[font=trebuchet ms]Killua's voice ringing out elicited a full-body twitch from Straw, though she was somewhat proud of herself for not jumping in fright. Emphasis on somewhat. She'd gotten used to the surprise appearances, at least. Turning her head to glance at him and the bag of marshmallows that had spontaneously materialized in his paw, she blinked. Marshmallows were really tasty when toasted, that was true.
When Killua gave her the bag, she took out a marshmallow and stuck it on the end of a spare stick, then cautiously held the stick between her paws over the fire. Having pseudo-thumbs was a blessing she really ought to appreciate more. Ly would've lectured her for "being too good to hold the stick in your mouth like the rest of us," but it wasn't like Ly never used her thumbs. They were too useful not to take advantage of.
"Doing most of the work" was an exaggeration. "Not really," she commented, turning the stick slightly to expose the other half of the marshmallow to flames. She didn't like them burnt to ash like Quince did, but a nice brown with tinges of black was best. "Doing as I'm asked. Lilja, Kade, Tena- they're doing things too."
