open mingle post;

[payback]

Who: Everyone on the waystation!
Broadcast: n/a
Action: open to everyone to tag into
When: October 11, 2014

[It sure is a lovely day actually pretty much indeterminate time period out here in the vast darkness of space, isn't it? I bet everyone's enjoying themselves, getting a chance to get off their dinky little ship and stretch their legs. Even on this shitty, empty little waystation.

Where are you, droot flooters? What are you up to? Stay out of trouble, now.]

[ooc: hi everyone! I thought I'd give this a try and see how the game liked it. What we have here is a mass mingle post. Rather than everyone making a bunch of different posts about landing on the station, everyone is invited to post a parent comment with their character out and about, doing something. Everyone else is invited to look at who's posted, tag them, post their own parent comments, thread jack, tag around and generally have a grand old time! It should hopefully be a nice low-pressure way to do some action tagging with each other.

Please tag in if you feel so inclined! Don't be shy to tag around!]

[Oh, good, crewmates. When she hears Michael calling, she makes a beeline for his voice without even really listening to his request... waves a bit when she spots him, smiles and then becomes serious again.]

Michael! What did you buy?

[parkinglotangel]

[Michael presents the carton of cigarettes as if were a war trophy, holding it up in the air for her to see. This is urgent, ok.]

[payback]

[... oops, her nose crinkles.]

I hope you won't smoke those inside the ship...

[parkinglotangel]

You'd rather I stepped outside?

[payback]

Maybe I would. Don't stink it up for everyone else.

[parkinglotangel]

Only a maybe?

[payback]

Do you want a stronger word? Okay, I'll say yes, step outside. [BRAT!!]

[parkinglotangel]

[Takes one to know one!]

You do know space is outside? [He gestures idly to the bubble overhead]

[Do you want him to suffocate and die, Rin? Gosh...]

[payback]

Aren't you special? Can't you handle it?

[WHAT GOOD IS BEING AN ANGEL IF YOU CAN'T DO THAT]

[parkinglotangel]

[He points to his chest] Physical body. Physical limitations. Oh, I'd probably hold up a few more minutes than you, but it wouldn't be a good time.

[payback]

If you already have physical limitations then why are you smoking, hm?

[parkinglotangel]

Because it's fun.

[payback]

Well, at least don't do it in the bedroom!

[parkinglotangel]

Office or cargo hold only. Scout's honor. [And he'll make the hand-sign too, smirking]

[payback]

[Augh, she squinches up her nose.]

Well... good!

[parkinglotangel]

Relax. I'd never do anything to hurt you.

[payback]

Stinking up the place is just annoying. [She makes a tiny face, but drops the subject since she got his promise. That's all she wants, a place that won't smell of smoke.]

You got cigarettes, then? Robin will be happy... [Since everything is in bulk...]

[parkinglotangel]

Maybe I'll share if he asks nicely. [And that's not a lie, but making Robin have to ask is half the fun]

What'd you buy?

[payback]

I want to plan that actually. If we all buy stuff in bulk, we can all share... what we want. I mean, I don't want your cigarettes.

[parkinglotangel]

Well, maybe next time. Put together a list or something...[He shrugged]

[payback]

[She makes a little face.]

Maybe you can trade with Robin. I think he's getting alcohol.

[parkinglotangel]

I knew I liked that kid.

[payback]

[She sticks her tongue out.

Then considers and puts her tongue back in.]

I guess it's good if he has someone to get it out of his system with...

[parkinglotangel]

[He smirks at her in return, obviously not bothered.]

I'll keep an eye on him. Don't you worry.

[payback]

Okay. Well... maybe next time, we can plan out what we buy a little more. [She's not really mad, or trying to chide, just thinking out loud.]
