Hello again, Esilium. Long time no talk-- [Chloe's looking under the weather in terms of wear and tear only; her bright eyes actually bright today for a change. For the first time in months, as a matter of fact.] good god does it feel good to be free again. Never thought I'd be saying those words, but there you have it.

And don't worry, no more lectures on this end. No more daily mutineering announcements: I can catch up on what I missed in lock up by scrolling though the network on my own and I've got a more important issue that needs addressing first. [There's a brief pause before she adds, gently as possible:] Obviously anyone that wants to talk shop about what went down is welcome to, of course. Just-- you know. We're on the fast track to recovery around here from what it looks like, so I'm not about to force anything else down anyone's throats as long as that remains the case.

Thanks, by the way, for not unanimously voting for throwing us all out the airlock. [Nice to know not everyone wants them done in or worse.]


Right, though, to the point. I need someone willing and capable of doing tattoo work. Good tattoo work.

In this case I'm even willing to consider the magical sort so long as nothing additional goes along with it. Not really a fan of curses and poisoned apple nonsense.


Additional text addressed to Vanozza:

not sure if I should be thanking you for this or asking why you of all people are signing up to look after someone like me right now

welcome back

they were talking about parole officers for you guys, how'd that work out. sounds like BS to me but hey at least you're out

also i don't think i've heard anyone on the line ever offer up tattoos but i'll keep a look out

[totallytrustworthy]

dunno yet. not too hot on it but I know the woman managing me so I suppose it has potential

potential to be disastrous as well so who knows

maybe theyll give us a punch card system so it wont feel like having a nanny about

[charming_jerk]

get ten punches and get a free sandwich, that's how these things work right

anyway don't let them give you any shit

we're down on the ground again now so everyone's gonna be busy anyway. we all need to get places to live and it's covered in fucking snow

but hey, no radiation so that's a plus

[totallytrustworthy]

god yes it better

dont worry love I dont plan on diving into anything right over my head. speaking of which when you say find a place you dont mean like build an igloo right

because I am so not doing that

[charming_jerk]

i'm not building a damn igloo but we're gonna have to build something. there's not much out here. tho you could probably build a fucking epic igloo with the amount of snow and ice out there

[totallytrustworthy]

well if you set up something nice let me know yeah

or vice versa. I'm remarkably good at roughing it

[charming_jerk]

i'll admit it, i'm a total city boy so i have no idea what the fuck I'm gonna do

i roughed it for awhile but doing that on city streets as opposed to the goddamn tundra is different

either way if i get any leads i'll let you know

[totallytrustworthy]

consider this a mutual agreement then

if we do well enough down there we might even find the time for a few not dying alone in the wilderness 101 sessions

[charming_jerk]

sounds good

it's possible to stay on the base but tbh i don't want to spend another second in that thing

i'll take my chances with the tundra

1/2

[totallytrustworthy]

you and me both. screw this nightmare and everything its done to the lot of us

2/2

[totallytrustworthy]

can I ask you something?

Re: 2/2

[charming_jerk]

Yeah sure, hit me

[totallytrustworthy]

what do you make of where we are now? on the whole I mean. post incident whole new world sort of thing

[charming_jerk]

man i don't even know. People here are always a lot of talk and no action. lot of talk on the comms about establishing rules and cutting off hands of thieves and bullshit like that. now that we're on the ground again and have a shit ton of work to do, I bet either nothing comes of it or it at least gets delayed for a long ass time. apparently the Initiative here is totally different so any stuff that Transport-Initiative relations committee was doing is going to have to start from scratch, for one thing.

[totallytrustworthy]

delayed is right. I'm also concerned about the initiative team on our side though. if they lose their memories we lose the only solid link weve got

[charming_jerk]

damn, hadn't thought of that. i don't know if anyone has talked to them yet, i'm sure they have. i haven't heard anything

[totallytrustworthy]

Charlie and I messaged them to be sure theyre all right but its been a while now. fairly certain they could use another checkup

honestly the more crew we have assisting them the better this goes for us all
