"She's too nice." He brushed his hair back as best he could. His assigned shower day wasn't until tomorrow. "How much do you know?"

He spat out a mouthful of toothpaste and rinsed the brush again. "About...Footsteps?" He was having trouble keeping track of this conversation. Especially since he was wary about the fact that it was even taking place, and half his attention was focused on searching for some sort of ulterior motive.

Cav sighed. They were supposed to rely on this guy to take down the Refuge, and the kid couldn't even keep up. "No, about the Refuge. About what's going on."

"If you know about me and Riddle," he said, leaning on the sink and finally looking at the guy, "you know why I might be a little hesitant to talk about what I know." He'd been sold out by the girl he loved; he was not about to give some stranger the same opportunity.

Cav shrugged. "Then I guess you don't wanna know what I know. Whatever. You're the one plannin' your own funeral." He headed back out to the bunkroom.

Goblin watched him coolly. He could be bluffing. This kid was hard to read. Which inevitably meant that Goblin would develop an obsession with him until he figured him out.
He pocketed his toothbrush and crossed the bunkroom, crouching by the vent and giving it a sharp rap. "Mouse, you there? Can you get Footsteps for me?"
((Feel free to borrow her! Otherwise I'll be talking to myself. ^_^))

((Haha, I got it!))
Mouse did what she was told, and Footsteps came over, sitting Indian-style by the vent. "What's up, Boss?"

"Don't call me that," he said for what had to be the hundredth time, though he was smiling just to hear her voice again. "There's this kid, been in and out of here a few times, can't remember his name...says he knows you, and he's got some information I might want. Ring any bells?"

Footsteps blinked a minute, trying to think. "Tall kid? Kinda cute? Talks in short cryptic sentences? That's Cav. He's ok. Stays outta drama, but is observant as all get out."

"Thanks," he said, mulling that over. Staying out of drama and being observant were certainly qualities he could relate to. Which didn't mean the guy was trustworthy, especially since Footsteps tended to emphasize everyone's good side and minimize the bad, but it was a start. "Oh, and 'Steps? Riddle went after Script last night. It's not your fault, I know you guys have to sleep, but could you try and make sure it doesn't happen again? Maybe let her switch with Bitter." It was a lot harder to launch a silent assault on a top bunk.

Footsteps' eyes widened. "Aw, man, no wonder she's been real quiet this morning. We finally got her to stop crying last night, but it's all she's been doing today. Riddle musta' really got to her. Sorry, Boss, it won't happen again!"

((I'm going to giggle every time she says that.))
"It's all right," he told her with a wry smile; the "boss" thing was just never going away. "Thanks for helping out with this. Really. I better go, though, the guard'll be coming back for us any minute." He reached through the vent to touch her hand briefly in thanks, then got up and looked around for Cav. He saw him off by himself in a corner, which was convenient, and walked casually over to him. "You wanted to tell me something?"
((Gonna go watch The Sixth Sense in honor of the holiday. ^_^ See ya later!))

((I just feel like it's something she'd call him! Cuz that's how she feels about him, hehe. And ok, have fun! I'll be around  ) Cav glanced up from where he was propped up against the wall. "Talked to Footsteps, I take it." |

((Oh, she so would. It's kind of perfect.))
He nodded. "I mean, she'd say you were all right if you were a serial killer, but I'll take information where I can get it."

Cav gave a slight smirk, folding his arms over his chest. "Well, first thing I'll say is the girls got it way worse than the boys. Way worse."
