Who: Kate Bishop + YOU
Broadcast: Fleetwide
Action: Iskaulit
When: Yesterday evening.

Want to play a game? [ kate's surroundings are, quite evidently, a lush little corner of málum. the neon-y blue tinge of the bar's decor casts its colour over her features. there's a tall, impressively concocted cocktail at her elbow. ] I mean, I know I do. So here's how it goes: you tell me anywhere you'd rather be but here, with the caveat that it can't just be a home. I think it's safe to say that home is a very understandable answer, but it's also a little too achingly realistic for my purposes. So pick somewhere else. Pick Ibiza. Pick Iceland, if you want.

Well, unless Iceland is your home. Then please refer to rule numero uno. It also happens to be the game's only rule. [ short and sweet, that's our katerade.

and maybe about an hour (and maybe another drink) later: ] ...Does anyone wanna come dance with me?

[ swipe right, dear flooters. swipe right. ]

You sure you want the honest answer?

[ dude you freaked out last time she was honest with you so she just wants to make sure you're up for it. ]

[residu]

[ LOOK space is hard and no one understands ): okay ]

if it involves aliens then no

[ladybro]

I promise no aliens are involved.

[ she lies -- for his own sake! because, hey, her ex-boyfriend is an alien with a spaceship that runs on imagination. probably best to just keep lying. ]

[residu]

[ that's....yes. Do that. Please lie to him a lot. ]

....ok
then shoot

[ladybro]

I guess you could say I handle this so well 'cause I work with a group of good guys who routinely...help out when things to pear-shaped. In space or otherwise.

.........

"pear-shaped" as in aliens?

[ladybro]

Or muggers.

[residu]

you mean like a thief?

[ladybro]

[ she leans back in her bar booth, tapping away on her device. ]

Thieves. Terrorists. Crooks. Villains of all stripes.

[residu]

[ WHEW. You know what? Those he can deal with. Those are normal and perfectly acceptable. ]

oh those
That's a little better

[ladybro]

Hey. Jihwan. Do you dance? Please say you do.

[ because he reads like he needs to seriously cut loose. relax a little. ]

[residu]

[ oh my god Kate he literally just at up straighter and went a little pink ]

dance??

[ladybro]

Like, to music. E.g., let your backbone slide.

[residu]

uhhhhhh
I don't even remember the last time i did honestly
I'm not really a dance

[ladybro]

Sounds like that's a no, then.

[ boo on you. ]

[residu]

[ he is a party popper and the most awkward ]

sorry............

[ladybro]

How about drink? Do you drink?

[residu]

I'm seventeen

[ladybro]

[ ...so? ]

Not a dancer but definitely a rule-follower, then?

[ friend, she definitely drank at seventeen. live a little! ]

[residu]

[ he has reasons for not drinking!! Which are not just because he is a spoil sport ]

that's me, mr. Rule follower

[ladybro]

So what do you do for fun?

[residu]

dungeon crawlers on my handheld
Which is of course:
not here

[ladybro]

Someone's gotta be able to program games on these devices of ours.

[residu]

there was an old guy I spoke to a little while ago who mentioned them
Maybe he can do something

[ladybro]

If he can't, talk to Kirito. Maybe Winn, too.
