Waking {Public}
Submitted by Brianna MacCulloch (NemesisKismet) on Thu, 2009-02-12 01:46
I would say good morning but I'm not sure what time it is or if it should be good. I suppose saying 'good morning' is like trying to decide how the day will be for you personally. I had been advised previously to my time in the experiment to write in my journal immediately - precisely why I'm rambling I suppose.
For propriety's sake, my name is Brianna MacCulloch and I am 18 years old. I'm from what is, after a bit of reading, apparently being called Experiment E and I almost feel like I should be ashamed. I'm still... very tired and my stomach is arguing with me. I have so many questions but I'm not sure where to begin. A general run down would be greatly appreciated.

Brianna, it's... well? Not 'good' to see you, given the situation. But good to know you're okay, at least. I wish I had good news for you, it'd mean I had some for the rest of us. The experiments aren't over, as far as I can tell.
Almost everyone here was in one of the projects, people can get as specific if they want. Some of us volunteered to come, to try and help. They told us that it was over, see. They said people were coming to help, and we'd get to go home. I won't doomsay (that's someone else's jurisdiction) but our prospects don't look good. We're running low on supplies, whoever's in charge has already cut our power once, and yesterday they let a fucking bear loose in town. So get your directory, find out who your neighbors are, and make some friends. We need to know each other if we want to rely on each other.

Hello Everett. I don't believe I properly thanked you for before out of general fear so, thank you now.
I'm almost afraid to hear the specifics but if they want to, I'll listen. I'd read a bit about the bear but I was hoping -- well, I don't know what I was hoping. It's sort of hard to think at the moment. This is all rather overwhelming. Your advice is appreciated greatly.

...Whoa. Brianna like "Hi, I'm Bri, I sometimes show up with cake?" Fuck, man, I thought I was the only one alive! (Uh. Camber, present and accounted for.)
I can't tell you much, I just got dropped off here too a couple days ago. Generally speaking, the town wasn't always deserted like this, I guess a little while ago people just disappeared, the whole town shut down except for who's here. Anyway, the people in town seem to be stocking up food and weapons at the church, or something...that's about all I know. But I haven't met too many others yet.
Anyway, fuck anyone who tells you to be ashamed. Everyone's living in the same place now anyway, there's no point.
Camber! Brill! Glad you're here -- well, not in the -- I mean -- forget it. You know what I mean, right? If I had supplies for cakes, everyone would be getting some. I think baking comfort sweets is out of the equation though.
You know more than me, Cam so any info is good info. In the church, really? I might have to check it out if I don't burst into flames upon stepping in the doorway. Yes, yes jokes are hardly appropriate. Don't rightly care at the moment.
It's not real holy ground, don't worry. God and I haven't been on speaking terms since before most people in this town were born, but he had no issues with me turning his crash pad into ours.
Oooh good. That makes me feel better. A lot better really. Ridiculously relieved over imagined unholiness.
Hey, I'm glad I'm here and not starving in the woods! ...Just hoping here stays sort of annoyingly weird and not really severely messed up. Oh, and there should be bits and pieces of supplies left in various stores, but...probably not cake stuff. Sad. Twinkies, maybe?
Glad to help - and I guess it's a good central meeting point? Don't really know.
I'll keep my personal opinions to that particular bit to myself for now... Does 'annoyingly weird' at all translate into 'surreal' because it sort of has that feel to it. Maybe that's just me.
Never had a Twinkie. Never want to. Real cake please.
Churches have always been that sort of meeting house thing, I suppose. I just find it kind of strange that it seems to be the immediate Flocking To point. Well, any port in a storm as they say.
