Max did feel stupid as Tyler laughed at him again, frowning slightly as Tyler said that it was something worse than that. How could it be worse? It all seemed to become clear as he mentioned having said something he shouldn't have. He took the hand that was offered to him, wobbling a little as he stood.
"If it was anything that make her even more upset than she already was, then perhaps she'll let me test out my new gun on you." He said, his tone without any hint of a threat in it, and his grin also made no hint towards actually going through with what he said. They had to stick together, moreso during the hard times like this. It was bad enough with Demons attacking them, without attacking eachother.

"But seriously..." He continued, turning to a workbench to his left, picking up a pretty large gun and strapping it onto his back. "I need to get a test on this thing, so maybe it will take Cathy's mind off things. Blowing things up always makes people feel better."

He sighed heavily, hearing his bed calling him in the distance. He could also faintly hear a coffee machine out there calling his name. Max didn't want to complain too much about his tiredness, seeing as Cathy was probably in a much worse state than him. He could go get something afterwards, or maybe sleep for an entire day.
"Right, get out of my workshop." He said, shooing Tyler out so that he could turn out the lights and lock the door behind him.

Kianne sat on a hard bench, one leg bent with the foot on the bench infront of her. The folds of her dress fell away from her leg, allowing her to reach the laces of her long heavy boots. It was time to take the scavengers out again, to collect whatever oddities they could find. She gently put her foot back on the ground, now brushing her long snow white hair round one shoulder, allowing it to fall down her right side. She could then comfortably pull up her hood, casting her pale face into the shadows she felt more comfortable in. She got to her feet, sorting out her dress. Most found it strange how she could wear a dress when going out on the surface, she too thought it strange. But it was about what was comfortable when in a fight, and this was just it.

She reached for the strap that held her dagger, lifting her leg back onto the bench so that she could strap it to one thigh. On her hip was a loop of metal chain, a dagger's blade hanging from the end of it. They were her best friends, the only two she could really rely on to be there for her.
When she was ready to go, the De-Man left her quaters, slowly making her way for the nearest doorway for the surface. She was going to be there early, but there was nothing unusual there then.

It never took long for her to get to the doorway, and surprisingly... there was a scavenger already there waiting. She was even lucky enough to have a cup of tea in her hands. She stopped nearby to the doorway and the girl stooped nearby. Kianne glanced at the guard that was minding the doorway, nodding slightly towards him; though she got no reply. No matter, at the end of the day, it was her kind that was keeping the humans alive.
