So Claudia had this great idea a few weeks ago, and given the lightness of the mood around here lately...Well, we were thinking laser tag would be a great addition to the Barge. I've been messing around with laser weapons, and vests - it's a really basic transmit/receive system - and I might have a few almost finished prototypes.

Would anyone actually be interested in a game? [Slightly sheepish, he isn't sure if he's too old to be asking about laser tag, but laser tag is awesome so shut up doubts.] We could throw in elements of capture the flag, make it really involved. It would be a good way to spend some excess energy, I figure.

[Private to Claudia]

Hope you don't mind I spilled the beans, but I do have a prototype, if you want to take a look at it. It's still really basic. [I.e., feel free to upgrade it. 8)]

[Private to Dick]

Want to watch a movie?

[Private to Sara]

Hey, uh. This is a little awkward, but Dick mentioned running into you during port. Did he seem...himself?

[Private to Luther]

How do you feel about basketball?

[Usually, Tim would just eat in his cabin. He had his whole apartment in there, and his kitchen tended to be better stocked than the Barge kitchen, especially when they were low on help and they ate sandwiches for days on end. Tim had gotten picky(er) about his food in the past few years, and day after day of ham sandwiches were not conducive to putting on spandex and kevlar and doing backflips.

So normally, he'd keep to his dining room, with his egg whites and his salads, but today he was tired of staring at the same walls, with no one there to eat with. So he headed out in the afternoon, pausing long enough to lock his door (which looked simple as a key in a lock, but really was much more complex than that because Tim is a paranoid weirdo) before heading down the corridor to the mess hall. There he got the dreaded, calorie consuming sandwich, and a soda. He hadn't had a Zesti in way too long, and what they had here wasn't an exact match, but it was close enough.

He picked a table closer to the center of the hall than he usually sat, but kept his back to the emptiest section, keeping the entrance in view. Old habits die hard.]

Why would he trick me into letting him shoot me with a dangerous weapon?
twoheadsofcabbage: (Heel face turn.)

[personal profile] twoheadsofcabbage 2012-07-08 01:44 am (UTC)(link)
Why not?

[Scrad says.]

[personal profile] flashy_magic 2012-07-08 01:45 am (UTC)(link)
Because he'd probably get demoted?

Nothin' saying he has to do the shooting.

[Charlie points out.]

Still not convinced that he's conspiring to kill me.

I know. I'm just trying to figure out why they think you are.
twoheadsofcabbage: (It turns out:)

[personal profile] twoheadsofcabbage 2012-07-08 02:27 am (UTC)(link)
It'd give anybody the opportunity.

[Scrad says. Charlie quips:]

Yeah, like if we wanted to, now we'd know how to get away with it.

[Scrad continues:]

That's why we're sayin' you wouldn't catch us there.

But you don't want to. And as for anyone else, maybe they could, but that would piss of Kay, and no one wants that.
twoheadsofcabbage: (Hench-face.)

[personal profile] twoheadsofcabbage 2012-07-08 03:07 am (UTC)(link)
It wouldn't piss off anybody if somebody shot us.

[Scrad insists. Charlie adds:]

Uh, that's our point?
flashy_magic: (Explaining)

[personal profile] flashy_magic 2012-07-08 03:08 am (UTC)(link)
Yeah it would. It would piss me off. And me being pissed off would piss of Narvin and Kay, and maybe Arthas. I'm not sure about the last one.
twoheadsofcabbage: ("Sup Picard?" Said Wesley.)

[personal profile] twoheadsofcabbage 2012-07-08 03:10 am (UTC)(link)
...You're just saying that.

[Charlie says.]
twoheadsofcabbage: (A serious man.)

[personal profile] twoheadsofcabbage 2012-07-08 03:53 am (UTC)(link)
What would it even piss you off for?

[Scrad asks.]

[personal profile] flashy_magic 2012-07-08 12:50 pm (UTC)(link)
Well you're my inmate, and you're a decent guy.
twoheadsofcabbage: (Heeeeeeere's Charlie!)

[personal profile] twoheadsofcabbage 2012-07-08 11:15 pm (UTC)(link)
We're still not putting that to the test.

[Charlie says.]

No one asked you to.
