[ Matthias doesn't want to expend a great deal of creativity imagining a scenario that isn't likely to happen — as far as they know, everyone who could have arrived from their world is already here, and there are more pressing problems. The matter of survival still hangs over them, and in this, Nina is not only useful, she is needed. ]

Yes.

[ And this is a good opening. He takes his shot. Gently, ]

[ Nina still hasn't moved back; she smiles up at him. ]

[ Nina shifts her grip to twine her fingers through his in response to that look in his eye that, yes, she had been hoping to induce. It's a bold move that hides the fragile, yet overwhelming happiness she feels at seeing it. ]

Let us hope there's bread! [ A quick grin. ] If not, I'll settle for sharing whatever they have with you.
