Lamia thought that all the different titles was confusing, but after thinking upon it a little bit, she was pretty sure she understood it. Raphael seemed like he would be providing her with all the things he mentioned a mother or father did, home, food, and care. He also said that after losing a parent a child often would come to call someone else father or mother. But she was glad that he didn't push that he could qualify to be a father to her by his own words. She wasn't ready to call someone father again, not yet. She still missed her first father a lot, and a part of her was afraid of attaching herself to someone like that again. It was a tricky situation for her, because she was used to having no one, and the one person she did have was taken from her. She liked Raphael, saw him as a good person, but she had been shown that allowing that sort of attachment doesn't often end well.<br/><br/>She was glad the subject changed back to food, except she had no idea what he meant by 'cooked' meat. "Um, I don't know, I guess I could try..." After walking a little while longer they came to another fruit tree. Lamia turned into a small Lemur and quickly climbed the tree to some of the higher branches, plucked two bananas from them and then climbed back down. Turning back into a human, she smiled at Raphael. "Let's find out!" She took a bite of the better one of the two. A disgusted look appeared on her face, then she opened her mouth and let all the fruit bits fall to the ground, she looked like she might gag. "That's nasty! I can't eat that." She frowned and let her stomach settle a little bit, then she pealed the other banana, this one was fairly brown and ripe, it was probably close to falling to off by itself. "This one looks yummier at least." She took a bite, it was mushy, which made it better, it didn't taste really good like she was used to, but it wasn't too bad. She ate the rest of it, then said. "I guess some of them are okay." The meat would probably work the same way, if it was pinker in the middle, it might be edible for her.
