Quest Nine: Good to be home...ish

[littlemiss101]

[A. Action for household: Mae is looking around the destroyed house]

.....Oh wow. It feels more like home already. Wish they'd left me my pip-boy though.

[ B. Action: On the streets of Mayfield, oh dear lord the humanity ....wait what the hell is that woman doing? Ah yes the proud tradition of looting/scavenging. She's got a stick on her back, a knife on her side and is currently examining a pot before tossing it in her bag. If she see's you walking by she'll wave.]

Hey there! How's life in post-apocolyptia treating you?

[C. Checking up on people. Mae's making sure the people she knows are alright. Knocking on doors. Whose door? Your door. She doesn't know you? Well she does now.]

Hey, everyone all right in here?

I guess in times like this the response should be 'could be worse' but somehow I don't want to jinx anything.

[littlemiss101.livejournal.com]

True enough.

It is, what it is, I suppose.

[undying-heroism.livejournal.com]

Yeah, guess so.

You don't think this will last do you? I mean, I heard everything in this town reset somehow after a period of time.

[ Upon noticing the state of his house and the town around him, Golbez had immediately gone out to see what he could find out. And the answer is... not much, just that everything seems to have been bombed out overnight.

He turns when he hears a girl's voice calling, and is surprised that she doesn't seem fazed in the least. ] It could be better. And yourself?

[littlemiss101.livejournal.com]

Not too bad. It could be worse too.

Has this sort of thing happened to Mayfield before?

[Michael is securing what he can find, wrapping extra cloth around him and testing the weight of a chunk of staircase for swinging.]

Great, and it looks like they took my suit and Skeets, which should have easily survived this so that means something irritating is going to happen.

[Mae is sharpening a butter knife she found.]

Yeah. And considering, I'm still here but the more sturdy pip-boy that shouldn't be able to be removed from my arm isn't? Definitely the town messing with us.

[boostedfailure.livejournal.com]

Probably only will last a few days but still. I'm thinking that the grocery is going to get overrun with scavengers pretty quick so I was going to go to the hotel ruins to see if they have any food to hole up with. Then again, this is your area of expertise so have any plans?

[Also carrying a stick, this older man seems less bothered and more confused than anything else.

He waves to her as she approaches.]

Better than it should.

[littlemiss101.livejournal.com]

Well that's better then the alternative.

[change-seasons.livejournal.com]

People don't survive bomb like this.

Bomb like this spares no lives.

I am surprised to see one so cheerful out here.

[Don't mind Quinn as he walks around in a daze. Sure, he's played enough video games and seen enough movies just like this, but it's not qjuite the same now, is it?

Oh. It's you. He hasn't forgotten her from the dance. Well, no wonder she looks fine and dandy.]

H-Hey. I'm, uh... okay, I guess.

[littlemiss101.livejournal.com]

It's hard to get used to, I know.

[techno-mancer.livejournal.com]

Yeah. You ain't kiddin'. I... I don't know what I'm supposed to be doing.

[He sits down on a nearby stone, pulls out a rumpled cigarette and lights it up. Screw the quitting, this is the apocalypse.]

[At least one vulture is still around; a rather...absurdly large one. But she seems somewhat more subdued than actively hostile. Her shadow briefly crosses over the strange person moving amidst the rubble...then again, and again.

The hell raven is circling, to gain height. She couldn't fly straight anymore.]

[littlemiss101.livejournal.com]

[Watching the vulture fly.]

I was wondering when the giant animals were going to show up.

[idkmybfforin.livejournal.com]

[Or some new variety of supermutant, at least in Okuu's case. Especially since she's already kind of radioactive.

...then again hell ravens weren't even a native species to anywhere aboveground.]

Unyu?

[Who was that, talking? It had been so quiet before. Utsuho looks around for the source of the sound.]

[ooeeooahah]

Mae? You okay?

[littlemiss101.livejournal.com]

I'm fine. Just seeing how people are holding up. I know most people aren't used to living in a world like this.

[ooeeooahah]

I trained for it, hoped to never use it. Headed to the hospital, later.

[He...looks pretty shaken up.]

Heh...just fine...there's no reason I'd be bothered...I've been prepared for this my entire life!

[littlemiss101.livejournal.com]

[Aw....Mae nods. And acts as though she believes him.]

Do you have plans yet? I could use an extra set of eyes to help me scavenge.

Hey. You're probably doing better than me.

[littlemiss101.livejournal.com]

[Walks over.]

Maybe, but I've had practise.
