network | @b8d8l8k3 | yes her handle is gibberish leave me alone
WHO: little ray of pitch black, Octavia Blake
WHAT: mass text (SENT INDIVIDUALLY TO EVERYONE OK DONT PICK ON ME)
WHERE: your Nokia or whatever
WHEN: sent somewhere pre-event, but feel free to answer during.
if we're all gonna make it here, we have to help each other out. not just ask stupid questions about shadows and liquor.
[ FULL OFFENSE ]
so sound off. say what you're good at or can do to help. or whatever you've learned about this place.
assholes, screw off. you know who you are.
i'll start. i'm octavia. [ She feels relatively confident giving her full name now that she knows nobody from home is going to show up and try to kill her. Hopefully. ] i was the war chief's second. and i managed to survive on earth after some of your descendants nuked it, so there's that.
oh, and if you find any medicine, give it to ruth.

( because you sure as hell couldn't tell that from his handle. )
i'm a mechanic but i don't know if anything actually runs here. haven't found anything yet but if there are parts around, i could fix something into working order.
i managed to survive east los angeles.
( and there was the whole demon thing. )
no medicine that i've seen. bandages, though. some antiseptic. rocks. lots of rocks.
no subject
like you work on rocket ships?
[ the only mechanic she ever knew worked in zero-g... ]
no subject
cars. trucks. vehicles. they didn't really give me access to rocket ships where i come from.
i could probably learn a rocket ship if i had the time.
no subject
[ Well, now she feels stupid. ]
that's still good to know. at least someone here knows their way around an engine.
what exactly does 'surviving east los angeles' take?

@xxDARK_STARxx
Thanks for looking out for her. [ He's not sure it'll do any good, ultimately—what kind of medicine even is there here? what side effects might it have?—but he appreciates the effort. Appreciates knowing other people care. ]
no subject
i'm not.
[ She kinda is, but shut up!!! ]
i just don't want to hear about her nosebleeds forever.
no subject
That says more about you than the rest of it.
What have you learned about this place? What do you think it'll take to survive?
no subject
no animals.
whatever food we find will run out eventually.

@DR_DOGFISH (i was just thinking how much i needed more octavia & will tagging)
[ Technically, since he isn't hearing her voice again, and since he only got the name 'O' from her that first time, Will stands a heavy chance at not recognizing her.
It's just that she left a bit of an impression, and Will's good at putting two and two together. ]
u got it dude!!
that's me
no subject
you've been worried about group survival since the start. now i see where that instinct came from.
i used to be a homicide detective before i worked in forensics for the fbi. most of what i do is more relevant to figuring out WHY something brought us here and how to...negotiate with it, not how to survive outside.
especially since there's nothing to fish or hunt, here.
i think something brought us here consciously, and maybe not at random. and i think we can interact with it, we just need to find out how. [ Infodump much? Will's been able to see the other conversations here, though, and this awareness that they can see others' posts means he suddenly wants to share everything he can, for all of them to see. Like Octavia — he thinks they've got a better chance of survival as a group.
He just might have different concerns about how that's going to get accomplished. ]

back up.
what's fbi?

@4tlas_shrugg3d
What kind of medicine does Ruth need?
no subject
said her head hurts and her nose was bleeding. and that time was making her sick, whatever that means. sounded bad.
so whatever you'd use for that.
no subject
I think she might need actual medical attention. Not just an aspirin.

@XXSK3LLYXX
I'm good at killing, strategy, and being in charge of an army. And both hnefatafl and chess, but I have yet to find a board here.
What's 'nuked'?
no subject
they destroyed everything and killed almost everyone and screwed life up for all of us.

[It's becoming apparent how large of a gap there is between from when Ivar is from and everyone else in this place.]
Sounds like Ragnarok. The end of the world.
