Welcome to the Lone Breaker System. The planet consists of a single ghost town that replenishes its stock daily, and a desert that does not. There are quite a few points of interest, no consequences, and a mystery to be investigated!

I just lost my home.

I'm not so eager to fill the avoid in a place where we are essentially trapped.

[postocular]

Maybe you'll want to eventually. Losing your home is hard..

[dothelokimotion]

[ Loki purses his lips. That seems like a foregone conclusion to him. Not that Asgard was particularly kind to him, but it was all Loki had ever known. ]

I don't know.

[ He . . . just can't picture it. What should a home have? What are the things a person should have? ]

[postocular]

There's no rush, Loki. If you don't, you don't.

[ Home is a hard thing to pin down. Sometimes it's easier to not consider a place home because it's an easy thing to lose. ]

You've got your brother, and that's what matters.

[dothelokimotion]

[ He can't help but laugh softly. ]

For now, at least.

[postocular]

It's always for now.

Doesn't get easier when they leave, either.. Or when they come back.

[dothelokimotion]

[ This feels vaguely ironic, especially since Loki is the one leaving and coming back. Unconsciously, his hand rests on his chest, where an old wound resides. ]

We're used to it.

[postocular]

..Yeah. Grin and bear it, right?

[dothelokimotion]

With a bloody smile.

[postocular]

Have you been to the other parts of the city?

[dothelokimotion]

No. I'm mostly looking to build up my supplies.

[postocular]

There wasn't much in the houses, really.

[dothelokimotion]

I'm not surprised. This is not a prison or a fort. It was a place like any other. I suspect that is why tragedy befell it so quickly. They were not prepared.

[postocular]

People lived here, it just.. doesn't look like it at all. If there weren't photos on the wall, they'd look like those model houses.

[dothelokimotion]

[ Loki looks at him blankly. ]

Model houses?

[postocular]

They're homes that nobody really lives in, but are set up like someone does? So people looking to buy a house can see what it might look like?

[dothelokimotion]

[ What a . . . bizarre concept. ]

Do people not make their own homes? Or provide their own designs?

[postocular]

Most of the time no.

[dothelokimotion]

Putting your home in the way of what a stranger might build seems . . . reckless.

[postocular]

Well, people just build around the other homes most of the time.

[dothelokimotion]

I suppose there is only a finite amount of space.

[ Hrff. And Asgard is moving to this planet. The worst. ]

[postocular]

[ You're going to love it, Loki. ]

There is a lot of untouched space, at least. For as developed as a lot of places are.

[dothelokimotion]

It won't be the same.

[ Which is a good and bad thing. Asgard had bloody roots, but it was still his home. ]
