Breakfast P.1: Extra Cafe: Trudy and Mouse

[mother_trudy]

"Good Morning Mouse," Trudy was a bit more chipper than she had been when she'd woken up, glad now to see someone show up for breakfast. She had begun to think that no one was going to wake up this morning, and that all of this food would be wasted. At least they had refridgeration, so the fruit could last a bit longer, but still, for her to get

"Ahh yes, Brady fell asleep before dinner too, I'm surprised she didn't come skipping in here demanding to be fed first thing," Trudy cocked her head to the side and considered this. Ever since the virus they hadn't always had constant meals, when Brady had been a baby it had been hard to keep up with her needs, since supplies were so limited and Trudy wasn't able to breast feed. This thought made her blush, she might have been able to, but she didn't care to try, she'd been such a foolish girl back then.

"Whales you say? Whales are, that's something new," Trudy shook her head, the things kids learned about despite school, it was amazing. Why, Trudy hadn't even thought about Whales since she was in school, a very long time ago indeed. As she gathered the cups and silverware and dishes for breakfast, Mouse asked about Tai-San and Trudy nearly lost the lot. "Tai-San? Oh," she wavered, glad to be interrupted by Patsy.

"Good Morning Patsy, no, Salene and Ryan, Brady, and perhaps Cloe and Ved now, and I've heard some people moving around, but I haven't seen anyone," she said a bit brightly, catching the stack of bowls before they tipped too far over. Setting them on the edge of the counter, she smiled at Anna and the girls, "Morning you guys, I'm glad to see more people, no it's not usually this quiet, but things are starting to pick up I guess," her smile was brighter, "Do you think one of you could help Mouse with the water and such? She's over there, in the Second Cafe at the cooler, where we keep the drinks?"

"I will Trudy!" Flower called brightly, running off in the direction of the cooler she'd seen people take pitchers out of yesterday. Mouse was not there, however, and Flower just shrugged and opened the door to take out a pitcher of water, she'd find Mouse along the way and leave this...well somewhere.

Flower was in decidedly better spirits now, since Willow had apologized, Flower couldn't resist her when she made those big blue eyes look so sad. Having hugged her before skipping off to breakfast together, Flower was back to her bouncy self, though she did still feel kind of really exhausted from it all, and her eyes kinda hurt from having cried, but it'd pass.

Heading towards the Main Cafe, Flower ran into Mouse, "Hihi!" she cried brightly, smiling bigger than needed, "I've got this pitcher of water, where should I put it?"

Flower may have been put instantly back into a good mood by Willow's smile and hug, but Willow was still feeling like there were a million feet inside of her pressing on everything wrong at all of the wrong moments. Climbing the stairs had been especially yucky, hurting from front to back, she wanted to lay down at the top of the stairs and relax but opted instead to at least make it to a chair in the Extra Cafe, in the back, where she could watch what was going on in the kitchen and stuff.

She was glad that Flower offered to help out Mouse, watching her run off before laying her arms on the table top and putting her head on them. She felt wrung out, and only slightly hungry. Looking out at her sister and the other people of her Tribe, Willow wanted to ask what was for breakfast, but she didn't have the motivation or the strength to raise her voice loud enough. She'd just have to wait then, she'd find out soon enough.

Moon wandered into the Cafe, wondering if she was too early for breakfast. She had woken a while earlier, but she had not risen immediately, rather enjoying a few minutes of peace before her brain had woken up completely. The first thing that had entered her mind was being on the balcony with Danni, not last night, but the night of the Hen Party - it still seemed the biggest event, the turning point, and every memory took its foundation from that moment.

Looking around the cafe, Moon saw Mouse and Flower busily getting breakfast ready, and, hungry as she was, Moon was just about to go and see if she could lend a hand too when she noticed Willow slouched at a table at the back - she didn't look very well. Moon made her way over to her and sat down, reaching out and touching her arm gently.
"Willow... are you alright?"
