Feb. 25th, 2011 01:26 pmThere are things that have to be done around the Citadel despite there being a war on. One of them, today, involved following Knight-Captain Colvin on a long walk in the dark, through the Metro tunnels that offer the only reliable access to Arlington.
There are really only so many ways to conduct a funeral. Especially when all you can bring with you is ashes.
That was most of today. The rest of today involved readying for an escort mission along with two Paladins, starting at Rivet City. The amount of water being shipped from the purifier to Megaton is going to need a lot of strong backs, and Rivet City is the easiest place to hire them. And to justify having four or five more added to the herd without anyone wondering where they came from.
All of which is a long way of saying that Ellen clanks into the Bar in her power armor today. "Bar?" she says. "Can I leave a note for the stable managers? When I go home tonight I'm going to be taking four of the Brahmin with me, and I don't want anyone to think they've been stolen."
Once the arrangements've been made, she gets herself and Dogmeat some lunch. They're not going to have the luxury of stopping once they get the water Brahmins under way back home. For now, she could be bothered.
