Keihn tiredly called from his perch in the kitchen, "What now?" He got up and came to the entryway separating the kitchen and fellowship hall, then snorted. "Bukowski, meet Death Otter. Death Otter, Professor Charles Bukowski, IU. Judging by the state of that knife, Charles, she's either flayed someone or laid waste to your specimen. The former, I hope?" Keihn smiled. It wasn't pretty.
Death Otter returned the smile. "Well, the night's young," she replied.
Then she went over and washed the knife off in the sink.
"So you're the guys Garvey sent, right? What's in the case?"
The water shut off, and she went to start rummaging through the cabinets for something ceramic...big enough to hold the volume of acid she saw come out of one of those sacs.
