<i>"Welcome home dear"</i>Eva smiled at the tease, relieved that Jasper still had some humor about her, but she could see the woman's tough claws digging into the wooden desk she currently loomed over. It was with a thin veil of sarcasm and teasing that they managed, just barely, to hide the overwhelming sexual tension Jasper was giving off. Or at least they tried to. Jasper rushed them along, leaving Eva wondering to herself why she even bothered getting so much food in the first place. There was no sense carrying extra weight that could just be ingested. Even as she was trying to think how to get everything into a more manageable and mobile space, she was interrupted by the dragonkin who was clearly riding the very edge of her willpower as it was.<i>"God you smell so amazing... I just want to lick you all over."</i>Eva froze for a moment before a chill down her spine broke the spell and she let out a soft breath. It was hard not to react to such things, verbally or physically, when they came out of nowhere like that. When she had her body back under control, she quickly shuffled into the bag at her feet, pulling out one of the turkey legs she bought at the market. The size of it almost matched her head and the weight was nothing like the fish she was used to eating, but perhaps a full stomach would slow the dragon rider's stride a little in terms of wanting to fuck everything in her path. The islander made her way over to Jasper and unceremoniously shoved the turkey leg into the woman's mouth, staring hard up at her face as she did so. "Eat." It was a suggestion delivered like an order wrapped up in a stern voice. While her partner was preoccupied, she made her way around the room, gathering things together in bundles. She'd made herself a sizable one she felt she could carry without straining her chest, even adding a few more things to her mass and hoping Jasper wouldn't notice. Everything else but a few fish were bundled into a pack that Jasper could carry. Her pack was nearly half the size of Eva herself, but she had to admit the woman had plenty of height and muscle to the point that it shouldn't be an issue.<br/><br/>When it was all said and done, she clapped her hands of the dirty work and plopped herself down into Jasper's nest to finally have a bit of food herself; though she would try to eat quickly as they still had a long journey ahead. The islander had seen the X on the map and already figured the distance in her head. A day's time wasn't so bad, but she also had to factor in the fact that she hadn't cooled her temperature down yet today and when it being so humid in this village, she could feel her internal temperature rising quicker than usual. There was no sense bathing before leaving, though, as she didn't want to risk Jasper being in the village any longer than she needed to be; and even more so by herself. There was no way she'd drag Jasper along to the pools just to keep an eye on her. Nibbling on her pre-cooked fish, Eva glanced over at the dragon rider, hoping to prolong the need to cool down as long as she could. The further from the village they got, the safer everyone would be from Jasper.<br/><br/>As she looked the woman over, it was then that she'd finally noticed Jasper's horns were starting to grow back. It was slow going at first, but they seemed to have really sprout in the last day. Was that because of her salve? There was still so much she didn't understand about the woman before her. "Ya horns'ah growin' in nicely. D'ya think mai salve hadda hand in dat?" she chuckle softly, hoping a brief conversation while they tried to fill their bellies might distract Jasper from her inner turmoil.
