Hey there, stranger.

Okay, now that we've gotten reacquainted let's talk business; and by "business" I mean that nightmare island you're thinking of sending me to. See, when I think of islands I picture palm trees, sunsets, fat guys squeezed into speedos. But that? That's sick.

At least you're not sending me there unarmed. Small favors, right?

Can't believe I'm actually saying this, but that island's not the worst place you could end up.

[heyloudgirl]

I dare you to name someplace worse.

[ex_heromode965]

Believe it or not, it's a little less chaotic than home for some of us.

[heyloudgirl]

Didn't you guys have a zombie outbreak recently? Seems exactly like home to me.

Not so bad. Some ok people there. Sometimes it is safe during the day.

I'm still not sold on the idea.

[goodjumper]

No choice. Just do what you can to live.

[heyloudgirl]

I've got plenty of experience in that. Sounds like you do, too.

Yea, helps here. So bad becomes good?

[thisonetime]

Ro! Y'all get to keep your gun? It don't shoot paint or nothin' now, does it?

[heyloudgirl]

Nope, good ol' reliable lead. Where I'm going I've got things to kill, not annoy.

[thisonetime]

That's good. All I got's paint where I'm at. They did somethin' funny t'my gun. But my bat still works fine! S'hard to mess one'a them up.

But there was this time my buddy Keith, he wrecked one so bad he got splinters from it, like everywhere, and I mean that. His arms, his legs, hands, feet, the back'a his head... he was pickin' those suckers out for damn near a month straight!

[heyloudgirl]

Baseball game gone awry? [ No, Rochelle, don't encourage him. ]

[thisonetime]

[Yeees, Rochelle, indulge his rambling!]

Y'all'd think so, but naw! He was tryin'a use it like a batterin' ram, cause his shed got locked from th'inside, and there weren't no lock t'pick or anything. He strapped like three of 'em together, started bashin' on what he thought wassis weak bit, only it wasn't so weak as he thought. Bat just exploded on 'im.

Anna worst part is, shed didn't get a damn scratch on it! Dave hadda take a saw to it a couple days later.

fffhahaha! your ellis is great!

[heyloudgirl]

[ internal facepalm ] I had to ask.

Level with me, Ellis: did you guys ever just hang out and have a couple of beers like normal people?

oh i'm glad you like :> you play a great rochelle yourself!

[thisonetime]

Well, yeah, a'course. What'd y'all think we do, when Keith's all laid up like that?

thanks :D

[heyloudgirl]

Honestly, I didn't think you'd let that get in your way.

[thisonetime]

Aw, c'mon, Ro. That's just reckless.

[Irony? What irony?]

[heyloudgirl]

So, you do know the meaning of that word. [ She's teasing, mostly. ]

Speaking of which, where are you that you're shooting paintball guns, and is it anywhere near a roller coaster?

[thisonetime]

S'a castle, I think, only they're callin' it a keep. Holloway's Keep, I hear.

[And then Ellis sounds a little dejected.]

But there ain't no roller coasters here. They don't even got a blender in the kitchen!
