[Dear residents of Promenade, there is a new guy in town. If you're out and about during the early evening, along one particular street in the eastern part of the city, you might see this rambling slowly past you
( Read more... )
[ Despite -- or perhaps because of -- the fact that she had been dead a few days earlier and was still deaf because of it, Rebecca is sitting outside, fiddling with her headphones. She can't hear any of the music from it, but having them with her makes her feel more comfortable.
Then a car with no driver passed by and sat still. ]
Huh. Wonder if that's a friend of Ratchet and Arcee.
[ Getting up, Rebecca brushes off her pants before approaching. ]
Because, a driver-less car talking back to a person on the street would just be wierd, wouldn' it? Even if the car wasn't really a car and this wasn't any normal human city on earth.
Jazz was watching you though. Watching and wondering what would you do next.]
Heh, guess so. Not that I'm going to try telling him that.
I guess? I'd rather not try it, though; the guards will flip out and next thing I know I'll be stuck in the Unnatural. I'll stick to dreaming up ice cream.
The Unnatural is some... science-magic-experiment-voodoo place. I guess it makes people with powers lose them and makes people who don't have them feel really sick.
It's also where they revive you if you die here. The problem is that the head scientists likes to torture people.
Huh. Dream world or not, it's not a perfect one if it's got a place like this. Then again, Ah wasn't expecting much fer an afterlife so Ah guess this'll havta do.

Eh, Ah'll be alright. Ah think. As soon as docbot gets here.

Nice to meet you, too.
Docbot? You mean Ratchet?
[ He probably won't like the fact that she's outside when she should be resting, but... oh well. ]

Yup, that's him. He's decked out in this chartreuse colour. Can't miss 'im.

Heh, yeah, I've met him. I think he'll start yelling if he realizes I'm outside when "You should be resting, Rebecca", though.
You missed some... uh, 'excitement'.

What kind of excitement? Ah just got here from a battle mahself.

Uh, well, there was an escaped murderer who started dreaming up monsters, including a giant dragon.
[ A giant dragon that ate her, but she'll leave that out. ]

Sounds like nasty business. So...theoretically we could all dream up monsters too, right?

Ah don't think Ah will either. What's the Unnatural?
