Building a family [hella open]

[top-teen-38.livejournal.com]

 Slobo had been puttering around the ship for an hour, thinking and looking. He quickly found that if you looked hard enough, between W&P and the City itself, you could find anything. In the end, he was standing outside a Courtyard by Marriott hotel about a click outside of "Escherville" with spraypaint and a very large block of stone. At first he had thought about the Vatican, but it was too wrecked from the zombie fight. Plus, this place had an indoor pool. He spraypainted a large message on the wall next to the door, red with black outline.

"OUTSIDERS
COMMUNITY SERVICE
FIELD TRAINING

PEER COUNSELING" 

 

On the sandwich board tucked near the door, he wrote "12-21? Info and Tryouts inside" and left it out in front. Now, he took his large rock into the lobby and began carving. And waited.

"...yeah, the answer really gets down to the nitty gritty 'make of the universe' stuff. Electricity is actually smaller than the eye can see, and is all around us. We only see it strike as lightning when you get a whole bunch of it together." Well, it was quasi-truth, at least. "We really do have a lot of different techs and cultures jammed together here; I mean, this ship is centuries ahead of us, too. But, if there's any sciencey stuff you want to know about, I'll see what I can do. I gotta get back to work, anyway." He turned around and started back for the office. "Seeya later, Shad!"

That's right, you've already got a nickname.

"I learn better on my own. The media library has files on it," Shadow Link said, still looking confused at the explanation. Lightning was everywhere? That made him nervous, with how bright it was.

"Bye," he said before he processed the name, looking more confused. "...Shad?"

...now he's wondering if this whole 'trial period' is just gonna confuse him like this had. He supposed he'd have to wait and see.
