Basement: Sometime Sunday morning.

[medusae-x.livejournal.com]

Duce strolled quickly down the stairs to the basement, kicking an idle gremlin or two out of her way. She felt awful - she'd meant to come downstairs and keep Oz company during his laying-in, but had gotten so caught up in her conversation with Red that she didn't get back to campus.

"Hey Oz, are you.." her voice trailed off as she surveyed the ruins of the wall. Her face paled as she rounded the corner and saw the full extent of the damage and the meaning of the damage filtered into her brain.

Ignoring little things like common sense and personal safety, she ran forward, looking for .. bodies, blood, anything. "Oz! OZ! Are you in here? FUCK, man! WAKE UP!"

Finding him not at home was no comfort, considering it meant he'd been loose and was outside somewhere, probably with no clothes. Quickly snatching any boy-type clothing laying around, she turned and bolted back up the stairs, taking them two at a time.

"Oh good," Jake said weakly. He didn't like the addition of 'yet'. He looked down at the solemn girl who was patting him kindly. "...I'm Jake?" His face shifted to outrage. "Hey! I know who you are! You're the cr-- uh, eccentric person who lives at Efferton manor!"

Wednesday gave him a look of mild surprise. "I am looking after it for my aunt, yes. I am pleased to meet you... Jake." She shifted her hand to his arm and tugged him gently toward the trees. "Pawprints, I think... are you any good at tracking things?"

"Only when I have shiny gadgets," Jake replied, not sure if he was comfortable with beeig touched by someone who appeared to be staying at the manor voluntarily. That just wasn't human. And now he wished he hadn't left shinytellinggadget at home.

She probably wasn't human.

She could be anything.

Jake considered this statement, and nodded to himself. Yes. Anything.

Duce waits a few moments to let the two get farther away, and makes a show of tracking something. Winding her way through the bush, she circles around until she's sure Wednesday has Jake's full attention elsewhere.

Then, she heads straight for Oz, only to come face to face with a gardener. Since the gardener seems to be ignoring the naked boy in the bush, Duce optimistically nods to him and goes to help her friend.

Spotting a flash of pale skin, she stops, "Hst! Oz - catch." and gently lobs the clothing over the bush protecting his modesty.

He may not thank her. She'd grabbed whatever was handy, and.. the results weren't pretty.
