"Well, it's the least I could do," she said in response to his thanks. Her words had been soft and she felt just a bit odd, glad for his thanks but also like she hadn't deserved it. She watched him go back to his meal and decide it was because he had been philosophical again.
Walking over with her fruit she considered her options to opening it. If she had he sword she'd just cut it down the middle, but alas she lost that in the ocean and she would just have to deal with it. Using her knife could work, then she looked down at the sand and saw the bone saw. She sat down across from Aias and cut though the fleshy part of the frut to the nut under it. Shaking it she smiled, she could hear the liquid inside. It was still an odd fruit, not round like a coconut and the color was not like a palm nut. It was like a purple bottle now that she thought about it, or a squash even.
Unpeeled and braced against a rock she used the saw to cut at the smaller end. Once she had cut over half way through she tried to wiggle the rest off, but it was stubborn so she went back to sawing it until it was completely off, the liquid trying to escape until she tipped it up. "Well here's to hoping," she said as she poured some of the liquid into the palm of her hand and then took a careful taste.
