Arriving at the Facility

[hageshii]

Who: All Draftees!
What: Arriving at the dorms
When: As of this morning
Where: The dorm facilities outside the enclosure
Summary: General shenanigans for people inside the dorms.
Rating: PG-13, probably.

[After traveling through the tunnels, draftees will arrive in the hotel-like dorm facilities. For information on what to expect, please read here! This is open comment log for anyone, so threadjack away! But remember, you can only enter someone's room if they let you.

If you haven't already, check out this post and get your character assigned to a team!]

SPECIAL NOTE!! - Since this didn't come up before (but should have, my bad), there are actually a minimum of 400 Third Party soldiers in each area as opposed to in total. This means there are 1200 of them over all.

Good heavens, no! Zombies are quite frightening - I would hate to be around one.

[What. the. fuck. Still not sheathing the sai, still deciding whether it's even possible to kill you...]

Uh-huh. What happened to Sokka?

[skulljokelol.livejournal.com]

I haven't seen him just yet, actually! I hope to find him soon. But he asked me to take leadership of the team - hence why I had hoped to speak to you.

[meanandgreen.livejournal.com]

You're takin' lead?

[He adjusts his stance to something less threatening, but only slightly.]

If you wanna talk about team stuff, talk to him, not me.

[Don chooses this moment to wander back from exploring his room. He's now wearing a kind of black bodysuit.]

[To Raph:] Uniforms. What do you think?

[And to the skeleton, who is instantly identifiable from Sokka's description:] You must be Brook.

[meanandgreen.livejournal.com]

[He eases substantially with his brother beside him. He still doesn't put away the weapons, but moves out of fighting stance.]

You look stupid. [He points a sai at Brook.] And Skeletor over here says he's in charge of our team now.

[i_speak_softly]

[Thanks a lot, bro. Don't expect any sympathy when you're stuffed, kicking and screaming, into your own camouflage.]

Team A? [He'll offer his hand to Brook.] I'm your scout.

[skulljokelol.livejournal.com]

[Hrm. Sokka wasn't joking about that 'doesn't work well with others'. At least Donatello seems friendly though, and the offered hand instantly improves Brook's mood - not many want to touch a skeleton even for that long, after all.]

Donatello-san, I take it? A pleasure to make your acquaintance!

[i_speak_softly]

[Nod. He is indeed that person.] Likewise. [Although... your voice seems familiar.] Have we met before, Brook?

[skulljokelol.livejournal.com]

I think that we've spoken once before, very briefly! You were the one building the playground, yes?

[i_speak_softly]

Yes, I remember! We talked about swings!

[meanandgreen.livejournal.com]

[Okay, enough of this. Raph sidles up to Don and practically shoves him out of the way.]

All right, enough with the smalltalk. That ain't why we're here.


[To Brook:] You got somethin' you wanna say?

[skulljokelol.livejournal.com]

I do, as a matter of fact! [Serious face now - but he has no face. Skull joke.] As I was saying just before your brother arrived, I am in charge of leading this team. I am not one to give strict orders, but I do have certain expectations nonetheless.

I imagined it would be best to tell you all of this now, rather than wait until we're actually out there. I will need to be able to rely on the both of you, after all.

[meanandgreen.livejournal.com]

[Raph folds his arms and stares stubbornly up at Brook for a long moment.]

Just 'cause you call yourself leader don't mean I gotta listen to you.

[skulljokelol.livejournal.com]

Hm? [Voice still as pleasant as always.] Just because you may refuse to listen does not mean I will not hold you to certain expectations.

Though if there is any way for me to earn some small measure of your respect before we go out there, I am willing to do my best to do it.

[meanandgreen.livejournal.com]

[It's really hard to argue with you while you're being so pleasant, yanno. He's almost considering walking away from you already.]

Yeah, well save it. You got your expectations and I got mine.

[i_speak_softly]

[To Brook:] One moment.

[To Raph, with a gesture up the hall:] A word?

[skulljokelol.livejournal.com]

[Small nod.] Of course.

[He'll just wait over here then.]

[meanandgreen.livejournal.com]

[Raph sends both of them sour looks before grudingly following his brother up the hall.]

Don't even think about lecturin'.

[i_speak_softly]

[Don moves out of earshot of Brook before turning back to face Raph.]

What's the problem?

[meanandgreen.livejournal.com]

[He growls frustration under his breath.]

I ain't takin' orders from some jerk just 'cause he says he's in charge. 'Specially not this walkin' bonebag.

[i_speak_softly]

What are you planning to do, fight the war by yourself? He's just trying to keep things organized.

[meanandgreen.livejournal.com]

I ain't stoppin' him from getting organized. He can do whatever he wants. Just keep me out of it.

[i_speak_softly]

And how will we know where you are? [He means: In case you need help. But he'll say:] We wouldn't want to accidentally encroach on your territory.

[meanandgreen.livejournal.com]

My territory's wherever I'm at. [Eyeroll] It ain't like I'm gonna go take a walk in the park or somethin'.
