DT1: A Different Kind of Wild

((open))

Murphy walks into the XUB, sniffing the air. She was still exploring the campus, getting a handle on everything. She'd been avoiding this place a bit, it tended to get a little noisy for her tastes, but it was a calm evening and she was curious. She had never been in a bar before.

"Beer," Murphy says to the bartender. He raises an eyebrow at her request.

After being unable to produce an ID, she compromises with a root beer that she sips while looking around.

Weird place.

Sam makes her way in. Spotting the hard to miss girl, she gives a bit of a wave and heads over.

"That is neither meat nor meat based," she teases.

"Sam." Murphy smiles at the girl, before wrapping her up in an enthusiastic hug.

"How are you?" Murphy asks. "Good?"

by **Samantha McManus** » Fri Jul 24, 2015 2:31 am

"Whoah, hey there," she says with a faint blush as she's swept up.

"Uhm... yeah. Yeah, I think I am. You?"

by **Hannah Murphy** » Fri Jul 24, 2015 2:35 am

Murphy sets Sam down. "Very good."

"Interesting place."

by **Samantha McManus** » Fri Jul 24, 2015 2:36 am

"Got a chance to look around, aye?"

by **Hannah Murphy** » Fri Jul 24, 2015 2:39 am

"Little bit," Murphy says.

"Nice people."

by **Samantha McManus** » Fri Jul 24, 2015 2:39 am

"Yeah, the people that get on my nerves have stayed away, mostly."

by **Hannah Murphy** » Fri Jul 24, 2015 2:43 am

"Good," Murphy says.

by **Samantha McManus** » Fri Jul 24, 2015 2:50 am

"I'll admit, I didn't really think of you as a pub girl."

by **Hannah Murphy** » Fri Jul 24, 2015 2:52 am

"Exploring," Murphy explains.

by **Samantha McManus** » Fri Jul 24, 2015 2:54 am

"Sort of a jungle in its own right, aye? Not this so much, I guess. Just students, here."

by **Hannah Murphy** » Fri Jul 24, 2015 3:01 am

"Yes," Murphy agrees. "Lot of people."

"Exciting."

by **Samantha McManus** » Fri Jul 24, 2015 3:10 am

"I'd say there are less creeps here than in town but ah... you probably don't have problems with creeps."

by **Hannah Murphy** » Fri Jul 24, 2015 3:11 am

Murphy cocks her head to one side, "Creeps?"

by **Samantha McManus** » Fri Jul 24, 2015 3:13 am

"You know, like guys who try to hassle you."

"You don't look very hassle-able."

by **Hannah Murphy** » Fri Jul 24, 2015 3:20 am

Murphy smiles, "No. I'm not."

by **Samantha McManus** » Fri Jul 24, 2015 3:22 am

"Being built like a brick outhouse helps, aye?"

by **Hannah Murphy** » Fri Jul 24, 2015 3:25 am

"A bit," Murphy says.

Murphy looks concerned, "Bug you?"

by **Samantha McManus** » Fri Jul 24, 2015 3:26 am

"What, you? No. I'm just kind of making small talk."

"As quiet as you are, I'd be more worried I'm bugging you, aye?"

by **Hannah Murphy** » Fri Jul 24, 2015 3:30 am

Murphy shakes her head. "You're nice."

by **Samantha McManus** » Fri Jul 24, 2015 4:22 am

"I've got no reason not to. In your case, it'd be like kicking a puppy."

by **Hannah Murphy** » Fri Jul 24, 2015 4:26 am

"A puppy?" Murphy lifts an eyebrow at this. She's looks amused though.

by **Samantha McManus** » Fri Jul 24, 2015 4:30 am

"Aye."

"You know, all innocent and full of energy."

by **Hannah Murphy** » Fri Jul 24, 2015 4:35 am

Murphy laughs. For some reason, she really seems to find this funny.

"Cute," Murphy finally says. She sips her root beer, considering Sam carefully.

by **Samantha McManus** » Fri Jul 24, 2015 4:37 am

"Though I guess you're more like one of those dogs that grew up but didn't realize it wasn't puppy-sized anymore," she smirks.

by **Hannah Murphy** » Fri Jul 24, 2015 5:26 am

"And you?" Murphy asks.

by **Samantha McManus** » Fri Jul 24, 2015 5:28 am

"Well ah..."

She thinks for a moment.

"...I'm not coming up with anything that doesn't sound like I'm mugging for sympathy."

by **Hannah Murphy** » Fri Jul 24, 2015 5:33 am

Murphy considers Sam for a second.

"Red fox," Murphy finally says, patting her head.

by **Samantha McManus** » Fri Jul 24, 2015 5:34 am

"Ah, isn't it the dog's job to keep me away from the chickens, then?"

by **Hannah Murphy** » Fri Jul 24, 2015 5:36 am

"Bad dog," Murphy says with a smile. "Lazy."

by **Samantha McManus** » Fri Jul 24, 2015 5:37 am

"Well then, I can take being a fox if the dog's a sound sleeper," she chuckles.

by **Hannah Murphy** » Fri Jul 24, 2015 5:41 am

"Clever fox," Murphy says.

"...Is something wrong?" Murphy asks.

by **Samantha McManus** » Fri Jul 24, 2015 5:42 am

"What do you mean?" She asks, cocking her head in confusion.

by **Hannah Murphy** » Fri Jul 24, 2015 5:43 am

"Sympathy," Murphy says.

by **Samantha McManus** » Fri Jul 24, 2015 6:14 am

"Oh. Well, I've been kind of down on myself for awhile. It's something I really ought to stop."

by **Hannah Murphy** » Fri Jul 24, 2015 7:29 am

Murphy nods, "You should."

by **Samantha McManus** » Fri Jul 24, 2015 3:20 pm

"So I'm just trying to stop that before it starts, aye?"

by **Hannah Murphy** » Fri Jul 24, 2015 11:32 pm

"Good thinking," Murphy says.

by **Samantha McManus** » Fri Jul 24, 2015 11:33 pm

"I've got a lot less to complain about lately anyway. It's good being here, and I'm meeting great people."
