From down the hall, Gerades speaking was clearly audible. While he always seemed to be speaking softly, almost as if speaking to a child, somehow, his voice seemed to carry farther then most. After a few minutes, the group of people he was speaking to left his office, and Gerades secretary, a rather mousy, rough looking young woman looked back to her clipboard. She scribbled down some quick notes with her pen and looked back toward the multiple people in makeshift seating around her.

"Eddy Grey and hmm... Eli Ambrose. The two E names. Come this way, please."

Gerades new office, was, in fact, an old minimart, one of the few prewar buildings left intact on the small pre-war town of Copperton. A few people still called Bucket Town Copperton, Gerade among them. Down the hallway, Gerade waits in what was once likely a breakroom. Gesturing the couch before you, Gerade himself sits behind a makeshift desk and nods politely to his secretary.

"So hmmm. Your the two scientific types, yes? I rather hope so, because this matter is a rather pressing one. Now, it would be foolish of me to keep up the welfore of every being in the town, but I've been informed that we're running... dangerously low on medical supplies. And we need those with enough skill and expertise to attempt to synthesize some more. Buffout, to be precise. Doc says it's a decent substitute for heart medicene. That new sickness going around. Well. I've been told it primarily attacks the heart, and I would be a fool to not aquire some. I know... there used to be a reasercher who set up a lab of some sort in the sewer tunnels nearby. Worked on all kinds of experiments like that. It should have the equipment you need, and I've been told it's relatively safe."

Eddy listened quietly to Gerade speaking, trying to remember anything important. Eddy was sitting next to a scientific type, and Buffout was apparently good for the heart. A sickness was going around that was attacking the heart, and there used to be a researcher in the town. The researcher had set up a lab in the se- wait, what? Gerade expected Eddy and the man left of to the left of Eddy, Eli or whatever his name was, to scout out a dark sewer filled with things that have been living off of radiation and anyone stupid enough to go into the sewers. Eddy would ask Gerade a few questions, then ask for supplies, and then maybe go look for the guys lab.

"Ok Gerade, but I've got some questions first. What happened to the researcher? He just left all of his stuff in the sewer? What happens if we show up and nothings there, or it got wrecked by animals or something? Secondly, do you know if anythings in those sewers? I mean, anything from rats, to big rats, to rats who can only see in ultraviolet light could be down there! And I want some flashlights, ammo, and whatever else the guy to the left of me can think of."

Gerade chuckled quitely to himself. "As I said earlier, I've had people do some exploring in it. It's all relatively safe, other then a few feral ghouls and critters wandering about. I believe the old owner even maintained a mark I turret or two to keep his own chambers protected. He went there to do reasearch on feral ghouls or something like that. Said he worked for some outfit called 'The University.' I guess his reasearch dried up, because one day he just up and left. His whole lab should still be in working condition, it's been behind a heavy emergency door all this time. Terminal protected. If it's such an issue for you, I could also supply an old latern I have laying around here somewhere."

Gerade pulled out old-fashioned keroscene lantern. "Look, there really isn't much resistance, I promise you."

Eli nodded and took the latern from Gerade. "Has enough fuel, I would assume. If it's really as safe as you say it is, I really couldn't imagine much more we would need. If we do encounter some resistance, I'm sure the two of us could take care of it. You have a pretty decent condition energy rifle strapped to your back, and I've got my handgun. You look capable, and I have passable skills with my own weapons. Although, if you don't mind, I think it would be best if we get on the move now. I don't want to have to deal with the shit that tends to come out in the dark, ya'know? We could probably make it to the lab before nightfall today, hole up for a few nights and work on synthesizing some chems, and then leave in the morning. If that's an acceptable plan, that is."

Gerade seemed to chuckle, as he started to give his answer. "As I said earlier, I've had people do some exploring in it. It's all relatively safe, other then a few feral ghouls and critters wandering about. I believe the old owner even maintained a mark I turret or two to keep his own chambers protected. He went there to do reasearch on feral ghouls or something like that. Said he worked for some outfit called 'The University.' I guess his reasearch dried up, because one day he just up and left. His whole lab should still be in working condition, it's been behind a heavy emergency door all this time. Terminal protected. If it's such an issue for you, I could also supply an old latern I have laying around here somewhere." Eddy listened carefully, just like before. Jotting down mental notes, Eddy noted two things. One, Gerade seemed to be nicer then before, he was probably happy about winning. And two, Gerade had keroscene somehow. Eddy didn't really care about either of those. Just a couple of ferals? That didn't seem that bad at all, really. Twas easy money.


Eli was talking while Eddy was off in his own world, thinking. Missing the first part of what he was saying, Eddy started to pay attention at this point, hoping he didn't miss anything important.

" I don't want to have to deal with the shit that tends to come out in the dark, ya'know? We could probably make it to the lab before nightfall today, hole up for a few nights and work on synthesizing some chems, and then leave in the morning. If that's an acceptable plan, that is."

Eli's voice seemed a tad familiar. Perhaps they had met before? That wasn't really important now though, and Eli had a perfectly reasonable plan. "Yeah, I don't want to deal with that either. The lab shouldn't be that far into the sewers, and the sewers them selves aren't that far either. Plan seems alright, I suppose we're going to head out now?"

Eli took the old lantern and excused himself from the office. He was eager to see what was in the supposed reaserch lab. Hopefully it was in good condition, because it sounded like quite a rare find. Any rumor of scientific or chemestry equipment was worth looking into. It was rare, usefull, and worth quite a bit. Eli was equally eager to get to know his new associate, Eddy, as well. By the looks of things, he had to have above average intelligence, if not booksmart, at least practical knowledge. Not everybody could opereate and maintain an energy weapon, and he was picked to help do work in reaserch and chemestry.

Maybe they could work together and get more done then Eli used to be able to do alone. Of course, this was all assumption. It was entirely possible that Eddy was dumber then a bag of a hammers, but Eli doubted Gerade was foolish enough to select workers at random. Eli decided he'd have to actually talk to him to find out. "Sooo, Eddy, is it? What brings you out here? Doing work for Gerade, I mean. And, what's your skill in this area, man? I could probably hack any terminal to get in the lab, but I'm not totally sure I could synthesize anything really complex."

"Sooo, Eddy, is it? What brings you out here? Doing work for Gerade, I mean. And, what's your skill in this area, man? I could probably hack any terminal to get in the lab, but I'm not totally sure I could synthesize anything really complex." Eli seemed smart enough. He could hack terminals, that alone was an extremely useful talent. However, what confused Eddy was something else. Eli seemed really familiar, but couldn't remember where he last met him. Probably bumped into him while in Bucketown, or something.

"Well, I'm not exactly fit for any of the other stuff that he had us do, and to be honest when I worked for him before I was interested in the chems he had us destroy. Didn't use any of em though, trust me. I think I can brew us some chems, might need to stop by Doc Nances for advice though."

"Yeah, that might be best. Wanna swing down there real quick and see if we can get a recipe for brewin' this stuff up? I don't really know her directly, but I heard she was a pretty decent lady. 'Sides, we're the one helpin' her out. I figure she'll be real agreeable, ya' know? As for the Chems... hell, I ain't no saint. If I could get a steady source of the right stuff and the equipment I'd be selling it like there's no tomorrow. Fuck Gerade and the new laws. Business is business, ya' know?"

Eli started to head in the direction of Doc Nance's Clinic. It was only a couple of minutes away, and Eli was kind of curious as to what kind of setup she would have. When they where almost there, Eli clapped his hands together. "You know her, right? I'll let you do the talking then, man." As he glanced over at Eddy, he noticed he happened to be missing a shoe. It reminded Eli of something, but he couldn't quite remember what.

Wait, what? Did Eli just say what Eddy thought he said? Ok, was Eli even listening to himself? Fuck Gerade and the new laws? Did he really just say that OUT LOUD? And who does this guy think he is anyway? He just basically said that he was above the law. If he tried that shit in Bucketown, guards would be knocking on his door with in hours of his first sale.

Minutes went by, Eddy walking next to Eli as they headed to Doc Nances. Eddy had calmed down, but was still annoyed at Eli. While they were close, Eli finally spoke."You know her, right? I'll let you do the talking then, man."

"I've seen her a few times, went in to check out her wares when I first arrived in Bucketown. I think she saw me in Gerades church a couple of times, so we should be good." Eddy walked right up to the clinic, and knocked on the door several times.

"Come in!" A voice from inside yelled, she sounded different. Opening the door, Eddy saw Doc Nance sitting on a chair, reading some sort of book.
"Excuse me mam, Gerade sent us. We're going to go into the sewers to look for a chem building set, and we need to know how to make Buffout. Can you please help us?"

"Come in!"

The voice was pleasant, and had an upwards inflection at the end, like it was a question. It was a bit lower and gruffer then most womens voices, but it was reassuring all the same. If Eli had to guess, he would say it was almost motherly. Eli let Eddy take the lead, stepping just a little behind him and putting on a warm face.

"Excuse me ma'am, Gerade sent us. We're going to go into the sewers to look for a chem building set, and we need to know how to make Buffout. Can you please help us?"

Doc Nance just smiled and glanced over. "I was wondering if he would have to send someone over. If you guys are totally clueless, I guess I could make a run down there with you, if you make damn sure any critters stay the hell away from me. But... I've got some patients that I'd rather keep an eye on. If you've got the skills, I could give you some old burnt up medical texts that should be easy enough to decipher."

Eddy thought for a second, thinking. The medical documents sounded like the easiest choice, however that probably wouldn't be specific enough. He'd read through them here in Nance's clinic, and then ask questions. Jot down what he had to do on a piece of paper in case he needed further instructions. "Well, I think we'd prefer the medical texts. If you could give them to us, or we could write down a copy on a peice of paper, that would be wonderful." Eddy was trying his hardest to be polite, after all, the woman seemed rather nice. Besides, maybe after this she would give us a discount? A man could dream, Eddy supposed.

"Don't worry about it hon. You don't even have to worry about takin' notes. I know first hand how hard it is finding good paper and a working pen. I can barely afford to buy enough for medical notes from passing scavvers. You can just take the whole damn book for all I care. It gives it all in pretty simple terms, easy enough for anyone with basic scientific knowledge to use. I got the correct chapter marked out and everything, turned over a page. I figured I'd have to study up on the heart to prepare for whatever the hells going around right now."

She pulled out an old, bold green book. It was treated leather, although bits of the cover where missing, and the spine was in bad shape, repaired using some old bits of wire. Basic medical anatomy for the informed citizen. Vol. 3. Communist bio-warfare. "It's full of a bunch bits about Chinese insurgents, and other general bullshit, but it's got quite a bit of useful information. I mean, just a few days ago I was leafi-" As she spoke, a man in a bunkbed behind her began to spasm faintly. She rushed back to his side, scribbling on an old pad and puling out some medical equipment, using it to inspect the man in the bed in various ways. "It's all in the book. You should do fine. I would come myself, but I have to be here full time just to keep these ones stable. Try to do it quickly, will you?" As she spoke, she began to fill a needle with some unkown substance. "I can keep them alive if I'm with them, but if any more then this get sick, I won't be able to keep their hearts going until they get over this bug."

Eddy said nothing, and took the medical journal from Doc Nance. She was probably more busy lately, or Gerade was paying her to help more people out. Either way, she just seemed different. Eddy had no idea why, and didn't under stand why he cared so much. He said his good byes to Doc Nance, and quickly exited the clinic. Eli was waiting outside contently, and Eddy started to speak. "Well, we got the book. Remembered the page number and everything. Times a wasting, let's go."

"Well, we got the book. Remembered the page number and everything. Times a wasting, let's go."

"Alright, sounds good to me. We can go over any problems when we come to them. I'm not very worried... but the way Gerade was talking about whoever used to use the lab worries me. Almost makes me think that maybe he's still alive, and Gerade just refuses to recognize him. A man-of-god vs. man-of-science dispute or whatever. Then again, I guess I could just be reading to far into it because this all seems a little bit to easy."

Whatever the case, as they headed out of town Eli cracked open his pistol and loaded a single .32 rimfire long rifle round into the barrel from the back. The pistol was actually once designed for hunting, and that made it very practical for Eli's uses. Rimfire rounds where cheap and mass produced, which meant Eli could usually keep a handful or so of rounds on him. Currently, he was running rather low, which was why he handled what he had with care. In a moment, Eli realized the message he was probably sending to Eddy. Eli was begining to see that Eddy associated with people of a bit higher moral standard then Eli. With a little thought, Eli put on a friendly face.

By that time, they where nearly out of town already. Eli glanced over, apprasing Eddy all at once. "So, I have to ask. Do you know any Tailors around here?" Eli chuckled a little. "It's probably embarrassing for you, 'cause I know it's embarassing for me. I feel horribly underdressed. That's a nice jacket, with the tie and slacks to match. Good condition, too. You gotta tell me where you got that. I'm tired of looking like every other wasteland asshole."

It seemed like Eli was over worried. I mean, really? A man has been stuck in the sewers for several weeks starving his ass off eating rats and fending off possibly against ferals? Just didn't make sense to Eddy. Why wouldn't his university friends had come? Or some one from town checked it out? Eli was probably just making a found-less accusation. Well, he sure hoped it wasn't true....

"So, I have to ask. Do you know any Tailors around here?"

Finally, another man with an appreciation for fine suits! Eddy thought to himself, as a smile started to appear on his face. Eddy knew a tailor not to far off from here, nice guy, had a wife. Not so sure about children though....

"It's probably embarrassing for you, 'cause I know it's embarassing for me. I feel horribly underdressed. That's a nice jacket, with the tie and slacks to match. Good condition, too. You gotta tell me where you got that. I'm tired of looking like every other wasteland asshole."

"Well, the thing is I kind of, well, ok. This might take a while. So I was walking around in the middle of the wastes, alone. Wasn't my brightest decision, but I was kicked out of the last town I was in for spilling the chieftains beer. So, it was getting late and I saw a house. Not boarded up or anything, so I assumed that no one was in there. I walk in, head upstairs, and see this dresser filled with pre-war clothing. I pick one out, but then I hear some one opening the door and heading up the stairs. So I took out my laser pistol, and waited. He comes up, he goes for his gun, I shoot. So, I then take the body and try to drag it into the bathroom. Turns out, the bathroom is filled with like, twenty dead guys! So I take the suit out of the place, and leave."

"Well, the thing is I kind of, well, ok. This might take a while. So I was walking around in the middle of the wastes, alone. Wasn't my brightest decision, but I was kicked out of the last town I was in for spilling the chieftains beer. So, it was getting late and I saw a house. Not boarded up or anything, so I assumed that no one was in there. I walk in, head upstairs, and see this dresser filled with pre-war clothing. I pick one out, but then I hear some one opening the door and heading up the stairs. So I took out my laser pistol, and waited. He comes up, he goes for his gun, I shoot. So, I then take the body and try to drag it into the bathroom. Turns out, the bathroom is filled with like, twenty dead guys! So I take the suit out of the place, and leave."

"Well shoot. That's one hell of a story you have there... Good thinking taking the clothes and getting out of there though. A room fool of bodies sounds like some seriously messed up shit. Always suprises me, how crazy some people can get out here."

Eli and Eddy where almost to the maintanence access to the sewers by that point, and Eli could just barely see it in the distance. "This kinda sets my priorities straight. How am I supposed to land a good job if I look like some bottom feeder scavver. When we finish this job, I'll see if I can get something more then respectable. I think I saw a nice sweatervest-shirt combo in Trapper's a few days back" By the time Eli was done, they where nearly at the entry point to the sewers.
