The last few hours of sunlight were spent in utter silence between the two and although the islander was completely unaware of the minor inner squabble her partner was having, she had been perfectly fine with the silence. The souls that followed them had been chatty enough for the whole party that she tried to savor the silence when and if she happened by it. They'd started forming speech the islander could understand, but for the most part, she merely tried pretending she didn't see them. Still, they floated around her head, weaving in and out of her thick mane of dark curls; wary to leave her side for too long. The extra pair of eyes helped anyway as the islander was starting to feel the effects of having not eaten for several hours as well as the fatigue from a lack of sleep.<br/><br/>When the giant before her stopped abruptly to announce the set up of camp, she damn near ran into her, stopping just before ramming her face into their back. As her company went about chopping down branches and making a mockery of the nature around them, Eva just quietly followed suit. Being as small as she was had advantages as she scaled one of the trees with relative ease and swiftness despite her injuries. She found a branch that would take her weight and began massaging the branch with her heated touch until the bark gave way, forming a small groove in which she could lay comfortably. She'd managed to control the heat of her body perfectly so that the tree more so melted under her touch as opposed to burning to a cinder. Once the task was done, she hopped down from the tree, the branch already being relatively low to the ground. While the branch cooled off, the islander went about collecting a few of the branches discarded by her partner for being inadequate and placed them together in a pyramid shape. She settled down in the dirt next to the wood and placed her hands just over the branches, focusing for only a few moments until some sparks came from her hand, setting the wood ablaze in a matter of moments. With her place to sleep and a fire set, food was the last thing to take care of, but she had known nothing about the local fauna. It was then that her partner had finished her own sleeping area and attempted to strike up a conversation. Eva scoffed at her softly, raising herself from the dirt only to fall back onto them in a coughing fit. She winced and rubbed the blood from her mouth before looking back at the giant. The petite mocha hated the thought of showing weakness in front of a stranger. She quickly stood once more, only wobbling slightly before she managed to steady.<br/><br/>"Eva. Mah name is Eva." She paused to consider her partner's name a moment. "Jaspah." Her accent had morphed the giant's name into a slight variation of the original and even managed to give it some warmth. She shrugged a bit, accepting her partner's name before turning and walking off. "Ahm gon ah look fer food. Hope ya dun mind evereh'ting bein' fried..." She chuckled a bit at that, rubbing her side where the pain was resonating. Having heard a stream some ways back, she figured fishing might of been the easiest thing to grab for dinner and getting a chance to cool down would be an added bonus.<br/><br/><a class="username" data-user-id="673" data-username="@Corrupted Quartz" data-xf-init="member-tooltip" href="https://blackdahliaroleplaying.com/members/673/">@Corrupted Quartz</a>
