Midnight sighed, and shook her head. "My entire family was there, and we don't have any friends outside that I could trust to help me out. I was only looking for a bit of company, is all..." she trailed off, glancing up at the blue lights. Probably something the human would understand; she had no idea what the light was, or anything. She leaned against a tree nearby. "...Well, that's only partly true. I did come looking for company...but I'm too used to taking care of people back home; I know I need something to make me feel at least a little useful..." She paused, looking up from the ground at him. "I don't think you're the only one stressed; I was in the area where those strange creatures attacked the camp...and I was trying to help some of the people there...but that last explosion was too big; I had to retreat."
