They walked that way for a good amount of time, in near silence. Nishka was curious about the other woman, but she held her tongue...for a little while.<br/><br/><strong>"Calypsa, right? Hi again,"</strong>she murmured, with a small wave.<strong>"It's nice to meet you. We didn't have much time before, but...it's really nice to meet you."</strong>She felt so odd, and giddy; and she just knew that she was sounding stupid to the other girl as well.<em>Nice to meet you? We're probably going to die, but hey, nice to meet you. Good one, silly.</em><br/><br/>Finally Nishka stumbled onto another topic of conversation. Food! She had a few sweet biscuits in her satchel, and now seemed as good a time as any to eat them. She hadn't had much food in the past day, and her belly grumbled to remind her. Calypsa was probably just as hungry.<strong>"Want one of these?"</strong>she asked as she unrolled soft, purple cloth and revealed a pair of biscuits.
