[Video: Thursday morning, very very early]

[Somebody's alive again, and managed to trudge out of the ship just in time to catch that flash of light. She wasn't quick enough to catch that part on her phone, but she's catching this. She has the video feed pointed at the glow on the horizon, making sure to get the mountain and bit of the ship in the shot for directional reference.

Rather than actually making a big deal about coming back to life, she's focusing on that, thanks.]

Anybody know what's that way that might've exploded?

[She keeps the feed going for a few minutes, and then cuts it off, not really expecting a reply tonight, considering the hour. Though she'll certainly not be sleeping, if anyone else is awake....]

[This is not proving to be a good morning, with insomnia and illness and the last edge of a migraine conspiring to keep Kaidan awake until the message comes in. He prudently opts to leave the video off.]

At that distance, it's hard to get a read beyond 'not nuclear' and 'not meteor'. If I had to guess, I'd say some sort of facility got torched. Are you mobile?

[A wry huff of a laugh greets that.]

Uh, yeah, that would count as mobile then. Best we can hope for right now, around here.

I think you should. Take one or two other people with you, in case of bandits, see what's up at a distance. I'd volunteer to go with, but I'm pretty sure three people would sit on me if I tried.

There's still some -- I think Darwin's on her feet, which isn't surprising. I mean, could a dinosaur even get the Black Death?

[There's another huffed sigh, as Kaidan takes a moment to run his hands through his hair, all unseen, and reflect on just what turns his life's taken.]

And, I mean, who's going to mess with you if you've got a really big friend with giant teeth with you?

Don't just look at the site, look for signs of other people being interested in it. A thing like that, it gets everybody's attention, so you might learn something from who else is interested.

That and if it's the Authorities, they'd probably just shoot you if you crossed paths with 'em.

The rest is old hat. Be alert, move slow, keep your eyes open, don't trust anything without challenging it first... the usual. Oh, and if you can get video footage, do it.

Less the Authorities, more bandit gangs, scavengers from other cities... you're probably not the only one to have seen that explosion, size that it was.

Maps, I dunno. Check around the stores, maybe, or the Vault of Knowledge?

Good plan. I'm not a fan of the plague, I've got to say. Although if it's 'again', maybe you're immune now? I'd say have a doctor take a look, but they seem to be thin on the ground right now.

Watch your six. Hope you find something.

[Resurrected women are starting to become a trend around Kaidan. This doesn't mean there isn't a long pause as he processes this news.]

...You're pretty matter-of-fact about that. And, uh, 'six', like the layout of a clock, if you were at the middle of it. Twelve is in front of you, three to your right, nine to your left, six behind you... it means watch your back.

Forest fire?

[Underground as she is, Ashley hadn't caught the flash of light preceding the glow.

Her voice is raspy and sleep-vague - the communicator has apparently woken her from a doze, at least, if not from dead sleep.]

Eurgh...did you catch it on video? Can't really extrapolate from the aftermath. I mean, aside from it looking more like fire than ambient light effects.

[Muttered so low the mic almost doesn't pick it up:] Sounds like Major Alenko and I need to have a chat.

[Teenagers, Kaidan. You don't send them off to track explosions!]

Some of the people running from the plague headed that way, didn't they? If you get in touch with them first, maybe they had a better view from that side of the mountains. At least they could tell you if you'd be walking into an armed camp.

There's a difference between not sitting around and doing nothing, and running off without a solid plan and steady backup.

[And the skill to pull it off, though she's smart enough not to say that part aloud.

Sorry, Haruka, but teenagers saving the world isn't something that happens in her universe. Cocky kids, though - they are.]


I don't have names and numbers, but I'm betting someone would, if you asked around. There was that guy looking into who survived after the raid, if you don't find anyone else.

[There's a low snort of amusement.]

Most people probably aren't sleeping with these things right by the bed. Besides, if whatever you saw brings the bastards in the dome out, better we have a heads up.

Just so you know, I'm gonna expect you to elaborate on that "again" thing later.

[She'd press the issue now, but between the meds and the illness itself, she would probably pass out halfway through the argument. And that would just be embarrassing.]
