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?

I will use it well! We will amass our fortunes, starting now!
no subject
[ this she understands from experience, and she will follow rosette whereever she decides to go. ]
no subject
[She leads Alice into the swarm of lights and noise, finding a slot machine with a JUNGLE FRUIT!! in neon on the front.
She pauses to look it over. It LOOKED like a slow machine, but where was the pull handle?]
Huh.
no subject
lead to the neon lights, naturally, alice peers over her shoulder to see what she seems confused about.]
What's wrong?
[ hey, pictures of fruit! yummy. ]
no subject
[But it already ate their dollar. She pokes at it.
Then shakes it a bit....
And finally punches it.
LIGHTS SWIRL AND FRUIT SPIN BY ON THE MONITOR. A cheesy graphic of jungle leaves play across the computer screen, finally dropping into photorealistic fruit.
There's no telling what EXACTLY three bananas meant, but by the lights and sirens, it was probably a good thing.]
AH!
no subject
Ohh, you're good at this stuff! [ alice nods, totally impressed as if rosette knows what she's doing and it isn't dumb luck. ] Here!
[ she hands her a cup for her to hold the coins in, the same way oz showed her before. ]
no subject
OF COURSE! Could there be any doubt?
no subject
[ more money means more food. ]
no subject
She plops the cup down between this slot machine and the next.]
You try with that one too. With your good luck, I'm sure we'll have enough to BUY the casino soon.
no subject
[ clearly the answer is to hit up every slot and win everything.
only... the jackpot was probably a one-hit wonder. or a few hit wonders. time paradoxes and all. nevertheless she moves to the next slot machine next to rosette. GAMBLING TEAAAMM. ]
no subject
She swings her feet and feeds coins into the machine.]
So, you work with Oz, right?
[BING BING BING, a small payout, but nothing amazing. She feeds it right back in.]
I bet you have to deal with a lot.
no subject
[ she says this firmly, not allowing it to sound like they're equals! well, they kinda are partners, aren't they?
gilbert's the servant, i mean what. she takes a moment to consider this... she's only able to be strong because oz accepts her. of course, it's not exactly something she will say out loud.the slot machine gives her nothing but a disappointment this time and in response she makes a face at it but nothing more. it's okay, she has more money to spare. in goes another coin from her previous winnings. ]
... What do you mean by that anyways? [ there's the running off a lot, doing his own thing, using her powers without her permission, not paying attention to her when he should...
one of these things is not like the other. ]
