Status report from the field teams? Same for the rescue teams. We have people out in both locations and from where I'm sitting you guys are moving pretty fast.

The layer itself isn't at a risk of collapsing just yet, but I don't really want to take a bunch of chances.

Also my office has since been taken over by Whistler's Mother and I can't get her to leave, so it looks like I'm temporarily moving. Again. Anybody else having this problem?

Report to me with anything you need. The map on my system's filling out as much as it can, but I feel like I'm missing pieces.

Keep each other posted. Oh, and heads up? Looks like tech had one more batch of testers they were going to bring in, so...if you see anybody new? Try and get them up to speed.

Points for originality but Doubt that'll look good on my recommendation to the hospitals and fire departments I'm applying to

Then maybe you need to be a little more convincing.

Or get better at writing resumes.

Yeah, about that The guys I'm with are the ones who write the letters of recommendation

How does that work? "We recommend this guy because he's very good at knocking on doors"?

"Very good at giving simple commands"?

[Ah, maybe he should explain a little more.]

I've been putting together mini first aid survival kits for families for while they're out of a home Medical attention when it's needed

[ damn it crow how can he be an obnoxious brat about that ]

So you're doing what you're told and the families aren't? I still don't see how that affects you getting a job.

[Aw Malik! He lives to keep you on your toes!]

Believe me, I hear ya. Some of them are some per retty annoying customers It's tempting sometimes But they usually have kids with em

Kids are small. Just pick them up.

[Oh my god Malik you can't just grab someone's child!]

That. Is kidnapping.

No? You aren't running off with them. It's like firefighters pulling kids out of windows or literally any other time an adult picks up a child because they think it's the right thing to do.

Tell that to the parents Especially if they don't want to go...

I'm not going to do your job for you. I don't even like kids.

No worries there You are pretty much the last person I'd expect to do anything regarding first aid Or human safety

Whatever doesn't kill you makes you stronger, as they say :)

That they do You could apply that to your lifestyle too, you know

Yes, I am well aware of that fact. Doesn't change the fact that I'm forced to be adaptable and stay one step ahead of misfortune.

Aren't we all But since you're here, I don't think you need me to tell you to be careful if you're gonna be wandering around these parts Still Be careful

I've already gotten attacked by a raccoon.

I hate it out here.

[It is so tempting to make a 'trash' joke, but Crow will hold his tongue.]

They're nasty little buggers Where are you even at

Some questionable factory-type place with a machine made out of eyes.

[Oh shit.]

Malik I know your mantra is to do the opposite of what everyone tells you, but I mean it Leave Get out of there and walk down the mountain slowly

I'll freeze to death.
