Alright, we're going to go out and look at Whitney's infrastructure. so far it's me, John and Emmett for sure. Anyone else who wants to volunteer, we'd be glad to have you. Rules are we're just going to check things out, we're not making any promises yet.

They want more reliable electricity than just their gas generator and solar panels, with hot showers on the wish list.

If there's a simple repair we can take care of while we're there, we can do it, but let's not get caught up on every leaky pipe or broken outlet.

I'm going to schedule with Mara to see what days would be good for them for us to visit, and I'll keep you guys posted on that.

Thanks for everything, as always.

Hey.

We're ready to move forward with your request. What day(s) would be alright for us to go out with a handful of people and inspect your facilities?

Yeah, I've been "deputized".

Showers seemed like a simple thing we could do to help people's quality of life over there? But I also told them I'm not the boss, and I can't make promises. I'm just some dumb grunt.

Congratulations, Deputy Wright.

I wasn't aware they lack showers at Whitney, but I agree. It also benefits the health of the broader community, if we're going to be mingling at the Summit. I don't believe I need to remind anyone about what happened to us when the flu passed through. Anything that keeps our neighbors healthy will keep us healthy, I think.

I didn't even get a badge.

I don't know if they lack them completely, or if they just don't have hot ones. But your point still stands. Public health initiatives benefit us all.

You can trade for one at the Depot.

No hot showers, that's a bit grim as we enter the colder months.

Nah, I don't want people to think I'm a cop.

Yeah, jeez.

A pin then. "Deputized Helper."

I was just joking anyways. I don't want anyone to look at me.

[personal profile] lineman 2024-10-09 01:04 am (UTC)(link)
Ah. [...] Then I will attempt to provide cover for you during our visit?.
agriculturalist: (096)

Lundegaard.

[personal profile] agriculturalist 2024-10-09 01:12 am (UTC)(link)
No, like, I just mean, I don't like being the center of attention. I'll just quietly do my work and then get out.
lineman: (010)

Lundegaard.

[personal profile] lineman 2024-10-09 01:14 am (UTC)(link)
Are you afraid something bad will happen if you do attract attention? This is a genuine question. Because I think we may end up attracting some attention, being guests invited to assist the Depot. Also, you are very tall.

No, I'm just [...] shy.

[personal profile] lineman 2024-10-09 01:18 am (UTC)(link)
Ah, a large body but a small appetite for attention. I understand.
agriculturalist: (027)

[personal profile] agriculturalist 2024-10-09 01:19 am (UTC)(link)
Besides, you're like, the same height as me.
lineman: (056)

Lundegaard.

[personal profile] lineman 2024-10-09 01:20 am (UTC)(link)
You are taller. I've checked multiple times, don't worry. And my appetite for attention is a little larger than yours.
agriculturalist: (051)

[personal profile] agriculturalist 2024-10-09 01:28 am (UTC)(link)
Why I mean, you're an Alderman, so you kind of have to be in the spotlight.
lineman: (123)

Lundegaard.

[personal profile] lineman 2024-10-09 01:29 am (UTC)(link)
Yes, it works out, doesn't it. I get some attention, which I don't mind. Almost as if I intended for it to be this way.

[personal profile] agriculturalist 2024-10-09 01:36 am (UTC)(link)
And in not being one, I get left alone. So it works out for the both of us.
