T-That radio... j-just now... Ak, Dievs. Lūdzu. I-I... Ka slikta meitene ... Kad tas ... Kāpēc? W-Why? I don't understand, i-is this... I-Is this going to happen to u-us here, t-too?

[A small pause, and Latvia speaks the following barely above a whisper.]

D-Does this place have f-fallout shelters?

[Little Luke appears right behind you!]

What was that sound at the end? Right after those sirens?

Action bawlingforsoup October 21 2010, 03:42:43 UTC

A-A bomb... I-I think. Nē, i-it had to have been a bomb. T-Those were air raid sirens.

[Does he look pale or is it just the 1950s lighting?]

Action bluecapboy October 21 2010, 03:46:46 UTC

[That's what he was afraid of...]

Is it going to happen here too?

Action bawlingforsoup October 21 2010, 03:51:05 UTC

I-I can't say. I-I don't know.

Do not know.

Perhaps would be good idea to find one.

bawlingforsoup October 21 2010, 03:48:22 UTC

M-Miss Ukraine... I-I...

['I'm scared', he wants to say, but he can't. He has to be strong in these situations.]

motheringnation October 21 2010, 03:51:01 UTC

Do not worry.

[And slipping from fear to mother.]

Will be alright.

Are you safe in your house?

bawlingforsoup October 21 2010, 03:55:02 UTC

...J-Ja. I-It's not so bad anymore, I-I... I-I want it to stay this way. I-I don't want to lose them to some stupid bomb.

R-Right. ...W-What about you?

bawlingforsoup October 21 2010, 03:58:05 UTC

Mr. Saeba... I think that's what he wanted to build, but he's... gone now.

...

Maybe we should get back to work on those.

bawlingforsoup October 21 2010, 04:01:02 UTC

T-That sounds like a good idea...

perfektsymmetry October 21 2010, 11:46:24 UTC

I still have some of the scrap metal I collected in our garage. I uh... I can try to start on my own basement.

[Not that he has any idea how.]

bawlingforsoup October 21 2010, 16:27:05 UTC

M-Make sure there's a couple inches surrounding you. I-I don't know how advanced A-American shelters were compared t-to some other countries l-like mine, b-but... I-Is better to be safe than sorry.

[What is that horrifying presence behind you, shaky not!son?

oh wait it's just your father figure.]

Shit. You that concerned?

There's a shovel in the garage.

bawlingforsoup October 21 2010, 04:22:22 UTC

G-Good.

[WHAT IS THIS SUDDEN GROWING A PAIR? Hi, let's go for a little walk. No, no, it's okay, I'll lead you, come on mamapapa, let's go to the garage.]

Y-You can help, then.

legberjack October 21 2010, 04:30:33 UTC

[ Following, what is this - with a scoff, the brash, hard-headed comments continue, attempting to mask any insecurity. ]

What, you're actually serious? You actually believe this shit?

bawlingforsoup October 21 2010, 04:39:06 UTC

[They fall like water off a duck's back. He's doing his best to tune it out, but he just can't help but actually snap back.]

I have every reason to, Mister Giriko. A war ended not too long ago back home--Three years ago i-if you want details. I'm not going to take any chances. I-It's either 'nut up' or 'shut up'. Which one are you picking?

[Rakes, hoes, lawnmower--There we go! Here not!papa, a shovel from the failure son!]
