Here is an overflow log for the Black Rock, New Mexico mission! The original log is here, and the OOC information is here. Start new threads or continue old ones, this is just some more room for it to grow into.

[...Yeah, okay, there's no way to make this sound better.]

Technically all he did's show up, but I guess she's weak to his type.

[galactically]

Weak to his type?

[Wait, no, she can guess what Kazu is referring to. There may be a faint gleam of amusement right about now, and she chuckles quietly.]

She's distracted by an attractive man, hmm? Oh, I see.

[inline]

[Dark Type used ALSO HAPPENS TO BE TALL; it was super effective.]

Didn't get to see him myself, but I guess? It wasn't in the briefing.

[galactically]

Good-looking men can be a compromising distraction to girls who get swayed easily.

[A slight finger wag.]

She just needs to learn how to focus.

[inline]

Think it'd be easier if we didn't keep running into 'em. That's not normal!

[galactically]

For her to be distracted that often? It could be a problem if she's supposed to gain votes.

1/2

[inline]

Nah, the hot guy ratio's not normal. S'like they're out to get us!

[inline]

[But you know what, it basically amounts to the same problem, and this weather is too fucking hot to be playing hide and seek in. Kazu swipes his beanie off, running a hand through his mussed hair.]

Can't we just stuff the ballot boxes?

[galactically]

Hoh, you sound jealous for a bit!

[She's kidding, of course, but the next remark draws a concerned frown out of her. Stuffing ballot votes doesn't sound like a bad idea, but--]

I've never thought of that idea before, but won't you get in trouble if you do it?

[inline]

[He jams his hat back on despite having just taken it off, a little embarrassed by her teasing even though the thought's never crossed his mind.]

Only if they're sitting in an igloo with a soda and ice cream! But yeah, guess they wouldn't ship everyone out if it were that easy.

[Turning, he fixes the horse with a look close to leaden.]

Could probably do without this guy, though.

[galactically]

[She chuckles at the embarrassed look on Kazu's face for a moment before turning her head to glance at the horse.]

Why not get rid of it, then? Unless you need it to ride through this area.

[One of her hands extends out towards the long patch of land beyond the barrels.]

[inline]

[He looks where she's pointing, only to turn back with a shake of his head.]

Was just hoping it'd make 'em listen to her better.

[galactically]

Is that so, hmm?

[There's a smile forming on her lips at the answer.]

Well, a woman with a cute animal is supposed to have a charming effect.

[inline]

Ehhh, I dunno if this one counts—his breath kinda stinks.

[And it tried to eat his beanie, which totally doesn't make this a little personal.]

Aren't white horses a guy thing anyway?

[galactically]

[Okay, his comment is pretty amusing, hence the soft laughter coming from Sheryl.]

The knight in shining armor motif, it's where the term "white knight" comes from. Maybe you should be the one showing off with the horse!
