Miyuki rolled her eyes, because Kaito knew very well Mailon was coming. Between the fact they had to give everyone else a heads up and Miyuki working on his room, it was hard not to know.
Suki, paused in her leaf chasing and instead went after Kyrie and Mailon instead.

Kyrie grinned at Suki. "Hello, Suki. You're looking playful today. Or is that part of your training?"
She held a hand out to the Sylveon, knowing that she liked to hold peoples' hands as a means of communication.
Mailon kept up his same slow pace, but a faint smile spread across his face when Suki came to greet them so enthusiastically.

Suki wrapped a streamer around Kyrie's hand and walked along side her. All the while explaining with chirps and veons, along with streamer gestures that Miyuki had roped them all into helping her roast sweet potatoes. Clearly that went down hill pretty quickly, as they had gathered more than enough leaves and ended up playing with them instead.
Except Yasu who was the one helping tending to the smothering leaves.

Kyrie giggled. "Well, at least one of you is responsible enough to help out properly," she murmured.
"You seem to be in a good mood," Kaito quipped when Kyrie was close enough for conversation.
Kyrie smiled and shrugged. "Yes, well, sometimes when you fake it, it becomes at least somewhat real, and sometimes that's what you need." She glanced over her shoulder at Mailon, who had fallen behind again, and sighed softly. "One the one hand it's not as hard as I thought it would be to be around him, but on the other hand ... it's still straining."
She offered an unconvincing half-smile and shrugged again.

"It takes time," Miyuki replied from where she was at the fire pit.
She didn't add for the both of them, it didn't help she knew that Mailon wasn't use to talking with other people, or socializing.
"At any rate, it's perfect timing, I thought to roast sweet potatoes as a treat, and I heard that using leaves to do so give it a nice taste," she looked up at where the rest of the leaves they didn't use were hovering, "Might have gathered more leaves than we needed though."
Really, it only went south because the other two had nothing to do while it cooked.

Kyrie chuckled softly. "Boredom is the leading cause of mischief, I think."
She sat down next to Miyuki and leaned forward to smell the roasting potatoes. "It smells good, once you get past the smell of the smoke," she murmured, her smile widening. "Mind if I stick around to take part in the tasting?"
She grinned at Miyuki.

"Not at all, the more the merrier," she glanced over her shoulder to where Mailon was still making his way, "Want to get him settled first?"
She was sure it would keep him busy for a bit, the guy looked like he was still recovering. Though it made her wonder why he decided to come now if he was still limping.

Kyrie glanced at Mailon, and her expression softened ever so slightly.
"Yes," she murmured, "that would probably be best. He'll need to rest, too. Does he have a futon ready as well? Or will he need to borrow one for now?"
As awkward as things were for her with him around, she wasn't heartless. She was concerned for his well-being, to a degree.

"Everything is there, that is, there is a futon set in his room too," Miyuki told Kyrie.
And really nothing else, but it wasn't like they could get everything else. That was something that would take time and money.
"His room is beside mine at the end of the hallway."
His room was going to be there regardless since all the other spaces were taken up, it was just a question of whether he was going to be beside Andarien or Miyuki and Miyuki figured she might as well put it beside her room. She wasn't worried.

Kyrie nodded. "Thanks. I'll bring him there right away so he can rest."
She pushed herself to her feet and waited until Mailon was closer before she called to him, "Your room is ready. This way." And then she motioned for him to follow her to the tent.
Mailon was rather out of breath, but he made no complain as he followed her towards the tent.

Miyuki watched as the two disappeared into the tent before going back to tending the potatoes.
She didn't know how long it took them to get Mailon settled, but the sweet potatoes were almost done by the time Kyrie had arrived to the camp, so by the time the two had settled, Miyuki was carefully removing the roasted treats into a basket.
It was a bit hard because they were quite hot.

By the time Miyuki had finished with the sweet potatoes, most of the others had begun drifting back to the camp as well.
"Mmmm it smells good here," Shoneah murmured, her mouth watering as she approached the smoking fire pit.
Kyrie was just coming out of the tent at that point, and she smiled her agreement. "I'm looking forward to trying them," she said brightly.
Earendil was returning from a bath, and he was glad at that moment that his sense of smell hadn't been affected.

"I think I have all of them, right Yasu?" Miyuki asked.
Since he could go through without being burnt. Yasu sniffed around the pile before yipping in agreement. Suki was bouncing up and down in excitement while Ai was placing the leftover leaves in a very large (and jumpable) pile nearby.
Lin joined Earendil and grinned, "I smell roasted sweet potatoes...."

Earendil chuckled and grinned at Lin. "Whatever it is, it smells fantastic." He used the towel in his hand to rub his hair a bit dryer again. In the cold air, he would get a headache if it let it stay wet. Then he sat down next to Miyuki and grinned at her. "You're making my stomach growl."
"And mine," Shoneah admitted with a smile. She sat down and made herself comfortable.
"Mailon settled in all right?" Kaito asked Kyrie as she came to join them.
She nodded. "Yes. Fell asleep even before he took his things off."
"Should he be out of the clinic?" Shiro asked worriedly.
Kyrie shrugged. "He's healed up, it's just a matter of regaining strength now. He's been in one room for half a year now."

"After half a year, a change of scenery would probably be much appreciated," Lin commented.
"And he can sit outside instead of staying indoors," Miyuki added before asking Kaito, "Kaito, could you get the dishes? I don't have anything to skewer these with, so dishes will have to do, and forks."
They were really hot, now she understood the Gaian term "hot potato" no one wanted to hold these for more than a few seconds.
