Foreign Legion [First Contact/Uplift/Military Sci-Fi]

Though her helmet soaked up most of her sweat, droplets fell from her forehead and into her eyes, pearling at the tip of her nose. The climate was harsh, harsher than that one time she agreed to participate to a hot yoga session, and it was starting to wear her down. Physically, she felt the fatigue and would feel it tenfold later on, but right now her mind was sharp and alert.

The Iceland native adopted a smooth rhythm along with her fellow negveg shooters. Her larger mag capacity turned out to be a double-edged sword as she skipped a few reloading rounds and provided the other shooters with a longer resting period. When it was her turn to reload she practically devoured her water - and threw some on herself to rid her warm face of the unpleasant sting of salt.

“Bezrodny, make sure your boys and girls are as fresh as can be. I want you to form a firing line to my left.”

"Moving forward," Kristjana dutifully followed her team, as commanded, and set herself up on another oddly formed rock-like formation. It provided her with enough cover as she continued to pin down their attackers with a relentless assault. Her forearms ached from fatigue, her eyes burned from her own sweat and her throat was dry like a trout stuck on the pavement on a sunny day, yet none of it affected her aim or focus. Greater things were at stake which made her slight discomfort seem meager in comparison.

Kristjana rested her cheek against her weapon once more ad aimed for one of the Salvesh soldier's knees. She watched as Koolaid colored-blood poured out from the wound as his knee was effectively blasted out of his body - what remained of it anyway. "That's right, stay down ya gigantic arsehole!"

When their Warthog descended on the Salvesh like a rain of hellfire, Kristjana slid to cover behind a larger rock to take a moment's rest. As she gulped down some plain water, she wished she would have remembered to bring her pre-workout powder which had electrolytes and tasted like lime slush.

Explosions all around, blood both human and Salvesh tainting the purple planet crimson, dust from rocks raining on her from enemy's fire getting stuck to her sweat covered skin, Kristjana could honestly say she had never been happier.

The Collapse - Zombie Apocalypse [open]

My opening post is up :)

The Collapse - Zombie Apocalypse [open]

Ladder 25 Fire Station - Manhattan - 6 months ago

Sam had always been a fan of horror movies, especially the ones revolving around zombies or other post-apocalyptic settings. When she first saw one run after her, who had the face of a familiar co-worker, Sam thought he was pranking her. He knew she was a die-hard Resident Evil fan and she thought he was playing the part, you know.

As she held him at arm's length Sam had laughed and asked him where he had gotten that wake-up done. However, it was through his empty and glossy eyes that she noticed it wasn't just a prank - not to mention the way he had fought her relentlessly like he didn't feel the burn in his muscles added to her suspicions. Mere seconds later, undead flooded the station and her world was thrown into full panic. Not having the heart to kill her friend, Sam flipped him on the ground and ran for the nearest weapon : a fire axe.

The rest of the firefighters and her had attempted to use fire extinguishers like smoke grenades but it didn't seem to work as planned; the undead found them regardless. After numerous attempts at beheading, the few who survived sealed off the station and effectively locked themselves inside for four months until all their found and water supply had were exhausted.

They attempted to plan an evacuation of the station, but as Manhattan was a busy district a lot of undead had been attracted outside of their doors. Not many had survived their first venture outside after the outbreak, and Sam wasn't sure if anyone but her had actually made it out alive.

Convenience store - 228 Varric Street

Sam moved from place to place for the last two months, scavenging for daily necessities as well as useful items. It was lonely, and far more somber than what she thought it would be. If she came across other survivors she helped them, but they always ended up going off on their own or doing something reckless that got them killed, which made her wonder if the living had any common sense left at all.

Today, however, the sun was out and she decided it was the best time to go and scavenge another place to live as she had exhausted this corner's stores supply of twinkies and canned chili. Stealthily, she made her way through the deserted streets with her axe clasped in both hands. She moved from building to building not really knowing where was was going, unfamiliar with this neighborhood. She rounded the corner of a building when she spotted a tall and lanky woman emerging from an alley, and into the streets near Sam.

A little unsure, Sam weighed out her options. From afar, the woman didn't seem hostile and she didn't seem to be traveling with a group so that was a plus. What did she have to lose? In a world where it wasn't commonplace to come across other human beings it was a privilege to see smiling faces. Besides, Sam was tired to laugh at her own jokes.

So, taking a chance, Sam placed her thumb and index under her tongue and whistled once, ready to wave at the tall woman if she caught her attention.

If you're a sixteen-to-twenty-four-year-old female, you should be smoking hot.

I passed the 16-24 age-cap unfortunately :///////////////

Sorry about that, I didn't sleep very well for the last few days because night shift workers kept coming in my tent and waking me up every damn hour, but they're gone now and I should be able to get a post up tonight. Again, sorry for the delay.

If you're a sixteen-to-twenty-four-year-old male, you should be smoking cigarettes.

But what if romantic relationships is not even on the list of your priorities? What do you smoke then?

If you're a sixteen-to-twenty-four-year-old male, you should be smoking cigarettes.

Both are equally damaging to your lungs, but cigarettes smell like ass. The moment I know a guy smokes, I am completely disinterested in him (romantic wise).

I smoked quite a bit of weed and I haven't seen any difference behaviourally or memory wise. It might permanently affect some but you can't generalize such a claim with products that changes the chemicals in someone's brain when we don't have all the same chemical balance. Some are better after, some are worse and some have no changes at all; it's a case by case issue.

Nicotine, however, affects everyone the same way as it's an addictive substance that leads to a compulsive need for it daily. Smoking weed everyday is a habit, you can get addicted to the high but not to the substance itself. That's the biggest difference.

If you're a sixteen-to-twenty-four-year-old male, you should be smoking cigarettes.

I'm not too sure yellow teeth and fingers, bad breath and stinky clothes is what we women look for in a guy.

Seriously smoking is disgusting and unless she's a smoker, she'll probably hate the smell and be hella turned off (I know I am). So no, don't smoke cigarettes, smoke weed instead.

This has been a PSA *thumbs up*
