Typhoid's hand was still protectively over her shoulder, which now bore scabbed over gashes and old blood, which was an improvement. She'd need treatment and stitches, but was fine for now. "Not yours, I would think?" she said, nodding at the child in Odin's arms.

::Odin's arms around the child were awkward, understandable as he had practically no experience with children. Primarily memories of his own childhood.:: "No, he's a scatterling. I'll find his parents soon."

She nodded, having about as much experience with children as he did, and he was probably more suited to finding where the child belonged, anyways. The crowds were dispersing, although there was a group or two that managed to head off howling in other directions, this time followed closely by police. She wasn't on alert anymore. "I need to get back to the Mansion."

::Odin noticed her shoulder was better, although not healed completely. Some time with a medic would repair that, and he nodded.:: "It's time for us all to go back where we came from before the police come to take witness reports."

Paige had gone away from the others after Monet had left, attempting to stop some more fights, and getting into some of her own. Though she did not start them of course. Breathing heavily, her metal skin was starting to peel off, but she had no clothing to put on and knew in just a matter of minutes she would be completely naked, and that was the last thing she'd want seen on the 11 o'clock news tonight. She had gotten some of the tear gas from when the police had been trying to stop this violence. It hurt her lungs and she was still coughing sporadically as she made her way back over to where Odin and Ty were. She saw the small child in Odin's arms and a frown fell upon her features. She was reminded of her younger siblings when she saw the little boy covered in mud. "Where did Kurt go?" She asked, her voice sounding slightly raspy from the tear gas hurting her lungs.

"Hopefully back at the Mansion with Strype," Ty replied. "Odin's right, we should get out of here before they decide they want witnesses." She frowned at Husk's raspy voice; the girl had been way too close to the heart of the riot. Although then again, hadn't they all.

"Try to be careful, both of you," ::Odin told them, particularly Paige, who looked as though she had spent far too much time fighting rather than staying away, as he had.::

Her eyes and nose were still watery from the tear gas, and she probably looked like hell at the moment. She felt like it anyway. Coughing again she covered her mouth as she did so before she looked to Ty. "I hope they're alright." Paige said before looking to Odin, "Do you need help findin' his parents?" Paige asked, though she hesitated to ask the second question she eventually did. "Does anyone have any clothes handy? I'm about to be completely naked." She admitted. If it weren't for the metal covering most of her face, they would be able to see her cheeks go red.

"I can find them," ::Odin assured Paige. She had had far too much action and excitement already, as had, he suspected, the child, who was not struggling with him, and he did not want to upset that balance lest the child begin crying. At her other question, he began an act of finesse with undressing, shifting the boy to one arm while he removed his jacket, and to the other when he did the other sleeve, to hand it over to her.:: "This is all I have, without taking off my slacks."

Paige smiled gently at Odin in appreciation before she moved to put his jacket around her. "Thanks." She said softly. She then looked at the little boy, he looked exhausted and without thinking moved forward. "Hey there," She began to say a smile came to her face immediately. "This nice man is goin' ta help you find your mom and dad, okay?" She asked, trying to reassure him. When the little boy nodded she smiled gently at him before looking over at Ty. "Ready?"

"Yeah." Ty nodded at Paige. She turned to Odin. "Good luck."

Paige nodded before looking back to Odin, smiling sheepishly. "I'll give this back to you, and be careful." She said before moving to follow Typhoid.

"I'll get it next time I see you," ::Odin told her; he could cope without his jacket for a few days. While they went off in one direction, he went off in another, still holding the child. He had a set of parents to find.::
