"All right, Tear's cooking!" Luke stepped quickly back from the fish. "This'll be almost as good as the maids at home!"
"Luke!" Tear got to her feet and brandished her weapon. "If that's how you feel you can do it by yourself."
"Tear -!"

"Oh, like you're any better?" Luke crossed his arms and gave Jade a look. The Malkuthian looked down and adjusted his glasses. After a moment, the red head seated himself on a log near the fire.
