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!]

[Ah, hacking a human--difficult for sure...and that earns a slight laugh, from Megaman's end. But at the question he just shrugs a bit, staring at the path ahead of them absentmindedly as he thinks back to it.]

Yeah, I did make it out alright! I had to fight a lot of people...they really like battles down there, since apparently strength is what matters most to those sorts of guys. They had a Rank system and everything...Lan and I had to find something being held by the Navi ranked First and strongest in the entire Undernet, and you couldn't see him unless you were Ranked yourself. But we did find it, eventually! [He tilts his head a bit, more to himself than anything.] So I guess I'm still technically Ranked Second down there? But I don't really want to do anything else with it...

[He doesn't recognize all of the terminology, but he can understand the gist of it, at least. He's well-versed in competition rankings, at least. It's a big deal online, so of course it would be important in the darker side of the net.]

Ahaha... congratulations. You can get quite a reputation from that sort of thing.

Hah, yeah, I guess you can! Though it only seems like everyone wants to fight you even more, when that happens...or they think you're a threat, and want to get you out of the way...

[Like honestly, sure, the recognition is flattering sometimes...and he enjoys a good friendly NetBattle as much as the next guy--he really does! But the not-so-friendly ones, after awhile...he sighs.]

At least they don't seem to have anything like Ranking on this planet, though! And we're probably not going to be here for much longer, so we probably just need to be careful, mostly... [Looking ahead, Megaman perks up a bit, noticing a few familiar landmarks in the area they're entering.] Oh, I think we're getting pretty close to my ship! Shouldn't be too long now.
huaaaaagh: ([ggo] i think about all my trauma)

[Kirito follows his gaze, taking note of the area. Huh, so they are.]

Hey, what are you planning to do with all these parts, anyway? If you don't mind me asking.
