These words I've shared

[thepull_mods]

Who: Open Log for all those who let themselves get taken in.
When: September 1st, 1918 and September 2nd, 1918.
Where: Undisclosed barracks at the Missionworth Military Base
Summary: The Military wants answers, and they're hoping you can help give them. Also, there are at least temporary beds. Try and sleep off that hangover.
Warnings: Interrogations will only go as badly as expected.

Though the newcomers haven't been treated as an overall threat, they have been taken to their new location as quickly as possible, and under fairly heavy guard.

Those guarding the newcomers vary between overly interested, and incredibly wary. Some seem to barely be able to hold back asking questions, and some clearly expecting a fight at any moment.

Needless to say, the tension is a bit high.

The newcomers who came quietly (Or at all) are held for the meantime in an empty barracks, bunk beds lining the walls and a bathroom off one end of the hall.

Periodically, a guard will come by and request for someone to follow them to be questioned.

It's likely a good idea to follow.

No. I tried to go forward. When the headache cleared my ears were still ringing. [Dave scratches at his cheek.]

No idea why yet. But it seems pretty important. Did see what they were putting in the papers? Everything feels...clean? I don't know how to explain it but I don't get this impression of grit or being absolute bastards to people.

[twin_armageddons]

For fuck'th thake. [What is with this place, seriously. Sollux sighs, again, shuffing closer so that they can talk and keep their voices low. This whole town was run by skeevy amateurs. ]

Yeah, I read one of them but it doethn't make much thenthe to me. I know we're probably in for a world of shit though, I can tell you that much.

[moveslikestrider]

When aren't we in for a world of shit? [Probably never. His voice is low but audible to Sollux. Dave frowns as he keeps his hands still on his thighs. An edge of tension touches his voice as if he can't quite keep it out.]

The Core brought us here, to this point in time. Before newcomers like us existed in the eyes of their town and before it was well known. This place is way too damn rural and peaceful.

[He pauses.] Ugh.

[twin_armageddons]

At leatht you're human. Pretty thure people like me and KK are at the top of their litht for doing whatever fucked thingth up, at we should be if they've got any thense at all.

I'm thtill thinking we should butht out of here.

[moveslikestrider]

We need to get you and Karkat out of here, yeah. I’m going to stay a little longer. [Dave runs a hand through his hair, pushing it back away from his shades. He’s tired but he knows what he’s doing. He leans closer and lowers his voice.]

But I can get you out really quietly.

[twin_armageddons]

Yeah. Quiet would be betht.

[He could get out of here, but it wouldn't be quiet at all.]

...Have you actually theen him? I've been trying to find him all day. All I found wath your buddy John.

[moveslikestrider]

I haven't seen him either. Maybe he's further back. [He shakes his head and scans around for the loud, often angry troll.]

[twin_armageddons]

Are you kidding, it'th Vantath, you're going to hear him long before you thee him. There'th no way he'd jutht keep quiet if a bunch of thtrange humanth came and thtarted to order him around, you know what he'th like.

[Sollux doesn't see him OR hear him though, so the other troll must still be outside somewhere, hopefully. With any luck he'll meet up with one of the other kids and they will keep out of sight until this blows over.]

[moveslikestrider]

So he's probably not among us then. [He lowers his voice again, carefully.] If you find him when I get you out, tell him to not pull anything stupid I'll be along to update him on everything I know.

[twin_armageddons]

Well of courthe I wouldn't let him do anything retarded Thtrider. Not like your friendth are any better though, I bet they are out there right now thinking up thome horrible plan that ith going to fail and leave them in twice the trouble they're in now.

[moveslikestrider]

Yeah, that's the point. At least one of us will be out there corral operation stupid. Because that's just how they are. The smart kids get to chase them and tap down on the failure rate. Only whatever happened here will happen so how effective that is will probably not even matter.

[twin_armageddons]

[Another sigh. Why does he have to do fucking everything himself?]

We're wathting time thitting here chattering like a pair of thcoolgirlth. What'th the plan?

[moveslikestrider]

The plan is I'm going to set up a system to get messages to and from in here to out there. I've already done it so I just have to start the loops to accurately close'em. Saw myself on the way in.

I'll get you out first with my time bis then find Jade. [Because that's what the note said.] I'll have her get in touch with you.

[twin_armageddons]

At leatht you shared, AA wath apparently doing all thortth of crazy time shit she didn't let anyone in on.

I'll get out and go hang out on a roof or thomething, have thome peace and quiet for once.

[moveslikestrider]

Nah, I did that too in the Session. If it's supposed to be one way, it goes that way. We secluded ourselves to prevent dragging anyone else into the doomed timelines.
