Oh. Uh, just about a month exactly. You came in with the latest group, then? You settling in OK?
[Steve takes her various comments to mean she'd like a wheat bun, so he digs around in his pack for a couple of buns and holds one out to her.]
They're... kinda buttery already? I think they were sprayed with PAM or something. [Clint had introduced him to the concept of PAM. He found the concept rather disgusting, but he has to admit that the buttery flavor is very satisfying when he's short on calories.] They're cold, not much I can do about that, but otherwise it's pretty decent bread.
