DEUX | NONE OF THESE RELATE WHATSOEVER s-sob

[juvante]

[ Good evening, folks. Today, you get three not so lovely options as Monaco does her best to adapt to Mayfield.

Un: After thoroughly complaining about the bland clothing here, Monaco can be seen on the porch with a sewing kit, ripping off the extra length to a poofy skirt while altering her blouse. A few needles may or may not whizz right by your

[Sighs as he watches her dump the fish in the lake. Awkward.] You alright there, Monica?

[juvante]

Oh! [All your tuna are belong to us. She visibly startles at the unexpected voice, flopping in one of the fish a little too harshly. That voice is easy to distinguish, and she glances over at him sheepishly.] Yes, fine! Just couldn't bear to see them becoming someone's next mea---a-ah, nevermind. [....Yeah. Awkward indeed.]

[thatsnotaknife]

That's ripper and all, love- [seriously, it is. He honestly does want to help the conservation effort and all that, honest he does.] but are ya sure they'll be okay in a tiny lake like this?

[juvante]

Well, I wouldn't want anyone to have to deal with a pool full of fish. [Looking over at the size of the lake, she can't help but frown. Oh, look, idea lightbulb.] It was the closest body of chemical-free water I could find. I don't suppose there's an ocean nearby?

[thatsnotaknife]

Nah, reckon we're too far inland for that. [Looks so disappointed and confused who would put a town not within an hour's drive from the beach?]

[juvante]

[What is this concept of no beach. Her face falls a little, but she tries to hide the disappointment by placing another fish in the lake.] I see. This town only continues to get worse, doesn't it?

[thatsnotaknife]

S'all messed as. [Stares at the fish and wonders how they taste. At least he's more subtle than Japan.]

[juvante]

It's boring. The drones are rather frightening, as is the clothing. [...Huddling over her bucket of fish now in an attempt at subtlety.]

[thatsnotaknife]

Oh, fuck yeah, there's nothing to do and the drones are boring as when they're not being as creepy as all fuck. And I swear I've got three copies of the exact same suit in my wardrobe...

[juvante]

I suppose I'm lucky I got sorted into a house with actual beings, rather than robots that want to take about the weather. Of all things. And, to make matters worse, they wouldn't even allow me to buy a gun because it isn't lady-like to purchase firearms. That's news to me, really. [Pause.] At least Mayfield isn't in the status it was before I arrived. Taiwan mentioned the....incident.

[thatsnotaknife]

I had two kids, but now Goldilocks is braindead too. [Not too sad, they weren't close. Bit weird now though.] An' yeah, that was... Want me to get ya something, babe?

[juvante]

You have a drone wife, then? Must be irritating. Apparently Finland and I are married and produced children that look nothing like either of us, but it's preferable to being wed to certain...individuals. [And by that, she's implying Russia but hello tact and politeness.] Oh, I couldn't impose on you. I don't terribly need anything.

[thatsnotaknife]

If you give me the cash, I can get a gun for ya. They don't care who it's for.

[juvante]

But I'm certain they wouldn't like it very much if it fell into my possession. [But she contemplates for a second or two, before lightly shrugging.] I suppose it couldn't hurt, could it? It would make me feel a great deal safer in this horrendous place.

[thatsnotaknife]

Same as anything else, you just keep it too yourself and you should be fine. S'only for emergencies anyway, yeah?

[juvante]

What else would I use it for? [She laughs lightly, shaking her head.] Yes, only for emergencies. I'm not as trigger happy as others.
