driftfleet | Nightal 1 1369 dr- Feast of the Moon

Who: Syeira and Open!!
Broadcast: Fleetwide
Action: The Red Fish, if you want. Or she can go other places. I'm flexible.
When: From the night of 11/30 through all day 12/1.

[Syeira hasn't broadcast anything since her first day. That was a long time ago. She almost doesn't remember how, so it takes her a moment of fussing around with her device before realizes it's actually working. She's in the cargo area of the Red Fish, sitting on the floor against a wall. Her knees are pulled up, and the device is resting on them so she doesn't have to hold it. She's wearing her Nymph cloak, so she looks a little shinier, and seems a bit more compelling at the moment. She's not wearing it to command attention, just feels the need to be wrapped up in something familiar.]

So I realized tonight that I've been with the Fleet for exactly seven months. I'm still so unused to this thing...

[What an awkward way to start.

She sighs, leans her head back and just...talks.]

Today is a holy day in Faerun. The Feast of the Moon. It's the start of winter. On this day, people do a lot of things. One of them is recounting stories of heroic slayings.

[Yes, slayings. Not deeds. Slayings. Murders.

She fidgets with a strand of her hair.]

Since I've been here, I've hardly killed anything. It's surreal.

I hate this day. I don't want to hear stories of death and murders. Don't we all have enough of those? Does anyone have a nice story? I'd really like to hear them.

Please.

It was. [Vash nods sagely.] Very sad.

But no time to be sad! There were very scary bank robbers stealing everyone's money! See, the town we were in didn't have any sheriff or lawmen so they thought it would be easy to push everyone around and take whatever they want!

Now, I couldn't let that happen! So I decided to stop them. Just, they had guns and I didn't as mine was still not working right.

That doesn't sound very [smart] safe. How did you so then without a weapon?

Easy! I bluffed! I put my hand in my pocket and stuck my finger up as if I had a gun!

Wait. That worked?

[Who would be fooled by that?!?!]

It sure didn't! They all immediately started to point their weapons at me! [Vash laughs like having a bunch of guns being pointed at him isn't a big deal.]

But it's okay! When the towns people saw me in trouble they decided to try to help me. Then Frank saw the whole thing. As he watched he realized that although the situation wasn't fair for anyone. He'd still feel terrible if he didn't do anything, but slightly better if he helped and failed.

So he managed to sneak up behind the leader and put his finger to the man's head. The leader was so frightened thinking it was a real gun that the whole team ran off! So the people's money was safe and no one was hurt thanks to Frank!

Oh wow. [Can't believe they fell for that.]

That's really impressive. And how wonderful that Frank decided to help.

Yeah, he hasn't even touch a drop of alcohol since! At least, since the last time I saw him!
