Mission: Fertile Ground

[somnioergosum]

Who: 2B, Daryl Dixon, Jason Todd, and Ronan Lynch
What: A team assembled by force is volunteered or voluntold to go collect soil samples and test them. They’re surrounded by predators. Things, predictably, do not go well.
When: April 17th
Where: Outside of the perimeter, in a fertile land surrounded by wild boar
Warnings: Violence against (and probably death of) animals

Ronan appreciated the chance to explore beyond the perimeter. He did not appreciate that he was doing it under supervision or the class they’d made him take. Soil samples? Jesus. But there was a chance of getting chased by carnivorous creatures of which no one had given him a clear description. That probably meant no one knew. Now that was exciting.

For once, Ronan was waiting at the perimeter early. He did his best not to look like he had been there long. Arms crossed over his shoulder, he examined the huge truck they’d loaned them for this mission.

He rapped on the metal. “Made to take damage,” he commented to himself.

If the others didn’t show up soon, he might just hop in and take off before no one noticed...

Daryl was at the perimeter fairly early himself, though he didn't see the point in getting there too early. Enough time to do a quick meet'n'greet of the people he'd been requested to help protect and then go and get on with things was all he was really looking to have. Learning faces and that sort of thing.

He came dressed as he normally did. Dark shirt with the sleeves cut off, dark jeans with patched holes in the knees, work boots, some knives both hidden and not on his waist, and crossbow across his back. He'd been told they didn't expect to encounter anything needing heavier ordinance, maybe some wild animals on the predator side of things that anyone with a hunting background should be able to handle. It was just soil samples after all.

He recognized the truck as the one he'd been told to look for and came around to the driver's side to see if there was anyone inside yet. Spotting the kid, he gave him a quick look over before moving over to lean against the side of the truck to wait for the rest of the team. Wasn't sure the kid was with them, but he figured there wasn't much other reason for him to be hanging around.

After a moment, he pulled out a smoke and lit up.
