5th Contraption || Just Another Day on Horror Cruise
Who: César Salazar and YOU
When: Early September
Where: Around the ship (Calgona to Cabins, Atrium Lounge, Laundry to Cabins, Closed: 102)
What: César is Jinx's new canvas after falling asleep post workout, César says hello to CR in the atrium, César says hello while carrying laundry in a horrid basket, and a backdated morning after zombies for the Triad and Boy
Warnings: None but will add them to threads as needed
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Tagged, You're It [OTA, Walking between Calgona and the cabins]
César sometimes falls deeply asleep for a nap on one of the Calgona's massage tables post after-workout shower. Look, he can sleep on his face and stomach, can you blame him?
Nor can we blame Jinx for what she does when she finds him. A fresh white t-shirt and light gray lounge pants make an excellent blank canvas and a good way to deliver a hint that she's missed talking to him. By the time she's done, César's clothes are far more... colorful.
On the seat of his pants are two smileys that compliment the stars on either of his cheeks. Down the legs and arms of the shirt are more stars, zig-zags, and swirls. On the back of his shirt is a brightly colored:
JINX WAS HERE
... someone should let him know as he walks back towards the cabins. Please?
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Say Hello [Established CR, Atrium Lounge]
The atrium lounge is a good place to run into others and stop himself from hermiting like he has in the last handful of months. When he spots someone he knows, César stops what he's doing on his tablet and stands, waving.
"Long time no sea!" The worst part about the pun isn't that it's not noticeable but that his player typed it by accident and died inside.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
What's in the Bag? [OTA (see options), Between Laundry and Cabins]
It's César's turn for Laundry Day. Which means he's carrying back neatly folded laundry in a fabric basket made from various Tommy Bahama Shirts with handles from a tote bag. This means that César's made an absolute monstrosity of a laundry basket. Yes, it was done on purpose. Yes, César thinks he's funny.
When he sees someone, he stops walking and smiles warmly.
A. If he knows that someone, he'll great them in a time of day appropriate greeting ("Morning!" "Afternoon!" "Evening!" "Hello!") and ask, whilst meaning it: "How are you today?"
B. If he doesn't know that someone, he'll still greet them appropriately ("Morning!" "Afternoon!" "Evening!" "Hello!") but change it up, instead asking: "Oh, are you new? I'm César Salazar. Are you settling in okay?"

The Morning After Zombie Apocalypse [CLOSED, Backdated, Rich, Johnny, Watson]
The triad dads could've lost Rich. They didn't, but it could've easily gone another way. So all four of them are crammed together into one bedroom, the bed (with Watson and Johnny) and the couch bed (with César and Rich) shoved alongside each other.
César startles awake when Rich kicks him in his sleep sometime in the late morning hours. "Mmmfph?"
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Message Received [Closed to Jinx]
César seeks Jinx out once he's gotten a new t-shirt and a pair of sweatpants. He knows where she lives, so he'll walk right into the theatre and call out:
"I got your message!"

Message Received [Closed to Jinx]
César seeks Jinx out once he's gotten a new t-shirt and a pair of sweatpants. He knows where she lives, so he'll walk right into the theatre and call out:
"I got your message!"
no subject
"Totally," he says, grinning. "But like, cool-hideous? The kind of hideous that's like, the best worst idea."
And Ryan's had plenty of those in his fashion adventures over the years, so it's not like he can judge. Besides, it doesn't even crack the top ten weirdest things he's seen, even if it's an abomination
(affectionate)."Oh, I'm Ryan by the way! Ryan Akagi."
no subject
(affectionate). Ryan gets him. Which means the best worst idea comment gets a round of laughter and an "exactly!"That name gets a light of recognition in César's face, and his smile grows somehow friendlier (there was room for that??). "Ryan! Johnny mentioned you. I'm César Salazar. He said you were in a band?"
... Someone's forgotten his laundry. Because he's putting his basket down on a washing machine and offering Ryan his hand to shake. Good thing the man's smart enough to arrive before the load finishes drying so that the beep will remind him.
no subject
"Oh! When we met he mentioned you too," he says. Admittedly he forgot the name until exactly this moment, but César's response makes everything click into place. "He said something about how he thought we'd get along, soooo nice to finally meet you. But yeah! Chicken Choice Judy! I'm lead guitar and vocals."
He will never, ever get tired of that being people's association with him. Yes, he is in a band, he is in the best band.
no subject
"Funny, he said I'd get along with you, too." César lets go of Ryan's hand after the socially appropriate amount of seconds pass (3 seconds); he laughs at the name. "Now that is a band name. Chicken Choice Judy. Lead vocals and guitar? That's amazing. Do you have a particular genre?"
To be fair, César's name is usually Americanized. He's even got people he's working with that can't remember how to pronounce it. César never even bothered to give the correct spelling back home, figuring it useless to try.
no subject
Ryan, won't have trouble with César's name - he knows what that's like, not from his own experience but from being best friends with Min-Gi for their entire lives and watching tons of people just flat out refusing to even attempt to say his name correctly. They shorten it, change it, mangle it, but they never bother learning how to say it right.
no subject
"Labels are for cans. Oh! Synth-rock and pop! I love those." César's grinning wide, and he pulls out his home cellphone. "But my Earth's a bit different, and in case the definition has changed...."
"Something vaguely like this, but also uniquely different from you?" He's getting into his music folders and a moment later, starts playing a random song partway through.
For the record, those speakers are pretty darn decent.
no subject
"Is that-- no, way too flat to be a walkman. Is it a tiny radio?" he asks. "Whatever it is, it's got super great sound quality."
Wait. He got asked a question.
"I mean, kinda close? Definitely different though. You'll have to hear us sometime."
no subject
"It's a cell phone. A computer that makes calls and does a bunch of other stuff." César stops the music after a moment before it becomes a complete distraction, putting it away. "I'll definitely have to hear you sometime. I mean, I'd come out regardless to support my fellow passengers. Your band is here with you?"
no subject
He finger-guns, like this is something very clever he's said and not just a bad joke.
"But yeah! We just need to get more equipment here and we could totally do shows. I heard people get free gifts sometimes so like, we'll probably figure it out?"
He shrugs. He has absolutely no idea, but the thought that he might just not be able to play after being on tour and living his dreams is unthinkable.
"That's so gnarly though, the computer thing? It's so small! That's seriously a phone too?"
no subject
"Min-Gi." Got it right, because he knows what it's like to be called Caesar. "I've gotten some pretty good things from my gifts, so I hope you get the equipment you need."
He laughs. "It's not just a phone. It's got games, books, comics, tv shows, movies from all over the world... lots of science journals. I'm a bit of a nerd."
You are more than a bit of a nerd, César.
