Morning everyone. Gotta say, I have not been this excited for a reset in ages. We've still got 18ish hours here though so I'd really like to do another airdrop of supplies for the locals if anyone was keeping anything back waiting to see if they needed it. Remember things you came with like spare ammo reset with you as well.

Tomorrow's another void week so hopefully we'll be back to our normal looking Derleth with the full Green and power and running water. Try not to hog the showers too much or Captain America will be very disappointed in you.

Zombies. Is this how you usually welcome newcomers?

Hey,

I'm in what probably was the journalism building. There are reports, dated ten years ago, talking about a virus that was compared to a really bad upper respiratory infection.

And things went South.

Biowarfare?

I'm going to miss the rabbit. He was funny.

But I was told he left and returned before, so it's possible it'll happen again. It's always possible.

[Private to Clint Barton]

Assuming you're still sleeping off the last adventure, I'm by the main gathering area and sleeping off a special mission. Might be a little slow to start today's escapade.

Don't fret, didn't run into any real trouble. But it's getting harrier out there by the minute, so in a professional idiot's opinion nobody should be headed out alone again.

Come push me off the chair if you're intent on going out and I'm still in dreamland. You're the only sensible one I've met around this hell hole.

Magicians/Wizards/Sorcerers/Mages: Do any of you have skills in growing things? I suspect the survivors' base probably has some fields growing food, considering there's no much to scavenge around here. Anyone wanna give them a boost? I know magic is on the fritz, but we can try.

Donations: I'm not asking anyone to give up their rations, but if you find it in your heart, we're taking donations of anything useful to supply drop on the survivors we've found. They're skittish as both Pike and Steever have mentioned, but that doesn't mean we shouldn't try to help them. We have two and a half days left here, they have who knows how long. Anything you wanna donate, I'll be waiting with boxes.

Fliers: Sam Wilson has volunteered, but if anyone else can, it would be much appreciated.

Any of the other fliers feel like their flying is reliable enough for a short trip? I'd like to see if we can find anything different if we get out of town a bit, maybe even something we can offer the nearby groups of survivors that they can't get easily if we're going to try making contact with them, though obviously feeding us is going to be a priority. I think we're down three and up two so far this week and there's still two and a half days left. Relatedly, does anyone need anything specific that might otherwise get overlooked?

Okay, so good news first? Stevie and Peter are completely fine and safe.

The bad news? They sort of ran into some survivors and they weren't friendly. I mean, Stevie and Peter were friendly, the survivors weren't, I mean. But no one got hurt! Mostly they just wanted to know where all of you were located? There were kind of a lot of threats? But like I said, it's fine now! The survivors don't know we're on campus. Pretty sure But yeah, trying to reason with them didn't work.

Uh, also I could use a name? Starker sounds too close to Starver, so that's out. Peevie sounds too close to peeved. Maybe some kind of crystal spider thing? That could be cool? What do you guys think?

Bouncey and I doubled back after the shitshow at the Mall. Apart from being down some arrows, we actually pulled together a tidy haul, I think.

Since he did the tally last time, this is what I came up with. Saw one some of the posts that the Steve guy isn't around anymore Sorry about that but if you feel this list should be forwarded to anybody else, let me know.

And now the Grand Assessment:

- Small tool set for jewelry repair. Fine tools, quality assortment.
- Bunch of colorful fabric scraps (bandages?)/gauze from something called Build-a-Bear (Honestly I thought the Orlesians were weird)
- Needle set and sewing thread.
- Inks and half a bottle of sanitizer from a tattoo parlor.
- Paper from the parlor, maybe a ream's worth. Semi waxy but good enough for the ink.
- 6 ceramic mugs, mostly with rude pictures on them.
- Few extra shirts, varying sizes, mostly decorated with vulgar pictures or phrases according to Bouncey (Humans! Love you!!)
- 6 bags of dry stuff Bouncey says is called 'pasta'. Shaped like genetalia. (I'm dying over here.)
- Handful of some disc shaped pins that can be polished to be reflective.
- 2 Large "plastic" bins (we can both fit in one each)
- 10 "Bungey cords", most around 6 ft length but the stretch out.
- A collapsable platform with a set of wheels, can fit the bins with the bungies.
- 2 sets bow and 'firearm' (whatever those are) repair kits/cleaning sets
- 1 fire poker
- 1 fire shovel
- 7 protein bars. Apparently have a lot of 'calories' and nutrients in them, though they feel like jerky blocks to me.

Getting the box of protein bars caused a bit of a ruhkus and attracted some half-feral humans Bouncey says aren't from the campus, so we skiddadled after that. Probably not worth facing the shamblers or feral humans to head back, for a while. At least in the time-fream we're working with.

So, we can do weapon repair and cleaning and camp out, maybe use the big bins and the dolly to bring back a bigger supply of water from that river you were talking about. He reckons this plastic stuff will hold it pretty well, and we didn't take the one we took turns trying out so apart from the smell (which he says is normal) they're pretty clean.

We did use up a few bolts each looking out for those kids, but both still have ammo. I'm down to 8.

It was probably a good thing Baymax was in the Void campus this week. While he wished he could be there to assist his friends in the area without supplies or water, there was little chance of his vinyl and pudgy body coming through intact. And he wasn't that great at dealing with monsters in his human form, as he could recall, to his embarrassment.

But he still had patients. The others in the Void, upon learning they could watch over their allies and friends, had been doing so round the clock, taking shifts to monitor and alert those in danger.

So Baymax took care of them, his patients. He made sure they were eating, getting rest, taking breaks to walk and stretch their limbs, resting their eyes. The only one who had given him much difficulty was Bucky Barnes, whom he'd had to sedate once to enforce sleep as Bucky's physical and mental acuity had begun to decline.

Right now, he was preparing a tray of sandwiches, and whatever fruits and snacks he could scrounge up. He wasn't certain what would work well together. Hiro liked gummy bears, but also Cheetos dipped in Spaghettios. Baymax was trying to figure out the best caloric intake, vs the least amount of processed high fructose corn syrup.

You still doing okay? I promised that if you weren't I'd keep a better eye on you, so let me know if I need to be watching you sleep or anything.

I also promised not to make things awkward. I won't watch you sleep.

[NATASHA]

I think I I messed up.

Bucky

You've probably heard if you didn't see. I got bit.

Already running a fever, so I holed up with Rose and barricaded ourselves in.

Promise me you'll be around next week, and that if you're seeing me on your magic screen you won't watch. Nobody needs to see this, and we're as good as we can be in the meantime.

Sorry, pal.

Hello? I appreciate the letter. A paper airplane's better than a creepy doll. I still have questions. Does this have anything to do with Russians? Is there any way to contact home? What do I do if I run into a zombie?

More questions will come as I think of them.

[Steve Rogers]
Steve. Why am I internally debating whether it would be better if you got bit by a zombie or decided to run away with a teenage girl?

What in the hell is going on?? Heard something that sounded awfully monster-like and — the demogorgon, it was just here. Oh damnit did we lose it

Aw you gotta be kidding me. YOU GOTTA BE KIDDING ME.

[...some time later]

Zombies don't seem to burn as nicely as I'd hoped. That's what these walking corpses are, right? Does this thing even work

Is there anyone willing to watch my dog? I'd like to go out scavenging and maybe finding some better animals for, you know, the arrowing, but I don't wanna risk him getting zombie-handled.

Good News & Bad News

Good News: Ed and I found some tins of food (no telling what they are or if they're still good) and some other random supplies. They're in the kitchen.

Bad News: Zombies might not be our only problem. Ran into some not-zombies who are fairly well armed and unfriendly. Seemed to be human, but didn't stick around to find out.


[Captain's Club - Steve Rogers & Sam Wilson]

Any of you ever get put on a strike system by Bucky?

[Orlin]

Thanks again for patching me up.

[ hours after the mall excursion. ]

Rogers and I decided to go on a spiritual journey. See you all next reset.

Well, I was hoping we'd have found a decent water source by now, but since we're still limping along it's probably prudent to mention I do have my magical coffee flask from a couple of months ago. Coffee's hardly ideal and I have no idea whether there's a limit as to how much will come out of it but we're not exactly in a position to be picky when it comes to keeping sixty-odd people hydrated for another half week.

Great news everyone.

We come bearing food*

So we didn't find a ton because it sucks out there. And this is not a retrievable shaft field. But

15 bottles of water

2/3 of a container of baby formula powder.

A box of chicken bouillon cube (12 total).

3 shakers of red pepper flakes and 2 of parmesan--kinda full.

69 packets of cherry and grape flavored lube (lol)

14 oz a bottle of safflower oil that doesn't smell off

10 oz jar of coconut oil that could be ok if we get rid of the top part

1.5 22 oz. coconut oil massage lotion. I know. I know. But Cher eats lotion and she's super old and probably alive here too tbh so idk it's maybe worth a try.

* or like edible stuff. work with me here.

I think we'll probably have to go back out cause that's not gonna cut it, I know. But it's not nothing.

Hey Hawkeye.

Any luck yet?

I helped stop one zombie apocalypse. I really wasn't keen on showing up in another one so soon after. Sharp weapons are easy to come by, but I'd rather not get that close to these fuckers. Green and sallow are not my colors, and I'll be damned if I eat the brains of anything.

MAGICIANS (ELIOT, JULIA):

What are we doing for wards?

Okay so you know how there's all these movies about how to kill a zombie you have to cut its head off or destroy its brain? Or at least there is where I'm from. Anyway, it turns out cutting their heads off does not work. You kind of just end up with a zombie head. It's not super great.

We don't have time for introductions, but I'm Silena, I'm one of the people keeping an eye on everyone and I'm picking up a feed from Macy's, you have a group of zombies there, you need to get out.

ooc: per this when Silena doesn't get a response after several more attemps.:

Public

Can someone help, please? There's a group that went to check out a mall and they're going to run into zombies, but I can't reach them, none of them are responding but I still see them on the screens. They're fine for now, but they won't be.
