Follow Your Passion: A Seamless Tumblr Journey
Ok I have this au??? I don't know if anyone else came up with this idea before me. But what ever. Ok so the idea is that person A is a florist and person B likes person A but is to shy to tell them there feelings. So person B instead of telling there feelings all they do is buy a bunch of flowers from them.
Blind AU Notes - https://vivi-senpaii.tumblr.com/post/163358241096/blind-david-au (still figuring out kinks on the Sacrafice-boom-juice thing ) - David’s hair is droopy ‘cus its really hard to style it up when you can’t see yourself in the mirror (once he came out looking like Elvis, Max won’t let him live it down)
Amnesia AU - https://vivi-senpaii.tumblr.com/post/164732776851/were-doin-this (DETAILS NOT MINE - Was inspired by a post from sunlightisforplants ! But what I came up with : - Max has a bad day, and so he runs away from camp. Gwen and David didn’t notice until late into the night, and by then a huge fuckin storm was brewing. David Volunteers to go out looking for him while Gwen takes care of the kids - Its morning, and Gwen starts to get worried, but then Max pops into the cafeteria acting like nothing happened. Gwen is pissed with him and tells him off, then asks him where David is. Max had revealed he had come back on his own. That he hadn’t seen David since before he ran off. - Full scale search for the red-head bby - Max and Gwen eventually find him at the bottom of a cliff (the same cliff Jasper fell from coughcough) and discover he’s a bit banged up but not dead. He’s unconscious for long enough to Gwen to call 911, but after she finishes David wakes up - Woop-di-doo amnesia - The doctors tell David that the best way to recover his memories is to stay where he is, a.k.a camp, where he has the most memories - (in this AU, David is an orphan/foster kid so he has no family that can take care of him, which is why he is staying in Camp with Gwen) - Davey and Max start off rough but bond over how sucky adults are when it comes to being nice to them (i.e family troubles) - Gwen has to take care of TWO little bastards now - Davey, not that he is an adult, also LOVES to drink. He often sneaks out of camp to go to the town bar (he also loves to drive) - He is a lightweight so he passes out very quickly / gets drunk very quickly - Max often hitches a ride in order to help Davey back to camp when he’s fucked up Stolen Identity AU - https://vivi-senpaii.tumblr.com/post/164697016136/do-you-know-how-easy-itd-be-to-dye-blonde-hair?is_related_post=1#notes Just as it sounds like! - Daniel recovers from his poisoning and decides to take vengeance on Camp Camp for thwarting him. - He kidnaps David ratther easily ‘cus our boy is a dummy dumb and locks him in a cellar in the words idk its remote no one finds it - Daniel’s uses hair dye and green contact lenses, as well as stealing David’s neck-shirt (because he is just a dick plain and simple) and, with great ass acting skills, goes to camp camp and act like nothing’s happening. - Very good actor, no one notices for a long time - except for Max, of course - Daniel starts off planning to poison all the kids and put the blame on David, but before he can Max confront’s him. Daniel is super pissed but deides to roll with it and uses David’s location/health as blackmail for the poor kid - Daniel changes his plan to just make everyone as miserable as possible, crushing everyone’s dreams with subtle comments and insults here and there (and of course they will mean a lot to these kids because it’s David saying all those mean things) - But eventually, Daniel finds himself...actually ...enjoying Camp camp...the way the kids look up to him, treat him like a friend, care and play and tease him. There are rough patches, but the affections between everyone is just too good to give up - So Daniel’s plan changes and he simply decides he’ll just be David from now one - Max is very much furious about it - David, all the while, is locked in the cellar, often times going without food and water because a) Counselor work is tiring and Daniel forgets and B) Daniel is just a dick - Also, in order to make sure David doesn’t escape on his own, Daniel gives him food and water laced with rat poison to keep him constantly sick
This is just some more information on the au before I release sketches or more story details. Feel free to send me questions if you have any!

How does the AVRP work?
The AVRP (Alternate Variant Reformation Program) is working to reform all the variants caught from the invincible war. They’re trying using to keep this a secret because they don’t think the public would react well.
The board cannot seem to agree on which approach they should use to reform them. The whole point is to try and get them to fight FOR Earth against Viltrum which most of them serve for in their dimensions- plus some board members think they should be punished for the damage they’ve done while others think that if they punish them it’ll cause a guarantee of betrayal from them in the future. So far, staff are trying a kinder approach- providing therapy, nice rooms inside the facility, human interaction, tv and books, etc,.
How does this AU differ from the canon?
Everything all the way up to the invincible war is canon. During the invincible war, there were more variants in this au. Every variant we’ve seen in the show during the fight is alive- the other variants that exist in this au are the ones killed. The AVRP did some major covering and reported half of the variants they caught as dead, and governments assumed whoever was behind this (angstrom levy) took the rest with him- like when he through the 8 remaining into the wasteland.
Damage has also been to the lesser extent because they worked on catching the stronger variants first. The war still lasted three days but that’s because there was more variants and it was hard to keep track of what was going on with conflicting orders being sent out.
Do they have a contingency plan?
Yes and no. It’s almost like a contingency theory. If a variant were to escape and kill up to 5 people, they would most likely incapicate them and lock them up, not giving them a second chance. If it gets up to 50 people, they will execute them. They don’t have it meticulously planned out on how to do so as they can’t agree on what method to capture, or execute.
Are they getting new names?
Yes. I wrote this down just in case nobody saw my polls but I did do polls for the variants and am picking names based on what won. Some variants I chose myself. These are just the names of a few of them, not all of them.
Some variants refused to be called anything but Mark, and some were okay with getting a new name. Due to some refusing, names were kind of forced onto them. Some are actual names, some are more so nicknames because they couldn’t pick.
Sinister mark- sinister (I feel like the name was given to him because the staff didn’t like his vibe)
Mohawk Mark- Mitch
Maskless Mark- Miller
Full Mask Mark- Miles
Retro Mark- Marcellus
Shiesty Mark- Mikey
(Yes if you’re confused by the polls, I flipped retro and sheisty’s winning names because I don’t think Marcellus fits Sheisty but Mikey does)
Omni-Mark- Min-Sung
Cap Mark/Cowl Mark- Reed
Will they interact with canon characters other than the variants?
Yes, eventually. Right now they won’t be but the first two to be introduced into the AU will be Debbie and Amber- to show the more human side of them if it’s still in there.
Staff’s favorite variants?
I feel like it’s obviously Miles (full mask) because his goal is the closest within reach, and they can give it to him. So, he mostly doesn’t get violent or retaliate. Second is Viltrum Mark (no name yet) because he keeps to himself and doesn’t retaliate against female staff or nursing staff.
And now a question for y’all. Should I do some x reader fics along with this au?
Thanks for listening to my insane ramblings about my au lol
“M” privileges are back, and there will be a reason explained in my au as to why he picked a more Korean name (other than him being half Korean)
I wanna see what wins when I take away the M privileges lol
Credit to @hennybgolden for the idea of the name Antony.
Author’s note: as someone who lost my mom, I had to write for full mask mark losing his mom. Different circumstances, but still has grief all the same
Warnings: Death, grief
(Technically a short story for the Invincible AVRP AU but can be read by itself)
Characters: Full Mask Mark Grayson, Debbie Grayson
💛🕊💫🌼☁️ 💛🕊💫🌼☁️ 💛🕊💫🌼☁️
“Mama!” His high pitched child voice squeaks out, running to her with open arms as if he forgot she was there with him. She smiles wider as he kneels down to his level, opening her arms wide. He giggles and crashes full force into her, knowing that she will always be there to catch him, to break his fall. He laughs as she hums “woah!” At his enthusiasm to ses her. She lifts him up into her arms, wrapping them around his tiny body to make sure he’s secure. Nothing will hurt him.
“Look mama!” He hands her the flower, and she gasps and takes it from his delicate hands.
“Woah, thank you, sweetie.” He beams at the praise.
“Do you know what flower this is?” He shakes his head in return.
“This is a buttercup, if you hold it under your chin and your chin is yellow it means you like butter” he gasps in return and lets his mother hold it under his chin.
“Oh, looks like someone likes butter” she teases and lightly tickles his tummy. He giggles in response before chuckling out, “now you try mama!”
She hums and holds it under her chin with a smile, the buttercup glowing a yellow hue under her chin, “is my chin yellow”
He gasps and nods, like this is some sort of witchcraft he’s never seen before.
“Let’s go see if your dad likes butter” Mark cheers as she lets him down, holding the buttercup as his tiny legs run to his dad.
—💛🕊💫🌼☁️
“Do you remember that, mom? After that I have always picked you a buttercup or two on Mother’s Day until I was able to buy my own flowers. Always of a yellow variety though, it has to be in theme,” he chuckles weakly before talking again, “Happy Mother’s Day, Mom”
Mark pressed a soft kiss to her temple, as tears dropped onto her pale skin. He pulls away, as he stares at her lifeless body. He can’t let go though, they haven’t had enough time together. They never got to go on a mother-son vacation, she will never see him have children, she will never get to even reach the age of 60. In his head, he hopes by some miracle she will gasp for air again, but he’s tried all he could. CPR didn’t even work but crushed her ribs.
He carried her over to the couch, hugging her close and he pulled a blanket over her. He doesn’t want her to get cold, she always hated the cold. Out during sunny days was what she loved. The yellow lilies, daffodils and buttercups were wilted on the floor, the water spilling, the vase shattered.
He runs a hand over her cheek, feeling her body slowly get cooler. He clenches his teeth, thinking of all the times she said I love you, and he wished he said them back. Or the times he would rush out of the house to play at a friend’s house and she looked disappointed that he didn’t stay to eat her cooking. Or when he would play with his dad more than her. What if she hates him for that? He’s sure hating himself right now for that.
He hums a tune to an old song they used to play in the car as he braids her hair. He knows she’s dead, even if he doesn’t want to accept it, but she deserves to look beautiful even after she lives.
—💛🕊💫🌼☁️
“Mama?”
Debbie turns, she hadn’t heard Mark use that name in a while. He looks in shock, on the verge of tears, and he wraps her in an almost crushing hug- literally.
“Mark?! What’s gotten into you? We had dinner together yesterday. Are you happy to see me?” She chuckles it off.
“Mom, oh god- I want you to know I love you, you mean the world to me. You raised me better than this” He rambles as his voice quivers, his eyes watering and ready to overflow.
“Mark? Seriously, what’s wrong?”
“I got you these”
He hands her a bouquet of lilies, daffodils and buttercups, with specks of dirt on them like he found them and pulled them from the dirt himself.
“Happy Mother’s Day, Mama…”
Y’all, please, could y’all help me pick out names for the Mark variants? In my AU, they get their own names- they can be regular names (like Miller for example) or they could be nicknames. I just don’t have the creativity to pick a perfect name for all of them 😭🫶🏽🙂↕️
This will be called the AVRP AU from now on, and here’s a few of the base line notes I wrote for the Au. This Au is meant to be shared, so if you want to create your own interpretation of it, I encourage it! Ideas and questions are also encouraged so I can expand the story of the AU.
I have some designs for the variants, some sketches, and some story building that I hope to share in the near future! Also, anyone have ideas for names for the variants? I don’t want to just call them Mohawk, Viltrum, Tracksuit, etc, because those aren’t real names yk?
Okay, I have something cooking….
Out of the Mark variants, which one do you think would like Amber the most? (If there’s not one in the poll, just comment which one you think)
This was supposed to be just a sketch but before I know it I’m shading 😭
Nico is @mossycobbld ‘s Oc
Estel is @dnmstarsi ‘s Oc
Andy is my Oc. Who I have somewhat lore for, but it isn’t fleshed out.
While I am working on the requests I got (yes I didn’t forget and I will be posting them soon as in the next few days) I had an idea. How would y’all like a creative exploration into the Invincible Variants being kept alive to try and be used as weapons against viltrumites? This would completely change how the comic goes but 🤷🏽♀️ idk food for thought or however the fuck the saying goes. Anyways au idea, yay or nay?

Your first day in your new world, your new normal, was the best day of your life since the day you were able to learn how to lockpick! Okay, to be honest, it may have been even better than the day you learned how to lockpick, but that day you were able to steal so much useful shit.
You have a place to yourself, a place that appeared to have belonged to Angstrom before, you assume so since he gave you the keys. You were able to shower without having to worry about getting poisoned or rationing clean water! You ACTUALLY smelt good! You didn’t think a good smell was ever possible but here you were. You were able to take your time to scrub the grime from your body, to massage your scalp and untangle your hair, and to wear different clothes. Yeah, you have to admit to yourself. This is the best day ever.
You had to wear the clothes that were abandoned in the closet, none of them felt right or comfortable but it was still fresh and new. You were so used to wearing the same clothes every day, and on a rare occasion getting new clothes to wear every day. But now? Now you get to wear a different outfit every day.
Going outside was a bit overwhelming at first, but still worth it. As the sun shone down on your face- it was much brighter than it was in your world. Well, I guess it would now be called your previous world, this was your new home. Looking around, you could hear strange high pitched noises. Turns out, they’re birds. Like crows and vultures but smaller and make a more pleasant sound.
Whenever someone approached you however, it was another story. They seemed friendly, but how likely was it that most of them were actually friendly? They probably were trying to kill you for your backpack. You would freeze and stare at them, blank and soulless until they left you alone. Even if you had a bad feeling about them, it was almost thrilling? Being able to see so many people, in new places and with new appearances. It almost made you giddy enough to let a small rumble of laughter come through your mouth. Not quite there yet.
It was getting late, the first day almost officially over when you finally figured out how to work the TV. You were killing this shit, maybe you could adjust to this new society after all…
“Invincible saved 20 civilians from a collapsing building-“
You perk up at the name.
That was the name of that guy!
You listen in closer as they explain his heroic actions in a positive light, showing what looked like him on the television. Was this what a recording was like? Were you being recorded? Could they hear you??
“I agree with you, Scott. His heroic acts were well thought out, and calculated in such expertise- you would think he has been doing this for over a decade”
The woman on the television laughs, not in a humorous way but as a way to fill the silence. It makes you sneer. Do these people not know of the crimes he’s committed? Of how awful of a person he is? The people he has slaughtered? Looking at his stupid fucking get up made your blood boil. What a manipulative piece of shit. He doesn’t even look trustworthy, he zips around in the sky like an oversized fly. Oh! No, more like an oversized wasp. Ready to sting.
You trust that Angstrom knows what he’s doing, that he will help bring Justice to everyone this Invincible guy has hurt. You commit his face to memory, trying to detail his jawline, lines, nose and hair to memory. This place was filled with people so you would have to burn the image of him to your brain to be able to try and pick him out from a crowd when he’s dressed like everyone else. Like a civilian.
You pull out your small notebook and write it down, as well as trying to sketch it out a bit, then write down what you heard on TV to report back to Angstrom. Your writing is sloppy at best and you completely butchered his portrait but who gives a fuck? He killed many innocents.
“Maybe I should kill you myself, Mr.Invincible…” you hum as you close your notebook. Tomorrow, tomorrow is a new day- and perhaps you will go out and look for him.

“Are you askin‘ for a job, kid?” The man’s gravelly voice asks you. You furrow your eyebrows at being called a kid. Could a kid lockpick a door within 5 seconds and precisely hit a target from 50 feet away?
“Yes. A job.”
“What are your qualifications?”
“Uhh…. I am good at tracking people”
….
“This is a Wendy’s”
You were having the shittiest of luck finding a job. No one was looking for a tracker? A looter? A temporary guard? How do people keep a stable life without these jobs??
“Hey, you’re standing-“
You quickly glare at the man talking to you, your eyes burning holes into his face. He seems only slightly taken aback.
“No seriously, get out of the road. You’re going to get hit!”
The fuck is he talking bout?
Suddenly the big machines that were unmoving (which you had heard or read somewhere once that they were called vehicles) started moving and making a loud noise at you. You were about to yell at the people inside the machines- vehicles- when the man pulled you out of the road.
“The hell is wrong with you?” He says in a more confused and light tone.
“I don’t need help” your voice comes out rougher than your appearance as you don’t talk much when you hardly have people to talk to. Angstrom was probably the longest you’ve ever talked to someone, other than yourself.
“Uh, excuse me? Do you need, like, mental help?”
You glare at him, your eyes wide and unmoving.
“That won’t work on me twice. Cmon, let’s get you to the hospital. Maybe you suffered a brain injury or possibly are high” he motions for you to follow but you smack his hand away.
“Okay, now let’s not-“
You push him up against the street pole, and he groans and looks like he wants to retaliate but he collects himself first.
“Don’t make me have to call backup and have the cops hall you off to be drug tested instead”
“Are you threatening me??” Is he seriously threatening to call a gang on you?? How dangerous is this gang anyways?? Cops is a dumb name for a gang anyways, maybe they’re small and insignificant.
“No, I’m not threatening you, I'm trying to get you help.”
“Help is not free.” You hiss.
“Look, I can’t control the healthcare system, don’t take it out on me!”
“Rex, what’s going on?”
A woman approaches, causing you to go rigid. Shit, when did you have time to motion for his gang?
“I was just helping- HEY!”
You run. You run down the street, diving through bodies, colliding with them if they don’t move out the way fast enough. It was enough to earn angry shouting at you but you just had to get out of there. No way you were going to die on your second day in this new world. You try to run in the direction of your home but… you can’t remember where it was. Shit.
Just your luck.

Chapter Warnings: death, descriptions of violence and death
Chapter Summary: You come from a universe that’s left as a wasteland, the human population constantly dwindling, as morals have gone and died, thrown aside to just survive. While you’re out to pickpocket the deceased, you find Angstrom Levy looking for Invincible- much to your confusion- as Invincible doesn’t exist here. Seeing the state of your universe, he offers you a more peaceful world- only if you do something for him in return. (set shortly before the invincible war)

. ݁₊ ⊹ . ݁˖ . ݁. ݁₊ ⊹ . ݁˖ . ݁. ݁₊ ⊹ . ݁˖ . ݁. ݁₊ ⊹ . ݁˖ . ݁
Invincible doesn’t exist in your universe. And if viltrumites do exist, they have seemed to have left Earth alone. Maybe they would assume nothing was alive on it anymore. They didn’t even need to conquer Earth when humans had destroyed it themselves…
You walk down the broken pavement, what used to be a road years and years ago. That was before you were even born though. This is all you’ve ever known. Sure, you’ve heard stories about what clear skies looked like, what fruit tastes like, what clear lakes and oceans looked like, but you’ll never see it for yourself. Is it possible to miss something that you have never had? If so, that’s something you would feel more than you would like to admit.
Keeping down your path, you stop as you spot something at the corner of your eye. You lower your head in a fast jerking motion to see if it was a threat. No. Just a dead body. Kneeling down, you can see that the deceased woman isn’t decomposing yet. Meaning, the people who did this could be near. You look over her features, wondering what she was like.
She had a kind face, her clothing made it seem like she was guarded- but not in the way many are. She was probably one of those empaths, one that would try and teach children what morality is- even when there is slim to none left. She was probably in her 30s, and she was shot a few times in the chest. Usually you would search dead bodies for anything of use- bandages, medicine, food, clean water, weapons- but she didn’t have a bag on her. You didn’t specifically feel like checking her clothes as she didn’t have many pockets or padding on her. You hope her original soul is resting easy as you begin the sharp inhale, causing a small vacuum for her duplicated soul. Her soul was a soft peach color and it came out as a small wisp, grouping up into a ball. You quickly grab it in your hand before her duplicated soul would zip away or try to possess you. It lets out a small squeak, sounding like a mouse. The beauty of your powers.
𓉘 “047241, do you know why your veins look like that? Why your hands emit a soft yellow glow?”
You shake your head in response, curious as to what this could mean.
“You, 047241, were chosen to become one of the divine. A weapon. Your veins are filled with divinity, you have been chosen for greatness.”𓉝
So much for greatness. Being blessed to become divine just means they fill your veins with radiation and liquid medication as a baby so you can become a weapon for the high court. Turning you into a humanoid mutant. However, you missed the mark. Out of 34 subjects, you placed 11th place, and they picked the top 10. You were left to fend for yourself after that.
Your divine power is complicated. You are quite literally a vacuum for souls and energy. You can vacuum up to 5 hours worth of energy out of a living creature, and can vacuum a duplicated soul out of a deceased human. Their souls usually have some sort of helpful ability to you: like living soul protection, picking up objects, dazing others, sensing others, healing, etc,. However, as soon as they are brought out of their body, they panic and try to run away or they get angry and try to possess you. And their possessions can go from 30 minutes to 12 hours if you’re not careful. They can’t talk, they're like a small animal that needs to be trained. You look at the peach colored soul as it tries to wiggle free from your grip.
“Sorry, no hard feelings.” You pull out a bottle from your bag and squeeze the soul into it as it bangs on the bottle from side to side to try and get out. You would deal with them later. Right now, you should get out of here, in case whoever killed this woman is still nearby. After adjusting your heavy backpack onto your back again, you see a figure. This figure has their back turned to you, clearly not worried about any possibility of danger behind them. You carefully scan them over, as you grab for your weapon.
From behind, it looks like it could be a mutant, its skin is puffed up and wrinkly from the back, but when they turn around, they look normal from the front. It’s a man wearing something that doesn’t look protective or plausible for the wastelands. He seems like an anomaly almost, he feels too out of place. He looks around slightly before spotting you. You wait to see what he does, but he gives a polite smile- though you feel as though it might not be fully genuine. You tsk to yourself, looking him over before raising your voice so he can hear you.
“Are you armed?
He casually holds up his hands to show that he has nothing in them, that he’s unarmed. You can’t tell if he has something hiding in his clothes but you keep your weapon close as you approach.
“You part of a group?”
“Me? Oh, no. I’m just looking for someone.”
You hum, “Oh? Bounty hunter?”
“Not exactly.”
You furrow your eyebrows at his vague answers. The way he talks makes it obvious that he is not from the deep wastelands. Maybe he’s part of the high court or some other group of people that are protected but then again, he’s out here alone. Plus, he has a scar and looks like he may be mutated. He would be kicked out in a second if he was part of a higher group. So maybe he’s been ex-communicated?
“Who you lookin’ for?”
“I’m looking for Invincible.”
You pause, giving him an odd look.
“Who?”
“So you don’t know of him?”
“Nah. Doesn’t ring a bell. Is he supposed to be a big name, cause I know a lot of big names but that ain’t one of em.”
He chuckles to himself, “I would say you are lucky to not know him, but it seems your world is already facing its own challenges.”
Own World?
“Wait, what do you mean?”
“I am Angstrom Levy, I can travel dimensions.”
Before you can even ask questions, he opens up a portal with ease, emanating a bright green hue. You stare in awe, never thinking you would see something like this before. You quickly tear your eyes away and look back at Angstrom.
“And you came to this- uh, here- for this Invincible person? Why? Did he get lost in a dimension?” You doubt that theory a little as he does not seem panicked. Instead, his lip ever so slightly twitches downwards.
“Invincible is a murderer, he killed my son- he ruined the lives of millions across many of dimensions.”
You stare dumbfounded. Well, that would explain why he was looking for him. You have always heard that if you have a bond with blood relatives, you will feel a new intense feeling of adoration for them, wanting them to never be hurt. Having someone take away his son would probably trigger intense rage. You try to grasp at the concept of that intense of an emotion, but you can’t feel it.
“That must be why you’re here. You want to get revenge?”
He stares for a moment, before humming in agreement. He takes in your appearance. You do look odd, but not out of place for the wastelands. You wear a large color with a short chain on it, under it your number written: 047241. Your eyes are heavy, with prominent bags under them as you never feel relaxed and barely sleep. A big backpack stuffed to the brim with supplies you need, causing it to weigh over 100 pounds. Your shirt is a dirty forest green, paired with baggy camo pants. Underneath both your shirt and pants, you have padding underneath to act as a vest to prevent easy targets. Then, the oddest part, you have long, leather gloves on- reaching up to your elbow. He stares at your gloves, and you know what he is wondering. He’s wondering what you are hiding, because it’s even odd to wear this long of gloves in the wasteland.
“What is your name?”
“047241.”
He just stares at you, before huffing out a short laugh. Is your name one that causes humor?
“Are you happy here?”
You stay silent.
“Do you have a home here?”
You stay silent.
“Do you have loved ones here?”
Again, you stay silent.
“What if I can offer you a dimension that will give you the chance to experience all of that?”
You perk up, trying not to show off your excitement too much. However, it’s hard not to when you think of the idea of clean bodies of water, clean air, animals, fruit, sunshine, alive plants and trees, and the possibility of actually meeting and keeping in contact with new people. You have to remind yourself to not show your excitement because you don’t know what this Angstrom could be asking of you.
“What do you need in return?” Your voice comes out rough but you know that he knows he already got your attention.
“Simple, all I need in return is for you to give me updates whenever you hear about Invincible. I need to keep track of him for my… plans.”
“Done.” You say without a moment of hesitation. You can do that no problem, and you get to potentially experience living in a world similar to yours before it became the dreaded wasteland it is today.
“One last thing before we go. Once you get there, about a week and a half from now there may be a catastrophe, I would recommend going into hiding.”
“Can you see into the future too?”
“Something like that.”
“One more question.”
“And what is it?”
