"Mom, we're back!" Jasper yelled as he came into the house with Baas behind him.
"I'm in the kitchen," Mae shouted back.
Ven was busy stirring the stew over the fire, while she laid out the bowls and counted the spoons, making sure there was enough for everyone, including Pyde who was resting out on the patio.
Making his way into the kitchen, Jasper was quick to hug Mae before moving up beside Ven and taking a deep sniff of the pot.
"That smells really good," he remarked as he hugged Ven.
"I should hope so," Ven replied, "I spent an entire day smoking the antufet for this."
"Sometimes I think you go too far for our enjoyment, Ven," Baas commented, being the last one to join the conversation as he took the time to remove his boots at the door.
"Nonsense. I do this for my own enjoyment. You have nothing to do with it."
