The cargo liner is now nestled amongst the ruins of an old castle - Presumably from somewhere in the UK or Europe. More specifically, the castle is missing a wall, and the back sixth of the cargo liner is nestled in it while the rest of it pokes out. There's also a skyscraper buried in the ground, tilting slightly. Shay is very proud of the new additions to his fort.

He's standing a little way away, grinning proudly at it and wondering whether he should find a way to add a gate of sorts.

Conway is a heavy sleeper.

In fact, he's such a heavy sleeper that he slept through Shay's little construction job, so when he wakes up, he is... rather confused.




He appears from behind a castle wall with a very puzzled look on his face and shouts, down towards Shay, "WHAT THE HELL, SHAY?"

Conway, startled, promptly rests his weight back against Shay.

"Christ, you should have warned me or something, I thought I was kidnapped or something."

Beat.

"Long?"

Conway blinks.

"I don't know and -- yeah, I guess?"

He turns his head just enough to notice the GIANT SKYSCRAPER, and promptly yelps.

"WHAT THE FUCK?"

He's a jumpy thing in the morning, he is.

"Is that thing going to fall? It looks like it's about to fall."

IT'S GOING TO CRUSH HIM.

Breathe.

"Sorry -- nightmares."

"Apocalyptic... things," he says, motioning with his hands. "Trying to eat me."

"M'brain's not exactly situated in Kansas," he sighs, leaning his head back against Shay's shoulder. "Was in Scotland."

A giant dragon with five eyes stepped on his old house, then set the countryside on fire.

"Good to know," Conway says, sounding a little... well, miserable.

"'least it kinda looks like home, now."

...

"Goddamn," says Valerie, awed. "All this place needs is the CN fucking Tower and a couple compliment'ry dragons."

Happily, "Not a clue. But I gotta say, if they can get this much shit in here in a day, they should totally stick the Tower right there to cap it all off."

She points to a place just shy of the cargo liner's front end.

"Don'tcha think?"

Despite often-overwhelming evidence to the contrary, Val Bell isn't an idiot.

"Yeah-huh. Considering it, eh?"

[identity profile] selflesslight.livejournal.com 2007-12-09 04:42 pm (UTC)(link)
"Lemme know if y'need any help with that. It'd be nice. Like a little piece of home, y'know?"

Val grins fondly in a general northerly direction.

"Since home's full of dead squid and crushed buildings at the moment."

"Yeah, but dead ones make Lake Ontario even ickier'n it already was. And trust me. That's an accomplishment."

Blink.

"...you seriously just called Canada Mooseland, didn't you."

Bliiink.

"Fucking Mooseland."

Val cracks up.

"Dude, that's hilarious."
