[ she giggles a bit as she scrapes off another serving. ] Whipped cream? What sort of name is that? I just hope it tastes good. Ooh, we really should have brought some berries from the altar. We'll get some later, after we find Kit.

[ as she returns to orcelito with another plate full of cake, she happily chews on a bite while looking at him. the smile falters just slightly at the question, but out of confusion. ]

Mhm... [ contemplating, she lowers her fork to her plate. ] At first it was strange. The forest was right outside but it felt like a different world in there. [ which is an odd thing to say when she's only been camping outdoors for a few months until coming here. before then she had a house and bed of her own (always moving over the years, for her own safety). it illustrates just how much being on the run changed her. a few months felt like years. ]

Then it became boring. I didn't imagine you and Kit would be gone for so long... I had others to talk to but I like you two the most. But still, I never left the house. I made a promise to you. [ her expression relaxes. ] But I had to do something, so I brought those petals in.
