(OPEN) COMMUNITY MESSAGE BOARD @ STARTER BASE

[shuckit]

▶ 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. ]]

Comments

another little scrap of paper

[bronzini]

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.

post its 5ever

[shuckit]

or creepy, poorly lit medical facilities

[ wow he can't help it okay its a condition ]

yeah, she's good. weird outfit, but she's good. the guy in the robot suit is pretty okay too

[bronzini]

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?

[shuckit]

generally not a fan of lab setting at all. doesn't give a cozy feel. [ he says like he hasn't been basically living in a lab since waking up here, like a freaking weirdo.

working on it, man, working on it ]

not really my style. kevlar would be nice though. yeah, shank's like 7 feet +, carries a huge gun

[bronzini]

no, you've got me there. but science is comforting. you know what you're doing, or you don't and it blows up and you start over.

[ look out, thomas, you've got competition in the freaking weirdo department. ]

guess it depends who's wearing it, although yeah it'd be nice if the weapons shed had like, riot gear or something.

jesus. awkward q but - human?

[shuckit]

when it goes right, maybe. could be a little blow up or really big, really bad blow up.

[ thomas and his relationship with science is a difficult thing, okay ]

honestly, i'm still surprised they left us weapons at all. so i'll take it. but riot gear would be cool.

no idea, dude never took his helmet off

[bronzini]

or you turn into a giant lizard. but there's always a way to undo it, every mistake has an antidote. i like that part.

[ ha ha ha nothing about that is funny. ]

it does seem pretty well stocked, if there were people here before us.

maybe he was trying to protect his secret identity

[shuckit]

that's not true

[ just that. it is most certainly not true. nope nope nope. nothing is okay ever. ]

or the people that brought us here wanted us to have a chance at survival.

there's only, what, 100 of us? 150? what's he doing that people can't know who he is?

[bronzini]

maybe not right away or maybe it's not you who undoes it, but - in general. bad experience?

[ she gets the sense that she's stepped in it and SCIENTIFIC CURIOSITY means she wants to know why. or how. ]

so generous of them.

i don't know, you don't have vigilantes where you're from?

[shuckit]

extinction of humanity

[ yeah. it was a bad experience. ]

no point bringing us here if we're just gonna bite it in a few days.

not that i know of [ though, his experience with the actual world of his world is only about a month or so worth of memory. ]

[bronzini]

omg i'm sorry - wouldn't have got all resiliency of the human spirit and the power of discovery on you if i'd known

[ nice one, gwen. how to not make friends and alienate people. ]

i don't get why they brought us here at all, honestly. not yet anyway. unless they want us to fix things. if that's possible.

i knew one, at home. he was - different, and a lot of people didn't understand what he was doing. so it was safer for him if no one knew who he was.

[shuckit]

it's okay. don't worry about it. just don't start up any mad science and we'll be fine.

[ which is meant as a joke. he's not very good with jokes. ]

maybe. last ditch effort to try to save whoever's left? no one around to ask right now.

what was he doing? how do you take helping the wrong way?

[bronzini]

definitely not. i consider myself more a mad science reverser. sane science?

[ gwen loves jokes ok she'll take it. ]

it seems like there are a lot of capable people around. i guess i'd buy that. it's a lot of pressure though.

well, it's kind of complicated. he has these enhanced abilities, strength and agility and some other stuff [ vague enough??? ] and i guess he was causing a bit of damage around the city. but it was only because he was trying to save us all from a giant lizard. idk people fear what they don't understand.

[shuckit]

science rehabilitation therapist.

maybe. we won't know til we find someone who has an idea how and why we were brought here

was he killing people in the process or something? who cares about city damage if he's saving people? your world's priorities are kind of jacked

[bronzini]

i'll take it

and no, but - well, it was complicated, anyway. he's a good guy.

Thomas is the best person to go to about that. He's invaluable.
