Flea Market for Trade rot_and_rebel July 12 2011, 10:50:56 UTC

[Been looking for that one item you need or piece of something or other that you couldn't find? You just might be able to find it here at the Flea Market! Barter is the name of the game here, not money, but you don't need to worry if you don't have any physical items to sell. Many citizens of New Ashford are happy with I.O.U.s for favors of physical labor or help in a time of need. Some may just ask your for a song or a dance in the Park!]

[OOC: You can simply post here in OOC and ask for an item your character has been needing and the mods will let you know if they can obtain it and what sort of 'price' in barter they can expect. You're also welcome to barter with other players here or have a booth of your own of things your character has collected outside the wall! Note that such things would typically be very trinket-like as most useful items outside the wall have already be scoured by thieves and cultists.]

Anyone have what I'm looking for? morethanafour July 12 2011, 11:30:37 UTC

[Elena Fisher is currently a journalist without a camera...and she's looking for one, persistently, while also possibly indebting herself with countless favors in order to furnish her terribly bare apartment.

Friendly and receptive to meeting new people she'll happily get to know anyone who seems the least bit interested in speaking with her.]

No, but can I reply anyway? notbluebozo July 14 2011, 21:41:56 UTC

[ Hank was missing many things from his collection of toys back home. In fact, he was missing just about everything and while he hadn't found out where he is staying quite yet, he had stumbled upon the flea market and decided that it couldn't hurt to look around.

As he looked at all of the new things on the table, scoping stuff out, he looked sideways at the person standing next to him. Was this a zombie? Was it really hard to tell? He was really fascinated by the idea and was kind of half hoping she was... ]

Re: No, but can I reply anyway? morethanafour July 15 2011, 01:41:13 UTC

[Elena glances over at Hank and smiles.]

Hi! Looking for something too, huh? Good luck...I think everything is broken.

[She drops a piece of a motherboard back on one of the tables, looking frustrated as she puts her hands on her hips.]

Re: No, but can I reply anyway? notbluebozo July 15 2011, 03:46:15 UTC

[ Not that he's particularly in tune to finding zombies but she seems about as human as they get. He's not going to show that he's a little disappointed so he'll smile anyway. ]

Broken? That shouldn't be too much of a problem.

[ He picks up the piece of motherboard that she just discarded and while it is more complicated than what he's used to, it doesn't seem like a complete loss. ]

...this probably just needs a few tightened screws.

morethanafour July 16 2011, 00:12:06 UTC

Oh..well...I don't actually need that. What I need is a camera.

[She smiles up at him.]

Know how to make one of those? Maybe?

[The hope in her eyes makes her features utterly charming.]

notbluebozo July 16 2011, 02:16:40 UTC

[ Hank starts out a bit flustered when she smiles up at him but his calm is immediately regained when she makes her request. ]

I've never tried before but I'm sure it couldn't be too much harder than making a neurotransmitter or large multipassenger jet.

morethanafour July 17 2011, 21:58:44 UTC

[Elena blinks.]

W-wow...that's...quite a resume.

Do you make those kind of things a lot?

notbluebozo July 17 2011, 22:03:21 UTC

[ Aw, so flattering to Hank to hear that! Though, the jet IS quite something in person if he does say so himself. ]

No, only one of each.

[ QUALITY OVER QUANTITY, Hank reminds himself. ]

It's a supersonic jet though. If you saw it in person, you'd see why I've only had time to design one.

[ He's only a little proud and it might show. ]

morethanafour July 17 2011, 23:55:44 UTC

Only one. You're right. That definitely makes it less impressive.

[She grins, her cheery form of sarcasm making it clear that she still thinks his work is amazing.]

I bet...those things aren't small.

notbluebozo July 18 2011, 06:05:34 UTC

[ He suddenly misses his lab with all of his inventions and creations. He'd even take the failures over the table in front of him.

He shrugs modestly. His instincts want to say they were no big deal but Hank feels otherwise and catches himself! ]

The transmitter was designed to amplify brainwaves for miles. It's definitely not small by any means!

...you don't need a neurotransmitter, right?

[ Cerebro II? Sure! He'll get started on it right now! ]

morethanafour July 20 2011, 20:28:03 UTC

A...what?

[Elena looks confused but also curious.]

Why would you want to...do that?

notbluebozo July 20 2011, 23:42:56 UTC

A...neurotransmitter.

[ He says it slowly, not because he's hesitant to tell her about it but more that he's not really sure how to explain it. ]

It amplifies brainwaves through a transmitter once the subject is hooked to the electrodes and...well, it has particular uses. We've mostly used it to locate the exact coordinates of...

[ Hank does a few light hand gestures as he has been throughout his explanation. ]

...of someone we might be looking for. It's pretty useful, I think.

morethanafour July 22 2011, 07:33:45 UTC

[She folds her arms. Find someone you're looking for, huh? She could definitely see how that could come in handy, considering the track record of the only person she knows here.]

Can you use it to find anyone?

I mean...there's a lot of people here who are looking for someone, especially among those of us who just got here. That would actually be really useful.

notbluebozo July 22 2011, 12:05:32 UTC

We've used it mostly for finding a...certain type of person but it could be modified to find anyone.

[ He stops his gestures and looks at her. ]

You mean if I built one here? To help people find others?

morethanafour July 22 2011, 20:54:19 UTC

Really?

[She nods - that really has a lot of promise.]

Well yeah - might be nice for people to know if their friends are here...

[She swallows.]

Or...if anyone wants to know if someone they know is a zombie now - can the...neuro-thing pick that up?
