[INSIDE] The Wall
Who: Astoria Greengrass, Zacharias Smith and OPEN
Where: the wall, wizarding London
When: April 9, late afternoon
What: Astoria and Zach decide to try and take proactive measures about the wall.
Rating: TBD, probably at least R, could go high for violence, etc. -- Almost certainly will.
Status: OPEN; in progress.
"Not a wall, it's a fucking dome," Zach said as his eyes scanned the clear surface, watching as the sun throbbed off it. Glistening like wet glass, it seemed to stretch on for forever and the artist bit his lip as he took another, hesitant step closer. It had unnerved him more than he wanted to admit to leave Clare, Andrea and Jac under someone else's watch but after watching the way that the other wizards were clustering in the India House, he'd come to understand that- without Fred, at least - nothing was going to be accomplished simply waiting. And, with the stores as they were, they didn't have that time.
He'd gone in privately and estimated they had food to last a day. Maybe two. There were fewer and fewer animals near the perimeter.
People die of thirst in the Arctic. The thought disturbed him as he looked at the dirty snow, wondering how long before water, too, became an issue. His feet scuffed the pavement as he thought to himself that they might as well have been in the Pole, as isolated as they had become. He watched Astoria for a moment, before saying, "Looks like glass. Wonder if anyone's tried heat, than ice. Course, we don't have any fucking ice but cold. Something cold. Works on glass. That's how you break it without shattering."
