video; un: Hob
[The video shows Hob, sitting at home on a balcony of his apartment. He smiles, but there's a little uncertainty to his attempt at pleasantness. Something is bothering him.]
Hello, all. Uh, I don't mean to alarm everyone, but...
[That's usually how people cause alarm. Good work, Hob.]
I noticed something strange during my recent walks. I have a path I routinely take as I explore the city, walking different areas each day in case there's something out of the ordinary. Well, I typically stop in the same shops for some water or food, or to carry something home. When I went into one of the stores I frequent, I noticed the things I helped myself to previously haven't been replaced. It always was, before.
[It's hard to mask his concern.]
As more people typically arrive about once a month, if resources get scarcer... shouldn't we think of something?
[A quick smile.]
Or maybe it's all a fluke! A temporary disruption in services. That's all.
[That could be it, right? Hob doesn't have to eat to live, but starving is not a lot of fun.]

Good. That planning may be necessary. I don't think I've seen you before.

[ made it here just in time for the mall, lucky him. ]
If I read right, the city used to be much smaller and keeps expanding every couple months. Yeah?
no subject
Yeah. There's something new every month, so far. Shops and entire areas.

[ does that actually clear anything up... maybe yes, maybe no. ]
This ain't great, but at least nobody's runnin' around trying to kill each other yet.

[ But Hob supposes not all worlds and universes are peaceful. People seem to be brought here for everywhere. ]
Let's hope things remain peaceful.
