Alexander took stock of the various plants Penelope was using to make her poultices and other concoctions, making mental notes of which he should keep an eye out for as she seemed to be running low on a few.<br/><br/>When she had finished her current project, he gestured that she should follow him over to his hut, where he slowly rummaged through his own shelves until he found a few wild onions and a small basket of various edible leaves, he did his best to dice the onion to later mix with the rice Baxter was cooking. When he was finished he joined the rest of the group by the campfire spreading a few large palm fronds as plates, waiting for Baxter’s cooking to finish. He gave Connor, Elise, and Henrietta a smile. It was good to see their generation turning into fine additions to the tribe.<br/><br/>Meanwhile, Baxter was putting the final touches on his cooking. Being around Miku and Elise had visibly areoused him, his erect manhood pushing his loin cloth aside, but he felt no shame at his display, it was natural and good to show an interest in others. It’s how the tribe survived.<br/><br/>Besides, there was more important tasks at hand. Food AlWAYS came first for Baxter. Realizing he had forgotten some things in the gut but not wanting the food to burn he undid his hide loin cloth and wrapped it around his hand to insulate them from the heat of the bowl. Even so he had to work fast, the heat worming it way through. Using a carved wooden spoon, he dollops Miku’s squid and a portion of rice into one frond, then put a quite a bit of rice on another, he and Alexander could share a plate. Finally he gave Penelope a generous share, many of the scars he had on his body had been treated by her. It never hurt to stay on the medics good side. Finally he placed the bowl with the remaining rice in a communal area while he took his sharks fillets and laid them on the mixture of vegetables and onions his uncle had mixed with the rice. He raised an eyebrow at the older man, when he realized Alexander had mixed some of the leaves and onion in Penelope’s food as well, but said nothing.<br/><br/>Instead he sprawled out and began to spoon the crispy meat and rice mixture into his mouth.
