Why'd You Kill the Merchant?!

Who: ALL O' Y'ALL
Broadcast: If you want
Action: FRICK YEAH PARTY AT THE JUNKYARD...I mean, Waystation. Junkstation.
When: 10/07 - Event End

It looks more like a junk heap than a waystation, but luckily there aren't any math fetishists to add you to the pile (hopefully). Talk to the scavengers and heed their warnings...if you want. Or perhaps you'll approach a shady individual for purchasing or selling stuff.

"Welcome, stranger!"

[He considers that for a long moment.]

I think so, too. I think that's true.

Were people mean to you, too, cus they want to feel tougher? When you were smaller?

[The question straightens his spine, stiffens his bearing. It takes him a good few seconds to reply.]

Yes. But they're all gone now. [By happenstance or on purpose; he made certain of it. Others still exist out in the world, those former Nazis who'd fled and pretended they were unaware, or only following orders. He could find them, he knows, if he set his mind to it the way he used to. Track them down and kill them.

Those days were over, though.]

[He nods, looking very serious — giving Erik his full attention.]

Me, too... The people who were mean to me. I don't gotta be with them anymore. [He considers his past for a moment; it was years ago for him now, but it still leaves a terrible wound on his heart when he remembers too vividly. He makes a little fist, as if trying to scare those terrible memories away.] I used to be so scared. Even after I got away. But now... Now if I ever saw them again, I'd let them know they hurt me bad, but they're not gonna touch me again!

[His adoptive parents taught him that. Kaze and Heather and Ned, they all taught him.

He's much stronger now.]


An'... that I'm a better person than them!

[This child died. It isn't a fact Erik had forgotten, but it strikes him anew. The bruised and always hurting part of him crumples inside, and it takes him a good moment to take a breath and push through it.

He reaches out and pats Takeshi's head, a bit awkward.]


You are. Remember that.
