Thanks, Ben [Mingle]

Date: 4th of January 20, 3 hours after everyone came out of the cavesCharacters: OPEN


Three hours after everyone came out of the caves, an earthquake of the magnitude 5.7 shakes the echo boundary.

Up on the ruins, a single block from one of the lower walls gets dislocated and falls.

Down in the city and villages, things go a bit worse. A couple of sheds collapse, things fall over and off things, and some houses are left with cracks in their walls and might end up condemned. A number of telegraph poles fall over and a few on cars. There's three injured and no fatalities over all, and a few related car accidents because people got distracted that again go without fatalities.

...And, of course, the Media are back. The next day, the Sun titles "IS THERE A NEW CRACK IN THE EARTH'S CRUST??? Another earthquake strikes Mossgate 4 houses condemned, 10 admitted to hospital, powerlines down", but newspapers with more journalistic integrity send reporters as well.

Someone else is back, too - Numbered will see Mr Neutral, Mr Evil and Mr Helpful wander the streets.

"I'll check with her in a bit."

Far be it from her to not attempt to get snacks where they are likely.

But that's not why she is here (yes, she can't quite believe that herself, either. It's true, though). "What exactly did you do?"

That she remains gets a brief glance but nothing more. She could simply be curious.

Irritated with himself after a long night spent awake dwelling on what happened, he answers with regret, “I chose the wrong place to climb, and when I came down it disturbed the mouse enough to shift away from me. The movement of something so giant was sufficient to cause the earthquake.”

"...so that's what cause the other earthquake, too? And the tsunami?"

Huh. That's. Certainly not what they said in science class.

"How was the place that you picked dumb?"

“Possibly. We can’t know for certain, and with Mr. Evil at the forts we cannot rule out his influence for the tsunami without more information.”

Her word choice with her second question makes him flinch in discomfort, but he does answer, “...I was too near the head. The change in the air current caught me off guard.”

It takes her a moment to try and interpret the air current. "...It breathed you off the wall?"

That's. That's some massive breathing. And if sleep-breathing is that powerful, just breathing...

Yeah. She does not want to see it wake up.
