Ray nodded and shifted slightly, letting both of his feet clomp back down onto the ground as he sighed heavily, tilting his head back and looking up at the dusty colored sky. It had been like that for a while now, as if a sandstorm would come through any moment, but it never did - while they didn't know exactly where they were geographically anymore, Ray was certain they weren't in a place where sandstorms were common, they would have found out by now if they were.

"I like working at my own pace, and people understand that... I guess." he said quietly, hands slowly rubbing and massaging up and down his thighs "Still though, the offer still stands... If you need any equipment worked on..." he shrugged and sighed quietly - was he pushing too hard? He wanted to spent time with Riley, but he just didn't know how to *ask* without sounding like a total dork. Or maybe even a jerk, he had been called that a few times while they were vaulted, but he hadn't meant to be a jerk, it just sometimes happened.

He cleared his throat awkwardly and turned his head to see Riley glaring at the fire "Don't glare at the fire, it might attack you!" he teased, smirking a little and letting some of his rather straight and white teeth show "And if you get attacked by the fire, just who do you think would have to save ya? Me, that's right, and I don't know the first thing about being a doctor... Not like you, Riley."
