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.]

So shades are only supposed to protect your eyes or something?

Well, they're not really big enough to protect much else.

Think I'll make do with my hand for now.

Alright.

[Booster sticks a hand out in Catherine's direction.]

Name's Booster, how about you?

[She hesitates for a minute before taking the handshake.]

Catherine. Just showed up?

Nah, I've been around for... about a week now, I think. You?

Week and a half, going on two. Weird place, don't think I needed to tell you that.

Like I said, pretty unusual. As far as I can tell, at least.

Not just that, everyone's from different places as well, or as far as I can gather. Like there's a few people with really odd ways of speaking, but that's just one example.

What, like, a weird accent?

No, more like... like you'd almost expect thee and thou and I mean... archaic! That's the word I was looking for!
