"Peter." Elizabeth called from the door.

From the risk game, a lanky boy with bright green eyes and auburn hair looked up. There was some resemblance to Tanner, although more to the boy they had known at the world's fair than the grizzled vigiliante he was now.

Elizabeth motioned for him. He stood up and made his way over, walking with the slouched gangly steps of a youth who'd not yet grown into his height.

"I'm sort of in the middle of sumin' Aunt Lizzie." He said, voice having not yet fully dropped.

The Paladin's responding tone was dry. "It'll only take a moment.  These people would like to have a word with you." She said, gesturing to them. He looked from her to the assembled hodge-podge of weirdos. A super mutant. A guy who looked like a movie-star. Someone's mom. And a lady with strange eyes.

Peter's attention went, perhaps surprisingly, straight to Brutus, eyes widening. "He's here for me." Peter said, with some panic.

Elizabeth rolled her eyes. "No.  That's not-- no.  Just... listen to what they have to say."

Peter frowned, and looked between them again, not sure who he was supposed to focus on.

The dirt began to shift, as something impossibly large moved about beneath them.

"That ain't good." Josey muttered, standing up and planting his feet, the weight of his armor keeping him steady despite the poor footing, and aimed his gun-guantlets at the ground.
