The city of Gulch is a bustling place, a haven for criminals and rogues, yet a cherished home to its natives. You might be a native, well familiar with typical, day-to-day life here. Or you may be from off-world, here for some opportunity you think you can't get elsewhere.

Or, you may have been dragged here by the dimensional portal known as the Transponser™— an outsider, confused and weary.

What will you do while you are here?

1) New arrivals: Maybe you're a mercenary who just arrived from off world. Or maybe you're a visitor who came through the transporter. Either way, you're new, and it's time to explore.

2) Taking a job: Everyone who comes to Gulch needs to have a means of making income. Maybe you've taken a job as a mercenary. Maybe you become a lowly store clerk. Either way, you need to make contact with customers.

3) Avoiding the plague: The clouds are descending and it's time to find shelter! Make your way through the streets with the others who have found themselves vulnerable.

4) Touring the city: It means a long train ride but you want to see the sights, so you pay for a token and off you go!

5) Wildcard: Whatever you want to play out! Tag around and have fun!

At Washington staring like that, Epsilon hesitates. "Seeing as you started asking intrusive questions already, is something wrong?"

Wash tries to smile, but it comes out closer to a grimace, and he knows it. Fuck. He needs to pull himself together. He came here to take a brief break from the stresses of the job, not to get bitter about a past he can't change.

"Nah, nothing's wrong. Sometimes you just start thinking about things that you'd rather not, you know?"

"I get your point. And family brought it to mind."

Epsilon is trying not to push things too far though. Stranger and all.

Wash nods. "Yeah. I, uh, try to think about them as little as possible."

He shifts awkwardly. "Sorry. I shouldn't be putting this shit on you, we just met."

Epsilon shrugs. "Well, I already had mentioned my own problems having just met you. Alpha... Isn't yours to worry about."

Wash laughs a little. He still feels like he's put his foot in his mouth, but the awkwardness is subsiding a little. "I'm good at worrying about other people's problems. That's my fucking job."
