49th PSI

[Lucas puts on his serious voice.  He hadn't known he had one until recently, but apparently, he had developed the ability to not sound like a timid eight-year-old sometime when he wasn't paying attention, and so he pitches his voice as low and as authoritatively and as 'um'-less as possible.]

Everyone.

I'd just like to remind you... this is exactly the kind of thing that Karkat went to the trouble of asking about safe houses for.  Please, if you're alone in your house or if you don't feel safe when whatever happens happens, please know that you're completely welcome to take refuge at any of the houses that were volunteered.  If you don't have a list, I can read it off for you to copy.

And to everyone who volunteered their healing services when I asked the last time... Please be ready for anything that might happen, too.  It would be wonderful if people could know exactly who to go to in case of a severe medical emergency.  If you have any sort of power to heal at all, magical or otherwise, and you're willing to help out, please let me know, too.  Everyone else, again, if you don't know who to turn to, I can read off the list for you to copy.

Thanks.  And... be careful, everyone.

((OoC: The list in question can be found here.))

I am alone with these "drone" people.

Though, I think I may stay here.

I feel what will come will be personal experience I rather see alone.

[a-gentle-boy.livejournal.com]

If... you're sure about that. ...At least, maybe you can ask a neighbor to check in on you every once in a while?

[change-seasons.livejournal.com]

If I need it, I will ask.

I wonder, have you died here before?

[smallestgrave.livejournal.com]

Well said.

I'm already on the list Mr. Vantas made, but I don't believe we've had the pleasure of speaking yet.

[a-gentle-boy.livejournal.com]

Oh, my name is Lucas. I was the one who collected the other part of the list - the one about the healers. It's nice to meet you, miss.

[smallestgrave.livejournal.com]

Alice Eliott. It's a pleasure to make your acquaintance.

I'm actually a rather gifted healer myself. I also have protection magics at my disposal. Perhaps I should offer that to people as well...

[heartstar-blues.livejournal.com]

I don't know about the rest of this town, but I'm going out to face whatever comes head on again.

Good luck and stay safe, okay Lucas?

[a-gentle-boy.livejournal.com]

[Lucas is torn between wishing the Captain luck and begging him to be more careful. ...He does not recall a single instance when the Captain facing something head-on has turned out to be a good idea.]

...

I will. But... I'm going to try to fight, too, if I can. You should be careful, too, Mr. Captain.

I can't heal, but I have a way of getting people to safety really fast. Do you think that would help?

[a-gentle-boy.livejournal.com]

Is it like teleportation or anything like that? Well, even if it's not, I'm sure it would be, of course.

[hispalette.livejournal.com]

Flying. I have a Pokemon that knows how to. He's no slouch either, so he can hold his ground if anything tries to come at us while we're in the air.

If it comes down to it, I can put up everyone in the TARDIS. She'll look after everyone has best she can.

How good that best is though, I dunno.

[a-gentle-boy.livejournal.com]

Everyone? Everyone in town?

[The voice is slightly familiar, but he can't quite place it.]

Um. Do you mind if I ask who the TARDIS is?

action i guess, since he pretty much lives with you now =P

[perfektsymmetry.livejournal.com]

I-I wish I could say there was a way to prepare, but... A-As always, we don't lnow what we're preparing for.

[a-gentle-boy.livejournal.com]

[Lucas glances up at Crowe.]

...Yeah. I have a feeling we've been overdue for something really bad. Like the hazmats and the Russian man. Or Westport.

[He wouldn't have responded if one thing Lucas had said hadn't stuck out to him: alone in your house. When he speaks it's very casually, as if he isn't really terribly concerned.]

You mind telling me what's going on?

[a-gentle-boy.livejournal.com]

...Um.

Well, I'm not sure exactly. Do you mean about what the Mayor just said?

[gezellighe.livejournal.com]

Lucas. . .

[It's a little hard for him not to want his friend to come over, to be closer. . . but. . .]

Look out for yourself.

[a-gentle-boy.livejournal.com]

...I will. And you, too.

If something happens, I'm definitely going to come by.

[heardeadpe0ple.livejournal.com]

I'm not sure what's going on. Has something like this ever happened before?

Should I perhaps head to a friend's place for the time being? There's only two of us in this home for now.

[a-gentle-boy.livejournal.com]

...It's never a good sign when we hear things like this. Whether they let it leak on purpose to make us afraid or whether it's really an accident... something's going to happen.

I think it's probably best if you do.

[timetables.livejournal.com]

Are you seriously listening to Karkat of all people. I'm pretty sure that in a crisis situation, that is the absolute last thing you should be doing.

[a-gentle-boy.livejournal.com]

...What do you mean? Is the information he got wrong or something?

[badend-replay.livejournal.com]

Thank you. Could you read the list off to me? I'd like to place my "sister" in one of those houses.

[ /reads the list, no need to actually type it up. ]

... Will you be somewhere safe, Lucas?

[a-gentle-boy.livejournal.com]

I'll be alright, Rika. ...I volunteered my own house, actually. There's a few of us now with PSI here.

Who's your 'sister' here?
