Who: Freya Vaughn & YOU!
Broadcast: YES
Action: If you want to swing by the engine room or her room on the Heron, go for it.
When: November 5th

[The screen flicks on and Freya has her boots pressed against the wall with her torso resting against the floor. It's hard to tell which direction gravity is flowing except that her hair spanned around her head in a golden halo.

She's wearing her little red ridding hood costume though only the bright red hood was really visible.]

Remember, remember, the fifth of November.
The gun powder treason and plot.

[She sings the song in a sweet voice that makes it come off as a creepy ring-around-the-rosy type of deal. Freya can't keep the monotone tune up for long before breaking into a warm smile, her light stormy gray eyes glittering as if a sun was peaking out from behind the clouds.]

Couldn't resist that. ANYWAY, I'm calling out because I'm going to go ahead and start a Dungeons and Dragons campaign. I have been making dice but they currently suck! So if anyone has dice let me know or I'm going to just program a random number generator and make people use that. [It's super easy to do with any computer.] So, I'm thinking of ways to make the campaign more interesting to those who are here, so if you're interested but it sounds boring, hit me up anyway. We'll talk.

Who knows, might be fun.

The idea is to have fun. If you aren't going to have fun then- [She waves a hand.] Well, ignore this.

Anywho, that's part 1. Part 2 is about candy. I will eat anything that's left that isn't chocolate. I miss sweet things and I can eat a lot. So if anyone has any, that isn't chocolate, then let me know. I'll take it off your hands.

Also if anyone has pepperoni. It's not a totally random question but related to another conversation.

I think that's all I got right now.

]She flashes the screen a happy smile, flashing her canines in the process.]

Later Drifters.

Dungeons... and Dragons.... Sounds like you are off to a world of fantasy, darling.

Sounds like you have quite the sweet tooth.

Video

[luckyescape]

That's the general ideal. Though the amazing power of imagination.

[She waves a hand in the air not unlike that episode of SpongeBob.]

And I do. I eat a lot. You could say that it's in my nature though it's been nearly a decade since I've had a proper sugar high.

[eternallyoutrageous]

The imagination can be a wonderful thing. Practically everything starts out in ones imagination at some point. Unfortunately I am not very creative anymore. That part of me was lost ages ago.

[The downside of being immortal. It literally took ones creative soul]

In your nature? In what way?

[necromanswers]

Dungeons and Dragons?

[sounds cool but she's not familiar!]

[luckyescape]

Yeah! It's a game where you make a character and then you go through these adventures. It kinda takes a level of imagination but it's a lot of fun.

Also not as dangerous.

[necromanswers]

Imagination...? oh, so it's all like- pretend?

[abracafcku]

Dungeons I'm down for because they got good loot, but dragons? Nooooo thanks. I like my beautiful skin unburnt thank you very much.

[luckyescape]

It's a game though dragons are kinda intense and rarely in the game.

[Which Freya always thought was odd.]

[abracafcku]

Having now seen a dragon in real life? Be thankful for that. They'll fuck your shit up even when they're babies.

[. . .]

So how many people have taken your game offer literally, and how many nerds have stepped forward so far? I wanna know for science.

video;

[luckyescape]

So far?

No nerds.

It is a very sad, nerdless day.

I was hoping for more to be honest. Though I'm thinking those who know the game haven't replied because they just aren't interested.

video;

[privateeyed]

Maybe they're just not that kind of nerd. [he shrugs a shoulder] 'Cuz there's definitely nerds here.

Also y'know, different worlds and shit. Maybe it doesn't exist for 'em.

What happened on the fifth of November? Was there a shoot out or something?

Video

[luckyescape]

Oh, it's a piece of history where I'm from.

A dude in a mask tried to blow up parliament. Which is the government. For context. It really isn't that big of a thing but there was a movie about it and that made it popular again.

People don't really seem to pay attention to history unless there is a movie about it.

[A beat.]

Even when they pay attention to it, it still usually ends up repeating itself.

Re: Video

[goldenglasses]

Yeah? You think so? I've always found it remarkable how people can learn and change from the mistakes that they've made. Although, I guess some people can take a few tries at learning the hard way before remembering a lesson.

[If this were in person, Lyall would have identified Freya by the smell, but since he's only ever seen her as a wolf, he doesn't make the connection.]

Not a fan of chocolate?

[Video]

[luckyescape]

100% not. I am horribly allergic and it will kill me.

It's also by far the dumbest way to die.

[He can't smell her but if he looks close enough, Lyall might notice that her eyes are the same light gray hue as the wolf he'd run into.]

[crow_dad]

[What she gets to see is a pretty face appear on the screen. And yes...that hair sure is shaped like the wings of a bird.]

Might I ask what Dungeons and Dragons is? I have no heard of such a game.

Video

[luckyescape]

[That is very cool hair.]

It's a table top game where you create a character and you play out a story that's effected by your characters decisions.

Video (and let me know if the auto isn't ok - happy to drop it!)

[survivalistcookbook]

[Dice. Campaign. The name of the game isn't exactly familiar, but it's so rhymey-similar to Demons and Darkness that Eugene doesn't doubt this is some kind of parallel universe nonsense.

But sure. He'll bite. Probably the least he owes her after she put down a catering-size order of cheese steaks planetside.]

If we're talking tabletop roleplaying, I did play a game back home, once. It was pretty fun. What kind of campaign were you thinking about?

Video (is all cool)

[luckyescape]

[Cheese steaks are delicious and she's forever in his debit.]

REALLY?!

[She's very excited.]

Sorry, you're the first. I was thinking basic dungeon raid to start since not a lot of people know what's up. Then I'm thinking pirate campaign.

[ginger_firebird]

Guy Fawkes Day and DnD? You don't look like the type to be interested in pretending to be an elf or a kobold, but this is the first time I've heard of something from my world that actually sounds familiar.

video

[luckyescape]

Oh yay! You know Guy Fawkes! You're so much cooler than you were five minutes ago which is kinda impressive because after the metal thread you were very cool.

[Freya's enjoyed that.]

I am also interested in many things. I'd probably pick up a Drow or a Tabaxi or something. But for now I'm doing the DM thing.

[ultima_mortis]

ARE YOU A WEREWOLF? [Tact takes a flying leap with Death, and he is quite curious about the insistence of no chocolate coupled with sharp fangs and a call for pepperoni.] I UNDERSTAND IF IT IS A BIT OF A PERSONAL QUESTION. PLEASE FORGIVE ME IF THIS IS SO.

video

[luckyescape]

That was not at all subtle.

[Just so he knows.]

But yeah, there were enough hints in there to get that. I'm also a were-human. For the record. Because there are other's here who are werewolves.
