Right, so. Public service announcement.

[the guy on the screen epitomizes scruffy teenager: leather jacket, hair in need of a brush, days worth of stubble on his face. those familiar with peter might think that he seems kind of extraordinarily calm. actually, those unfamiliar with peter might think that too, considering their situation. he doesn't seem happy, exactly, not drugged or faking it, just...really zen.]

Big brown wolf you might see wandering around sometimes? That's me. And yeah, I know the teeth are super impressive, but despite all rumors and recent shenanigans to the contrary, bloodlust is not my personal MO. A wolf is a wolf, though, not a labrador. Don't try to hurt me or touch me while I'm eating and everything will be cool.

End public service announcement.

[he makes to cut the feed and then pauses.]

Oh, and the other guys are okay now. Claws retracted and all that. If they become not okay, do us all a favor and call me along with the local hero squad. That kind of shit is what happens when you bring werewolves to the damn moon.

Right, last thing. Stanley, I still have a bunch of your stuff if you want it.

I will try not to hold it against you.

[almost to herself] Maybe I can find something that isn't . . . what are they serving in that cafeteria anyway?

I'd like to say that I'm a nice guy other than that, but really I'm more the roguish scoundrel type.

[he is so full of bullshit, man.]

Nothing that my mother would consider food, but it's better than going hungry.

But those are my favorite types.

[she's joking . . . sort of]

It tastes like how the hospital smells.

Well then, I'm at your service.

Yeah, 'tastes like hospital' sounds about right. Bet people will get on fixing that eventually. Nobody likes shitty food.

My, I'm honored.

I believe the group I am working with for medical supplies is also working on food as well.

This is me tipping my hat to you.

Logically, anyone going just about anywhere should stop for groceries on the way home. We're probably gonna be here awhile.

How gentlemanly.

Ugh, I know. I am not looking forward to it at all.

One hundred percent.

Me either. Not a huge fan of being stuck inside all the time. I heard they've got some kind of VR stuff that we can mess around with and pretend not to be cooped up here, but that's nothing on the real thing.

Mmm. I much prefer the real thing. A forest sounds lovely right now.

Yeah, it does. Never thought nature was that big a deal till I ended up here and there wasn't any.

Mm . . . I did not give it the proper thought I should have. Now I miss it.

No reason to think about stuff that's just always there until you end up in post-nuclear wasteland. Or, y'know. On the effin moon.

Yes. My thoughts exactly.

I'm not really into the heroism gig, but getting the hell out of here for awhile is kinda a perk.

Mm, I am not much for heroics either.

Seems like a pretty crappy gig, honestly.

I have worked with a few people in my world who enjoyed that sort of thing - we often did not see eye to eye on how to deal with, ah, the various problems we would come across.

I bet. Some people really object to preferring to save your own ass over the asses of others.

Mm, well said.

Balls to them.

[there's a pause, like she's blinking at her tablet in surprise, before she bursts into laughter]

Now there is a saying I've not heard before.

But it's such a good one.

I will have to keep it in mind.

Use it whenever you can.

I will endeavor to do so.
