"I barely helped," Thomas said, shaking his head. He'd mostly stood there and handed people things they asked for because he didn't trust himself to be responsible for cooking anything. He'd tried to stay out of the way and when things got too crowded, he'd retreated from the kitchen so no one stepped on him or tripped over him.

"I'd appreciate that," he said gratefully, nodding. Even the smallest amount of leftovers could be made to last for a week or so when it came to Thomas. He liked to ration things as best he could, never eating too much and always saving some for the next day. He'd managed to drop some of the habits from the Scorch but that was one he held to steadfastly. If food somehow dried up, he wanted to be prepared.
