HARK! How the bells, sweet silver bells...

Who: Everyone
What: Holiday Events
Where: Piper 90 - The Rig
When: Post-Rose Tattoo
Warnings/Notes: Holiday cheer, smooches, tactical snowball action

It's the Holiday Season in the Gone Away World and on the Rig in particular! Though they claim to be open to any cultural celebration of this time of year, the dominance of Santa Claus, reindeer, and elves in decorating really kind of blunt that claim. But the PA system, when not blaring alarms or fuzzy announcements for working party C to show up at the maintenance bay, play Christmas tunes of all sorts at inconvenient volumes. Decorations hang limply from the walls. And every worker with children has been issued a shotgun and a bandoleer of shells loaded with pellets of cold iron.

Just in case.

[ Tucker takes time out of his day to look confused. It's a miracle the Stuff didn't just give him a power of manifesting the woman squinting with an algebra overlay meme in real life. Then-- ]

Ohhhhhhhhh, right. Dude, I totally forgot first and second base were even a thing. I always just sprinted for third.

[ Tucker, foregoing baseball in favor of a 100-meter dash approach. Historically placing poorly across his long and confusing career.

He was doing a little lean on the side of his invisible cone of deserved shame, which he also forgot about. Karma gets him back in that when it vanishes, he almost totally eats shit. Nailed it. ]


Yes. Fuck you, Jorgmund! You're lucky I don't pee on the floor anyway to make a point!

[ Tucker is so smart and cool, that's what this entire ordeal has proved. ]

Oh, and, uh. Thanks? I guess you can keep me on call if you need out of a stupid force field before any teenagers show up. Then if it didn't work, I could secure the perimeter until you got a grownup that plays ball. [ Sincerity??? In this Tucker? Probably on the list of things about today Tucker will go ahead and refuse to admit he is capable of.

Wash has reasonable brain cells and understands personal limits, and therefore he can have one whole passcode for lower-tier get out of jail free affection. He is the only dude on the Rig for whom Tucker will currently reserve that..... "honor." ]
