  • Cinch, Wisher seems a little disappointed too, truth be told. This place is like her family, though, and uprooting with someone she just met is certainly out of the question. She follows your nod over to Clarity, then back to you. She nods enthusias…
  • Thirds, by the time you get up there, the rooftop is empty — but a second arrow comes speeding into the door beside your head, just narrowly missing your face. The shot was dead on, which means you know roughly where they are — but then, they know w…
  • Rue, let's split you off into your own thread, here.
  • The greenery in the field is getting pretty high, but you can see some rusted rooftops just over the budding bushes. First one, then three more, then maybe 10 others — and that's what you can see. Further in the distance, if you stand on your tippy-…
  • Cinch, Wisher seems conflicted... She looks over to your big Jeep on the outskirts of the camp, and over to her grandfather checking the perimeter. Her smile drops to a frown, and she shakes her head. "No... No, I can't leave grampa Bill. There ain'…
  • Rue, Harrow smiles wildly when you turn your attention to her. "Oh, I think you're gunna like what I have to offer, Rue..." But then you're kissing her, and then you're touching... I hope it was fun. When do you usually wake up in the morning, Rue?…
  • Clarity, Go here. Cinch, they're a small group, so cleanup is relatively quick. Most of them are so exhausted they don't even bother setting up a night watch, but you do spot Bill checking the perimeter, and fiddling with some stuff before coming b…
  • Rue, that's a sad story... Hope it didn't kill the mood though. The haze of the maelstrom leaves the room, and you're back in the moment. Harrow is right into this, and Foster's coming close to sealing the deal himself. Should we fade to black? Or …
  • Thirds, everything's going according to plan. You bolt for the alleyway at full tilt, and you can practically feel the bugger bearing down on you. The problem is, when you turn the corner, there's a metal gate blocking your egress... You aim to kick…
  • Act Under Fire to cross the distance, Thirds.
  • The truck squeals loudly as Matilda slams her foot on the brakes, and you're forced into the back end of the truck as it slows to a stop. The streets are silent, with the exception of the idling truck. Matilda yells back into the box of the truck. "…
  • Rue, It isn't long before the smell of freshly burnt gunpowder, and peaty scotch fill the room. Letting the maelstrom in, as you do, you can feel that something is off; and sure enough, Chant's voice whispers little nothings in your ear. She's just …
  • Cinch, Wisher looks around for something that might resemble a spare blanket, but then picks up on your true meaning and says, "Uh... C'mere. I'll share mine." The tone in her voice is totally platonic. You can tell she's starting to like the idea o…
  • Rue, Foster is following your lead, and he's not being violent or anything — just a little rough. You know how it is. Typical young guy, thinking he's the top dog. That look in his eyes though, it almost feels like he doesn't really believe it. That…
  • Clarity, Bill nods, "Much obliged... If you're lookin' for more of that there drink I found — the cola — just lemme know. I'll bring you out some time."
  • Rue, Harrow smirks and follows Foster into the room. She shuts the door behind her, and perches near the table off to the side. As tempting an offer as it sounds to join in, you get the impression she's above sleeping with her brother. She'd sleep w…
  • Both, most people here sleep on decade old bedrolls, or makeshift beds. You wake up naturally to the sun hanging low in the morning sky. Bill spots that you're both awake, and comes over... He offers you both a small potato from the communal garden.…
  • Thirds, as far as you can tell, there's only the one person here... I mean, if there were more, why would they bother hitting you? They'd be trying to immobilize the truck, right? If you had to guess, he's probably up on that roof to the west of you…
  • Rue, The night presses on, and eventually you hear Harrow announce, "looks like we should pack it in.. I'll see you boys later!" It takes them a little while to get up to your room. Foster comes in first with Harrow gently pushing him in from behi…
  • It feels to me like this evening gradually comes to a close. Where did you people end up spending the night?
  • Sounds like you're reading the Sitch Thirds. Hit the dice.
  • Mimi is in the passenger seat when you lean down. He's got his eyes peeled when you start talking, but you can tell he doesn't understand what you said... "Whadaya mean? You sayin' the truck's gunna break down again?" That's when an arrow comes flyi…
  • Cinch, are Clarity's words always this moving to you?
  • Rue, you can see wheels turning in Foster's head. He smirks back at you, and nods in agreement. "I reckon we will..." Harrow just smirks and shakes her head, then goes back to telling stories about her travels. Who left for bed first, Rue? You, or …
  • Clarity, go ahead and roll that Visionary. Bill seems moved by your words — perhaps not enough to do anything, given that he's got these people to look after, but he's certainly sympathetic to your cause. He pats you on the back, and answers, "y'kn…
  • Mimi smirks when you shrug his hand off. He was looking for a reaction, and he got it. Matilda lets you climb up onto the roof, and motions for Big Ed and Mimi to follow. Mimi was in the car when Big Ed came up to the driver-side window and asked Ma…
  • Rue, Foster smirks when you offer up a place to stay. Even if that is what he heard, it's not exactly like you're hard to look at or anything... Understatement of the year, perhaps. Harrow answers for him though, "hell yeah! Sounds sweet!" She spots…
  • Mimi doesn't care that you're ignoring him. Matilda comes around once you've got the truck running and eyes you up and down when you ask what she's got that you can carry. "You can have a look once we're out of here. I don't want this piece of shit …
  • Cinch, Bill puts his arm around your shoulder and points Wisher over to the bird you just sniped. "Wisher, dear... Why don't you go pluck that bird while I bring our new friends back to camp?" He looks down at you, "C'mon folks... We got us some cel…
  • Rue, Harrow shakes her head, "a bit of both, actually. We're looking for food and stuff in exchange for odd jobs. Moving on when the well dries up... A few travelers going through the Pough said scavs made a decent living down here... We figured we'…
