She was half lounging on the ground, watching and listening to the rain fall when someones greeting caused her to look over her shoulder. "Hey." Melissa said with a friendly smile. She recognized Sydney, if she had to guess she figured she knew Adrian from home, based on the interactions she'd seen online.
Melissa appreciated the offer, but she shook her head. "Not at the moment, really. I'm just making sure they get some water. It's easier than trying to find ways to transport fresh water from the river to here." Even if she did have some sort of bucket to carry water in, she'd have to make many trips that would probably lead her to feeling pretty stiff the next day. Maybe this was cheating, but she was allowed.
