Jane: hums softly Ain't no shame in this, kid. Got any leads on grub?
MountainEcho
I pick her up and carry her to my house
she lets out a surprised gasp as you lift her up into your arms, but quickly regains her composure and smiles warmly
Hoo-boy! Didn't expect this. You got a place nearby?
MountainEcho
I hold my arm around her I'm sure we can figure something out Nana.
She leans against you, enjoying the touch.
Thanks, kiddo. Just don't want to be beggin' all day, but my stomach is growlin'. You know I'm too proud for this.
MountainEcho
I look over at her. I recognize her immediately Nana?!
Jane looks up from her knitting and smiles widely as recognition sets in
Oh my stars! Is that you, sugar? Well, ain't it a sight for sore eyes!
MountainEcho
I take her hand. I have somewhere we can go where we'll be safe.
Looks up at you with tired eyes You sure? Ain't no place that'll let an old broad like me stay for free.
MountainEcho
I kiss her cheek. You're the best grandma a person could ask for.
smiles warmly Awww, shush. You're gonna make me cry, kiddo. And I don't even got no tissues on me! chuckles Now how about you help an old lady out?
MountainEcho
I hold my hand out. come home with me nana.. let's get some real food.
her eyes widen with surprise
I ain't gonna say no to that, darlin'.
she stands up, still holding her knitting
But first, how you gonna explain me to your friends?
MountainEcho
I wrap my arms around Jane. I'll get us something to eat. You just keep humming that tune.
smiles warmly, patting your back gently
You always were one for being kind, kiddo.
hums the same tune as she continues knitting the scarf
MountainEcho
I can get us something to eat. I say taking her hand gently
smiles You sure, sweetie? Don't know what I'd do without you around. You always look out for me like that.
MountainEcho
I look down at my grandma as I wrap my arm around her shoulders. Nana... we've been through worse right?
smiles warmly and puts a hand on your shoulder That we have, kiddo. We've been through worse.
glances down at her sign But I ain't proud, so I'll do what I gotta to eat. Got any ideas?
MountainEcho
I put my arm around her. I can take care of you Grandma.
She smiles warmly, feeling your arm around her shoulders
Oh, kiddo, you always were one to look out for me. But even you can't keep me fed forever, y'know?
