revivalproject | Back to the Diner

WHO: Radley and everyone
WHERE: Temba
WHAT: Getting food supplies, making food
WHEN: Right after getting back up
WARNINGS: None

1. Diner

Radley is so relieved to be back on the surface and relieved that the city is relatively safe. He immediately goes to the diner to inspect things there and bring back the utensils he had taken. He starts making a list of everything he wants to get back in stock as quickly as possible. After he gets what he wants, he'll probably be there way into the night, so happy to be back where he feels he belongs while he's here.

2. Replicator

Radley has to come here for some of what he wants. He decides to start small and prays that the replicator is working properly even after the eruption.

"Hopefully I won't get peanut butter everything," he mutters to himself and anyone in hearing range.

3. Greenhouse

Radley comes here to gather plants. He stays alert, examining everything and looking to see if anyone else is here too. He's relieved to see everything's been watered. He's sure Tommy will be happy too.

There's so much to do at the hospital. Putting things to rights, reorganizing rooms, returning her supplies where they belonged, cleaning up her little apartment in the distant corner. Instead Tae was here.

Instead she was coming into the Diner with a bit of a yawn, looking around. This place at least seemed intact.

"Hello?" she calls out softly. Maybe someone is around and knows their way around this place?

Radley comes out of the kitchen with a smile. “Hey!” He looks very happy to be back.

And here is Tae, so relieved to see him too.

"Hey," she says happily. "Radley. A pleasure to see you. Seems you got started back in rather quickly."

"Well, I figured people would be wanting to eat," Radley says. "It was a long walk back up here. And now I'll have access to making better meals again."

"Indeed," she says with a smile. "I don't suppose I can beg for rice in some manner."

A taste of home she doesn't expect she's going to get.

"Or just some tea."

"Tea I can do," Radley says. "I still have to get more rice."

He sets about making the tea and soon brings it. "Here you go!"

"Thank you, as ever," she says, smiling at the tea. Once it's in hand she takes a deep breath of it.

"Tell me I'm not the only one shocked we didn't get massively Pompeii'd here.

"Sure."

He nods. "I was afraid we'd come back to nothing. A few places got hit harder, but overall it looks like we can rebuild without too much trouble."

Hopefully.

It was a reasonable fear. That they really had maintained anything was more shocking. Even with alien support and promises to help them.

"We just need to know someone who can help guide that. I don't know how to build."

"I can build to a certain extent. I can put up walls, but I'm not good at putting in plumbing or electricity. I helped a lot with building up the town back home," Radley says. "One of my friends did a lot of the HVAC stuff."

Plumbing and electricity and all of the rest was so very well beyond Tae of course. NOthing to be done for it.

"Perhaps you picked something up by watching?"

"Maybe," Radley muses. "But I'd still rather trust it to everyone who fixed up the showers underground."

Well that would make a lot of sense. Tae laughs and raises her tea cup as if in toast.

"That makes the most sense to me as well."

Radley smirks. "I'd be happy to help patch up the walls, though," he says.

Radley's not the only one to make a visit to the diner. After all that time underground, Link is most definitely itching to eat something other than stew.

He hasn't got any meat - so far, he's yet to find any game he could hunt - but he's made a visit to the Greenhouse, and collected some fruit and vegetables. Maybe he could make a nice pie, or some simmered vegetables. Maybe something sweet, that he can share with Zelda.

Arms full of ingredients, he swifts his hold so he can give Radley an awkward little wave as he comes into the kitchen.

"I'd offer the same, but my fingers," she says, wiggling the long, delicate things. "I'd hate to get something on them."

Which of course isn't her actual complaint, but she smiles as she sips her tea.

"Honestly, there's so much restoration that needs to happen at the hospital I don't know when I'll be free. Guess it's lucky I live there."

Radley is amused at the load, but happy for company.

"Hi," he greets. "What are you planning to make?"

Still smirking, Radley nods. "Oh, of course." He truthfully hates manual labor and only does it in general if he's really needed ... or if he feels like he is. But that's often if there's disaster clean-up or building a town.

He frowns at this. "Really? It was hit hard?"

"A lot of stuff disordered and stuff needs evaluated for disposal," she says with a sigh. "The waiting room is mostly okay. But you have to be sure with a hospital which means I need to go back through to double check things."

Radley nods. "It sounds like a big job."

"Yeah, and as much as I love Albert, I doubt he is going to be as helpful in this. He's seemed... on edge."

Which she can't explain but can understand.

"... Yeah, I noticed that."

Radley tries to avoid the guy whenever possible.

"It's probably surprising we're not all on edge like that, after the last few months we've had."

Really, why does everyone dislike him? He's such a darling!

"Yes, it really is a thing. I'm hoping for some nice peace and quiet for recovery. You've been here a while. How likely is that?"

Radley doesn't even know the terrible things Wesker has done, but still thinks the guy is government back home and that staying out of his way is wise. He gets a big "government cover-up" vibe from him after their brief interactions.

"... Kind of likely. We've had some periods of several weeks of peace. Then something happens that turns everything upsidedown again."

He's done terrible things? Tae hasn't noticed that. And she definitely hasn't paired him with government in her mind. Virologists are just like that.

"Several weeks?" she says, sounding less than impressed. In fact, she sounds annoyed. How is she supposed to keep people fit and healthy, much less do research, in these conditions?

"Hardly seems like they are helping us help them."
