Places where you were hallucinating constantly?

[bywolves]

Didn't hallucinate. But I was hungry and cold. Not so far off.

[devoutish]

Very far off. Two very basic elements does not Norfinbury make.

[ He rolls his eyes. ] You're arguing just to argue, now.

[devoutish]

I'm not. I can guaran-fucking-tee, right, that neither of us have been anywhere like this before. We face new things every day. That's not something to dismiss.

We do all right on our own, but we're better together.

[bywolves]

[ Royce pulls his hood down further. ]

Right. This is better than being alone. [ That's sarcasm. A lot of sarcasm. ]

[devoutish]

Sometimes you do make me wonder.

[But he's still not going anywhere. So there.]

[ Royce doesn't reply, just pulls his blanket closer and practically hides in it. He needs a while to cool off, to reconfigure.

Later in the night, though, he'll get up and make his way over to Alfie to sit next to him, cloak gone, his blanket being used as a replacement. He sits almost close enough to be touching, and doesn't say anything quite yet, just... is there. He's trying to figure out if he wants to say anything. ]

[Alfie doesn't say anything either, but he does turn to look at him. It's just a look at first, with a raised eyebrow - but then he holds out the bag of potato chips he's eating from, offering some to Royce.]

[bywolves]

[ There's a pause, and then Royce takes one, quietly munching on it. He digs into his pack, and pulls out a little snack-pack of apple slices and peanut butter. He opens it, and then offers one to Alfie in return. ]
