33rd Inning
Sep. 4th, 2010 01:29 am[It could be worse, right?
Upon waking up in that stupid tux, Scout rolled over to see him sharing a bed with his not!wife. After taking a goog looooooong look at her in that get up, he starts to get up.]
Wake up, yer missin' the fun!
[Scout takes a look around, poking at the food and smirking at the stocked minibar. He tries the door - locked, and he's not surprised.
So long as Mayfield doesn't pull any other weird crap, this might actually be fun.]

Wait a second. A bullet bra that fits me? This is hideous! Hahaha!

Date: 2010-09-04 05:45 am (UTC)[He doesn't sound the least bit rattled though.]
You think that's bad? Check out this tux!
[He does look pretty ridiculous. Time to take off this tie and jacket.]

Date: 2010-09-04 05:54 am (UTC)Ahhh, a romantic getaway without the children. I've read books about things like this. We're supposed to make love by candlelight, or something.
At least there's food, right?
no subject
Date: 2010-09-04 06:02 am (UTC)Pretty much! The town's pretty fixated on this whole fake family thing. I'm glad yer here an' not a drone!
I wonder if we can trust it. There's a lotta booze in here though!
no subject
Date: 2010-09-04 06:27 am (UTC)I like this place! This room, anyway. We should make the most of it.
...Know any drinking games? Or how about you tell me about yourself, hm?
no subject
Date: 2010-09-04 02:10 pm (UTC)[He'll start taking bottles out of the minibar fridge.]
'COURSE I know drinking games. Tons! Any specific kind ya like? I wonder if we got any cards around here....
Huh? Me? Well there ain't much ta tell. Just yer run-'a-the-mill elite mercenary, ya know?
[He grins. Ain't he modest?]
no subject
Date: 2010-09-04 03:20 pm (UTC)Something that'll get me drunk fast is fine, dear. Or I can just get completely smashed while you tell me about this mercenary business.
no subject
Date: 2010-09-04 03:33 pm (UTC)[He pours 2 glasses of whiskey, tosses in a few ice cubes and hands you one.]
Been one the last two years. Ever hear 'a BLU? Builder's League United? Prob'ly not if yer dead 'r whatever, right? But they're who I work for. Some 'a my teammates are in town, but so are some of our rivals too. REDs.
no subject
Date: 2010-09-04 04:23 pm (UTC)I've never heard of this "BLU", but you have teammates here? Anyone I might know? I'd love to hear what you all do.
no subject
Date: 2010-09-04 10:20 pm (UTC)Me, though? I do pretty much a little bit 'a everythin'. Stealin' secret crap, takin' over bases, blastin' dudes in the face, kickin' some ass. An' gettin' paid for it!
How 'bout you then? You got some kinda crazy grim reaper job, right?
[Enjoy drinking Scout under the table, by the way. He drinks them strong but he's a total lightweight.]

no subject
Date: 2010-09-05 06:41 pm (UTC)So, like, is it a hard job? How's it work?
no subject
Date: 2010-09-05 08:03 pm (UTC)How should I put it... I was injured when I left.
no subject
Date: 2010-09-05 09:16 pm (UTC)Injured, huh? Ya weren't dead were ya? what a bummer that would be. I've heard of a few people in town that ended up here that way.
no subject
Date: 2010-09-05 09:29 pm (UTC)Oh, not dead, but I was missing a few parts and some ribs. [She touches her side gingerly, as if the wound would still be there.] It's funny... our bodies don't really go into shock!
no subject
Date: 2010-09-05 11:41 pm (UTC)Ya musta been in one hell of a fight before ya got here then.
[At this point he goes over to the dinner that have been laid out for them.] I wonder if these 'r safe ta eat, or if they did somethin' weird to 'em. If yer here come Valentine's Day? Don't eat the candy.
[He takes a small taste anyway.] Huh. Not bad!
no subject
Date: 2010-09-05 11:43 pm (UTC)You know, if it's not permanent we might as well dig in, right? Even if we die, who cares? [She's joking, of course.]
no subject
Date: 2010-09-06 02:47 am (UTC)[He pulls out a chair at the table and gives a little bow.] Whattaya say, my lady? Care ta join me fer dinner?
no subject
Date: 2010-09-06 02:50 am (UTC)Oh! This looks great. And with alcohol, too! I could get used to this.
By the way, what do you mean, "respawn"?
no subject
Date: 2010-09-06 02:57 am (UTC)Not too shabby, considerin' it's Mayfield. Can't help but think somethin' else might happen though. Besides bein' locked up, this is too nice fer them.
Oh, the guys we work for, when we die on the battlefield, zap us back ta life after a few seconds. I haven't a clue how it works, but Engie might if anyone does. But, I always say that BLU spends too much money on us ta let us just flop over dead like that. So, back inta battle we go! Ya get used to is pretty quick.
no subject
Date: 2010-09-06 03:16 am (UTC)Ahhh, well, if something else happens, I'm going to be a little useless!
Just like that? That can't be good for your soul.
no subject
Date: 2010-09-06 03:25 am (UTC)[Scout's changed so much. Just a few months ago he still freaked out when weird stuff happened. Now? Whatever. iIt's Mayfield.]
Like last month? The whole town turned Soviet. Everyone got crazy jobs. I mean the whole thing was pretty twisted, people gettin' "reprogrammed" an' killed an' stuff. Pisses me off. But when we don't know who's doin' it, it's hard to stop it.
[He pokes at his food for a moment, frowning slightly, but he shrugs it off pretty easily. YAY WHISKEY. time for a refill.]
Yer soul? Wouldn't know anythin' 'bout that.
no subject
Date: 2010-09-06 03:30 am (UTC)[She pauses for a moment, then speaks gently.] You look a little sad. I'm sorry if I upset you. Drink more! Drink it all away~ I deal with sad, neglected, lost souls a lot. I'm a little more compassionate than some of my co-workers, so I get sent on some pretty strange missions, you know?
no subject
Date: 2010-09-06 04:02 am (UTC)[He looks a little confused. Scout is manly and is not sad what are you talking about. But he'll gladly take the "drink more" advice. He's definitely buzzed at this point. Such a lightweight.]
Hey, I been here a long time. It's nothin'! Just how things go here.
no subject
Date: 2010-09-06 04:18 am (UTC)I also have binding spells, attack spells, and I'm pretty handy with a sword! And I have--
[She looks down, pulling the edge of her dress aside to examine part of her... erm. Chest. She frowns.]
no subject
Date: 2010-09-06 02:32 pm (UTC)[Y hallo thar, boobs. He blinks in confusion but admires the view when you do that.]
no subject
Date: 2010-09-06 04:14 pm (UTC)Me and Ai? She's so sweet, isn't she? And shy...
[Rangiku makes a little "Hmph" noise before she covers herself back up. The limiter is gone; they'd take that, too?]
no subject
Date: 2010-09-06 09:55 pm (UTC)Yeah, she's a good kid! But she's like some kinda... spirity thing too. But I think she deals with bad people. Somethin' about takin' people ta hell.
no subject
Date: 2010-09-06 11:48 pm (UTC)Oh, yes, we talked about that. It's really hard to imagine her doing that, or even something as kind as what I do. Something about her just makes you want to protect her doesn't it?
no subject
Date: 2010-09-07 12:33 am (UTC)He grins.] Yeah. She's a good kid with one bell of a job.

Date: 2010-09-07 02:18 am (UTC)Yep! This town's tough enough fer kids as it is. Geez, I wonder what they're all up ta while we're stuck in here.
