Day 1 of The Genesis Project. These two were briefly introduced on the hovership over, but with an entire fleet of guards crammed in with them, they didn’t get much time to chat. The drop off point was on the edge of the Project, and their poorly made clothes didn’t make it long on the muddy, rocky trek inland. Upon making it to their shack, they looked a little worse for wear. This was the least of their concerns, though...

Prim: Uh, Lacey?

Lacey: There are bugs. Everywhere.

Prim: Oh, stop being such a baby. But seriously--

Lacey: There’s a million mosquitos. It’s not my fault you smell gross, and they don’t like you.

Prim: Lace--

Lacey: Don’t you “Lacey” me. I’m going to be bloodless by the end of the week and THEN what will you do--

Prim: LACEY. We have a problem bigger than your bug bites. There’s no door.

Lacey: What?!

[bottleblondesimmer]

Lacey: Ugh. Bating the hook is still gross, if you were wondering.

Prim: I’d offer to be prince charming and do it for you, but I’m a huge neat freak, too.

Prim and Lacey stood for a bit, listening to the bugs buzz and the birds chirp. The silence was peaceful, despite the circumstances. 

Lacey: Let me get the hang of fishing for a bit before I teach you anything.

Prim: Sounds good with me. I’m going to explore a bit and see what this place looks like.

Upon walking closer, Prim noticed a shift in the air. As he approached the panels, the hair on the back of his arms started to stand up and he felt small zaps at the tips of his toes whenever he would step. The buzzing coming off the panels was nearly undetectable to the human ear, but it kept the wildlife far away from the horrendously pitched noise. 

Prim: What the hell IS this all this stuff? Whatever it is, I’m staying clear of it. I bet it’s killing my fertility as we speak.

Prim: I’m gonna go check the other side.

Lacey: Wait! Don’t leave me! I’m coming with you!

Prim: Ok, whatever you want.

Lacey: Huh. That was anticlimactic. It was just hidden back here behind these shrubs.

Prim: I bet they did that on purpose. Wanted to sketch us out. 

Lacey: Hm, maybe. What do you think is behind the door?

Prim: We’ll, there’s only one way to find out...

Prim jogged around for a bit, deciding his best bet was to head as far as he could in one direction so he could get a wider scope of the land. About 40 minutes after he set out, he stumbled upon something....odd.

Prim: Huh? What IS that? I guess there’s only one way to find out.

Squaring his shoulders, Prim headed for the weird figures in the distance hoping for some answers.

With a burst of adrenaline, these two burst into the room. 

Prim: It’s just...a toilet.

Lacey: And a shower...if you could even call it that.

Prim: So I guess they decided to grant us some shred of humanity. No bathing in the pond for us.

Lacey: So, I guess this is our life. No floors and half-working plumbing.

Prim: For now, at least. They did say they’d give us a proper house in a few days time. I bet they need to make sure we’ll play nice, first. 

Lacey: Ugh, doesn’t it creep you out that they’re watching us?

Prim: Meh. I guess. I’m more concerned about my inability to catch enough fish to survive.

Lacey: I use to fish with my nanny when I was a kid all the time! I know a thing or two, even if baiting the hook is absolutely disgusting.

Prim: Sounds gross. Teach me a thing or two?

Lacey: Only if you let me have a shower first so I can have the hot water.

Prim: No fair, you smart woman. Fine. Deal.
