open;

Who| Joel, Ellie, anyone else!
What| Joel shows up and gets tossed into the ring. Let's see how he does!
Where| I can put him just about anywhere in the museum you need - he'll be scoping the place out.
When| Mid-Week 1
Warnings/Notes| Joel is a highly suspicious dude and may assume anyone he meets is hostile until proven otherwise. This means he might punch first and ask questions later! I'll update this if anything else comes up.

Finally, please specify if you would like to meet Joel before he finds Ellie or after - if before, he'll be on his own, really worried about his baby girl, and slightly more prone to violence. If AFTER, you will probably get Joel and Ellie (two for the price of one!), and a lower chance of Joel trying to throttle you immediately.



"Put your hands in the air!" "She's not breathin'."

He woke with a start, phantom pain in his head and surrounded by - military? They were clearly military, but not any military he was familiar with. When they grabbed him, all sense went out of his head - normally, Joel would go quietly, because struggling tended to get people shot, but all he could think, all he could remember, was Ellie, her body so still. She's not breathin'.

"Where is she?" he demanded, over and over, landing a few punches but never able to break free. The pajamas they made him wear, the explanation given, all barely registered as he had only one thought in his head - find Ellie now. "What the hell did you bastards do to her?" he demanded yet again, attempting to yank his arm free when they came at him with a needle. Still, nothing. His shouts and struggles were in vain, and the next thing he knew, he was... in a parking garage?

With no one around to confront, and the knowledge that he was here to kill, or be killed, Joel quickly shoved his feelings to one side, dropping low and seeking a stairwell to climb to higher ground - it would take him a bit to realize the only way up was via elevators that actually still worked. They were far too slow and noisy for Joel's taste, but it became obvious that they were his only option, and he needed to get to higher ground, if he was going to find anything. Especially Ellie.

Joel moved quickly, quietly, and with one singular purpose: find the girl, and get the hell out of here.

"They'd better have something. The Capitol have fucking kids, don't they? You can well bet they don't put THEM in the games so they have to entertain them somehow, right?"

It just better not be some comic about how the Capitol was always right or some shit like that.

"You saying I'm not entertaining enough?" Ellie teased, raising her arms in the universal gesture for 'bring it'.

"I'll have you know I'm super entertaining. I will pun you right out of this arena.

Mindy laughed. "That was fucking awful, Ellie. As in, super shitty."

And yet she felt better already. "You are plenty entertaining. In fact maybe we should figure out what to do after this weirdness is over."

Assuming she died, of course.
onlyimmune: (smug as shit)

wrap?

She stuck her tongue out at Joel but then laughed.

"Fine, guess I'd better come up with another win strategy," She teased.

"Come on, I'm hungry, let's find some grub."
