Audio Diary 2: Word on the Street

Feb 19, 2010 21:31

Can't be the perfect time for settling, but is it ever? Looks like this whole town's jumpy down each other's throats over The Valentine Killer...that's what they'd be calling it 'cross the evening headlines, if this place had a printing press. I'll be sticking close to Eleanor, thank you kindly. No way I'm losing her again so soon.

A strange bunch ( Read more... )

the valentine's killer, blues inspiration, the lux, piano tuning

Strange bunch of people is right.
It's nice though. Variety is always good.

Glad to hear you getting that old piano back in order. Music would be a nice touch.

Feels nice. People are a little less noodley round the head, without all the splicin'.

To sooth the savage monsters among us? Hah...we'll see, we'll see. It's been so long since I've sang for any audience.

It's quieter here, too. Not the kind of place I'd expect myself to settle down, but nice.

And I'm sure everyone would love to hear you sing.

Where would any of us ever hope to settle down? It's not the worst of nightmares, maybe. But I've lived in the Hoovervilles, and in the Drop. World's End can't be too much harder living.

Don't know.

It hasn't been much harder so far, in my opinion.
I'm a tad worried about the lack of ADAM, though.

Eventually I might be in some trouble.

Can you even cut the stuff, with how they made you, Delta-man?

I never touched the plasmids, myself. Never did care for the idea. Not for the little girls, or the whole dirty business...not to put penny more in Fontaine's pocket, then Ryan's, than we had to. And after I'd seen the people spliced, so low and unhappy with what they'd become? Well, this here body was broken enough.

I don't think I can just stop.
I have to be dependent on that horrible stuff now, from everything.

I figured that you've never spliced. I remember when I saw you, nothing like the Splicers.

Maybe Eleanor's fixin' on a solution?

...or maybe I just never did get over squirmishness about needles.

She's trying. I have faith that she'll find a way.

I've never been too fond of needles, myself. You didn't miss much. A hand full of flame isn't worth the addiction.

I have full faith in her too.

Good.

She's a very capable young woman, now.

Like we'd always hoped she would be.

This still feels like a strange dream...

I know.

I thought I was hallucinating at first.

Dreams don't last this long, though. You always wake up.

Then we'll have to try and make the best we can of things.

That's what I'm used to doing.
