Mallory shivered. Gross. She thought looking at the gore- imagining herself as if she would ever have to do... that. She adverted her eyes.
"Well, thanks- I guess, for you know." She fought the urge not to stare.

The night chill was enough to calm and remind her that there still was a pressing matter at hand. It was nighttime, the police were out searching- and there still was the threat of the unknown, which could come to finish off what ever they were trying to do at any time.

She looked to Hiroto, "How about we save the meal for another day- hadn't you mentioned before that there was someone we could go and rest for now?" She tried, not wanting to sound as urgent as she felt.
Truth was, though, Mallory was only human- she needed to sleep once and day- and eat as well. She wasn't as adaptable as she would have liked to of claimed.
