"Then we'll follow our instincts and either fight back or roll over like dogs. Don't get to comfortable, Tobe. Just because I smoked with you and you freed me doesn't make us friends."
Tobe chuckles and shrugs, grinning. "I didn't say we were friends. I said you were an interesting treat. There's a difference. But, in regards to what we'll do if Gods take over, I don't plan on rolling over like a dog." His gaze snaps towards Dresden as he sees her move, head tilting as he hears a stifled cough, though it turns silent again. "You know, with your outlook on the world, you and the gray would get along just fine, it seems."
"Interesting. Good choices though. "
At the knocking, the young man looks at him quizically. "What are you doing, pops?"

"What are you doing, pops?"
"Looking for this old gal's covert." answers before putting his ear to the wall, moving his hand around occasionally. Finding a hollow spot he grinned to himself before he held his hand out. "I need a crowbar or anything."

"Don't call me a treat, either, if you know what's good for you." Makai mutters, gaze flicking to Dres at the statement "Why do you think that?"

"Looking for this old gal's covert. I need a crowbar or anything."
Adam blinks a moment, the he stands and sets the train on a counter as he looks in one of the tool boxes. Pulling out a crowbar, he passes it to Ridge, then takes a moment to look at the gauges and the map. He pops another few nuts, reaching and decreasing the speed a little, seeing that they were nearing the mountains where the tracks grow a little curvy. He also turns and steps over to the foyer, decreasing pressure in the engine and releases a valve that allows the steam to escape through the chimney.
"Don't call me a treat, either, if you know what's good for you." Makai mutters, gaze flicking to Dres at the statement "Why do you think that?"
"I have this feeling," is all Tobe says, a knowing gaze finding its way to staring out at the landscape.
Dresden slowly sits up, grabbing her water and takes another drink as she ignores Tobe and his nonsense. She had never been fond of him, and his ramblings often made her aggravated.

Ridge took it without looking. As he began working to get the door open, he caught a shadow move out of the corner of his eye. His right eye trails to the boy, monitoring him silently- a smile breaking out on his face. After a moment its gone as he hears a small creak. Focusing his vision on the bar, he pushed it down gently- effectively pushing a small piece of the wall out.

"I have this feeling,"
"Keep it to yourself, then." Makai sighs, resting his head back as he addresses Dresden, eyes closing "I apologize, ma'am."

Adam walks back to the front, eyeing the darkening sky as he eats another handful. "Looks like we may run into some weather in the mountains." Hearing the sound behind him, he looks over. "You find what you were looking for?"
"Keep it to yourself, then. I apologize, ma'am."
Tobe snorts and looks down, closing his eyes as Dres waves away his apology, face slightly pale. Taking another drink, she pulls out her shawls, putting them on over the coat she wore, the cloth swallowing her whole as she pulls up her scarf. She puts the bottle back in her bag and sits against the wall, her arms and hands disappearing under the fabric as she seems to glare at the floor.

Looks like we may run into some weather in the mountains."
"How bad?" He asked as he heard the biy behind him, the smile fading back to his normal expression.
"You find what you were looking for?"
"I did. " opening the piece he pushed back he looked inside. "Good it's still here." Reaching in he pulled out a small toolbox

"Are you really alright?" Makai murmurs to Dresden after a moment of silence, not wanting to pry but worried since she is his guide

"How bad?"
"Maybe a snowstorm, but as long as the winds are against the mountains, I don't think we'll have much of a problem."
"I did. Good it's still here."
Adam studies the box, kind of surprised. "I never knew that was there. Did you put that there while you ran her?"
"Are you really alright?"
"It's no one's concern but mine," she grumbles, though part of her wants to spill the beans. But this day and age, being ill was an instant ticket to being alone, and no matter how much people irked her, after Ridge, she couldn't stand the image being alone again. Her chin dips down a little further into her scarf, over her piercing, and she closes her eyes again, listening.
Tobe twitches and opens his eyes, looking at Dresden with a small frown.

"Maybe a snowstorm, but as long as the winds are against the mountains, I don't think we'll have much of a problem."
"Well even if the winds came at her, I know we'll be ok." says absently.
"I never knew that was there. Did you put that there while you ran her?"
Dietrich grinned at him after a few minutes. "I had it in the corner at first, but I couldn't keep the other guy out of it. So one night I created this little hideaway hole. " Sitting the box down he searched through it. "I'm sure I have everything in here that we need."

"It's no one's concern but mine,"
"Sorry." Makai murmurs quietly, eyes closing a moment before he pushes himself to his feet, hand on his knee, walks to the door, looking around

Tobe's eyes move from Dresden to Makai, studying, then back to Dresden as he head cocks to the side. After a moment he stands and starts towards another car. "I've got to grab something, since I'm not sitting in my own car today," he grumbles, hands stuffed in his pockets as he walks through a door towards the end of the train.
Dresden listens, and just before Tobe walks through the door, she murmurs, "Watch yourself."
Tobe pauses long enough to look at her, though he doesn't say anything more as he leaves.
"I had it in the corner at first, but I couldn't keep the other guy out of it. So one night I created this little hideaway hole. I'm sure I have everything in here that we need."
He steps over, watching as Ridge dug through the box, a small grin at the fact that Ridge had a smile. Seeing all the different tools, he shakes his head and pops another handful of the nuts. "I could've used half of that earlier today when I had to make repairs."

"I could've used half of that earlier today when I had to make repairs."
"Oh I'm sure. And I could have shown you years ago when you were being trained. But would you learned how to make due with what you had? " he turned his head to look at him.

"I've got to grab something, since I'm not sitting in my own car today,"
"Watch yourself."
"What would you do if I just decided to jump?" Makai murmurs quietly, back to her, had waited till Tobe left "If I left the train and took off on foot, out of wariness of you."
