At the Bar

[sigmund]

Apparently we have a tube system now. I am beginning to think Doc has a fleet of underground gnomes. No..I guess that would just be silly. Well... let me give this a try. (writes out an order for a whiskey on the rocks and sends it in) I suppose on the rocks might have been a bit unrealistic for the transport system. I guess I will see what happens.

[buebert]

*after giving himself a new hairdo by holding his head by the tube suction* An orange Soda Barkeep. Shaken not stirred. *you can almost see the 007 pose he was striking in the handwrighting. don't ask me how but you can*

[Albert]

Well that was an exhilerating strike on Colglough, though Mrh today Barha tomorrow I am afraid. There were a few more zombies out there than what we had anticipated but we handled it like competent professionals. Good Job gentlemen, or in Wulv terms Hazzah. Well, in celebration I propose a toast with this bottle of Single Malt Malton Special reserve I have been saving. It should be arriving in your pneumatic outlet shortly. Drink up everyone, but remember, moderation is the key to valor: we have cades to maintain and a suburb to repair. Cheers!

[Nameless]

On the rocks isn't too difficult through tubes (its just ice, after all). Shaking the orange soda, on the other hand, will not result in clean clothes for either of us, particularly for you after it moves through the tubes. I'll give one to you in person next time I see you, however.

[sigmund]

*through the tube* I've had a pretty productive day so far, I think I deserve a rest. *retrieves a container with his whiskey on the rocks in it. Looks down in dismay* It seems I left it too long. I suppose a whiskey and water is almost as good. *drinks it and replaces the container* how do these things get cleaned anyhow? I hate to think that we are all sharing the same container.

[Nameless]

We don't all share the same container, don't worry. Remember in those old western films where the bartender is always cleaning glasses? Something like that, except with modified syringes. Just don't order anything larger than ~3 oz, or I'll make you mix it yourself!

[SoloDogScout]

Hey Sam, could I get a syringe of Whisky over this way? I want to celebrate my 2 days in a row of hiding from the Heathers. **waits anxiously by the tube, looking over her shoulder, expecting to be shot at any moment**

[Nameless]

No problem, now that I can speak while dead! *serves up one shot of whiskey* And do try not to get shot up too much - it ruins my customer base.
I just had an idea - now that we can send alcohol through the NT system, why not try small supplies?

[SoloDogScout]

Thanks Sam, that hit the spot.

So far, no manslaves in sight down here.

So, what kind small supplies did you have in mind? I don't think FAKs would fit. Perhaps small food items to go with the drinks, though that might get messy.

[Nameless]

I was thinking somewhere along the lines of the much-needed bullets, but I'm not sure our bosses (the high-up assholes that got us into this mess, not the good doctor) would like us sending highly explosive material through the transport tubes. I'm breaking enough regulations as it is sending alcohol through (Revivifyer excluded, of course). Given that I'm serving alcohol on work time, I'm not really sure regulations mean a thing now. Its worth a shot trying, at least.

[Albert]

*walks into the room and sees solo looking towards the side of the building. Is about to exchange greetings when a series of explosions hits* *after a brief explanation* Sam, I meant to talk to you about this before you tried it but apparently I was a bit late. *picking debris out of his hair* The tubes are too high velocity for the bullets. The larger size and specific shape of the modified containers allows the suction on the gasket to stop them once they arrive, but bullets are too narrow and too heavy for this to work. If sent individually, they will not transport, and if put in the container, which is what I am told just happened, they apparently detonate on impact. Though I suppose this discovery itself may have some useful application *begins to pace while looking pensive*

[Nameless]

If only I could find some bubble wrap...
I assume the majority of people popped a lot of bubble wrap while looking for something to do after the quarantine. Maybe I could find some in a factory somewhere.

[Albert]

Foam would be more usefull but it will need to be so dense at the front and rear of the container that it may be difficult to make it practical. On the other hand, you seem to have found a way to attack a building at a graet distance. The primary drawback is tat it damages the transport system. It took me hours to reapir the tube terminal last night. In fact I would blaim that for my distraction when DeathSlap came calling if not for the fact that I feel obliged to admit that I had a nip or two as well before falling asleep.

[sigmund]

*the sound of splitering wood* Hey Sam, I am in the middle of a bad part of town with a lot of friends at the door. What is the most explosive *crashing* hold on a minute *the sounds of hammering* The most explosive thing you have on tap?

I would highly recommend trying the Kill it With Fire. I'm not sure as to how safe it would be to send through the tubes, though. But hey, I'm sure that Sam can figure something out.

[sigmund]

Ah but using a kill it with fire to actually kill it with fire would be a sad waste of good liquor though a fitting irony. I was thinking more along the lines of a bottom shelf everclear if there is such a thing. *the sounds of smashing* DAMN IT I SAID SETTLE DOWN OUT THERE! *the sound of gunfire* OK I give up whatever is fast and flamable will work.

[SoloDogScout]

**sits up and stares sleepily at Sigmunds message** Hmmm **fires a flare gun into the pipes** That should be fast, and it is certainly flamable... **rubs eyes and yawns** I wonder if I should warn him that it's coming? **puts mouth up to pipe** HEY SIGMUND, INCOMING!! **yawns again, and lays back down** There, that should do it. **passes out for the rest of the night**

[Nameless]

I apologize for not responding faster (IRL situation resulted in lack of internet for many parts of the past week), but I believe that gunpowder would provide the best solution. Remember when we tried sending ammo through the tubes?

Hello! *Echos "Hello, hello, helloooo..."*

Hee hee, Free booze!

*wanders in and looks around* hmmm? Now what happened to all of those liquifying tissue samples I was keeping in Sam's empty booze bottles behind the bar? *searches some more* That was nearly 6 months of cellular degeneration in there! *scoops up some pulped zombie remains from nearby and funnels them into another empty bottle, adding a bright blue solution* Oh well, If there is one thing we have, it is time. *Puts them back up on the shelf among the other bottles*.

[amilius]

....HELLLOO...HELllo .... Hello ...hello... ... ...
... ECHO!!... ECho... Echo... echo... echo... ...

Last one out of Malton, turn the lights off...

[Albert]

*wanders in and turns on the lights. Looks disapprovingly at all the dust and broken bottles* Solo and I leave for one week and this? *begins to straighten up* Ah well. Best to get this back in order. There is science to be done.

[buebert]

hey doc! welcome back!
