Announcement 001

[Whether you're waking up in the clinic just now, or have already done so and are now wandering the halls, a sudden screech of microphone feedback blares over the speakers before fading back out.

A moment later, a woman clears her throat. Her voice is husky and mature, but still feminine, and overall she sounds very authoritative...if not a bit sarcastic.]


Good evening, and welcome to the new school year. I hope your arrival was a pleasant one, last year everybody threw-up from motion sickness, it was quite messy.

[There's a long pause as she seems to think, or perhaps just let any anticipated bustling chatter calm down.] Now, you're all intelligent human beings...for the most part. But I suppose I'll pretend I'm talking to the insipid uneducated masses for a moment; it shouldn't prove too difficult.

[She clears he throat again.] In every hall, you shall find a small intercom. You may use that to ask me any questions after my announcements and "privately" converse. Now, if you head North down one of the halls near the clinic in the Central Wing and keep going, you'll eventually come to either the West or East Dorm Wings, depending on which fork in the road you chose. There you'll find all necessary bunk beds and spare socks.

So, make sure you're all well rested for class in the morning; we wouldn't want to get a failing grade now would we?

[And with that, there's another burst of feedback before her announcement abruptly ends. Anybody who had been wandering the halls will notice a distinct lack of...well, anybody else aside from new arrivals, the Nurse, and the Lunch Lady.

The strange woman over the loudspeakers may have mentioned classes, but the school seemed completely devoid of any teachers to provide those classes. In fact, a lot of things seemed...off.]

[Roy's brows furrow slightly in suspicion. That was a weird thing to say, even if it was a joke.]

Why would ya say that? Are there cannibals around here or somethin'?

[Okay, maybe he hasn't seen any yet, but he's heard stories!

Roy's fingers tighten a bit around his gun, more out of shaky nerves rather than the readiness to use it, though.]

So you don't know nothin' about this either? Fuck.

[Pardon his french.]

[He smiled despite the obvious playfulness in his tone from before, thinking that perhaps he simply didn't know any better. Then again maybe the humor was a bit too soon.]

I don't imagine there would be, dear boy. It's just you act as though I'll bite you. I can't say I'd ever do something like that.~

[Not in the context that Roy may have been thinking, anyhow. Noting the gun too he can't say Pegasus couldn't say he'd want to cross someone carrying a more than likely loaded weapon anyhow.]

My, yet you're prepared for the situation, I see...And sadly, no.

[personal profile] thatcatfrom101 2013-05-28 05:48 pm (UTC)(link)
'Cause I don't know you.

[And not knowing someone is clearly reason enough to be extraordinarily suspicious of them, right? Right!]

Prepared?

[He looks down at his gun before returning his gaze to Pegasus. Roy hasn't been prepared for anything that happened in the last week, really. But like hell he's about to show any kind of weakness in front of a stranger. Even if he's been...obviously scared and nervous throughout their interaction so far.]

Wasn't exactly expectin' to get kidnapped or nothin'. But yeah, if the asshole responsible for this just happened to show up I'd be prepared to put a bullet in his head.

[Yeah, look at how tough and scary he is!]

Well, the least you can do is introduce yourself.

[To cast those suspicions aside! Being friendly was part of his game, usually. Unless someone was being exceptionally rude, then he got a little miffed.

Pegasus offered a bright smile, despite the gun. Normally he'd have been alarmed. This was proving to be an unprecedented situation, however. He did hope Roy wasn't a criminal...or worse. Judging by appearances he was a little rough around the edges but he didn't look as though he'd had much practice with wielding that handgun of his.]

It's best to use it as a means of protection...If you want my opinion I'd save your bullets for actual danger.

My name is Pegasus, by the way. Pegasus Crawford.

[He offered his hand out to him to shake.]

[Roy bristles slightly. Of course he'd use his gun for protection! What, did this guy think he'd go shooting like a madman or something?]

Whoever brought us here can't be safe, so you bet your ass I'm savin' a bullet for 'em.

[He looks down at the offered hand a moment, seeming to consider his next move, before offering his own. He's pulling away as soon as one shake is accomplished, though! Probably for the best, as Roy's hands were all grimy and decorated in cuts. Oops!]

Roy.

Good boy. I can't imagine you'd want to waste them, Roy. And it's a pleasure to meet you.

[Pegasus seemed at least a little more at ease then. He has nothing to fear from him, hopefully. But you know you never can be too careful!

He'd have to discreetly wipe his hand later, but he doesn't given any indication that the state of the other's skin had bothered him for politeness' sake.]

So I take it you haven't learned much so far then?

["Good boy", what is he a dog? Roy's eyes narrow a bit at that but that's about it.]

I know fuck all.

[To be frank. He gestures to a device on his forearm, tapping the small screen on it.]

My map can't even tell me where we are. Just suddenly doesn't wanna work.
mister_foppish: (☆ Ooooh what have we here? ☆)

[personal profile] mister_foppish 2013-06-05 03:48 am (UTC)(link)
[Just his way of complimenting him. Oh his little habits of adding "boy" to the end of everyone's names...Kind of just a pet name really!]

Unfortunate. I can't say I know much more other than we're supposedly meant to attend classes that don't exist! Kind of spooky, really.

A map? Oh really? How extraordinary! Can I see it?

[He peers over at that device, now he's curious!]

[Roy probably shouldn't judge, seeing as he calls practically everyone "cat".]

That broad over the intercom must be off her rocker. Wonder where in the buildin' she is.

[Roy quirks a brow before looking back down at his Pipboy, holding it up a little.]

I told ya the map ain't workin'. [He demonstrates by showing off the all too blank screen where a map should be.] Radio ain't pickin' up anything either. Basically anything that'll fuckin' help determine where we are won't work.

[He sounds thoughtful now as he messes with the Pipboy's dials and buttons to see what works and what doesn't.]

Weird, because everythin' else on it works just fine...
