Lost and Found (Annora/Gold)

"You're...Dawn's roommate, yes?" he asked as they two of them sorted things into piles for the lost and found. He didn't recognize her from the Forest. That was always a strange feeling, seeing as he'd interacted with or influenced so many people in the past. He wondered who she'd been. Was she a princess? Perhaps a warrior? Or perhaps she was simply a peasant who'd had the misfortune of getting caught in the curse.

"So, er, what do you do?" he asked. Small talk was never his forte. He was a business man, no matter what business happened to be conducted. He preferred to get straight to the point, but most people considered that rude, he found, and he wasn't in the business of making any more enemies than he already had since he didn't have his magic.

Organizing Supplies || Marcy+Dalila

Marcy didn't know half the names of people in this town, and she assumed that no one really knew hers either. That's why she was so shocked when she was asked to contribute to help out. of course she wasn't called by name, but just being noticed made her secretly happy enough to participate.

Walking over to the table where everything was laid out in a jumbled mess, she sighed. Organizing wasn't her strongest suit. But, it couldn't be that hard. Put things that match together. Looking over she saw her partner. The girl who was supposed to help her in this mission of sorts. "Hey..Dalila, right?" she called, motioning her towards her. "Looks like we're partners."

to hell with it || Markus & James

James scanned the crowd, wondering--not for the first time since the storm started--why he was even here. Why he hadn't just stayed home and let fate take him where it may. Maybe because there was a damn stubborn part of him that was going to cling to life, no matter how crappy it got. Just because he refused to lie down and lose completely. He didn't know, and nor did he really care about the big philosophical question behind it. All he knew was that he was here--and they wanted him to help? Who in the hell were they kidding?! Couldn't they see he was busy drinking?! 

Of course, the flask was almost empty, and when that moment came, James didn't know what he was going to do. All he knew was that he was going to savor these last few sips of the burning rum inside that flask. Not search out this Markus character--a guy he only knew by reputation, really--and wander around looking for some crap. 

The others can do it themselves, he thought, taking another swig as he leant back against the wall, letting his eyes fall closed for a brief moment as he savored it.

Sorting it out || Thackery + Dawn

After they'd played around ten to fifteen games of tic tac toe, Dawn was happy to have something assigned to them to do. Not that she didn't love playing, she just needed to do something helpful to distract herself from the fact that Annora still hadn't showed up. "You ready?" She looked over at Thackery with a warm smile, getting up from where they were seated on the floor of the gym. Their job seemed easy enough; rationing, sorting through food and things, and organizing them was simple for Dawn. She was glad Thackery was her partner. They were friends, even though they didn't agree on how adorable cats were.

First Aid || Ruby + Odessa

When Graham paired her up with Odessa, the last person she wanted to run into, Ruby felt sick. Truthfully, she'd been avoiding her friend since her one night stand with Markus, a mistake Ruby had been trying to forget. It was easier said than done, though; no matter how easy it was for her in the past, she couldn't get this hookup out of her head. Sure, a drunk, frisky Ruby had slept with her fair share of men; from the poor guy who just got dumped to the asshole who had a girlfriend she didn't know about until the next day, she'd experienced it all. But this time, she'd crossed the line. She was guilty. She knew that. She felt it. But as she and Odessa made their way into the school and to the nurse's office, Ruby tried to put on a smile. What was she supposed to do? She screwed up, but how the hell was she supposed to fix what she did? What was done couldn't be undone and even if she could do something, this was not the time nor the place to make up for it. 

"So, uhm, some storm, huh?" She turned to Odessa, realizing she'd been quiet this whole time. "Sucks being inside. I'd rather run out in the rain, it washes away everything..."
