"Mm, I don't know. Cheetos and Milky Ways sounds like a special kind'a hell," Freya says around her asparagus. She takes another thin piece, taking the time to start slicing up her steak as she chews. After swallowing, she tries to focus on talking to give her stomach time to adjust. No doubt it shrunk over the course of this adventure. She's oblivious to Pen's gaze, focused as she is.
"I wish. Nothing to hunt. El and Yuri got to the only alligator we found first. No one was sure if the mutant rats or the yeti was safe to eat." Freya's mouth twists a little in disgust. "Probably would've tried if we didn't find the canned stuff later that day."
She pauses. "Had a couple of kids with us. Mostly older high schoolers, but... one was pretty young. Maybe 13, 14. Responsible kid. Pretty tough. Hope this isn't gonna stunt his growth." Not to mention she had other reasons to worry about Ritsu. Maybe she should try to contact him. Freya shook her head to clear the thought, turning back to her steak. "I was one of the oldest there. Me and some rich guy. Wasn't right."
