Description

Angel introductory chapter for DCWastelands

It'd been a fair few months without newer recruits - sure, they'd encountered people in the wastes, but most had been hostiles. Knowing the flow of these things, the base heads had surmised that it was only a matter of time before they would find people - after all, when it rains it pours. And pour it did. Or, well, drizzle. Drizzle it did, but it beat the drought.

It'd been some time since Kit had been in Delta, but she and Anklet found the cleared agility area with relative ease...not that Sari could be found anywhere. Probably dealing with security measures for all these newer people entering the base. Neither had expected Longcoat or Rook to arrive immediately, and weren't surprised to find them missing - they'd show up in due time. As the standard base members of Delta filed in, along with those of other bases who felt it relevant to come, so too did the fresh meat; and they were quite visible among the crowd...some even familiar faces.
Upon setting up and working around the agility course, it had become clear that the main base head for Delta wouldn't be here just yet. "Looks like Sari's running late. So's Psi." Kit stated flatly, looking about the crowd before glancing back to Anklet. "May as well get started, who knows how long they'll be held up."
This was met with a smile and a quick nod by her friend "Sounds good! But look at all of these new faces! This is Excellent!"

A sour glance went his way "Yes...'Excellent'." Kitten Heels' tone well matched her expression, which then directed itself to the hand patting her shoulder. "Now Kit, don't be such a spoilsport." Anklet laughed, glancing over the crowd again before stepping forward, Kit in pursuit. 

"Hello everyone!" he started off brightly, gesturing out "First order of business today is a warm welcome! Thanks for coming on such short notice - though our colleagues are running a little late, we figured it would be best to host a meet and greet for the new members of the bases." Anklet smiled, taking a quick glance over the crowd. "My name is Ankle Sox - I am the resident Cherubim of the area and I run Base Lambda. I handle a large portion of security design for the area and melee training. Beside me is Kitten Heels." he gestured in her direction, to where she proceeded to pick up where he left, well aware it was an open invitation to introduce herself fully.
"Correct. As stated, I am Kitten Heels-" her tone was just as flat as her expression, it had an air of amicability, but there was a cold twinge to it that was poorly covered up. "I am the resident Ophanim and head of Base Theta. I make a point to manage and engineer the materials used for combat and defense, and I assist with combative and defensive melee training over in Lambda."
She took Anklet's silence as point to continue. "We are currently waiting on Archangel Sari and Powers Longcoat, who will be with us shortly. We felt this session would be necessary not only to help you socialize, but to familiarize yourselves with the base and those around you. A strong bond with others, we've found, is your best hope to handle the trials of this area with relative ease. Please enjoy yourselves."
