Zenith takes deep breaths and she finishes up, her hair tied back with a handkerchief.

Carra grunts and tosses in her unconscious state.

[Jasper19]

Barry is eating

Simon begins to glow a warm yellow as he heals carra

Lynn bites his nail

Kit watches

[Sharidi37495]

Zenith smiles apologetically. "Are you bored?"

Carra winces and stirs, slowly waking up. "Hey, what's the big idea?!" She sits up quickly, growling.

[Jasper19]

Barry shakes his head "no just hungry "

Lynn frowns " baby you were bleeding pretty bad "

Simon walks off

Kit looks at carra

[Sharidi37495]

Zenith frowns softly and starts to make some food for him.

Carra crosses her arms. "Well, I'm fine now. This isn't over, Kit."

[Jasper19]

Barry smiles and hugs zenith " I already ate you don't have to make me food"

Kit nods" ok but not right now "

Lynn nods

Simon yawns

[Sharidi37495]

Zenith makes a small sound of surprise, but she smiles and hugs him back. "It's okay, teddy bear, I like cooking. Besides, you'll be hungry later."

Carra grumbles under her breath, then sighs. "Fine. But I'm going out." She gets up and climbs out of the pit.

[Jasper19]

Barry nods " if you say so"

Lynn frowns " why are you so mad love? "

Kit walks inside and sits by Murphy

[Sharidi37495]

Zenith smiles. "I do. Now, do you have any preferences or allergies?"

Carra frowns, her arms crossed, staring at the floor. "Nothing. I'm fine."

[Jasper19]

Barry shakes his head " nope no allergies and I'll eat mostly anything "

Lynn frowns " c'mon you can tell me "

[Sharidi37495]

Zenith nods with a smile. "Great, because I'd hate to start over." A pot simmers, the oven is on, and she's cutting ingredients.

Carra sighs. "Look, you know how I always act all cool and nonchalant about my past as a street kid? Well, it's all a lie. I miss the few memories I have before my dad left, before my mom went off the deep end. I miss having a stable home and being perfectly fine with being sheltered. I miss... my childhood. It went by a lot faster than most people's, but I remember every moment. I miss the time before I got so used to prison that I'd memorized every trick to escape, the time before I had to memorize guard shifts and every detail about each guard, everything from rank to preferred weapon and favored side. I miss the time before I had to think through every word and action, before I had to play mind games past the ones on TV. I miss the time when... when I wasn't feared or despised or worshipped. When I was loved, and it was enough." Some time during her rambling, Carra had started crying.

[Jasper19]

barry nods " smells good "

Lynn hugs carra" carra you are loved I love you " he said holding her

[Sharidi37495]

Zenith smiles. "Thank you." She chuckles a little. "Do you plan on hugging me the whole time?" She playfully touches his nose as she teases him gently.

Carra hugs him tightly, crying softly. "I.. love you... too. I'm sorry I... vomited words.." she gasps.

[Jasper19]

Barry smiles " maybe "

Lynn shakes his head " don't be sorry I'm here to listen "

[Sharidi37495]

Zenith giggles a little. "Maybe I should call you Barnacle," she teases him gently. "But no matter, I've heard children get really clingy so this is great practice." She smiles at him and whistles as she cooks.

Carra sighs, and she smiles faintly. "I don't remember the last time I've cried like that. I don't think I've ever cried like that on a guy's shoulder. Not genuinely anyway." She cuddles with him and buries her face in his chest.

[Jasper19]

Barry stops hugging " children? " he says nervously

Lynn smiles and cuddles back" well now I'm here for you"

[Sharidi37495]

Zenith stalls and she laughs awkwardly, turning bright red. "Sorry it slipped out. I mean of course I want kids but I'm sorry we're so young so obviously I don't mean now and I'm so sorry I shouldn't have mentioned it so soon," she continues to ramble, turning more and more red.

"Yay!" Carra cheers with an adorable smile.

Redacted.....

[Jasper19]

Barry nods blushing " yeah and you know maybe like you said not yet " he says

Lynn smiles and gently kisses cara

[Sharidi37495]

Zenith smiles shyly, still bright red. "Right." She turns back to her cooking, hiding her widening smile at the fact that he had said 'maybe'.

Carra smiles and matches the kiss. She breaks it gently. "What was that for?" she says softly.
