Day 152 | Open

Who: Colin, and YOU! That's right, you.
Open: Open
When: Day 152, mid-morning
Where: At the monument
What: Setting up another expedition to the Observatory.
Format Can match.
Warnings: Standard Colin warning. Anyone involved may find themselves saying "Colin pls" or "Dammit Colin" without much warning.

Colin's spent much of the morning gathering food from the farm. Navits, donuts from the trees, and some fresh veggies as well. Normally, he'd take these to the distillery for Rin to work on, but today he's got a different plan. He's set up a table in front of the monument, and he's spread out the snacks on plates. Then, he's going to sit behind the table and start working on some electronics while he waits for people to approach him. He'd have done this sooner, but the past couple of days have been rough on the Bastion's inhabitants.

The food bribery method has worked for Tris, he's hoping it's going to work for him too. Of course, if it doesn't he'll track down a couple of select people. But he'll see how his fishing expedition goes first.

(OOC: In four days in-game time, Colin will be taking another group to the Mancer's Observatory. There's a giant plant that needs to be dealt with, and Colin wants to go through the Mancer's hangar to salvage ships or ship parts. If you want in? By all means, post here! There will be an OOC post a little later on to better organize things, but this will give us some IC time to prep for it.)

(EDITED: Per Mod request, the expedition will now take place on Day 156.

[Naturally, the first to show up food bribery is Alucard. And yes, by now he is well aware that this is bribery, but he just doesn't particularly care.

Instead of saying anything, he simply starts eating one of the donuts and stares at Colin, awaiting explanation.]

[He ponders this for a minute, the first doughnut disappearing along with part of a second one before he has an answer.]

...I would be willing to fight.

[After a day of revelations and time to cool his jets, Nathaniel is finally feeling like he can start towards repairing the damage he helped create. Unfortunately, when he sees Colin, he is a touch suspicious.]

What's all this for? I thought we ate at the Distillery.

[Ragnarok is at his happiest when food is involved. Crona has no problems chatting with Colin. So of course they decide to wander over.]

You're going to ask something, aren't you?
bastionpc: (Nathaniel)

[personal profile] bastionpc 2014-01-26 01:31 am (UTC)(link)
[He considers it for a moment, but decides against it.]

I'm not hungry at the moment. I'll still hear you out, though, what's up?
blackblooded: (ragnarok and look)

[personal profile] blackblooded 2014-01-26 01:48 am (UTC)(link)
Hell yes I saw them!

[Ragnarok is very excited. Crona makes a face.]

He keeps trying to eat too many doughnuts.

Um... I didn't go last time. It was bad, wasn't it? Rin got hurt.

I'm willing to bet that one of the newcomers made it.

['newcomers' as in 'someone who arrived in the last month.' Stuff like this has to be from one of the many worlds out there.]

Actually, that's not a bad idea. Leaving a monster there like that huge plant monstrosity is just asking for trouble.

[Nathaniel frowns when Colin says that last part.]

I know that the Observatory isn't being used anymore, but it seems wrong to just cannibalize the place.

I fought next to Rin once. Um... It didn't work well. Her ears are sensitive.

It was a long time ago, you know. When... [When they found Osahar. But he's gone now.]

When there was a giant pecker.
blackblooded: (ragnarok and glee)

She's a little fragile.

It's hard for us to go fight things with everyone. Lots of people here can't stand noise. We're noisy.

We're loud as hell!

[Ragnarok is pretty proud about that.

It's a statement that probably sounds a bit strange, given Crona's normal awkward shyness.

Big doesn't mean anything.

... Is Rin coming? One of us can go. Not both. It was an agreement we made.

Screw Rin! I want to kill some shit! Sign us up, loser!

[Ryu wanders past with his fishing pole, and then stops. He has an idea of what's going on. ... But food. He walks over, picking up a donut. It's kind of weird, but he takes a bite.]

[At least he remembers to swallow before speaking.]


You want to go back there, right?

[... Toshiko is suspicious of this. But she's hungry, and Colin seems... well, not harmless, but at least not an enemy. She approaches the table, grinning.]

What's up? I'm guessing this isn't a sign of some picnic celebration.
