[OOM] Izabora - Total Immersion Virtual Reality Program: Age of Ooze. The Garden of New Beginnings.

[stuck_mynock]

When Atton opens his eyes, he hasn't got his sword, and he's wearing a wide-brimmed hat, a billowing coat, and a whole lot of black.

Thoughtfully: "Huh."

They're in a garden of some sort, filled with statues, fountains, and plants, with a forest and a massive city in the distance. A lot of people are milling around, all in dress from a variety of different time periods.

Atton thinks about this, a moment.

"Huh."

There is a long pause whilst Guppy attempts to recalibrate his brain, and fails.

"I spend half my life trying to block out all that shit." he says. "So I may be mistaken. But in any case, I mean the dreams thing."

"That was magical, though. It'll be fine. I suppose being careful can't hurt, though. Maybe we should just leave them be?" Nodding at the distant players.

"We'll walk by 'em, can just see what 'appens."

[guppy_sandhu]

Guppy nods, giving Atton a small approving smile at his unusual agreed caution.

[stuck-mynock.livejournal.com]

"Maybe we could swagger. I do a good swagger. Guppy is very swaggery."

[will_scarlett]

"Aye, best way to go just see what 'appens."

[guppy_sandhu]

"I'm not sure I know how to swagger." Guppy says, swaggering.

[stuck-mynock.livejournal.com]

"Then you should try harder! More swaggering, Guppy, more."

[will_scarlett]

Will just grins,

"Think ye've got it, Guppy."

[guppy_sandhu]

"This is probably a contributer to arthritis." Guppy says.

[stuck-mynock.livejournal.com]

"Arthritis is lots of fun," Atton says, gravely.

[will_scarlett]

"Dinna 'ave a clue what that is."

[guppy_sandhu]

"Achy joints in old age."

[stuck-mynock.livejournal.com]

"Guppy is old. Old Guppy."

[will_scarlett]

"No, 'e's na."

[guppy_sandhu]

"Not yet!" Guppy says. "Nearly thirty isn't old."

[stuck-mynock.livejournal.com]

"Old at heart."

[will_scarlett]

Will just grins,

"'e's na that old an lots o'this desert."

[guppy_sandhu]

Guppy flips the bird at Atton.

"You're older than me anyway. I'm just more mature."

[stuck-mynock.livejournal.com]

"I am very mature."

As they pass the other group of players, Atton waves at them.

"Lol haxx," one says, before continuing on.

Atton looks sad.
"People keep saying that."

[will_scarlett]

"Doesna make any sense an they sound like they're drunk."

[guppy_sandhu]

"I think they're speaking in text." Guppy says. "It's a sort of regional dialect."

He calls after them. "Lulz we r cool, don't go dissin us innit."

[stuck-mynock.livejournal.com]

The players consider this.

"Lolosaur," one of them says, helpfully.

[will_scarlett]

Will just keeps looking at them with confusion.

[guppy_sandhu]

Guppy makes a 'wicked' sign at the other players.
