I have been curious lately, about a few things. I pulled out my PDA - [And here, he pulls it out and wags it a little.] - to check a few things. The map is still useless, it is stuck on Pripyat back home and cannot find me. The journal works though, and so does the Geiger Counter.

And I know this because a lot of you Cybertronians are radioactive. Especially the two that are very pointy, the ah. Red and silver ones? I think I could maybe follow your trails if I tried.

[Strelok shrugs then, leaning back and smiling slightly.] I thought it was interesting, anyway. If any humans starts getting nauseous or dizzy you should see about getting some anti-rads, maybe. I am not sure how it would affect the non-humans, I am afraid.

I have. The Zone, it is not known for being kind or having plentiful food. The traders, they brought in food when they could, but sometimes we had to scavenge off of each other.

[Strelok shrugs a little, though. That life was his choice and he'd grown to mostly enjoy it. Being low on food all the time and all.]

But such is life in the Zone. We decided to live like that, the ones of us that were there.

... Well, choosing it makes it easier, I suppose. You have access to more food here, or is it about similar?

[She tilts her helm, curious.]

Why would you choose it, though, if you didn't have to live there?

There is a lot more food here. The Junk Pile, it is like a buffet of canned goods. I have not seen so much food in a long time.

As for why I would choose that life... I wished to know everything the Zone had to offer. Others went there to find treasures and make money, or for fame or adventure. Sometimes to escape from their past.

Ah. [Elita smiles briefly and nods.] Don't forget there's fresh things too. I believe humans need that?

Curious by nature, then? And I'd wonder why people would forego security or safety for the chance of a high-risk reward, but I already know the answer to that.

[Another dry grin.]

If you believe the risk is worth the reward, even possible death won't stop some.
