spiderwebs. gwen stefani really speaks to my soul!!

There are a few music stores near ... actually it's kind of weird to get to. I can send you directions though.

As for my favorite song? Oh, gosh, it's hard to pick but it'd probably be "Dancin' Jimmy Cash" by Jagged Stone. He's the greatest! ... but probably no one else here has heard of him. At least there aren't any places that carry his music -here-.

There's this one that a king I know and his brother sing whenever they go raiding. After they're done killing and pillaging, you can always hear it. I don't know if it has a formal name.

[That was Vikings for you. They loved music, but never better than when they were doing something like burning people alive.]

Bananas.

Sure. I appreciate it.

Must be exclusive to your home, miss...?

["Ash" appears on the screen with a curious tilt of his head.]

If you don't mind my asking, were you one of the sort to do the killing and pillaging.

[He's asking for a friend, you see.]

Of course.

[He smirks. It's like asking if the sky was blue.]

That's what Vikings do.

So I've heard.

Have you ever thought of being a bodyguard for us lesser able sorts?

Not really. I'm better at killing than I am protecting people.

[Though, that was an interesting idea. Ivar wondered if this man's perspective of him would change if he knew he was permanently in a wheelchair, a condition easy enough to hide when he was only communicating through the network.]

[Probably would just wonder why no one's built Ivar anything to help him walk normal.]

Even better! I've been thinking of venturing to some of the harsher sides of the city, as well as outside. I wouldn't be against a more offensive skill set.

After all, the best defense is a good offense.

[He'd see anyone doing that as just showing him pity. He's got a prickly sense of pride when it comes to his legs. He mulls over this man's words.]

If you need someone to accompany you, I can do that. I'm on the Perimeter Guard here. Do you have any skills in protecting yourself or are you completely helpless?

[Way to not sugarcoat things.]

Anything to help.

And yeah, it probably is. It's a shame, I would definitely love to hear his music again. It's been too long. [ A pause. ] Then again, people have said things from home appear here sometimes, so there's always a chance I might find something of his in the stores.

OH! Sorry, listen to me, rambling on. My name is Marinette.

of the 'this shit is' variety? not bad, not bad...

ok i guess my REAL answer would beeeee... cry in the wind. all that 80s goth stuff was the shit!

Indeed.

Hmm..I can only assume that's a real song. Certainly sounds Goth-like.

[Well, that was a lot to take in. Kind of Harley-ish, in a small way. He doesn't interrupt once, seemingly used to this sort of behavior before offering his own name in return.]

Ash.

As helpless as an open clam.

[Oh, he likes that though! Very much. Yes, yes, he really likes you Ivar.]

Tsk. We'll have to fix that. Anyone can learn to stab someone with a knife.

[Ivar's second-favorite weapon, only behind his axe in terms of use and fondness.]

Hmm..I suppose that is true. Well, I hope you choose something good.

[Ash doesn't much like em...but Joker does.]

Don't worry about that. I'm very good at seeing things stay dead once I pull out one of my weapons.

[Apparently, he's letting his crazy show rather early, but this man doesn't seem to be too nonplussed about it.]

[ How nice of him to let her babble! ]

Ash, huh? Nice to meet you, Ash. So... what kind of music do you like?

Hmm..a little bit of everything seems a cliche answer, but it is true. I lean towards classics from both rock and orchestrated pieces.

yeah it's all about making your enemies cry and beg for forgiveness

There's nothing wrong with saying 'a little bit of everything'. It's good to have variety in your tastes - I've never listened to classical rock or orchestras or anything like that, though. I guess I ought to, sometime. I might find something I like just as much as Jagged.

Well..consider me interested, sir.

[If anything, he's eager to meet Ivar!]

Ah, now the username makes more sense to me...but maybe you will. You never know till you try.

How terrible.

[Terribly awesome~]

Heehee, yeah, probably no one would get the reference if they haven't heard his music. Oh! Here, before I forget- [ Inserting directions to said music stores! ]

[Blip! Received.]

Oh, why thank you.

[ YAY! ]

Anytime! If you need help with anything else, just look me up!

Oh, will do! Are you always so pleasant, Marie?

~~[He could use a new sidekick/girlfriend to manipulate/control/confuse]~~

Ah, I hope it's okay to call you that. It sounds like a fine fitting nickname of sorts.

[ There's a split second of silence, because he caught her off guard with the nickname. Though she wasn't offended or anything, just surprised. ]

Oh -! Uh.. sure, yeah, it's fine. [ It's not like it's insulting or anything. ]

Anyway, I do try to be pleasant, yeah! I mean, sure I'm kinda stuck here for a while, but that's no reason to be grumpy about it. I just make the most of it while I can.

[ Mari, five months is a little more than a 'while' tho... oh well. ~~A-also good luck with the whole girlfriend thing, ffftt~~ ]

Edited 2017-11-21 13:32 (UTC)

[True. Rather nice sounding name, actually.]

I can understand that. I plan to do the same.

That's good!

Anyway, I should let you go, especially if you need to check out those music stores. Let me know if you need anything, okay?

Well, it is a bit of a shame there are no tour guides in this area. I suppose it's because we can just punch something in and let it guide us. You wouldn't be against showing an experienced man the sights and sounds of the city, would you?

[He says 'experienced' cos he ain't saying he's old. Nope.]

Oh, not at all, I'd be happy to. [ It's no Paris, and never will be, but she's kind of fond of the ol' place on the moon. ]

Anytime you're free!

Why thank you! I appreciate it. I'll be in touch.

(OOC: I'ma tag her open post in the logs community, since that went up not too long after the beginning of their comment thread here.)
