The Play's The Thing

[Reed Mills]

Beer number two is done. He drops his kicked butt in the bottle, puts it back in the six pack.

So Circe's familiar with some S&M club, huh? Reed's gotta ask her: "Asylum, huh? You go there often?" The mental image alone is enough for the Garden Gnome.

So, Abe's little camp had been a success? Why isn't he surprised?

"Maybe they just didn't have enough fruit? I'll bring extra to the next event." Reed pushes his hat back on his head and offers Abe and Circe a crooked smile.

Cei's boasting about his martial prowess gets a cackle out of the Wizened, "Humble, ain't he?"

Beer number three is cracked. Still cold.

[Circe]

Mmmmm, nope not much of a vermin problem around here dude," Circe though she got his meaning. The bad guys seemed to be giving the Freehold a wide berth for now. Maybe that dragon slaying business? As for horseplay that got her thinking of another project, "I was gonna see how well a junker pickup can do in the thorny Park off roading. Might be good ta coincide it with yer horseplay if I need a pickup outta a mud pit or somethin'. Just sayin'."

Circe did not get the sword measuring going on between the men. Sure she understood that it was an elegant weapon or such. She sips her water as she tunes out the conversation until Reed asks her about the Asylum. A better topic then the swords as far as she was concerned. "A bit. Privacy is big there, boys and girls in tight outfits, both can help with my business deals," she frowns, "But membership fees are a lil' annoyin' fer my tastes," she quirks an eyebrow and ear, "Why Reeeed? Ya into roleplay?"

Blue lips part in a bigger smile as crimson eyes shine as Cei turns to what she feel is a greater topic of weapons. And what a fun question to ask. "I know plenty about guns Cei. I am sure, with the spare time, I could even build one," there is no hiding the prideful smile, "As fer suitable that depends on what yer lookin' ta do." She'd use videogame logic here. Oh that was good, "Think videogame logic, beating a Fort Night boss. Like, uh, Donkey Kong dude. Up close a pistol leaves one hand free fer a sword, fish, shield, wrench or whatever powerful melee ya got. Shotgun is nice too plus it works at mid range. Long range? Ya'd want a rifle. Maybe a bayonet on it if yer wantin' that melee bonus. Or BFG if ya want no challenge ta take down the Donkey Kong."

It was idiotic sounding but better then openly talking about guns sales in public. Though getting somebody the weapon they want for a videogame makes her sound like a electronic farmer or hacker. Well, she was the latter so no big deal.

"Meh," she shakes her head in the negative at Reed's joke, "Only if it's opposite day Reed. BFG wins."

Circe sips and then splutters out the water at the comment about Sonja. Such a topic change. "Cough oh ho ho cough ho ho ho! Ya boys have no idea!"
