Glancing around at all the new faces, Rowena took them all in. Three men and two women, from what she could tell. One of them was a little more distanced from the group, holding something close to her chest. After a minute or so Rowena was able to safely identify whatever it was as a baby, the realization causing her smile to dim. There was a baby here. That put this group at an instant disadvantage. While the wrath of a mother protecting her child was all but wondrous, the child itself put them in a bad situation. Babies were by nature incredibly egotistical and loud, which would be fine if there weren't walkers eager to devour anything that caught their attention. Rowena was about to ask something about the baby when she saw a man reach out towards Themistocles. Her jaw clenched as she watched the hand extend without a word, fingers tightening their hold on the collar. But the dog didn't seem to mind the new thing that presented itself in front of his nose, carefully sniffing the hand. After having done so, the dog decided this human was alright and yawned, licking its chops before happily looking back up to his owner. Rowena relaxed, rubbing behind the dog's ears before glancing at the man then back to the other people in the room. She didn't say anything because technically the man hadn't touched the dog. Allowing Themistocles to familiarize himself with these people would be good, in case they were lost and needed to found, or just so the dog wouldn't be too tense.
Rowena watched as a man with light hair and light eyes seemed to have some kind of interaction with the mother. She heard him says something about him having a child and clicked her tongue in distaste, her first gesture of the day that indicated she wasn't always all smiles and playful jokes. "Do you now, love? Daddy-dearest only finding out now?" She murmured the words under her breath, finding there was a silent dislike building for the man now. Rowena was a little biased though, her own parents conceiving her in an unplanned moment, just like she now guessed this man and the woman had. She could be wrong though, so she didn't say anything horrid. Rather, she leaned back against a wall, Themistocles sitting at her feet.
