Arlen took Kodi's coat and carefully hung it up, watching her take a seat by the fire. Part of him couldn't help but notice how the firelight lit off her skin, and her hair. It wasn't so different a color than his, granted much longer however. He walked over, picking up the phone on his way.<br/><br/>"Kodi? A nice nickname, it suits you nicely." He tried to smile reassuringly as she spoke of where she was headed, and patted her shoulder, holding the phone out. He also dug in his pocket for a tissue; he knew they'd pay off eventually. He handed one to her, smiling warmly. "Here, it's alright. You can use the phone, but I'm not sure you'll be able to get a call out. If the storm keeps up, the power might go out and I don't have any cell service here as it is. Dropped about an hour and a half ago."<br/><br/>He watched her take both the tissue and the phone timidly and got up, walking towards the kitchen. "I'll make something to drink, hang tight." And so he started on a pot of water, pulling out some teabags.
