by **Dana Lawrence** » Fri Jun 08, 2012 8:49 pm

Dana got some lunch and took a seat at a table. She ate slowly and carefully, watching people from behind her sunglasses.

Tommy was in the dessert line, his wizard hat bobbing as he weighed the merits of the green and red jello.

Dana stared at Thomas.

It was unsettling. Or adorable. It depends on how you feel about Dana, I guess.

Finally deciding to partake of the green flavor, he picked it up and, seeing Dana, walked over with his tray.

"Hey, Dana. nice day?" he asked, smiling.

by **Dana Lawrence** » Fri Jun 08, 2012 9:16 pm

"It has been productive," Dana says, "Training and studying are going well."

"How are you?"

by **Thomas Bowen** » Fri Jun 08, 2012 9:28 pm

"Eh, doing ok. Survived the school camping trip, anyway."

He took a seat.

by **Dana Lawrence** » Fri Jun 08, 2012 9:30 pm

"I am sorry I could not go," Dana says, "Did you have fun?"

by **Thomas Bowen** » Fri Jun 08, 2012 9:34 pm

"Yeah, I did.. More then I thought I would! We did a lot of regular camping stuff, but it was nice, just doing it together with new people."

He smiled, taking a bite of his sandwich.

"The girls snuck away a few nights to go into the woods, which was a little wierd. But that was it."

"They should be more careful," Dana says, "The last time there was a camping trip at the college, there was reports of an outbreak of lycanthropy afterwards."

by **Thomas Bowen** » Fri Jun 08, 2012 9:45 pm

Tommy gave a funny look.

"Real, honest to god werewolves? Not just mutant wolf ferals?"

by **Dana Lawrence** » Fri Jun 08, 2012 9:51 pm

"Yes," Dana says, "There was curiously never any real explanation for their origin. Most of the people were cured, I believe one remains infected and currently attends the university."

by **Thomas Bowen** » Fri Jun 08, 2012 9:55 pm

"England is weird."

by **Dana Lawrence** » Fri Jun 08, 2012 9:58 pm

"I would have thought you would be excited at mystical creatures being encountered there."

by **Thomas Bowen** » Fri Jun 08, 2012 10:03 pm

"I guess I should be, given the hat." he said, smiling.

"I don't know.. Werewolves just seem.. Creepy. North American mystical stuff is way cooler."

by **Dana Lawrence** » Fri Jun 08, 2012 10:05 pm

"They are people who are also wolves," Dana says, "I do not see what is creepy about them."

by **Thomas Bowen** » Fri Jun 08, 2012 10:09 pm

"I guess it's the growling. And the biting. And the drooling. Creepy."

by **Dana Lawrence** » Fri Jun 08, 2012 10:11 pm

"Are you scared of dogs as well?"

by **Thomas Bowen** » Fri Jun 08, 2012 10:12 pm

"... No?" he replied a little defensively. Dogs did scare him. A little.

by **Dana Lawrence** » Fri Jun 08, 2012 10:14 pm

Dana gave him a look like she doesn't believe him.

by **Thomas Bowen** » Fri Jun 08, 2012 10:20 pm

"Okay, okay. Dogs are a bit scary! I admit it." he said, blushing.

by **Dana Lawrence** » Fri Jun 08, 2012 10:21 pm

"You should not lie," Dana says, "Being afraid of things is natural and human."

by **Thomas Bowen** » Fri Jun 08, 2012 10:23 pm

"It's just.. A little embarrassing." he said.

"Everyone else seems to like dogs just fine."

by **Dana Lawrence** » Fri Jun 08, 2012 10:28 pm

"There are 35 fatal dog attacks per year in the United States."

by **Thomas Bowen** » Fri Jun 08, 2012 10:34 pm

"So I'm right, then?" he asked, smirking.

by **Dana Lawrence** » Fri Jun 08, 2012 10:46 pm

"Anything can kill you, under the right circumstances," Dana says, "It is better to be prepared then scared."

by **Thomas Bowen** » Fri Jun 08, 2012 10:49 pm

"That's good advice," Tommy agreed.

"It's tough to not be scared of things, though."

by **Dana Lawrence** » Fri Jun 08, 2012 10:54 pm

"For normal people, I suppose it is," Dana agrees.

by **Thomas Bowen** » Fri Jun 08, 2012 11:00 pm

"We can't all be superbrains, it's true." he said, smiling affectionately.

by **Dana Lawrence** » Fri Jun 08, 2012 11:02 pm

"I think most of you would find that very fortunate," Dana says.

by **Thomas Bowen** » Fri Jun 08, 2012 11:08 pm

Tommy nodded, reminded of the heavy cost to Dana's gift.

"I didn't mean anything by it. Sorry."

by **Dana Lawrence** » Fri Jun 08, 2012 11:24 pm

"Why? You are fine," Dana says, "It does not bother me at all."

"Do i need to apologize to you because you are going to die someday?"

by **Thomas Bowen** » Fri Jun 08, 2012 11:29 pm

"no, I guess not. I'm just teying to be mindful and tactful.. I guess there's no need here."

by **Dana Lawrence** » Fri Jun 08, 2012 11:36 pm

"No need at all," Dana says, "Don't waste your time being stupid. It is annoying."

by **Thomas Bowen** » Fri Jun 08, 2012 11:55 pm

"I'll try not to be..." he replied, a little hurt.

by **Dana Lawrence** » Fri Jun 08, 2012 11:58 pm

"Good," Dana said, completely oblivious.

by **Thomas Bowen** » Sat Jun 09, 2012 8:14 pm

"So.. What have you been up to?" he asked, looking to change the subject.

by **Dana Lawrence** » Sat Jun 09, 2012 8:18 pm

"Training," Dana says.

by **Thomas Bowen** » Sat Jun 09, 2012 8:42 pm

"Oh? WhAt are you focusing on?"

by **Dana Lawrence** » Sat Jun 09, 2012 8:43 pm

"Agility, flexibility, muscular strength and endurance, and forensic skills," Dana says.

by **Thomas Bowen** » Sat Jun 09, 2012 9:07 pm

"Wow.. That's pretty impressive. Way beyond what I can do."
