When Sawyer reached her on the roof she was able to show him a trick she knew to how to get around. She pointed out the highest buildings in the slums as you could see the entire area from here. "The first thing to know about going over a roof is to know your direction. The tallest buildings can be used as compass points. Like so. North, South, East and West". She pointed out each direction as she spoke it. "So once you know which direction you need to go you can do so. It also helps to know the landmarks closest to your destination". Then she pointed again showing the more accurate direction of 67 & Vine. "Sometimes you need to watch your step or run into a gang but that is life" she chuckled. She liked passing on what she knew to others. Sawyer Dune

As they got above the roof that Sawyer needed, he took a minute to catch his breath. "Thanks for showing me just how the roofs are quicker," he said. It was something he could no longer deny him and Sophie were creating some kind of brother sister bond and though it made him want to throw up he would not fight it as hard. "Stay up here, I will be right back okay?" Sophie Chang

Sophie nodded and let Sawyer go on his way. She did walk to the edge of the roof to keep an eye on him for as long as she could. She felt they had something now and were certainly closer though she couldn't quite define it yet. She did know she had concern for him; the reasoning why she had shown him how to get to a roof, giving him a throwing knife out of her set and also keeping an eye out for him when she didn't have to. She wondered if this was having a brother was like. She already was feeling that way with Carmen who felt like a big sister. So she waited until he returned checking from each corner of the roof from time to time so she'd know which stairwell he'd be coming up. Sawyer Dune

He had good strings of wanting to do well inside of him it was just life had not allowed him to yet but at least he had therapy booked and that was good enough for the moment. As he finally found his shoes he made his way carefully back up the stairwell and waved to Sophie. "Got them," he said. "It was actually a lot easier than I thought which is good." Sophie Chang

Sophie had lost sight of him before after he left and only really spotted him the way up the fire escape. Either she was losing her touch or this part of town was a denser concrete jungle than the rest. She waved back and added "that's good". She'd helped him find food, then find his shoes whatever that was supposed to mean but did that end today's involvement. There might be one more thing to do. "I also suppose you'll need to know where I live as don't have a phone" she posed. Contact was important after all. Sawyer Dune

Sawyer did not really keep much contact with people but she was young. "Sure," he said as he blinked. Maybe he would check in but he was so sporadic he did not know but he still thought that she was here for the aliens. "If you do not feel comfortable showing me it's understandable, i can just go around yelling out your name." Sophie Chang

While Sophie didn't have a phone she did keep a notepad in her backpack. So taking out a pen she wrote down her address in the west slums and gave it to Sawyer. "You won't have to yell when you know where I live" she replied. Which seemed to end todays adventure. Perhaps there'd be more. Sawyer Dune
