EVENTS: ________________ Rosa and Eigla decide to go on a short tree-chopping expedition. Choosing a small pine on the edge of the forest, they grab a pair of adzes and start going at it. Using their undead strength, they manage to get the tree down in just about fifteen minutes, despite the bluntness of their tools. Another half hour is spent dragging it back to camp, and a few more minutes to de-limb it. Not bad at all, considering what you had to work with! [AUTO MODE - You will continue to chop until noon] Meanwhile, Peggy scratches her head. Peggy: "Uh, no? I looted the flak gun off a Gun City patrol, no idea how I'd put it back together. Plus, I left it back at the basement. I could probably make another crossbow, though. It'd take some metal and a reasonably strong rope." ________________ |

"What about a more conventional bow? Or even a longbow?" |

Peggy: "Uuuuh... I guess? I don't have very strong arms, though, so it might not be really powerful or anything. Hand me a shiv and some leather strips, and I could *maybe* make one from a piece of firewood." |

"This may not be entirely on topic, but... Would you ever go back to a more conventional body plan? If I find you the right flesh? Something to hold everything together?" |

Peggy: "I wouldn't even think twice. Hell, if they hadn't cut my head off... But, you're just saying that. It's not like it'll actually happen." |

"We found that girl with the radio in her head. There has to be more out there. Maybe this is wishful thinking, but that's all I have left." |

There is a long pause. Peggy: "...Why are you being so nice to me? I, I don't get it. I only was honest to try and not get killed again. Like, I would cry and humiliate myself for that. And here you are, giving me food and shelter, offering to find me a body, in exchange for what? Getting to talk to me? It doesn't make sense! I, maybe I can be a bit useful, but you didn't even take my flesh! W-what the hell do you want from me, anyways? Are you trying t-to lull me into a false sense of security so you might betray and torture me later?!" |

"...yikes." >A little off-balance from Eigla's intrusion, turn back to her. "Because you might be made mostly of arms, but you have a real ♥♥♥♥ head screwed on your spine. You've been around far longer than I have. There are things force can't accomplish. There are things I desperately want that I can't get from charging in and turning on the murder blender. Because I am easy to kill if I am outmaneuvered or out-thought. You saw what the biter did to me. There are all kinds of usefulness. This world hasn't bent my sense of what I need. I don't want pain, I don't want to give it out, I'll never harm you willingly. I'm trying to revive a little bit of the old world or get dismembered trying. I don't really know what the girls want. Even so, you are along for the ride." |

Peggy, who'd taken cover behind Klimt's legs as Eigla showed up, slowly looks up at his face, clutching his kilt. Peggy: "...Promise?" |

EVENTS: ___________________ Peggy holds Klimt's hand back with no less than five of her own, resting her head against his arm, eyes closed. Peggy: "...Okay. I trust you." Looking up, you realise the sun is in the middle of the sky, marking mid-day. Rosa and Eigla return from their woodcutting venture, having felled and cleaned no less than five trees. ___________________ |
