Hey, all.
Brought to you by my going home a spell and returning here just about a decade later by my reckoning — what amenities would you say you miss most from home?
Now, for my part. I ain't a man of violence, but if I ever meet the fella or dame that outlawed smoking here I'd sure give them a stern piece of my mind.
For the newcomers, pleasure to meet y'all. If you're still in the process of getting settled, I'm happy to swing by to help get you situated.

It's not the same. Maybe I'm turning into a hipster.
[ That's a scary thought. ]
Those are details. But I haven't gotten messed up since the last attack so I'm counting that as a win.
Fuck, you got a kid now? How old's he?
no subject
Given what I've learned of hipsters here, I would absolutely believe that. Next thing you know you'll be telling kids off your damn lawn.
Reckon that's fair. I'm glad, by the by. That you ain't been hurt. Lord knows I can only patch you up so many times.
Fifteen. He's a little greaser punk — don't know if you know what that is, but it's a subculture of sorts up north a spell. He was getting into all manner of trouble and his dad hauled him outta it, but Alex, he... ah, he's in a delicate line of work ﹙ read: 'spy' ﹚ and can't have a kid tagging along after him.
Didn't ever expect to have kids, myself, so it's kind of a pleasant change of pace.

I already got the creaky bones, might as well go full grumpy old man. Still kicking, though. You've patched me up just fine. But I'll try not to make more work for you. Only got punched in the head once in my last fight, anyway.
Huh. Fifteen. I was an idiot when I was fifteen. Good luck.
Seem like you'd be good at it, though. Dealing with kids.
no subject
Only once? Wow, who are you and what've you done with my pal???
﹙ the shock! the horror! ﹚
He's a handful and a half, that's for sure. First thing he did was hotwire my truck and crash it into a tree about a half mile from my house. Woke him up at 0400 for a run every day for a month after that.
I do like kids, and I try my best, but honestly — it's mostly passing on what my folks handed down to me. They were both real swell.
no subject
Ha hah. I've mellowed in my old age.
[ It...might actually be true. Shockingly. ]
Sounds like a handful.
[ Not that Ephemera was any better at that age. Dumb as a rock and twice as stubborn, when he looks back on it. ]
But it sounds like you know what you're doing, at least. Passing that stuff on.

It's a nice reminder that life goes on. In fifty years — Hell, a hundred — won't be no one that really thinks about the War at all.
no subject
[ For better or worse. ]
It's a nice thought. Wonder what it'll be like back home in fifty years. War's over, but it felt like nothing really changed. Maybe it will, eventually.
