As soon as Kate ditches Auggie, she stops by the clothes box to swap out shorts for something with more coverage. She gets lucky or maybe the box knows she'll set fire to it or who the fuck knows but it coughs up a pair of cargos.

She thinks about stopping by the Psych Office to ask Will where he thinks Druitt would be right now, first day on the island as an island and all that profiler hoodoo Will's so good at. But it's a waste of time. She's the one who's been tracking him. So she's the one who knows his movements best. Chances are, he'll do like most of the new people. Come here to the Compound, get food, get oriented. If not, she'll get Declan and start a search.

It's amazing how fast she can find someone she's been avoiding since he got to the island when she puts her mind to it. It's not ten minutes before she finds him in the hall by the men's bathroom. Gaze narrowed and eyes flat mean, Kate stalks up to him. "We need to talk." The now is very much implied. So's the, and that's not a request.

Druitt walked in silence, having no desire to make small talk with her other than he knew that it would annoy her. Since that would just be petty though, he could avoid doing that if necessary. He doubted that Kate would ever see him as anything but a monster, but there was no need to antagonize her.

"I was exploring London until the evening, then I went to bed. I woke up near six and have been exploring the island as it apparently meant to be since then."

"If I was with someone in that capacity, I wouldn't feel at liberty to tell you," John said. He didn't care how serious Kate was about this, she had no right to demand answers from him about that aspect of his personal life. She was also right though, that there was only one woman he wanted to be with.

"We went our separate ways if you must know. She did not share with me exactly what she planned to do next, though she did mention more sight seeing. Why do you ask?"

John crossed his arms, willing to stonewall her from now on for whatever answers she wanted. The motion pulled at the wound on his arm, his sleeves pulling back just enough to reveal the bandage.

"The bandage? Why I imagine it covers a wound," John said, feigning genuine surprise. If she was going to ask stupid questions, he was going to respond with stupid answers. He imagined that he had far more patience than she did.

"When Joan was entering the cafe she slipped on black ice and grabbed my arm. Her nails dug into me and caused several cuts."

"I doubt that Joan is the type of woman to go long without cleaning her nails when she's scratched someone," John said, not at all bothered by her proximity. His height might not intimidate her, but it made it rather difficult for her to intimidate him.

"And I have no idea where she is. It's likely that she got lost when the island switched from London to this."

"You don't need to bother with the knife, Miss Freelander," John said, eyes locking with hers. He probably wouldn't have noticed the motion except for the fact that the blade was his preferred weapon of choice and he knew the signs to look for.

"And if you are so convinced that I am guilty, then let's go to the authorities. Preferably without delay. Because I have done nothing to Joan and if she is indeed missing, then it's best we not waste time on this crusade of yours to see me punished."

"You are wrong," John said, heading in the direction that she indicated. Normally he wouldn't have trusted someone at his back with a knife, but oddly he trusted Kate. As angry as she was, she was not an irrational woman and he knew she wasn't going to stab him in the back.

"But the sooner my innocence is proven the sooner we can start looking for Joan."
