Hey, everyone. I'm Sam, and some of you might have seen me around the Perimeter Guard facilities. I happened to notice that there's a lot of fellow veterans here, and I was thinking that some of you might be interested in an organized time to just get together and hang out. For those of you who know what my day job is, I promise this isn't connected, and I'm not trying to get you into any support group - although you're always welcome at group sessions if you work for the Guard.

This is just a chance to get together and drink a beer or two, or the beverage of your choice, with people who've been through the same kind of thing you have. If you're from Earth, think of it as a VFW kinda thing. If you aren't from modern-day Earth, then it's just an opportunity for soldiers of all sorts to get together and shoot the shit. It'll be at a bar, so, you know, you can play pool or watch the game or whatever you wanna do. And if you wanna trash-talk different branches of the service, then I'm sure there'll be some of that going on, too. Just keep in mind that at the end of the day, we all got more in common than not, whether you're Army, Marines, or someone who flies in space. You're all welcome to come.

Next Thursday, 7 pm, the Riverview Bar and Grill. You got any more questions, feel free to ask.


[ooc: I'll be posting a mingle log for this next week! If your character was a soldier or member of any kind of military back home, you're welcome to come and hang out. :> ]

Hey, I did most of my jumping out of choppers.

Although, man, chopper pilots are a whole other breed. I think we can both agree on that.

Rotorheads. They're just jealous.

That said... I had a hell of a time when I did go blades of glory in Afghanistan.

Watching you crazy bastards jump was always a treat. I kinda wish we had some way of scoring the landings. Like a giant dartboard.

[wingedman]

Oh, yeah, it'll be the chute Olympics. Maybe we can start doing some tricks in midair to keep you entertained, too.

[spoiler: sam would totally win that one]

[deploy]

I hope you're serious.

I'm all for Cirque Du Sam.

[wingedman]

You don't believe me? I'm kinda hurt.

I got moves that'd knock your socks off, trust me.

[deploy]

Them some big words.

Gonna back them up?

[wingedman]

You wanna drop me from that fancy shuttle of yours, sure.

[deploy]

Do I want to drop you out of a shuttle?

What kind of question is that?

I'd love to.
