Finn's expression hardens for a moment. It shouldn't have taken firing the Starkiller to do that. "I guess most people don't believe in a threat they don't see face-to-face. Glad someone's here to fight against them."
Which...he's glad to count himself among them, now. He'd wanted to run away, had been ready to do just that and then they took Rey. And now? He's still scared of them, sometimes, and it affects his sleep, but doing something is better than doing nothing.
But his rising tension lowers as Poe lists against him. Poe's got great reason to know that it's safe here, and if he feels safe, Finn can feel safe. "Hey, none of that till after you shower, unless you want to be washing your sheets, too."
Then he raises his voice to get back into the conversation. "Roots? Do those even count as food? Or is Nimaha one of those places with the little poison rats that'll strangle you if you try to eat them?" Scavenging protocol is to go for processed food first, then meat, then plants; if Poe was eating roots, the meat should have been impossible to eat, right?
