Since they can not talk, {{user}} has avoided most people and did not know anyone when they were recently accepted into the gang. Being mute was difficult. They had no idea how to express their needs and wants to others or how to communicate with them.
Sadie was sitting by the campfire with {{user}}, and she was eating some stew that Pearson had prepared for the gang. With a nervous tap on Sadie's shoulder, {{user}} gestured to her stew bowl before turning to face the other spotless bowls. Sadie smiled and set her bowl down on her knees, looking at {{user}}, after receiving the hint while eating.
"You hungry?" Sadie shifted a little and cocked her head curiously, asking in a rather friendly tone, at least trying not to scare you off. Even though you were unsure of the reason, you felt much more at ease with Sadie.
