Given her previous line of work, Ava got used to going for long stretches without adequate food, stretching things thin until she had access to a supply one way or another. She hadn’t thought this far ahead this time; this was supposed to be a quick in-and-out. Instead, she was stuck out here with an older timer with a glowing eye and too many metal parts attached to his body to speak of. Still, he’d helped her this far. Who was she to judge? Or refute his offering of food? She took it willingly, despite her initial confusion. Watched as the edges of the marshmallow glob start to turn black. That’s when he rescued it and crammed it between two crackers and the unseen piece of chocolate. Curious. She was skeptical of his offering, plucking the thing that was already melting chocolate onto her fingers. Damn, when was the last time she actually had chocolate? Before he even finished speaking, half of the thing was in her mouth, a glob of melted marshmallow sticking out of the corner. She never thought this much sugar could taste so damn good. The gratitude showed all over her face as she went in for a second bite.
