This will stay the same through dinner unless a roll denotes something runs out. Right now everything is going well and there are no issues to report. Heat is still a factor but it is cooling down a little bit, not enough to really make a difference at this point but still better than it getting hotter.

There are crews on the walls and people milling about the main area. Past the distillery will be a mostly empty zone save for the people working in said zone. Streets have kids playing. Down at the beach are a few people swimming and body boarding. Others are out at various picnic tables set up talking, playing cards, various board games, etc. This will continue until the day start wrapping up. ~Picking up from the Jail Below~ Ted waited for everyone to pile in and let things settle before turning on the golf cart. "Sure thing," he said to Amelia before pulling out and back. It was a pretty uneventful drive back through the area. Between the main road of camp and the jail the area was pretty much not in use. It was maintained if they needed more housing or to expand but for now everything between the Distillery and the Jail was empty and for the most part off limits unless you were on your way to one or the other specifically on a job. Ted looked out for the kids playing as he pulled onto the main road and then detoured across the street to the Mechanics shop. Pulling up he turned the cart off. "Alright, you don't have to go home but you can't stay here," he said as he exited. "Who am I kidding, do what you want, I'm getting lunch. Well dinner, your dinner, my lunch, fuck it, food," he said as he gestured across the street before turning around and jogging over. [color=f1c40f][b]Mess Hall (C):[/b][/color] DoLittle chuckled a bit and nodded her head. "She's like a box of dynamite tied to a run away cat." Sighing slightly she continued. "Don't get me wrong, Nikki's a great kid. She's just a bundle of energy and very nosy. But she's a straight shooter. Can't stand lies, even bending of the truth grates on her nerves. She just doesn't have a filter yet or figured out how to pace herself. It can be a lot to handle. Probably why in supply they assign her to my office so much, she has the same energy as a new puppy. Helps wear her out sometimes," Dolittle admitted. By the door Joaquin and Atticus came strolling in. Both were looking around. Tapping Joaquin on the shoulder, Atticus pointed to Thalia when he spotted her. Joaquin gave a crooked grin as the two of them moved up into the line itself and waited to get their trays. Thana was ahead of Thalia in line, she hadn't decided what to get yet but it was her turn. Once she made a choice she was given her tray and the next person was served. The same went for Thalia who was several people behind Thana. As Thalia came up to the main area where the food was being served she was given the options for the evening and then handed a tray of what she asked for. It was still early enough in the day to have full choice so that wasn't an issue. Heading into the Messhall, Ted glanced around and got in line. Once he was through it he took a seat over with some other people around his age, they had recently been in the Education building. Some working, one of them asleep. Ted took a seat and started eating, he was beyond hungry and he did have to get back to work as soon as he was done. He still had another four to five hours to work today before he could call it quits for the day. DoLittle started laughing. "Oh god, if we could some how find a way to harness that girls energy we could power every settlement from here to the Bayou," she chuckled before taking another bite. "And I bet she is. I don't know if I could handle her energy levels but imagine she's pretty good about keeping things in order. Especially after she started shadowing that Thana woman when she got out of the hospital," she added motioning towards Thana standing in line. "Anyways, so what was this I was hearing about from the party last night, something about a fuck hunt? What the hell was that about?" she asked eying both Lisa and then Manny. She hadn't been able to really spend any real time at the party but the rumor mill was flying today. "Did Nikki actually hook up with Bass?" While the rest was happening Aeron sat happy, and stoned out of his mind, listening to Alexander. This was nice. The man was not asking about his health, wasn't pestering him about reports. Two guys just talking. "Ah, yes, my granddaughter says old school is where it's at, whatever that means," he chuckled before taking another bite of his food. "Hipster? Is that like a hippy who stubbed their toe? Sounds positively horrid," he added with a smile. He hadn't a clue what a hipster was but it seemed that Alexander was more in the know of pop culture than he was. As Alexander mentioned his wife, Aeron gave the man his full attention. He thought for a moment and then nodded. "Yes, there were but I am not sure we know of any active. We seem to be the third most eastern settlement along the panhandle that we know of, that is alive and running these days. There are remains of others, some of which we have had to go to for supplies. We can go check the maps tomorrow if you would like," Aeron offered. It was the least he could do for a new friend. It wasn't long after Nigel entered the room that the Professor and Rosie entered and took their place in line behind him. The line was starting to thin out by now but it wasn't moving any faster. The initial rush was over so the workers could breath a little more, refill the hot areas, reice the cold ones. "What will you have?" each person was asked. Behind Nigel, the two women were conversing with themselves. "I am telling you a Minotaur Bard would be a perfect addition," Rosie said surely. The Professor looked at her and rolled her eyes, "I am going to regret asking but why should I allow that in the campaign?" In her best impersonation of Christopher Walken... "Because if anyone gets a fever we have the cure: more cowbell! Eh? Eh!" Rosie laughed at her own joke. The Professor palmed her face in her hands, Rosie elbowing her as if she had just made the joke of all jokes. "Someone kill me now..." Edna groaned. [color=f1c40f][b]Jail (AA):[/b][/color] Cage looked oddly at Hunter when he said thanks to him. He wasn't sure what to think about it so he didn't say anything. Upstairs once he locked up he put the keys back on his belt loop and rubbed his face. He was tired and understandably so. It had been a long day, a long set of days. He knew though the extra long shift would be over soon. He was supposed to have the night off, Roy would be sending someone over to cover. It was an easy shift. One just had to monitor the area. Basically one just had to stay awake and make sure something didn't happen. No meals to make sure, no needing to check on the cells come night unless something happened. Cage would still be in the building, he lived upstairs. So he was technically still going to be around but it let some of the mental weight come away for a few hours so he could sleep. It was something he really needed right then. Outside Ted chuckled. "Shit, don't be putting your lateness on me. Be glad we had the cart, walking would have just put us further behind," Ted said with a chuckle. "And no worries. I ain't got a date. I'll deal with Auntie after dinner, this is just a dump, dash, and dine, it'll hold. My shift isn't over for another four hours. I'm mid shift," he explained. Teds day was only half over. He would work late into the evening, which could suck, but it also meant that he got to sleep in and didn't get up until much later than the rest of the place. This he was fine with. He hated mornings. Remembering that there had been a knock at the door, Cage checked his watch. "What the hell now," he muttered to himself before heading to the door. Opening it he snapped, "What the fuck..." he started before stopping himself as he spotted that it was Nikki. "Oh, right," he said as he walked outside and down to the supplies to start the check. It wasn't a lot and he was done rather fast. Signing off on it he handed her the paper and took the cart. "See ya kid."

Sighing she moved up some more in line. She hadn't put a lot of thought into what she was going to eat this evening, more concerned to see how Ash's first day went. That got pushed to the back of her mind for a moment as it became her turn in line. [color=0072bc]"The pasta salad,"[/color] she said. She was still overheated a bit from being outside. The sushi was good but she wanted something else right then, that or at least she really hadn't thought about the sushi much. Her eyes fell on the casserole and then the pasta salad. She wanted something cold. Pasta salad it was. As she moved forward after getting her tray she half wished she would have gotten the sushi but too late now and it wasn't something to be overly concerned with. It wasn't a tin of dog food, she was good. Then again she had once thought dog food wasn't so bad. Hunger can be a hell of a spice. Taking her tray she glanced around. She spotted some people she knew, turning around she saw who was in line. Still no Ash. Sighing she turned around and went around to try to find a place to eat. There seemed to be plenty of places but none that were standing out to her. Instead she walked over to the far side away from the line, the Mess Hall had a small stage. The building itself had once been an old school and they were in the lunch room that doubled as theater for the kids plays. There was nothing but boxes on the stage pushed against the wall. There Thana took a seat on the floor. It gave her a decent vantage point to see and be seen from the doors. Maybe she could spot Ash when he came in. The stage usually had a wall up in front of it, one of those ones used in conference centers to divide up huge rooms into smaller ones. Today the wall was down and it was open, Thana hadn't been told not to use it and there were no signs. This place was good about warnings, so if there wasn't one she was sure she was in the clear. If not, someone could tell her move. Sitting on the edge of the stage, Thana crossed her legs: criss cross applesauce and set her tray in her lap. Sighing she took a bite of her food and kept an eye out on the door.

The woman apparently didn't like dogs. That was something she really couldn't understand, not liking dogs. Dogs were awesome. Their owners not so much half the time but dogs were cool. Then again Nikki fucking hated bears. Even a bear skin rug would cause her to break out in a sweat. So she didn't judge Amelia for not liking dogs. Everyone had their own hangups these days, more so than ever. Fear wasn't always a bad thing. It did make her curious to why she would hate dogs. Was there a story behind that? That was something she would have to ask on later because right now she had something she was far more curious about: What the hell happened with Hunter to get him tossed into the stockade. Dogs could wait. [color=f26522]"Alright, no doggo around you and yeah, if there's dessert have them save me some,"[/color] she said giving a small wave before turning her attention back to the door and waited as the others left. It was a few minutes before she heard someone coming towards the door. Okay, this was her chance. As Cage opened the door she took half a step back. She wasn't afraid but she hadn't expected him to yell. Startled was more like it. Well there went the hope he was in a good mood. Sighing she jogged down the stairs and followed him. How to put it, how to put it. How to ask? This kept going through her mind. She figured it wouldn't take time long to check everything but she didn't think it would be that fast. Rushing forward she jogged next to him mas he pushed the cart. [color=f26522]"I need to talk to Hunter,"[/color] she blurted out. Well, so much for the gentle approach, or feeling things out more. Hell she didn't even ask. Said she needed to talk to him. It was the truth, she did. She needed to talk to him. She needed to find out. Curiosity killed the cat and if that was true she had better have nine lives because as soon as the words left her mouth she was pretty sure they could be her last. [/color]
