Caroline didn’t like anything with too many legs. By too many, she meant more than two.

She wasn’t an animal person, and she was even less of a reptile person.

To her disgust, cats always tried to sit on her, shedding their hair everywhere. Dogs were slightly better. At least they mostly ignored her.

Shutting Abby’s pet in the fridge had been a thoughtless act and, to be truthful, one she’d later regretted.

To make amends, she carried the creature out of Leek’s bunker.

The blood ruined her top, but that didn’t matter.

She’d done her best to make amends.

Bad Caroline, but at least she knew it. Nicely done.

[fredbassett]

By the end she was at least reasonably self-aware.

Caroline was a very complex character - she had the seeds of both good and evil in her, and at first she was feeding the worst side. I was rather surprised when she tried to atone for what she'd done.

Nice.

*nods* Me too.

Caroline isn't nice, but at least she tried to make amends. A little.

[fredbassett]

Better than nothing.

Caroline wasn't nice but she was in something she didn't understand. And she did try to help once she understood.

She definitely didn't look like a pet person, but it was nice to see her trying to atone for her actions in the end.

[fredbassett]

Agreed!
