[boy oh boy, isn't everyone just so excited to explore this... charming... place...?

this is a game-wide mingle and the timeframe isn't super-important, so throw in with whatever you want! play war games, go shopping for gas masks, get lost in the wilderness, hide up in the Iskaulit and refuse to set foot on the moon, anything goes.

here's the main event info post for reference! have fun!]

Apparently you know how not to - that's a good start!

[takingkarabusiness]

Well, first of all, I don't have a beat.

[winn]

[ he starts drumming on his chest ]

Next excuse -

[takingkarabusiness]

[ laughs, but fine. she'll robot.

not well ]

[winn]

[ don't mind the noise, that's just the victory bell going off in his head with the accompanying celebration.

he laughs ]

You do not get to talk about my dancing.

[takingkarabusiness]

Winnnnnnn!

[ she goes for a friendly shove but it might be a little on the hard side ]

[winn]

[ and he was not expecting it, so he stumbles backwards but manages to maintain his balance ]

Touchy -- did I hit a dancing with the stars nerve? [ rubbing his arm. wow, what is it with everyone dishing it out and nobody taking it - wait - ]

[takingkarabusiness]

—Oh! Winn, I'm sorry. I didn't mean to shove you that hard...

[winn]

It's fine - I'm fine - [ he offers a reassuring smile ] No Winns were hurt in the making of this joke.

[takingkarabusiness]

Still, I should know better.

[winn]

You're a little rusty, you just need to get readjusted.

[takingkarabusiness]

Yeah, you're right. And the pollution doesn't help. It just feels like a fraction of the potential recharge is being soaked up.

[winn]

Don't worry, we're on it. [ he smiles and squeezes her shoulder ] We'll get you powered up. Maybe the gradual approach isn't so bad -

[takingkarabusiness]

Why?

[winn]

Cuz that disclaimer probably wouldn't have worked with full power. C'mon - let's go explore!

[takingkarabusiness]

Okay, okay, let's go.

[winn]

Where do you wanna head off to first?

[ he smiles and nudges her excitedly ]

How similar is this place to other planets you've seen?

[takingkarabusiness]

[ she thinks about it for a moment and heads over to another storefront ]

Very dissimilar. I know it's all impressive being who I am, but I've really only been to Krypton, Earth, the station we were at before, and this moon. Krypton was more like Earth—sans birds—and the station we were on before was super nice.

[winn]

So this is as much of an adventure for you. If you ignore the 'against our will' and 'we're being watched' parts of it - it's kinda like we're taking a roadtrip! I always thought it'd be cool to go on of those.

[ in the 'thinking about it but never actually going to do it' sort of way. but hey, little by little he's learning to do a lot of things he thought would be cool to do while lying on his couch binge watching something! ]

[takingkarabusiness]

An interplanetary road trip. I like it!

Is there anything you want to get out of this experience?

[winn]

Well, I've been told I need some chill -

[ he shrugs. and some confidence, and some curiosity satisfied. the truth is, there's probably a lot to be gained from the experience. ] What about you?

[takingkarabusiness]

[ shrugs as well ]

It's hard to guess, you know? I'm sure I'll get a lot out of it. I like almost everyone I've met so far.

[winn]

Yeah -- you were right. [ he nods ] Most people are great.

[ he smiles without even noticing it. it's been such a refreshing experience, to talk to this many new people in this short a time span and hit it off with as many as he had. and with kitty and kate - as well as he had. those sort of friendships don't come around every day, especially not for him. ]

[takingkarabusiness]

[ she notices ]

Most people, or some very specific people?

[winn]

[ you know, he's not used to being on this side of the conversation. ]

Well, I haven't really talked to most people on the fleet - [ he's talked to a lot of people compared to himself, not a lot of people period. ]

But yeah, I mean - Kitty's awesome, she's helping me with project Plato [ oh did he not tell you he found a codename? it's not surprising though, is it. ] and Kate has some amazing stories and -- huh. Guess I have a friend type, girls whose name starts with 'K'.
