Regan still didn't like Tyler's father... and she was ready to gut him like a fish, but all the same Tyler had wanted him here. He was convinced his father had changed... and she just didn't want him to be disappointed if that wasn't the case. She just wanted to protect Tylers feelings... that was all she wanted to do. Protect him.

Tyler shifted. He had picked enough strawberries for the two of them... and Regan had more. "Lets go eat." He said quietly, walking back into the clearing (my brain has completely blanked. I might edit this... but right now I'm exhausted lol)

Regan nodded lightly to the boy before following him back towards the camp. "Why are you still in a tree?" She asked with a cocked head, a bit of a laugh escaping her. She knew he wasn't exactly comfortable with another person... but if he really wanted they could get a camp cot and they could share a room. She wouldn't have really cared. "I mean, at some point you're going to fall out of that tree and really hurt yourself... nobody needs that, do they monkey?" She asked with a bit of a teasing smile.

Tyler glanced at her. "Well remember how there were only two spots? Well I had resigned to just sleep with that Mitch dude, but Aaron decided he also wanted to... and he got to. I slept in the tree because there were no more spots left." Tyler shrugged, continuing and putting the strawberries down. He looked at her, his dark eyes narrowing slightly. "If I'm such a 'monkey' then I never fall... or at least when I do, I catch myself." Tyler snorted, taking a berry and eating the end.

(Oh, cool! I'll have to find some of Regan lol)
Regan rolled her eyes a bit at the thought of his dad kicking him out of bed... or, rather, Tyler hadn't shouted at him for it yet. "You can stay with me. Why don't we top and tail it?" She joked lightly, knowing full well that there wasn't room for the both of them even if they tried. Or if they wanted to. "We can kick Lily out and have her sleep on the firepit for warmth," she joked lightly before shaking her head. She grabbed more than enough berries by now, though was admittedly eating them on the way back.

Tyler snorted. "Yeah... that'll never work. The Lily idea might be a good one though..." Tyler mused. He was joking... obviously. "Maybe I'll just sleep on the floor and y'all won't even know I'm there." Tyler chuckled. This was one of the first times his speech slurred slightly as his southern accent really came through. He cleared his throat and glanced around camp. There was Aaron... no doubt making best friends with every important person. Tyler flinched slightly... there was a good chance Aaron would finally try to kick both of them out... and the other guy would approve... because they were friends.

(Quick Question: With the links to the guy I based Tyler off of... was that how you imagined him? Just asking to see how accurate I wasn't in describing him lol)

(I think I was imagining him a bit younger, but otherwise all good!)

Regan chuckled in response to him before shaking her head. "We could try it," she mused. They got back to the camp after a kind of nice walk, but she bumped his side as she saw his father. Tyler just had to be nice to him, is all... get on his dad's good side. "Just be nice, monkey," she joked before shaking her head a little bit. She wandered over to the pot to help ut with breakfast before putting the berries to the side for anybody to help themselves to, then got both her and Tyler a bowl.

Tyler glared at her. "I think it's my dad you has to get on MY good side." He grouched, sitting down on the bench. He fiddled with a dagger while Regan helped with the food. Tyler felt like he should be doing something... but he didn't know what to help with. "Thanks." Tyler nodded, taking the bowl of fruit.

Regan shook her head a little bit. "I know you don't like him, but Tyler, we don't want to cause any trouble here. Maybe you'll start getting on better if you try," she murmured, knowing he might hate her for even suggesting it. She sat with him, and practically inhaled her food. She was so tired... but all the same, she was hungry... she wasn't as thin as she was, and while she wasn't at all healthy, you could see some of her more shapely curves coming in... which was definitely nice.

Tyler was starving... yet he still ate his food slowly. He really had been thin, all his muscle mass gone. Tyler had probably only weighed 120 pounds a couple months ago... over time he had grown in weight again, which was thankful. Even at his younger age he was full grown... and a full grown 120 pound man was something you needed to be worried about. After the weeks past he had regained strength, and was now almost back to normal. He had built back up his muscle and looked much... better now. His ribs didn't show anymore. He probably weighed more around 180 ... all these were very good signs and Tyler Knew it. He was happy he felt better... and happy Regan felt better, and looked better. He glanced at her with a sigh. "I guess I will try.." he said quietly..
