Despite everything else that was going on at the moment--which was a considerable list that included attempted murder, jailbreak, and dramatic, life-changing conspiracy reveals--Ren still managed to turn red at the word "sweetheart." Her first instinct was to deck him. That was obviously right out, for multiple reasons. Instinct two was to burst into tears, which she would ALSO not be doing. Instinct three was very strong, but it involved things he was in no condition to be doing. She was at a loss.
She watched him struggle to take a bite, possibly misinterpreting why it was difficult. "When you can eat more," she decided, "I'll jus' feed you." It was just practical, and had nothing to do with ANY romantic fantasies she'd EVER had while she was supposed to be repairing a lug nut.
She watched his expression carefully as he ate.
He was a bad liar, but sweet.
"For my first time, I guess," she said, refusing not to take the compliment. It was hard won, and she liked being complimented. "Y'give good instructions." This wasn't quite as much of a stretch as his compliment had been. She couldn't expect a detailed omelette recipe from a man with a hole in his chest.
Regardless of her opinions of the flavors and textures of her omelette, she finished all of it, including chunks of essentially raw vegetables. Surprising no one, she was in no mood to waste food.
Having eaten, however, she was becoming aware of how exhausted she was. She'd had a long, horrible day. There would be no sleeping for her, however. She had a stay up to watch Gareth. Hopefully at some point he'd fall asleep. Then she could have a rat sit very close and make sure he was still breathing. Still. He didn't seem like he was in... As much pain? Maybe he was in a better mood? She set the plate aside and curled up next to him again.
"I think at some point," she told him. "I'm gonna hafta go outside. Nighthoof kicked the stable door down and the snow is startin' to drift. Can y'think of a list of things I might need t'do out there? I only wanna have to do this once for now. I don't like leavin' you."
