<span style="font-size: 18px"><span style="font-family: 'Georgia'">Another guy, a trainer, showing up in the camp?  Davey was wary.  This guy was really tall and made Davey feel nervous and defensive.  Having Toorop around wasn't that bad.  Fate had thrown them together to fight the outlaws, 'Blight Obsidian'.  Davey had accepted the fact that their group had become a trio and he might have to compete with Toorop if he wanted Jackie to look at him as 'boyfriend material'.  Now..., Davey felt even smaller....  But he wouldn't show any weakness or fear.<br/>
<br/>
He walked over to the group.<br/>
<br/>
"Yeah," Davey chimed in, trying not to look sullen or hostile, even though he felt hostile.  "It's a fair walk to the next town and depending on what we encounter in the rest of the forest, we might not even get there tonight."<br/>
<br/>
Then he asked Jackie, "Should I dice up another Oran berry for the curry?"  Maybe Jackie would see Davey as being willing to share and helpful?  But he also wanted to get back on the route and maybe leave this stranger behind, so he added, "But that's going to cut into the daylight traveling time, to cook extra."</span></span>
