[Overall- this seems like a pretty good way to reach everyone. Or most of everyone, at least, and Yda's thinking maybe she could do with a couple of hands here.]

Hey! So- you all know the buses, right? I've been thinking, and I mentioned it to a couple of people- but I'd like to find out more about them! And how they work. Plus- if we get one, we could take a tour of the town and beyond! I've been watching out for them a bit, buuuut…

Well, it might be more than a one-person job. [possibly also someone to keep her on task would be good!]

Plus, if you've got any ideas for getting a bus to slow down, and getting us on board- I'm all ears! If anyone's got any kind of Slow skills, that'd be good.

[You can find Yda out near where she's spotted the most buses coming in, squinting out- trying to see if anyone's on their way. She'll wave at anyone she spots, offering a grin.]

Here to help?

[ The Courier had become quite... relaxed in this world. Relaxed enough to wear more casual clothes, to sit out in Pelican Town as he talked out over the network - though he wouldn't be opposed to people answering in-person. Honestly, he had gotten used to the fresh air and fresh food by now - but things had began to bother him. Things which couldn't just be puzzled out. ]

Hey. Six here - maybe you've seen me delivering mail around town. There's a lot of different things here - for those who communicated with my earlier, I've acclimated to the food.

But now I've got one of those deep questions. What do you think makes something like humans? Me, I think if something shows a desire, that makes them alive. But on the other hand, that'd include things like Cazadores - you know, they have the desire to poison and kill us. Can't stop thinking about it.

[ There's a long pause, as Courier seems to be finding the right words. The right question - they don't want to be too obvious, but... (listen, they are considering what it means to have such a big crush on a robot.) ]

...Also, I'm looking for people who know about robotics. I doubt there's any engineers who're familiar with RobCo here - but the tech's rather sturdy. I've got a job. I'll pay handsomely, too.

[ For the rest of the day, though, they're just. Walking around the town, checking for answers and writing notes on their Pip-Boy - notes about locations, and the such. ]

[It is almost Horatio's birthday. Generally speaking, that doesn't mean much. Birthdays have always been an odd mixed bag--meaningless until the next one was twelve, and now simply a grim reminder that there were still years of fear to go. What's been... nice? comforting? reassuring? about the idea now is that it will feel like the flip of a switch.

A month ago, Horatio had been certain he wouldn't live to see his next birthday. Now--if, admittedly, in the oddity of a pocket of space-time that only half-counted--he would.

And generally speaking, that's a good thing. More specifically speaking, it's made Horatio's panic jump from zero to sixty upon his first encounter with something that felt too much like home to continue the good 'going to make it' feeling. So, instead of finishing up his master plan to get himself an apple tree today, Horatio is shutting himself up in his house and texting out to the rest of Starhue.]

Does anyone know how to get rid of hornets?
Quickly and efficiently and without getting stung.
They might not be hornets but they sounded like hornets.
Quite a few, although I did not count them.
-HH

[If anyone actually drops by, unlike most days, Horatio will absolutely not be out in his fields or scrambling through his trees. Visitors will have to let themselves up to his door and bang on it to get him to unbarricade himself from the relatively bee-free safety of his house.

The outside chance that they're absolutely just nice, normal honeybees hasn't actually entered his mind, but that's panic for you.]

[ You heard it here first, folks. If you're listening, there's a rather angry sounding ~~banshee~~ woman who's had about enough of this place, and would've liked to go home hours ago. But here she is, with a bit of a sniffle behind her thick accent. ]

Well, this is just grand. If there's anyone in this wretched place that'd like to talk about bartering some lab equipment, I'd be in your service.

And, I'd also offer services to someone who can get this hay out of my backyard. It simply cannot stay, no matter what.

[ There's a sneeze somewhere in the background. ]

Services rendered depends on what you'd need. I specialize in medicine, but it's not likely what you're thinking.

Good day.

[ Another sneeze. There's probably a red faced, living in a tissue Moira behind that audio somewhere. God someone please come get rid of it for her. She can't go near it. Some things genetic editing can't seem to fix. ]

[As you go about your day, you will either see a hulking robot ahead of you or hear the sound of his wheel and motor as he comes up behind you. Either way, you will see a large square robot with a happy smiling face on his monitor. He rides around on one wheel and may seem imposing. He rolls right on up to you and stops before he gives you a cheery greeting.]

Hello there! I'm a PDQ88-B Securitron. But you can call me Yes Man! I'm wondering, do you need any help? Or can you point me in the direction of someone who does? Maybe the person in charge around here? I'm good at helping people become in charge. If I do say so myself!

Also. Have you happened to see a Courier around here? Scars on their head from being shot there? I'm just wondering. You never know, right?

Anyway. It's wonderful to meet you. I don't think I caught your name, with all my ramblings. I'm sorry about that. Unless you don't want me to know! That's perfectly okay. I don't mind.

[The voice that comes online sounds automated, mechanical. Like the voicemail guy on the phone! But it's a person, and he's here for introductions.]

Hi.

My name is Zer0 / I have only just arrived / straight outta... the bus.

Our mission is clear / however, I do not care / it's freaking boring.

[He only sounds like the voicemail guy. He's clearly made of attitude.]

Instead, how about / we go into the mountains, / kill some badasses?

[ As new arrivals pour in by bus, you might notice the Station Café, with wide windows open to the bus stop and a smattering of treats behind a glass counter smells richly of coffee, complete with a chalkboard proudly boasting the roasts of the day. And here to take your order is...

Marjorie, face down, asleep, with a 'NOW HIRING' sign propped up in front of her.

The papers surrounding her are a dizzying array of notes on all of you here... but when you dig for the goods on who's a murderer and who isn't, all you get are a list of most liked and disliked foods, and how to boost affection with them. She'll be quick to wake up and snatch them from you if she sees you with them, as they're confidential.

So, want a cup of coffee? See who's arrived this week or are arriving yourself? A notice on the wall says 'ALL OUTBOUND BUSES SUSPENDED UNTIL AUG 15TH DUE TO HYPERDIMENSIONAL SHIFT NOT WORKING FOR OUTGOING BUSES'

The cakes and sandwiches are just above your average JojaBucks kind, homemade but sleepily in the AM kind of way. They're a bit sloppy.

Another sign on the wall has a map of Seagull Town and all the vacant buildings in which to start businesses. On the counter are pokeballs, emblazoned with a seagull and a small 'seagull town' engraving-- they're souvenirs, but they work. ]
