Frankly, Rob deserved the n** Chris gave him, and Sylvia didn’t feel bad for thinking so. He was being a s**t. She knew it was out of frustration, but he was still being a s**t. Sylvia wondered if he’d been watching the gator and seen, at all, that his large mouth was not, in fact, always open. She rolled her eyes and bit the end of her tongue in her own frustration.

She finally did groan at the third failed cure. She still couldn’t blame Izzy, but that didn’t lessen the disappointment. She felt bad that so many of Izzy’s cures were being wasted. She was trying so hard to give her opportunities, but Chris was not obliging. Rob’s ensuing fit, however, made Sylvia giggle a bit. Oh, it was so satisfying to see him absolutely fail to hit the great big gator after all of his complaining. If nothing else, there was that for redemption.

Songtao stepped in while Sylvia was slightly distracted reveling, but Izzy was still frustrated and threw a cure at Rob. Sylvia had to duck out of the way. Now this was just getting ridiculous. She stepped back as Rob went to block Chris and offered Songtao a try at trying one of her cures – which bounced off Chris’s nose. Rob then apparently felt the need to try himself, storming over to Izzy and stealing one of her cures to try for himself. He had the thought to provoke Chris into preparing for a bite, however, which made him open his mouth, and Rob was able to toss the swiss roll in. It almost wasn’t fair. And it certainly wasn’t satisfying to see Rob’s smug smirk. Sylvia watched his gloating with disdain.

Luckily, they had distraction. Chris was human again, and bereft of any scrap of clothing. Sylvia was almost glad she had given her sweater to Rafe and had nothing to offer Chris. She gave him a playful smile, watching him from behind her shield. “Welcome back, Chris.” She sighed, “Shall we head back to camp?” Without waiting for answers (because really, who was going to say no?), she turned to begin walking back. Along the path, she found another moly flower, and bent to pick it up. It couldn’t hurt to have more, even if she did suck at cooking…
