<div class="floatleft">(http://i950.photobucket.com/albums/ad342/krystal_dragoness13/Naliya2.jpg)</div><strong>Who:</strong>Open<br/><strong>Where:</strong>Central cooking hearth<br/><strong>When:</strong>Late afternoon<br/><hr/><br/>Naliya couldn't help but smile when she saw Lars and he came right over to sit next to her. She tried not to think of all the things she and the girls had talked about in the sweat lodge. She knew if she did she'd start blushing and get nervous around him. That was the last thing she wanted. She liked the way he looked with his hair back just as much as she liked it when it was loose. She cleaned her hands a bit and looked curiously at the dried apricot he handed her. They didn't have apricot here but she remembered having some dishes involving it at the summer meetings. She hadn't ever had a dried one though. She took a bite of it and smiled, "That is delicious. I may have to trade for some at the summer meeting. What your mother made sounds very good. We do something similar with cherries or strawberries mixed with apple. We have a lot of cherries around here."<br/><br/>The young woman noticed the tool sitting next to him as she was finishing the apricot. She looked at it curiously, "You made that? May I see it?" While she was hopeless when it came to making such tools herself both her father and brother were experts so she knew a good one when she saw it. She was more innovative when it came to making things for her animals; especially things for Tikka which would benefit the camp as well. When he handed it to her she looked it over and tested it a bit. "This is very nice. I like that it has a handle. My hands are so small I sometimes have problems using axes. Valko has to make special smaller ones for me but they aren't always as effective as the larger ones. You should show this to Valko. I know he'll be impressed too. You two should definitely sit and talk sometime. I think together you could come up with some amazing things." she said then handed it back to him with a smile. She turned back to her work of skewering the meat for dinner then asked, "Would you mind doing me a favor? Will you please fill that big pot with water and put it there to boil?"
