Hey, how's everyone doing with the snow/cold?

If anyone needs some warmer clothes let me know. We've got enough to worry about without adding frostbite to the list.

Everyone do their best to stay safe.

Hey guys!

[Cal gives a little wave from a counter at his workshop. His other hand seems to be dangling a bit of string down to the floor, giving it a tug upwards now and then as it looks like something snags it.]

I know the weather's been getting cooler, and who knows when it'll start snowing. With some help from Tommy we've managed to get some batches of portable heaters fixed up, so if you need one you're welcome to come by the salvage shop and take one, or I can bring one out to you if that's easier too.

[He pauses to glance down towards the floor again, lips twitching in a faint smile.]

Also, anyone interested in taking in a tooka cat?

[This post probably comes after a very tense reunion, but the surly mood isn't actually from the fallout.]

I guess I'm back now, since that's a fucking thing that happens here. I thought more time would have passed here, but apparently I didn't even miss Christmas. The Agrii strike me as more into Mummers than Caroling, though.

[You're forgiven if you don't place him at first. His hair is buzzed close to his skull, and all that softness has been hollowed out. Everything about him is a warning, like bright stripes on a snake. He wears a worn-in leather jacket, with a fleur-de-lis or maybe just talons crawling up against his neck above his collar. He has more muscle on him now than he did before, a couple inches in height though that's hard to tell by video. The blue eyes are the only thing that's the same, but they sit differently in his face-- sharp and cold, piercing like a winter storm.

There is a juvenile raven that is not appearing in this video, as Ronan doesn't want her to hear his bad language. But Chainsaw is bright-eyed and inquisitive, and doesn't seem to approve of her exclusion. Namely, she's resorted to crying kerah in her rather un-melodic raven's voice, rather like a child demanding their parents' attention.]


But, whatever. I am going to deal with this bullshit by choosing to go get shitfaced. As they say: optimum est pati quod emendare non possis.

[Which means "it is best to endure what you can't change", for everyone with helpful translations to Ronan's intentionally opaque Latin quotations.]

And if any of you assholes want to join me-- Well, invitation's open, but no nerds allowed. Maybe we can set shit on fire and call it a party.

[He grins before ending the feed, but it's a flash of teeth and it feels almost more like a threat -- but then everything about Ronan seems like that now. He can indeed be found at the bar, or around Temba with either a dreamt bottle of whiskey or just bad ideas, depending on when you catch him.]

[The feed shows a skinny redhead who is somehow even paler than usual - his skin is parchment white, with deep dark pouches under his eyes. His curls are matted.

Yeah, he looks like shit.]


Uhm. Hi. Hi, uh. It's Kyle. Uhm.

I. Uh. Is. Is everybody okay? I hope you're all okay. Uhm. I'm...

[His face crumples.] I'm not. I'm not okay, I'm SO not okay.

Someone has left a baby outside.

It is sitting just in front of the door to a darkened office building in the Northwest side of the city. One frequented by Drake Riley. It can't be any bigger than a newborn, and is swaddled tightly in a furry, rainbow-coloured blanket that has bulbous, stuffed paw tassels hanging from the corners with fuzzy, pink toe beans. It is very patient with this situation, doesn't move or make a noise.

Should you investigate, you will find the blanket is actually wrapped around what feels a lot like a hot water bottle, warm to the touch and with a firm jelly-like give. It is translucently purple, and is largely bean shaped. Don't poke or squeeze it too hard! Its casing looks about as delicate as the film on boiled milk. These are all important baby qualities, aren't they?

Pinned to the blanket with a comically sized diaper pin is a note:

Rye Lee
Rye Lee no care. Rye Lee no sleep.
New Rye Lee must care. Care full four hole wick.
Agrii care Rye Lee and New Rye Lee. In poor tent rye salt.

[ Cobb is walking through the woods outside Temba. Given the angle of the sun in the background he's walking back to town after apparently doing some sort of task out in the wilds. ]

Anyone got some bones lyin' around? [ He grins at the camera because the question is ridiculous. ] Preferably a rib bone but I'll take any large bones. Thought I might find some from the glownies I slaughtered but I can't remember where I buried 'em.

[ He shrugs jostling the camera. ]

If you got some, I just need one. But don't trouble yourselves over findin' me something. I'll make due.

Another day, another installment of random thoughts from me. Also on communication, so I guess that's a theme?

Who here knows sign languages? [He's thinking of a certain fellow Jedi padawan who clearly understands a lot of what is being said, but doesn't talk out loud. And also wondering if sign language gets 'translated' like verbal and written language mostly do.]

I know...a few signs. Mostly as communication in battle. I'm actually not entirely sure what system they come from, or even if they are all from the same system.

[BACK IN TEMBA: o hi it's an Echo and the background's kind of bouncing around-]

-I have a question.

How many kids do we have in Temba right now?



[OOC:Kind of backdating this a few days, end of July, etc.]

[ Cobb's voice comes off camera because the image in the video is a speeder. He has yet to wash the Agrii symbol off it. The pink clashes with the yellow a little bit. It's parked outside the hangar, engine off so it's not spinning. Just hovering a few inches off the ground like speeder do. ]

Well. It seems the Agrii left me a gift. This beauty is mine from back home. Gonna clean that graffitti off. I built her myself. She's a modified 620C podracing engine I found in a junkyard in Mos Espa years ago and she's served me well. Don't know why she's here but I don't really care.

[ Finally, he turns the camera back to himself. Cobb's a little beat up. His face has healing bruises and cuts. Something happened but it hasn't dampened his joy any. ]

Those of you who wanted to build your own speeder, I'll let you take a look at mine. I can tell you how I built her. Not sure how technical I can get but I'll do my best.

Those of you who might need to get somewhere fast and far, riding with two is not comfortable but I've done it before. Might be possible to take folks around town. Don't think I can get her to the new town but maybe. Gotta be careful with fuel around here, you know. Might be worth trying.

If you hear me riding around later today, don't worry about it. Just stretching her legs.

Hey.

[There was a skinny eighteen-year-old, pale, dark-haired, with white-rimmed sunglasses obscuring half of his face. It didn't matter that he was currently indoors; he wore those sunglasses everywhere.]

Alright, so, I've been here a little while. Felt it was time to reach out since we're all stuck here.

I'm assuming no one knows any way to get home. Am I right?

[He waved a hand dismissively; he didn't really care right now about being stuck here.]

Forget about that. What do you all do for fun around here when you're not rebuilding or whatever? It doesn't look like this place is built for street racing, so that kind of ruins option number one for me. Is there at least alcohol here?

Seems like I'm going to need some new hobby ideas.

[He moved to turn the video off but remembered one last thing.]

Oh, before I forget, the name's Kavinsky.
[personal profile] on_repeat
[It starts with a short sigh and the shake of a head.]

We've just received the information and already...Like herding tookas...

[Despite the vocal filter, he sounds mildly annoyed as he tosses a stick aside. Ignore the small piles of rubble and rock with lines drawn around them in the background. That's not important right now. It's Bizness.]

Before anyone else does anything, I suggest we all take the precautions necessary like organizing other groups to see who wants to go an' who's staying in Temba.

Because having an actual plan in case of emergency is preferable.
[personal profile] doubled_speed
Okay. So.

[Here, enjoy a Tommy on the screen chewing on his nail. Just a little. Anxiety? Nah. Not him. Don't even suggest it.]

I know a lot of people hated what happened with the magic world shit. But I liked knowing engineering shit. And I mean the real skills. It was fun. And I kinda wanna learn more, but not the Agrii stuff. So I'm looking for a few people to help me learn more of that shit.

So, like, who knows some shit about electrical engineering from back in their world?

Before anyone throws Tony's name out, I know. I already help out around his forge sometimes when there are projects that aren't really beyond my level. He's great to watch, but sometimes you gotta learn the basics to, so you don't hurt yourself. And add in who and what I am and then you've got lots of stupid questions that come to me fast that asking him would just ruin his focus on the work and like fuck if we need that.

So is there anyone here, other than Fauxsterio and that dumb shit who doesn't understand the concept of a beach day, who knows a lot about working with electronics? And without having taken the engineering datapoint or some shit?

Oh, and before anyone asks, no this doesn't mean I'm not doing the greenhouse anymore. I have an impossible number of hours in a day to work with compared to most people. It's more that people who can actually cook are doing most of the diner stuff now and I can actually seriously learn.

[ Cobb is sweaty and a little dirty, sitting outside one of the more rundown houses. He wipes at his face with a soft green bandana instead of his usual red one. ]

Well, folks, even with that interruption, I've got three houses ready for livin'. They've got room enough for two folks comfortably. Three if two of those people are real close. [ He winks at the camera. ] They've got running water, electricity, and I cleaned up the outside a little so maybe some gardens can grow?

[ He shrugs as he resettles the bandana around his neck. ]

I don't know how we'll figure out who lives where. I know Starling's expressed an interest in living in one. So, that's one place claimed but she also said she'd be willin' to share. Anyone else wants one I guess we'll work those details out here.

Give me another month and I'll probably have a few more. So, if you don't get one now don't worry. There's more. And if there's a place you want help fixin' up when I'm done with this I'd be happy to help.

[Quill's lounging in the curve of a ruin, his feet up on a protruding piece of rock, a drink in one hand as he holds his comm device with the other]

Hey, listen, I know you're all really busy with your Geraldo versus Donahue thing, and that Southern lady's doing her best to be Sally Jesse without the shoulder pads? But I'm gettin' real tired of the daytime talk show, and there's nothing else on here except maybe knockoff Cheers. And your robot Sam doesn't even have a Diane, so it's pretty awful.

I touched that glowy thing in the middle of town and it put some weeeeeeird-ass junk in my head, which, hey, not the first time I touched a magic rock and it did stuff? But I'd love a little more to go on than that.

When you're not busy.

[ And this is Jon appearing on your network feed, actually outside of his library and in all likelihood enjoying a nice evening at the open air. ]

Good evening, Temba.

I... I mean. We don't need more apologies, and yet I feel like I owe quite a few. Things happened. I hurt people both physically and verbally and I'm sorry, but...

...it happened.

[ He falls silent, eyes dropping for a moment. Then he clears his throat and looks back up and over his screen. ]

The beach here is gorgeous. Have been here a few times now and- I think it would be nice to- To come together. Here. Have a nice day and enjoy- uh, well. The beach. The water. Find some time to just... Talk. Maybe... Have fun...

I... I will organize something.

[ Is he awkwardly announcing a beach party? Oh, you bet he is. ]
