Ruty frowned as he started to become exauhsted from his sudden burst of mixed emotions. He slumped against the cave wall, "look at me, Raven. It looks like I came from the sewers." He said quietly.

Raven shook her head, but looked up at him anyway. "You look perfect. I'm not sure what everyone else thinks, but you definitely don't look like you came from the sewers."

[HutchtheHeinous]

Ruty closed his eyes and sighed, "maybe I don't look like it, but I sure feel like I came from the sewers..." He said quietly. "None o this crap ever would have happened if I hadn't set off the damn bomb..." He said sadly.

"There's no need to beat yourself up over it," Raven told him quietly. "It's not your fault. You didn't know. I hate that you blame yourself. I wish you could have them all back." She paused, considering whether or not she should ask the question she had in mind. "Who- who did you kill? Your family...who were they?"

[HutchtheHeinous]

Ruty looked down, "my mother- Ellie. My father- Jack. My brother- Barren. My sister...they never found my sister Anya..." He said quietly, looking up at her.

\sorry, my little cousins is clawing at me at the moment, so it's been hard to reply :I/

(It's alright. That sounds really annoying. ;n;)

"Oh," Raven replied quietly. "I'm sorry, Ruty. You lost everyone. You didn't deserve that..."

[HutchtheHeinous]

Ruty looked up at her, "I-it's..." He sighed, "it was a long time ago. It's past now..." He said quietly. "I just needed to let it all out..."

[grapebats]

"I'm glad you feel a little better." Raven smiled, but not really with happiness. She leaned over and kissed Ruty on the cheek before laying back down. "I think I'm gonna go to sleep. Goodnight, Ruty. See you in the morning, yeah?"

(I shall sleep too. Nighty night. c:)

[HutchtheHeinous]

Ruty lied down and smiled lightly, "g-goodnight, Raven..." He said quietly, snuggling up close to her. He didn't fall asleep for a while, just stared at the roof of the cave.

Raven woke much earlier than she would have liked to the next morning. There was hardly any light outside, and the cave was still dark. She heaved a sigh and gave her best go at attempting to sleep again, but she gave up after awhile. She felt very burdened by yesterday's events and she was still chilled over the news of Ruty's family's death. She could hardly be disgusted or angry, though, because she knew he was sorry and regretted it more than anything. Eventually, she carefully slid away from Ruty so she wouldn't wake him up and stood up from the cave floor. She had an idea that was much easier than yesterday's for finding food, but, as usual, there was a flaw. Transfiguration - she could transfigure something into food but she had to be very careful about it. She couldn't change something too large or she'd never be able to change anything else. So, she spent the first hour or so of her time after she woke up turning tiny rocks into pieces of bacon that were only as big as the rocks had been. She truly hated magic - or, at least the kind she was able to use. By the time she had collected all of the small pieces of bacon, her back was hurting and she felt more exhausted than ever. She began to walk lazily back into the cave.
