"I'll have what Charlie's having," Rylee replied quietly as he picked at more of his food. The food was good, he liked Cat, he was happy to be by Charlie, but he really didn't want to discuss the blackout again.
"Yeah, maybe it was a squirrel. They're rather evil," Rylee mumbled before eating some more. Then he thought of a rather glorious topic in which they could change subjects. "So what do you do, Cat? Aside from feeding Charlie and I really good Thai food." He forced a smile although it wasn't that he needed to force his thankfulness to Cat, he was happy to be there, it was only that smiling after their brief dive into the subject of the blackout was somewhat hard to do. Still, Rylee managed and grinned at Cat before giving a more tight lipped smile to Charlie as if to say, See? I managed!
