It's a rather quaint town when you get down to it. At least, that's what the Sheriff would argue. Warm and dry in the mornings and afternoons with a brisk coolness in the evenings. The perfect type of weather to just sit out on your rocking chair and observe the comings and goings.
... Of course, there's not much in the way of comings and goings when there aren't any actual people here to watch. Nevertheless, don't let that get you down! The town is your oyster and those roosters won't stop crowing until everyone's out of bed. Up and at 'em, rise and shine, it's time to make the day yours!
After all, there's nothing wrong with the town today and you might just want to savor it while it lasts.

It's possible. [He narrows his eyes at the cinema.] I didn't even know Papika broke in until after the fact and Damian and I found her...all of the buildings are rigged somehow. I wish we had a better idea how.
There aren't that many left. [Percy, no.] You really don't think it's necessary to check everything out so that we can know what resources are available to us? Nobody's died yet from opening the buildings.
[He draws his lips into a thin line.] Trust me, I already told her it was a really bad idea to go alone without telling the rest of us. But...we won't be able to stop everyone, will we? [He shakes his head.]
There has to be a better way to find out what's in there. Maybe there's something to help us move the bodies.
Yes sir. [He owes Barnham that much, at least.] I promise I'll be careful if I do decide to pursue something. There are things...we need to find. To help.
Mr. Barnham, I've been surviving for the last sixteen years. I'm doing pretty well considering my circumstances. [Just saying.] I promise you that I won't get myself killed. I'm not really that easy to kill? [A shrug.] But maybe it's not something to worry about now. I want to know how these bodies even found their way outside.
...As for that, surely it was so we would discover them. Is that not how this game functions? There does not need to be any logic if we see what we are meant to see.
[A smile? Barnham he's fine! He'll probably live to see seventeen, really!]
You'd think it'd be so straight-forward but sometimes I feel like Hal changes the rules on us based on whatever he feels like at the time. I just don't get why we needed to see them now after we already saw the bodies in the graves.

no subject
... With our numbers as they are, I must strongly insist no other buildings are opened.
[They can't?? Afford?? To lose anyone else?]
no subject
[Yet. Good job, Percy.]

[jfc.]
What, precisely, has this building offered to us?
[The cinema, that is...]
I fear many of them are like as not entirely useless to us. They are not worth the risk.
no subject
It hasn't offered us much, you're right. But there are some that are useful, like the post office. Don't you think that's important?
no subject
It is useless, yes. Is it worth the pain it caused to obtain it? ...That is harder to say for certain.
I am aware that Miss Papika could have died for the sake of this building here.
[and all it got them is a pile of bodies??]

... If you are going to open up one of these buildings, please simply inform me first.
[Since it seems he can't stop him from doing so.]

no subject
[It's a relief, at least. Maybe he'll be able to help keep Percy from getting himself killed, if nothing else.]
I understand. It is a tricky line to walk, I fear--the desire to assist and find more information, and the need to stay at your best so as to survive.

And I merely wish for you to continue to do so.
