[Onni watches him take a couple of swigs of water, holding them in his mouth and then swallowing, nodding a little.]
Good.
[He adds two bottles of water to a pot and puts it over his little fire, adding some beef bullion and a bay leaf, then starts matter-of-factly cutting vegetables with a kitchen knife he picked up at a store. It doesn't handle as well as his own knife from home, but it'll do in the meantime. Dropping the vegetables into the water, he lets them boil a little. The stew won't be the best ever without searing the meat first, but it'll do for someone starving.]
You shouldn't? You mean you don't eat at home?
[He glances up at that, eyeing the not-mage with a curious expression.]

I'm Onni, by the way. What's your name?
