Desert Air

I am Dana, an Intern for Night Vale Community Radio. I am stuck in between time?... Space?..., but I think my phone still works... sometimes. (RP and Q&A blog)

"Show me love"

Our muses build a fort

"No, Dana! Thats not how you do it!" Steve laughed, throwing a cushion at her. How they came to be building a fort in Steve’s living room, he’d never know, but he couldn’t say he minded. Dana was far nicer away from the station and it was good to see her. They’d hauled out all the cushions, pillows, and blankets they could find in his small apartment and had begun turning his living room into the fort of all forts.

  He shook his head. “Nope. All the other Carlsberg namesakes died off or married out. I’m the only one left after dad.”

[nightvalesdana]

She moved more into the fort and looked at all the work they had done up to that point. “So you have to be very careful during street sweeper day since you’re the last Carlsberg, other than your parents.” Walking in a circle Dana looked up at the top of the pillow fort walls. “How are we going to get a roof into this? Do we us blankets?”

Knocking in the door of Cecil’s apartment Dana stood there a moment. In her hands she was caring all the recordings of interviews from the past year that Cecil had asked her to get from the Studios basement. After two days of being lost down there and stalked by something...

[nightvalesdana]

Dana looked up at him from where she sat on the couch and smiled. She had been pulling out the tapes from the box and lining them up in order on the coffee table. “Its fine you had no idea when I was going to get out of that basement.” Thinking about the different ways to approach the question of what was happening in the shower. Till Cecil had walked out of the bathroom she was going to work around the question, but as soon as he came out she could see that he was already re-building the walls around himself. “Cecil. Why where you crying in the shower?”

  "Carlsberg is a founding family. My dad loves Night Vale. He moved out so I wouldn’t have to grow up with the Carlsberg crutch.” He bumped into her with a smile. “Chill, Dana. It’s okay.”

[nightvalesdana]

Dana let her embarrassment slip away and smiled back. “Okay. I’ll chill. “She responded well bumping back in him. “If your father’s from the founding family do you have other family members around here?”

wish upon a shooting star it wont come true, it’s just too far but if you fly up to the moon you will die, there’s no air up there

Things that Cecil finds weird.

1. Oranges don’t grow in deserts.

2. Dana is still texting after 8 months without a phone charger.

3. How does Dana pay her phone bill.

  "Hmm? Oh, yeah. I moved here with them. They live not too far from here. Mom insists I go home for dinner every Sunday." He smiled. "Sorry if I made you think I didn’t like them or talk to them."

[nightvalesdana]

Dana blushed a little at getting that wrong. She was supposed to be a radio station intern which meant being able to pick stuff like that up. “Sorry I thought so since you said your father tried to scare you with this place that he must not of liked it very much here.”

Knocking in the door of Cecil’s apartment Dana stood there a moment. In her hands she was caring all the recordings of interviews from the past year that Cecil had asked her to get from the Studios basement. After two days of being lost down there and stalked by something in the shadows,...

Looking away from the bath when he stood up Dana nodded “All right. I’ll be in your living room when you are finished.” She moved back and closed the door to give him privacy. Before looking away from him she had defiantly seen him sitting in the bath crying. Walking back over to the table close to the front door she grabbed the tapes and transferred them to the coffee table before sitting on the couch which she swore had been on the other wall a minute ago. Thinking that the faceless old lady was getting faster at moving furniture she began to try and think of a way to approach asking Cecil what was driving him to cry alone in the shower. Knowing that even though he was a very friendly person there were times when he closed people out, which she had the feeling this was going to be one of those times, it was going to be hard to get him to talk about whatever was causing this distress.

Reblog this if it's ok for my muse to send texts to your muse, even if they've never interacted. Some really great friendships start with the wrong numbers after all..

  "Colder, wetter, less terrifying and eventful. Everything there was safe. Less… Explosive. I easily assimilated  since my dad’s… He’s from here. I grew up hearing about Night Vale."

[nightvalesdana]

“Every place has parts that are not safe. Was night vale what you expected after all of your fathers stories?”

[youngstevecarlsberg]

Steve chuckled to himself, eyes focused on the hands. “Honestly? It was everything I imagined it to be. He tried so hard to scare me, but I loved it. I still do.”

[nightvalesdana]

Moving over to where Steve was standing Dana touched his arm gently. “I’m glade you didn’t listen to him. Everyone at the station really likes you and a lot of others around town.” Dana had never been very good at the comforting thing. When ever Cecil got upset all she had to do was give him hot chocolate and mention Carlos “Also if you had never moved here we would have never gotten to build my first fort.” She took a couple of steps back from Steve to give him more room not knowing how comfortable he was with being touched “Do you still talk to your parents?”

Hello I’m hungry

[nightvalesdana]

*sends cactus* That’s all I have got as food in this place.

[intern-gershwin-palmer]

((Mun greatly appreciates the cactus food, thank you Dana. I’m not sharing with Cecil though he can find his own))

[nightvalesdana]

your welcome. That it fine I heard that Cecil is really into Italian food right now any ways.

[intern-gershwin-palmer]

((His exact words to me were “I’m

really into pasta these days”))

[nightvalesdana]

hehe He needs to be careful to not over indulge in pasta.

John, speaking to a pack of local reporters, and backed by a group of farmers wearing black double-breasted suits and red silk ties, said this is the dawning of a new citrus economy in Night Vale. John said, “Citrus is our future. Citrus holds the key to prosperity. Citrus holds the key to health. One particular orange here literally holds the key to a one-sided door in the middle of the desert. If you find that orange,” John said, “I will pay you dearly for it.” “Or rather,” John corrected himself, “you will pay dearly for it.” Then John said, “Either way, whatever. Would love to have that orange, my friend. Would love to have that orange. Yessir!” he punctuated. “Or ma’am. Or neither. I mean, whoever. Sure would love to have that orange,” he chuckled while sweating and adjusting his wooden hat.
