open mingle post;

[payback]

Who: Everyone on the waystation!
Broadcast: n/a
Action: open to everyone to tag into
When: October 11, 2014

[It sure is a lovely day actually pretty much indeterminate time period out here in the vast darkness of space, isn't it? I bet everyone's enjoying themselves, getting a chance to get off their dinky little ship and stretch their legs. Even on this shitty, empty little waystation.

Where are you, droot flooters? What are you up to? Stay out of trouble, now.]

[ooc: hi everyone! I thought I'd give this a try and see how the game liked it. What we have here is a mass mingle post. Rather than everyone making a bunch of different posts about landing on the station, everyone is invited to post a parent comment with their character out and about, doing something. Everyone else is invited to look at who's posted, tag them, post their own parent comments, thread jack, tag around and generally have a grand old time! It should hopefully be a nice low-pressure way to do some action tagging with each other.

Please tag in if you feel so inclined! Don't be shy to tag around!]

What?

Hey- no! You don't have to go that far! [THATS A TRAVESTY] C'mon, maybe there's something we can do with it.

[blindoptimism]

It's not my first choice, but it's something that I've been considering all week.

[she sort of... picks at her braided hair] It's just so thick. [like a black hole that absorbs the shampoo and conditioner that they have]

[wilder]

Yeah, but it's so pretty!

[AND THAT WHAT MATTERS RIGHT??? Cutting it seems terrible]

Can I take a look at it? Maybe I can figure something out.

[blindoptimism]

[asdgha Zelos that's actually really sweet. She looke embarrassed but hopeful]

A-Alright. As long as it's not an imposition.

[wilder]

I wouldn't offer if it was, I'm not that nice.

[Because yes, he denies any sort sweetness to him B( Or that he has a soft spot for kids. Lies, all lies.]

[blindoptimism]

[she tries to bite back a small smile at that, and... partially succeeds. But very well, she won't comment on it and nods thankfully]

Your own hair looks very shiny and well cared for. I shouldn't be surprised that you know a thing or two about this.

[wilder]

[He scoots over so he can reach for her braid. He gives out an amused sound]

Why thank you. I'd say I know some things. I mean the last place I was in? It was nothing but rain, all the time.

[blindoptimism]

[a slightly disgusted look crosses her face for a moment before she tries to hide it behind ~decorum~]

That sounds... unpleasant.

[wilder]

Oh yeah. And one of my roommates was this girl with super long pigtails? Like they nearly reached the ground long. Couldn't tell you how many times I had to clean mud out of her hair.

[blindoptimism]

[hehe, the mental image makes her laugh just a little, but she quickly tries to stop. Not nice to laugh at people's hair plights]

The last place you were in, was it not your home?

[wilder]

[the corner of his lip curls a little in amusement. He really doesn't mind the laughter, it was kind of funny when it wasn't tedious]

[And at that question...he shrugs, trying to play it off as casual] Nah. I haven't been home in awhile,

[blindoptimism]

[she nods, and there's a twinge of sympathy in her face]

That's a difficult thing to endure.

[wilder]

Yeah, but it is what it is.

[Honestly, he's better off not thinking about home, he finds]

What about you? Getting homesick yet?
