[In Person] - dated to the beginning of the event

[From the lake there was a coughing, sputtering, angry shriek that would likely catch anyone's attention that just so happened to be around. See, when you were napping then suddenly find yourself submerged in water?

Just a liiiiittle shocking.

She storms out of the water, sloshing her way onto the lake's shore, fire in her eyes.

The HELL just happened?! As she stomps towards where the Manor should be (scenery change AGAIN, how fun), she notices something very, very important is missing.]

...What a minute.

[She looks around a little frantically.]

...

Oh, this'll be fun.

Preechin' to the choir.

[He looks her over, then back to his bag of fish. He didn't want to share... He REALLY didn't want to share... but Megamind's friend. And she looked just about as miserable as he did. The teen let out an annoyed sign and shook his head a bit. Well looks like he's giving out charity...]

... You hungry?

I--

[She glanced at him, taking in the blood all over him and lifts a brow.]

...Yes. Actually, I am.

Get the wood and I'll start a fire.

[he takes a deep breath and hoists himself off the ground, letting out a strained grunt. He wobbles shakily for a moment before straightening himself up. He HATED having to rely on the help of others, but he was in no condition to get the wood. Hopefully it would come off as a 'pull your own weight' sort of thing rather than a 'I've got more aches than an old man sort of thing.]

[She eyes him for a moment, but decides against commenting, or asking if he needs help. Pride is something everyone needs to keep sometimes.]

You got it.

[She heads off in the opposite direction to grab as many logs that she can feasibly find and carry back.]

[While she's gone the teen works at gutting and preparing the fish. He could at least do that much. And wash himself up a bit. It would be kinda pathetic when your food looks like it's in better shape then you... and kind of gross to look at.]

[She comes back soon enough with her arms loaded with what coulkd be used as firewood.]

Here. This should be enough.

Cool.

[the teen quickly stacks the firewood with practiced ease, and lights it up with his lighter. TOTALLY neglecting any sort of ring of rocks around the fire. If something sparked rocks weren't gunna do shit to stop it.

Once everything is all nice and lit up the teen sticks the little fish kaboobs next to the fire so they can cook]

[Welp, Roxie isn't exactly a camping kind of woman, so no rock ring? No big. She's not a lot of help with building it either, but she can at least help cook the things. She's hungry enough to eat fish, and that's definitely saying something.]

[The teen leans back on his hands but is quickly forced to sit up again, his injuries didn't appreciated the added weight. He irritably flicks his spent cigarette butt into the fire, he'd pull out another one but he's only got one pack to last him the week.]

So, you like fish?

[Not that it's going to make a DAMN bit of difference...]

On principle, it isn't my first choice. [She leaned forward, rubbing her hands together.]

But it'll do in a pinch. What about you?

[He chuckles a little]

I grew up on Sicily then moved to Japan, all there is to eat is pasta and fish. As long as my sis doesn't cook it I'll eat about anything.

Ah. Makes sense.

[She smiles lightly.]

Your sister not the best cook?

She used me as an experiment for her poison cooking.

[He states this like it's COMPLETELY normal. The subject came up a lot, and he was rather used to explaining it. It was no big deal to him... as long as he didn't have to see his sister's face anyway. He takes one of the fish and examines it. It's done. He offers it to Roxanne first.]

Here.
