Day 323 (Open)
Who: Colin, anyone interested in what he's doing.
Open: Like a convenience store.
When: Day 323, all morning. (BACKDATED)
Where: Several key locations around the Bastion.
What: Setting up surveillance systems
Format: Action to start, but anything's good.
Warnings: A short-tempered Colin.
[Just the other day he had been speaking with Nathan about the thefts that had been taking place. They'd agreed that some sort of surveillance system would be necessary in order to better defend against the thief.]
[Then the party came back, minus two souls, and Colin's mind went straight into defense mode. Cameras were purchased, sites were chosen, and plans were put in motion.]
[This morning Colin is moving from place to place, setting up cameras and wires as appropriate. Some of the cameras are huge, blatant affairs that can't help but be noticed. Others are tiny, designed to be hidden.]
[He's stopping by most of the buildings in the Bastion to set up at least one camera. If anyone has an opinion on big brother, now's your time to express yourself.]

The responsibility's fine. Everyone likes yelling at the people who actually do the work that inconveniences them.
How are you and N holding together? And the kids, for that matter.
[He gives Zorua a look.]
no subject
[ That was awkward. And painful. ]
We're okay, though ... or, as okay as we can be. N's emotionally scarred from what happened.
[ Then again, when isn't N emotionally scarred. ]
The kids are fine, though. Worried about us, but otherwise okay.
no subject
Why couldn't the calamity have sent us a therapist?
Is there anything I can do to help either of you?
no subject
[ Which isn't surprising, given how he was raised. ]
I really don't know what help can be given, but I'll let you know if we need anything.
no subject
Maybe see if AZ can get him to open up? Or perhaps Floette?
[Yeah, N's issues with words are a bit of a problem...]
Anyway, yeah. I'm always available to you. Are the kids wanting for anything? Other than pettin's for hours on end?
no subject
[ She shrugs. She's worried, but ... Not much she can really do. ]
Well, I know this one will always want the petting.
[ Zorua leans up and licks her mama's cheek. Love meeeee Mamaaaa ... ]
no subject
Maybe bring it up with them next time you talk to them?
[He smiles, and he reaches over to scratch Zorua's back.]
no subject
[ She sighs. She's clearly worried. But she also understands this isn't quite the sort of thing that can just be gotten over in a matter of days.
Zorua, meanwhile, is distracted by scratches. She likes that a lot. ]
no subject
[Still scritchin'. Yep, he's a Zorua-spoiler.]
no subject
[ She really did need a hug, truth be told. ]
no subject
[He sets his tools aside and he stands, opening his arms for Hilda to step closer.]
You too, Zorua. You're both getting such a hug.
no subject
AUGH, missed this somehow.
If you think of ANYTHING you need, anything at all, just ask. I'll do whatever I can.
and then I took forever to reply back 8Db
I'll be sure to. If we need anything, anyway.
