JoJo clasp the keys with both hands awkwardly, to his surprise he didn't drop them. He looked to his superior with wondrous eyes, clutching the keys for dear life. Quickly nodding to the return orders, he didn't think it would take his till lunch to grab a couple of rain barrels. Still the gravity of the task was not lost on the young Janitor, those keys wouldn't leave his hands till they were given back. As quickly as they had approached the man they were on their back on their way to the storage. Their footsteps still lightly squishing and squashing with each foot fall, leaving a slight trail of soggy footprints in the Lobby Proper.
It didn't take them long to reach the door to the storage, making quick use of the keys. The storage room was bigger than JoJo expected, as it was the first time he had actually been on the inside. There were about twenty or so barrels, all varying sizes. "Lets grab the larger ones, we will just stack them outside the room. That way we aren't going back and forth the whole time, and the sooner you can get those keys back to Marcus." Michael's tone neutral and gruff, the cigarette still hanging from his lips.
After taking as many of the larger barrels from the room- about nine or ten- and stacking them right outside the door. Locking the doors back up, JoJo would run back to the Gun Lockers to return the keys. He thanked Marcus for letting him borrow them and quickly headed back to the storage to grab the barrels with Michael. It would be just getting into lunch by the time they had filled all the barrels, using a dolly to get some of them to the first floor garden. Once the last of the Barrels were brought upstairs, the two Janitors looked like they were about to collapse. It had been a long day, and it was only just the morning.

Xander recalled the scene of the morning to the best of his ability to Dorian, speaking as clear as he could. Once dismissed he would take his leave to go finish packing for the up coming Run. Xander was sure Dorian had everything covered from there, if he was needed for anything further he would answer any call. He would try to talk to Selene before he left to his room, try to gauge how she was handling the whole morning.
"U-uh. Is there anything you been wanting from the Runners? Anything in particular that you would like looked for?" Still going on about the Run, he was really bad with words, and emotions. It had been so long since he used them, it was difficult opening up still. Even if just a normal conversation with someone, it was a lot easier to talk about Tasks, orders, and Events. Hopefully living at the Settlement would be enough to open himself up, as he and everyone got to know each other.
