time is fake

[foraday]

Leon: Yes.
Leon: Want me to come to you?

Re: time is fake

[finalgambit]

Gambler; Nah.
Gambler; Ain't nothing doing at the church.
Gambler; Meet me at Dave & Busters.
Gambler; That's where the booze is.

[foraday]

Leon: Okay. On my way then.

[yeah he's heading right on over there]

[finalgambit]

[ heads to dave & busters and orders a couple of drinks, so there's ample booze to get drunk in by the time leon arrives. ]

[foraday]

[he does look a little better when he shows up, how's Adventurine lookin']

[finalgambit]

[ he's looking a lot better. his clothes are a little ruffled, but he's smiling in a way that he seems... satisfied. lol. ] Leon, hey. Over here.

[foraday]

[some of the tension might ease from his shoulders. Heading on over]

Doing better?

[finalgambit]

Me too. I'm no longer with child. [ snorts. ] Come on over. I got us a couple of drinks already.

[foraday]

No longer with child. Christ.

[he slumps into one of the nearby seats with a tired huff] I'm glad, though. Everything else is - I guess, back to this place's normal?

[finalgambit]

[ LOL. ]

[ should he tell him he still has his... ]

It seems like it. Thankfully.

[foraday]

[tell him if you want him to kill it - ]

Good.

. . . thanks. For what you did.

[finalgambit]

[ THAT'S BABY ONYX! ]

No problem. It was a 50/50 chance with that stupid butterfly ability. And I lost that gamble, so I made another.

[foraday]

[IT IS A PARASITE]

Hah . . . that's one way to put it. Next time, less gambling.

[finalgambit]

[ gambling is love.
gambling is life. ]

I'm not making any promises.

[foraday]

At least gamble with better odds, then.

[he's gonna just. Down like half of his drink, like a champ]

[finalgambit]

I thought the odds weren't half bad. [ he chuckles, downing his own drink. ] You ever play any games like these before?

[foraday]

[he pauses to look around, and after a moment shrugs a shoulder]

Not recently. When I was a kid they had arcades, but they weren't like this.

[finalgambit]

After a few drinks we should see what kind of games they've got.

[foraday]

Yeah? You got games like this where you're from?

[finalgambit]

[ he takes another quick look around. ] Nothing like these. I'm used to casinos.

[foraday]

Should've guessed that. We have casinos - there's a city across the country known just for that where I'm from.

[finalgambit]

Heh. I wouldn't mind if a casino popped up here, but I think I might be one of the only ones. But this might scratch that itch, even if just a little bit. [ he gets himself another drink and starts wandering over. ] c'Mon Leon.

[foraday]

[he picks up his drink and moves to follow]

Would it still be as satisfying? I doubt they'd have a casino with money . . .

[finalgambit]

Nnnot really. But it's something. A small scratch to a never-ending itch.

Probably not, but... maybe they'd find something worthwhile.

[foraday]

Food or ingredients would be worth it.

Though, people do just play it for fun.
