"Yesterday, Dr. Kendall, I found a pen that worked for all of five minutes before running out of ink." Harvard pointedly ignored the investigation group as they took off - if they needed help, surely, they'd let him know personally.
"And why, today, I have found you." He was avoiding her implied question - her speech had been vague enough that he could answer with whatever he wished and still be answering. But, he decided he would be charitable and allow her to clarify. "Or do you mean in a more existential way, Caroline?

Hitsu had enough common sense to not want to go in the direction of Kammy's shouting. She could have easily just gone with Cecil to wherever they were going to start scavenging for supplies.
Only he decided to respond promptly to the shouts and she was right on his heels when he went toward the washroom. With his longer legs she practically had to jog to keep up.
She was reaching out for Cecil as Kammy was approaching the entrance. "Careful, careful, careful." Hitsu hissed under her breath, staring worriedly past him.

She could hear Kammy's scream from here.
"There's potential infected in the Washroom, everyone who is able, get your a** over there and help take them out!" It was a very stern command. You should probably listen.
Kelly noticed Anya approach closer to them, and sent the girl a smile. However, before she had the time to approach, she heard a cry from the other area. It took only a second for Kelly to grow tense, her anxiety kicking in and causing her to freeze with worry. Was something going on? Was someone hurt? Was it number 13?
Feeling her breath catch, she turned to the others.
"Something is going on." It was simple, and she was suddenly overshadowed by a booming voice confirming her fear. They had a breach, and they needed it covered.
Without hesitating, she rushed over to see what she could do, eyeing the group and stepping into the area with desperation to do something and keep things safe. A month ago, she cowered. Today, she fought.

Staying out of the way was probably the smart move but it was, Austin thought, a short term solution. So the shout brought him -- not running, but moving quickly, jersey shoved into the back of his pants to dangle like a flag as he walked.
He wasn't much of a fighter, but he had been in fights. At the sight of the monstrosities, he blanched -- but swung.
And missed.

Austin's slim and a bit taller than average at 5'10' with sandy hair shorn short on the sides, longer and curly on the top. His eyes, behind a pair of thin wire thick plastic frames with the wrong prescription, are faded green and usually amused; his skin is fair, freckling in sun unless he's careful; his mouth is just a little too full, in a way that appeals to most people.
Something was up. Liam paused with the jersey over his arms, but not quite over his head, watching Corey as she questioned Kammy, and then heading off rather quickly with an invitation for anyone interested to come along. Liam, always eager to lend a hand, turned to follow as he finished pulling the shirt over his head. "Corey, what's up?
He wasn't sure if she'd heard him, but he kept following anyways, heading down the hall towards the bathroom, and when they were close enough he finally heard it--that awful, familiar sound of shuffling and thumping, and wet tearing.
When he reached the door he was just in time to see hands wrapping around Kammy's arm, dragging the girl deeper into the room as one sank teeth into her arm. 'Oh s**t!"
He wasn't alone in the doorway, he knew that, but his attention narrowed down on the situation at hand and doing everything in his power to fix it. In this instance that seemed to encompass charging in without much of a plan beyond 'kick infected a**'. It wasn't an awful plan, he did manage to drive his knuckles into one of the infected's faces, but it came at the cost of jagged nails digging into his opposite arm.

"Haha..." Cecil's laugh faltered a bit but he was getting used to his nickname from Kammy. "I guess if a barbarian is what you need."
He looked back at Hitsu realizing then that she had followed. "You don't need to come if you don't want to." Honestly he would feel better if she stayed back but he didn't have time to speak about it more, Kammy had unveiled the problem and went charging in head first. "Oh no..."
Cecil rushed in after Kammy, getting scratched up along the way, though his focus wasn't so much on attacking as it was to pull the girl back toward safety. "Are you alright?"

"GET YOUR ASSES OVER HERE!" She yelled one more time, before slipping towards the Washroom herself. Lead by example.
Except, in such close quarters, and with the amount of people here, her javelin was of little use, and all it did was spear the floor.

He'd missed. Frustrated, Austin shot a quick look around the room to see if anyone had noticed his spectacular failure and thought he caught at least one pair of eyes on him -- which was embarrassing and infuriating and fueling, all at once. This time he didn't try to swing a punch at the thing but, instead, slammed open one of the bathroom door to cut it off as he lunged in to attack him.
It collided with a very loud, very satisfying, somewhat surprising, crunch.

There was something about the idea of the pen that positively delighted Caroline; the knowledge that he had been fortunate enough to be the one to utilize the last of what qualified it as functional, what made it what it was...
"Did it serve you well?" Her skin prickled with goosebumps, despite her wearing several layers of clothing. "You've managed a much better find today, Harvard. Particularly if you were in search of something more lasting than five short minutes of--"
With no amount of subtlety, her hand had begun to gravitate towards his arm. It halted alongside her sentenced, and she dropped both of them in favor of a deep breath (and equally deep sigh).
"Go," she commanded of any more youthful stragglers, waiting for them to clear out as she began to consider her options again.

With an annoyed sound, Corey went to lift her javelin again. Except, once more, someone got in the way, knocking the back end of it enough to ruin the trajectory.
It only slightly missed.

"YES" Kammy shouted at Cecil, not angrily of course, just a little freaked out "Yes, totally fine, thank you tank. I am so alright. Yeah lets totally fight these things - OH s**t GET AWAY FROM ME."
The infected was back biting her again, so she kicked it away and actually did something useful this time.

Cerise heard the call to arms and very tentatively made her way to the washroom. She wanted to attack the infected, she really did, but she also didn't want to become its lunch. Self-preservation trumped courage--and just in time, as one of the infecteds' outstretched hands grazed her.

At this point Cecil wasn't a whole lot of help. He was flailing around trying to make sure the others weren't in danger and wasn't exactly looking out for himself.
"Ouch!" He felt teeth latch down on his arm and jerked back to look at the wound. So far things were not going well.
