Maeye: Hey.
2a.
Arayanna: You're awake!
Maeye: Shhh. Not so loud.
2b.
Arayanna: How are you feeling?
Maeye: Like I have the world's worst hangover.
3a.
Arayanna: Yea, you're going to feel like that for a while. Can I get you anything?
Maeye: Water?
Arayanna: Of course.
3b.
Maeye: How long have I been asleep.
Arayanna: Around 20 hours.
Maeye: Wow.
4a.
Maeye: So this is the safe place you told me about?
Arayanna: Safe house, yes.
4b.
Arayanna: The people of Earth have lived in fear of their wars and their environmental abuses for many years.
Arayanna: The political and military leaders,
along with the very wealthy, built themselves these shelters in case of world war or catastrophe.
Arayanna: We are currently several hundred feet below the Earth's surface in a fully stocked and equipped home.
5a.
Arayanna: After the hoard invaded, the humans that survived gathered in remote strongholds . Those of us in
resistance used these shelters as training and staging areas.
Arayanna: The battle front had shifted recently and this place is now too far away to be practical, so no one uses it these days.
Arayanna: We will be safe and, most likely, left alone here until it is time for us to go.
5b.
Maeye: A two month vacation with just me and you? Definitely worth the world's worst hangover.
6a.
Maeye: Help me up. I think I can walk.
Arayanna: Ok. Go slow.
Arayanna: There is so much for you to absorb and learn. Try not to get overwhelmed.
6b.
Maeye: Ooo! New pajamas. These are comfy.
Arayanna: I am certain you are going to like the clothing here.
Maeye: OK. Lot's to learn. Can we start with where I go pee?
Arayanna: Sure. It's just through that door behind you.
7a.
Arayanna: This is a light switch. It turns the lights on and off.
Maeye: Wait! What?
Arayanna: Oh yea. Electricity. Hmm. How do I explain electricity...
7b.
Maeye: To hell with electersy. How do we make that work?
Arayanna: It would be my great pleasure to show you.
8a.
Maeye: I think I'm going to like this Earth place.
Arayanna: You ain't seen nothing yet...
I think you meant “horde”, not “hoard”.
Sonofa! At this point, I should start pretending that I am putting the typos in on purpose as easter-eggs.
Show her the horrible things later.
The hoard invaded? What treasures were in it ?=P
Negging aside, woohoo, more Prentil ^_^ And yay for steamy warms.
Yup. Typos. Ugh. I should name the comic “The Great Aisle of Prentil”.
Shouldn’t that be the ‘Grate Aisle’ ? 😉
LOL! It’s where you get the cheese graters in the Dollar General.
It looks like an underground private penthouse.
I only hope she found the toilet before bathing. 🙂
It is. This particular safehouse was built by some random billionaire. I hate billionaires. So, they died horribly in the invasion and thus donated their underground penthouse to the Resistance. And to my comic.
Definitely pee first then tub. 😀
Just like the bunkers the ‘elite’ are busy building while scoffing loudly at the peasants who dare to make theor own preparations…
Wait until she sees what that handheld shower head does 😉
Right!! 😀
I have always sort of assumed that if rich folks cause the kind of disaster and then flee into their bunkers to avoid the consequences of their actions, the survivors still above ground will spend the time and effort to pile many enormous rocks on top of the entrances.
Year after year, higher and higher.
That’s easier than digging them out 🙂
Totally agree. If you can’t get in, then I would drill a hole in the roof and plant my outhouse on it.
“When planning your defence remember: if you make it too hard for them to get in then you won’t be able to get out”
Wait until Aray introduces Maeye to Dirt cuisine (just remember not to call it that 😛 )
Dirt cuisine?
Earth, aka Dirt 🙂
LOL. Got it. 😀
