Something beautiful happens in this world [Open]
Who: Deputy Pratt and YOU!
What: Cake decorating, showing off his artistic prowess, shovel knight time
When: Later half of January
Where:Sand Dollars, the Library, Upper Deck
Warnings: None! (Well that's rare for him)
1. Sand Dollars
Pratt has completed his scientific research (having Sharky eat various cupcakes while naked) and has taken actual notes which are in the little notepad next to him while he sits at a table in Sand Dollars. He has one of the plastic trays from the buffet and has assembled a circle of cupcakes onto it to resemble a cake and is using a plastic butter knife to spread the frosting around so it looks like it's all one piece.
The wrappers from all of them are on the table nearby, along with some colorful other cupcakes that he's going to scoop the frosting off of in order to write out a message on this cake.
Yes, he is making the Captain a "Congrats on the Sex" cake. Sure it's been a few weeks but his memory is trash okay. He's trying.
2. The Library
Well, the binder is gone, which sucks because Pratt has already forgotten 80% of the contents. He assumes one of those people obsessed with blowing the place up stole it. So he will add his contribution to its recovery.
In its place is a Serena Eterna spiral notebook with a ship on the front, the ship is crossed out and instead there's a reproduction of Ryan's original cat drawing of Guatauva, but every page afterwards also has a cat drawing. He has faithfully recreated every cat internet meme he can think of. There's space above and below to make them into ship-centric memes. So have at.
His drawings look like this because I'm not going to draw 30 cat memes.
3. Deck
Pratt picked up the best package from home he's ever gotten. It was huge heavy and when he unwrapped it he squealed like a school girl because he's so damn excited. Friday is his favorite person for the next few hours because he has his shovel launcher now. Which is exactly what it sounds like, it is a rocket launcher, that shoots shovels.
He has a pile of shovels next to him, as he stands on the deck, aiming at the hull of the ship and then KUHTHUWNK the thing embeds itself into the metal siding and Pratt straight up cackles. Oh this is fantastic.
On the other side of him is his Christmas present he never opened which is 99 cans of Pabst in an absurdly long box and he's about to have the best day. Drink some beer, launch some shovels, spend way too long prying shovels out of the ship to do it again.
Montana's finest, right here.

Hit me with anything. He's always in the buffet or arcade or around the deck doing random patrols.

Yesss, hahah, dude! When she started havin' trouble with her scope, she started messin' around with this sorta like, crossbow-type thing, except instead of arrows it shot buzzsaw blades! I once saw one of them ricochet off three people! One blade! It was insane!
no subject
It ricochets???? Hot damn that's awesome. Fucking shitty such a bomb ass sniper went blind, but damn. Saw launcher.
[He drains the rest of his beer, standing there in the same sort of awe that a kid would have seeing Mickey Mouse walk out of Epcot center. Except an adult man and saw blades.]
no subject
[everyone knew that Kim and Nick were a power couple in Hope County, but not many probably realized how powerful their influence was until they came topside and started helping fix things.]
TBH, I wish she could come vibe here for a while. Like, obvi, Grace would hate this fuckin' place since there's nothin' to do all day, but she always looks like she needs five year vacay, y'know?
[not that... he stared at Grace a lot as both a thirty-something and fifty-something year old man...]
no subject
[Apparently some people are good fathers? Sounds like a myth but if anyone was gonna be, it'd be Nick Rye.]
How cool would this place be if we could come and go as we please. Just need a vacation and pop over to the ship for a month or so. Eat some food, catch up with Brad, sleep behind locked doors in an actual bed. Fuck. The Captain could market that.
no subject
[bright but reckless... honestly, the ideal combination of Rye attributes.]
Dude, that would be choice. The only downer is that you don't remember any of this goin' back, but like, is that a real rule or just something someone decided and wrote down in that binder??
no subject
[If they do sort this whole shit out and are forced to go back to something like their world instead of Florida, Sharky is gonna have to do a lot of fast talking to make sure Pratt doesn't get dynamite in the face immediately. Maybe they can pitch him as a circus attraction. Last peggie in existence or something.
Speaking of...]
Wait what? Why don't people remember it? Why not?
no subject
[somehow he can't believe that Mrs. Rye would be as open to seeing Carmina wield a frankly obscene amount of explosive ordinance, no matter how post-apoc they got.]
Oh, uhhhh, it just said like. If you were to "go home" or whatever, yourself back home doesn't remember the things that happened here? I dunno, the whole thing was worded by a total jackass.
no subject
[He nods because he's being totally serious right now. Kids gotta learn to protect themselves. Why doesn't Fio have a gun?]
Huh, I don't remember that part but that blows. That things gone now, dunno if you saw. I replaced it with a bunch of cat pics as is my solemn millennial duty. I'm gonna guess someone stole it to use it against the Captain or something stupid. [Groaaaaan.] Probably that spacer lieutenant now that I think about it. Damn. She's gonna get herself so fucking killed.
I dunno if I wanna go somewhere if I'm gonna forget all of this? Won't I uh.. go right back to where I was - freaking the fuck out cuz my last memory is dying? I don't wanna do that shit twice!
no subject
[and that's why the internet evolved the way it did. it's bad news and cat memes all the way down.]
That's my vibe, too. Like, if the choice is, "go home and forget everything" or "stay here and not forget things," I'm gonna pick the second option.
no subject
Like what is even the point if we do all this... [Character development.] all this shit, and then forget it all. It's like we wasted all this time for nothing.
[He runs his hands down his face.] I better not fucking forget hooking up with Bash. I'm never gonna bag a ten again in my life. Need to treasure that shit forever.
no subject
[TBH he's scored a lot of 10s on the ship, as far as Sharky can tell. it would suck for Pratt to forget all the good sex he's had here on the ship. plus, like, all their friends and all the progress he's made. that would be a mad bummer!]
Nah, you won't forget it, 'cos we're not doin' that. We're gonna con the guy in charge or bully him or bribe him and get our happily ever after in some non-Collapsed 21st century Earth. No other way for it to go. I mean, there are, but like. No ways I wanna consider!
no subject
[Not having Jacob around is great, but getting to be his nerdy gay self is even better. He doesn't wanna lose that.]
Florida or bust right? We got this. You're gonna have the best gators ever, and maybe he'll show up like years later to get him and the skeleton a baby gator like a puppy for Christmas.
no subject
[he says it knowing full well that Nobunaga isn't actually a demon. the point stands whether or not he's a real or metaphorical demon, right?]
Haha, comin' in with a pair of reading glasses on to indicate time's passed. Maybe if he takes that cake of yours and doesn't turn into a total dickweed over it, I'll even give him a discount. He can have whichever one's named Briefcase.
no subject
Heh, briefcase is an amazing name.
no subject
[.................. oh right]
Briefcase, Handbag, Wallet, Boots... That's the name scheme for gen-two. Gen-one's gonna be Louie Vuitton, Gucci, Versace... that kinda shit. I'm bankin' on the Earth in question having all those high-end brands, otherwise they won't make any goddamn sense.
no subject
Or you'll be a trailblazer. I kinda figure if we're in an earth like ours but not, most of the shit is still the same. God I hope so. What if we get there and we have to relearn all the slang and no one knows what the fuck we're talking about? On the plus side maybe there's new curse words to learn.
no subject
New curse words are a plus, but look dude, if that happens, we get to be the guys who started the big trends. If they don't know the word "fuck," we're gonna be able to quote George Carlin and make cultural goddamn waves.
no subject
[He grabs a beer and offers the launcher over.]
Wanna give it a go and let off some steam?
no subject
[fuck YES he wants to try it! he takes it off Pratt's hands with an ease that comes from handling a lot of Hurk's huge ordinance. (not like that, you sickos!)]
Gonna corner the fuckin' market on this shit.
