Rating: PG?

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.

"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.
