There were always little fires somewhere to find, everyone used them warm themselves. He could start one himself, but he was still a little rattled from the attack. Sasha wandered through the refugees, watching and listening and skirting past them looking for a fire or someplace that wasn't too crowded with others around it. He didn't want to be around too many.
Out on the grounds there were fewer people, more chances of fire. He recognized a face. He saw lots of faces doing what he did. But he didn't know names, only what they liked. And she had a fire. She wasn't friendly, he remembered that. She wasn't the flirty type trying to get free stuff. She barely even smiled.
Sasha shuffled over to her, his shard clutched in his hand. He hadn't taken any time to look at it. He didn't want to see the break. He didn't want to see the shattered mess. "Hi." Sasha muttered as he held out his free hand towards the flame and tried to get as close as he could to the flickering flame. His hand hovered close, he could feel the heat licking his skin, but not close enough to burn. "You look a little empty." He wondered if she remembered him, sometimes they did, most of the time they didn't. Depends on how often they found him.
