Tinker buttoned up a pale blue shirt over the bindings that gave her a more masculine figure and adjusted her suspenders. Normally, the androgynous girl kept a nice patina of dust and maybe a smear of grease or two to help look more boyish on trips to town, but she decided to clean up this morning. Besides, Summer had mentioned that the Captain of the troopers wouldn't take kindly to deception.

She brushed the fluffy dogs and checked their paws before buckling the harnesses on them. The tall tech checked the little revolver before putting it back in its hidden compartment in the cart. A bag of hard candies joined a few tools in a case which was pushed up to the front, right behind the dogs. A full canteen and pan for the dogs was last, though Arlington wasn't terribly far.

She lead the dogs to the bunker just as the sun broke the horizon and checked the locks and camouflage before heading for town. Since the hermit had taken the same path yesterday, her trip into town took less time than usual. She had already scavenged what she could from the area.
Outside the gates, troopers were teaching some of the Arlingtonians fighting. A knot dropped into Tinker's stomach; she'd always relied on traps and tricks rather than actual combative skills. Hopefully that wouldn't count against her when she met with Jain.
Shaking off the anxiety trying to form, she waved to some of the kids that were taking a break and gave a handful of candies for them to share with the ‘class’. 

Once in the town proper, Tinker parked the cart in front of the general store again. She filled the pan with fresh water for the dogs and looked around the rooftops. When she didn't spot the ravens, she wandered back toward the gate and the sparring class. If nothing else, the troopers there could point her toward Summer or Jain.
[Hider=OOC]Sorry it's kind of crappy, but I don't want this to die. And someone *coughDNAcough* didn't post when he said he was. :P At play Tinker is back in town so no one can blame me for holding up the show.[/Hider]
