maskormenace | [02] Video; Backdated to Friday May 1st

[ Hey, everyone. It's Walt. You may remember this guy from such videos as drunk posting in his underwear. But in case you don't (and hopefully you don't), Walt is fully clothed this time. He still looks every bit as weary as his video debut, but at least he isn't drunk. That's a plus. ]

I apologize in advance for any inconvenience. It seems as though the Heropa pharmacy was caught up in whatever chaos erupted in the city and suffered some damages. We will be closed until further notice, but I will be doing my best to ensure prescriptions still get out to everyone who used my pharmacy to have them filled. We have a sister pharmacy that has temporarily taken on accounts here in Heropa. Though if it's more convenient for imPorts, I can have things forwarded to the other imPort cities.

Repairs have already begun, so I don't anticipate us being closed for over a couple weeks. If anyone wants to offer their assistance in helping rebuild the damaged sections, it would be greatly appreciated. Otherwise, I hope everyone has been well and continues to be well now that the worst of this is all behind us.

Yeah. Not something I've ever... thought was possible. ... and, yeah. My friend, um. Her name's Winry, you might know her. She and her boyfriend both caught it.

No, I'm not familiar with her. But I did hear the name. She was one of the people to administer the cure, was she not?

Well, she's a mechanic, so maybe her skills came in handy somehow. I'm not really sure.

I wonder if Kaylee knows her, then. Kaylee's one of my roommates and an excellent mechanic herself.

[ Walt finds it strange to see so many female mechanics when you would be hardpressed to find one in his home city. It just takes a lot of getting used to, even though they can do the job way better than he ever could. ]

Oh, uh, I think I met her when I first got here. Seems like girls around here are really into machines, huh? I don't even know much about my vespa. They've got me beat.

[He's right, though. It's just the difference in amounts. But mechanics seem to suit them, too, so Riku's not going to say anything about it.]

[ Walt chuckles softly. ]

You and I both, Riku. Maybe they can teach us a thing or two in our time here.

Maybe. Honestly, I'm thinking it'd probably be a good idea to learn about my vespa. Maybe one of them can teach me...

I'm sure they could. Actually, you would probably make their day if you asked.

Heh. Probably. Guess that's a thought for later.

Hey, listen, Walt? If you need a hand cleaning up, let me know, okay?

I wouldn't want to trouble you. But the more help we can get, the better.

I don't mind. Delivery work is kinda a whenever-I-want-to job, so I can do things on the side no problem.

Deliveries, huh? Do you think you would mind delivering some prescriptions to patients?

Nah, I could do that. Impulse and I run a delivery service.

[Riku leans back, rummages in a pocket, then holds up a business card.]

I'll help you out, though, no charge.

[ Walt leans in, squinting at the screen to read the card before he smiles. ]

Flash? Is it related to Kid Flash, perhaps? He offered his assistance as well. What a nice, young gentleman he was.

He did, did he? He's not a bad guy.

[A little grating sometimes, maybe. But Riku nods, remembering the question.]

Impulse has similar powers, yeah. Being able to move at superspeed. That's why our claim is that we can deliver things faster than anyone else. One of my powers, I can't move like him, but I can open portals.

Who needs a vehicle when you can have imPort powers?

[ Walt offers a chuckle. ]

It sounds like you two are quite a team. You and this Impulse fellow.

Well, that's it, right? Sometimes I have to take the bus if it's to a place I'm not familiar with, but I'm figuring it out. And... yeah, you could say that. He's a good kid.

It is a good way to get in practice. You know, just in case the day comes when you'll need it. Like more dragon attacks.

[ Walt frowns, hoping there are no more dragon attacks. ]

Uh... yeah. Heh, I'm not sure we'll have anymore of those. Crematia's gone, so...

Funny thing about this world, though. You never know what it'll bring next.

That's true. Well, that could be good or bad.

I do hope it brings you some good at some point.

[ Maybe a friend from home or a new friend. Riku does deserve some good in his new life here. ]

Same to you, man. Really. Like... no more blown up work buildings.

[ Walt laughs. ]

I hope this is only a one time deal. If it happens again, well, I'll really have to question my luck.

It'd be suspicious if it happened again, wouldn't it? Like someone was targeting you.
