Wellspring Arms & Meditation Center, Thursday

[the_merriest]

Rikku was going home soon! Home soooooon. Home to kill monsters and fiendies and steal their stuff. And maybe there'd be Tonberries to play the karma game. The karma game ruled.

The Wellspring Arms and Meditation Center? Was so very open. And Rikku was bouncing on her toes behind the counter.

Talk to Rikku

If you can deal with the hyper.

And as often was the case, during the morning, Cable came downstairs with a cup of coffee to run his random checks. He may have also taken a glance at Ino's plants.

What? He wasn't going to let them die. He paused by a showcase. Big gun.

"Morning!" Rikku waved. "How are you? Is your coffee good? Did I tell you I'm gonna be gone for break and is it okay that I won't be opening the store next week 'cause I'm gonna be home? I'm not, uh, gonna get in trouble for that, am I?"

Re: Talk to Rikku

[spring-lost.livejournal.com]

"No." There laid a certain level of skill in countering that volume of talk you could really only hone after years of practice. Cable opened up the case. "I'm training a new employee next week."

Re: Talk to Rikku

[the_merriest]

"Oh, okay!" Rikku bounced on her toes. Pause. "Uh. Not to replace me or anything, right? 'Cause I kinda like it here, and all."

Re: Talk to Rikku

"Not to replace you." He took the gun out, checking it over. "He'll work Wednesdays." Hm. Cable glanced up at it critically. And with real interest. "...Could you keep an eye on Ino's plants?"

Cassandra had had... a rough couple of weeks. Too many old memories and no one to talk to about them. It had her feeling nostalgic.

And when you were a girl trained from birth to be an assassin, nostalgia meant weapons. Cassandra was moving around slowly and carefully examining everything she passed.

Re: Talk to Rikku

[the_merriest]

"Hiya," Rikku said, waving to the other girl. "Aren't guns awesome? Uh. That sounds bad, but, you know."

Re: Talk to Rikku

[iseewhatyoumean.livejournal.com]

"Useful but loud," Cassandra replied.

Re: Talk to Rikku

[the_merriest]

"Good for range, though," Rikku said with a nod. "Usually it's just the mages that have that, and the rest of you have to get in close. Except Wakka. Still."

Re: Talk to Rikku

[iseewhatyoumean.livejournal.com]

Cassandra blinked, a bit confused. "Right." She wasn't sure what she was agreeing too.

"But close is better. Fewer mistakes." It was harder to kill the wrong person that way.

Pfff, Like Deadpool feared the hyper.

"Lil' Minion!"

Re: Talk to Rikku

[the_merriest]

"Deadpool!" Rikku bounced. "Hiya! How are you?! Did I tell you I'm going home for break?! Not all of it, just some of it! I'll be back soon! I can't wait! How are you!??"

Rikku: more hyper than usual.

(OOC: headache of doom, sorry, am back now!)

Re: Talk to Rikku

[mouthy-merc.livejournal.com]

"I'm good! No! Will you be having fun? Should I be ready to kick some ass and take some names if you don't?"

Rikku's hyperactivity? CONTAGIOUS.

[[OOC: Sorry! Went to bed early for the same reason, actually. SP?]]

Re: Talk to Rikku

[the_merriest]

"I'll be having a lot of fun!" Rikku bounced. "They found a dungeon! With really nasty fiends in it! Fiends that have all kinds of interesting stuff to steal! It's unbelievable! I get to go home and beat up monsters and steal their crap! I can't wait!"

(We're totally having the time-synch-up from hell here! Good thing SP tastes like yummy pie.)

Re: Talk to Rikku

"Awwww." Deadpool patted her on the head, smiling indulgently. "I always encourage petty larceny."

After his finals, John decided to check out the Arms. "Rikku, how's it going?" he asked, smiling at his bouncy friend.

Re: Talk to Rikku

[the_merriest]

Rikku beamed. "Hiya! It's awesome! How are you? I'm awesome! I'm going home! To kill monsters! I can't wait for break! How are you? 'Cause I'm awesome!"

The hyper was only getting worse.

Re: Talk to Rikku

"Now that sounds like an awesome winter break," he said, finding her hyper rather contagious. "Way better than visiting family." Especially when family sucked.

Re: Talk to Rikku

[the_merriest]

"It so is! I mean. I'll get to see some of my family? Yunie's family. She's my cousin. And Pops is gonna fly us out there on the airship and be all Pops." This got an eyeroll. "But I haven't been fiend-killing in ages! They're the really old ones, too, so they're gonna have all kinds of neat stuff! I can't wait! Do you really have to go see your family?! That sucks!"

Re: Talk to Rikku

[missed-the-gate.livejournal.com]

"What're fiends? Easier to hunt than vampires?" he asked, completely interested. "It's more of a 'John you'd better have a good reason if you're not coming home for the holidays' sort of thing. I'm still working on the reason."

Mod Your Zen

[the_merriest]

Check out the Meditation Room. Ohmmmmmm.

Shooting Range

[the_merriest]

If you have permission. And you probably don't.

Re: Shooting Range

[spring-lost.livejournal.com]

Cable had permission. This may have been because he owned the place.

He spent another hour or so testing out the gun on the range.

OOC

Please tell me I'm not the only one who plays the "Who Can Survive Their Karma" game with Tonberries?
