The Outlands' Inn (Downtime Roleplay Thread)

[Kevin]

Beans and Beef reach the end of the tunnel, starting for for upward trek to the cottage. Beans grabs his radio, speaking quickly into it again.

Meaty, where in the fuck are you, crooked dick motherfucker.

[Would you like some 3.14159265?]

Keiji heads down the stairs, rather quickly and eagerly, setting the device down right in the middle of the room, tinkering with it a bit.

"Watch and observe..."

Within a few moments, a small whir is heard, followed by a rhythm of beeps. Soon after, a hologram of what seems like a bust head pops up a few feet above the device shading a translucent aqua blue color.  Keiji stands and takes a step back, marveling at his work.

"There we are."

[Frolie [Jellykid]]

** Ali shrugs anxiously in response to Edwin's question.

"He gives me more than most, usually when he's drunk... but I've gotten used to it. Besides his brother and Matt beat up on him when he does."

[Dallas]

**Edwin straightens his tie out before clapping his claps together**

"Right, so, that guy said he'd be back in a few days, don't suppose you had any plans ruined by that? I suggest we all pack up and go. Because even I- with my vastly superior knowledge of all the cosmos- doubt we could easily stop whatever is coming in a couple days with..."

**Edwin gestures around him, all across the Inn's lobby.**

"...This."

[Kevin]

Scruffy looks to Edwin, standing up from the bar stool.

Fuck this, I can't deal with you fucking morons. I'm going to take a hit.

Scruffy waddles to the basement door and down the stairs, the stench of feces, urine, vomit and sweat following behind his somewhat overweight body.

[Dallas]

**Edwin rolls his eyes at Scruffy as he leaves**

Typical! You people, I swear... All this time I've been travelling but you people never cease to infuriate me.

**Edwin glances over to the projection, turning his focus to it, starting off towards it, face aglow with interest.**

Oooh, what's this? It looks like a big blue flickery-bickery thing...

[Frolie [Jellykid]]

** Ali bites her lip nervously, taking advantage of Edwin's temporary distraction to slink after Scruffy, down towards the horrid smelling basement. **

** Meaty struggles to twist his way around to face Matt, the horrid, fiery, almost aerosol-like alcohol on his breath blowing full strength into his eyes and nose, a subconscious method of freeing himself. **

[turhral=S=C=]

Ori turns to Edwin, sighing.

"Everyone here infuriate anyone, it's not new."

He then notices the teen girl, walking after Scruffy.
"Umm... Where is she going?"

[Sexy Frog]

** For a moment a darkened silhouette passes across the windows by the fireplace of the Inn before fading away but it is clear enough someone is there at the sound of the dank clopping of impact on the ground that stops just outside the front door of the Inn. The door knob jiggles eerily before creaking open, letting in a draft of air that could ruffle even the neatest hair style. As the light settles, it reveals a bulky figure dressed in white. Her large red eye sailing from place to place, surveying the populace before letting out a semi-grumpy 'Hmph' as she shuffles in, finally revealing a humble looking Vortigaunt donning a Laboratory coat.

[Dallas]

**Edwin looks past the hologram, towards Keiji. 

"It looks like a fusion powered painting... Or a can opener with a face... What is it exactly?"

[Kevin]

Scruffy finally reaches the bottom of the stairs, starting for a rather dirty and damp looking bed under the stairs. He lets himself fall onto the bed, ignoring Ali as she follows behind him. He pulls his backpack onto his lap, digging around. He pulls a meth pipe, a baggie of crack rocks, a baggie of bluish methamphetamine, and an orange pill bottle containing yellowish cream colored pills, laying them all out on the bed between his legs. He taps the three selections of narcotics one after another. "Eenie, meenie, minie, moe, catch a tiger by the toe, if he hollers let him go, out goes... you." He pushes the crack rocks away from the others with his short, stumpy and wrinkly finger. He grabs the meth pipe, bag of methamphetamine and the orange pill bottle, gently setting them within the confines of his backpack. After digging for a few moments more, he brings his hand out with a crack pipe. He takes his index finger and thumb from each hang, pulling apart the zip lock of the baggie. He reaches in whilst holding the bag open, pulling out one of the white rocks and setting it in the  end of the crack pipe, looking up to Ali.

"Want the first hit?"

Scruffy holds out the occupied pipe, careful not to let the rock within it fall out. He also holds out his windproof lighter, flicking the top open with a nod.

[The Doctor, RIP Juggernaut]

Matt continues to struggle to drag Meaty out of the inn while grabbing his radio on his belt..
Beans, you need to beat some more manners in to Meaty.
Slowly he throws Meaty out of the front door with a twinkle in his eye saying "Stay out unless you're going to stop calling that young girl a whore."

[Kevin]

Beans leans back on the couch, grabbing his radio as he sets his shotgun aside.

"You got 'im? Send his ass to the cottage."

[Sexy Frog]

**Shuffles into the Inn, standing a few feet before the checking counter as her eyes fall on Keiji and Edwin and lifting a claw to tap onto a slim looking ring about her neck. As she taps on it, the red spur of light on it flicks to green and she opens her mouth to speak, though it sounds as if two voices are being emitted; one in a strange dialect and the other in English, but the English being more apparent.

"So many visages pass through this location, this one finds it trivial to keep track anymore..."

She grumbles before stopping her gaze on Edwin.

[Dallas]

**Edwin squints at the hologram, speaking slowly but with a certainty in response to the vortigaunt**

"There's always more to see, always more to meet. You shouldn't judge everyone before you speak to them, that's how we make enemies."
