It’s the apocalypse. There’s no TV, radio, or internet broadcasting, most electronics like computers and tape players are kaput, books, board games, and other paper goods are falling apart if they haven’t already (and they all dropped their glasses anyway), booze is basically limited to questionable bathtub gin (and that’s assuming you can even find a bathtub), and sex is in short supply. What the hell else are they gonna do for fun if not party? Trundle hoops?
To be honest, Sergio, you are making this too hard on yourself. There’s no reason to assume hardened survivalists wouldn’t want to go to a city for their own purposes nor is there any reason to assume they wouldn’t want to help you if it doesn’t involve to much danger to them. At any rate, the first step would be to simply ask them. That doesn’t require much thought or anxiety. At least not yet.
All the more reason to start with places already in ruins. Look at it as getting something out of the way early, avoiding lawsuits, or if you are really ambitious, a challenge
It is said that in the kingdom of the blind, the one-eyed man has a very hard row to hoe.
And in a apocalyptic world gone mad, a sane genius like Sergio is going to have a lot of trouble just dealing with the irrationality needed to survive.
U.N.I.T.Y. and Tip are just the first (and funniest) symptoms.
I can’t decide if that’s Tip’s influence or if they’re just party kind of people…

A lot of Sergio’s bandwidth is being taken up with ‘There’s no men and they chose HIM?”
Touché! When you put it like that, I rather see the point.
Doing only survival type stuff would get very boring, very quickly.
See? She helped!

At least today Unity isn’t rubbing her new body part in Sergio’s face. (Figuratively.)
What a strange world. In my experience, the ruins come AFTER the party.

“Dude, what a night. We partied these ruins back into a city!”
what do you drink because that sounds worth trying @_@
Civic duty.
OK, does it end up with this world’s Unity fighting our Unity? We have to see that happen.
It probably will. Why they should run across each other in such a large country who knows, but they probably will.
Unity reminds me of that dreadful 1970s Shake ‘n Bake ad where the grandmother makes fried chicken and the granddaughter pipes up “And I helped!”
Unity trying to be helpful usually has worrying consequences. Remember the Notaries Public?

Not exactly the ‘I helped’, but it’s the one I remember the most because it could send me running out of the room…
‘We don’t have time to fool around’ indeed.
