Zompania Draft: Coming Home

[frost_jewel]

Who: Anyone drafted to Zompania, or recruited as reinforcements, or left behind in the village. SO. Everybody!
What: The draftees and reinforcements return to the village.
When: May 26, early early in the morning
Where: Back in Luceti
Summary: Most draftees and reinforcements return to Luceti in the very early hours; now, instead of a medevac site for the draft, the village is a welcome (?) refuge from the nightmare of Zompania for its own. There's a high likelihood it still looks a lot like it has in the past few days; those in the fight didn't even get a chance to shower before returning.

(This is the place for all your post-draft trauma and reunions and every other thing. Have fun! And don't forget to entry-tag your character.)

All right. [She's so glad she'll be able to help James not feel so hungry!]

I made chocolate cake and spice cake. Which one do you like best?

[universal_charm]

Chocolate, please.

_{[ He follows her, glad that walking wasn't quite so painful. ]}

[lostinmyway]

Okay!

[She sets off...but then she notices that there just isn't a bounce to his step today, and so she stops.]

Would you like some help?

[universal_charm]

_{[ There probably won't be a bounce for awhile, Grune. ]}

No, I'm okay, just moving kind of slow. Kind of sore. Don't worry about it.

[lostinmyway]

All right.

[Even if he says he doesn't need any help, she makes sure not to leave his side all the same.

Once they arrive at the table, she picks up her cake server and asks:] Which kind would you like?

[Grune, he just told you.]

[universal_charm]

Chocolate.

_{[ He doesn't mind repeating himself, it's actually... almost nice, because it makes him answer things instead of focusing on how his body still hurt or the things he had seen. ]}

[lostinmyway]

Okay! [She makes sure to cut him a nice, big piece. Good thing he isn't Spock.] There you go.

[universal_charm]

_{[ He took it, though he knew just by looking at it he could never finish it. Still, he didn't want to make Grune upset, so he tucked int, albeit slowly, and savored the taste of the chocolate. ]}

Did you make this, Grune?

[lostinmyway]

[She watches him with pleasure.]

Yes, that's right. I made the cakes so everyone could have something nice when they came back.
