<em>Carver w/ All in Main Cabin, main room</em><br/><br/>Carver met Jenna's eyes and nodded in her direction.<br/><br/>"Yeah, I've been involved in dealing with them on a few occasions.  Of course, my area of professional focus is on Botany.  However, I like the outdoors.  And with the random jobs I've held in the Forestry Service and the Department of the Interior, I've had my share of...interesting times."<br/><br/>He sipped the drink and then turned toward Brook.  "You shouldn't worry too much.  They, meaning all animals, aren't the rampaging things media uses to sell tickets or get eyeballs on their shows.  Not normally.  You just have to know what they want and what to do if it gets interesting.  But, if need be..."<br/><br/>He motioned with his cup toward the standing gun safe.<br/><br/>"I asked for some 'tools'," he said, making the air quotes with his fingers, "to help deal with any possible issues.  Also, in case we need some fresh sources of game meat."<br/><br/>He glanced between all of them.  "If any of you would like, I can show you how to shoot.  And if you all would like to, camping might be fun sometime."<br/><br/>His eyes turned toward Brett and gave him a slight smirk.  "Of course, you'll have to bring your guitar.  Wouldn't be a camping trip without a guitar.  Just don't ask me to sing.  Not unless you want wolves howling in response."<br/><br/>He glanced back toward the common bedroom/bunk area as he set his cup down.  He hadn't taken much of the Dom and had finished it.  He also suspected that the Dom wasn't the only alcohol on location.  He had been asked his feelings on alcohol and it's role in socialization during the battery of interviews.  If he was a betting man, he would guess the planners of this little antfarm would have included means for the group to relax together.  And lord knows alcohol has been used in such a manner for thousands of years.<br/><br/>"After I get my gear stowed, I want to check out the rest of the compound.  The coop, barn, small greenhouse, the containers, all that.  Anyone want to join me for a walking tour?  I figure we've all got stuff to focus on, but...well, anyway, I just thought it might be nice to take a stroll.  If not now, maybe after dinner?"
