Victoria being quiet the entire trip into the forest did not make it easier. Her eyes darted around the place the entire time, as if she was expecting an ambush. Difficult to even try and flirt with a woman who hid discomfort under a surface of neutrality. She did answer when spoken to though.
"So, why did you want to join us?" John asked.

"Go easy on John, he's always questioning stuff," Rave chimed in.
"He won't always get answers that he likes though." For some reason, she put emphasis on the 'always'. Quickly, she averted her gaze, scanning the forest for the umptieth time.
