What's cooler, a space pirate or wizard?

Your answers--should they be correct--will help immensely. Thank you.

Also I'm really glad that you guys got out of Torturecorp. Offer's always on the table for music trades.

[There's a vague, jittery mess of video before the feed steadies in a sudden jolt--presumably being set down on some surface, from the look of it. Halfway in frame is a shadow cast across a wall: not particularly remarkable, until a more distinctive Magenta-shaped shadow shuffles into frame beside it, though the man himself remains off-camera.]

Made a friend, I think.

[The unknown shadow doesn't move or acknowledge that it's being acknowledged.]

Doesn't seem especially--especially unfriendly, really? Hasn't hurt me so far. I have a headache, but I always have a headache. He just let himself right in behind me. Does anyone know him? Or her, I reckon. They seem like they want to get real close and cozy with me. Maybe they're cold? I would be cold, too, if I were like this.

[A pause. Magenta appears to adjust his hat.]

I'm namin' 'em Mickey. Any objections to that?

[ He's woken up to the sight of an opened zipper over his head, framing his view of the ceiling with its teeth. It doesn't take a lot of investigation to figure out that he's in a bag, and the realization is more than enough to spur him into action-- Vasquez sits up abruptly, ignoring the stiffness in his joints as he gets moving. Clearly, he's done a whole lot of nothing for a while, and waking up somewhere new only adds to his confusion. Where exactly was he, anyway? This...didn't look like the inside of any building he'd been in, and he gets the feeling that he shouldn't be here for very long. It's not exactly welcoming, and he's pretty okay with the idea of getting the hell out of here before he figures out why. ]
[ Eventually, once he's left the building as per the not-so-subtle instructions plastered on his tablet screen, he gets on the network. He starts out by clearing his throat, and there's the faint rustling of fabric as he gives himself a quick once-over to make sure nothing's too drastically out of place. He doesn't feel any different yet, so maybe everything's okay? Being optimistic might also be a terrible idea. ]

Got two questions for you all. What day is it, and what's the situation here in hell? I'm a little-- out of the loop, if I'm gonna be honest.

[ Being dead will do that to you. The sound of snow crunching underfoot fills the pause Vasquez leaves; he's moving to...somewhere. He'll have to figure that one out later, although perhaps a little more soon-ish so he doesn't wind up dying by damn exposure again. He's going to make a point to avoid doing so in the future. ]

Well, it doesn't look like everything's burned to the ground from here, so I'm assuming we haven't seen a second apocalypse, or...whatever fucked this place up to begin with. Correct me if I'm wrong, though.

Date: Day 229
Summary: Event Shenanigans and a Reunion
Warnings: In comment subjects, please!

271: A small, enclosed bus stop that probably serviced the building inside the fence back when things weren't abandoned. The bus stop is enclosed completely in glass, making it possible to spend the night here, though the benches are a little uncomfortable to sleep on. Interestingly, the lights here still work, on and off--at night, the lights flicker on and off at random, which may also make it difficult to sleep. The vending machines here are smashed open, but food and drinks are still placed inside them. They do not restock when people are staying here, so make sure you don't run yourself out of food! "ALPHONSE ELRIC, DAY TWO HUNDRED AND TWENTY SEVEN, FOR ANY ASSISTANCE PLEASE CONTACT @LELRIC." is written on a wall.
