  • I find myself wondering if anyone might be watching the match... must be more interesting stuff going on somewhere. Right? "Thanks, Lether, give you a ride out if you wanna be there," I shrug like, 'why not?' but I expect he's probably busy busy he…
  • Lether's in a generous mood. Surprised, a bit. Not unhappy about it. "Yeah... let's get that done," I need to get back to the depot, but not in that much of a hurry. "Just let's get me outta here before UF tightens up... hey... and guess what? I'm …
  • He's right about that, I nod in agreement... little look on my face though as he mentions the state of the borax. "It uh... got a little bumpy gettin' past Ziggy's crew... one casualty..." I gesture at that box, "it ain't good huh?" I reach back i…
  • "Whoa are you kiddin' me?" I take the colorful Jolly Rancher cherry stix candy, "Thanks! Lether, you know how to make a wayward courier feel at home." I actually smile and let my guard down for a second. Takes some discipline to slip the thing in my…
  • I'd like to see him try to open my door withou my nevermind. But I hit the unlock and let him. I step out and it looks like he's having a hard time of it... Hell I give him a hug, like a bro hug kinda thing though. Not the leads to a night in the …
  • June highlights Cinch.
  • I smile in excited expectation. This'll be a rush. "Hey June, you up for a ride-along? Or... uh... you got something important to take care of here, don'tcha?" Either way, I need to get my delivery squared away, then I'm free to 'play'.
  • Mimi huh? Poles and flags? Beckett has some kinda debt she's working off, hard. She's been taking risky jobs, high paying but... stuff you wouldn't want on your resume. No wonder she's not up for the event. Probably dealing with people you don't w…
  • June makes a good point, and I answer, "more than a few of Ziggy's crew out there calling me 'that choob in the car' right about now, I reckon." I grin and shrug, doesn't bother me none. Ace is asking for... help though? That makes me step up, read…
  • I can't help show a little pride as she talks about my vehicle. "Tank?" that makes her sound slow, "I'll tell you how, Ace. You sell your mg and targeting system for upgraded power matrices, horsepower, and mil-spec active kinetic dampers, don't a…
  • "Yeah I'll prolly be visitin' June 'round here time and time off..." I wish I didn't have to get this delivery going. Would be fun to stick around for the show. I take a step closer to her, lower my voice slightly, little more earnest, "real glad …
  • Smile at June, didn't know they were so familiar either, and take a few steps out onto the arena floor amid a wave of nostalgia. "Yeah! Ace, June and I are friendly enough," I take a turn, taking in the arena. "Skorpions in the main event? Doin' al…
  • "Heya Ace!" I pause at the open gate and call to her, hand raised in greeting. It's been over a year already, "still out there kickin' ass, huh?" Looks like she's lost an eye along the way... crash, maybe. Or shot. Shudder. "I like the new look!"
  • Kinda exciting, right? This place brings back memories. Few months after coming here I got talked into driving this autoduel rig one night for team Skorpion. Was a team thing, driver and fetcher up in the back... they had these long poles with flag…
  • I see June's reaction as I glance back, "Mimi," tense up and helmet back on. Hands-free. "Not my favorite ray of sunshine in the desert," I talk kind of sharply, "tried to run me down outside'a the 'Stop the other day..." I keep an eye on her but t…
  • I nod-nod as she talks. Looks like there was more to Rufe than I thought... (MC: What do I know about Juice?) "Well you know how it works, put a thing in my hand and tell me it belongs somewhere... it's as good as there." I open a hand and hold …
  • "Gotta be the same then, snakes only hunt when they're hungry," they don't cannibalize or anything. Just a figure of speech. "You find something'a hers?" Hurry? "Well..." run a hand through my hair, slightly moist with perspiration, "Lether probab…
  • Business feeling mostly done I finally remove my helmet and sling it over a shoulder by the strap. "Yeah," I gesture towards the desert, "I picked up a couple strays... sedan you said? Smoked out good? Found a woman named Rufe and her kid," I smil…
  • "You," I begin, then stand, "are a genius..." I wipety-slap my hands together twice like you do when you've figured something out. "Wrap'em up for the road then and let's settle." I slide a jar of vinegar and a sizable sprig of basil together and o…
  • "Pfft," I smile and shake my head, "thanks for clearing that up." But she does say something intriguing. "Sand snakes been riled up these days... nearly got snakebit myself..." She's just uh... looking at me huh. Not seeing another stool I crouch …
  • Overnight? If I have to... I'm on the clock and that makes me restless as hell. But if June's not making herself obvious until morning then that's that. Maybe her class of establishment this night didn't match mine. Car spends the night in garage, …
  • Stopped on the side of the road, dozen or so miles out from the Irons, delicately scraping the dusting of Borax from my back seat into a plastic bottlecap, then dumping that carefully into it's box. I try to get the package back together for Lether,…
  • [CINCH] Harm move +0 (Rolled: 2d6. Rolls: 4, 3. Total: 7)
  • Straight through. Speed's gonna get me there and they'll be shooting at dust. Acting under fire: +2Cool (Rolled: 2d6+2. Rolls: 4, 3. Total: 9)
  • Nobody at the gun? Dirt bike ain't stopping me. Sorry Preen. I pour on the speed, speed is what's getting me through before that gun can bring to bear. The engine roars and that feel of acceleration hits me in the back and this is living! "Whooo!"…
  • Pay the toll? I've been looking forward to running this thing all morning. My heart's already pumping and I have an idea which way I'm going to play it... they know me. Know my ride... might hesitate to fire on me. Wouldn't that be nice? I stand ne…
  • Not sure what that means... I scoop up my helmet and holster belt, "yeah." I finish the conversation how i started it. Somehow. Pause a moment and smile at the old watchman as I place my helmet back on my head and get my holster just-so. I can't he…
  • [CINCH] Interfering with Hypnotic: Hx+3 (Rolled: 2d6+3. Rolls: 6, 3. Total: 12)
  • Smiling at her joining me, defying her... whatever... to shout at the sky like mad. It's a thrill. Did I actually manage to get my message through to someone? I holler again as she's shouting, joining in. Then Sierra comes down from the moment and …
  • I fidget a bit, she's got her head back there... going to get her in trouble... but something in me makes me almost laugh. "Well..." I stand, reach out to take that hand she so tentatively raised towards me and yank her to her feet, but I let her h…
