I13DT - This Won't Be Awkward

[Allison Rogers]

"Insert jokes about euphemisms here," she said with a half-smile. She walked over and put her hands on Sam's shoulders, "If I can stand in a court room and not rip out the throat of the guy at the other table when he questions both my intelligence and my education, then you can get a handle on this... stuff. But you have to let some of your friends here shoulder some of the extra burdens for you or you will burn out and then you'll be of no use to anyone, not even Nailah. Got it?"

[Samantha McManus]

"I get it, aye."

"And really... even being angry at her has spent itself, I think."

"Sometimes all it takes is talking for that to happen," she said, going back to her bike and popping open the carrying cases, pulling out an insulated bag from one and a small bag of groceries out of the other.

[Samantha McManus]

"...aye."

"I suppose I don't blame her given it's November, but... I rather suspect she shut the window after I left."

[Allison Rogers]

"I can offer you a couch. It's a really nice couch. I just need to run this Chinese food to Dee," she said, patting the insulated bag.

[Samantha McManus]

"I'll let you know."

"I do still use doors."

[Allison Rogers]

"You're assuming she hasn't locked the door. She's a cat, we can be kind of vindictive."

[Samantha McManus]

"That's what makes it fun," she smirks faintly before her form flows back into a flock of ravens, starting for Dower House.

Allison just shakes her head and heads off for the Point.
