"It is like finding a blooming rose among the thicket of thorns"

Things was finally looking up Samantha finally knew when OniThreash would be on, her guild was happy with the new expansion of the alliance, and She would take those that wanted to be healers and taught them everything that WhitehairedBandit and Orangetomcat taught her.

Work was better somehow the news got leaked about social services paying them a visit and that she was given off that when she got to work, there were hugs, jokes but mainly food, her coworkers had found out Samantha's favorite foods and made them.

There was tripe stew and rice, chicken hearts in sauce with buns and chili beef liver with a stiff porridge called in the South African tongue Putu pap, along all this there was also chicken feet, faces and many other traditional foods, Samantha found herself in heaven as breakfast was a fast one with chicken heart in sauce on a bun. Whatever was left was given to the night shift and even with Samantha taking home for her and her kids, management, the armory and the drivers having their fill and taken with there was more than enough for nightshift.

Traditions was big as it is everywhere that Samantha knew of and she also knew that everywhere they had their own weird foods called delicacies but even though the Scottish has haggis and Asian had frog legs she was proud as a white woman that she could eat what many would frown on or utterly refuse but never would Samantha touch frogs, ever, haggis on the other hand if she could ever get her hands on the ingredients she would try it.

Coming home was a happy affair, her Nephew Luke was going to be over for the weekend, her children have already been fetched by her sister's parents and her adoptive mother was going to be phoning her today as well, but most importantly, ever since OniTreash claimed her to be his "cute little healer" they both took the dive and added each other on direct messaging so they could talk.

The talks was amazing and they never ran out of something to say to each other and it was different as well, normally Samantha would a flirt whether on stream, this was a side to her that everyone saw, it was honest and fun they knew her as her name suggested little black fox, in comms she was again a fun innocent and playful but everyone that she played with knew her secret, their fragile friends was a healer yes but fragile no, she could and would join the fight in killing and would get even meaner if she died, no one wanted to see her get revenge because normally no one survived, but privately she was the opposite, her optimism shone through as she spoke, she was sweet and caring, playful but in an innocent kind of way and open, Samantha was too open even with her friends list.

Matthew learned of this the first day he added her to a private chat and woke up to her immediately replying to his greeting, he smiled when he heard that her day was going well and as she explained the food that her coworkers prepared for them all, he wasn't outspoken, silence for him was enough but somehow she pulled him and it was not the flirting, he groaned as he got up to get his food quickly.

He had been single for three years and it had not bothered him until now, he had known about Samantha long before playing together, most the time staying quiet and just watching as the chat in his friend's stream went on but for some reason her name caught his eye, and that reason was food to be pacific it was the burgers she was making that day that had him speak out more.

It wasn't the fact that every time she was in an hour or two later Orangetomcat would come on and greet her first and her excitement as she typed "kitty" ignoring everyone else and just speaking to him and their friend nor was it when she weakly defended herself when their friend teased her on the fact that it seemed that her and the 'kitty' was dating! No, it was about the burgers and only the burgers. Two months Matthew set his alarm to patchworkpiper's stream so that he would be there and watch, he learned of her talents and even went as far as asking RoyalPetal who knew more than all their friends together and gladly told him.
