⚘ A Brief History
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
I've been at this a long time and when I say a long time I mean a long long damn time. I started out with table top, ADnD, back in the 80's, then dived into others: Nightlife, Mage the Ascension, Shadow Run, HoL, etc. Moved onto Online in the 90's. I've been running various incarnations of a single RP group for twenty years now. Worked helping setting up, building, and/or admining/modding various RP forums over the years: Adventure Quest, Priston Tales, War Gods, etc. It's been a long road filled with ups and downs. I'm an evil GM, you've been warned.

Outside of RP, I am a mom. Yup, I've reproduced and there are little Lady A's running around plotting their own take over of the world. I am a published author and once upon a time an award winning poet. I've done a lot in my life. I haven't done as much as I would like. I've grown a lot. I have a lot more growing to do. I love to cook, baker by trade currently. I went to university and majored in Mathematics. I've programmed websites, worked as a model, worked as a 3d modeler. Shit, I even used to dance. And have been known to sing a bit. Jack of all trades. Master of like 3, lol.


⚘ Looking Inside
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
This is where I go into my personality. In the past I would normally make some self deprecating remark about how I am a bitch of a GM, pushing my rpers as hard as I push myself and so forth. Not anymore. People change, or perhaps they just come into their own. This can happen at any age. More than that it can happen several times over the course of your life as you discover and rediscover yourself. Everything happens for a reason, usually that reason is ones owns actions. Or inaction's. Right now, I am in a better place than I can remember being in the longest time. I am happy and at peace. I have no regrets. Maybe I should but I don't. I plan on keeping this peace I have found, I went far too long without it.

Currently I am enjoying several things. Some are things I have enjoyed most of my life: Coffee, chocolate, bacon, M*A*S*H. One isn't something I have enjoyed since I was seventeen: being clean and free of poisons in my system. It is beyond description and I love it: One-hundred and twenty days and counting. Music taste is shifting to more mood oriented than anything, strange I am finding a lot of newer Country I am enjoying and I have NEVER liked country. Watching things like Lark Rise to Candleford and being hooked to the point of reading the trilogy. Recently added yoga to my workouts and all I can say is, "Fuckmaste: the fucked up in me accepts the fucked up in you."

Camp Mexico Beach (General Streets): Things are as they were: calm, hot, kids playing in the streets. The majority of traffic is heading into the Mess Hall at this time, seems this is peak time for the dinner meal. Nikki and Amelia will have no problem getting to Distillation this round.

Aeron stepped around the building and headed towards the Mess Hall. "Thank you Alexander, very much. I don't want to worry some right now. Everyone needs a bit of happiness to get through these days," he said as he leaned on his cane a little less. It seemed that the pipe helped with the pain and made him lean less. Thankfully he didn't look plastered but he felt it. The stuff they had was pretty good but that was to be expected as they had several people in camp that knew what they were doing when it came to drugs and growing plants.

"The menu should be the same as lunch. We try to use everything up before moving to a new menu. So we may have the same lunch and dinner for several days as we used the fish. Breakfast is the only menu that changes daily, helps to start out the day better if people are not stuck with the same thing at the start of every morning," he said with a smile. He was older so he still lived by the old adage that breakfast was the most important meal of the day. Granted these days every meal was the most important.

The General started laughing and had to stop before they entered the mess hall. "Feisty? Why yes she is that. A cougar I believe is what some call her. She is sweet though, just a bit brazen," he said blowing out the laughter. Shaking his head. "There are stories, that may or may not make you blush, all from her of course," he added before starting to walk again. Holding open the door to the Mess Hall he waited for Alexander. "After you."

Mess Hall (C): DoLittle chuckled a bit. "No, well yes. We had a problem with that new kid that came in with the dog. He's been hauled off to jail and there's a court-martial coming up. I got enough in the office right now and needed someone to watch the dog. Nikki did well with her during the guys quarantine so put her with Nikki, she said she would talk to you soon as she could. Guess she hasn't had a chance yet," DoLittle said in passing as she took her tray and had it filled up with her dinner for the evening. She chuckled a bit. "And no, she hasn't caught the mouse yet. You know if she does she's gonna keep it. I think she likes that little rodent," she laughed.

Cook shook her head as DoLittle talked to Lisa. "Nothing that hasn't been calmed by now. Just a long day. Sorry, funeral details always put us a bit stretched thin is all," she said before making sure the line kept moving. It was rush hour for them.

DoLittle looked over to Manny and chuckled. "Dentist? Nice, I mean we had one kid here that was fresh out of school but best he could do was pulling a tooth. I mean could have been worse but be nice to have a real dentist and not the medical and me trying to piece meal it together from text books," she said before turning. "You two wanna join me?" she asked motioning to an open spot at a table by the far wall

Distillation/Fuel (L): Standing outside, Cheers had her cover alls rolled down to her waist, a tank top clung to her skin drenched in sweat as she took a long drink from a bottle of water before checking her watch. "They better get here soon," she mumbled to herself. She was hot, tired, and all this traipsing around for a funeral detail meant she had to put double time in on fuel today to replace the used portion. She was done. She just wanted to get her paper work turned in and get something to eat.

"What the hell you waiting on?" Cage asked as he passed by.

"Supply, what are you doing carrying food?" Cheers asked as she motioned towards the tray.

"I'm fuckin' meals on wheels baby," he said with a chuckle.

"You're deranged," she followed up with. Cage shrugged and kept heading back towards the Jail. Shaking her head, Cheers watched Cage until he was out of sight before glancing back at the other end of the road and checking her watch again. "Nikki better not be surfing again..."

Education Center (M): The professor glanced at Thalia and laced her fingers together. "No it isn't required." She paused for a moment as her eyes drifted down to Thalia's prosthetic. A brow raised as she leaned in a bit more and put her glasses on. "Though you can be taught to with that hand," she pointed out as she pulled her glasses back off and let them fall to her chest as they were secured on a chain that hung around her neck loosely.

"I am interested to see you prove yourself academically but this will do for now," the professor said to Nigel as he took to signing as well. Once all the papers were signed she collected them and signed them herself before dating them. "Sparrow, witness please," she said as she held out a pen loosely towards the scared woman.

General Supply (R): After Amelia came in, Auntie peaked her head out of her office hearing voices. Her eyes narrowed slightly as she walked out front. "You two ain't done yet? Get yer asses movin'! Don't want to see ya again till mornin'! Git!" Auntie snapped as she waved a handful of silverware at them that she had been cataloging.

Inside Jail (AA): "Nothing that didn't deserve being stuck down here," he said as he propped one foot on a step and the other on a lower one. Sliding down he sat on the stairs out of sight but within ear shot. Leaning back against the cold concrete that lined the walls he sighed. "Was supposed to clean down here. Said I was. Cage checked. Didn't like the job I did, told me to fix it. I gave it all of five more minutes. He let me get away with it one more time. Third time I tried to storm out. He wouldn't let me go until I did it. I refused. Was being a little shit who thought scrubbing was beneath me. So he locked me in down here. Said he'd let me out either in the morning or when it was clean, which ever came last. You can bet this place was spotless by the time dawn rolled around." It had been a hell of a day that day, Ted could still remember it. Didn't matter the job that came after that, he did it, did it right, and never had to sit overnight in cell again. Hard lesson but lesson learned.

Hearing Hunters bold faced about face caused Ted to chuckle a bit and shake his head. "Yeah, keep tellin' yerself that kid. Maybe you'll start believing it. I can smell the bullshit from a mile away," he said not believing what Hunter was saying. It wasn't that he could read Hunter but because Hunter had said things before knowing Cage had left. Because of his attitude from the start. It was very telling. Maybe cooling his heels in a cage would get him to see straight. Maybe not. It wasn't his problem or his job. His job was simple. Clean up the mess, which was done. And file a report on everything said while he was down here. "First you bitch he isn't doing his job. Soon as you find out he is you switch your complaints Noid. I can't decide if you are a drama king or a liar but seriously, shut the hell up. Your attitude stinks worse than Rosie's Bathroom." Rubbing his hands along the back of his knees.

Thana stood there silently and just watched as things were gotten together. This really didn't concern her but she was there for more or less moral support at this point. In case Nigel needed anything, or Thalia at this point. She figured it would just be an in and out thing. It was turning out a bit longer than that but it was okay. She just hoped that Ash wasn't sitting in the mess hall done with his dinner and waiting for her to show up. She'd get to dinner as soon as she could but she wasn't about to leave the two of them high and dry, not until she was sure that they were both signed up. She was kind of surprised that her Uncle was already accepting Thalia for D Roster but she wasn't going to say anything. She knew Thalia could fight, she just needed some rehab.

Nigel she didn't know about but he was fit and with all his limbs so him signing up she didn't think would be a problem. Thana smirked as she looked over towards Nigel. "And just who do you think I mean?" she asked. She wasn't about to tell them both straight out. If either guessed she might nod but for now this could be a little more fun. If anything it was a way to pass the time as she waited for things to get finished up around here before she could head out. She really wanted to head out. Thana was a patient woman but she was finding these days she wasn't as patient as she wished she was, or as she had been in the past. Then again, she had a good reason these days.

Thana's brow quirked as the Professor called her out specifically. She hadn't thought she would be needed and was two seconds from saying see ya and rushing off. It seemed however that it was a good thing that she had held her ground and stuck around as long as she had. She got to play witness to these two signing papers. It made sense but then again to her it was a waste of time. If they got hurt or died, who the hell was going to sue? Shit like that wasn't something they needed to worry about anymore. Yet this was how things were done here, she wasn't in charge, and it didn't hurt anything so she didn't bother even voicing why she thought it was pointless. Instead she stepped forward and signed, in cursive before grinning and sticking her tongue out at Thalia, on the dotted line.

A bright smile came over Nikki's features when she spotted Amelia coming down the road. She held the door open for her. "No worries, it's just your first day," she said before letting the door close behind them as they both got inside. She remembered her first day on supply runs. She got lose so many times. She took forever and barely made it to the mess for the last bit of left overs in the kitchen late that night. Amelia was still more or less running on time so this was a good start. The place was big and made for a lot of running. She'd get the hang of it and was already off to a better start than Nikki had been.

"Two carts left. Distillation and the Jail. Their the furthest out but if we go together we can knock it out quickly and hopefully be done even faster. It's a bit of a trek to the jail. It's on the back side of the place, north side, other side of the water way. Why I left it until last," she explained as she pointed to the two carts. They were full of supplies and covered with clip boards hanging off them, much like the one for the armory had been. This meant a check and signature was required. Grabbing one Nikki jerked her head towards the other. "I got this one, you get the other, then we can get the hell out of here before Auntie says anything."

It seemed that Nikki spoke too soon. Auntie yelling made her cringe but the words made her smile. "Don't have to tell me twice!" she said before pushing her cart around and quickly backing up into the door. Pushing it open with her rear end and pulling the cart out. She held it with her foot for Amelia until she had the door herself and started to head down the road. Nikki waited for Amelia before pushing it down the street and towards the Eastern Gate.

"Just let me know if you need me to slow down," Nikki said with a wink. Amelia had mentioned needing a breather, so she didn't want to push too hard but she also wanted to get this over and done with. At a decent pace she made her way down to the road near the Enlisted Housing, making sure to stay on the sidewalk and out of the way of the kids playing stick ball before turning.

"It's just up the street, Distillation," Nikki mentioned as she pointed past the trees ahead. She'd keep her pace unless Amelia needed her to slow down. Nikki had the cart for the Jail, leaving Distillation's cart for Amelia. She hoped that Cheers was still there, last thing she wanted to do was track down the woman to get a signature. She let out a sigh of relief when she spotted Cheers standing there outside having a break. "Hey, sorry, were backed up today. Thanks for waiting around," Nikki said, trying to be sweet. Cheers already ragged her enough, she didn't want to make it worse.

Camp Mexico Beach (General Streets): Out on the streets of Camp Mexico Beach things are going smoothly. Now that many of the few children that are part of the community are done with dinner they are out and about. What vehicles were driving around have stopped and people are walking now. Main shops like Fabrication and Mechanics are shutting down and those that work in them are closing up before heading to dinner. Volts and Tesla are heading out but Mizrahi is just hanging out at the picnic table by the building as he is reading. Dusty is chugging along trying to hurry up to the Mess Hall. Chase has her nose in her notes as she takes a seat in the grass and is filling out paper work. Shears and Spots have files as they head into Administration. All in all it seems to be a typical evening for the place and calm enough several kids are playing stick ball on the main road.

Amelia will have no problem just dropping off and getting back to the General Supply building this round where Nikki will be waiting and dealing with what is going on there.

Administration (A): The general was enjoying the conversation with Alexander. He had conversations with others but not just laid back like this. Not even with his own sons these days. Everything was about keeping the community going, making sure that the rules were followed, keeping other communities taken care of or at bay. Right then he was just a retired man talking to another retired man who could remember the same presidents as he did, someone who had seen the same battles the same war he had. It was refreshing and something he needed. The younger folks had each other and even though there were plenty around his age they saw him as the General, not Aeron. Or as a father or a grand father. Right now he was just talking man to man and it made the load on his shoulders feel a little less daunting.

That was until he asked why he was in pain. Sighing he took the pipe and another pull from it. "The big C." He said it dryly and without much emotion. He held the hit in before letting it out slowly and the cloud of smoke billowed up around him until the wind took it away. "We all have our time, this just makes mine a little more tolerable." Standing up he leaned against his cane and snuffed out the pipe before slipping it back into his pocket. "Please don't say anything, only my sons and Doc know yet. I haven't found a way to tell the town or my granddaughter yet." Breathing out he smiled as he started to walk around the table. "I am ravenous, let's eat," he added before motioning at the little path that lead around the back of the Administration building. "We can avoid Rolodex, she is too feisty for me right now," he laughed as he walked.

Mess Hall (C): "Listen I don't give a damn what the rations are, the fucker is a twig." One could hear a man yelling in the back before he stepped into the doorway that lead to the kitchen proper. "Put it down as an expense."

"Cage, chill man, I got ya," Morales said as he squeezed by carrying a half pan of casserole.

"Fucking bullshit. Rations are fine when someone has some meat on them but that kids clothes weigh more than he does," Case snapped as he crossed his arms over his chest.

"Easy hombre, I feel ya, don't worry. Breath man," Morales added as he grabbed a tray and started filling it up while the general staff was taking care of those in line. "Hey Lisa, havin' a good day?" he said with a wink. Turning around he handed it over. "There ya go man, even added in some fruit."

"Yeah, well good, and make sure the kid has some protein at breakfast," Cage said snatching the tray and marching out the door. Cook came out from the back and glanced at Morales.

"He's doing better," Morales said with a smile.

"After yesterday I'm surprised he is handling things as well as he is," Cook said before looking at Manny. "Evenin'."

"Wasn't nothing he could do...'" Morales said with a sigh before heading to the back again.

Coming up behind Lisa and Manny in line, DoLittle picks up a tray and waits her turn. Glancing at Lisa she grins slightly. "Did Nikki get a chance to talk to you?" she asks as she stands there before looking at Manny. "Hey. DoLittle, vet around here."

Education Center (M): Edna set the file down and flipped it open. Licking her finger as she thumbed through it slowly. Her brow rose as Thalia came in out of no where. "A second one?" she asked more to the air than to either of them standing there. She glanced over Thalia's shoulder to see about Thana, whom she had seen earlier. "How many more from this group you figure are going to show up?"

After Thana answered she grumbled a bit. "Fine," she said before flipping the page again. "Nigel Cooper and Thalia Carmichael, no therapy required for either of you and no medical issues." Glancing at Thalia she noted. "Nothing that can't be gotten around," she added before writing down some more. Flipping the page she seemed to write more before turning each sheet around on her desk. "You both will need to read over and sign these. They state that you are volunteering for D Roster. That you will follow the lead and directions of your instructors, return all weapons at the end of each training session, that you acknowledge this is a fire arms free training that will consist of edged weapons, shields, and hand to hand training. And that should you fail to complete the courses both physical and written that you are omitted from moving up to C Roster."

Inside Jail (AA): Ted looked over to Ash and laughed. "Damn right I am! Probably the last person on Earth that knows them 11 secret herbs and spices," Ted chuckled with the cigarette between his lips as he bowed up slightly and struck a pose. Laughing he ashed his cigarette in an empty can before relaxing again. Pulling his knees to his chest and draping his arms over them. "Several groups, but none lasted. Wouldn't even call them groups. More like a few people huddling together. Was out there alone in Bama for a long time before Beta team came across me in a sink hole. Had broke my leg and couldn't climb out. Figured I'd die there. Was about to eat a bullet when Shakespeare and Bass showed up and hauled me out." Pulling up his pants leg and then pushing his sock down he showed a jagged scar near his ankle. "Doc fixed me up."

Dropping his pants leg he shook it out. Sitting there his head rolled to the side slightly as Hunter started up again. "Ladies and gentlemen, let me present you the NOID," Ted said as he motioned towards Hunter. "Remember children we avoid the Noid. What is a Noid you ask? Notice of Intent to Deny. A person who shuffles everything from their own shoulder to the blame of others even while claiming they are owning up to it. How is our current specimen a Noid? Let us review this. He is in jail, a prisoner. He claims that the Warden is derelict in his duty. This is false. The prisoner is clean, has a place to sleep that is clean, he is in a room that is air conditioned, the Warden has not neglected or withheld anything that would be classified as negligent. In fact, just the opposite. The Warden is on his forth shift in a row thanks to a funeral detail needing to be placed together using some of his people. The Warden secured the building before leaving to fetch the prisoner his meal. Now, the meal is normally delivered but because of the funeral detail it cannot be delivered on time today. It would not be delivered until well past 2200 hours tonight. So the Warden is walking to the Mess Hall to fetch a tray and walk it back to ensure that said prisoner is fed on time. This is what a Noid is people, a person who causes issues where there are none."

Rolling his eyes he looked up at the ceiling. "I told you about the damn meal like ten minutes ago.... In other words he is doing his fucking job and making sure you are taken care of Noid. So what if he isn't nice. You're a prisoner being brought up on court martial and I can see why now." Shaking his head he finished his cigarette and snuffed it out as he stood up. Dusting his ass off he headed to the stairs. "Thank you for attending my Ted Talk." Taking a seat half way up the stairs he checked his watch, he hoped Cage would be back soon because he already wanted to gut this guy.

Thana glanced over to Thalia and chuckled a bit. Yeah bitches like them got the job done. They had in Eden. Herself, Thalia, Lola, Beatrice. They had gotten shit done. Not that the guys along with them hadn't but Manny was found there, Alexander was on him, Gavin... Gavin... He got shit done even if it did him in. Looking down at the floor she sighed. She wouldn't have gotten out of Eden if Gavin hadn't played cowboy that day. She was going to kick that mans ass soon as she got to heaven. "Hello God, just a moment," she thought to herself before punching the shit out of Gavin for pulling that stunt and then thanking him. He'd understand, God would have to deal. "Yeah we get shit done." Her voice was distant.

A sly grin came to her features when Thalia said she was a strange one. "You have no idea," she taunted slightly. Thing was she wasn't really joking. Thana knew she had a strange sense of humor that kicked in at the worst times usually. It had gotten her in trouble more than once. She could remember being in boot. She was late to the line. Her Drill Instructor was tearing her a new one, asking why the hell she was late. "Sorry sir, saw a nice piece of ass. All the blood rushed to my dick and I couldn't remember the way here." She had said it with a straight face. The DI had to walk off before the company saw him laughing his ass off.

Turning as Thalia went into the room, Thana leaned back against the door and nodded some towards the Professor. "Doubt these two will be your last," was all that Thana said to the question. This wasn't her place. She had gone through her training and clearance. She wouldn't be surprised if many others showed up, she hoped that Ash wouldn't. At least for a while. If he added this to his schedule they might not see much of each other. Right then she just wanted to wrap up and go find him. It was one thing to miss him and not know where he was or if he was alive. Knowing he was in town and alive made every minute a bit tougher to get through in a weird way. Glancing at her watch she checked the time.

Thana had head the deal before. She was told the same. A lot of paper work but it was pretty basic understanding. D Roster was for the new folks or those just starting out in training wanting to do more than just general training for survival. Leaning against the door jam she crossed her arms over her chest. "Just wait until you meet your instructors," Thana said before that same coy smile tugged at the corner of her lips.

Checking the clock that hung on the wall Nikki figured that Amelia should be back any minutes. At least she hoped she would be. She wasn't hearing anything in the back so for all she knew Auntie was out getting her own dinner right then. Or in her office working on paper work. Nikki wasn't about to go back there and check. If Auntie was back there the last thing she wanted to do was to draw attention to herself. Things were quiet right then and she wanted to keep them that way. She had to stop herself from popping another bubble with the piece of gum she had been chewing on for the better part of the day. Finally, at around the third time she nearly popped a bubble out of sheer habit she swallowed the gum. If it took seven years to get out of her system so be it. Better than alerting Auntie The Hun that she was in there.

Nikki looked at the clock again before going back to the carts. She made sure for a third time that everything was there for the distillery and the jail. She did not want to have to come back tonight. As long as these were dropped off without issue her and Amelia would be done. So yes, no chance of coming back she hoped. Grabbing one of the carts she moved it over a bit before moving the second one. Everything was in order and ready to go. Heading to the door, Nikki pushed it open quietly and peeked outside. She hoped she would spot Amelia and could get going.

Camp Mexico Beach (General Streets): Out in the streets things are starting to get busy as people are more and more heading towards dinner. Amelia will be able to, once she finishes up with the armory to hit the last place she has a cart for - Enlisted Housing. It is a simple drop where she just sets the cart inside the door and off to the side. Nothing to worry about there. Nikki will finish her rounds and be able to get back to the Supply building this round. Amelia will miss Nikki when she picks up her cart.

Administration (A): Aeron chuckled. "Even there we had to try but yes. I like to think we try our best these days but if I have seen anything in this world now is that there are still some that the most effort they put into anything is trying to put in no effort at all." The man sighed. He had seen it a lot in the beginning. Entitlement had killed just as many as the Walkers had. It was sad. These days it wasn't as much as a problem but there were still hiccups. Those determined to refuse to let go of the past and move forward. "Today the only thing we can do is move forward because if we look back we're never going to get anywhere," he seemed to say out of the air.

Smiling slightly he nodded in understanding. "Yes, seeing her again brought up similar to me." He hadn't had a chance to exactly process seeing his granddaughter again when she was first rushed in but it hit him later. Much later. After she left the hospital. When he knew she would live, that's when he felt the weight of seeing her again. "Yes, Michael and do not worry. You will get it in time. One of the reasons we use handles for people working a lot of the time. It started with a lady, Rose. She had dementia. She started calling people by names of things she associated with them. It helped her remember better. So call signs became the new normal for us. It helps."

"Ha! Well Welsh, English, same island," he said with a wink. "At least you didn't call me Scottish," he added with a chuckle. "Then smoke slow. The strain is much stronger lately, I believe Michael upped my dose. If it can help my pain I am sure you will feel right as rain shortly. Once we finish, we should eat. Then we can go to education. I have stored there much of what I was going through to find the picture I showed you."

Hospital/Medical (B): There are a decent amount of people heading out of the hospital about this time of the day. There are also more coming in. It doesn't look like they are sick, the ones coming in. More like the hospital is using this time as a shift change. Those coming in look like they were coming from the Mess Hall and some are talking about maybe they shouldn't have served more Tuna Casserole considering how hot it was today. Everything in the hospital goes smooth enough and nothing else holds them up. They will be able to get over to the mess hall without issue.

Mess Hall (C): Outside people are entering and leaving. More are going in than are leaving currently. Inside the place the tables are mostly empty, people are scattered about eating, kids are finishing up. The menu for dinner is the same as it was for lunch. Tuna - Salad, Sushi, Casserole. Oranges are available as some clear broth. Most of the people that are in the Mess Hall are in a line. It a bit more busy as people don't have a specific time to help keep things from bottlenecking. There is a line but it is moving quickly, so shouldn't take long for anyone to get through it.

Education Center (M): "We can always use another academic, we have a growing number of children here and we do tutor other safe zones when we can spare the personnel," she said as she pulled out a note pad and started jotting some things down. "The class schedule it out front still, if you see one you wish to audit simply show up and hand this to whomever is instructing," she said signing off on the paper before handing it to him. It was simple enough - his name, stating he was auditing the class, her signature. Much like a hallpass in school.

At his other mention she stopped. "Yes we have classes," she said. She didn't seem as enthused about this. Standing up she walked over to a filing cabinet she yanked it open. "D Roster is the entry level."

Armory (S): Panama took the sheet and started going over what was on it and what was in the cart. Double checking that everything was there. Most places Amelia just dropped things off or if a signing was needed it was quick. Panama seemed to be taking a lot longer to get this drop off done than any other place so far. Then again this place was housing the weapons and ammunition, and explosives. It was probably prudent for this area to be more thorough than the others. At her question, Panama went "huh?" It didn't register she was asking something at first and as he looked at her he took a moment longer to figure out what she said.

"Oh yeah, its locked up," he said as he went back to looking at the sheet.

"You named it?" Bass asked. "Oh now that's a sign it means somethang," he said as he sat down on the edge of the counter.

Signing off on the sheet. "Then have her tell ya about it later, Auntie will ream her ass if she doesn't finish on time," Panama said as he signed off and handed the sheet back over.

"True, see ya later," Bass said as Panama walked over to the door and unlocked it. He held the door open for Amelia until she stepped through, afterwhich he pulled it closed and locked the door once again.

Inside Jail (AA): Sitting there the guy listened to Ash and Hunter. He didn't seem to interested in what was being said. Sounded like just another this is what I did before and how it started for me tale. He'd heard hundreds of them now. "Shit hit the fan and we all got hit." Ted laughed a bit.

Following up, Ted got a bit more droll. "Naw, he's just havin' a time lately," he said before taking a long pull off his cigarette. "Cage is alright. Plays a hell of a game of baseball. He's just..." There was a long pause as Ted looked up at the ceiling. "Dealing." There seemed to be a lot Ted wasn't saying but he had reason to keep his mouth shut. Breathing out he looked over at Hunter and shrugged. "Though maybe you shouldn't judge considering yer up on court marshall charges on day one pal. I punched Panama on my first day and I didn't get tossed in here."

Looking over to Ash, Ted took another puff off his cigarette. "I part of the Col.'s grand army." He grinned a bit as he held the cigarette between his lips. "I was a fry bitch at KFC's Big Chicken, god I could go for some extra crispy right about now." Looking down at his watch he checked the time, then he looked up as if he was calculating something, before shrugging. "Shit, I'd just kill for a coke."

Thana leaned back against the wall. Her brow went up a bit to hear about the D Roster. She hadn't been expecting that but then again she hadn't really spent a lot of time within the gates learning how the place was run. Her time had been spent in a hospital bed or trying to recover only to high tail it right back out the gate as soon as she was able. There was still a lot about Camp Mexico Beach that she had to learn but she wasn't worried. She wasn't in a position of power here. She wasn't a lead. She was just a worker bee and she could handle that. Maybe if Ash hadn't come back she would have pushed for more but right now she wanted to do her job and only her job. Her mind and heart and body still needed time to recover.

Knowing that Ash and her group was safe was what she needed to be able to let her guard down some and do just that. She intended to focus on that for the foreseeable future. Getting up, working, going home, just sitting with someone you cared about, and doing nothing else might have gotten boring for some but not her, not now. Being able to have that as close as the suburban life as this world allowed for now was the ultimate end game for her and she intended to soak it up. Sure, one of the group had left but she wasn't going to. She was in it for the long haul. She knew at one point Thalia was going to move on but she wondered if the girl would stick it out now, especially since her brother was there. Then again she was wanting to train. Could be just to get used to not having a hand. Though Thalia was a stubborn one. She might not stop until she either found out what happened to all her family or died herself.

"Hey, don't worry about it. Should have seen me ballin' when I saw Ash. Would have thought I lost my balls," Thana said with a chuckle trying to blow over seeing Thalia starting to emote. She had cried when she saw Ash. She lost control of her knees and Ash had to catch her before she hit the ground. Another chuckle left her lips. "Yeah fuck She-Ra. Sparrow and Angel. Granted with our luck we'd end up as blow up dolls in this worlds version of Spencers," Thana added while she was laughing under her breath and trying not to get too loud. "Walk in on some ass 'playing' with our dolls."

Hearing the Professor, Thana quickly stopped laughing and looked at Thalia. "Go, now," she said gesturing towards the door. It was as good a time as any to crash the party.

Nikki was glad the sun was starting to set. The heat was something she never thought she would really get used to no matter how much time she spent out in it. She had heard people tell her she would in time but as far as she could tell she still hated it as much now as she did five years ago. With as much as she sweated some days she was pretty sure it would be dehydration that would end up killing her before any walker got to take a bite out of her ass, or any other part of her. She figured this was why she enjoyed skateboarding and swimming so much. Both helped to keep her cooler when she was outside.

The day she no longer had air conditioning at night was the day she knew she would stab someone just for looking at her. Heat made her crazy stupid, or maybe she was just crazy. No, the doctors had tested her - she was sane. Well as sane as anyone could be these days she figured. She was definitely more sane than a lot of people she had met over the years. Hell half the time she swore she was more sane than Maddog, or maybe she just didn't get pissed off as easily as he did. Okay maybe not more sane than Maddog but DEFINITELY more sane than that new guy Wayne. She was sure that guy was bat shit fucking nuts. She swore she heard him talking to someone that wasn't there, multiple times.

All this thinking about heat and sanity had kept Nikki's mind so busy that she didn't realize she just autopiloted the rest of her deliveries. It was amazing how much faster time moved when one was inside their own head and not paying attention to what was really going on around them past making sure they didn't trip over their own two feet. Pulling the door open to the General Supply building she took in the cool air. Now she didn't have to worry about going nuts because of the heat now. Walking over to the carts she spotted only two left. That meant Amelia was on her last delivery. This was good. They were almost done. Now if only they were able to get done and out before Auntie spotted her.

Camp Mexico Beach (General Streets): Dinner is going on now but it isn't like Lunch there isn't a set time as long as you get in before they are done for the evening. Mostly right now it is the youngest getting their meals with family if they have it or those taking care of them.

On the streets it is getting a tad cooler but not enough to make it comfortable. Sun is still up even if it is setting. Nothing remarkable, just general here to there movement. Shops and main work areas are closing up and heading towards Admin to turn in paperwork they are carrying.

Amelia will be in the Armory Supply this round. Nikki will get to M&F before heading to Electrical. M&F is pretty empty, Mizrahi being the only one left in the area right now and he is under a vehicle working on it. The others have already headed out and are on their way to clean up and ready for dinner before heading that way.

Administration (A): Aeron sat there and listened intently to what Alexander was saying. As he listened, giving the occasional nod or "ahh yes" he pulled out a pipe and jostled the half burned contents with the point of a pocket knife. Pulling out a lighter he took a few puffs and inhaled. He held the smoke for a moment before breathing out. Then he stopped and looked at Alexander. "Ahh, yes well some are having a harder time getting used to things but it happens. Our screening isn't exactly foolproof but we do try."

Looking down at his pipe he seemed tired. "The world now, the world then, everything we had then we have now. Everything that we truly need that is. Save for one thing. Hope." Looking out over the water. "When we were at war we knew it would end. We would either die or live to see the end. We won't live to see the end of this. I doubt the children here will see an end. This is the new normal." Shaking off the thought he looked over to Alexander and smiled slightly as the wind shifted.

The smell of college not tobacco was coming from the pipe. "Oh forgive me, I hope you don't mind." He looked back at the pipe and chuckled. "I don't normally partake but Michael prescribed it, easier to produce than pain medications," he added before taking another 'hit'. Coughing slightly. "I must say it does help though I get a terrible craving for Crumpets and Tea each time." Holding it up a bit he tilted his head to the side. "Would you care to partake?"

Hospital/Medical (B): Everything in medical is going smoothly. It will take about twenty minutes to get everything cleaned up. The plant will need to be repotted and such all things considered and well no matter how good someone is - dirt on a white floor is a pain in the ass to get up. It won't be difficult more as just basically time consuming. The two should finish by the end of this round and be able to head to put things away.

Education Center (M): "Quilting?" That was not the type of class she was expecting for him to request. She gave half a glance towards Thana standing in the doorway yet she didn't say anything to the scarred woman. She did however give her a slight nod of acknowledgement. Looking back over to Nigel she leaned back in her seat. "Lists that are being updated now are for weapons and combat," she said. "The others won't be updated for another few days as we have other matters to attend to, you can look through those when they are done."

"As far as my thoughts I do not know you well enough to be informed enough to make such a suggestion unless you want to sign up for story time and read to the younger children in day care," she added after a few moments of thought. She did have some ideas for Nigel, it was on her recommendation that he would do well in Education. "It depends on what you are looking for. If you are wanting to pursue teaching here I would suggest auditing one of the classes." Setting her pen down she looked the man over a few times. "But you came in here for a reason. Why not tell me what that is." Her eyes darted over towards the doorway again as she heard a voice and her eyes narrowed a bit for a split second before turning her attention back to Nigel, waiting for an answer.

Armory(S): One could hear several clicks happen on the door before it was pulled opened. Bass stood there standing a good half a foot or more taller than Amelia. Looking down he spotted the cart. "Oh hey, come on in," he said as he pulled the door open fully and held it open so she could bring it in.

The building looked like it had been gutted and redone. Floors and walls were bare, plain, concrete now. Walk in cages were set up, thick steel cross hatching allowed one to see what was in each at a glance but not be able to reach through. Doors were placed on each cage area that was secured into the floor and walls. Each cage looked to be about the same size but divided up into different weapons. From pole arms to bows to pistols to much larger took up one full wall. Another was armors of sorts from vests to greeves to shields, Astrids hanging there on said wall. The back was divided up with a door between each side. It was hard to tell at first but one side was ammo and one side was explosives. They had far more firepower than Newnan had had and held it under tighter security.

Panama was sitting behind a low counter that seemed to have been dropped in the center of the room. "Hey girl," he said tipping his hat to her as he stood up. A toothpick was held between his teeth as he stood up. "I'm tellin' ya Bass, you gotta either nut up or shut up about the girl."

"Ain't that the pot callin' the kettle black. Remember how much you whined and moaned about..." Bass started as he let go of the door and locked it back once Amelia was inside the room with the cart. He was cut off though quickly as Panama interjected.

"So I am speaking from experience!" he said loudly. Bass gave him a look that screamed yeah right. Walking over to Amelia, Panama adjusted his belt. "A'right, got the sheet?" he asked as he held out his hand.

Inside Jail (AA): Ted stood there with the cigarette held between his lips and took a long puff as he listened to the back and forth. Just shaking his head he turned around and got to work on the wall. He was listening but it seemed the two were having a moment so he let it be. After listening to Volts earlier while he was cleaning the woman's bathroom he was glad to have a change. Plus he didn't know these two, so this was something new. He grinned slightly as he as he finished his cigarette and put it out in an empty can he had in his supplies.

Leaning back against the wall he nodded toward Ash. "Yeah, we're good but you might as well get comfortable. Cage won't come to check for at least half an hour and if we go banging to open the door he'll make us wait longer. I got stuck in here all night once," he laughed as he slid down and set on the floor. Draping his arms over his knees. "Though tonight might take longer. Detail was pulled for some funeral today, left Cage short handed so he's gonna have to go get his meal," he added with a head jerking motion towards Hunter. "So chances are with the time he ain't even in the building right now."

Thana hung back and waited. It wasn't like she had a lot to do right then. She had to wait for Ash to finish up what he was doing before they saw each other this evening. Granted she did want to get a shower and clean up before dinner. Being in the water had cleaned both of them up some but then walking back to the Greenhouse, being in the greenhouse, being outside in the heat - it made a person sweat - a lot. Not to mention the waters of the gulf liked to kick up a lot of sand into the mix and she could feel the salt sticking to her skin now and drying it out. She really needed to take a shower but that would have to wait.

At the mention of quilting she looked at the back of Nigel's head oddly. It was clear by the expression on her face that she hadn't expected that as well. Last she had heard he wanted to sign up to fight on some level. She didn't know what type of game he was playing but she wanted to see how it played out. Seeing the Professor glance her way she gave a single nod of her head back to the woman. Listening more it seemed like the woman wasn't exactly buying the whole wanting suggestions thing but part of her believed Nigel did want to know what others thought. He seemed willing to learn. She couldn't fault him for that.

Turning her head she spotted Thalia coming over. Her brow quirked at the words before she gestured with a quick motion of her hand towards the woman sitting behind the desk. "That's her," she said quietly, keeping her voice down before taking a step back and over to the wall outside of the door. Let her still hear what was going on but gave her a bit more privacy to speak to Thalia. "They're probably gonna be a few. What ya here to talk to her 'bout? If ya don't care me knowin'," she added as she leaned back against the wall and crossed her arms over her chest. It was Thalia's business but Thana was curious. Especially considering her uncle had apparently told Thalia to talk to the professor.

Getting all the carts moved out of supply and to their various destinations in the camp wasn't going to take near as long as it usually did for Nikki today. All because Amelia was there and helping out. That was at least if Amelia got everything right and Nikki didn't end up having to go back behind her. She doubted Amelia was going to mess things up. This was one of the simplest tasks in the camp. You had a cart, it had a label, you pushed it the place and dropped it off. The most complicated drops at most had to wait for someone to review the cart and then sign off on it. Usually only the Distillery and the Armory needed signatures. Most places were just getting replacement towels or toilet paper so it wasn't any big deal.

Into Mechanics and Fabrication she went. Normally this place took a few. Not because it was a complicated drop but because Volts was usually running his mouth. He seemed to like to do that. Nikki did to and she was slightly disappointed not to see the man when she brought the cart in. She could see Mizrahi's feet sticking out from beneath the vehicle. "Just dropping off the cart," she said as she pushed it over to the space near the door that joined the two main areas of the building. She didn't stick around to see if he responded. She had a hard time figuring out what the man was saying. Not so much because of his accent, which was thick, but because he spoke such broken English half the time he said something she couldn't make heads of tails about.

One more stop done and more to go she thought to herself as she jogged across the street and back over to the General Supply building. Inside she grabbed a cart and noted how many were gone that Amelia must have already taken care of. Seeing the Armory one gone she hoped the girl got the note but didn't stick around to find out. Out the door once again and on her way she pushed it quickly over to the Main Electric. She only had two more stops tonight for this side of Camp Mexico Beach once she finished this one. Then there was heading over to the distillery and the jail. She'd wait for Amelia to do those. They were further out and she didn't want to have to come back.

Camp Mexico Beach (General Streets): Things are going smoothly for the most part out in the streets. It is approaching 6pm now. Check schedules for things your character wanted to do or has to do and post accordingly.

Amelia - once she leaves the hospital will be able to get another cart, get it dropped off at Sea Processing without issue. Then get another and head over to the armory. It is locked up tight and there is a buzzer by the door. The cart for the armory has a note that says to get signed off by Armory before leaving.

Nikki will get back to supply and be able to grab another cart. This one is for mechanics and fabrication. She won't make it to M & F this round.

Administration (A): Gunny nodded towards Alexander as his eyes lifted some. "See you at dinner, if not tomorrow," Gunny said in passing before looking back over towards Thalia and nodding as well. He had paper work to deal with as well as the whole situation with Hunter. He was glad the two that were assigned to the Administration Office were at least working out. He hadn't had any doubts about them. His daughter had told him plenty about the group, especially them. He would have been more surprised if they had been problem causers. Seemed the only one causing any real issues was the one person that didn't come in with any group but was alone. Perhaps the reason for that was coming more clear than it had been to start.

Down the hallway the General stopped as he heard Alexander. Turning he looked over to the man and smiled, holding his hand out. "Well if it isn't Mugsy," he said offering his hand out to shake. "Ah yes, I think I have that right. Don't I? My granddaughter had mentioned the callsign in passing." Pulling his head slightly towards the door. "And no, never too late. I was just stepping out for a moment. Care to join me? We can talk details and then I can show you where I was talking about is," he added as his hand fell to the door and he pushed it open.

Stepping out back the sun was bright and the heat hit hard. Aeron walked, leaning against his cane as he went, moving over to a set of picnic tables set up out back along the canal. they had umbrella's open to give shade and there were some large fans set up to help move the air out there. All in all, once seated at a table it wasn't too bad. Looking over at Alexander he grinned as he pulled a pipe out and a lighter. "First though, tell me, how was your first day on the job?"

Hospital/Medical (B): Doc pulled his shirt back down and dusted it off a bit more now that he was sure that nothing had been broken. Looking over to Amelia as she came in and had the cart he seemed to breath a breath of relief. "Angry potted plant, was pissed it hadn't been watered. Attacked poor Lisa here. Was a hell of a fight, tried to eat her whole," he said with a look that was dead serious before chuckling and walking over to the cart.

Glancing at Lisa he rolled his eyes. "I haven't had a girl on top of me since '91 and I had to throw her off of me then too," he said before sticking his tongue out at her. "But hey if it isn't that big a deal you lay down and I'll get SB to sit on you for a while," he added with a laugh before looking over the cart. "Thanks for this, at least Mary will shut up now," he said to Amelia with a smile as he took the cart from her.

Turning slightly he motioned towards Lisa. "She's got you, and once you're done just head out, any problems send Mary to me," he said before he started to push the cart down the hallway. "See ya later and good work today," he called back over his shoulder as he walked down the hallway and turned down another hall out of sight.

Education Center (M): Red pen in hand, the Professor looked like a caricature of a teacher. Marks on the paper in bright red as she corrected papers. She could have easily been the inspiration for the teacher in Raphel's class in the movie a Christmas Story when he was day dreaming about his Theme being graded only to have his hopes dashed away when he received it back, graded, red marks everywhere, a C+ on the paper with a little note: You'll shoot your eye out.

Lifting her head slightly, she looked at him from under the furrowing of her brows but over the flat edge brim of her glasses. "Lists?" she asked before a look of understanding came over her face and she sat up more. "Oh yes, we removed several to update," she said as she turned around in her chair and pulled a folder off a shelf behind her. Opening the folder she thumbed through it before setting it down on her desk.

"Have a seat Mr. Cooper," she said as she motioned towards the chair that was turned on its side in front of her desk. "Now, which class or classes were you thinking about wanting to attend?" she asked as she looked over to him.

Down the hallway, one of the guys glanced over at Thalia and gave her a "Good luck! Yer gonna need it," before saluting her as if she was about to face the last battle of her life.

"Sit your ass down Dummel! Fucking weirdo," a girl added as she grabbed him by the edge of his shirt and pulled him back down into his seat.

Chapel (V): Joaquin glanced over at Nikki and lifted a brow. "Hold thy tongue wench," he warned as he stood up and started to take a step towards her.

"Quin, go inside, I got this," Atticus said jumping in front of the man before he had a chance to jump Nikki. His crooked lips seemed to quiver some in a growl but he relented and cast a glance towards the Padre before nodding. He seemed to give another look towards Nikki, one of warning. Turning, one could hear the jingle clink of the spurs he wore on his boots echoing after each step onto the concrete steps before it went silent as he hit the carpet inside the chapel and the door swung closed behind him.

Turning Atticus let out a slow breath and looked over to Nikki. "Seriously girl, not a word," he said as he jogged down the steps to her and the cart. "Please, not at least until he has a chance to sit down with his sister and talk."

Inside Jail (AA): It seemed neither of them wanted a cigarette. Ted shrugged and lit one up for himself. Neither had said they minded him smoking. At the mention of pot he chuckled. "Yeah, till yer cleared ya can't get a hold of smokables or edibles in this place," he said without a second thought as he held the cigarette between his lips and got to getting his supplies together.

The boy didn't glance back at Hunter as he spoke more. He just laughed a bit under his breath. "Ya know, it's always the squirrelly ones with noth8ing left to loose that are the most dangerous," he added as he pulled on a pair of dish gloves. He was about to say more when Ash pipped in. He stopped, took the cigarette between two fingers and had a deep drag of it. His eyes brows going up a little more the longer Ash went on.

Once Ash was one he half coughed half chuckled. "Haven't heard a rant like that since Maddog came down here to rip Checkbook a new one." Ashing the cigarette in an empty can he shrugged as he picked up some cleaning supplies and stepped into the other cell. "Then again, he wasn't as nice about it." Kneeling down with the cigarette between his lips he picked up the tooth and flung it into a bucket before he started scrubbing the floor.

A small smirk played on Thana's lips as she stood there. It wouldn't surprise her in the least. The Professor wasn't exactly what one would call personable. She wasn't bad but she was hard from what Thana could tell. Then again she hadn't really had cause to deal with the woman a lot. It was more of what she had seen in passing. Sure there were stories she had been told since she arrived in Camp Mexico Beach but like with most things Thana took what she heard with a grain of salt, especially these days. Not having the world like it had been made people find ways to keep from being bored. At least when they didn't have to keep constantly looking over their shoulder for people trying to eat them. Rumors got started easily and Thana always liked to form her own opinion on a person.

Taking a breath she nodded slightly and followed a few steps behind Nigel as he walked into the office. She hung out just at the doorway. Not fully in the room but not in the hallway either. Leaning against the doorjam slightly as she crossed her arms over her chest and waited to see what happened and if Nigel actually needed back up. She doubted it would actually come to that but she figured at least if the Professor gave him hassle she could vouch for the mans work. Sure it was the first day of work and people tended to put their best foot forward on the first day but he had done well, hadn't caused problems, was willing to be directed and learn without push back. Who knew, maybe the fact he used to be a teacher would endear him in some way to the Professor and they could be in and out quickly.

Things seemed to be going well. The woman was talking to Nigel and not sending him straight out of her office. The only thing that seemed out of place was the turned over chair. Thana figured though she knew how that happened considering the way she had seen her uncle storm out of the office just a few minutes ago. If the chair was the only thing that got over turned it had to have been a pretty calm meeting.

This was the best thing that Nikki had seen in a while. The place was down right boring most of the time. Sure it was exciting when she first got there. She had been younger, full of rebel, trying to get to know things, kept breaking the rules even if they were small ones, ended up in jail once. But that was a while ago. Sure there had been other new people since she arrived but they had either worked out quickly or were booted quickly. It would be a day or two of something different. Something to talk about. Then it was gone the way of the DoDo.

Then again Thana had showed up but for weeks it was just a girl in bed sleeping. Then she left. Now, now was different. They had a bunch of new people, one was already in jail, others were dealing, several had to go through therapy, one wasn't allowed in (she really wanted to see the file on him), another left: what for she couldn't figure out. And now, two of the guys that had been here a while were dating? Oh yeah this was good! She couldn't wait to tell people!

But it seemed like fate wasn't going to be kind to her. Joaquin didn't scare her as he said something in gibberish. Well it wasn't gibberish but might as well have been. Why couldn't he just talk normally? She rolled her eyes at him. The padre however took a different approach. Oh that wasn't fair. "Fine..." she acquiesced before popping a bubble with her gum. Turning on her heels she left the cart with him and started jogging back to get the next one. Damn this sucked, she had great gossip worthy news and she couldn't tell a damn soul.

The heat got to her some and she slowed her jog to a walk heading back to General Supply. She was glad to hit the ac of of the building when she did and as she pushed the cart out to take over to mechanics and fabrication the heat hit her again. God she wanted to go dive into the ocean and cool off. Sighing she pushed the cart slowly and headed towards her next destination. Hopefully she wouldn't see anything else she would have to keep a secret over, she sucked at secrets.

Notes: Before we begin this point please take note that the amount of time covered in the post overall. It's going to be a little more than previous posts since we are getting close to the end of day and things are calming down now that the funeral detail has been taken care of and people have or are finishing up their jobs for the day. I want you to start thinking about how you are going to want to have your characters learn/change/stay the same because of being in Camp Mexico Beach. Why now? Well we will go through a couple of quick days soon and then do a time jump. Need you already thinking about these things and make sure it is where you think your character would progress (and if you can rp it out well.) Also, please start working with each other in chat or behind the scenes to see how your personal characters are going to grow towards or pull away from other PC's or even main npcs.

Camp Mexico Beach (General Streets): The sun is starting to set now, it is hanging low in the sky and the cloud coverage is clearing out. It is still hot but the temperature is dropping now and it is in the low 80's to high 70's. The humidity is drying up just a little. While not near as nice as it as it is indoors the small change it welcome, especially to those that are new to camp. You are so used to crap weather and no relief that the small changes make a huge difference.

As it is closing in on dinner a lot of the towns younger kids are already heading towards the mess hall. Daily jobs are starting to wrap up so more and more are on the streets. They are not idling around, most are quickly working their way back to their private quarters to get cleaned up. Some of the most elder citizens are taking walks around town now or cit chatting on various benches or tabled areas set up through out the town. Some late teens and early 20's are down at the beach hanging out, tanning, swimming, body boarding. Inside the walls of Camp Mexico Beach all is well, and calm, and idyllic. One might not even be aware of the outside world if it were not for the small teaching groups dotting open areas of the camp training for various forms of combat.

Amelia will pass a lot of this on her rounds while delivering cart supplies. Water Repair supply went smoothly, the next she will e hitting are Admin and then Medical - Refer to the other areas for information on them.

Nikki will be able to take care of Desalination this round and will end up at the Church.

Administration (A): "We'll talk later darlin'," Sand said in a whispy voice before sighing and shutting the door once Alexander was through it. Walking back over to her set behind the counter she started filing away the paperwork that Thana and Nigel had brought in. Gathering it up she unlocked the door and headed to the back to file it away, an office door just inside the door leading to the back. The door closed behind her as she entered. (This will be about the time that Amelia drops off Admin.)

Back in Gunny's office the man nodded at Thalia's thanks. "We have monthly visits to the graveyard for upkeep and visitation for those that are interested if you wish to return at one point, sign up is in the Church," he said in passing as he made a few notes on the file he was looking at. His head lifted slightly to Alexander and he nodded. "Yes, he is in his office, or should be. If not check out the back door," he said motioning further down the hallway.

Turning his attention back to Thalia, Gunny answered directly. "Monroe, Hunter." Looking back down at file he went back to writing. "Three days time if we can organize the council. A week if not. Court Martial's are public hearings, all interested may attend and may voice concerns or questions at that time." Dotting a few i's and crossing a few t's he looked back to her. "Both of you are off duty for the evening, return tomorrow at the same time to continue. And Alexander, glad to see you seem no worse for the wear after the fall."

Down the hallway the General had indeed been in his office but he was stepping out. Closing his office door as he exited it and locking it before heading towards the backdoor of the building.

Hospital/Medical (B): "Well this is going great," Mary scoffed as she set the planter down and watched as it seemed like fate had decided that Lisa was going to remain exactly where she was for the duration of the outbreak. That was until Doc had seemed to reach his limit of having someone planted on his chest. One arm went behind Lisa and the other swooped under her knees. In one swift motion he lifted her off him, sat up, stood with her in his arms and then set her down. The majority of the dirt that had been covering most of them fell to the floor and created a much bigger mess. "God damn it Michael!" Mary groaned motioning at the dirt everywhere.

Doc rolled his eyes as he took a step back from Lisa and started dusting his body off. "Oh you don't like dirt?" he said with a smirk before he leaned over and started shaking the dirt out of his hair towards Mary. She smacked his head and took a step back. Laughing Michael shrugged a bit. "It'll wash, chill."

"Yeah, well y'all wash this shit, I'm out," she said picking up the planter and shoving it at Michael before storming out of the building. Her shift was over anyways. She beelined it towards the general housing area to get out of her scrubs for the day.

Michael just shook his head towards Mary. "So, any real injuries I need to check?" he asked with concern. Sure Lisa had seemed alright but still she had taken a tumble. Right onto him. Lifting his scrubs he started to do a self check just to make sure nothing had gotten cracked. On this rib cage was a faded tattoo. A simple tombstone with soldier boots and dog tags, words read Sergeant Gerald Pricket - Soldier. Medic. Husband.

(This would be about the time that Amelia comes into Medical to drop off supplies.)

Mechanics (K): "Once done, off duty for evening," Mizrahi said Ash and Ted left the shop.

Roy was just standing there for a moment before following up with, "good luck."

"Now, back to what I was saying," Volts pipped in.

"I gotta take a shit," Roy said and walked to the bathroom, slamming the door behind him. Mizrahi had to hide his chuckles as he dropped what he was doing and slipped back under the truck in the shop. Volts was left there and pouted before storming off into the Fabrication half of the shop.

Education Center (M): Outside the main building of the Education center was another bulletin board. On it were various papers and sign up sheets. Out of all the classes listed ones handling weapons and self defense was missing. Seemed there was an open spot on the corkboard where it could have been but it wasn't there currently.

Inside the main building were a few people heading out for the day, an older couple was discussing the black plague as they walked towards the exit of the building. There was a circle of chairs in the main area where nearly half a dozen were seated with papers everywhere, they seemed to be a study group going over a chemistry lesson and working out the labs they had to do the next day.

Down the hallway there were numerous doors with post it notes on them that marked what classes where in each during which times. Some of the doors were highly decorated with things one would see in an Elementary school - hand prints of kids turned into different animals, themes different areas of study, even pictures of the classes together. It was all rather wholesome.

That was until "FUCKING HELL WOMAN!" came down the hall from a room that had it's door open. It was Maddoc yelling.

"Don't you start with me Macsen," the Professor warned back. Whatever they had been arguing about was at an end, or perhaps just a beginning as Macsen stormed out and started heading for the exit. Shaking her head she sat back down behind her desk and picked up a stack of papers she was in the middle of grading.

Chapel (V): In the chapel, Daytona has long ago dropped off the Padre. Joaquin got off the bus with him before she drove off. The two are sitting on the front steps of the chapel facing the ocean and looking out over the water. They both have a brown bottle of something they are drinking from and every so often Joaquin is taking a puff off a cigarette. "You need to tell her," Padre says to him.

Joaquin nods slightly and lowers his head. "I knoweth what I needeth to doth but finding the courage to visage such as the lady is putting a weight on mine own heart. So longeth I has't not did lay eyes on mine own blood and anon I feareth 'twill runneth bitter cold shouldst the lady knoweth." Pausing he shook his head and looked over to the Padre. "Bid me I am w'rrying f'r nothing"

There was a small understanding smile that came to Atticus's face as he wrapped an arm around Joaquin and pulled him in. "Yer worryin' for nothin," he assured Joaquin before kissing his forehead.

Inside Jail (AA): Downstairs in the actual cells things are calm and even. Hunter will be starting to feel the hunger more but this isn't anything he hasn't dealt with before. More of a "I could really eat" feeling than a true hunger when one hasn't eaten for days or even weeks.

Upstairs Ted heads in and it met with Cage standing right there inside. "Abut damn time Ted and.." he started before hearing Ash reporting in. Ted hadn't said anything more but Ash had. "Now that's more like it!" he chuckled before motioning for them to follow him. Heading over to a steel door he unlocked it and pulled the heavy door open. "Down here," he added before heading down, his heavy boot steps were easily heard down in the cells themselves.

Ted shrugged and followed. Coming down after Cage, he rounded the corner and stopped as he spotted the scene. "What the hell? Fucker finally snap?" he asked. He had heard a little but hadn't had time to get all the information.

"Yeah, figure he thought if he hurt himself enough I'd let him out or open the gate. Rammed his head one too many times," Cage said dismissively before glancing towards Hunter. "Hopefully that one has more brains than he did," he added before turning around and eying the two. "Ted you know the drill, Holloway, you're new so let me break it down. Even if he starts choking to death you don't go near his cell. You stay the hell back and out of arms length. You get taken, that's on you," he warned before turning and unlocking the cell where the brain matter was.

"I got him Cage," Ted said with half an eye roll. Cage scowled but walked off. The door upstairs slammed shut as he left and the sound of the lock being turned could be heard echoing down there. Ted sighed and pulled out a pack of smokes, lighting one up he took a deep puff. "Anyone want one?" he asked looking at Ash first and then Hunter.

Thana had no problem leading Nigel over to Education and get him signed up for some classes. That was until he asked her what she normally did when she was off work. The question itself wasn't anything bad, it just caught her off guard and she wasn't sure exactly how to answer it. That much was evident from the expression on her face. Like she was confused to what the question even meant. There was a long moment of her trying to get her brain to function. Several times she held up a finger like she had figured out an answer only to lower it as her face went through more than it's fair share of expressions.

There was a chuckle that left her lips and she finally through her hands up in defeat. "Well dog my cats, I don't know," she finally admitted before turning and starting to walk towards the education center. "It's just since I woke up here I either pent my time recovering or getting ready to leave," she followed up as she crossed the street. "Then I was back on the road so there wasn't any off time." That was easy to understand by anyone these days. If you weren't in the middle of a safe zone you didn't have time off, even sleeping was a risk that sometimes wasn't worth it.

Getting to the board outside of education Thana sighed and looked over to Nigel. "Then I got back and it was quarantine again. So this is my first night off really," she said with a chuckle. Shrugging again she looked at the board and her brows furrowed. "Well mule muffins, it ain't here. Let's check with the Professor, she'll know what's up," Thana added with a motion towards the door.

Heading inside the air conditioning hit her and she breathed it in. She needed a shower but that could wait. She spotted the older couple and stepped out of their way. Making her way past the study group she topped in her tracks when she heard her uncle yell. She gave a glance towards Nigel but didn't turn around to leave. Seeing her uncle storm out of the office she wasn't even about to ask. "So, Professors office is that one," she said, letting Nigel take the lead since he was the one doing the sign up. She gave a little motion to him to go ahead. "Don't worry, I got yer back."

Okay, she could do this. There wasn't anything to it. She had done this run hundreds of times before. Hell today was even easier since half of the town was covered by Amelia. As long as she didn't mess anything up and Nikki didn't have to go back to fix things it meant she should be done in like half the time, especially considering she wouldn't personally being having to drop things off at the Armory and having to deal with Bass. It wasn't that she didn't like Bass but after this morning it was clear to her that last night had meant a lot more to him than it did her. Sure she knew he had a small thing for her but she had made it more than clear that she wasn't interested in him that way. Not her problem. He knew what he was doing.

Shaking off the thought Nikki quickly made it over to the Desalination Facility over on the water. It was a quick enough drop off. Clean rags and the like. Most places needed similar with a few variations here and there. Putting the brake on the cart, Nikki jogged back to supply and grabbed another cart. Time to get to the chapel. It was one of the further places to drop things off but no where in town was too terribly far. Far less walking from point a to point b than a lot of places these days.

Hearing people talking as she rounded the corner she spotted Atticus and Joaquin. Her brow shot up and she grinned. "I KNEW IT!" she exclaimed. It wasn't any secret in town who was gay, who wasn't, and who was inbetween. It was hard to keep a secret in this place and people really didn't try. There had been rumors though for forever that certain people were dating. It was like a place your bets things - who would be dating who - who would break up - etc. In the back of all that had been that Joaquin and Padre had a thing going but no one could confirm, that was until now. At least that was how she saw it. She could be wrong but she doubted it as she jogged over with the cart. "Oh this is too perfect."

Notes: Alright, we are going to move to a general rule of "there are npc's about on the streets and such doing their own thing" Or in buildings like the Mess during Meal Time. You all are free to speak to random general (ones not listed in the Master Grid) NPC's - if you need answers for specific things let me know other wise the people are pretty open and will give directions or smile and nod towards new comers. We will take it little by little and as long as you start using them and things go smoothly we will start the transition for you to start embedding your own npc's into the mix. ^^

Also, we are moving away from the 5/10 square rule for walking and running. Think you all are good to just judge yourself if your character can realistically get from point A to point B during the time that is covered in a given post. Let's see how it goes. When in doubt ask, if at end of counter or in a hurry it is better to default to covering less ground in a post than too much.

Administration (A): Whatever hostility Sandra had had by being interrupted by Thalia coming into the building and messing with her own personal Fuck Hunt washed away when Alexander came into game. She smiled brightly and the sugar that laced her voice could have put a diabetic into a coma. "Oh my, well isn't this just the most pleasurable of surprises." Her lips seemed to pucker and if ever a Cougar had the look of devouring a meal made for two it was now. "I do so love a blending of the generations." It was obvious she was completely ignoring the fact that Alexander had asked about Gunny.

As Nigel made his retreat she scowled but it didn't last long. "Oh I will see you soon, dinner is in just a bit and then there is DESSERT!" she yelled after him before turning her attention back to Alexander. "Then again appetizers are nice as well."

Back at Gunny's Office the door opened. Gunny was standing there and he nodded. Turning he left the door open and motioned for her to come on in. "Leave it open," he added as he walked back to his desk and sat down. There was paper work there, neat but a decent amount. "Did you have the time you needed?" he asked as he picked up his pen and looked back down at what he had been dealing with. He wasn't hiding it, it was an open folder, red folder, inside it was a form and in large black letters it had - Court Martial - typed out. Reading more than that would take some rather obvious peaking and leaning over to figure out more.

Hospital/Medical (B): Things are not going good from what can be seen and now people are starting to stare. Doc was half a second from throwing Lisa off him, but stopped as he heard a voice. A loud, demonic voice. "WHAT THE FUCK!" It was SB herself. The small group of onlookers seemed to part like the red seas as she stormed up the stairs and towards the scene. "Oh for fucks sake, let me," she said swatting anyone in her way away and putting her hands on the pot, "on three," and her foot on Lisa's hip to give her some leverage. "One, two... (Str check for SB with 40 modifier in her favor).. There was no 3. Mary yanked and the thing came off Lisa's heady finally. Dirt poured out fully now and all over the place as Mary took several quick steps back.

"Can you now get off me please?" Doc asked as he seemed to have resigned to not only be flat on his back but covered in dirt with a woman on top of him. (Dex Check to Lisa to get up on her own, 10 modifier against her - remember this means add the modifier to the roll itself. If she passes great, if not STR check to Manny, 10 modifier in his favor, to help her up if he wants. If she passes and Manny doesn't need to help her up he can do the same check to help Doc up.)

Mechanics (K): Over in the garage Mizrahi was sitting on a stool de-greasing a piston, listening to Volts and Roy. "I ain't sayin' it was like that but it was like that," Volts said with a cheesy grin.

"Uh-huh, right," Roy responded as he crossed his arms over his chest and rolled his eyes.

"Oh my fucking god, that is the last time I am late to the Professors class!" a young man yelled as he came out of the womans bathroom and pulled his bandana off his face.

"Yeah it will," Roy chuckled before glancing towards Ash. He nodded slightly as Mizrahi finally took notice.

"Bathroom done. Have to clean Jail," Mizrahi said

"Yeah, Ted take Holloway over to the Warden and help him knock it out fast," Roy said

"Anything to get away from that bathroom," Ted said. The bathroom was clean and done now but that didn't erase the memories.

Assembly (P): Once Alexander was off the bus, Atticus climbed back in and Daytona shut the door. Putting the bus into drive she pulled out and started heading towards the Chapel to drop him off before she put the bus back in holding with the other vehicles. Joaquin took a seat and for the first time since the funeral detail had started he looked to relax some. He needed to catch up with his sister. Hopefully tonight now that things were calming down.

General Supply (R): Auntie looked over to Amelia as she came back in. The girl was quick with her words and seemed even faster to get away. Auntie quirked a brow as Amelia scurried off before making a mark down on the time sheet she carried on her before making sure she was behind the counter and bellowing out. "Make sure to get those deliveries done BEFORE y'all clock out for dinner!" The words seemed to echo through the place as Auntie turned and walked back into the back of the place. A few long silent moments passed before a scream came out of the back followed by a slew of very colorful curses about a mouse.

Inside Jail (AA):
So what is going on with the Jail? Nothing! Absolutely nothing! Rolled for event, got a 7, you are in the clear. This is a good thing, usually, but considering Hunter is locked up, can't see or hear anything outside of the place, and is stuck in a cell looking at a puddle of blood that is drying with a tooth in it and brain matter on the wall maybe it would have been better if something had actually happened. Sadly for now, nope. Nothing!

Thana watched as Alexander passed her and half smirked half chuckled. "Right, see ya Mugsy," she said before shaking her head some. Those two were an interesting pair. Then again from what Thana could remember they always had been. She doubted if the world had remained whole those two would have ever exchanged words but then again how many of these people were the type she would have actively avoided if things were still like they had been before the world fell apart. Looking at Ash she knew she would have avoided him like the plague. Sappers were well known assholes that had a long tendency to be either racist or misogynistic or both.

Turning her head Thana looked over to Nigel when he came over. Would she avoided him as well? He was a teacher and someone deep into their own interests, even if that interest was Rome. He'd probably have been someone she would have gotten a drink during college. She had an inward chuckle, if things were different it would have been more likely for her to date Nigel than Ash. That was a twist. Shaking off the thought though she laughed. "She's got your sent like a coonhound and she's gonna tree ya sooner or later," Thana warned.

Biting her bottom lip she turned her attention back to Ash and nodded. "Either way I'll see ya tonight," Thna said with a grin coming to her features. She liked that idea. Seeing him tonight. Seeing him every night even if they didn't during the day. Curling up together. It was a precious thing, to have someone like that, to be with. It wasn't something she was going to take for granted. Her head tilted slightly as Ash left. It was rather obvious she was appreciating the view of him leaving. The man definitely didn't suffer from Nas'itol.

the bus pulled out and Thana noted that Joaquin was taking a seat in the back. That man was an odd one. Looking back to Nigel she shrugged. "Well we are off duty now for the night. Got any plans? Sign ups are in the education building if'n ya want me to show ya," she offered.

Nikki smiled towards Amelia. She was glad she was able to help the girl find something to wear. She wished she had been able to do the same for her dad when he died but no. She left his body where he hell, he probably rotted there or was eaten by walkers. Either way there was no grave and no funeral. Shaking the thought away she followed Amelia into the building and the door close behind her. She went back to the carts and began to double check things while Amelia checked in with Auntie.

Hearing the woman bellow made Nikki roll her eyes. "No, I was thinkin' about puttin' it off until tomorrow just so ya'd have a real reason to bitch about shit," Nikki mocked under her breath, adding in a thick accent to sound like auntie where all the words had at least two syllables.

Looking over to Amelia she picked up a piece of paper on one of the carts and handed it to her. "I'll hit this side of the town, you hit Water Repair through Enlisted Housing. We'll meet back up here to get the back areas. Shouldn't take long. You just wheel the assigned carts to the buildings, leave them and get the next. Armory they will have to buzz you in, just knock. Officers will be locked, leave it by the door."

Then Nikki heard Auntie bitching again and this time it was about Mr. Jingles. "Shit, better run," she said as her eyes widened. Grabbing a cart, Nikki took off. Her butt hitting the door to push it open. Slowly she turned the cart around and started to check the road before heading across the street and south west towards her first destination, Desalination. The bus was already gone and it seemed only Thana and Nigel were left from what remained of the funeral detail.

Notes: Nice work on the rolls last round peeps! Everything looks to have gone well without a hitch. Okay, some of the rolls weren't the best but you all worked well with the system, even with the modifiers in place, and that was the biggest concern. Glad to see it worked well and it was able to be handled by each of you individually instead of having to message for roll results each time. Seems the "more complicated" process is working to streamline matters over all. This is good! Means we can start doing more and moving faster since you all can rely on the rolls more often. YAY! Have a cookie! Well actually, mark down a 1 day extension card for each of yourselves. Well done!

Administration (A): Rolodex looked over as Thana ran out the door and quirked a brow. "Huh?" she muttered to herself before looking back at Nigel and smiling slightly. "Well it looks like I have you all alone now, isn't that wonderful?" she asked in a sultry tone. She started to lean in some but had to pull back quick as Thalia came into the office. She grumbled slightly under her breath. "Yeah, he's in his office, go on in," she said as she walked over to the door and unlocked it for her. Clicking her nails against the frame she held it open for Thalia as she waited for the woman to step through. The woman was messing up her flirting and that just wouldn't do.

Standing by the door of the bus, Atticus was waiting for everyone to get off the bus. Only Alexander was left before Joaquin could exit. Joaquin was just standing there quietly as he waited. "Hey, Daytona, before you put the bus up, give me a lift to the church?" he asked.

"Yeah, sure," she said and Atticus nodded, hoping back on and taking a seat in the front row.

Hospital/Medical (B): Thankfully for Lisa things could have turned out a lot worse and they didn't. Okay, they aren't exactly awesome right now either. She has a planter stuck on her head and well, Doc is having his own problems. He got knocked down with Lisa in his lap to start this thing and now he's kind of pinned under her. "Manny, get her off me, or the thing off her, or I don't know," Doc said as he started to wiggle and try to scoot out from under the woman. (Strength Check to Lisa to get it off again, +20 modifier. If she passes, great, it pops off. If not, up to Manny - same roll - Strength. If he goes to get the planter off +20 modifier, if he just goes to get her off Doc, no modifier. Can only do one.)

Assembly (P): Outside of Bus by the assembly pole things are busy but calm. People out in town were stopped and looking because of the whole near miss of the kid running into the road but they were starting to get back to their work or recreational time. Bass spotted Nikki standing there outside of Supply and gave her a small smile before it went away. "Have to check in.." he said reluctantly before double timing it towards the armory supply instead of crossing the street to go talk to her. He glanced over his shoulder more than once before going into the building.

Inside Jail (AA): "No, just asking," Cage said before glancing over at the puddle of blood. At Hunters next question he grumbled. "It's called a job. It ain't mine. It was assigned to Supply, they need to take care of it. If you can't do your fucking job you shouldn't be here. Simple as that. Personal fucking responsibility. We each have our job we do our job, simple as that. Shit keeps working. People don't do their fucking job others pick up the slack, more slack off, less of a persons real job gets done, shit falls apart. Fuck that," he said before heading back to the stairs. "Hold tight, gonna make a call," he added at the top of the stairs yelling down before the door slammed shut.

Standing outside of Administration, Thana took a few steps towards where the bus was. Her eyes darting from one person to the next as they exited. Spotting Amelia and the others exits she gave a slight nod towards them. They weren't who she was looking for though. Neither was Manny but she nodded just the same. Even Thalia wasn't who she was looking for but she smirked a bit. It wasn't a flat out smirk, her brow quirked a bit at the story teller mention. The man hadn't exactly woven any stories around her but then again they really didn't know each other well. Well enough and such but those little details still had a long way to go. "Yeah, dinner," she said to Thalia as she passed by.

When she spotted Ash step off she let out a breath she hadn't been aware she had been holding. Not a bated breath thing but more of she was worried, even though she knew she probably shouldn't be, and was relieved to see him fine with her own two eyes. She half reached out to him but stopped at the mention of on-duty. Technically she was, well until she officially looked at Nigel and told him they were done for the day. They're job was done and they're paperwork was filed. They were off-duty in the grand scheme of things. Yet Ash wasn't and she knew that. An understanding nod came from her as she stood there. "Well then ya better report in," she said with a slight tug at the corner of her lips.

"Speaking of which, we're done for the day so time to go clean up," she added as she wiped some sweat from the back of her neck. A nice cool shower was just what she needed right then. Probably a good thing it was going to be alone because she doubted she would get washed if Ash was off duty as well right then. "We're off-duty Nigel, back on tomorrow morning. Same time," she said as she started walking off. It hadn't dawned on her to turn around and see if he was there. She just started headed towards the officers quarters.

Nikki wasn't able to see who got off the bus when considering the door of the bus was on the other side of the street from her facing the Administration building, so there she stood watching. She had spotted Bass earlier and as he smiled her stomach knotted. Fucking post apocalypse making her face a one night stand. At least before the world went to shit if she had done this he wouldn't know where she was or be close. She could have just been another face in the crowd. Damn having to get to know people. It wasn't always a bad thing but the morning after wasn't the most fun.

Nikki, like Thana, let out a breath she hadn't known she was holding in but for a whole different reason. She was glad to hear that Bass had to check in weapons and see him going in the other direction. She almost didn't notice Amelia and her eyes widened as the girl nearly tripped stopping. Yet she was glad to see her back. One she liked Amelia so far and two it gave her a buffer between Bass if he came back.

"Yeah, she's inside, she's been bitching up a storm today..." Nikki admitted before turning and looking back at the General Supply Building. "Just check in, she should be in the back, and then we can get these carts out. With your help shouldn't take long," she added looking back with a smile and popping a bubble with her gum. "Glad it helped, the dress looks good on ya." Walking back to the supply building Nikki opened the door and held it open for Amelia.

Location: Camp Mexico Beach

Weather Forecast: Dawn at 5:57 A.M. - Dusk at 7:41 P.M. - High: 87F, Low: 72F - Winds SW at 4mph - Gusting to 10mph - No rain - Cloud Cover: 26% - Visibility: 9miles.

Notes: We are done with the funeral and everyone is now back within the walls of Camp Mexico Beach so henceforth unless otherwise noted all characters are in the same moment in time: 5:30 P.M. start of post. Take note of where people are please as we move forward. Remember 5 grid spaces if walking, 10 if running per turn. Be realistic is something happens in one place if your character would know or have knowledge. I recommend if you haven't already keep notes of what your character personally knows and what you know, especially since we all are playing two characters: it is easier to keep things straight.

Once we time jump forward a bit I will open the Rp to new people. New characters by existing Rpers will only be open to those who keep a non-pushing counter: 1 'you're on day 7' a month will keep you from this, so if you are interested please make sure to show you can handle your current Rp load. ^_^

Also below are some rolls, if I call for a modifier in your favor you add it to your ability or skill score that round. If I say the modifier is against you, you add the modifier to your actual roll. (Example: roll against dex, 20 modifier in your favor and your dex is normally a 16 - it means this round alone your dex score is 36. If it roll against dex, 20 modifier against you and you roll a 50 the roll total this round is 70) If you have questions ask, ;) (And no, do not place abilities in skill slot in header)

Bus (CMB Eastern Gate -> Assembly): Alright bus folks, the outer gate opens and what is general procedure starts to happen: outer gate opens, pull in, outer gate closes, inner gate opens, pull through, inner gate closes. Once that is all done Daytona keeps driving and heads back to the Assembly Flag Pole outside of the Administration Building, she gives a honk as a kid runs out into the road chasing a soccer ball. Slamming the breaks she comes to a stop right before hitting the kid. Everyone Roll against your characters Dex: If you rolls your dex or lower you pass and manage to catch yourself before your characters face plows into the seat in front of you. Tatiana manages to catch herself but Jack doesn't, his face hits the seat. Bass's ass hits the seat where he was standing, Atticus's foot misses a step by the door and he barely catches himself, Joaquin just stands there as if nothing happened.

There is cussing, in Spanish, by all four of the group. Mostly a lot of God Damn it's, What the Fucks, Jesus Christs, and one "biting of the thumb" by take a wild guess before Daytona waves the kid by and gets back to driving. Pulling up to the Assembly spot, she puts the bus in park and opens the door. Hot air rushes in as Atticus looks at the group. "Alright, it's 1730 hours, 5:30, dinner starts in 30, report back to your leads. Riley and Tati, you know what to do, we're done. See you all at dinner or later on," he says before stepping off the bus. Joaquin stands at the back of the bus waiting on the others to exit as Bass gathers up the weapons and exits the bus and heads east on the main road.

Nikki is in Supply, Lisa is in Medical, and Thana and Nigel are in Administration. Roll against each characters Perception to see if they notices the sounds of squealing bus tires out in the street. These are pretty loud but things are doing on and you are in buildings. Your roll will come with a 40 modifier in your favor.

Administration (A): Rolo took his hand and held onto it, she wasn't letting go. It wasn't like she had an iron grip on it but it was clear she was trying to hold on as she stepped out from behind the counter, walked closer to Nigel and batted her over mascara'ed eyes up at him. "Why yes, the pleasure will be all yours," she said, more than missing exactly what he had said and directing it to what she wanted him to say, at least in her mind. "And I'll be happy to walk you through each and ever last little detail of that nasty paper work. I can even put in some overtime and long overnight hours if you would like, it's no trouble at all." Her accent seemed to get thicker and thick with each word she uttered a she slipped closer and closer. She didn't even notice the bus tires squealing outside.

Hospital/Medical (B): Things for Lisa seem to be going alright. She is heading back up and out of the basement, everything is cleaned up, her job is done for the day, and she managed to start on her new job. All in all a great day. Which is probably why Lady Luck decided to rear her ugly head. Stairs? Nah, all fine. No slips, spills, or head hits. Yet as soon soon as her foot hits the main floor it seems like everything goes wrong. Doc is rushing by, not looking where he is going. He nearly runs into her but stops and just dodges her. Instead he runs into a fern, the plant tips over and sends potted plant and dirt all towards Lisa. Roll against Dexterity to avoid. Roll Lisa's dexterity or lower and she gets out of the way. If she rolls over it - roll again and refer to the table for results.

And no Doc doesn't hear what is going on outside of the building, neither does anyone else in the area because well they are watching the show unfold. lol

01-60
61-90
91-99
100
Jumping to the left Lisa doesn't dodge the dirt, it hits her and her face but she is standing and keeps herself from falling either down the stairs behind her or over Doc in front of her. Could have been a lot worse.
Instead of jumping back Lisa for some odd reason trips over her own two feet and falls forward, right onto of Doc with her face right in the planter - which now is stuck on her head and pouring out the remaining dirt on and down her shoulders as she tries to get it off. Roll against STR to remove it. ( 20 Modifier in your favor)
Lisa takes a step back and ends up loosing her footing. She falls back down the stairs and onto her ass, sliding backwards to the first landing and sliding back until her head and back hit the all behind her. Roll against FIT to stay conscious.
Might as well yell God Fucking Damn It because as soon as that dirt starts flying Lisa over compensates, takes a running leap backwards and flings herself D O W N the stairs. Hit me up in messages because this is going to be a long set of rolls in hopes of saving your ass.


General Supply (R): Auntie has finally shut up about asking when Nikki would be done. Well, not exactly. She isn't done, she is just done yelling from the back. Apparently whatever she was finding so interesting about that damn tea cup has passed and she is back out front with her usual loving self going on and on about how Nikki needs to finish up. In fact she is on a roll so much that she doesn't even seem to notice the loud tire squealing outside of the building on the main road of town.

Inside Jail (AA): The door opens at the top of the stairs and one can easily hear heavy foot falls coming down the steps. It isn't like whoever it is was trying to hide their presence and the place with its concrete floor and walls does cause every last little thing to echo in the room. Yet even if one couldn't hear the foot steps they could surely as hell hear Cage mumbling loudly, almost like a drunk whisper level, as he walks down the stairs. "I'll get you a fucking person in there to clean it up just hold your horses. Hold my horses? I have dead fucker on my jail floor and he tells me to hold my horses. If I had a horse to hold I would probably make horsechops, asshat... Probably gonna be some new asshat that doesn't know bleach from ammonia like last time..." he is ranting as he comes around the corner and spots Hunter. "Did you eat lunch?" he asks out of no where.

Thana Martin
Location: Administration (A) (Inside-> Outside)

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
It was truly taking every last bit of restraint that Thana had acquired over her nearly forty years of life, multiple war zones, five years on the road thanks to this post apocalyptic wonderland, and so much more to keep from letting out a slew of laughs that would have looked very similar to Dick Van Dyke in Mary Poppins as he was singing I Love To Laugh, complete with Goose like Honk laugh to end it. Her eyes were watering as she pinched her nose and chewed on the inside of her mouth, it was going to be raw at this rate and she really didn't want to have to explain to Doc that Rolo had caused mouth lesions, that would just add to this whole thing. It was one thing when she was hitting on people her age but Nigel was half the womans age probably, young enough to be her son, maybe grandson if she was a teen mom.

Looking down Thana just went back to paper work and tried to drown it out, every so often she had to either bite on the end of ehr pen, her tongue, look helplessly at Nigel or act like she had just hit her shin on the counter to keep letting the giggles that were creeping up edge out. It was like God himself, or herself, finally felt her stomach, which was hurting now from holding it in, had thought she had enough. The sound of squealing tires, those rang clear in Thana's ear and her head snapped around. "Well, shit, I better check on that!" Thana said quickly as she dropped her pen.

"Duty calls!" Thana turned and beelined it, limping but with purpose as she darted towards the door. "Nigel! Come on, could be something people need help with!" Thana added looking back at the man wide eyed and giving him an exit. Thing was Thana was a little worried. Ash had gone on a bus with Daytona and others to the grave yard, they should be getting back now, squealing tires worried her.

Rushing outside she spotted the kid and the bus before the kid ran off and the bus came towards Admin, assembly was right there. She let out a breath she hadn't known she was holding as the door opened and Atticus stepped off followed by Bass. Biting her bottom lip she stood there, the heat finally getting her attention now that her fear something was wrong started to go away. Swatting away a fly she kept an eye out for Ash.

Nikki really wanted to tell Auntie to shut the fuck up. She was tired of hearing it. It was all she heard since she got back. She probably would have been done if the old bat had shut her trap for more than twenty seconds. It was driving her nuts. Maybe she should punch the woman, she'd at least get locked up for the evening while they let her cool down. Not that she really needed to calm down she just wanted peace and quiet. Then she remembered that Hunter had been taken off to the jail. Would it still be quiet if she was down there? Would he start in one what he was saying at lunch or go back to not saying a word.

Popping her fingers Nikki was seriously considering throwing a punch, then she heard the tires squealing. "Shit! What was that?!" she snapped before turning around and running towards the door. It wasn't like she was really worried, she had heard plenty of sets of tires squeal to a stop around here. If there wasn't a scream or something crashing along with it, chances were things were okay. Kids had a habit of not looking before they crossed the street these days but one could hardly blame them, it wasn't like there was a lot of traffic.

As the heat hit her face Nikki nearly instantly regretted her decision but there was no turning back. Well there was but she wasn't. She would rather deal with the Florida Summer than Batshits Rants. It seemed like everything was alright. Bus drove to assembly and people started getting off. Atticus first and then Bass. "Frick!" she muttered under her breath. There was no hiding. She was standing right there and he was heading in her direction carrying duffle bags of what she could only assume was the weapons that were issued earlier that day for the detail. Maybe he would just pass on by, and if not, Amelia should be on that bus and she can direct her attention towards her! Yeah, that would work!

Notes: Alright, we are moving forward now so this will basically be a filler post from me. Things at the end of this round are lined up across the board and it will be closing in on the 1730 hours mark today in RP. For non-military peeps, that means it's 5:30 P.M (half an hour before dinner starts.) Dinner is a single shift thing that runs from 1800 to 2000 hours, people come in to get food when they can during this time. Like breakfast it isn't a shift meal thing. As dusk is at 1921 (7:21p.m), this means that the sun is starting to get lower in the sky but hasn't set yet and you are still in the hottest part of the day. Note that in the south it doesn't start cooling down until the sun gets below the horizon.

Hospital/Medical (B): Lisa is set for the this round. She will finish up her cleaning by the end of this posting round and be able to get things put away. Which is great. There are no issues, no spills, no problems. Everything lined up and such so that she was able to shave some time off her cleaning. Maybe she is in a good mood, who knows. Job is done at the end of the round and she can start heading out of the basement. YAY! Manny should be happy when she sees him again.

Inside Jail (AA): Well it seems that Lady Luck likes Hunter this round. That little bugger sneaks forward a little and comes out of the shadows into the light. Turns out it isn't a rat, it isn't even a mouse. It's a fucking hamster. Grey with a black stripe down his back and a little round fluffy butt. It looks at hunter, its little whiskers twitching before turning back around and sneaking back out of the cell behind the leg of the cot where it came in from. Seems like Hunter just lucked out and he can breath again. (This also means his modifier for fear is gone and if something should happen again with his fear he would get a new roll about it.) Other than that things are quiet and calm.

As there is nothing in the cell to denote time and no seeing light outside as their are no windows, knowing time is gonna be hard. Roll against FIT. If he fails (rolls higher than his fit) the roll his stomach will let him know it is probably close to dinner. If he passes (rolls at or lower than fit) his stomach isn't having hunger pains yet so no telling what time it is.

Administration (A): Rolodex looked up and then sighed as she kept filing her nails. From the way things were looking right then, between the air conditioning, the secretary filing her nails, the paper work, it was almost as if the world hadn't fallen apart. "Yer the first, think people are behind because of all the new folks and the funeral detail, usually have the distillery in by now at least," she said checking the time. Looking over at Nigel, she smiled and extended her hand to him. "Well hello there, I'm Rolodex but you can call me Sandra," she said in a full on southern accent that seemed to be slightly forced, either from trying to sound too much like Scarlet or putting into too much sweetness.

General Supply (R): Everything is calm in Supply. Auntie yells from the back every so often for Nikki, "YOU DONE YET?" It repeats over and over and over again but she doesn't come out of the back to actually check. Other than that, things are calm, one can see out the windows of Supply to see people milling about and heading this way and that. It's still hot as hell outside so there aren't too many out and about.

CMB Graveyard (Bus): Bass took the weapon and shells from Manny, nodding slightly. "No worries, sir, emotional day," he said in passing as he checked the weapon and put it away in the bag.

Once Manny was loaded up, the last of those keeping watching outside the bus loaded up. Everyone took their same positions as they had on the way out. Atticus in the front, Bass in the center, Joaquin in the back. Atticus heard Thalia say thank you but it wasn't clean who she was speaking to or just in general. Instead of asking he just gave a simple nod of his head before he started talking. "Alright Daytona, take us home," he said.

"Right," Daytona said as she closed the door to the bus and put it into gear. The bus rolled slowly forward and they started to drive. Bass and Atticus had to hop out at the gate to open it and let the bus out before closing it again and locking it up. After that, and they were back on the bus, they were off.

"When we get back make sure to check in with your supervisors and see if you have any duties left to tend to before you are released for dinner. Dinner will run from 1800 to 2000 hours. Some of you might have work after, don't know your schedules yet. Oh, Tatiana, Riley, you two finished up so you are clear for the evening. Consider yourselves reported in," Atticus said to the group in general.

Tatiana looked from where she was staring out the window over to Atticus and nodded. Jack pulled her a little closer but she pushed away, she wanted her hands free just in case. She was always on edge lately, and it seemed especially outside of the walls. "Anyone know what's fer dinner?" Bass asked as he zipped the bag up and held on as the bus hit a bump.

"No clue, probably more fish considerin' Guy and Medic got back to town," Daytona said as she turned down onto the main road and the wall to CMB could be seen. "Almost home folks," she added. Pulling up to the gate she stopped the bus and radioed in. "Funeral Detail back, all green on our end."

Thana nodded slightly. The kids in this place were getting a hell of an education. She had to give her father and grandfather props for part of that. It was surely a full community effort but knowing her family she was sure they had put a lot in place or at least suggested it. She had met others in town and it was clear that many had different ideas of what was important. It seemed like there wasn't anything left out. Probably was in the easier days when you had to focus on pure immediate survival above anything else. Now they had a wall, they had people, they had a steady food source and shelter. Things were good, so they could start planning more long term.

What would long term be these days? Thana for a time thought long term was a week once the world fell. Then she met Ash years down the road, and long term was whatever the day count was at the time they were apart. One day, then two, then three, then months, then more than a year. Now, long term was two or more years down the road to her mind. It seemed her Grandfather was planning on much longer than that for long term. These children were being brought up in the new normal. You were raised learning your 3 R's (Reading, Righting, 'Rithmetic) and now your 3 S's and it wasn't shit, shower, and shave, it was scavenging, surviving, and slaughtering.

Though had times changed that much or just gone back in time? A little bit of both as far as Thana was concerned. Yet she didn't think on it much longer as she found out they were the first in the day. She was about to say something to defend the slower pace but then Rolodex turned her attention to Nigel and Thana had to bite the inside of her cheek to keep from laughing. She glanced from Rolodex to Nigel and gave the man a look that could only be read as "you poor thing..."

"Working on it!" Nikki yelled back to Auntie. She popped a bubble with her gum as she worked, her eyes kept darting over to the clock on the wall. It was feeling like every minute that ticked by was taking an hour. It was going so slow. It hadn't gone as slow this morning but then again she had Amelia to talk to while they worked. Now she was alone again. She didn't mind working alone but having a new face to talk to did make the time go by faster. Plus it was the end of the day, once these were loaded up they could get them around town and then have dinner, after that they would be done for day. At least she hoped they would. She didn't want to spend extra hours catching up in supply again.

"I have a couple of carts done but not all of them!" Then again, after what had gone down with Bass the night before maybe it would be a good thing if she was stuck in Supply all night. If he tried to turn a one night fun time into something more serious she might end up in a cell next to Hunter. She wondered how the guy was holding up and just what in the hell had happened. She had the dog now and he was taken to the cells. There had to be a story, she'd have to hit up Rolodex to get the fully story. That woman was the worlds worst gossip. Not that she would admit it.

"I'd get done faster if you'd stop asking!!!!" Groaning, Nikki shook her head. Looking back at the clock, she hoped that Amelia would be back soon, she only had a few more carts to get loaded up before she had to start delivering them. It would be a lot faster with an extra person. She had done it alone before but twice the people meant half the time right? Maybe not exactly that but it would be more fun to get it done with two, give her someone to talk to.
