Starting Out

[Jim Hawkins]

January 20th

Jim walked around the camp, still in awe of the sheer beauty of the Pridelands, and Africa. He was heading to where he assumed the food was since the smell of it was obvious. He felt his stomach growl. He headed into where the food was and sniffed again. It smelled amazing. 

He headed to the source to find a familiar looking man with his back turned. "Hello? What is that great smell?"

[John Silver]

(OOC: I'm assuming that they have already met at this point in Jim's intro thread)

"Jimbo, ye known when ol' Silver's in the kitchen everything i cook smells good" The ursid turned from flipping a slab of meat in one of the pans to face his cabin boy with a warm grin. "I take it you want a bite of it?" he questions, cybernetic eye zooming in on the young man. "It tastes great to" he pauses to taste a bit of the sauce that he had poured over the slab of meat.

Jim smiled at Sliver, but his mouth watered when Silver showed him the piece of meat. "Yes please," he said, not taking his eyes of the meat. He crept closer until he was close enough to grab it. He then asked, "So Silver, how has being Freedom Fighter been?" His eyes gleamed with genuine curiosity. He hoped to still get that meat though.

Silver cuts off a piece of the meat and puts it on a nearby plate, pouring a bit of the sauce ontop of the cut of meat before passing it off to the man. “Eat up boyo” He rumbles with a sly smirk “I’ll be expecting you to keep fit while your here. Just because i’m the cook doesn’t mean ya get extra dessert” he jokes nudging him with his flesh elbow. “It’s been good so far. Met plenty of new faces. Although I did hear that Aladdin bailed out during his first battle, leaving his troops to god knows what” was the cyborg annoyed at the man’s behavior. Of course, rightly so at that. “I’d say the lad wasn’t ready to step foot on the battlefield” He gives a shrug turning back to his cooking.

Jim devoured it. While he ate, he listened to John Silver talk about camp life and such. But then the topic of Aladdin came up, he stopped eating. He was only 3 quarters finished. He had heard about the incident in Austrailia, even with his short time there. He wiped his mouth with his sleeve and turned towards him. "Really? Hmm... that sounds awful," he said. He pushed the plate aside and asked, "Do you know anything more about the incident?" he asked.

[John Silver]

“I don’t” The cyborg shook his head looking down at the food he was preparing for the troops. “Where’s Morphy?” The little shapeshifter should been glued to the captain yet, Silver saw no sign of his old pet. He knew that Jim wouldn’t let anything happen to the little pink blob of mischief else John wouldn’t of even gave him to Jim. Silver finishes up cooking the meal and places it in a warming tray for later.
