[QUOTE="The Crimster, post: 159697, member: 2511"] The long process of putting together the last of Alan's files and paperwork begins. It will most likely be a long and painful process - it is tough to categorize the detritus of a friends life. Julia begins bringing in folded boxes from the garage. [i]Sam, you notice she's avoiding you. She seems embarrassed or something.[/i] Dr. Silver grabs a box and begins to assemble it. "Thanks, Julia." Julia nods and heads to the garage to get more. Dr. Silver watches her leave, and then takes the box and begins to put piles of paper inside. [i]Ray, you slipped the letter into your pocket, and you're pretty sure no one saw.[/i] Alex begins to assist Dr. Silver with the sorting. Quickly, a system forms - school paperwork [i]here[/i], term papers [i]there[/i], etc. [i]Alex, as you begin to assist Dr. Silver with the sorting, you notice a sudden difference in his demeanor. You just met him of course, but you can't help but feel something has... changed. Perhaps Alan's death just hit him? Maybe... But there's something else there, some other vibe you're getting from him. Confused? Hurt? Angry?[/i] Kristof and Sam are standing near the door, looking for someplace to start. Randy stands in the center of the office, looking slightly troubled. He then moves from table to table, desk to desk, as if looking for something. He then begins opening drawers and closing them.
