welcome to the jungle / it gets worse here everyday

Who: All draftees
What: Arriving at the (temporary) dorms
When: 9 AM of the 3rd. They'll be able to stay there until 1 PM of the same day.
Where: Dorms; location unknown.
Summary: Here is the hallway; here is your room. (Here is some additional info.) Go forth and mingle.
Rating: PG or PG-13 ish, I imagine.

Whether by their own power or by droid, your characters are arriving one by one to the dorms. Each room is specific to a single character; others can only be invited in by that character's allowance. Requested effects will already be present in the rooms. While you're here, you may want to request some last-minute supplies... this is your final chance to gather them. A final note: Shift incompatibilities will not kick in while characters are in the dorms; only once they are out in the field.

[Mulder looks very impressed.]

Tell me more about its capabilities?
i_speak_softly: (Neutral)

[personal profile] i_speak_softly 2011-06-04 02:38 am (UTC)(link)
[Tell you? Why?]

[Don points the gun into the room, but not at Mulder.]
May I?

[identity profile] ufo-fanboy.livejournal.com 2011-06-04 03:36 am (UTC)(link)
Go for it.

[Mulder gestures into the room, he's eager to see how it works.]
i_speak_softly: (A job well done)

[Don takes aim at the dropped basketball, and fires one blast. The ball immediately rises up into the air, coming to rest somewhere near the ceiling.]

Pretty sweet tech, huh?

[identity profile] ufo-fanboy.livejournal.com 2011-06-04 05:36 am (UTC)(link)
[He grins.]

Very. It looks like you're going to be well-equipped out there. Is that a typical weapon where you're from?
i_speak_softly: (I come in peace.)

[personal profile] i_speak_softly 2011-06-04 01:08 pm (UTC)(link)
It - doesn't really exist where I'm from. [He powers down the weapon and lowers it to his side - leaving the basketball floating in mid-air.]

[identity profile] ufo-fanboy.livejournal.com 2011-06-05 05:23 am (UTC)(link)
That somehow makes it even better. [He can't help but grin, geeking out about this is a rather helpful distraction from the looming inevitability of why they're here.] Good to see they're really not limiting us too much.
i_speak_softly: (Confident)

[personal profile] i_speak_softly 2011-06-05 04:14 pm (UTC)(link)
[He flips Mulder a less cool-looking device.]

These I made myself. Turtle-Vision Goggles.

[identity profile] ufo-fanboy.livejournal.com 2011-06-06 04:20 am (UTC)(link)
Oh? [They're still pretty cool to him, as he looks them over.] What sort of capabilities does it have?
i_speak_softly: (Don't start - you'll lose.)

[personal profile] i_speak_softly 2011-06-06 11:40 am (UTC)(link)
[With maybe just a small degree of pride:] Just your basic night-vision functions. Heat sensing, infrared, and spectrum analysis.

[identity profile] ufo-fanboy.livejournal.com 2011-06-06 03:02 pm (UTC)(link)
And you came up with them yourself? Consider me even more impressed, this is going to be incredibly useful out there.
i_speak_softly: (It was nothing much)

[personal profile] i_speak_softly 2011-06-06 05:54 pm (UTC)(link)
[Don smiles modestly and offers Mulder a few more pairs.] Know anyone else who would want one? I can request as many as we need.

[identity profile] ufo-fanboy.livejournal.com 2011-06-06 06:38 pm (UTC)(link)
A couple extra would be a great idea. I'll look around and see if there's anyone in need.
i_speak_softly: (My greatest creation)

[personal profile] i_speak_softly 2011-06-06 07:27 pm (UTC)(link)
[Don gives Mulder as many pairs of goggles as he has on him. He'll head back to his room to get more.]

[Gear like this is so worth being able to try out. It makes it almost easy to forget how deadly awful the situation is that they're facing. Almost.]

Thanks a lot for this, Don. I'm sure I'll owe you one for these saving my ass out there.
i_speak_softly: (Oh you're not attacking that's great.)

[personal profile] i_speak_softly 2011-06-06 11:56 pm (UTC)(link)
[He waves a hand.] No thanks necessary. You'll tell me the results of your biodata analysis either way, right?

[identity profile] ufo-fanboy.livejournal.com 2011-06-07 08:27 am (UTC)(link)
I have everything compiled back in my place, though I didn't get much time to finish going over it before we got yanked out to this. I guess that's one incentive to get out of here...
i_speak_softly: (Never say die)

[personal profile] i_speak_softly 2011-06-07 11:45 am (UTC)(link)
[... He can't help thinking of two nights ago.]

We'll all get out, Mr. Mulder. It'll be over before we know it.

[identity profile] ufo-fanboy.livejournal.com 2011-06-07 08:41 pm (UTC)(link)
Right. No one has ever gotten permanently lost on the drafts, from the sound of it.

[But as a first-timer, he can't help but feel that ANYTHING could happen out there.]
i_speak_softly: (This is my grim and serious look.)

[personal profile] i_speak_softly 2011-06-07 09:11 pm (UTC)(link)
[He nods.] Everyone gets teleported back at the end.

[But having seen many drafts come and go, he can't help worrying that sometime, SOMETHING will go wrong.]

[identity profile] ufo-fanboy.livejournal.com 2011-06-08 06:49 am (UTC)(link)
And the other drafts... we've fared pretty well overall, haven't we?

[So there's no reason why they CAN'T make it out of this one. He still feels unsettled about it.]
i_speak_softly: (Thinkin' stick)

[personal profile] i_speak_softly 2011-06-08 11:59 am (UTC)(link)
We always lose a few. [That makes it hard for him to agree with "pretty well".]

[Which definitely isn't great to know, and that makes Mulder ponder something. Other topics have had the priority so far, but the way death works is somewhere on his list of curiosities.]

And... even though they're revived, it still comes at a cost... We can be revived even if we go down outside the barrier?
i_speak_softly: (*cautiously defensive*)

[personal profile] i_speak_softly 2011-06-08 03:55 pm (UTC)(link)
[He nods again.] I know - or know of - some people who were killed in the war, and got drafted again a few months later.

[identity profile] ufo-fanboy.livejournal.com 2011-06-08 10:37 pm (UTC)(link)
How considerate of them, to bring us back to life so we can just keep fighting their war. [Mulder looks oh so unthrilled at that thought.]

If their fighters can also revive... what's the point to any of this? Do we really stand to gain anything from all of the fighting?
