It seemed like a good idea at the time...

Date & Time: 2698, fin-de-millenium, just prior to the formation of the United Earth
Location: Las Vegas
Characters: Break, Kevin, Gilbert, Oz, Elliot, Alice, Allen, Lenalee, Rosette, Chrono, Chrysos
Summary: Fear and loathing
Warnings: Showgirls and Gilbert weeping.

The statement “Let’s go to Vegas” exists as the multiverse’s quintessential definition of, “well it seemed like a good idea at the time.” Even in this case, it really had, between zombies, insurrection, and the day to day tedium of life on the moon. Besides which, Xerxes Break has a new sentient (sentient-er) weapon, which in a stunning show of good judgement is too dangerous to test on the moonbase, nor in any concentration of people. Las Vegas, set against the backdrop of the vast, desolate Mojave desert, seemed to be a perfect choice.

When our heroes wink into existence, squinting against the early-morning desert sunshine, they’ll find themselves duly welcomed. Come play in the casino. When you feel a bit peckish, indulge in all you can eat. Take your winnings and go shopping; at night, take in a show. And if you’ve done really well gambling, unwind in a ridiculously luxurious suite.

…or is this how you’re spending the night?

Thirty-six hours in Vegas, what could possibly go wrong?

...

[He takes a few seconds to understand what she is asking.]

Oh! You can have everything, sister. I have many, many other bags. And a tiny pirate ship too. Except that it has chips instead of tiny pirates. I say, do you think we should call it a chip ship?
soul_sister: (Fifty of them?)

1/2

[A.... a whole bag. SHE COULD MAKE A FORTUNE WITH A WHOLE BAG.


MAYBE PAY OFF ALL OF HER DEBTS.





MAYBE LIVE LIKE A PRINCESS AND NEVER WORK EVER AGAIN.........





A WHOLE BAG]


You..... you....
soul_sister: (Yeah... so about that.)

You're really drunk, aren't you?

[He doesn't know what she is talking about.]

Drunk? I have never been drunk in my entire life!
soul_sister: (What if I just hit it a lot?)

I probably shouldn't leave you alone like this.




You can be my good luck charm!

My, my, I do not think I have ever been a good luck charm before.

[He tries to stand up, but the floor seems unwilling to stay under his feet.]
soul_sister: (WHERE DID ... WHAT... WHO)

[personal profile] soul_sister 2013-12-05 05:30 pm (UTC)(link)
WHOA WHOA!

[She scrambles to try and catch Kevin before he hits the ground. This is Las Vegas, no one's face should EVER EVER BE NEAR THE CARPET OF A CASINO FLOOR.]

[Rosette is such a good friend! That is why she gets an affectionate hug instead.]

What a strange floor!
soul_sister: (About that car)

[WHAT IS SHE... .....P-pats his back?]

... You are no longer allowed to talk to me about that ONE TIME drinking ever again. [She shifts to put his arm over her shoulders. Clearly, she is going to be the more responsible one and do the right thing.]

Come on! You can vouch for me if anyone asks my age!
