[Something is very...different, this morning.
The Piemaker isn't baking, for one. Ordinarily this would be a sign of marked distress, but he's not even found in the kitchen today.
He's in the maintenance office. Acting like he's always belonged there.]
I want to do a wide sweep of floors two and three today. We should start from the top and work our way down. It's. Efficient.
[Markedly noticeable are his lack of pauses and hesitation. And his pointy ears. Elf ears.]
Dean, if you want to come down and review this list...
[All of a sudden, something catches the Piemaker's eye. He looks up and sees his own dog, Digby, sitting patiently across the room.
The Piemaker looks at his hands. And looks to Digby.
He feels remarkably different today]
...Hold that thought.
[Crossing the office, the Piemaker walks over to the dog he rose from the dead: the dog he hasn't been able to touch since he was nine years old.
He reaches out, terrified and entranced, as his fingers ghost along Digby's fur coat, not quite touching. Does he dare? Is this real?
Digby, tired of waiting and knowing that there is something equally amiss this morning, loses his patience and bounds on top of the Piemaker, falling into his arms and licking him furiously]

Which would, normally, be a beaming grin because HE'S PETTING DIGBY, but this is the flood equivalent of that. Which currently Rogue-haired Dean has failed to notice.]

She doesn't seem especially bothered by any of this.]

[He sits on the floor of the maintenance office, hugging Digby in his arms]
Our ears match.

Date: 2014-02-13 06:44 pm (UTC)Digby looks thrilled.

Date: 2014-02-13 06:47 pm (UTC)We're touching and he's not dead.
I haven't been able to hold him since I was nine.

Date: 2014-02-13 06:49 pm (UTC)This all dates back to...twenty years, but when I was nine I found out I had this...ability to touch dead things and bring them back to life.
As long as I only touch them once. One touch life, second touch dead again. Forever.
And when I was nine, Digby was hit by a truck. I brought him back but ever since then we can't...touch.
Except during floods. This flood. We're touching.
I forgot how soft his fur is.

Date: 2014-02-13 06:54 pm (UTC)The thought eventually gets brushed aside, but it's slower going than it usually is. She's not generally angry about what's happened to her.]
It's nice to see something good happening because of this place.

My, um. My first deal here...I had an inmate before Alpha. Thomas. And when Thomas went home I was able to touch my dead girlfriend and it was the best feeling in the world.
