You've been here longer. How much are we allowed to take from the general supplies and can we pretend I care about that before I start taking everything I want?

[nonscriptum]

i think the limit is how much you can carry

are you gonna turn our house into a doomsday prepper shelter?

[takeanyadvantage]

Am I going to turn our house into a secured location, yes. First trip is for the knives.

But they also have liquor and playing cards. I suppose without money strip poker is all we have.

[seekingmyfortune]

i don’t know, you sure you wanna go around naked in a place like this?

beer, whiskey, scotch, and if by some miracle you come across any cigarettes i could use a few dozen

[nonscriptum]

we don't need THAT many knives

we'll put in a request with rastus for cigarettes next month, sam. you'll have to mooch off some of our war vets until then.

[takeanyadvantage]

Oh Sam, I forgot you haven't played cards with me yet. Strip poker it is.

More knives for me then, message received, Nate. No nicotine that I can see. They do have condoms, interestingly enough, one can never be too careful even in the afterlife.

[seekingmyfortune]

jesus i better get a month's worth from this rastus guy.

nathan, i think those were fighting words. you and me, sister. living room. after school.

well, better safe than sorry, right? might as well grab some of those too

[nonscriptum]

as long as you're not an asshole he'll generally give you what you want

[ As far as Nate knows, anyway. He's not touching the condoms conversation with a fifty-foot pole. ]

poker with you guys? not unless there's hazard pay

[takeanyadvantage]

I wonder where exactly he's getting these items from, if they're crossing over to wherever we are. They have to keep this stocked, yeah? I doubt that I'll take it all. So who's he talking to on the other side to get it here?

Aw, Nate, giving up already. I'm disappointed in you. Chances are one of these days you'll beat me.

[seekingmyfortune]

you saying you think he's got some connection to the living world out there? guess it could make sense. supplies came with us on that ferry, and some of that stuff is pretty specific. not to mention all those rats had to come from somewhere too, right? unless they all died at once. boy i would hate to have seen those mouse traps.

oh no no no. you can't play poker with just two people all right? you gotta start with more.
