Singular. Separate.

Let's take that twig and break it into halves. You keep one half, and I shall keep one. Let's rub them against each other and rub longer. So that, one day, they shall catch fire. Then let's each of us, take the twigs to our mouths and swallow the flames. In a gulp.
We had had a twig. To share. Now we have fires in our stomachs. Singular. Separate.
