Fishing Expedition

by **Theresa McMasters** » Thu Jan 24, 2013 10:56 am

Word had spread fast that the rescue mission had returned and so Theresa checked the dorms first to see if Kay had headed there. Being impatient and not finding her within around thirty seconds, Theresa was in the common room and getting ready to head towards the medical center.

Which was when Kay tried her best to sneak in. Dirty hoodie pulled over her head she doesn't even notice Theresa sitting there at first.

Theresa, however, noticed her. After taking a good look to make sure she wasn't about to be an absolute fool of herself, she jumped up and ran to hug Kay. "You're back! Brigid and I were so worried."

by **Kay Haddock** » Thu Jan 24, 2013 12:01 pm

"Resa!" she gets out before the hug knocks the air out of her a little.

"I-I'm fine."

by **Theresa McMasters** » Thu Jan 24, 2013 12:17 pm

"You're fine? Is that why you're... you know what, nevermind that. I'm just happy you're back." Theresa gave her another hug.

by **Kay Haddock** » Thu Jan 24, 2013 12:21 pm

"It... it was really just like a camping trip. T-totally fine. Just walked through a forest a bit..." she mumbles, wincing a bit at the hug.

Theresa frowned at the wince, "I may not be the sharpest knife in the drawer, but I can tell when something's wrong. Come on, let's get you a hot shower and then you can hide in my room."

by **Kay Haddock** » Thu Jan 24, 2013 12:36 pm

"Okay..." she says, following Theresa. "And thanks." she adds after a moment.

by **Theresa McMasters** » Thu Jan 24, 2013 12:45 pm

Theresa gave her a huge smile, "It's what I'm here for." After swinging past Theresa's room to grab what Theresa described as "the best smelling shampoo you will ever use", Theresa waited outside while Kay washed up. "You want me to throw these clothes in the wash?"

by **Kay Haddock** » Thu Jan 24, 2013 12:51 pm

After spending what seems like an eternity in the shower Kay comes out, wrapped up in a bathrobe. With the lack of a hood it'd be obvious that the gills on her neck look much more prominent than they used to.

"Y-yeah. Or possibly the trash." she tries to joke.

by **Theresa McMasters** » Thu Jan 24, 2013 12:56 pm

Theresa picked them up and looked at them, "Yeah, trash might be wise, but we can try to save them." Her gaze obviously passed over the gills, but she just turned, "So you go chill in my room and I'll be back in a minute. Make yourself comfortable."

by **Kay Haddock** » Thu Jan 24, 2013 1:06 pm

She nods and does just that, sitting down on the couch and pulling her legs up to her chest under the robe.

by **Theresa McMasters** » Thu Jan 24, 2013 2:01 pm

After a bit, Theresa came back and rummaged in her desk for a moment, pulling out a bag of tiny chocolate bars and some things that looked suspiciously like Pixy Stix. She dropped down on the couch beside Kay and offered her the bag. "Care for a cure-all?"

by **Kay Haddock** » Thu Jan 24, 2013 2:13 pm

"Oh god, yes!" she says, tearing into one of the candy bars. "I'm starved..."

by **Theresa McMasters** » Thu Jan 24, 2013 2:17 pm

"This should hold you over until you feel like going to get some proper food," Theresa said, dropping the bag between them and contemplating the Pixy Stix.

by **Kay Haddock** » Thu Jan 24, 2013 2:20 pm

"I think I'm gonna be a vegetarian for a while. Couple years should do."

by **Theresa McMasters** » Thu Jan 24, 2013 2:24 pm

"I'm sure there's a story behind that decision, but you can tell it when you're ready, if you ever are."

by **Brigid Plunder** » Thu Jan 24, 2013 2:29 pm

There was a knock at the door.

"Theresa, I'm going to check at the medical center to see how Kay's doing. You want to come along?"

by **Theresa McMasters** » Thu Jan 24, 2013 2:31 pm

Theresa looked at Kay to see if Kay wanted her to invite Brigid in.

by **Kay Haddock** » Thu Jan 24, 2013 2:34 pm

"I'm in here." she calls out to Brigid.

by **Brigid Plunder** » Thu Jan 24, 2013 2:35 pm

Brigid opened the door, a broad smile on her face.

"Oh my god, they let you out already?"

by **Kay Haddock** » Thu Jan 24, 2013 2:38 pm

"Nothing wrong with us, I guess. No one's really hurt."

by **Theresa McMasters** » Thu Jan 24, 2013 2:42 pm

"I found her coming into the dorms, brought her up here and got her washed up," Theresa said. "Now we're just snacking."

by **Brigid Plunder** » Thu Jan 24, 2013 2:42 pm

"I'm so glad you're okay. We were worried sick!"

by **Kay Haddock** » Thu Jan 24, 2013 2:48 pm

"Sorry..."

by **Theresa McMasters** » Thu Jan 24, 2013 2:53 pm

"Nothing to be sorry about," Theresa said to Kay, tossing a tiny candy bar at Brigid.

by **Brigid Plunder** » Thu Jan 24, 2013 2:58 pm

"Yeah," she said as she caught it deftly, "this totally wasn't your fault."

by **Kay Haddock** » Thu Jan 24, 2013 3:03 pm

"Well no but... I dunno... I'm not even sure why he dragged me there. Maybe as a snack for one of the others..."

by **Theresa McMasters** » Thu Jan 24, 2013 3:10 pm

"Probably for the best not to dwell on that," Theresa commented, tearing the top off one of the Pixy Stix and tilting some of the contents into her mouth.

by **Brigid Plunder** » Thu Jan 24, 2013 3:12 pm

"They didn't really tell us much about what was going on."

by **Kay Haddock** » Thu Jan 24, 2013 3:35 pm

"Some crazy guy put us into cages and there was this weird fog. We were let out but it was jsut forest and then everyone went nuts... Almost everyone. Even our power tutor and Miss Weaver... Chloe killed some deer or something and, like, ate a chunk of it..." she babbles.

by **Theresa McMasters** » Thu Jan 24, 2013 3:36 pm

"Oh, hun," Theresa said quietly, slipping an arm around Kay protectively.

by **Brigid Plunder** » Thu Jan 24, 2013 3:37 pm

"That's... that's horrible! You're sure you're okay?"

by **Kay Haddock** » Thu Jan 24, 2013 3:45 pm

"Yeah... Chloe and me ran away mostly and I hid in a river... Some of the people started getting weird." she says awkwardly. "Miss Weaver was huge and on all fours when they knocked her out..."

by **Theresa McMasters** » Thu Jan 24, 2013 4:00 pm

"Some people deserve a big ol' lightnin' strike, right on their head. Just wish I could give it to them," Theresa said. "Did they catch the bastard?"

by **Kay Haddock** » Thu Jan 24, 2013 4:03 pm

"I don't think so. He disappeared or something. Someone said he might be dead but no one really seemed to believe that."

by **Brigid Plunder** » Thu Jan 24, 2013 4:04 pm

"Yeah, that's... kind of a supervillainy thing."

by **Kay Haddock** » Thu Jan 24, 2013 4:50 pm

"So I dunno..." she says, munching on the candy bar. "I'm just glad no one really came after me."

by **Theresa McMasters** » Thu Jan 24, 2013 6:40 pm

"Well, now you're hear and safe, and apparently going vegetarian," Theresa teased.

by **Brigid Plunder** » Thu Jan 24, 2013 6:43 pm

"Probably never really hunted before, yeah?"
