So turns out even helping citizens being brutalized by the Hand assholes can get you locked up in the slammer for the night. I'm trying real hard not to turn into a three-headed dog-monster and break out of here, just gonna do my time until tomorrow morning, cause otherwise there's no way some innocents won't get caught in the crossfire. Maybe some of you might be up for distracting a gal?

See, there was this drinking game we'd play at the bar: What the fuck is up with that?

Gotta make some adjustments for a network, but just chime in on this post if you wanna play. Other people will ask you, What the fuck is up with ____insert-thing-here-about-you_______? and then you're supposed to answer honestly or drink if you don't want to answer it. Obviously you could still just lie, but then you're a coward. If you're not into drinking, you can think of some other way to punish yourself for not answering.

But for instance, you might ask me, "What the fuck is up with you being able to turn into a three-headed dog-monster?" Or you might ask a friend, "What the fuck is up with your hatred of chickens?" or "What the fuck is up with you being so tall?" Sky's the limit. One time a guy asked another guy, "What the fuck is up with you being so handsome?" and that kicked off a whirlwind romance for them.

Just a way to way to pass the time while we wait for people to be handled and for the beacon to be activated for those who actually want to head home, and you'll be saving the city from the wrath of me so, y'know, an easy way to be a hero.


(OOC: thread jacking wildly encouraged. feel free to plurk about your chars comments so their cr could potentially ask them stuff. go wild! drinking game lovingly borrowed from Critical Role. )

And nobody's kicked his ass why?

He's never in reach. The ones who are his emissaries would be the likes of Karsa, ah? Master Scorpion is always ahead of us, further east.

But you all roam from place to place taking up the roles, causes, and jobs he gives you? Has anyone just refused?

Some. The real difficulty is getting in a place to procure both a beacon and know the location of it's gateway. His connections do set us up for that, and in lands we're all strangers to, those connections aren't to be ignored. Or blindly trusted.

Damned if you do, damned if you don't?
weifinder: (quiet | watch out)

[personal profile] weifinder 2023-11-28 07:42 pm (UTC)(link)
The damning truth, ah?

Still. Go into everything with eyes open. That's all.

Every time I talk to you I just get more questions, you know?
weifinder: (ffs | see my dream passing by)

[personal profile] weifinder 2023-11-28 07:51 pm (UTC)(link)
Hah! After more than two years here, I'm still finding new questions, and never enough answers. I wish I could assure you otherwise, but ah, it's not yet true.

You should come by the windmill. Sanji will feed you and I'll get a list of questions together.
weifinder: (ask | from the cold)

Name a time, there should be some in the present chaos to visit!

Tomorrow around suppertime? Or later if you want to avoid the feeding frenzy.
weifinder: (clever boy | you're looking)

[personal profile] weifinder 2023-12-01 03:10 am (UTC)(link)
Am I allowed to watch the feeding frenzy?

Frankly, it's hard to look away.
weifinder: (glance | yeah i follow my track)

[personal profile] weifinder 2023-12-01 03:58 am (UTC)(link)
Then count me in! Are you much for wine? Tea?
cartographie: (asprin)

[personal profile] cartographie 2023-12-01 03:59 am (UTC)(link)
Wine is always welcome, you're becoming my favorite houseguest already.
weifinder: (mask | and i realise)

[personal profile] weifinder 2023-12-01 04:14 am (UTC)(link)
Hahaha, I'll take that! Wine it is, I've my eye on a jar, bottle, whatever you want to call it, with a particularly nice taste.

( not a grape based wine, but a grain based... one... anyway, it will be the adventure! )

[ She's indulged in all kinds of spirits on the East Blue, an adventure will be fun! ]

Some of the people in this house would drink it whether it tastes good or not, keep your hand on your jar while you're here.
weifinder: (cup | i wanna help you)

Happy drinkers as well as eaters?
