I don't trust nobody
Cool. Another single word answer and it was the closest to a compliment she thought she would get from the likes of him. Maeve grew quiet again, focusing on eating instead of talking. She packed away what was left in her makeshift bag for later. Maeve figured she could collect some other things as they travelled today if they kept close to the creek they found. At least they would have a constant source of water today.
She stood, retying her boots and braiding her hair messily to try to keep it out of her face. It was difficult given that the tar has caked itself into the strands, locking them together, but she managed. Maeve followed after him, chewing at her bottom lip as she sidled up beside him. "We should travel along the water. It might lead out to the coast." She offered as a suggestion, already starting forward with him in the opposite direction that they came.
Another day of walking. More sore feet and heavy legs. At least they were able to stay hydrated. That was an improvement. Still, the landscape blurred and the sun burned above them, beating onto their skin without care for the harshness of its rays. She was going to have a sunburn on top of everything else. How wonderful. She wasn't sure how long they walked, but eventually they slowed again to take a break. "Any of this looking familiar to you?"
