It wasn't that he was avoiding her. It was that he was trying to figure out what to say. And trying to keep himself avoiding Seth to avoid the inevitable biting off of heads for bringing this shit into his place. The fact that the biting off of heads might have ended up being literal once upon a time and long ago only made it more imperative that he avoid Seth.
He was also trying to figure out whether she would require more explanation for what she had seen and heard, or more explanation for the fact that he had briefly regressed to a more simple time when his teeth and even his mouth had been somewhat longer than they were now, and when biting other people's throats out was a more commonplace thing to do. At least, for him and Seth. More for Seth than him. But that was then and this was now and how the hell was he going to explain this to her?
It was a lot harder to avoid her when he couldn't hide down in the morgue, or at least it had seemed that way. He had been deemed fit to go home, at least physically, but Phil and Dr Mallard had pointed out (probably rightly) that he'd only hurt himself further if he did, and so he was constrained to the hospital for 24 hours For Observation.
Well, and so, after a less than enlightening talk with Galen, he figured he might as well go and observe Caitlin for a while. Also known as lurking. |

Who: Seth and Caitlin (and Paul?)
Where: GWU Hospital
When: Sometime during the day after Bastet talks to Seth about Star
Seth was still out for blood. But he was...not quite so far gone as he might have been. Thanks to Bastet. The difficulty in finding his particular target was simply that he knew the hospital staff was unlikely to just tell him where a Senator was being treated. Nor could he spend too much time just walking around and looking in on people. One: he'd get bored really quickly and end up taking it out on someone in his path. Two: he'd be noticed and likely someone would try to stop him. That wouldn't end well on either side.
These weren't things Seth was actively thinking about, they were just things he knew. Of course, something else that he knew was this hospital. He'd been to it often enough. So he had a reasonably good idea of where to find the good senator. Only...on the way there he caught a familiar scent. Anubis. Not that that was a surprise but...
...well, it was just really hard for Seth to resist antagonizing the jackal.
Imagine his surprise when he turns around and instead sees Caitlin. |

Who: Paul and whoever
Where: GWU-Hospital
When: New Years' Eve!
The Egyptian calendar ran along a different time than the current; that said, Paul made the best of working New Years' Eve at the hospital by making it festive for everyone whether they liked it or not. Including the corpses. Dr. Mallard informed the post-health patients that they couldn't have any champagne, Paul decorated them with hats and tiaras, and Phil proclaimed them both crazy. Not that he had much room to talk.
In between working he made sure to bounce upstairs and make sure that everyone who had to work (or suffer in the ER) was at least somewhat enjoying themselves. No one could really have champagne, because they were on duty or because they were on medication, but he'd brought several bottles of sparkling apple juice, which did a reasonable job of pretending.
He even brought in a little portable TV that a certain person, if she were present, might remember from medical school, so that people could watch the ball drop if they wanted. |
