"I'm okay, I missed ya and decided to swing by before work."
"I missed ya too Rex." She said with a smile as she tucked her hat in her back pocket. "How is everything at work?"
"What'd you eat for breakfast, missy? Huh?"
She shook her head, "I haven't eaten yet." She smiled a little at him lifting her hands like it was nothing. "I was goin' ta go get somethin' after I found my hat." She said with a bigger smile. She didn't notice that he was hiding anything.

"I missed ya too Rex. How is everything at work?"
"Okay, I've been laying low on pranks, working harder. Mr. Carson's wife has some fever, and he's been real stressed out. Feel bad for the guy so I figured I should just lay low and get my work done." Rex explained, fiddling with one of the loose buttons on his collared shirt that hung open, his undershirt underneath.
"I haven't eaten yet. I was goin' ta go get somethin' after I found my hat"
Rex nodded and smiled, "Maybe I'll tag along, get me some coffee to wake me up...or some chocolate milk." He grinned. Chocolate milk was his absolute favorite. He sighed and pulled out his lucky dollar, placing it behind his ear and plopping down on Muse's bed.

"OK I have walked all over Brooklyn. Where is Spot Conlon?!" Bubbles yelled. "Does anyone know how to treat a girl?"

"Okay, I've been laying low on pranks, working harder. Mr. Carson's wife has some fever, and he's been real stressed out. Feel bad for the guy so I figured I should just lay low and get my work done."
"Oh," She said looking concerned. "Is she going ta be okay?" She glanced up at him as she started rolling one of her sleeves up to her elbow.
"Maybe I'll tag along, get me some coffee to wake me up...or some chocolate milk."
"I would be insulted if you didn't tag along with me." She said putting a hand on her chest faking hurt. She laughed when he pulled out the lucky dollar. "Looks like it's still lucky." She said pointing at it as she sat next to him and pushed her hand under her pillow again to check to make sure she had gotten all the coins out.

"Is she going ta be okay?"
"Maybe, maybe not. Carson has been coming and going from work, checking up on her. They've had doctors over quite a few times, the fever's just not breaking yet. We just have to wait and see and hope for her. I've met her before, real nice woman." Rex replied, never looking at the bad side of things.
"I would be insulted if you didn't tag along with me."
Rex laughed at her feigned hurt and shook his head, "I wouldn't dream of insulting you, madam!"
"Looks like it's still lucky."
Rex nodded and grinned like an excited little schoolboy and shoved it in her face, "Smell it, see still has the smell!"
"Well I see you two have a relationship going. I don't want to intrude."
Rex looked up at the girl who had entered the room and smirked slightly shaking his head, "We just brother and sister. Conlon probably ain't in, he always leaves early," Rex told the girl, he knew that from being at the lodging house so much visiting Muse.

"I hope she gets better, Mr. Carson is a good guy. I would hate for him to lose her." She said as she pulled up her other sleeve.
"I wouldn't dream of exaulting you, madam!"
Laughing, she fixed his hair so it wasn't all messy but at the same time didn't look extremely over styled. "I love ya Rex." She said with a smile.
"Smell it, see still has the smell!"
Taking the dollar gently she smelled it. Yes it indeed still smelled lucky. Laughing she gave it back to him and looked over towards the new girl that came in.
"Well I see you two have a relationship going. I don't want to intrude."
"We just brother and sister. Conlon probably ain't in, he always leaves early,"
"Yeah Conlon already left, but your welcome to stick around till he comes back. Won't be till later though." Walking up to the girl she stuck out an ink stained hand. "I'm Muse." Turning she pointed towards Rex on her bed. "And that's my brother Rex."

"I hope she gets better, Mr. Carson is a good guy. I would hate for him to lose her."
'Yeah me too, he puts up with me, which is more than any other boss would say, even when I lassoed him the other day...hehe," Rex laughed, shaking his head.
Rex grinned at her after she fixed his hair, he didn't mind her sisterly touch. She was always fixing him up, either fixing his hair or fixing his collar.
"I love ya Rex."
"And you sure better know I love ya too, sis, I love you more than my lucky dollar!" He beamed at her and took his dollar back after she told him it indeed still had the smell.

"You lassoed him?" She asked raising an eyebrow at him. Shaking her head she laughed at him. She pulled on his shirt a bit. "Come on, let's go bet breakfast before we gotta get ta work." She said smiling at him.
"And you sure better know I love ya too, sis, I love you more than my lucky dollar!"
"I should hope so, seeing I ain't a piece of paper." She said laughing and nudging him in the side with her elbow. She walked backwards a bit on her way towards the door.

"Come on, let's go bet breakfast before we gotta get ta work."
He grinned and nodded his head, "Sounds like a plan to me."
"I should hope so, seeing I ain't a piece of paper.
"hey hehe I didn't mean it like that! hehe, and its a special piece of paper mind you," He stuck his tongue out at her as they headed down the stairs, waving to the new girl and walking out the door.
(wanna have them just keep posting in this thread, instead of making a new thread, we can just have them get breakfast from a vendor or something like that)

"Sounds like a plan to me."
"I always have the good plans." She said in a teasing tone with a laugh. In all reality Rex usually has the good plans.
"hey hehe I didn't mean it like that! hehe, and its a special piece of paper mind you,"
Muse stuck her tongue out back him. Jumping off the last step she stumbled a little and took her hat out of her pocket and placed it firmly on her head leaving her braid swinging behind her. She smiled and waved to the girl and pushed the door open.
(Sure ^^)

Rex stopped on the doorstep and hit himself in the forehead with the palm of his hand. "Wait! I forgot something, be right back!" He dashed back up the stairs and grabbed the package he had left unnoticed on Muse's bed and hurried back down to the front steps outside where Alice was waiting. He put it in plain sight for her to see, but decided he would keep her in surprise for a little longer.
"Have a package for Mr. Carson to drop off somewheres, almost forgot it," He told her, grinning recklessly. He was so excited to give it to her. He had been saving up for some nice blue suspsenders for Muse for the past month. They were nice and matched her eyes, and would be better than her old ratty ones.
"Okay, lets go, I'm so hungry I could eats a horse!" Rex told her, grinning and grabbing her hand, tugging her down the street, bouncing along energetically.

"Wait! I forgot something, be right back!"
Looking back up at his disappearing form with confusion, she shrugged and leaned against the door frame, unsure of what he could have forgotten up in the bunk room that she wouldn't have seen. She smiled up at him and pushed herself off the door jam when he came back out.
"Have a package for Mr. Carson to drop off somewheres, almost forgot it,"
Nodding she eyed the package, "I never even saw ya carry it in the room with ya." Still looking at the package curiously she glanced back up at him. "What's in it?"
"Okay, lets go, I'm so hungry I could eats a horse!"
"But their too cute ta eat!" She protested with a laugh, as she let her brother drag her down the street towards breakfast. He was always so energetic, it made her energetic too.

"I never even saw ya carry it in the room with ya. What's in it?"
Rex inwardly grimaced, just like Muse to keep asking about it. He shrugged and fidgeted, fumbling along for an idea. He scratched the back of his neck and replied, "Some bridles we needs to bring to the blacksmith to fix. The leather is old so they're breaking easily."
Rex hated lying but he still wanted it to be a surprise, and it wasn't so much of a surprise when she has all her full attention on the box like that.
"But their too cute ta eat!
"Good point, that's why we need ta get us some real breakfast before I hunt down a horse!" Rex exclaimed, smiling expertly and scanning the street for a good cart.

"Some bridles we needs to bring to the blacksmith to fix. The leather is old so they're breaking easily."
Looking at him curiously she shrugged accepting the answer and turned her attention way from the package helping him search for a cart.
"Good point, that's why we need ta get us some real breakfast before I hunt down a horse!"
Laughing she pointed to one. "There's a fruit cart and the vendors pretty nice," She suggested with a shrug. "But only when he's had his morning coffee." Seeing the vendor she was pointing at snap at someone who was trying to ask to many questions she looked at Rex. "Which I take it he didn't."
