Sam smiles at Janxi and nods, starts to speak, looking like she was going to take Janxi up on her offer. Hunting could be relaxing under the right circumstances. However, when she hears the report of where the barbarians got the helmet, she turns around and her heart beats faster as she wonders if they were talking about her brother and his crew, hoping they were all right after all. Sam keeps an interested but casual look on her face as she waits for the answer to Tori's questions.

Brea's mother looked at Janxi and then Tori before letting her daughter down. " " don't you hurt them, sweetie."
" Oh mama." Brea scowled before boldly walking towards squad. " Don't puppy play too?"
Shep smirked, " Yeah Soc, don't you play too?" He chuckled.
The leader laughed, " No one around here wants to see Horune. They're worse that the warrior woman with their lizard leaders that come after the storm season. Your clansmen stayed with us for several days to rest up before heading down the coast. We assume they had a boat there to take them home. Sounded like they had come from that way. You are welcome to rest and enjoy the Blue Marlin clan's hospitality in thanks for your help."

After an ice cold cleanup while no one else is around the doctor feels semi-refreshed but still exhausted. As such if there is no one else around her she lays down in the best place possible and takes a nap.

Socrates's head swivelled towards Shep. "I shouldn't." He answers, a grin forming. "It would ruin the cats' impression that I'm a fussy stick-in-the mud. And I suspect they wouldn't be able to handle the contrast."
Turning to the little girl, he crouches to her eye level. "Doggy. Try Doggy." He says encouragingly. "I heard you had other doggies like me here, before."

The little girl nodded. " Yup, while ago, but he wouldn't play. said he too big, might hurt me. He was way bigger than you. Uncle Dell got his hat." she pointed at the barbarian leader.

"He was looking out for you, then?" Socrates asked. "Very good of him. He must have thought you were special to be so careful."
He waited for the flattery (however transparent), to sink in. "And to give Uncle Dell his hat. Uncle Dell must have done something very important to help them."

"You'd be surprised what we can handle, Socrates." Tori said no more to him.
She looked at Uncle Dell wearing the helmet and her tail gave a friendly swish. "How 'bout them leatherbacks... What are they, and where they live?" She still considered them to be a suspect because of their slaving weapons, but the Marlins' fear and loathing of the Horune made them a suspect, too.
"Ohh a big puppy?" She asked Brea. "Betcha he was even bigger than Janxi!"
She turned her eye to the water again, knocked her arrow and loosed.
Fishing [dice=100] needs 50
To hit [dice=20+10]
weight [dice=6][dice=6][dice=6]/2
This time, she wheeled up another catfish, a seven pounder, and tossed it in her pail which was growing pretty full.
"I'll clean em, but if y'all want em cooked, ya better find a cook," she said to everyone else. Her Mk3 knife came out of its sheath, and she began to filet the fish, putting the boneless and skinless strips into a plastic bag when she finished.[rand=15990679368622074422111318787544490327292993029218476423621733421]

Janxi snickered at Socrates. "Aww yeah, I don't mind playin' with the puppy!" Of course, play for a marine and a cat usually meant wrestling, or as a marine would say it "grabass."
She wanted to give Brea a "lion ride" meaning a piggy-backer at full sprint, but was under orders to keep watch on Sam. That could wait. Instead she put out a massive paw for a hi-five from the little girl. "Maybe bigger than me, but ain't none badder!"
Her attention turned over to Dell as she listened to his discussion. "What kinda contact you had down south? Lookin' at the map, there ain't much south left." She produced a map-sheet from her case and unfurled it for Dell. "Can ya show us where we're at?"

"Hey Six? When we get outta here, will you recommend me and Janx for the DevGroup?" DevGroup meaning Special Warfare Development Group, or Seal Team Six... This was the navy analogue of Delta. Going to strange places, speaking strange languages, and doing really horrible things in the name of the CS flag.

Sam's heart leaps into her throat as she realizes that Tim and his group had been there recently. "How long ago did they leave?" she asks, trying to keep the emotion out of her voice. She looks over at Tori and frowns, "We'll talk about that later." she replies, waiting to hear the leader's response.

While Sam asks her question of Uncle Dell, Socrates waits to hear Brea's version of the story. He remained focused on her, his eyes the deep vacuum of information they always were, looking to gain her interest in telling ther story.

Dell paused a moment, scratching his chin," Before the last full moon they left. Come, I'll show you map of tribelands." He beckoned, walking towards the largest building in the village. " Bring your fish, you can cook or trade for something better."
Brea giggled with delight as Janxi gave her the ride, but she still managed to answer Socrates," Uncle Dell save big doggies life from petal turtle ambush. Doggie way bigger than kitty. Gave hat and helped clean shell."
That was when they realized the building Dell next to the one leading them to was a massive turtle shell.
As he passed Tori, Shep smirked and gave her a gentle rub under the chin," What, you trying to get away from me already kiddo? Usually takes longer than this to drive people off."

Richardson sits back and begins breaking down his weapons and cleaning them. He has had to fire them more than he expected and doesn't want them to fail him in the future especially being stained covered with water, and gator guts.
He occasionally lifts his head up and glances at those around him but he stays focused.

Socrates looked at the turtle shell. "You mean, you didn't take that down all by yourself?" He looked at little disappointed at Brea, for fun.
While the others walked, Socrates stayed close to Sam.

The Doctor is still napping from the exhaustion still trying to recover the much needed energy.
