Havenwood rolled his eyes as he turned to the kitchen's ice-box to pull a fresh morsel of meat. Thank goodness Elise isn't vegetarian.

"Do you even eat any plants around here? I haven't eaten something green since…well, actually, I didn't eat anything like that in the city, either, so that would be…" Elise looked up, then back to Havenwood in surprise. "I actually don't remember eating anything that grew out of the ground in my entire life. Ever."
Havenwood cast her a look over his shoulder. "I can get you some corn if you'd like. Maybe for lunch."
"Yes, please. I wonder what it tastes like…" Elise moves to her own thoughts, staring at the wall.
"It's pretty good," Havenwood assured as he chopped the head off of a pheasant.
Elise snapped back to Havenwood. "Sorry, what did you say?" Don't zone out like that! It's weird! She thought to herself, but it had become habit as there weren't usually many people she talked to in the city.
"Oh? I was just saying that corn is okay." He plucked a feather off of the ground. "Do you want a feather?"
"Sure, why not." She took it and began to separate the barbs and curl each around her finger.
Havenwood took a second once he was done and tucked it behind her ear.
The barbs whisked against Elise's face, but she didn't protest, instead smiled at him.
(gtg to get hamburgas)
(Oki)
Havenwood smiled back and walked back over to the pheasant. He extracted the breast and the legs then started cooking them.
Elise sighed. What is my life now? The questions hadn't occurred to her until just now. It was a question long overdue.
Havenwood hummed gently as the meat cooked. He flicked the dirt from out of his fingernails and looked around idly.
Seriously, kid. You gotta get your life in order, yo! You're in love with a Greek God, you're friends with Athena, enemies with another, making guns for a fourth, and am promptly living luxury. What the crap happened, yo? She thought.
Havenwood yawned widely, stretching out along the wall, unaware of what she was thinking about.
Should you leave? A small voice asked. Heck no! I can't even if I wanted to! Was the retort.
Havenwood checked on the meat idly, humming still.
Yo kid, are you sure you wanna live this life? Her mind asked. Marry a god? Elise scowled at herself. What makes you think I'd marry him, yeah? She laughed at herself. Last night, kid. You ain't got many other options. Another scowl.
Havenwood glanced at her over his shoulder. "Who are you scowling at?"
Elise was jerked out of her thoughts. "Sorry, what? I was thinking to myself."
"Whatcha thinking about?" Havenwood turned around so he was facing her.

"Things. Stuff. That I probably should have gotten over with a while ago." She doesn't laugh, but she doesn't go all-serious, either. She doesn't want to worry him.
Havenwood studied her, noticing she probably didn't want to talk about it. "Alright, if you say so."
"Thanks." Elise turned back to the wall. See? You can't even tell him the truth. This warranted a fist against the table.
Havenwood jumped a little and looked at her again. "Are you sure you're alright?"
