His brows lowering as he stepped out from behind the counter and came closer to her. Kneeling down and taking a closer look at it there was a nod. "Yes I know it," he said as he looked up at her. Slowly he rose to stand fully again. He was about to say more but another came over. Miss Ridgeway from the night before. It was probably best to get her on her way than to stay there and talk and have her wait. "We didn't use to but once Lady Munn started keeping her cat around here we did," he said motioning out to the street. "There is usually one of two out there trying to get the sale for the day. If you wouldn't mind, can you get enough for two cats?" he asked as he reached into his back pocket and pulled out some bank notes. "Don't pay more than this for three pounds," he said as he handed it over. "Sorry but I have to run and help a guest," he said to Lauren before turning his attention back to Mosi. "Follow me if you would." Vera looked over at the cat as it hissed. It didn't seem too terribly pleased right then. It made her wonder where Merneith had gotten away to but she wasn't overly worried about her own personal feline. Cats had a way of surviving.

Especially as it kept close to Nora, winding its way around her and becoming a hissing blockage between Nora and Mahendra. Vera perked a brow, whatever it was, it was at least making her focus on the now as she stepped over to the man and looked at the symbol.

If you will let me... tell you about the metal piece while we do,"[/color] he said quietly before the man re-entered. After that, it was not long before Peters body was placed in a pine box and taken out to the vehicle fro the barracks. George walked in silence and opened the doors for Reginald as they went. Once they were back in the transport, they were ready to go.
