"No, no makeup shenanigans, though I don't think our parents had any for them to use." Ochre undoes his pack and sets it by his seat. "We weren't that odd a family within the clan though. It started with a group of rock farmers about... 1200 years ago. Eventually a few of the members married pegasi, who got involved in transportation, while others married unicorns who worked on refining some of the rocks for metals, or making tools." Ochre chuckles. "A phrase we have in our clan is 'Dust has a little bit of everything.'" He licks his lips, and looks around. "Need an extra hoof to help with the cooking?"

Midnight star just stayed silent,observant.She wants to see what their personalitys are before she talks to them, so she doesn't get used. Being used is a terrible feeling. Just then the tent fell on her. She was good at magic, not construction."Oh sunbutt."

Wind Singer thanked the pony for her assistance, and begun to collect the dismantled tent of the ground. To try and distract herself from the embarrassment of the situation she started up some conversation. 

"My name is Wind Singer. What's yours?"

Rocksteady tilted his head side to side periodically then nodded with a smile. "Sure, I could use the help. It seems everypony else might be a bit busy at the moment. So, do you know anything about cooking, my young friend?" as Rock was talking he was fishing through his bag again in order to get out a few things to cook with. Pots, pans, and a couple of enchanted boxes that was given to him by Astral, a friend of his who lived in the Canterlot Mountains. These boxes, although large in size, can hold just about anything in them and was temperature controlled as well. One of the boxes held all of the vegetables then the others all the spices and herbs he liked to use. The box with the vegetables seemed to be a lot chilled in order to keep the contents fresh and good to eat while the other was slightly warm since it attuned itself to the room temperature of Rock's house and it was the right conditions to keep the herbs and spices at their flavors as he did grow most of these plants and grinded them up into powder or tiny pieces. He put the boxes aside then started to set everything as fast as he could, he was hungry and didn't really eat anything on the way to this location.

"Finally!"Midnight thought"The tent isn't falling on me!" She then turned to her saddle bags and dug around"...no, not in here..maybe in the other one." She said.not realizing she was thinking out loud. After a little digging Midnight Star pulled out her telescope and began to set it up to stargaze after supper.

"I mostly dealt with making army food edible, so I know a few recipes by mixing rations together with whatever herbs and we would find where we camped." Ochre smiled. "And I don't think I've burned any meals in years." He began inspecting the herbs and spices, muttering to himself, "Basil, thyme, mint, oregano, peppercorn, radish, cayenne..." He looked back to Rocksteady. "You really have an entire spice rack here, don't you?"
