Terre Haute

[paradisamods]

[Today, our intrepid explorers have finally made it to Terre Haute. It’s mostly grassland, and on the outskirts small spotted lions, about the size of leopards prowl around. They seem to be more interested in the strange antelope running around than in any people, however. Towards the edge, lies a cliff face, looking out to sea, on occasion giant whales can be seen breaching the water.

Of the weird thing they came to look for, in the distance is a cylindrical shape, lying on its side. But between them and it is a strange village. One made up of excessively tall wooden huts, all of which have electric lights, turned on, though how they’re creating such power is a mystery, they are still very much inside the dead zone.

The residents of this off little village are wandering around, going about their buisess. The residents being a group of bemused looking giraffes. Perhaps you will even see some familiar non-giraffe faces milling about.

Welcome to Terre Haute]

[That's... yes. Okay.]

I might have to agree with you there.

Is it just me, or do they look really...

[secondchances]

Really... serious?

[hellshaped]

Yeah... as serious as a giraffe can look, anyway.

[secondchances]

People expected us to find weird stuff out here, but I wonder if they'll actually believe this.

[hellshaped]

The giraffes in general? Or just... this? [Gesturing at the... is that dancing? Can that be considered dancing?]

[secondchances]

Both?

[At least she has Lana's camera, with a crystal. She takes it out to discretely snap a picture or two.]

[hellshaped]

[Eying her camera...]

Be careful with that. This might be some kind of secret ceremony.

[secondchances]

All the better to document.

[hellshaped]

I don't know... I'm almost positive a mob of angry, stampeding giraffes won't be a good thing.

[secondchances]

I got it. Don't worry. [Smiles and tucks the camera away.]

It's important to report this stuff back. Pictures will help.

[hellshaped]

[He smiles a little too, though the way he does that is mostly just exposing his teeth. Mimicking human facial expressions is hard.]

As long as you're the one doing the reporting. I hate doing that kind of stuff.

[secondchances]

I'll leave it to someone else to write up stuff, but I'll definitely be willing to provide content.

[Aww. She figures that's a smile!]

[hellshaped]

Then it looks like we're on the same page about that.
