Roland was sure he heard the fear in Alexi's voice, or maybe he was imagining it. The idea of freezing to death was not something he wanted though, so he supposed they must take the chance, risky as it was. He watched in silence as the meal was placed before him, yet he felt no hunger, his stomach was still in knots from the choice he had made, the way his entire life had changed in the last few hours.

"It's okay, I'm not very hungry..." Roland mumbled as he picked at the fish on his plate, shuffling it around instead of eating. Despite how thin he had grown he still found himself unable to eat much, worry driving him near starvation over the past few weeks as the tension grew among the humans and mutants. He just didn't understand the divide, why the mutants were treated so, he wanted to ask Alexi, but he hated to ruin the good mood they were currently in.
