[Along with the shift in terrain comes a transmission, one hitting the network within minutes of the move.]

This is Nick Valentine. Guard, report in with your whereabouts and what you're seeing on your end. Let's get this place scoped out as quick as we can. The sooner we know what we're dealing with on this planet, the better we can adjust.

[Last time, they ended up on completely separate islands, everything having been split in ways he hadn't expected. From what he can tell, things have been rearranged again, though the setup around the Speakeasy definitely rings familiar in the back of his mind.]

For anyone else looking to help, the Guard can always use extra hands. People who don't mind sweeping the streets every now and then, who'll keep an eye on the Colosseum once a month, who can handle themselves and protect others in an emergency. We're not the cops, but someone has to keep the city safe from whatever comes in with the new arrivals, and if that's up your alley, then give me a call.

[That'll do. Time to see what this new world is like for himself. Click.]

[Heh.] No, not really. He just got himself involved with some shady asshole he probably shouldn't have...

Namely the guy responsible for messing with my head for several decades.

Honestly?

[She hesitates.]

At first it just... It felt like he deserved better. Made it hard to connect with someone like that, so... Kept trying to push him away, make him leave. But he never did.

[The tenacity rings rather familiar, doesn't it, Nick?]

Wouldn't recommend that approach to your situation, of course. Just don't make the same fuck-ups I did with that sort of shit.

Well, he doesn't seem all bad. Just a little rough on the eyes, but that's something you two can relate to.

[Har dee har, another "Nick is ugly" joke. Despite her deadpan tone, though, she is very clearly well-meaning when she says it.]
