EVENT: Upgrade!

[trainmasters]

Who: Everyone
When: Day 57, morning
Where: The train!

[ There is a new car attached to the back of the train. You'll have to get past the garden, the gym, and the library to get to... the arcade.

Near the entrance is where you'll find the conveniently-placed machines to get tokens to play any of the arcade games. It seems to be a formality because it doesn't actually cost you any sparks to play the games, but be sure to swing by there before you hit up the games. And what an array there are! Overall, there's two floors filled with various types of games.

There's the crane games, filled with various cute plush versions of monsters you may have faced before (both during your stay on the Aurora and back home) as well as, more rarely-- is that a plush of yourself? Or one of your teammates perhaps, someone you care about on the train. It might be worth trying to pick one up!

Next of course are the video games and there's an array for all kinds of interests-- Rhythm games of all types, fighting games, shooting games, racing games... There's no shortage of different types you can play. Try one out, you might like it!

There's also a variety of purikura photo booths if you and/or a friend would like to try your hand at getting a cute set of sticker photos.

You've got some time to relax for the moment, so why not try it out at the arcade? ]

Yeah, that was pretty standard, but at least everything else has more variety.

Or the obviously dangerous thing like weapons. Weapons are supposed to kill you. Cars are supposed to get you places.

[voreaciously]

I am not certain if that should be a point of pride or concern.

[schrodingerscockroach]

Both. I am very concerned why my life is like that, but proud that it didn't kill me.

[AS FAR AS HE KNOWS.]

[Really, it's more a wonder why he wasn't in the Forest five times over.]

[voreaciously]

[>proud it didn't kill him








wew. she is not about to have that conversation now. sigh he'll remember soon enough though, or he won't. she still cannot be 100% certain this is the one she knows.

anyway.]

I suppose that would be something to be proud of, yes. It speaks to your competence.

[schrodingerscockroach]

[He would argue he got back up again so technically it didn't kill him long.]

I am all about being competent.

Now if only I could find a way to be competent at 'make cars hate me less.'

[voreaciously]

Correct me if I am wrong, but is it not the people driving them that you ought to worry about?

[schrodingerscockroach]

Not always.

The space station had no driver. That was just how gravity got turned back on.

[voreaciously]

A space station.

[schrodingerscockroach]

I meant the car on the space station.

Gravity got turned off, fight happened, I turned it back on and when I looked up, there was a car flying at my head.

[voreaciously]

Oh, dear.

[schrodingerscockroach]

Ducked in time, of course.

So far, a space station hasn't tried to come for my life.

Been enjoying the arcade?

[voreaciously]

I regret to inform you that it is now going to happen. Or something similar.

[she's not a superstitious person much, but honestly, his fucking life warrants it.]

[schrodingerscockroach]

[....honestly, fair.]

Yeah, probably.

Does a ship crash count? Maybe that counts. It was pretty massive, like a single thruster was the size of a train car. Went down in a canyon and the only people that survived were those of us in the combat grade power armor.

[voreaciously]

[the fact that he remembers all these things and, more importantly, what happens after makes her wonder what actually killed him.]

That is unfortunate for those who did not have the armour.

[schrodingerscockroach]

[DCMK labd and its love of bombs in enclosed spaces.]

Yeah.

.... [There is a long, distance look from him for a minute.]

Anyway, my track record is stupid. At least there's no vehicles here to run people over.

[voreaciously]

[just waits patiently through the pause.]

Not yet, anyway.

[schrodingerscockroach]

[Gotta just put away all the dead people.]

Well, this world doesn't seem like it'd have much in the way of vehicles.

Unless it's like candy themed go kart land.

[voreaciously]

[oh man that sounds awesome actua]

I would not put it past what remains of the universe to do so.

[schrodingerscockroach]

....true, but hopefully candy hurts less than tons of metal.

[voreaciously]

I suppose we shall see what this star has to offer in that regard.

[time for SCIENCE!]

[schrodingerscockroach]

I guess so.

If you want help, I'm up for it. I kinda know proper scientific protocol. And also willing to punch rude candy that can't even taste good.

[voreaciously]

I never said I was going to do anything.

[like, SHE IS but liste]

[schrodingerscockroach]

Well then, are you going to do something?

[voreaciously]

[she could lie but it would be pretty pointless ultimately]

Perhaps.

[NOT A LIE!!]

[schrodingerscockroach]

Well, if you decide to do it, I'm up to help with science.
