"I'm fine… just a headache, nothing serious. My leg still hurts, but not as much as before." He shifted his leg, wincing a bit as it shot what felt like sharp needles all the way up his spine.

Celestia passed Robin a bottle of water.
"Here, drink this," she said. "It'll help calming the headache a bit."
Robin nodded, drinking some of the water. He knew being dehydrated here would be bad news for him.
"So everyone else is with the other survivors Fin mentioned," Celestia said, leaning back against the cave's wall. "Robin, tell me about yourself."
"Um, I'm 11 years old, I have a brother named Grayson who's 15, he didn't go on this trip. My parents were travelling with me… I have a weird affinity with animals, but no actual pets that can live in my house. In the forest next to my house, I have two deer, a buck named Arbor and a fawn named Papaver, a rabbit named Lilium, three birds named Goldenrod, Acorn, and Blackberry, and two wolves named Lupus and Luna. I like animals."
Celestia smiled.
"That's really nice," she said. "An animal can be a person's best friend. People who like animals are my type of people."
"Really? It's gotten me into trouble a fair few times… One time, I tried to make friends with a bear, and… well… let's just say I've got a couple ugly scars on my chest that say he didn't want to be friends."
Celestia laughed.
“I guess not all animals like making friends,” she chuckled. “I guess he thought you were a danger. Still, being able to make friends with animals is an amazing ability.”
Robin nodded. "Yeah, and another time I got my foot caught in a bear trap." He pulled up the leg of his jeans to reveal the scar. "Not really the fault of an animal, but it was pretty bad. Apparently the trap was poisoned, and I almost died."
(I'm back!)
(Yaay)
(… What do I do…?)

(Why don't leave us aaaa)
Skye came back to the cave with her arms full of wood for a fire, after having abandoned helping Fin. She dropped the wood in a pile near the center of the cave and sat down.
"Gosh, that was heavy!" she exclaimed.

(I've gotta watch a movie/show w/my family. It's our movie night.)
Robin shied away from the wood, knowing it would become fire soon. He wasn't sure how badly he'd panic at the sight of fire, so he just waited, hoping it wouldn't be too bad but knowing it would be.
Celestia noticed Robin shield himself, as if afraid. She looked into his line of vision, trying to find out what provoked it when her eyes landed on the pile of sticks Skye brought with her. First, she couldn’t understand why he was afraid of sticks. Then it clicked.
“Robin…” she started. “Are you afraid of fire?”
Robin looked at Celestia before nodding hesitantly.
Dara walked into the cave finally, her face exhausted. "I don't know what to say," she said, interrupting Robin and Celestia, "Mihaka is… Robin, you okay?" She suddenly noticed how pale he looked.
At the sight of the woman, Celestia tensed.
"Another survivor," she murmured to herself.
"Oh, hi, sorry, I'm Dara." She turned to Celestia and smiled. "I'd bandaged Robin's wound, although I see you changed the bandages. Had he bled through?" She crouched by the two of them.
"So… I'm guessing that means no fire?" Skye asked, giving the pile of sticks a withering look.
"Celestia," Celestia nodded in her introduction. "He did, unfortunately. I found some nonflammable disinfectant, so I think he won't get infected. I'm not a doctor, so I'm not sure."
She looked at Skye and then shrugged.
"I guess not," she replied. "We could keep it in the back of the cave if it's okay with Robin. It feels like it's going to get really cold."
