Grainne knew it. She knew she shouldn't have come here. She knew getting away for a while was a Bad Idea. This place, for all its nice finery and expensive surroundings... was just as unpredictable as any other place.

With a healthy dose of anger, Grainne summoned up all of her energy and went out to wage war, of a sort. There were people no doubt trapped out there, and with her abilities, the skeletons weren't very difficult to dispatch one by one. Every time she got hit, though, she kept jumping back...

Probably nothing a bit of steak won't cure.

Wielding her water spheres seemed to exhaust her more than usual, though, as she made her way through the resort and into Town

She wasn't the only one making a mess of these guys- whatever gun Kay has been using has been making a calcified dusty mess. Somehow he's managed to make it through relatively unscathed, especially for the numbers.

"What is this bullshit..." he muttered under his breath, before he saw her fighting too.

"Hey, over here. I can get your back if you get mine." She wasn't patrol but he'd settle for anybody at this point.

[He knows that Boone misses home, so he's guessing that this is it. Why would he stay here when everything went to shit? He wouldn't. That would be stupid to hope for.]

[But Niko, he doesn't really have anywhere else to go. He supposes one day they'll lift his quarantine, but what's his best hope? It doesn't matter. Not really. Nothing matters and he's going to find himself alone again- he didn't even fuck up this time! It's not fucking fair.]

[He's carrying a fluffy furball of a beast with him as he enters the resort, bee-lining for Boone's room. It's bigger than the last time Boone saw it probably, rounder around the midsection, and luckily hid through the attack of the skeleton archers.]

[He uses his free hand to knock on the door, sighing heavily out his nose.]

Throughout the residential areas, OTA

The most important, Wander thought, was for the civilians to leave as quickly and safely as possible. He knew he had to chance against an invading army, at least not with the knowledge that everyone else in the town was in danger.

The moment he heard about the skeletons spawning in , he ran through the main roads, begging everyone to either head to the resort or to large shelters in or out of the city where they must stay in groups. He only knew that the skeletons didn't show up in places that had a lot of people, so hopefully sticking together would prevent more casualties.

Each time he guided a group to a more populated area, he headed by himself back to the streets looking for anyone that might be straggling or injured.

[Boone does miss home, and his first thoughts on hearing about the quarantine were that he could finally go back and see everyone again. He could take his cat, he knows it doesn't mind eating meat and there's plenty of it back home. He's sure everyone would be interested in the beast because they've never seen one before. They no doubt missed Rex, too. Especially Elle.

So when Niko knocks on the door, his thoughts are mostly of home. He's packed a few things away, but not much. He's been helping out with the skeleton problem, wearing the armour he found inside that temple. When he answers the door, his eyes immediately fall on the beast in his arm.]

Hey. Your cat got fat.
vengeance_driven: game (►►handtomouth)

[personal profile] vengeance_driven 2014-10-08 06:27 pm (UTC)(link)
Yes, ah... Is your cats fault. The only one she came in contact with. I guess is she, now. What she decided to be.

[He holds out the fuzziness towards Boone, offering the animal.]

Getting ready to head back?
thumbsdown: (let's get out of here)

[personal profile] thumbsdown 2014-10-08 06:45 pm (UTC)(link)
Kinda.

[He takes the cat and nods for Niko to follow him back inside. Boone's cat is sitting on a shelf as usual, and Boone arches an eyebrow at the animal when it turns to look at him.]

Look what you did. Yeah, you know it was you.

[He sets Niko's cat on the couch, where it flops lazily onto its side. He sits beside it, looking up at Niko.]

Still got a few things to pack. Been busy with other stuff. Like... skeletons.

I guess it could be a worse shitstorm. They weren't very smart. [He walks over and pets the fat cat's side, making it flop its tail.]

I guess I will maybe see you around one day? [Despite his better efforts, there's a hopeful note to his tone. He doesn't have that many friends, not really. Boone's been the only one to really get how fucked up he is and not chatter for him to "get over it".]

[He wants to think he'll see him again in the future. But this isn't home, is it?]
thumbsdown: (nice of you to show up)

[personal profile] thumbsdown 2014-10-08 07:45 pm (UTC)(link)
[Boone seems to remember then that Niko is staying here, and he feels like an idiot. Of course he's staying here. He doesn't have anywhere else to go.]

Oh... you're staying here.

[He nods slowly.]

Yeah... I was gonna come back. It's not so bad here.

[personal profile] vengeance_driven 2014-10-08 07:54 pm (UTC)(link)
I guess that I could go see my cousin, but ah.... Well, I probably shouldn't. This is the better place for me. [Far from anyone and around people that are mostly used to taking care of themselves. But he still can't help but think that his presence brings bad news.]

[After a couple of awkward moments, he holds his arms out.] So maybe I give you a hug? I know you're not the touching sort but ah... is tradition for saying good-bye. [He's usually not big on hugging men that aren't family, but he's come to really like Boone, to look forward to his company. He's never found him anything other than easy to be around. It seems appropriate- Boone is the only one here he has to hug.]

Operation: Rescue Bertie

[personal profile] what_ho_jeeves 2014-10-08 08:01 pm (UTC)(link)
Bertie had been out for a post-prandial perambulation, ankling it around the village when the skeletons appears. At the sight of them, Bertie Wooster did what any red-blooded Englishman would do: he ran and hid behind the nearest flying auto.

His hat felt unbalanced on his head so he removed it to have a look. An arrow was shot right through it. (It was his favorite trilby, too, he thought with mournful sigh as he put the hat, arrow still in it, back on his onion.)
thumbsdown: (nope can't do that)

[personal profile] thumbsdown 2014-10-08 08:03 pm (UTC)(link)
He'd probably be glad to see you, right?

[He doesn't really like the idea of Niko being on his own for however long it takes for things here to get resolved. He pauses for a moment, before getting to his feet.]

Uh... okay.

[He gives Niko a tentative hug. It's more than most people get, even if it is short and kind of awkward.]

[Only he doesn't actually expect Boone to come back, so he ends up hugging a little hard and holds onto it a beat too long. But he lets him go.]

Yes, he might. [But he doesn't intend to try.] I can help carry your things back to the transport. You will need more hands since this one got friendly. [He thumbs at the smug looking black cat.]
thumbsdown: (is it time?)

[personal profile] thumbsdown 2014-10-08 08:17 pm (UTC)(link)
[He notes the way Niko hugs him, and gets the idea that maybe he thinks he isn't coming back after all. Or maybe he thinks he'll be gone for a long time, and who knows? Boone doesn't know when he'll be invited back.]

Thanks.

[He looks around the room- there are still a bunch of things that need to be packed, so he won't be heading anywhere just yet.]

If you're not going back home, what're you gonna do?

[personal profile] vengeance_driven 2014-10-08 08:33 pm (UTC)(link)
Same thing I have been doing. I am still good at the ruins, so that's what I'll do. I'll buy some new armor to wear. They still need people to help them figure out these spawners and I guess I can help find them.

[He's at least given this a little bit of thought, even if not more than a bland sort of planning. "Find something you do well and keep doing it," basically being the core idea.]

OTA

[personal profile] timesbureaucrat 2014-10-08 08:38 pm (UTC)(link)
Narvin disliked danger and taking risks. But he disliked enemy attackers even more. This resort wasn't his home, but he'd still been here long enough to feel enraged when something dared attack it and he's determined to find out where they're coming from and cut off their method of entrance.

And so he changed the setting on his staser so it would pack a more powerful (and fatal) punch and waded into the fray. If he saw someone in immediate danger of losing their life, he'd help where he could, but his primary goal was to seek out the source and for that he couldn't let himself be distracted by the chaos or by others in peril.

The docks would be convenient for us both, I think. I, too, am going home for a while. Perhaps a very long while.

[He sounds ambivalent about it. The home he's going to isn't really his home at all. But he can't abandon Romana and Leela there.]
thumbsdown: (watch it)

[personal profile] thumbsdown 2014-10-08 08:45 pm (UTC)(link)
Yeah, I guess.

[What would he do if he stayed? Patrol the fence? Would those skeletons still be out there? Between those and the creepers, this place got quite a bit more dangerous since he arrived. How will it be when he returns?]

You'll be careful, right?
