Oh, man. [Chuck is pointing the camera at everything in distress/nerdy glee/archiving tendencies.] Cheery pseudo-'50s stuff? A suspiciously particular jumpsuit? A backpack and an extremely cryptic note?

We're either in some screwed-up cult or the Barge has dropped us off into scenic alternate-universe Washington, DC. And you know what, I'm actually not too sure which one I prefer.

But seriously. If you see any Kool-Aid? Don't touch it.

[Armand hears that voice not coming from his communicator, and follows it. He hovers at a distance though once he can see Chuck.]

Do you know where we are?

[Chuck jumps - but then he sees it's only Armand.] Agh! [His hand flies to his chest. Once he regains his composure, he continues.]

Yeah, I think so. And I really hope I'm wrong.

[Armand looks very uncomfortable in his jumpsuit. At least it's blue. He is carrying the gun, but it's safely pointed at the floor.]

Tis only me. Please, tell me.

I think we're in a crazy alternate future version of Washington, DC where everything outside this vault -- [Chuck waves a hand around, indicating everything--] ...is irradiated beyond belief.

This is gonna be one of those "hell ports", isn't it?

[No, Chuck has not liked the ports so far. Christmas was nice, but he is beginning to suspect that was nice only for a special occasion.]

So it isn't safe outside? [He shivers.] Is it safe anywhere?

Honestly? No. We're safe enough in here, I mean, no radiation. But sometimes a couple of nasty little things can slip in.

[He shakes his head.] And knowing the Barge, we're going to be forced outside sooner rather than later.

I've looked around. We haven't any food. [He comes closer, but still moves like he expects something invisible to jump him at any moment.]

[Chuck sighs.] Great. We get to go outside and forage. Staying in doesn't look like it's an option...

[Chuck shoulders his pack.] No time like the present to start looking for the exit, I guess. And supplies, too.

[And they head over here (http://young-idealist.livejournal.com/37956.html?thread=1275460#t1275460).]

What is Kool-Aid?

l-lol

[Arthas is asking him about Kool-Aid? HA HA HA OH WOW.]

It's a...flavored drink mix. It's powder, you put it into water, it makes a delicious drink you can sell to kids on street corners.

What's so dangerous about it, then?

[identity profile] scruffynerdhrdr.livejournal.com 2011-02-26 04:11 am (UTC)(link)
Er, it's not intrinsically dangerous? But there have been some cults who've spiked it with cyanide or whatever to commit mass suicide. The jumpsuits didn't exactly give me a great feeling about our possible and accidental recruitment into a nuclear death cult, is all.

If it were a cult, we'd be changed mentally. The Admiral wouldn't miss that chance to fuck with us.
