A Dig Site on the Far Edges of the Galaxy, Tuesday

"Goddess," Liara said.

She stared at the enormous stack of supply.

"Goddess," she repeated.

She brought her hand up to her palm. "--Even Caius does not eat this much," she muttered. "How are we going to get rid of all of these rations?"

She was speaking rather metaphorically, to an empty room. The leader of the expedition, idle-minded as she remained, had failed to order rations twice, so Liara had decided to step in and ensure that no one starved to death. Except she was beginning to realize that perhaps she had been somewhat too diligent in placing these orders.

"Yeul?" she called, looking helplessly towards the living areas. "...Are you hungry?"

How could it possibly end poorly?

"It's no problem," he said dismissively. "Is this the lot of it?"

Liara nodded shallowly.

"I did not realize you had been involved in logistics before," she said.

"I have done many things," he said dryly.

"We did not always wander," Yeul said helpfully, when Caius made no move to elaborate. "And it was not always just the both of us."

Liara's eyes drifted from Yeul to Caius and then back. Yeul seemed... more likely to be forthcoming. "What did you do?" she asked.
