Where There Is Desire

Duchess was too caught up in taking care of their lunch to truly notice the emotional expression that Indigo tried to hide, but she had noticed as he turned away, only a glimpse of the strange feelings he was pulling together from the fruit.

It was an odd response, she was expecting the normal meat kind of answer. Perhaps duchess didn't really have the delicacy of honeyed strawberries. She was always out fending to survive, she unfortunately wasn't looking for berries to sweeten. She looked at him a few seconds, not sure how to respond. She didn't want to ask him about something that would bring up those sadder emotions. But it was tucked away into her mind. "Can't say I've ever had... strawberries. Maybe you can show me sometime." She offered a smile, genuine to wanting to share the memory, or change it to a happier one, whatever would make Indigo feel better in the end at least. She knew of like elderberries, or wild black and raspberries. But she had never heard of strawberries, not that she would have preferred fruit over meat anyway.

She placed two clothes in front of Indigo and where she would lay for the meal, and pulled the seasoned and flamed meat from the fire, pulling the skewer out after placing Indigo's piece in front of him. She set hers up second, and found herself at an angle across from him, "You can chose our meal next time." She smiled, since the thought of the sloth didn't seem typically like a good one to him. She gently took a bite of the meal, it was a bit gamey but not like she hadn't had before. It reminded her of pork but not quite, it had it's own unique tang to it. The seasonings helped with the strange, new taste. She probably would stick to her usual deer if possible, but it wasn't a bad option and if it was for her survival she wouldn't complain.
