AUGUST EVENT: DRAGSTRIP RIOT
[it begins with a PA announcement on the morning of the 12th, Friday’s 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 GIL’S; 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. it’s probably fine.]

"I mean that it's... difficult to do anything with the information when you're here. I'm sure that you had planned for both outcomes, but there's no way you could have planned for this to happen to you."
He isn't going to ask. But he will say, "I doubt it helps, or even matters, but no matter the truth, I won't hold it against you. We've all done terrible things in our lives, knowingly and unknowingly. All that matters to me is what you plan to do moving forward."

And that's incredibly deeply personally honest, isn't it? It looks out at the cliff, though, and grabs its journal to begin sketching.

Skulduggery kills the engine, then sinks back into his seat. "If you'd like to get out for a better view, by all means. It's actually rather pretty, if a little sparsely decorated."
no subject
What it really means: I kinda want to just hang out with you in a contained space.
no subject
"Suit yourself. It is a nice car..." Skulduggery pulls out his phone for some more note-organizing, although at this point it's mostly aimless flipping between different chat logs.
no subject
It’s nice. Sharing quiet with someone. It’s like Skulduggery isn’t judging it or demanding more social energy than it has. He’s just here and that...that matters.
