[He sounds nervous, as usual, but it's not as nervous as he's been in the past. Like when the angels were around, for instance. He's just... a little worried.]

So hey, the new highway that... apparently just popped up. People have been checking it out, right? I wanted to go too but Klaus... uh. Wouldn't let me.

Anyway I guess I'm just asking what people found out. Klaus isn't back yet, and I was just getting really curious, that's all.

Also has anyone figured out the noise yet? I mean, I know it's coming from the Dairy, but I was wondering if anybody else was able to get in and find out what it was.

Uh... that's it, I think. Everybody doing okay?

[ someone sounds tired ] The exits aren't real. Or, at least, if they are, we can't use them.

[worstvikingever]

Okay you're going to have to explain to me what that means, because... well. We don't have highways where I come from.

[electrowhipit]

Exits... well, they're side roads that usually lead from the main highway to other towns. Sideswipe tried to drive off on one, but we ended up in a ditch.

I found out that the girl at the Diner along the highway doesn't seem like all the drones here in town. Also I heard something earlier about bears, but I never encountered one.

[worstvikingever]

What do you mean "doesn't seem like?" How's she different?

[He ignores the part about bears because. Well. His village had to deal with dragons for centuries. Bears are no big deal.]

[infinitemars.livejournal.com]

Well, when I introduced myself, she didn't act like it was strange. Most the drones will act like you're a bit crazy because they think you've been here forever, right? She just introduced herself back.

[brb-inventing.livejournal.com]

Hey, Hiccup! You wanna go check it out with me? I'm totally taking the car to see it for myself.

[Warning. She has never driven before.]

[worstvikingever]

Uh... I dunno, Klaus told me to stay put in a very specific tone of voice.

[It never stopped him when his real dad said it, but he wasn't scared of his dad. Klaus still kind of freaked him out. A lot.

Also what the angels did to him is never very far from his mind.]

[backseat-dragon.livejournal.com]

I missed going because I had to work...

[worstvikingever]

That's too bad. Apparently it just goes in one big circle and doesn't lead anywhere.

[backseat-dragon.livejournal.com]

A circle? Like around town?

[hontobakabaka.livejournal.com]

"I went with a few people from class, but it seemed fairly routine and uninteresting. There was a diner and a gas station and it looped back onto itself. It basically just gave us a slightly dangerous out of town area to explore for a bit."

[worstvikingever]

Huh. Nothing... super crazy? No... uh... [He tries to figure out fifties oddities.] Giant robots? Aliens?

...angels?

[godisachild.livejournal.com]

Right now it just circles around. Big surprise.

Probably means they're just saving how they're going to screw us with it until later.

[Phone]

[worstvikingever]

Yeah, no kidding. Still, I can't help wondering what the point of a road that doesn't go anywhere is.

[simplykind.livejournal.com]

Oh...I thought maybe the noise was normal around here.

[worstvikingever]

No, it only started a few days ago. I guess you're new around here, then.

[no-indoor-voice.livejournal.com]

[bluntly]

Probably torturing drones or something like that. Or people here before us.

[worstvikingever]

[He's stunned into silence for a moment.]

Really? Would they... do that?

[eldest-hatter.livejournal.com]

There isn't much to see, I'm afraid.

[worstvikingever]

Yeah, someone mentioned a diner, and that none of the exits work, but not much else. But apparently there's bears in the woods. Psychic bears.

[istheatmosphere.livejournal.com]

After I got dumped in that Westport place, I'm not too keen on going exploring, I'm afraid.

So far nothing exceptionally bad has happened. It could just be a matter of time, though.

[worstvikingever]

I dunno, from what I'm hearing from other people and just by what's going on in general, it just feels like we're building up to something, you know? To be fair, I haven't even been here that long, but still.

[ariesapocalypse.livejournal.com]

It appears as though most inhabitants have gone to explore it.

[worstvikingever]

Yeah, seems that way. Sounds like there isn't much to explore, from what I'm hearing.
