[So, it's been about a day. It felt like a lot longer, especially during the night, and by now he's not just scared but incredibly bored. Sleeping isn't really a thing that's an option for lots of reasons, so he's had a lot of time to both think and reread a lot of conversations on the network; there's something that stood out to him in that time, and it lead to this post.]

Okay, so a lot of people are here without any of their friends from home, and this whole thing going on is a pretty bad time to be on your own.

[He can't imagine what it would be like being in this situation while thinking there's no one looking for and caring about you specifically. It isn't just the actual rescue that's the issue, though--especially since who gets found when is pretty unpredictable--it's that there might be people that don't have anyone to reach out to. There might be people who are totally alone in this.

So I was thinking that anyone who doesn't have anyone to talk to can just join in conversation here? People who do already have friends to talk to can too. Meeting new people is at least distracting even if everyone's probably not feeling all that friendly.

I guess just talk about whatever. What's it like back in whatever world you're from, any cool skills (if they involve getting out of being buried that's a plus,) anyone in college before they ended up here? Whatever topic is going to be better than nothing.

I mean I dunno about you guys but I definitely don't have anything better to be doing.

Dude, that sounds awesome, running into walls or not.

[And a little shock prong is still better than nothing.]

Not really. My life was pretty average, you know? I was in college.

I think he's cute.

College is cool. Preparing for the future and all that. Learn any survival tips about being buried alive?

I've gotta see it sometime after this whole mess.

Surprisingly enough, no. Starting to think it was a waste of money.

[Because clearly college is not teaching him anything important.]

I'll show you when you're out!

And geeze, any college that doesn't tell you what to do after being buried alive is a definite waste of money. Pretty sure that was on my curriculum, alongside how to treat gunshot wounds and how to sell out your family so you can have no weaknesses and get ahead in life.

Sweet.

Yeah, seriously. I'm not getting any important life lessons like those from any of my classes.

[And some of those seriously would be useful, except maybe that last one. All he knows about being buried alive or treating a serious injury he learned from watching the discovery channel.]

Wow lame.

Hey, you don't know where you are, do you? I mean, you seem like a pretty cool guy. It'd suck if you died.

Super lame.

I wish I did, but that'd be too easy, right? Thanks though, I appreciate the sentiment and all that.

My friends are looking for me, so I've got a good chance of you know. Not dying and all.

That's good. I'm not really into manual labor but I'd dig if I knew where you were.

Hope your friends find you!
