Day 442 / Video and action / open
Video – 9 am

I assume it doesn't need to be said, but everyone get yourselves and anything you want to hang onto to Sector 0.

Anyone need help with anything, let me know.


Action – open

He spends the morning in Sector 2, picking up a few bits they might need in MAHR and then checking for anyone he needs to shoo out of the sector. He pauses to gaze at the Defence Force Headquarters where he spent so much of his time until the last few weeks, and the Library, where Ianto spent so much of his. A whole lot of memories there and who knows if they'll ever return.

The early afternoon is Sector 3, where he checks in briefly on the clinic, visits the hot springs for memory's sake, and then heads for the Bull's Eye store, where he starts loading sleeping bags and other equipment onto trolleys and shuttling them through to Sector 0.

Sector 4 is more personal. He's lived here the whole eight months he's been here, and built up a lot of memories. Bean Crushers, where he gets the last perfectly brewed coffee from his pet bot Taylor. The Daffodil Dive, with the conflicting emotions it invokes. The little row of restaurants called Little Earth where he and Ianto have eaten so many meals. Captain Jack's Exotic Emporium, a more recent venture but one he's put of effort a lot into; he bags up a few of his favourite items to take with him, just in case. And then there's the apartment he's shared with Ianto all this time, chock full of memories, and quite a few little mementoes he's determined not to leave behind, things like the little book of photos Ianto gave him at 'Christmas', and the box of photos he'd lost in the Hub that the wardens had thoughtfully recreated for him.

Come evening, he can be found in Sector 0, mentally checking people off to make sure everyone's there, and wandering around to see if anyone needs a hand setting up.

"No time better than right now."

He might not get another chance. She's hoping things will be back to normal soon but it doesn't look good and for once, she'd rather err on the side of caution.

"I'd offer you a slice of pie, but for once I don't have any ready."

He smiles, shaking his head. "I don't think I could eat, anyway."

He looks about him, and draws a breath. "He's gone, you know. Tyki. It almost seems like he repented there, in the end."

She nods, solemnly. This is all so messy and she wishes she could tell Jack everything, how despite what he did Chuck could never entirely hate Tyki, how tortured he looked at the end when he came to see her, almost crumbled when faced with basic human decency. She can't, though. Not to him, not to Ianto. Not to anyone, she thinks, and maybe that's for the best. Maybe Tyki deserves to have some things private.

"I'm glad he got the chance to."

Somewhere deep inside he probably knows all that, even if he's done his best not to actually think about it consciously. He knows she worked for Tyki for quite a while, knows they must have been fairly close - and he knows Chuck and her big heart and endless compassion. He doesn't blame her. In a way, he admires her for it.

"Yeah," he says, on a long sigh. It's about the best ending he could have hoped for, in the circumstances. "Have to say, in some ways I'm glad too. Might be about the closest I'll get to closure on the whole thing."

"Mmn." She agrees, arms crossed over her chest. "I guess it depends on what happens next."

Places disappearing one by one, the system looking worse with every passing day. At this rate there won't be anything left soon, and that worries her.

"Well, whatever happens, it doesn't look like Tyki will be coming back," he says soberly, because it's a big thing - a massive relief, for him, but also one of the most final things that's happened here, where they're so used to everything resetting again the next day.

"As for the rest of us... It's not looking good, is it?"

Chuck nods, torn as she always is when it comes to Tyki. Regardless she's glad she got to say goodbye, that he had a chance to redeem himself if only a little bit. He deserved better than what he got. Most of them do.

"Not great, no. I can't remember it ever being this bad without them evacuating us to some other place."

"They don't have the resources they used to have any more," he shrugs, lips pursing. "Those evacuations were always of our real bodies, weren't they? And they don't have those any more."

Yes, he's worried.

"I guess that confirms that they're telling the truth about that part, at least."

Maybe, unless this whole thing is a ruse. She worries at her bottom lip.

"There's nothing we can do about it, either way. Just... hope for the best."

"I'm starting to believe they really have been telling us the truth ever since the coup," he admits, because of course he's had doubts, and who could blame him? "Jaden, particularly, seems incredibly cut up about it all. I mean, I don't like having to rely entirely on someone else to get us out of this, but he really does seem to care about it all, deeply. I believe he'll do everything he can for us."

"Really?"

She didn't expect to hear that from him. He's always come across as more suspicious of these things than she is and she's still not sure what to think of the new management.

"What about the other one?"
