12th Inning

Apr 11, 2010 10:48

[Another lovely day in Mayfield, another day where Scout can be heard yelling at the top of his lungs. Wouldn't it just figure that the morning after this conversation with RED Sniper that Scout wakes up to find his not-wife, Ema, droned. Scout barely treats drones as people as it is, and was pretty smug about fact that he didn't have to live ( Read more... )

someone's cranky today, the time for flipping out is now, mayfield must die, action

[[Massimo was walking to the store to buy some things for the house, but he couldn't help but hear Scout's outburst from nearby. AND SINCE TAKING CARE OF YOUR FRIENDS IS MORE IMPORTANT, he's going to go check it out.]]

Scout? Are... you alright?

Action - someone cares about Scout's feelings? This concept is so foreign freakinblur April 11 2010, 21:18:24 UTC

[He was starting to march down the street with the packet of posters in his arms, when he whips around to see who called his name.]

No, Mass, I AIN'T alright, how can anyone be alright in this goddamn town?! I am so OVER this shit, Mayfield! [That last statement is addressed to the air around him, as if the Mayfieldian powers-that-be are listening.]

Action steel_massifail April 11 2010, 21:59:12 UTC

[[Massimo just stares down at his friend, unsure what to say. Mayfield's amazing at getting people down, and Massimo knows that.

But... there was always something there to make the experience more tolerable.]]

...The reason I'm sort of alright is because I've got friends like you, Engie, Vince... and others, too. We've got to help each other whenever we can, or we'll just be miserable.

[[He pauses for a moment.]]

Something happened, didn't it?

Action freakinblur April 11 2010, 22:33:52 UTC

[He crosses his arms roughly and leans against the phone pole he was stapling a sign to a moment ago. He shakes his head.] This goddamn town. Droned one 'a the girls in my house fer no goddamn reason. Ema never did nothin' ta deserve it.

[[A droning? Again?]]

...I'm sorry.

[[He tries to lighten the mood with a small smile.]]

But... um, think about it this way: maybe she went home?

Action freakinblur April 11 2010, 22:55:20 UTC

What? What makes ya say that? I mean, she's still in my house.

Action steel_massifail April 11 2010, 23:11:25 UTC

Y-yeah, but we don't actually know what happened when we're droned. Even I don't.

Action freakinblur April 11 2010, 23:17:05 UTC

Well count yerself lucky ya ain't been droned then, pally. I got droned once an' I remember every last bit of it.

Action steel_massifail April 11 2010, 23:29:42 UTC

W-well, I was but it... people said it was more like a permanent droning that wasn't really permanent after all.

Action freakinblur April 11 2010, 23:35:57 UTC

But, I mean, sometimes people come back, right? RED's Scout did, right? He was droned fer like, months an' months, an' came back. I mean, how do ya know what's permanent?

Action steel_massifail April 11 2010, 23:37:51 UTC

...I don't know.

[[HE HADN'T THOUGHT OF IT LIKE THAT.]]

Action freakinblur April 11 2010, 23:44:28 UTC

Exactly. That's the problem with this place. Nothin' makes sense. Nothin' lines up. Ya can't figure anythin' out cuz none of it's consistent. And that's exactly how they want it. That's why I'm tryin' ta investigate this place more. I can't WAIT ta fuck 'em all over.
