## History

#### *Clean Sweep*

Caldenia is sitting on the north balcony of Gertrude Hunt Inn, siping her tea and watching the street with a mournful expression. Dina walks over and offers her a bag of funyuns and a can of Mello Yello from a plastic shopping bag. Caldenia snaps out of her stupor and takes the food with thanks. With a flick of her fingers she opens up the bag and shakes out a few Funyun rings onto a plate. She selects one and bites into it, chewing with obvious pleasure. After a moment, she turns her attention back to Dina and asks how her exchange with the werewolf went. Dina sits in another chair and explains that he was pretending she was insane and had no clue what he was talking about. Caldenia suggests that he might be repressed, and Dina gives her skeptical look, insisting that he isn't repressed as he's spent the last two months marking his territory. Caldenia smiled and uses her razor-sharp thumbnail to open the Mello Yello can and pours the contents into her teacup. She takes a delicate sip of the mixture and points out that none of the drama occuring in the Avalon Subdivision is her problem. Dina reminds her that the people living next to them are their neighbors too, and that they have no idea what is coming. Caldenia rolls her eyes and insist that she leave this to whatever is considered law enforcement, though they will surely fail. Dina glances down the street for a moment, watching her human neighbors go about their buisness. Caldenia crunches on another Funyun and Dina offers her more Mello Yello. She gladly accepts the drink and savors every sip.
