[The feed turns on to reveal Dexter, face spattered with dry and wet blood, hair sticking up in all kinds of directions, shirt soaked with more blood, and to top it off, a white webbing that he's still trying to pick off. To put it into simple words, his face is twisted into disgust and he looked pissed. Which is very rare. Dexter rarely shows

[ SO WE FINALLY MEET FACE TO FACE (sort of), MISTER MORGAN. ]

Is that your blood or someone else's? I need to know how concerned I should look.

[Spots of blood are still covering his face, but he does look cleaner. He has found a clean shirt, which is nice.]

None if it is mine.

[Wait -- she was oddly familiar.]

[purpleprosed]

[ Her expression doesn't change either way, ]

Oh good, then I won't have to come find you and drag your body to the nearest medical facility. That would be terribly inconvenient with all these beasts wandering around.

I'm guessing you don't need any assistance?

[ She has a feeling she knows who he is. Then again she pays attention to names on the PORTALS. ]

[truncates]

[That's amusing for some reason, but her next statement makes him confused. She looked too young.]

Why would you go outside in the first place?

[purpleprosed]

My friends decided to be heroes and I was roped along with them. That and there are people out here that lack basic survival skills, so I decided to graciously offer my assistance.

[truncates]

How old are you?

[purpleprosed]

Don't you know it's rude to ask a lady her age?

But if you must know, I'm 13.

[truncates]

You're not a lady, you're a child.

[He's looking at her like she's crazy. But that's the keyword -- looking.]You shouldn't go out by yourself.

[purpleprosed]

[ It's funny because she's a little off her rocker. ]

I fail to see how my age defines whether or not I should be accompanied by another. There are enough people twice my age that can not even defend themselves. Perhaps it is them you should be looking out for.

If it's any consolation, I was hardly by myself most of the time anyway.

[truncates]

[She was right -- he shouldn't underestimate her.]

Don't be careless. Overestimating yourself can be a weakness.

[purpleprosed]

One that I am well aware of. I have no intention of doing anything too reckless.

I'm Rose, by the way.

[truncates]

[You're lucky, Rose. He's going to give you his real name.]

Dexter. It's nice to meet you, even under these circumstances. You're the one I talked to before, aren't you?

[purpleprosed]

[ She's honoured. ]

Likewise, Dexter. And yes I am, I would be the one that uses Lavender coloured text.

Assuming you won't be leaving your apartment for a while is there anything you need? Medical supplies? Shotguns? [ Then she remembers the giant locusts ] Industrial size bug spray, perhaps?

[truncates]

I don't use guns.

[Which would explain the blood. He doesn't do well with aiming a gun, his style is up-close-and-personal.]

And I have medical supplies. Do you need anything?

[purpleprosed]

Nor do I, but they are useful in some situations. Like, say, a zombie apocalypse. Or so the movies say.

Do you happen to have any Hello Kitty band-aids? [ That is a joke. GET IT BECAUSE SHE'S 13? ]

[truncates]

So are knives.

[She get a tiny smile at that.]

Do you?
