Network Prompts
ONE: IT WON'T BE LONG NOW... Well, you made a mistake. You spent too long searching around, or you ran outside near the end of the day for just one more thing, and now you've been locked out. You can search around all you want, but the best shelter you can hope for is pressing against the side of a sealed up building. You do still have your tablet, though. Maybe someone on the network can give you some advice, or at least some comfort while you wait for hypothermia to set in.
TWO: CABIN FEVER Maybe you didn't want that mistake of getting caught outside to happen again, but now you've ended up staying too long in one location, and cabin fever has set in. Maybe you're taking to the network to try and ignore the hallucinations. Maybe you want to tell everyone that you've figured out they're all in on your kidnapping. Maybe you ended up wandering off and now you'd really like to know if anyone can check back in the place you were at for your pants.
Action Prompts
THREE: AN UNEXPECTED MEETING You're going about your business searching what seems like it might be an especially promising house--it's fully intact and there's even a working fireplace with some wood! It looks like someone else has the same idea, though, and you've run into them in the middle of your search. Do you share the potential wealth or try to kick them out? On the other hand, maybe you know who this is, or maybe you're just glad to actually see another person for the first time in ages.
FOUR: GOOD MORGUE-NING You've just woken up in a morgue after dying in one unfortunate way or another. You have no idea where you are beyond that, but your tablet is insisting you can't stay here, so you should probably get out of here pretty quickly. Of course, bringing people back from the dead isn't a perfect science, so you're missing something important to you. Maybe you've lost your voice, maybe you can't remember where you're from, maybe you can't remember where you are right now. It looks like someone else is nearby, though. Maybe they can help you out?
"The paranoia is indeed something I could go without," Helena said with a nod. That had not been pleasant when she'd attempted to make herself a home in one of the buildings here and then found herself growing more and more paranoid until she'd left and kept moving. While being alone and isolated wasn't new to Helena, it was something that ate away at her. She needed to be around people after spending the past one hundred and twenty years more or less in isolation.
But she did her best to focus on the mystery of the place, to keep moving from place to place and seeing what there was to discover. Sometimes it worked to keep her from dwelling on things. Sometimes, however, the isolation crept in. This place certainly didn't help Helena's insomnia, that was for certain.
"Roughly the same as you. I've found some drop points, one morgue, and a few other buildings. I've tried to move in a grid pattern, doing my best to mark the places I have been in. Though some days it is entirely easy to become caught up in exploring and forget you need to find shelter, even when the alert goes out." It was more than handy that the tablets gave out the warning, but it didn't exactly mean much when one was deeply invested in figuring something out.
Martha had experienced the paranoia as well, and did not like it one bit. Hers had been bad enough that she had ended up in a new place with no idea how she got there. Apparently that wasn't out of the realm of possibility though.
And she was trying to keep notes of people she met on the network. Or even just notes on who was on the network, so even if she didn't talk to them, she was aware they existed. It was a lot of work though, and people did slip through the cracks. Like Helena for instance. Martha was sure she'd never met the woman before.
She does pick up on the topic of being stuck outside. "Have you been stuck outside yet?"
