I don't trust nobody
Maeve heard the sound of running water the same time that Rigby did and her eyes went wide at the sight of his grin. One that she found herself returning as she rushed after him towards the creek. She fell to her knees beside him, dunking her hands into the water and washing them clean; scrubbing what she could of the grime away from her skin before lifting scoops of water to her mouth. Maeve drank and drank and drank until the dryness in her throat finally seemed to dissipate. She sighed, falling back onto her haunches as relief settled over her. Water was good. This was good.
She took a moment to breathe and let the water settle in her belly as Rigby did the same. There was a chance that she could find them some vegetables if they were near water. Some Deepfrost roots that hadn't withered away yet. Maeve looked around slowly in the fading light, trying to spot somewhere that might be suitable to rest besides a tree. Coming up with none, Maeve spotted a large tree that would do them for the night. "I think I have enough berries for us to split tonight. I can look for other food tomorrow morning."
