Chatting By The Fire

Blake was not offended at all by her 'cattle' statement. "I guess I should thank you. After all, I used to be human myself. I lived during the age you allowed to be created. Without you, I might not have been here." 

Vinea knew what was just said, but in her mind, all she heard was, 'Without you, my life would not have been complete. Let's get married!' 

Vinea's eyes were glazed over as she got lost in her own little world. Blake tilted his head to the side and looked at the girl who was making strange faces and then at Mile, who only shrugged in response. 

"Anyway. What do you plan to do from here on out?" Blake asked as he got up and found a flat spot, and laid down. He planned to rest up a bit before heading out to search a few more areas between the mountains.
