[The midway wasn't Yuri's favorite part of the planet, but that didn't mean he didn't enjoy it. After all, even he couldn't ride roller coasters or play laser tag all the time. He liked competition as well as the next guy. And when he wasn't doing that, there was something to be said for people-watching.

You never knew what you might see. Like, for example, a grizzled-looking guy who reminded him a bit of the old man, carrying around a large stuffed animal.

Someone else might have worried about being welcome or even the fact that he didn't think he'd me this guy, but Yuri didn't see the point. Nothing wrong with being social. So he fell into step beside him and gave him a grin.]

Nice whatever-it-is you've got there.

[John heard a voice next to him, but didn't see anyone right away. He had the problem of of a giant stuffed animal blocking the majority of his view.

He stopped and swung around to face Yuri, the limbs of the stuffed animal swinging about in an almost comedic way.]

Huh? Yeah, this whatever-it-is looks too much like an animal that's tried to make me its supper on more than one occasion. [John wasn't sure if it was supposed to look like a cougar, but it sure reminded him of one.] You want it?

vesperiaftw May 23 2011, 09:39:34 UTC

Yeah? [He looks at the stuffed animal a little more closely, then shrugs.] Doesn't look like any monster I've ever seen.

[He shakes his head and smirks at him.] Thanks for the offer, old man, but no thanks. You're not my type.

gunofadeadman May 23 2011, 17:19:05 UTC

Don't know if I'd call it a monster. Just a damn nuisance with sharp teeth and claws.

[John would facepalm if he had any hands free.] Not... not like that, I just wanna get rid of it. You know anyone that might want it, maybe? A kid or somethin'?

vesperiaftw May 24 2011, 02:46:55 UTC

[He shrugs again.] Sounds like a monster to me.

Lots of kids on the ship. You could ask. [He eyes it again thoughtfully. After all, it's easier to see than the guy he's talking to at the moment.]

Maybe you could make a game out of it.

gunofadeadman May 24 2011, 04:22:15 UTC

A game? Yeah, that's a real fun game, me gettin' to carry it all the way back to the Thor. [The complaint is followed by a shrug, however. He's been through worse.]

Maybe I can throw it back at the alien at the stand while he's not lookin', then high-tail it outta there.

vesperiaftw May 25 2011, 05:25:03 UTC

[Yuri sighs and shakes his head a little. This guy's kind of weird.] Not like that. For the kids.

gunofadeadman May 26 2011, 02:58:56 UTC

[I'm not weird. I'm just a walking anachronism.

so yeah a little weird.]

You mean like a competition to win the thing?

vesperiaftw May 30 2011, 10:55:04 UTC

Yeah, something like that could work.

[He eyes the stuffed animal doubtfully] Someone's got to want it.

gunofadeadman May 31 2011, 18:06:08 UTC

[An amused scoff] You don't look too sure about that.

vesperiaftw June 4 2011, 07:44:00 UTC

Yeah, well, it's not really my thing.

But I'm not a kid anymore either. [And when he was, he never had anything like that. He can't quite imagine what it'd be like.]
