[ Like Beel, Xiao will also be gone for a while, but he will return later in the evening. He steps into the room quietly, not wanting to disturb anyone who may be asleep. He has brought back some fruit to share with the others.
It makes him a little sad, seeing Crea without his usual spunk. Xiao turns to look at him from over his shoulder, not knowing what to say.
He just...turns and holds out an apple towards him instead. ]
actually, the gesture hits crea quite close to heart as he smiles sadly at xiao, taking the fruit. it's been a while since he's seen an apple tree... ]
[ He makes note of that sad smile, and chalks it up to stress from their current predicament. Xiao doesn't make it a point to interact with others so much, but in times like these, it may be for the best to try. ]
Yes. I didn't think anyone else would bring back food, that's all.
[ He feels a little bad for not taking anything Crea brought back, but that's just Xiao being picky about his food more than anything. ]
I imagined it would be hard for people to have an appetite after what occurred, but food is important nevertheless.
Yeah, I got stuff that was easier to carry. A bunch of bags and cans are way more simple to transport than plates of food, but it's true that we should still try to eat well even in this situation.
[ he looks at the apple in his hands, taking a light bite of it. ]
Thanks, by the way. It's been a while since I've eaten an apple as nice as this.
[ sorry xiao! no hopping off outside of the murder island. ]
Truthfully speaking, I was more like the passenger in the time travel... my boss is the one that can perform the spell, and we ride along with him. Trust me, if I could do that, I would have tried to get us out of here the moment this began.

Was it your world or your circumstances that made it so?
[ The apple isn't anything special to him personally, so he wonders what Crea's life must've been like before coming here. ]

[ he shrugs. ]
But I did remember planting a few apple seeds with my friend, when we were younger. This reminded me of that.

Hopping between worlds...you were also a traveler, then. I know someone like you.
[ His voice sounds a little wistful towards the end, but – ]
...Would you be able to do that here?
