hilda has experienced plenty of blood and guts in her life—she's seen to it personally that some men are cleaved in two on a battlefield—but in a fight, it's different. it's something you expect and grow used to.

week 4, monday
but they're in the kitchen now, for sure. ]
Alright then, what do you want to eat?
no subject
[ she's definitely not going to complain though—now she can also fork over this bracelet without feeling bad. ]
Hmmm... what kind of stuff can you make?
no subject
And, well. Yes? This is like a payment—- I wouldn’t be setting the price if this was to do with money.
no subject
[ If she gets her pick—and she will not argue much about getting to choose—what is just enough effort that she'd never make it herself... ]
What about a pie? Either savory or sweet. It'd be more than enough for us to share, too!
no subject
There's probably enough stuff to do that, sure. We don't have knives though, so I might have to use premade pastry.
[ it will still taste good though. ]
... If we do sweet then we'd probably have more choice of the filling. What's your favourite fruit?
no subject
I bet noa fruit would be great, but I haven't seen any.
[ a shame, really! they'll have to settle for something more pedestrian. ]
How about these— [ hilda is going to reach for some peaches when a convenient bubble forms, popping against her fingertips. ]
no subject
[ she's about to ask what a noa fruit is, while they go about collecting peaches for this pie and then--
well. enjoy the memory, hilda. it's fine, really. it's fine. ]

Alex... oh, that's so awful! What happened!?
no subject
... I'm not sure I could tell you myself. I didn't get the chance to see anyone before I came here, after this.
no subject
[ what a cliffhanger to leave off on. she frowns deeply. ]
Either way, I'm sorry—what a terrible moment to relive.
no subject
[ she's got a peach in her hands and is turning it over thoughtfully. ]
Is that a good or a bad thing?
w6, saturday
Hey—enjoying the breeze?
[ her voice is friendly, but soft. ]
no subject
[ she sits herself down next to her. there’s a bundle of flowers in one hand that matches some of the flowers that have been in her hair all day. ]
no subject
Yeah. It's good to enjoy what we have—who knows, we might end up in that stupid jungle come Monday.
no subject
Don’t even joke, I never want to see that jungle again.
[ she shifts a little so hilda can be a bit more comfortable, and wraps an arm around her shoulders. bunny cuddle time. ]
no subject
[ she just laughs a little and leans into the hug. the sadness and frustration lingers, but she likes this better. ]
Besides, I think we deserve a nice moment after this week.
no subject
... Right. We've got a bit of an unknown week ahead of us, haven't we. [ if they want to get everything right ]
no subject
[ her expression sobers a bit, thoughtful. ]
There's only about half of us left, and we're supposed to save everyone from this cycle without any idea how to do it... pretty scary if you ask me.
[ the responsibility of it is daunting. ]
no subject
[ they'll just have to be... ready to adapt. ]
