Religion fascinates, tickles the mind, and drives people to unwitting names in the name of the unseen. I have, myself, never seen its forest for its dense trees. In my experience, it has been a gentle lullaby to soothe a fitful child or a pat on the head of a mutt for a job well done. You believed, now here is your treat: faith. It is a muddling trait of humanity, is it not? Mankind overall markets itself as supreme while still boasting countless millions that bow before some invisible eye in the sky, whether Pod God or smiling idol.

It is tempting to believe in some Pod God, I suppose. As I've read, pods arrive with gifts inside to varying degrees of use or nostalgia. I confess it is also tempting to want to be a part of that scene to be held at the 'sacred tree,' not as a participant, but rather as a bemused spectator.

I've found I believe in very little, a handful of people perhaps, nothing more. In the absence of them, I would not then find comfort in any sort of faith, only a sense of having been alienated by it.

Troubling how an entertaining slice of insanity can spark such lonely drivel.

Thanks.

We're not on the same team anymore, I don't think.

Hi. We haven't talked in a while.

I know you're all exhausted, but we're not finished just yet.

All the military reports are in and the last of the goblins is dead. Anyone taking shelter in a safe location is free to move about the mountain, and I'm going to ask that any civilian who is physically able volunteers to help in the next few days. It'll mean pulling double shifts and going outside your department, but Mount Weather needs all hands on deck to really be livable right now.

  • Military + Fair Weather Friends: I'd rather all of you get some kind of sleep or rest, but I know most of you are stubborn, so I'm asking that you at least try to volunteer somewhere comparitively low stress. You deserve a break.
  • Medical: We're still treating the injured and we could use more civilian volunteers. I've talked to Hawke about setting up a rotation for the doctors, nurses and field medics, but again, I know a lot of you are stubborn. I won't be surprised if you refuse to take a nap, but I will remind you that tired medics make mistakes. If you're usually working in medical, do the most important work on your patients and leave anything that you can easily explain to a layman to the volunteers.
  • Infrastructure: The tunnels need to be collapsed and the walls need to be repaired. Our infrastructure department took a lot of cuts a few weeks ago, so if you're up for some labor, they also desperately need volunteers.
  • Law Enforcement: We need an updated list of our survivors, our injured and our dead ASAP. Many of our officers are FWF and may be injured, so if everyone could check in with an officer before switching departments, that would help.
  • Crafts: Anybody who knows useful salvage from garbage and has a strong stomach needs to volunteer for Craft detail for a while. They'll be looting and disposing of the dead bodies. Our main priorities are to get them out of the mountain and not to leave them out to attract predators; the best way to do that is by burning them. We'll need someone to maintain a pyre far enough from the blast doors to keep the stink some distance away from us.
  • Civilian: With so much of our residential area damaged, we need more hands on deck than usual to clean up the damaged areas to make them livable again. Until that's done, anyone not catching rest in the hospital while they're recovering will have to bunk with someone in 504 or find somewhere else to sleep until their rooms are safe. I'm also asking that the kitchen staff deliver food to workers instead of calling everybody away and into the Mess Hall. People are either wiped or working, and we want to get this done as soon as possible. Normally Lily Potter would
  • This is an all hands on deck situation. I know it's asking a lot so soon after repelling an invasion, but it's about keeping our home livable, and everyone needs volunteers. The only non-essential areas that will resume as normal are going to be childcare, education and The Rose. The kids need the normalcy, and I have a feeling you'd all find a way to get a drink even if I told you not to. As soon as you're done with duties in one area, or if a certain job overloads you in some way, you need to volunteer in another area. Nobody expects you to do nothing but clean up dead bodies the entire time, but that just means you'll need to move over to something like food service or infrastructure and rotate with someone.


    Most importantly, stay safe, take breaks every few hours, and don't forget to eat and stay hydrated. Medical is going to be too busy tending to the wounded to hover over you about self care, but if you make dangerous mistakes because you're tired or pass out from dehydration, you're adding more to Medical's workload. There's no issue of banding together and getting this done, because I've seen you all do it time and time again, but we're down over 180 people from the last time we dealt with something this damaging inside Mount Weather itself and I know that many of you will work yourselves to the bone if we let you.

    You saved us all today. Take care of yourselves.

    At least I've got a room to myself, now. A lot of people seem to.

    Is the training camp still going on? I want to sign up for wilderness survival.

    Brace yourselves. This is a lot to take in here.

    Mount Weather's military divisions were hit hard in the recent large wave of departures. As our reduced population does nothing to reduce the size of the area we need to protect or the size of the threats we may face, we are reorganizing, consolidating, and calling up some additional volunteers to ensure the safety of our home and its citizens.

    The Soldier and Guard divisions have been merged, and will share duties among three squads: Bravo, Charlie, and Echo. To maintain a 24-hour guard on Mount Weather, the Scout divisions will also be taking one shift per week, alternating days and nights. The Mapping division is being consolidated into one group, reporting to Sgt. Spock. We called up Fair Weather Friends, so you'll need to take a look at this if you've signed up for the position.

    All Mount Weather Military members may find their current assignment and schedule in the following list:

    Thank you to everyone who's been helping with the White Witch problem. I'm grateful, and I'm sure we're all grateful; it's just frightening and strange to think of magic like that being real. Traveling between universes I was willing to accept, but turning a carbon-based life form into stone?

    It's a lot to process. I wouldn't have believed it if I hadn't seen her myself. I know magic's perfectly logical in other worlds, but... not where I'm from.

    Greetings, salutations, et cetera. I am Sherlock Holmes. One 'version' of him, by the looks of it. A fact of which is disconcerting.

    While I initially had reason to believe I was being quartered with Legolas, a second inspection of his appearance has not aligned with Tolkien's description. I still do not, however, agree with what it is my eyes have seen. Circumstances are not, as any new arrival can imagine, ideal.

    My thanks for the mug and colourful pamphlet, it has given me a great deal of information of which I have, overall, very little use. I have been told I will be a part of law enforcement. To whom do I report? There's something I wish to discuss in private.

    Think the TARDIS is cross with me. Gave me a good couple of shocks today, quite rude! Has anyone got something that needs repairing?  Don't think the old girl wants me meddling with her wiring anymore today, hah!

    Or is there more of that singing and dancing going on by chance? Do love a bit of that!

    Has anyone seen Kara? Or Ringer?

    Ciao. Is there a priest in the mountain? Or at least someone able to take confession? Also, I would do a great many things for something salty to eat.

    Er. Not while giving confession, obviously.

    You are sad about your Constantine, yes? I have something that might help.

    Or it might make things much much worse. I can't be sure yet.
