Camery Valatieri - Camery watched him for a moment, her eyes soft. He looked so... small. She sighed and gave a soft nod. He really just seemed to want her to stay. She sighed gently to him, standing up and offering him a careful hand. "Lunch would be nice," she replied to him. "And I need you to speak to my father, really speak to him," she whispered. She sighed, and went to get Jack, quickly explaining the whole situation to him. He looked... really concerned about the whole thing, which was fair enough. This man had begged and begged until she gave in, and it just seemed like so much pressue on the the girl.

Camery Valatieri - Camery explained things quickly, though Jack knew better than to ask too many questions. Camery wouldn't put herself in harms way, not intentionally. He sighed, crossing his arms and standing back, in his usual position. He really was in guard mode now, scanning everything and ensuring they were all safe. Camery watched the man for a moment, then looked back at Malakai when she noticed him. She smiled softly when the child came over, although he seemed nervous. That was fair, she was nervous too. When he greeted her, she hummed softly and sort of bent down so she was on his level. "Hi there," she chirped happily, a little smile spread across her face. "I'm Camery, what's your name?" She drawled her words out a little, trying to sound a friendly as possible.

Camery Valatieri - Camery watched the child squeak his name to her, a small smile spreading across her cheeks. She'd breifly seen this child before, when he was really young. Obviously, at the time, she would have thought nothing of him. She held a hand out for him to shake, her head cocked. "Well Duncan, it's nice to meet you," she chirped, keeping her voice soft. She stood up straight after a second, looking back at Malakai. "So, we were getting lunch?"

Camery smiled at the boys response, glad to see a smile on his face. He was a cute kid... it was nice to see a happy boy here. She looked up at Malakai again, her eyes soft. "That should be alright," she replied quiely.

Jack stuck close to Camerys side, standing over her protectively as he normally did. This was a strange place, and could admit he was a little nervous, despite his calm demeanour. If anything happened to her now, while he was meant to be watching her, that would be on him. Cam, though, just flashed a polite smile that had been trained into her from the start. It wasn't a friendly one by any means, just more like one that acknowledged they were there. When their seats were pointed out to them, she sighed gently before moving to settle down in the two spare seats, her hands lacing together as Jack sat next to her. This didn't feel relaxed at all... everyone but Kai seemed uptight.
