Tails grabbed a piece of bread and placed a few slices of turkey and lettuce on it. He also grabbed for a water bottle. "I like it here" he said "it's peaceful and quiet." He took a bite of his sandwich, smiling inwardly at the difference in Crucible's expression.

"Yes," Crucible said, looking up at the patch of sky visible against the towering cliffs. "There's something here that just calms the soul. Here, you can be at peace. If only for a time." Crucible took a slice of cheese and began to nibble on it, staring around him with the same rapture he had when he'd first discovered this place.
Daman looked at Crucible's face and wondered what exactly had happened to him. The other mutants of the Order always seemed to assume he'd always been stoic and emotionless. But seeing him now, Daman wasn't so sure that was true. There was something innocent and a little sad in his expression, and those feelings touched Daman. He understood them well. Back when he was fourteen, he'd been alone and scared. He could see some of himself in the way Crucible hid behind a facade. Only, Daman always tried to be cheerful. Crucible tried to hide behind nothingness. But here, in this little niche, it seemed that he could be a little more himself, and Daman was glad of that.
