The watchman pup began circling through and around Sammy's feet, emitting that weird purr-growling to express it's happiness. Lauren just fake smiled at the little devil, rearing her foot back to kick it, ...but it just didn't feel right, so she didn't send it flying. "Told ya' he would be a nuisance..." She said rolling her eyes. Despite that one foul up the pup made, it seemed fine with everyone else. John even picked it up and petted it like a cat. He found a box to sit on, leaned back against the wall and let the little watchman curl up on his lap.

"Nathan, we're in the clear. Seems the mutants outside stopped bothering, too." Viktor said as he listened out beyond the cellar. Nothing... Nothing but rain could be heard up there now.
