Muse-testing for zodion. ANYBODY KNOW THIS GUY...

[arollingstone]

I s'pose I can cut a bit of a mysterious figure, but believe me when I say it comes from a place of caring that you're going kinda overboard. The board has been jumped. Your wet up to your thighs in little details, chiquita banana. Like, c'mon, does it really matter how long I've had these here head fuzzies?

Nahhhh, it don't.

Today's a pretty auspicious day, so I hear. Rumor has a pretty cool guy decided the world was so nice he had to see it twice. Sounds like someone you could take a cue from, get my meaning?

...

I'm tellin' you to get out more.

Comments

you asked, i deliver. PLUS I KNOW HIM.

[dressup]

C-Chiquita banana?

HUZZAH

[arollingstone]

Ain't you ever heard that old jingle? [Brace yourself for some of TJ's choice songsmithing. By which I mean cover your ears.] I'm chiquita banana and I'm...here to say...bananas have to ripen in a certain way...

[These hands? These are not hands. These are CASTANETS. Or crab claws. His pantomime isn't the best.]

...It went something like that, anyway.

[dressup]

[okay you got her laughing.]

I never heard of it, but it sounds silly! [due to her timeline, she is probably way before TJ's definition of "old".]

[arollingstone]

[THAT'S putting it mildly. Still. Even an old fashioned little girl laugh comes at the same value of a modern one. Color TJ pleased.]

Silly? That's some top drawer musical craftsmenship right there! Informative and catchy. Throw in a banana in a slinky get up and there ain't much else you need.

An' speaking of get ups, nice threads.

[dressup]

[It's a good thing that her mind is very open to everything.]

It's still a bit silly, but I will believe you that it's a good song!

And thank you! Miss Nina makes most of my dresses. She's really good at making clothes!

[arollingstone]

Miss Nina, huh? She your maid or something? Not to put you in a box blondie, but you look like the kinda girl who's got a maid. Not that I'm judgin'.

[dressup]

No worries! She's my tailor. My maid's name is Paula.

[arollingstone]

A tailor, a Paula...shit, I know where I'm lookin' next time I need work. Got any openings?

[uphold]

Is she really obsessing over your hairstyle of all things? Shouldn't she be more focused on, y'know... your inner thoughts and motivations and stuff?

[arollingstone]

Well, in the lady's defense, there isn't much there to comb through. I'm a simple enough guy. [Uh huh, right, sure.] Give me a fork, a slice of key lime, and I'm set.

...Maybe a little Cool Whip on top if you're feelin' generous.

[uphold]

Mmm that does sound good... [ Not as good as a steak dinner, but Chie can appreciate pie too! ] So you're a desserts guy? No main course?

[arollingstone]

[Well hey, don't pigeon hole him just yet, m'lady.] I'm an all-course kinda guy. Pie and puddin', burgers and fries, hashbrowns and pancakes and syrup an' bacon.

[A beat.] Guess you could say I'm partial to breakfast. Yourself?

[uphold]

[ That makes her smile.

And it also makes her hungry. ]

...My favorite food is steak. Filet mignon, steak croquettes... it doesn't matter. [ But. Uh. Remembering what she'd told everyone for the Miss Yasogami pageant-- ] Uh...! Pudding is pretty awesome, too, though! Haha...

[arollingstone]

[Shit, a lovely lady who loves red meat! Fine by him. TJ grins in trademark breezy approval.] Filet mignon, huh? That's the classy stuff right there. I've never had it. Heard it was like butter goin' down, though. Rumors true?

[uphold]

[ Hnnnnnnnngh. She licks her lips. Just a little. Uh. ] So true. The rarer the better! I can't believe you've never had it! I'll have to treat you some time.

[arollingstone]

Hold up, little lady. [TJ held up a hand, as if the words weren't enough.] If it's a meal we're plannin', I've got it. You just have to pick the place. Make sure we're getting the top shelf shit.

[uphold]

[ Now that the shadow event in Zodion is over, both she and her mun can start planning something that will make things a whole lot easier if and when she and TJ end up going out for a steak dinner. Also why does at least half her CR come from bonding over food... ]

I.... think I have a place in mind. We'll probably have to wait until you're in the game, though.

[arollingstone]

[That's all well and good as far as Teej is concerned. This is a man who can get behind a little meta flavor.]

I'm a patient man. Name's TJ.

[uphold]

[ Meta is the best steak seasoning. ]

Nice to meet ya, TJ, I'm Chie. Here's the part where we'd shake hands or something if we could, but, uh... you're patient so maybe later? Haha...

[arollingstone]

[TJ tilts his head. She's a little bony for his tastes, but girl has some intimidating legs muscles. Not much by way of a booty. Guess that's par for the course when it comes to asian girls, though. He can still get behind that.]

Lookin' forward to it, Cheeay.

[uphold]

[ She's... not about to get picky with the mispronunciation of her name. Not yet, anyway. He's obviously not Japanese, the fact that her name didn't go in one ear and out the other leaving only confusion behind is good enough for her. ]

The food or the handshake? Both, for me.

[ He's not exactly her type either, but whatever. Stuff happens in Zodion, sometimes. At any rate, they'll get along! (*_*) ]
