[Voice]

Alright, Luceti, you've impressed me a little. But what I really need to know is, where can I get a walkman? CD player? Record player? And more importantly, how are you living without one in every household? That just seems like water torture to me, y'know. A little rock music to keep you occupied, when you're tired or pissed off, does the trick for me.

[A beat, as he leans his nose on his knuckles. And then waves a finger thoughtfully at the screen.]

Actually. Name me your favorite singers or bands. I'm curious to know just how 'alternate' these worlds are.

[Doyle is side-strafing through the aisles of the shop, pulling object after object off them and tossing them into his basket, and it's not long before a big dumb grin slides across his face. He's enjoying the civilian clothes, and he's enjoying the clean air; now he just needs to bask in this great foundation that is a normal shop. He takes a pack of something and spins it in his hands, whistling]

Woooo, hot damn, ding-dongs.

[Grabs another]

Goldfish, can do.

[What's this? Soda po—p. That's the ticket. He turns on his foot and starts toward the aisle, already prying open the top to his drink.]

Now this place just needs a working McDonald's and I'm all set to have my training instructors flop in their graves.

[... Actually, the thought takes him back, and he's caught staring down the drinks section with an opened bottle of cola and a particularly blank expression. Damn. Damn. He gets that feeling—y'know, the one you get when you suddenly realize 'I'm alive right now, I'm experiencing things'? Only it's a little more meaningful when the circumstances are like they are.

It only took him a few days after the fact to realize he's completely drained mentally.

How about that shit.]

They show up now and then. Beyond that, missions are the best ways to get one, or play around with the Battle Dome. We've got some pianos and guitars around too.

As for your second question, Bon Jovi, Queen, Foreigner, Boston, Aerosmith, David Bowie.

There we go; damn good taste you've got there, ma'am.

[He claps his hands together, scheming.]

Maybe we can even throw a decent player in the battle dome. Nothing like working the scenes while you've got good music blaring in the background.

It's pretty easy to do. I've put together some nice playlists for my training before.

If you could point to the shiny buttons that work that function, you'll be a complete lifesaver. After all, us people with good tastes in music have to stick together.

I'd have to show you the inputs. Until then, we have a nightclub and soft rock is on the regular lineup. A few of us have tossed around putting together a rock band too.

A nightclub? Really? That's actually pretty great.

[Yet another thing that sort of went away with the viral apocalypse: decent night clubs. A cryin' shame.]

And how's this rock band coming along, anyway?

Got our guitarist and vocalists lined up, could do with another bassist just in case, and we still need a drummer.
