The words that left Conrad's mouth were ignored bluntly. [color=darkkhaki]"Seems you've dropped something cunt."[/color] The anger in his eyes hadn't subsided and it wasnt going to. Around the room others decided to pipe up but it was all white noise, that was until her heard a voice. [i]"Hey! Th-that's mine!"[/i] The soft but stern tone of the voice was enough to snap Leo back into the room, it was the little girl. She had woken from her slumber and was determined to get her bag back. Leo decided to act once more and moved across the room towards Jorel with a clear purpose in his mind. He took a grip on the girls bag and looked Jorel square in the eye with a deep sincerity. Then in a much calmer and muted voice than previously said, [color=darkkhaki]"Look, just let me do this...trust me."[/color] Jorel took a moment before letting the bag go, leaving Sully to pack everything back in hurriedly. After putting in what was in his line of sight, Leo turned to walk back towards the girl. He was stopped by a hand on his his shoulder. [i]"Alright, mate, but I was just about to give it back anyway."[/i] Jorel had stood up and lightly grabbed Leo's shoulder, holding out the photo. [i]"Those pitons and rope on the floor are hers, too."[/i] Leo took the photo from Jorel's hand and looked down at it, staring at it for a few minutes. He looked back up at Jorel giving him a nod of thanks before packing the picture and other few bits on the floor into the bag. While Sully had gone to reclaim the girls bag, her own attempt to reclaim her belongings had caught Brooklyn's attention and the woman was soon crossing the room towards her. She gently put her hand on the girls head and began to talk to her, it was a very uncomfortable moment for most watching her seemingly trying to mother the girl, especially after what she had been through. Jorel blinked twice at Brooklyn, who looked around the room hopefully. He had lost words, but after a couple seconds, he spoke. [i]"... What the fuck?"[/i] For a moment Ash blinked in surprise and was still. Not from the stern words of the older girl. No the, admittedly almost motherly, tone she took hardly affected her. It was the shock that she had suddenly tapped her on the head and then grabbed her chin. For another moment she sat there in a kind of stunned stillness. Before she lashed out, jerking her face from the woman's grasp and rocking back before striking out with her feet and kicked her as hard as she was able in the face. [i]"Don't touch me!"[/i] The young girl spat, glaring angrily at the blonde before her. [color=darkkhaki]"Here you go. My name is Leo."[/color] Leo squatted next to the girl placing her bag directly next to her. His demeanour had completely changed from the ruckus moments earlier but with the girl being awake changed things. [color=darkkhaki]"Everything is in there."[/color] The look on his face was one of reassurance and warmth, he needed her to believe what he was saying. [color=darkkhaki]"I know this must be scary for you, even after everything you've been through to survive. You'll be safe with us here, we're not going to let anything happen to you. I promise."[/color] He turned and glanced to his room before turning back to the girl. [color=darkkhaki]"We should probably look at getting you into bed to warm up, we don't want you to get sick. Would it be ok to put you into bed? Sam here can help get you ready."[/color] After what just happened with Brooklyn it made sense that only Sam deal with her. Sully looked around the room at everyone with his next sentence, reiterating what he had said to them all earlier. [color=darkkhaki]"I'll stay by the door the entire time and make sure you're safe."[/color] Casting his glance back to the girl one last time he asked her, [color=darkkhaki]"So would it be ok to put you to bed?"[/color]
