1) [Catherine's been pacing by the entrance again, but this time it's not in fear. It's... restlessness. She's been hiding inside for days, but nothing's connected here, she can't go anywhere, do anything. But this is conflicting with agoraphobia. Back and forth she goes, before-]

Oh, fuck it.

[Aaaaand out she goes, shielding her eyes against the sun.]



2) [While out on this journey of hers, she remembers something! And is completely dumbfounded by it.]

Hey. On a scale of "Einstein" to "fucking retarded," how bright would you say building a town next to a nuke sounds?



3) [Was her journey done or just starting? She got everything she needed. Some bottled water, a few snacks, some .44 caliber bullets...

Maybe you're near the habitation border. Maybe you're trying to get a group together. Here comes Catherine! ...and there goes Catherine, crossing the line without so much as blinking. The only noticeable difference is there's now a revolver in her hand.]

*Guess who's coming back the other direction!*

Cat-Cat! Hi! Wow, you're going out today?

Tsu. ...no one else seems too bothered going outside, and I'm going stir-crazy with nothing else to do.

Besides, I remembered something. Want to make a little trip and see if I can't build something when I get back.

Well, I seem to remember it bein' all right, so I just comes and goes as I want.

Ooh, really? Want me to come with? If it's megas heavy, maybe I can help lift it!

It helps to press the post button. *facepalm*

Pretty sure I told you about my home. Surface is all irradiated, so it kinda freaks me out to just be walking around out here.

Eh... it is, and don't take this the wrong way, but I'd kinda rather do it myself right now.

[lifesmegassweet.livejournal.com]

Yeah, I can see that! Man, that would kinda stink. So whaddaya think of fresh air, then?

Awww... some other time then?

[survival-101.livejournal.com]

Weird. Very weird. You know what freaks me out the most? Wind. Makes me think something's broken.

Some other time, definitely. I'm just not looking for anemoi at the moment, I've just got an idea. I think I can start building weapons for people who don't have any fighting experience.

[lifesmegassweet.livejournal.com]

Aw, I love wind! Especially the way it blows through your hair. It's great!

Oh, really? Wow, that'd be great! All those folks who wanna help find the anemoi can fend for themselves better! That's so cool!

[survival-101.livejournal.com]

Yeah, but in the Vault that meant someone better get fixin' the life support systems fast.

Turns out this Pip-Boy isn't useless after all! I checked it on a whim and it's got the design schematics for a portable junk launcher. You can load any old thing into it, long as it fits! Figure I should go find the parts and make sure it works before I tell people I can make 'em one.

[lifesmegassweet.livejournal.com]

Ah, I can understand why you wouldn't want that sorta thing then.

Ha ha, great! That could be megas fun to use! Lemme know if you need any help! I can't do a whole lotta technical stuff, but I can make a darn good pot of tea when I want to, if I say so myself!

[survival-101.livejournal.com]

...tea? What's that?

[lifesmegassweet.livejournal.com]

You've never had tea?! Oh man, your world really must be in bad shape! I've gotta fix that fast!

[survival-101.livejournal.com]

O...kay? Some old world weapon?

[lifesmegassweet.livejournal.com]

Only if you call getting megas relaxed a bad thing! Hahaha!
