When We're Rollin Through the Wild Wild West

Who: Everyone! EVERYONE!
Broadcast: IF YOU WANNA
Action: Everywhere! EVERYWHERE!
When: Mid-September - Mid-October

[How's your ship doing, pardners? Is it still pretty damaged? Is it glitching out hardcore? Well, there is one place to land to take care of all that, and that's on a dusty old moon in front of a planet that no one wants to go to. On this moon, you'll find a civilization that looks a lot like one's stepped into a wild west movie, hardened cowpolk and mutant horses and all. Will you become a vigilante, hunting bounties and stopping gangs from doing their dirty work? Will you go exploring planetside, with a cowboy hat and a stalk of wheat in your mouth to complete the look? Good luck with that; there is no wheat. This town ain't big enough for all you flooters, but make it so! For the ratings!

In other words, it's a planet mingle! Get 'er done!]

ino: (Wowie ♥)

[ She grins ]

Sure!

Oh -- we could do a double date or something like that. Not that there's anywhere good for that on this planet ...
takeabow: (So sad they had to fade it)

[personal profile] takeabow 2015-10-03 01:18 am (UTC)(link)
Yeah, I think I'd like that.

What have some of the other places been like?
ino: (Thoughtful.)

[personal profile] ino 2015-10-03 01:29 am (UTC)(link)
Mm ... the first couple places we went to were kinda creepy and weird. There was this one place we stopped with three moons that were super crazy about not allowing certain things on the moons, like, the planet of workers banned beauty products ... the fancy philosophical moon banned alcohol and drugs ... stuff like that.

Umm, we also stopped at a casino that had a bunch of fancy places to go, and tattoo parlors and stuff.
takeabow: (Oh why can I not conquer love)

[personal profile] takeabow 2015-10-03 01:32 am (UTC)(link)
That sounds kind of exciting.
ino: (Smile.)

[personal profile] ino 2015-10-03 01:35 am (UTC)(link)
Yeah! I got a tattoo while we were there. [ She hikes up the side of her skirt a little bit -- not awkwardly far, but just enough so Katniss can see it peeking out on the side of her thigh. It looks like a branch of cherry blossoms, with some petals falling from the branch down the side of her leg ] It was sort of fun, actually ...
takeabow: (Show me the way)

[personal profile] takeabow 2015-10-03 01:36 am (UTC)(link)
That looks really nice.

And fun? Probably not the word I would think of.
ino: (Better vision.)

[personal profile] ino 2015-10-03 01:38 am (UTC)(link)
Me either, but it didn't hurt or anything. It just kinda tickled. I got one with a friend, so it was kinda like a bonding experience, I guess?
takeabow: (Oh why can I not conquer love)

[personal profile] takeabow 2015-10-03 01:41 am (UTC)(link)
It seems interesting, though. I don't know if I could think of something to do...
ino: (Listening.)

[personal profile] ino 2015-10-03 01:45 am (UTC)(link)
Yeah, that was the hardest part! We spent a really long time looking through pictures and stuff deciding what to get.

[ She'll smooth out her skirt, now ]

My best friend at home is named after the cherry blossom, though, and I thought the meaning behind it was good. [ She pushes her ponytail over her shoulder ] Since cherry blossoms bloom for such a short time before they die again, they tend to represent a sort of ... beauty in transience, you know? Enjoy what you have while you have it.
takeabow: (No matter where I sleep)

[personal profile] takeabow 2015-10-03 01:47 am (UTC)(link)
That makes sense...

[ takes a moment or two to think about something, and there's a softness to her when she speaks again ]

Maybe I'd do something for Rue.
ino: (Sup buddy.)

[personal profile] ino 2015-10-03 01:53 am (UTC)(link)
[ A little smile ]

That'd be really sweet, Nova.

There's actually a plant called Rue, though it's kind of poisonous and leaves blisters on your skin and stuff ... I don't know that it suits her all that well. Maybe something more like a daisy, or a white violet.

[ Not that ... she has to get a tattoo of a flower. Ino just thinks about flowers a lot ... ]
takeabow: (Oh why can I not conquer love)

[personal profile] takeabow 2015-10-03 01:54 am (UTC)(link)
Well. She did tell me to drop the tracker jackers on everyone...

[ she's a little entertained at the memory ]
ino: (I don't get it.)

[personal profile] ino 2015-10-03 01:55 am (UTC)(link)
Eh? "Tracker jacker" ... ? That sounds familiar, but ...
takeabow: (I'm ashamed that I'm barely human)

[personal profile] takeabow 2015-10-03 01:57 am (UTC)(link)
[ ok it's less charming when you have to explain it ]

I was treed by the Careers, but Rue pointed out the tracker jacker nest. They're awful— they buzz and sting but their sting is venomous. It kills swiftly, but if you don't get a quick death, you hallucinate feverishly.
ino: (Ehehehe .....)

[personal profile] ino 2015-10-03 03:54 pm (UTC)(link)
[ Yikes ... ]

Well, maybe I'm wrong, then. Though, even with something like that, she was still trying to help you, so ...
takeabow: (Let's be clear)

[personal profile] takeabow 2015-10-03 06:10 pm (UTC)(link)
Yeah. She was good like that.
