soulless_soldier[1. Barton is standing out on the curb near the mail box. She's wary when she gets a package with her name on it - there's a lot of things she doesn't want back. But there's a small box with something obviously tangible in it, and the things she's trying to avoid are most definitely intangible. Risking it, she opens it up to find her trust old military surplus trench coat (sort of like the one seen here.). She holds it up, looking over the worn and tattered coat fondly. To anyone who knows this sort of thing, it's from World War I. It could definitely use a wash and some repairs, and it's way too hot to be wearing it, but Barton doesn't care. She throws it on. It's too big for her, needing the sleeves rolled up, and it almost reaches her ankles. But now she feels a little more like herself again.
2. Later on, she'll be sans coat, working in the yard, with lots of tools and supplies. She manages to gather up enough wood and paint, and is building what is looking to be a dog house. There's a sketch near by with some measurements and needed supplies listed on it nearby. She works diligently, and seems to really know what she's doing. She seems to be enjoying herself too, in her usual understated way though.
3. Open phone call, usual drone filter:]
Hey. Um. So, the town made me admit to that whole communism thing, right? What was the point to that, anyway. [No mention of all the other info she blabbed about. Nope.]
Oh, right. I heard somethin' about a body at the pool, too. What's that about?

Date: 2011-07-22 12:15 am (UTC)hmm... as for the communism thing I think that was just one of the town's tricks.
no subject
Date: 2011-07-22 04:01 am (UTC)But no one believed it for a minute. Seems kinda like a pointless trick.

Date: 2011-07-22 04:41 am (UTC)And honestly, I don't really want to ask them. They're generally pretty awful to deal with.

Just let me know what part you want me to start on.
no subject
Date: 2011-07-22 09:04 pm (UTC)Those planks over there need to be cut, if you think you can do that. I already have 'em marked, just cut along the line.
[There's a sawhorse with the planks and saw on it. No power tools, we do things the old fashioned way with Barton.]

Date: 2011-07-23 02:54 am (UTC)Imagine if you spent your entire life in a world where you didn't have to nail, saw or construct something like this from scratch. I'm sure the common sense stuff to us would be hard.
I keep trying to think that way. How things must work in their worlds and how to deal with things here.

Date: 2011-07-25 03:43 am (UTC)Well. Kinda. Still learnin' a lot of this stuff.

Date: 2011-07-25 04:01 am (UTC)I like doing these things because at least they seem normal.

Date: 2011-07-29 02:28 pm (UTC)They gave me a job, kinda. It's volunteer so I don't get paid. Talk about BS.
no subject
Date: 2011-08-01 09:03 pm (UTC)Also, it could be worse, you could be stuck as a kid. I'm supposed to be 18, but all the drone records have me at 17... again.

no subject
Date: 2011-08-03 03:27 am (UTC)... Do you really think that's possible?

Date: 2011-08-03 10:28 pm (UTC)If we win, we'll be able to control that.

Date: 2011-08-04 12:34 am (UTC)But we have to have some goal and not everyone is going to be behind the idea of going back home.
