Kitchen Section
Moving away from the open area you find a tiny area set up as a kitchen, with a gap between to store the canned food acting as a corridor.

	Kara wandered into the kitchen section, looking for DP. She wasn't as much of an organiser as the others, and while she did care about India's well being she was damned if she was going to tell the others that. (Reply to this) (Thread)

	DP was eating some of the leftovers, leaning against the table as he watched Snap play with his ball. He smiled slightly, watching the dog pin the ball down, chew on it, then pop it free and chase it, only to bring it back and settle down to chew again. He glanced up at Kara as she came in, and frowned, just a little. "Everything all right?" (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"Just never was much of a caregiver." Kara said softly "Doesn't mean I don't actually care...Anyway, we're off to Newland Street West, student housing so lots of none perishable foods and a nice pub at each end, so let the vodka pour...Still in?" (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	dpyellowdog 2008-10-29 12:50 pm UTC (link)
	DP arched an eyebrow at her. "...you've already done a run today. And the sun is starting to set." He half smiled, wry, but tired. "How many runs do you do in a day?" He shook his head. "The Infected aren't stupid...just pissed off and mean. Are you sure you want to be running in and out of here every few hours like mice in a maze?" (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"That was supposed to be this weeks, we ended up with Dr Death instead, so...we need to go again." Kara arched an eyebrow back. "I'm sure Sal would rather be a dog than a mouse." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	dpyellowdog 2008-10-29 01:21 pm UTC (link)
	Both eyebrows went up. "Doctor Death?" (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Kara shrugged "I'm fairly sure that's not his professional title." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	dpyellowdog 2008-10-29 02:01 pm UTC (link)
	The smile slipped free, despite his best efforts. "Fairly sure," he agreed. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"So what do you make of us so far?" Kara leaned against a cabinet, making small talk 'til the call went up. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	He hesitated, then spoke into his plate, not looking at her. "...you're all very..." he hesitated again, then kicked the ball for Snap. "...female." He took a bite of his food, and chewed slowly. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Kara chuckled and glanced down at her chest. "These things always give me away." Her tone was completely even. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	dpyellowdog 2008-10-30 09:48 am UTC (link)
	DP turned scarlet and steadfastly refused to look at her. "That's not what I meant!" (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	kara_williamson 2008-10-30 09:57 am UTC (link)
	Kara laughed softly. "Sorry, automatic assumption, it's been a while...Seriously though...Us being a bunch of girls bothers you?" (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

Now he went white, flinching back a step and bumping into the table. "I didn't say that." Snap dropped his ball, and looked up, coming to his feet instantly and moving over to look up at his master, then sitting next to him, leaning against DP's leg as he looked at Kara. DP automatically reached down to rub ears, then dropped his plate for Snap to clear before turning away to pick up the pan of meat and carrots. Shoulders tense, and his eyes averted, he asked, very respectfully, "You want this?"

	Kara noted the reaction, and raised an eyebrow at it before replying. "No ta, just cover it over, it'll be right for a bit." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	dpyellowdog 2008-10-30 01:18 pm UTC (link)
	He nodded, and did so briskly, setting the pan aside and then beginning to clear up the rest of the mess with quick, efficient motions. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"What were you before all this...Military or what?" Kara asked (Reply to this) (Parent)

	dpyellowdog 2008-10-30 02:29 pm UTC (link)
	"Ah..," he glanced at her, nervously wiping the table off yet again. "...I was a shepherd. In Kelsae. On the border?" He glanced at her again. "...and I trained dogs. For herding and such." (Reply to this) (Thread)

	kara_williamson 2008-10-30 02:45 pm UTC (link)
	"Ah...Could have sworn you were military." Kara glanced out of the window. "It's getting too late to do the run now...I'm sure we can live 'til the morning." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	dpyellowdog 2008-10-30 02:48 pm UTC (link)
	He hesitated for a long moment, then, softly, added, "I did Search and Rescue." He glanced at her, then away. "...and my Da was Cherokee. I learned a lot from him." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"We've been living on our wits, trying to keep the red mist out of Sal." Kara shook her head "Poor woman." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	dpyellowdog 2008-10-30 03:20 pm UTC (link)
	He frowned at her, confused. "Red mist?" (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"She just gets angry, overfights sometimes" Kara shrugged "Something childhood related apparently." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	His frown deepened. "She's a berzerker." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"She's Sally" Kara said evenly "This was done to her...not her fault...And I'm glad she's on our side." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

Instantly, at the faintest hint of censure, the little color that had begun to come back into his face washed out again and his manner changed, his eyes dropping and averting, his shoulders coming up as he eased back a step, covering it by turning to pack the Sterno away, and re-arrange the dishes he'd cleaned. "I didn't mean anything by the comment." He picked up a stack of dishes and turned, looking for where to put it, avoiding her eyes. "There is nothing wrong with it -- some people are. Some people just... do things."

	dpyellowdog 2008-10-30 04:06 pm UTC (link)
	He flinched, breath catching. Voice tight, and just a bit too high, he asked, "...what do you mean?" Then, immediately, he turned away, shaking his head. "No, sorry, sorry, no -- I didn't mean that. I won't be rude. I won't -- I know how to treat a lady. I won't be rude." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

DP nearly dropped the plates -- then put them down fast enough to make a clatter and nearly crack the bottom-most plate and went into a full retreat, backing completely away from the table, grabbing Snap's ball and dropping it into the pack that never left his side as he went. Snap followed after, eyes bright and curious as he looked between his master and the woman in confusion.
