THOMAS (apocalyptic chihuahua and social disaster) ([personal profile] shuckit) wrote in [community profile] jumpscares2015-07-11 02:53 pm

(OPEN) COMMUNITY MESSAGE BOARD @ STARTER BASE

▶ WHO: Everyone!!
▶ DATE: July 9th 2015
▶ WARNINGS: none thus far
▶ SUMMARY: A place to share your ic infos, if you please! Thomas is a freaking busy body, and he wants to get all the clues about this place gathered up, so he's going to start writing stuff he's found/woke up with onto a wall in one of the labs, and leave notes around the compound for others to do the same.



[ in one of the lab rooms, you'll find a message (possibly with more messages) scrawled on one of the walls (literally ON TO it, with either pen or a marker). it reads: ]



[ because thomas is super good about being specific. and communicative. but basically, that's what he's posting here - notes. clues, useful information, curious things - information. the advantage the gladers had in getting out of the maze was that they were united, and cooperating for the same goal. thomas doesn't know anyone here, and only has maybe two pieces of what's a much larger puzzle. he needs the rest.

so, around the compound, you'll find scraps of paper that have been taped or pinned to walls (or written directly onto them) that read in the same handwriting: ]


SEE LAB ROOM [[ ROOM NUMBER HERE ]] FOR INFO

IF YOU FOUND SOMETHING, WRITE IT DOWN


[ again, he is awesome at being verbose. if your character decides to investigate the room, they'll find thomas's notes already pinned or written onto the wall, plus whatever is left in the comments below. thomas himself will likely be around more often than not, reading things, scrawling stuff of paper, looking contemplative, or being passed the fuck out in a corner, if they want to bug him. ]


[[ ooc; okay so thomas is a nut, and also i thought we could use an icly set up means for characters to share the clues they woke up with/stuff they found/whatever other information about stuff going down. if you want, put up a top level for the actual note your dude/dudette is leaving, and idk people can tag into it if they want to seek your character out and bug them? or write notes under the note you left? idefk, let's do stuff, go wild???


PS, IF YOU WANT THE TL;DR VERSION OF THIS, i tried organizing an IC list that Thomas would have made over here. It's not perfect, so don't consider that like end all be all, but thought it might help. ]]

[Steph draws a map of the compound, circling her room.

Or the room that she woke up in and has claimed as her own. Whatever.]


if you wanna chat before we spend a few hours in a car together you can find me there.
bronzini: (and you feed him for a day)

[personal profile] bronzini 2015-07-19 02:34 am (UTC)(link)
definitely keep them. could be for a car in hollows. something stashed in a trunk maybe.
controlledvariable: (PB >> face the fear)

[personal profile] controlledvariable 2015-07-19 02:41 am (UTC)(link)
Yeah, Portland, and we're here.

[She points out where they are, then does some math in her head, frowning at the map.]

Depending on the roads, it'd be about a ten hour drive.

[What is "normal speed limit"]

If you need to get somewhere and you have EXACT latitude/longitude/coordinates/etc, let me know. I can get you there in a second.

another little scrap of paper

[personal profile] bronzini 2015-07-19 03:07 am (UTC)(link)
i feel like that's probably a safe bet. don't take candy from strangers or eat dairy products in the apocalypse.

[ well then maybe don't be so on top of things thomas jeez. ]

haven't met him yet. batgirl seems to know what she's doing too.
controlledvariable: (Batgirl -- Gotham weather is the worst)

turns the paper over

[personal profile] controlledvariable 2015-07-19 03:18 am (UTC)(link)
i'd sure call them zombies, but we don't know how they got that why or why

the only "zombies" i've heard of back home were actually this whole alien mess so i can't really compare

There were only phone numbers and names. I was looking for a residential address.
controlledvariable: (civvies -- thumbs up)

scribbled down on the same post-it

be there or be square

[steph why]
mythomagician: (feeling okay this morning)

[personal profile] mythomagician 2015-07-19 03:26 am (UTC)(link)
Good job. ((It's not about anyone actually being able to read the note later - it's about the whole principle of the thing. Obedience training and all that. Zombies are basically pets, right?))

It'd probably be safer for you to stay out of the way. Do you understand me?
mythomagician: (we'll take that ride)

[personal profile] mythomagician 2015-07-19 03:34 am (UTC)(link)
no words. just small and green. i'll drop it off at the lab then.
bronzini: (why can't i have hair and money)

[personal profile] bronzini 2015-07-19 03:35 am (UTC)(link)
personally i find sterile lab settings very comforting, but the lighting's a no go, you're right.

[ terminal competence. he should get that looked at. ]

not a fan of the tights and kevlar look? is there seriously a robot guy here?
mythomagician: (feeling okay this morning)

no worries!

[personal profile] mythomagician 2015-07-19 03:36 am (UTC)(link)
no, it's just green.

i asked because i heard gunshots when i was waking up, from what sounded like inside the compound.
frostyy: (.05)

on the new side

[personal profile] frostyy 2015-07-19 03:37 am (UTC)(link)
That's probably another question that could be answered by getting into a computer.

I don't know of anything back home that's even vaguely zombie-like except for insects so I really can't either.

...alien mess?

[personal profile] rubberbone 2015-07-19 03:37 am (UTC)(link)
you can't pick and choose when it comes to adventure. it's all or nothing, right? but then again, not all people are made for adventuring.
rubberbone: (001)

new post-it;

[personal profile] rubberbone 2015-07-19 03:38 am (UTC)(link)
i'm trying my best to get along. and i don't mind being defenseless - i've gotten myself out of a couple tight situations before. i wouldn't mind learning how to use some of these futuristic weapons, though.

[THOMAS PLS.]

Hi. I'm not in charge, either. Hoping to help things get organized, but not in charge.
