<strong>Location:</strong>The Ruins of Gilbert's House<br/><strong>Tagging:</strong>All<br/><br/>With everything settled, Kimo simply nodded and went down into the tunnel.  Bubo the owl swooped up farther to survey the area and watch for threats.  Soon enough, Serafiel and the bulldozer were likewise out of sight.<br/><br/>Hitomi slowly nodded with thanks at Namira's words, and got to her feet.  She didn't quite have a smile, and she still looked pretty tired, but she seemed to be doing okay.  "The boat works," she agreed, not wanting to be a bother to anyone but still grateful for the help.<br/><br/>To JD, though, Hitomi offered sympathetically, "I don't think they'll expel you.  I mean, like...you're not going to believe this..."  Gently she bit her lip, fighting the urge just to keep quiet.  "And yeah, okay, maybe it's just made up, but I heard that there's one Scion who was stealing panties.  And then they caught him and he didn't get expelled.  Plus he can turn into a bear."  She didn't really expect anyone to believe her; maybe she was just talking to hear the sound of her own voice and be less the topic of focus.  "And that's on top of the whole Scion of Ra and the vampire thing.  So, like, if you have powers and stuff, I think they're going to be nice to you."
