"Sometime ...I just remember him coming into the shelter dressed as Santa Claus, then taking the suit off and telling me the story of what he was doing." Kit explained.

"He did.." Kit spoke out.
"So how does he do it?" Desire asked, as Kit continued to wipe down the walls- before Desire gave her a bit of a pouty look it seemed, as she added.
