SO LIKE. THIS IS SUPER LATE .________. do you mind? smokesinspace July 8 2011, 00:09:17 UTC

[just happened to be "driving" by on one of his Skyrunners on a supply run when he passed by.]

Need help?

[might as well. he recognized her from before and had stuff he could at least give her or something.]

smokesinspace July 14 2011, 04:31:29 UTC

[he doesn't answer for a moment as he picks up a few small things and pulling out some of the debris.]

Just stared at the sky one day and thought, "Hell, wonder what the view is like up there."

Aviation didn't exist back then, so no one really thought much about it.

meanttobemama July 14 2011, 04:43:21 UTC

Oh? So you're really the pioneer of flight, then. That's pretty impression.

[ Stepping back, hands on hips, to survey the scene and look around for more salvageable things ]

smokesinspace July 14 2011, 06:36:14 UTC

Somethin' like that. Guess someone had to get around to it. Lucky bastard just happened to be me.

[except voice sounded more sarcastic than anything else. along with a few grunts because he was pulling a rather large piece of debris out before dusting his hands off.]

So now what? Got a place to live 'til they get this place fixed up?

meanttobemama July 14 2011, 20:14:18 UTC

[ Shakes head ]

I haven't been here that long, so I'm not too familiar with the place. You got any suggestions?

smokesinspace July 14 2011, 20:36:31 UTC

Everythin's wrecked so pretty much slim pickin's.

[smokes thoughtfully.]

There are some tents and safe houses available if they ain't all taken already. Probably some other places around here.

meanttobemama July 15 2011, 00:17:16 UTC

Yes, I'm sure even those who've been here a while probably are having a hard time finding somewhere to stay.

[ Glancing back up at the cottage ]

That was some flood, though... Never seen one that big or powerful before.

smokesinspace July 15 2011, 00:33:36 UTC

Don't think any of us have. Makes you wonder what else could happen.

meanttobemama July 15 2011, 03:07:04 UTC

Best be on our guards, then. It's a good thing not many people were really hurt in this flood, but we might not be as lucky next time.

smokesinspace July 15 2011, 07:35:17 UTC

Even if we knew we probably wouldn't be able to do jack shit about it. Place got a mind of its own if you ask me.

meanttobemama July 16 2011, 04:37:29 UTC

That's for sure. I don't think anyone even saw the flood coming.

[ Pause ] Have you been here long?

smokesinspace July 16 2011, 06:32:20 UTC

Too long.

[a beat.]

Guess around a year and a half.

meanttobemama July 17 2011, 18:16:54 UTC

Really? That is far too long to be away from home.

smokesinspace July 18 2011, 06:42:58 UTC

Tellin' me. Heard of some folks who've stayed longer, though. Dunno if they're still around.

meanttobemama July 18 2011, 08:44:02 UTC

[ A pause ]

I wonder how the people back home are dealing with our disappearances...

smokesinspace July 19 2011, 00:17:05 UTC

They aren't.

Far as they're concerned, we ain't missin'.
