Francesca : Still sleeping, dad. No sign of infection.Rocky was sleeping rather quietly, probably having a good dream dispute what he'd experienced. Which was rather reassuring.
Jin and Francesca see the figure in clear view, after all zombies are taken care of. Whoever this is, they sure have given the zombies some severe case of splitting headache with that axe.Downstairs, more zombies fall, and the white figure comes into view again, wielding a fire axe.
He's a wolfdog from the looks of his head, with brown fur with touches of auburn. His heavy clothing, pasted with snow, is clear evidence that he was out in the previous night's blizzard. He shoulders his axe, and looks up the stairs with a bored look.Jin and Francesca see the figure in clear view, after all zombies are taken care of.

The elephant lowers his weapons, but the phoenix-wolf keeps over-watch of the surroundings to make sure they don't get jumped on.
Jin : Are you alright ?
Before Jin and Francesca is a wolf-dog, supposedly a doctor and/or alchemist of sort, but not the type to just be in the lab all day.He's a wolfdog from the looks of his head, with brown fur with touches of auburn.

"Of course I am."
It's the same voice as from the chemistry shop, and if there was any doubt about him being the same person, the bodies of some of the vanquished zombies around him are marked with wicked chemical burns.
"I'm looking for a new camp to join, as my previous camp was overrun a week ago. I followed after you spoke to me, to decide if you are trustworthy."Before Jin and Francesca is a wolf-dog, supposedly a doctor and/or alchemist of sort, but not the type to just be in the lab all day.
Though that's probably why he looks bored. Not working with whatever concoctions he wants to cook up, instead having to deal with the nasty walking corpses.
And with his attitude, he sounds like the bare minimum of 'friendly'. Only 'friendly' enough to not stab someone in the back, at least directly.
That same voice, and the smell of chemical waffling in the air, tell the two survivors that he's the same one they met before.
But in response to his boredom of having to deal with zombies like uninteresting paperwork that isn't of his concern, Jin just shrugs.
Jin : Good to hear, and thanks for the help. Even if you didn't mean to help. So, what got you out here ?
Jin : Aye. Welcome aboard then. We can definitely use your help."I'm looking for a new camp to join, as my previous camp was overrun a week ago. I followed after you spoke to me, to decide if you are trustworthy."
He states it all very matter-of-fact, with no hint of a tear shed over the loss of his previous community. Well, he's just spent a week on his own in this hell of a world.
"I accept your offer of shelter, and will prove an asset to your group."
"Of course, there's zombies everywhere. Most of them are far too pathetic to be a threat."Jin : Aye. Welcome aboard then. We can definitely use your help.
No handshake is needed though.
The elephant takes a closer look at the doctor without taking a step forward.
Jin : Did you run into any other zombie on your way here ? If yes, anything that we should watch out for ? And, do you need help with weapon, just in case ?
Jin : Name's Jin. That's my daughter."Of course, there's zombies everywhere. Most of them are far too pathetic to be a threat."
Very confident. Even being below Jin, looking up at the much larger elephant atop a flight of stairs, the newcomer maintains a superior air.
"My name is Dr. Ladislaus Nim, by the way."
Nim dismisses the question with a wave of his hand, then turns and heads towards a laden external-frame pack dropped near the doorway.Jin : Name's Jin. That's my daughter.
He carries the unconscious and tied-up Crescent down the stairs.
It seems this doctor isn't, and doesn't need to be, armed with the usual weapons. Considering he never bothers to answer on that (or doesn't trust them enough yet). Plus, given the zombies taken care of just as good with whatever his chemical expertise has cooked up with, he's not all that helpless.
Jin : So, what makes you think we're trustworthy enough to decide to join ? After probably telling yourself that outsider help is off-limits in this shit hole we're in ?
Jin : ... Yeah no shit.Nim dismisses the question with a wave of his hand, then turns and heads towards a laden external-frame pack dropped near the doorway.
"Even I cannot survive for an unlimited amount time on my own. I require allies."
He slips a sheath over the head of the axe, and fits it through some loops on the side of the pack. He hefty the pack onto his back, and secures the straps. It's laden with a variety of gear, and clearly quite heavy.
Nim follows along, staying close.Jin : ... Yeah no shit.
It's quite clear how 'grateful' the doctor is, with his newfound allies. Wouldn't be a surprise if he only sees them as assets, really.
The one that dismisses the majority of zombies as too pathetic to be threats, yet also admits that even he cannot survive on his own for long.
Though, despite how much they 'appreciate' each other's company, Jin and his daughter know better than to leave someone behind just because of their attitude. Hopefully the doctor is the same.
But more on that later.
As they continue on, Jin and Francesca make sure to keep their eye out for any zombies that might be nearby.
*throw a skyrim intro to get you to finally awake*(still magically knocked out in the city)
Rocky : Ugh....
The young canine was barley back to his senses, but at least he was waking up.
Francesca : Oh hey buddy. You up ?Nim follows along, staying close.
Good, very good. A new base has been established. Now only to hope that these survivors are not idiots.
Jin was carrying Crescent atop his shoulder, with the night lyacn seemingly being knocked out.
(I was waiting on Rocky to find me or something... just letting the peeps know Im still here)*throw a skyrim intro to get you to finally awake*
(Yeah Rocky is kinda being carried by one of the chars I'm playing, so it might take a while before you're found ; probably better to just wake up and immediately check to see if you got bitten, heh)(I was waiting on Rocky to find me or something... just letting the peeps know Im still here)

...cure? Interesting.*throw a skyrim intro to get you to finally awake*
Francesca : Oh hey buddy. You up ?
She gently pets on the pup's ears, when she hears him mumbling his brother's name.
Francesca : Don't worry, dad got him under control. Hopefully. Now to just wait for the cure to do the rest, at least for the next 2-3 days.
She looks back at the injury.
Francesca : Are you still hurt ?
Rocky : Hmmm...? I don't know... It doesn't hurt anymore. So I think it's better.*throw a skyrim intro to get you to finally awake*
