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!]

You could try pulling. I think. [she has probably gotten on a horse at least once in her lifetime, but...warp pads are honestly so much easier.

Ugh, animals.]

Thanks, Pearl!! [He shouts as he gives a good, but gentle, pull. Luckily, the horse still does start to slow down.]

Come on. [a few more kicks finally moves the animal into a grudging trot and (eventually), she's almost right next to Steven.

A chuckle.]
We might make you into a horseman yet.

[at least all that nonsense finally got them past the outskirts of town and into the wide open...desert.]

[As she catches up, he turns to face her and waves cheerily.]

Thanks, Pearl!

I always wanted to be a horseman! But I don't know if I'm ready to eat that much hay.

[He tries to stretch his cheeks to look more horselike in order to se his joke and then giggles, before he looks ahead at the desert.]

Well, I don't think -

[wait. That was a joke, wasn't it. That gets a laugh out of her - she's amused, not because she really gets it, but because he seems amused by it.] Oh, Steven.

[they've hit upon a dusty road of sorts! It doesn't look too traveled, judging from the the depth of the ruts. One way seems to meander off into the sands, while the other looks like it's heading towards a bit of greenery.

Pearl waits, content to let Steven lead them on this little adventure. What could possibly go wrong?]
