[so have one curious looking Jane Foster, recently woken up and in the ship]

All right, this is interesting. I seem to have found myself in a pod in a crashed ship, and frankly, that doesn't look like Earth tech. And need I add that it looks like somebody went trigger happy with the terraforming? It looks a bit desolate out there.

My name is Jane Foster, and so, um, who's out there, and what is going on?

He's... surprisingly true to what was written. I didn't actually think people could be that honourable and genuinely nice. But I'm sure he'll check in and you can see for yourself.

[Pepper twitches an escaped lock of hair behind one ear, and actually answers the question put to her.]

Most people seem to find some place to stay in the city -- there are a lot of ruined or abandoned buildings, some in better shape than others, and a lot more than the population of the city needs. Um. If you need a place, I've found one near the hospital.

[Jane raises an eyebrow, and nods]

I'll appreciate it. And how will I find it?

Re: [Video]

Come by the hospital and I'll walk you there. There are still a few street signs here and there, but not enough that I'm subjecting anyone to directions using them.

The hospital's actually located underground -- remnant of some war-era design, I think...

[And insert some directions, as precise as Pepper can make them, and including things like 'turn right at the third collapsed building'.]

Just ask where I am when you get here.

[Jane nods, and starts moving]

There shouldn't be any problem in getting from the ship to the city, is there?

Not right now. A week ago there were stray dinosaurs -- long story, I'll explain later -- and a wildfire had made things hazardous, but it's pretty safe at the moment.

There are only about 1500 people here, rough estimate, so the streets are safe through being deserted. Pick your favourite post-apocalyptic city setting and you've pretty much got it.

Somebody else told me about the dinosaurs. Hudson, I think? So as long as there aren't stragglers, I should be fine. I have directions, so I should be able to find the place.

Re: [Video]

[pepperspray]

Hudson?

[Pepper looks briefly pained, but also faintly amused.]

If you're talking about the private first class with an inflated sense of his own charm, I am so sorry. I'm thinking a rolled up newspaper might be in order...

I'll look for you at the hospital, then. See you soon, Jane.

More like a stout stick, applied several times to his head. Then maybe he might get a clue.

[she nods]

See you soon, Pepper.
