i am the ink of the decleration of independence , the blood of our fallen brothers and sisters , the heart of the wild west &. the tenacity of the new york spirit. i am all that is good.

you hear that @spczom​​  —  the wail of the sirens in the distance, the black void that creeps and pushes relentlessly against the thick walls of the bunkers set deep within nas oceana ?  finally a little let up huh ?  a chance to recoup and re centre – a breath of air that’s not exactly fresh, but it’s safe , right ? or at least pretending to be.

             SHE RUBS THE WATER AGAINST HER LIPS ; rough pad of her index finger dipping into the canteen , flesh dragged against the inside of her gums and around her mouth slowly and carefully so as not to waste a drop. avi wishes she could take a deeper gulp of it , let it really quench her thirst , swallow it down hard and fast - but the tank that filters the water from the ocean has been out of use for two days now. the water supply from the reservoir being what it is ( (un)dead bodies being what they are … ) it’s not safe for anyone. so she sits, dabbing at what’s left of her own allocation in an effort to stave off her thirst - hoping beyond hope that she can take a sixty second shower sometime in the not so distant future whilst her eyes trail over the latest intel that’s been tossed across her desk. 

it’s been a hot minute since they had started to explore further north ; virginia had been an interesting choice ( close enough ) to the capitol which according to the higher ups on the base had to be the epicenter of the virus because of course it had to be , how could it not be ? the president used to live there ---- did he still live there ? was there still a president ? so many questions were still left unanswered and it had been over a year since the start of the hell on earth. how in the world they had managed to still not figure out anything about this thing was beyond him but ; he figured that’s why they had ventured north. it had to have been a weird sight , the eighty second airborne ( or what was left of it ) with marines from camp lejeune ( he wasn’t sure which remanent of a division ) pulling up in mass to a naval air base , the navy wasn’t in good shape ------ which wasn’t surprising , they were after all , the navy. they had the finest air-force in the world ( after , of course , the former army air corps ). he wasn't sure what he had expected but he certainly expected better than what they found , there was no way the jets were useable without their maintainers and the navy wasn't risking sending sailors on an infested flightline.

which was where they came in ; the eighty-second took hold of the flightline , clearing any enemies present and helping secure buildings ( mostly because , if they helped the navy , maybe they could get some close air support if they ended up in a sticky situation ). but all good things came to an end , the army had figured it out first ( tip of the spear and all that ) , and decided for some reason the navy wasn't worth telling until they were about to pull out. so here nelson stood , as his staff was trying to talk to some " important " navy personnel , and nelson was standing outside of the door trying to figure out the best way to say anything other than good luck sailors. ❝ there's a small problem , we can't stay to help. we can't hold both virginia and north carolina , homebase is insisting we pull back , team z leaves in the morning. ❞
