Aaron was, as usual, sitting on his cot. After Sam had left, the man had decided to take a short nap to calm his nerves. He awoke not long afterwards and found himself, once again, lonely. The guards stood by his cell, remaining as silent as always and earning a sigh from the prisoner. He glanced down at the floor, spotting a mouse in the corner of his cell. Aaron’s lips quirked up with amusement. “Hey, little guy. What are you doing in a place like this?” He asked, chuckling at his own ridiculousness. He was talking to a mouse. That was sure to make him look sane.

As the unfamiliar woman handed her a plastic bag of various medicines, she gratefully took it. They would definitely be
useful once she got herself settled and could start patching people up. "Thank you, I'll make sure to sort through
these when I have a chance to," she responded, quickly peeking at the contents.

When she mentioned the man - Theo's - ailment, Margot quirked a brow at the man who seemed reluctant to be examined.
She would've liked to at least give him some proper painkillers from the bag she had just received, but she wouldn't force
him to stay. When the man started walking away before she had a chance to say anything, she turned her attention to
the woman. "Try to see that he gets some rest at the very least. If any more symptoms come up, bring him back,"
she advised, hoping that it was truly just a headache and nothing worse. Realizing she never introduced herself, she
spoke up again: "I'm Margot, by the way. Nice to meet you."

When the pair took their leave, she limped back inside the house. As she spotted Adeline's petite form in the doorway,
she closed the door properly to keep out the increasing chill. The girl looked quite amusing in the oversized t-shirt, but
Margot felt like they weren't familiar enough to comment on it. "Good morning, I hope I didn't wake you," she spoke
before flopping back on the couch. The crutches had left her arms sore, but at least her leg would get a chance to heal.
She'd have to change the bandage soon, but Adeline probably didn't want to see that.

adeline shook her head gently. "no no, you didn't wake me, i slept kinda late anyway," she tried to assure
margot. adeline smiled slightly. "i didn't know you were a doctor, that's probably been very helpful since
the outbreak." she said. she didn't think being a doctor would be a burden. having the knowledge to take
care of yourself and others would be extremely helpful. adeline wasn't sure what kind of response she was
looking for, but she hoped to make some kind of conversation, she didn't want margot to feel unwelcome.
and maybe adeline finally had a chance for a friend, or even just an acquaintance; she was tired of feeling
completely alone in the big wide world.

after she spoke, she had heard a distant voice. it wasn't margot's, but it was extremely familiar. she thought
for a second about who it could be, before she remembered. it was nina, the other injured girl she had met
at the bonfire meeting the night before. they had all walked home the night before, and adeline had learned
that she had chosen a house fairly close to her own. adeline perked up in alertness, going back to the front
door and opening it. adeline didn't care that she was still in her pajamas, the apocalypse was no place for
formalities. she stepped out onto the porch in only her socks, glancing back at margot to signal her to come
out, only if she wanted to or felt like walking around on her sore leg anymore. "hey, nina!" adeline called out,
inviting her over to them. nina was down the sidewalk a little ways, past the small grassy lot that was beside
her home, and essentially at the neighbour's driveway. adeline didn't know if nina was busy today, but figured
the three of them might want to continue on their basic, friendly conversation from the night before. adeline
enjoyed having friends again.

Margot's face flushed slightly at the mention of her chosen profession. She smiled awkwardly at the girl -
had she really not spoken about it yet? "Oh, yes. I was merely a first year resident, but I've learned
a lot out there." The apocalypse had truly been a hands-on learning experience, even if she hadn't met
many people during her aimless travels in the destroyed world. There had been a few occasions where
she'd been able to assist a fellow traveler, and she did sometimes wonder if they'd made it somewhere
safe. What she didn't like to think about were the patients she'd had to leave behind when the hospital
fell into chaos.

Adeline seemed to suddenly perk up like she had heard something, but Margot hadn't noticed a thing.
She quirked an eyebrow at the girl as she rushed to the door, before her own curiosity got the best of
her and she struggled up from the couch, nearly knocking over the bag of miscellaneous medicines.
Grabbing her crutches once again, she headed out the door and onto the porch. What Adeline had heard
was Nina, the woman from last night's bonfire. She waved at the woman, hoping that she'd like to join
them - she was undeniably curious about what had happened to her and how she'd ended up here.
