AUGUST EVENT: DRAGSTRIP RIOT
[it begins with a PA announcement on the morning of the 12th, Fridayβs voice coming through clear and cheerful.]
Any passengers that wish to debark to our latest port of call can exit the ship through the metal detectors on deck zero! Please be advised that all alcohol will be confiscated prior to your exit!
[and whoever heads down to the lowest deck will find that what she said was true: there is a metal detector set up there, with Friday manning it. after placing all metal objects (including weapons, and all your weapons) onto the tray, she gestures for the passenger to step through the metal detector.
they exit in an entirely different location. suffering from a splitting headache, and wearing an entirely different outfit than they had put on this morning, but unscathed. they even got their weapons back!
the interior of the diner is essentially your average jonathan rockets establishment. the narrow lane between booths and counter is manned by an entirely mute Friday clone, who cheerily takes orders and serves up food (cooked??? somewhere???) with an almost unnatural talent for roller blading. there is a jukebox in the corner that can be fed with quarters passengers will inexplicably find on their person. the available songs range from the 50s to the 80s, with a particularly wide selection of songs from the platters.
outside, the diner is a great chrome boxcar, circled by a small parking lot. a large neon sign proclaims it to be GILβS; it buzzes and flickers on and off often. passengers who have regained vehicles will find these vehicles parked outside. there are also a handful of midcentury American cars; none of them seem to require keys, and the gas tank seems set at full.
past the parking lot is a seemingly endless expanse of desert sand and scrubland, bisecting by the empty highway that the diner abuts. a few miles down this highway, the road forks into a smaller one, which winds its way up a steep, ragged mountain until plateauing into another parking lot, with only a small, old wooden fence between the cars and the edge of the cliff.
should they wish to return to the ship, passengers can leave at any time the same way they entered: walking through a doorway that now claims to be a mop closet. passing through will leave them on deck zero, again with a splitting headache. itβs probably fine.]

"I don't think polka dots have been in fashion since around this time. Women weren't allowed to actually be loud, so the clothes had to be. You are pulling it off though. Super frustrating having nowhere to put things, but the neckline does wonders for anyone. If you had some accessories..."
Sorry, she's inspired. It can feel free to walk away.
no subject
It has literally zero fashion sense. It wasn't programmed with one.
no subject
Clara may or may not be naming the contents of her own purse. "And I like to carry a bit of lipstick, a nail file, pepper spray."
no subject
no subject
She's not normally an advocate of such, but when in Rome, so to speak. She'll probably have to get used to some form of them, one way or another.
no subject
"I don't need knives. Guns, maybe, but I'm already armed." It pats a forearm to make the point.
no subject
Clara's not generally a nervous person but she's heard so much shit already it's enough to make her wary.
no subject
no subject
And truly, Clara would prefer not to. But this place isn't like anywhere she's ever been before.
"I don't wanna be useless if someone needs help and I'm between them and danger."
no subject
It pauses. "Do you know any self-defense or unarmed combat? That might also be of use to you."
no subject
"I took a self-defense class a long time ago, but it was more about getting away to run for help than actually fighting."
no subject
It nods slowly. "But I hope you don't end up needing to use it."
no subject
"Is the claw machine the only place to get weapons? Like...is it constantly refilled with random things?"
She saw the claw machine but never engaged with it after she saw the dead lizard.
