[So... This weekend has been a bit of a downer.
But that doesn't exactly stop Peter from needing to do his due diligence for the community, and all that jazz. So he peels himself out of his bed and puts shoes on and actually pretends to be a human for a sec here. And if he drags on some stupid shirt he got for Wade from the thrift store that got left at his house, it's not like it can't be his; he's an idiot with bad choices in fashion too. And if he happens to pick the guy's gaudy tupperware to eat cereal out of, it's his business in his own townhouse.
Okay, uh. Some hours later (and looking through Wade's overly decorated place), he manages to recollect himself enough to get through... whatever it is this is gonna be.]
Hey, so... uh. Hey! How's it going. As a... heads up, the delivery dogs are acting really weird. I mean, I absolutely love dogs, but I don't really want to be possessed by one ever again. I was this close — [He pinches his fingers together, almost touching.] — to eating a dead bird before the doggo left my body. He's still a good boy, of course! But he can be a good boy... across the lawn...
Other than that? They seem really unsettled by something. Dogs usually have a pretty good sense for things — I usually joke that they all have a spidey sense without even needing to get bit by a radioactive spider, so we should keep a close eye for any trouble they're pointing their cute ghostly snouts at.
And please, for the love of all that is holy and moly, don't try to pet the 13-foot-tall ghost mooses.
Meeses?
[He clears his throat, and taps on his device as he distantly sends out some text responses.]
I've also got a pamphlet for anyone who needs information regarding the town. It's not perfect by any means, but it's at least a way to get as much information about the place in one spot until we can get something better set up. I'm gonna send out copies via Fluid right now, but I also make sure to give out copies to households in case something happens to our phones and we don't have a way to spread the info.
[ATTACHMENT:// PPPP(S)]
If you have anything you need added, any recent revelations, let me know. More than happy to update it.
[A pause.]
And lastly... Wade Wilson's gone. Um. You know. Left. He's not in Deerington anymore.
[Another pause, as he glances down, gnawing his lip. He smiles a bit though once the moment passes.]
I'm fine, by the way. I've been sort of... anticipating it happening... for a lot of people I care about here. I know it's not always going to last. So many people come and go in our lives here, and you just... remind yourself that it's all temporary. Here or in our worlds. Everything — everyone — they come and go. So... make sure you value the people you've got here. I know this place sucks a lot. You've seen it recently, with these trials... with everything. But we're the best thing we've got for each other. And we can keep each other sane, and get through this.
Sorry, that's pretty Hallmark of me, I just...
[He runs a hand through his hair, and shrugs, gaze lingering away from the screen before he blows out a breath.]
Anywho. I got a ton of stuff from his place — I mean a ton. I'm pretty sure he might have had a hoarding problem? Like, it was 100% something a dude in a nice chair would diagnose. Anyway, I got a lot of things here. Like... so much tupperware, I don't even know what to do with it all. And knives. So many knives. Where do you even find that many knives?
... I took my fair share of things [like photos of them, notes, little gifts and mementos and drawings of the stupidest jokes, that stupid soup boy doll that is now locked in a drawer somewhere-] but I've got a lot more left that I'm pretty sure he'd hate to end up in a dumpster, even if he was a dumpster diver connoisseur.
[He absolutely put up a pinky and said connoisseur with the sophistication of a man wearing a monocle on purpose in the year of our lord 2020.]
I've got... like... twenty lawn gnomes, for one thing? Please, someone, come take a lawn gnome. Take a gaggle of them. And I've got boxes of knives, of course. An endless sea of arcade tickets...?
... A lot of potentially haunted dolls...
[He rubs the back of his neck, trailing off.]
Just hit me up if you want something, I'm sure I can dig up some weird thrift store nightmare to part with.
Nothing illegal to offer here, though. [... He smiles thinly and glances aside, eyes half-lidded and full of judgement for the idiot who up and vanished on him.] I flushed all the drugs hidden in the floorboards, so those aren't up for grabs. So sorry.
[He's not remotely sorry.
... Sometimes you just can't help who you love, huh?]

Not...to be prying into personal lives of the departed, but Wade Wilson. That dude that Cable hates?
[Anyone that Cable hates is A+ in her book, by the by.]
Wears a red sock, shoots things?
voice
Oooh, yeah. That's him.
He's pretty good at getting under people's skin. Especially the local tough guys. They're practically wearing a big sign that says 'come bug me, Wade Wilson'.

... Also I'll take one of those gnomes, if you can guarantee they're not cursed or somethin'. They got that look about 'em, and if this friend of yours had haunted dolls...

[... He grins.]
This is Deerington, so... I can't guarantee they won't be haunted later. But right now, I think they're good. No weird vibes.
... I mean, no weird vibes outside of the normal ones you get looking at lawn gnomes.

[While it might be better for Wade, it still sucks to lose someone and Rhys knows it.]
If you think any of those dolls are haunted, you should throw them in the lake. Best way to get rid of them without letting whatever's inside, out.
Video
Life's a b-word, sometimes.]
Thanks. I'm sure the 'friend' would appreciate it. [He grins at that, because hey, it's partly right. They were friends. Among other things that he's never exactly bellowed to the heavens or anything. Uh.] I don't know if he'd be too thrilled about them getting thrown into a lake...
Well, okay — I'm mostly just worried they'll crawl out of the lake, seeking vengeance.
Imagine the big mouse one dragging itself out on the bank...
Ooo, man. I get shivers.

But he was gone by the time I got there.

Actually, it's Captain Jack Harkness. Vira-Lorr told me to hit you up for some information on this place and the strange things that go on. I've had some experience with investigating strange things going on, in a city.
[A pause and some clicking around] ...Wow. That'll take some reading and listening, but I've got time on my hands. Been staying in beatin' the heat.
And I might be able to take some of those lawn gnomes off your hands. Been wanting to gnome some folks here, once I get settled better. This town knows how to roll out the welcome wagon!
Voice
You got it, Wolfman Jack.
I try my best when it comes to welcome wagonning, even though I... usually don't have the best news for the newbies. But hey, you absolutely can have a gnome! Last thing I need is dozens of them staring at me when I eat my cereal in the morning.

let's handwave for now and maybe do something event-y
action.
I'd go with meese, personally.
[It's the first big loss in awhile, and she's not sure how she's feeling. Distant, maybe. Raw. A little dangerous. There's always a part of her that wants to make sure the universe sees her pain, when it's too big to hold in her own chest. But right now, she knows she can't. This is bigger than her.]
action.
It's just hard when you've got a penchant for being sad in your house.
He sits on the floor of his living room, which has plenty of boxes in it, all filled with things from Wade's house.]
Meese is way better an option.
How was the, uh... walk... here? The swim here? The float?

[He's not the best at Social Skills, but he likes Peter, so he's going to make an attempt here.]
I'm sorry about the person who left. I didn't know him. It still sucks, losing someone important to you. But you're right. Got to make the most of it while we have it, right?
[Of course, he and Fern are planning to break out of Deerington with everyone's memories intact but that's a secret project. This just further proves why it needs to be done. People shouldn't have to be torn away from their loved ones- not when this town brings them together in the first place.]
I clicked on the doll links even after reading they were potentially haunted and knew they would be terrifying and yet I did it anyway and now I have deep, deep regrets.

Being a dog for a day isn't the worst thing that could happen to us.

The news... hits him pretty hard. Wade's been around since Peter woke up in this place. He'd helped him, kept an eye out for the pair of gloomy teenagers living next door to him. Peter's grown to rely on him and enjoy talking with him, and it's... weird to think he's gone. Another person who's gone. It hurts a lot. ...But clearly, he's not the only one hurting from it, and Peter takes a long moment to decide how to approach the older man. Finally, he turns on his own video feed. ]
I'm uh... I'm really sorry to hear Wade's gone. He was my and Henry's next-door neighbour. ...And my friend. I really liked him.
[ Peter's... not good at expressing himself, his emotions, glancing down at his hands for a moment. ]
I hope he's okay, wherever he is. Do you... know anything about his home world?
[ Since Mr. Parker was clearly quite close with him, he might know. ]
video
He smiles softly, gaze sad — and maybe a little worn out.]
I know. Wade seemed to really like you; he's kind of a sap like that.
... He has people back home. I don't ask much about it, just like he didn't ask too much about things back in my home world... uh, but I know — I know he at least has people who can look out for him.
I think... he'll be okay.

He has less than a clue who this dude is, but the message about valuing people here hits a little closer to a nerve than he'd like. He's ready to toss his Fluid any direction that isn't near him when there's the offer of knives and he definitely needs at least one of those. Any weapons he can get his hands on to give him a fighting chance of surviving this place is going to grab his attention. ]
Hey. You got any of those knives left?

I might. Maybe. Possibly.
