"Thank you." Jess heads back toward Mitra and the 'Fire, grabbing paper and a pen from... well, somewhere handy.

Easy enough to find. Mitra gives a curious side glance as her friend writes

There's a lot of thinking and pausing and writing and thinking.......she doesn't share. Not yet. Maybe ever.

And Mitra is good humored about it "You make Eiluned curiousity a test sometimes"

"I'm sorry, really. I just have to sort it out for myself, for now."

"I know" She nods "IF and WHEN you can talk about it, I'm here. Until then, I'm still rooting for you"

and the food is served

"Thanks." Jess eats. Some. A bit.

And Mitra shares with her, "There's enough for two and a half here"

Jess...eats. Some. Nibbles.

Mostly she thinks and notes.

Mitra takes out her phone and texts

That gets... a glance.

She looks over "No worries, I'm not talking about you. Promise" A smile
