((Heh, I know the feeling. I've got a couple of assignments but they're not due tomorrow, so might as well put them off ^.^'' Good grief, that's such a dangerous mindset. Time skip for Kennedy and Lindy, you mean?))

Ben lowered his hands immediately, his lips pursing into a thin line and his brows raising in question. The last thing he wanted was a fight but he'd also been conditioned never to back down from one. He could try and negotiate but he was almost certain Ari wouldn't listen. Turning to meet Ari, he stepped forward almost bracing for an impact. Just as he opened his mouth to say something, Ramona stepped in, putting herself between the two of them. Ducking his head, he angled back, flexing his wings. Nodding in curt acknowledgement, he looked up again. "We just need a place to rest is all," he mumbled. "Maybe we can clear out one of the back rooms. One with an actual roof."

Ari felt a prickle of unease, a feeling that he would've been stuck in an actual fight had Ramona not stepped in. Which he totally would've participated in, but would've not only hated but would've totally and completely lost. "Alright then, are you saying we should all go together, the nice friendly group we've got here? Stick together and all that stuff?"

Lindy nodded, slightly relieved that he agreed to let her stay. She couldn't imagine the anxiety piling up in her chest if she couldn't offer assistance. "Okay, sounds good," she said. She turned towards the direction the sleeve was pointing and squinted. It looked like a good trek, though likely wouldn't take long - then again she was probably not the best judge for distance and time. She wondered if they should have left a time warning behind with the others - If we don't come back in thirty minutes we might be goners. "Looks like our best bet," she agreed. "Lead on, I'll drop back when we get close enough for me to hear you yell." - - -
"Be honest, how good do I look right now?" Ben chuckled softly, straightening the sleeves to a rather large, gray hoodie. The thing practically engulfed his small frame, his hands barely through the armholes. He raised them, waving the sleeves and watching as they danced around. His chuckle started small and, in an effort to quiet it, he started wheezing. "Ah, this is fantastic. We've proper clothes now." He smiled down at his worn jeans and ratty looking shoes. Everything felt so grimy and tethered but he couldn't help but fall in love with them.
The home they'd stolen it from was a small shack. Collapsed on one side but, surprisingly enough, still livable it seemed. Someone had made their home here. There were others around it, all occupied, and a large square of planted soil at the center of them. Nothing had grown from it but he admired their effort. It had surprised him tremendously seeing their first hint of civilization outside of the facility. He hadn't expected it to be so bad and almost felt guilty stealing what little they had. He tried making light of the situation, but it still bothered him. He could only hope the city would be better.

It bothered her. It squeezed through her like a snake and tightened around her entrails, snickering and mocking. Lindy's lips pressed together as she blinked hard down at the jacket in her hands. They had to grab enough for everyone back at the shelter, leaving so few behind... "Oh geez, we're thieves," she whispered in horror. Yes, it was a comfort to be wearing jeans and proper running shoes, but coming to terms with the action that went against everything Lindy believed in was harder than she thought it would. She tried to reason that it was for them, that it would be okay, it would cancel itself out, but the guilt continued to weigh on her mind. She slowly pulled the jacket on - it was a little tight, but that was okay. She looked over and smiled. "You look fine," she said.

Which he totally would've participated in, but would've not only hated but would've totally and completely lost. "Alright then, are you saying we should all go together, the nice friendly group we've got here? Stick together and all that stuff?" Delaney cast a small glance around the group, resting her gaze on Ari. "We also got quite a few people here. We could just split between two rooms. I'm sure that would be fine for one night." Uncrossing her hands, she stood in silence. "Why all this planning, anyway. Let's just," she waved towards the rooms, "do it." Stepping away from them, she headed for the back, her nose curling as she inhaled dust. I hate this.
Go back. Hm? That's what you really want, isn't it? You're the one that told me to leave. Delaney's brows knotted in confusion. Make up your damn mind. What do you want? It said nothing in return.((Haha, I wish you luck Ah, okay, sounds good. YES i love the r&m soundtrack, my favorite songs are the For the Damaged Coda and Do You Feel It)) thanks. ^^ i'm nervous but surprisingly okay. it's basically general stuff so i should do fine. good luck on your assignments!
look on down from the bridge is pretty good too. mazzy's got such a sad voice.

At Lindy's response, Kennedy went still, dropping his hands. He smiled quick reassurance as she glanced over to him, fully forgetting he was invisible for a second, and picked up the remaining clothes. "Come on. We should get back before it gets too late." The sun sat on the horizon, fully visible now that the clouds of pollution had passed, but sinking by the minute. It was cold, almost freezing and it felt as though it'd only get worse. Chattering his teeth, he started out.
[ should they run into something? i feel like they should run into something. . ]

((hoi i'm back do u still want lindy and kennedy to run into something? Like a guard/scientist person searching for them? Or an army person, since they're built for war and are probably used for some government thing - like we could time skip but keep L and K in like their own time bubble and be with the others at the same time - oh! Or they're telling the story of how they bumped into something on their way back while passing out clothes looking worse for wear))
