Sometimes it's the little things

A bit of movement from the corner of her eye caught her attention just as she was rotating the leg of mutton one last time over the fire and she glanced up, a grin crossing her lips as Saracyn came over to join her after dropping off his sword for the day. "Indeed I am, handsome," she replied, pulling the venison steaks off of the fire before they over cooked before she turned toward where he had settled on the cushions to give him a quick kiss. As he began to question what kind of special occasion this was for and how much apologizing he should be preparing to do for it, Ava giggled and shook her head, giving him a grin. "No special occasion so you can save your apologies this time. We just haven't had a proper date night in a long time and didn't feel like waiting for some special day to do it."

She turned and picked up a pair of smooth, polished wooden planks that would serve as plates and put them down in front of where he was laying and where she would soon join him and then quickly went about plating the venison and sides before pulling over a wider, stone slab to be the platter for their leg of mutton. It was probably more food than the two of them could eat in one sitting, but what was a date night without a bit of a feast? With her plating done, she finally flopped down onto the bedding beside him with a contented sigh, nuzzling her cheek into his. "Go ahead, dig in!" she encouraged before reaching a white-tipped paw forward herself to skewer one of the pieces of carrot with her claw. "Hopefully the mutton isn't over done. Always hard to tell with cuts of meat like that. The venison should be perfect, at least."
