Who: Nebula, Orion, whoever else?
Where: Route to Orion dorms from the caves
When: Day 135, afternoon sometime
What: Return from an extended trip to the caves

[There's a bloodied and scuffed up looking blank in... probably yellow, underneath the dirt, making his way back into the inhabited caves of Sabra la Tau from the less hospitable parts. Considering how dirty and tired he looks, he's probably been gone for a while, but he looks less pleased to be back and more irritated at how long it took to get here]

Finally.

Yes?

Where have you been? Are you alright?

Caves. And other than the thirst, hunger, and weariness, yeah.

Sit down. You should have something to drink first.

[getting up to get a glass of water]

[sits]

[brings the glass over along with a handful of jerky]

[takes the glass first and drinks but doesn't take the jerky]

You don't need to waste that on me. Even in this shape this killing some fish or a river lizard wouldn't take much effort.

But you said you were hungry.

So? It's not like the team has surplus. Let me rest for a while and I can go out and get something myself.

If that's what you want . . . but it's really alright for you to eat now. You can catch a little extra for dinner later instead if you're worried about it.

Whatever. I'd rather make myself useful.

[he does take some, though, despite that]

We won't think you aren't useful just because you're eating . . .

I get it already, I'm having some.

Um . . . alright.

[having some jerky, finally. finishes a piece before speaking again]

What, did you want something else?

No, you just seem a little . . . Did something bad happen out there?

Just getting attacked by wild dogs and spiders. Nothing I couldn't handle.

Spiders too?! Is that really something to be so calm about?

I'm back now, aren't I? Don't worry so much.
