"Captain Caz MacCallan. UC Highlanders." His eyes shifted between the special ops and the scientists aboard the ship. "This isn't a rescue vessel." The scientist -not bothering to answer the question- turned in surprise at the name, attitude shifting to one of a very pleased man. "Well, well... what a surprise... what a surprise. Not only do I have eyewitnesses to the experiment, but I also have my property returned to me intact. It explains why you survived." He gestured for one of his understudies. "Ah, quickly if you can give me the exact details of what transpired once we released the specimens." "Excuse me?" Property? What was he on about? Specimens?

The signal must have worked, because it wasn't long before footsteps were heard outside and the door opened up, bright lights shining in blindingly. "Two survivors." The trooper radioed, stepping inside though not lowering his gun once. They were UC, but the uniform was not one that was familiar to him. Green with orange tiger stripes. Special forces of some type. Special forces... so there was a situation here out of the usual. A silence followed as he received orders over comms. "Understood. You're both coming with us. Board the ship. Move. Do it quick."

"What else is there for me to do? Either I fix the ship, or I lie down, and I die here." He much preferred to keep on fighting until his very last breath than to give up and let himself become dessert for those things out there, because they were having a very hearty dinner right about now. "Caz. UC Highlanders at your service." Tucking his other hand beneath his arm once more he offered the uninjured one out towards her. He would wait awhile for those creatures to wander off with full bellies before he would try to get those parts that he needed. There were plenty of burned out mechs around that he could try to get the parts he needed.

Seeing as she was finished, he took his turn getting cleaned up and changed, returning to the main hab of the ship once done. "I believe that I can repair the ship." If need be then they could leave this planet and report to their respective colonies once they managed to get out of this place. However, there was a thud outside the ship. One of those creatures squealing. Stirring up a right storm. Opening up the blinds he spotted two of them. Both fighting over the bodies of the soldiers, ripping them apart and trying to devour as quickly as possible. Thankfully the windows were tinted, and they could not see inside, but he had never seen these before. What were they? Why were they here now?

WWI - The Apocalypse (Closed Starter)
Sign up for King and Country. For Honor and Glory. Do your part. It started that way. Eager enthusiasm to serve one's country. But it didn't stay that way. The moment one had to put a seventeen-inch blade through another man and watch the light fading from his eyes it changed something. It changed when the bombs started falling and disintegrated a man right before your very eyes. It changed when you listened to young boys crying out for their mothers as they died tangled up in the muddy barbed wire in no man's land where nobody could reach them to render aid. No. There was no honor and there was no glory here. Only pointless waste of lives. Defeatists talk they would call it, but he knew the truth. The only ones to call it defeatist were rich old men with something to gain. Thunder rumbled in the distance, and he sighed heavily to himself, knowing a cold rain would only bring with it more discomfort and suffering. Adjusting he tried to make himself as comfortable as he could within the small dugout in the side wall of the trench that served for a bed. No mattress and a helmet made for a poor pillow, but it was what they had. A few soldiers on patrol made their way back and forth through the trenches. The mood had become very somber. No longer was it the jovial banter of stating they would be home before Christmas. There was no end in sight.
"Being clean would make you feel better but do as you please." He continued to fumble around one handed with the panel, trying his best to repair it one handed. This was not an easy task. Not with one hand, but the other was too badly damaged to use. He doubted it would be much use anyways now that it was missing a few fingers. His bleeding had at least stopped. It was one positive. Sighing he realized that if they were going to get this ship up and running, they were going to new some new Microcells. He could get those from the mechs, but... that meant going outside with those things. Sooner or later, he would have no choice. For now, he'd focus on basic repairs.

Making his way over to a panel he managed to pry the bent thing open and flip a few breakers that turned on the lights. Better than sitting in the dark. "That should have the water running for a shower." Or at least he hoped that there was still water, and the thing hadn't sprung a leak, but the lights were green, so it looked good. Now for that live wire... he flipped a few breakers and switched to find the right one to get that shut off. "I expect a clean uniform or two in the bunks."

"Dinnae ken and I'm not exactly keen to find out." He knew what a siren sounded like and that unfortunately wasn't one. But maybe they were overreacting? Maybe it was something harmless. Sounded bigger than it was. It was better to be cautious though he supposed, considering they hadn't the faintest clue what was happening or where everyone else had gone. It had to take a lot for the guns to go silent. "No." It wasn't too far, just up ahead and thankfully they managed to arrive without incident. Didn't look like anyone had survived the crash either... they wouldn't have company inside. For better or for worse.

"You're the one that suggested everyone ran." He quickly tugged some bandages from the fallen pack of another soldier and quickly wrapped his hand. "But we have bigger problems." Whatever that was it was close and there was nobody else to respond to it. That suggested to him that there wasn't anybody left at all. So, what had killed them all? Some new weapon? Had something come along to scavenge bodies? Somehow, he had a feeling that they didn't want to be out here amongst the dead when it came scavenging. Didn't want to smell like the dead either.

He wearily glanced at the bodies in the mud and suspected that wasn't quite true. Plenty of weapons to pick and choose from. Could have even smashed his brains in with a shovel if she so wanted. He would have been helpless to stop it. "Where is everyone?" He didn't understand why it was so quiet on the field and why neither side would have fired on them. It was not blind luck. Had one side or the other finally won? Had they finally called it? He couldn't imagine why else there would be silence. Something wasn't right here. He'd just not yet figured it out.

The whistle blew out it's shrill order before an officer shouted from somewhere along the line. "Up and over lads!"
Which sound was worse he could not say. Both held equal dread for a man and yet still they all did their duty and clambered to the top. Up and over to see what they could do in the never-ending tug-of-war of taking and retaking the same trenches. As always, the UC Highlanders were the first over the top. The first into the fray. Brothers and sisters fell all around him. To his left and to his right, but still they pressed onwards into the fire with a bravery few could ever hope to possess. "Mech!" Someone cried out and he just caught the sight of the machine coming up over the crest of the hill before it let loose a hellstorm of missiles in their direction. - He didn't remember much of what happened after that. Only that he was sent arse over end when the missiles hit and darkness. Coming to now he tried his best to move but found himself entangled in a mess of barbed wire. Oh, bloody hell. This wasn't good. He'd seen a few poor bastards go out this way -entangled and trapped with no hope of rescue- and he had no desire to be one of them. He gave another tug of his arm only to feel the barbed wire rip into his skin through his uniform. Oh, no. He didn't think he was getting out of this one so easily. The battle at least seemed to be over. Both Freestar and UC bodies alike littered the fields of no man's land and too many bodies of his fellow highlanders for his liking but numbered just the same Freestar soldiers. He had a little time to access his situation. Taking a look over himself he felt fortunate to have his limbs still intact, but as his gaze traveled down his left arm, he noticed he was missing a couple fingers, steady stream of blood flowing still. It only made him try to escape once more, but the wire just cut deeper into him, tangled worse around him. He wasn't getting out of this on his own. Lowering his head in defeat he realized how woozy he felt all of a sudden, his hair wet with muddy water and blood falling into his eyes like messy black yarn made him feel like a twisted sort of scarecrow, all trussed up in barbed wire.

OOC: would love to find a Solas to rp post-Inquisition and Veilguard ending with! 🫶🏻
i think all quiet on the western front and the lord of the rings are in direct conversation with each other, as in theyre the retelling of the same war with one saying here's what happened, we all died, and it did not matter at all and another going hush little boy, of course we won, of course your friends came back
OUTLANDER SENTENCE STARTERS
No, I said I won’t have you dying for nothing.
I won’t be. I’ll be dying with you.
Look, you told me that you could never get close to your mother, that she lived in another world. Well, maybe she’s trying to show you that world.
It’s not important if I believe it. She believes it. I’m just saying, we need to keep an open mind.
Only two people know what the truth really is, and one of them is dead. Too bad it wasn’t you.
Can I ask you something? How do you do it? Finally say goodbye to that one person you loved most in all the world?
Truth is, I’ve never been very good at saying goodbye.
But that’s the hell of it, isn’t it? Whether you want to say goodbye or not, they’re gone and you have to go on living without them. Because that’s what they would want.
Well then maybe we’ll all get to watch her slam her head into a five ton slab of granite.
May he have mercy on us all.
What kind of god creates a world where monsters thrive and beauty and purity is rewarded with poverty and death?
The same kind of god who also offers an opportunity for redemption.
I’ve been dying for years. It’s a wearisome process. I welcome its conclusion.
It’s like you read my mind.
I kept my word. I lay my vengeance at your feet.
I must say, this is a damned inconvenient time to be conciliatory.
Why did you pretend not to recognize me? I was afraid you would just blurt out my real name.
I know what you did. You championed me and exiled me both at the same time.
What am I to do with such a bloodthirsty barbarian?
Is your thirst for slaughter not quenched yet?
Surely there’s another woman you could have kiss you goodbye?
Fortune drops out of the sky and onto our doorstep. Convenient, is it not?
Why should we waste time with all this Shiite?
It’s been horrible. He forced me to mend his socks and to fetch his meals.
I think I know a wee bit more about this than you do.
So, will I be allowed to join you at dinner tonight?
They say the definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over and expecting a different result.
We may have to rethink our decision not to lie to one another.
And you, witch who sucks the cock of the devil. I’ll see you in hell.
You’re not what I ordered. But, you’ll do.
You should have trusted me with that knowledge from the beginning.
Every now and then it is OK for you to lie to me, you know, just to put my mind at ease.
Aye. I’ll remember that for the next time.
I’ve been thinking. Remember you said I owe you a life because you saved mine? Well, I saved yours as well at least as often. Seems to me we’re even.
Ashamed. Like I’m a different person now, and I’ll never be the same.
So you had to start yourself up with a whore before you could stand to be with me?
This is wonderful news. Why did you wait until now to tell me?
The way I see it, we’re doing a bad thing for a good reason.
Isn’t that what all bad people say?
Well, I am an unusual lady. At least I used to be.
Told you that dress would bring us grief.
How can you save a man that doesn’t want saving?
I lie here feeling I will die without your touch, but when we do touch, I want to vomit with shame.
If you take away the one last thing that makes sense to me, then I will die with you, right here now.
You think I cannot control the darkness I inhabit? One way or another, I will get a response from you.
Love forces a person to choose. You do things you never imagined you could do before.
Go get the shovel.
You might want to remember who has the pistol.
It looks like I’m going to a fucking barbecue.
I want you ____. I want you so much I can scarcely breathe. Will you have me?
You are my home now, ____.
It’s often something like this. But, no, this is unusual. It’s different.
Take off your shirt. I want to look at you.
I’ll never forget when I came out of the church and saw you for the first time, It was as if I stepped outside on a cloudy day and suddenly the sun came out.
Doesn’t it bother you that I’m not a virgin?
You control your nerves. Your nerves do not control you.
It doesn’t matter where you come from. You’re here.
Sometimes I wonder what I did to make the devil punish me like this.
Nothing ever ends poetically.
It ends and we turn it into poetry.
All that blood was never once beautiful.
It was always just red.
