Day 428 - Open Action
Morning

Ice cream for breakfast was perfectly okay. Mal's not paying much attention to the ice cream though. Sure he's eating it, but mostly he's standing across from the entrance to sector 6, staring intently at the door.

Late morning - Early afternoon

Mal was a flurry of activity. He didn't plan to be gone long - only a few hours - but he did need decent supplies. Water for one. A small bag of supplies he could stash somewhere in sector 6 for later. And of course his trusty pitchfork from the stable. Once he had everything he needed, Mal walked purposefully to sector 6.

Evening

Mal emerges from Sector 6 tired and filthy. The food carts aren't giving him anything he really wants, so he makes his way wearily to Sector 4 for something good. He sat at one of the restaurants, pitchfork leaning against the wall next to his table, while he demolished a burger with relish.

	"I'm taking it shiny means good?" he chuckled, pushing away to get up and fetch said beers. Thankfully, it didn't take long and he was back in a minute with two brown bottles. He set one in front of Mal before settling himself back down, letting his legs stretch out on the crossways. "So - what did you get up to today?" (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Mal nodded at Kirk's question and turned his attention back to his food. When Kirk came back with the bottle, Mal took a long draught from it. "Thanks," he murmured. He finally leaned back, his eye catching his pitchfork. "Spent some time in sector 6. Place is exhausting. Great... but exhausting." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"Needing to keep your mind off something?" he guessed, understanding that. It was one of the main reasons he ran and exercised like he did, especially in the early hours and during the evening. Still.. "Didn't run into our friends the raptors did you?" (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"Somethin' like that." Prison drunk just doesn't seem like a path he wants to trod down anymore. He chuckles then. "Nah... stayed out of their territory today. Spent more time in the forest. Those pill bugs sure are somethin.'" (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"I haven't run into those yet, but if they're like the giant wasps and the raptors, I think I'm okay with that," he shook his head. "You would have thought our less belligerent overlords might have removed some of those things from the code here." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"Not so intelligent. More just big and dumb." Mal takes a long draught of his beer. "You'd think. Don't make no sense if we're supposedly safe here." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"Sometimes that's worse," he chuckled a bit. He'd gotten into trouble more than once facing off against something like that. "Yeah. I guess it makes me wonder sometimes how much they're really trying to fix," he admitted. "Or if this is just another phase in a larger plan, maybe?" He sipped his drink. "Sorry, I don't mean to go all conspiracy theorist on you." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Mal shrugged. "I ain't too trustin' of most things where people have vast amounts of power over others. Usually there's somethin' goin' on. Usually it's worse'n you imagine." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	He nodded quietly. "It's been that way more times than I like to admit. I wonder why that is - even across species," he sighed before shaking his head slightly. "Wow, this went a lot darker than I meant it too when I said I'd buy you a drink." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Mal shrugs. "Think there's always some darkness here. We jus' get good at ignoring it cause we have to live here." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	universal_charm 2017-07-02 09:33 pm UTC (link)
	He nodded. "Yeah, I can see that. I mean, if we nitpicked at every little "shadow" we saw, I think we'd just be at each other's throats all the time, or at the least it would be a lot more tense than it already is and the glitches do more than enough of that for us."

	"Yeah somethin' like that." Mal takes a final gulp of his beer and looks Kirk in the. "Right. I'm mighty tired after today. Think it's time for me to turn in. Thanks for the drink. I'll buy next time." As though he has any purchasing power here. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Kirk nodded, rising when Mal did and giving him a pat on the shoulder. "See you around. Sleep well," he encouraged before sitting himself back down, content to nurse his beer awhile longer. (Reply to this) (Parent)
