Rating: PG?
Status: Incomplete

Tonks, in spite of her cabin fever yesterday, had stayed in and pretty secluded. That, in and of itself, was ridiculously out of character for her. But things had caught up to the witch, things both emotional and physical, so she took the day to recharge her batteries. So to speak. But now Tonksy needed out. So out was what she was going to do. Grabbing the crutches that were beside her makeshift bed, the platinum blonde girl hobbled up and took a look around.

"Musta been more outta it than I thought," Muttered to herself as she noticed that there were a few things here and there that seemed fixed. But there was a shrug and she was heading out, trying to be quiet as not to disturb anybody else around. It took a minute to get used to the crutches, really, but pretty soon she was cruising around on them with a certain amount of ease.

Outside she went, all along the way noticing that things looked as they had before. Before the earthquake. Frowning slightly, she continued to the outside and stared at the building. It looked..fixed! Well, old and broken down but better than it had. "Cripes." Shaking her head, Tonks wasn't exactly going to complain or anything. Deciding to take a little crutched walk, maybe just around the gym or something, she started heading off. Right as Tonks was turning the corner, her grip on the right crutch slipped and fell to the ground.

"Fuck me," Groaned as she tried to balance on the good foot and get the crutch. Unfortunately, her balance being as it was (kind of non-existent), that broken foot came smashing down to the ground in a world of hurt and pain. Only, it didn't. And that had the Auror looking down at her feet curiously. Tentative step taken, a bit of her weight put on the foot that was supposed to be hurt. And nothing. Grinning just a little, Blondie took another step. Then another. Soon she was skipping and jumping in place. "Fuck me!" That much more cheerfully said.

"Mm. Some more than others. I've been here.." She thought about it for a moment. Then made a face. "Nearly a week, I think." Wasn't that distressing? She ruffled up her hair, a little worried about how she had forgotten that. But, then again, what were days in these sort of situations?

Distraction was nice. "Mississippi. That's in the states, yeah? I'm from London." As if her accent didn't give her away. Another bounce, and she was rocking on her heels. "If you were the one who patched me up, you did a great job. My foot was completely broken with the earthquake and all." She wanted to go running now. "Take a walk?" Head motioned in a direction with her invitation.

"A week?" He didn't realize that they'd kept the actors here that long. That seemed a bit excessive, though, something told the doctor that they were compensated fairly well for their time.

"The states?" The 'States' didn't typically exist where he came from. Actually, the only reason he'd said Mississippi was because it was easier than saying the 'old south region of North America.' Cities and towns kept their names, and the general feeling of the 'States' kept their feeling; but, as far as it being a country? Well, they were a global society now. A global society in a universe in a galaxy. Space travel had changed everyone's outlook on their little patches of land.

"Oh, I didn't have anything to do with that..."

He was already trailing in the direction she indicated. Might as well go for a walk. Maybe he needed to assist diploatically? That was usually something left to the people in the yellow shirts the way the mechanical manipulation was left to the people in the red ones; but, hey, go with the flow McCoy.

"Yeah, where you Yanks are from right?" She tilted her head, amused more than anything else at his reaction. "Or should I call it the good ol' U.S. of A?" Tonks, when genial, was a bit of a teaser. And she was in high spirits right now.

Hands in her pockets and a bounce to her step, she started walking around and having a look about. "They patched things up lovely." Mused more to herself than anything else, but then dark eyes was peering back at her company. "So. What were you doin' before they snagged you?"

Bones shrugged, shaking his head. the good ol' U.S. of A was something he'd read about in text books (he never could manage to figure out why they didn't just call the whole damned continent Mexico or Canada or the United States or just North America...)

"I was sleeping," he responded to her question. "I was in my quarters sleeping." He sounded mildly annoyed there. Bones kind of liked his sleep.

"What about you? When you're not here doing this, what keeps you occupied?"

"S'a kind of funny way to put it." Tonks mused on this curiously,as if it was funny that he said it that way. Like she had a choice. It was funny, really. Tonks bounced along again, still in higher spirits. She got a couple of steps ahead of Bones and turned around to walk backwards.

"I'm an Auror. Which is sorta a copper where I come from?" Explaining what an Auror was was easiest when she kept it to simple Muggle terms. The witch would have kept up the guise of simply being a police officer, but the laws of secrecy didn't seem to apply. Which was both interesting and scary, because that meant that the Ministry of Magic (or the other countries' equivalents) had no jurisdiction. More scary than interesting.
