malis Python Cross
"I think you will do great telling the story," Malis said after eating his ration of berries.

Thang

While he had heard the discution between Themma and Alastor, he had chosen to say out of it, he was preaty blunt with words so conforting others was preaty far from his confort zone anyway. Now that the others were back, he prefered to turn his attention to that for now.
