I'd say this is pretty unusual. One minute I'm kicking around the old distillery, the next I'm... wherever you said this place is. Where'd you say, again?

None of my business. Right.

Don't get me wrong, I'm flattered by all of this attention, but don't you got other things you should be doing? If you're as busy as you say you are, you oughtta get to work. Time waits for no man. Or woman. Whatever it is they say.

Besides, you don't need to worry about me; I ain't a difficult customer. I can keep myself plenty entertained. Might even turn a quick profit, I find the way in. And don't I always?

I've got a knack for survival, after all.

Did I mention that if you end up in a place like that, you tend to run into people from the future? That's out of the ordinary.

[byanyname]

All right, all right. So maybe it is different. Still, all comes down to finding a way to do business, don't it? With present people, past people, future people, whoever. Maybe me and myself'll end up doing business with our grandfather, ehheh.

[recognize_an_opportunity]

Sure, it's all about business. And in some places, business is better than others. Hopefully you'll be lucky enough to end up in one of the better places, if you end up anywhere at all.

[byanyname]

Mm. I get the feeling I might just be stuck around here for a while. Anyway, no sense worryin' about what ain't happened yet. Seems like there's enough to look into as is.

[recognize_an_opportunity]

There is. And I have no doubt in your ability to entertain yourself.

[byanyname]

Ain't you a sweetheart?

Listen, you hear anyone's looking to get into the trade, you let me know, all right?

[recognize_an_opportunity]

Sure, I'll keep that in mind. I'd say good luck, but you probably don't need it.

[byanyname]

Ehhheh, you got that right. You can have it. And watch out for cats.

[recognize_an_opportunity]

I'll keep that in mind. See you around.

Ciao, Mister Meyer.


((ooc-ps meyer is lovely, and i want to give him a cookie now.))

[recognize_an_opportunity]

((OOC: Well, he quite loves cookies -- and all sweet things -- so he'd probably appreciate that. And you have no idea how excited I was to see Mickey. I may have made a ridiculous giggling noise.))

[byanyname]

((then cookies he shall have. :D probably not baked by mickey because that'd be a disaster and a half. and if mickey could get the whole world to start giggling, he'd be a pretty happy camper, yep.))

[recognize_an_opportunity]

((Mickey would put drugs in the cookies and I just know it. And although I'm not sure Meyer is physically capable of giggling -- or having fun -- I certainly am. And holy crap season 4 starts next week.))

[byanyname]

((he absolutely would. and possibly see if he could get anyone to pay for a glimpse of drugged-up meyer. he might even split the profits if you put a gun to his head. at the very least, it might give poor, funless meyer a taste of sunshine. AND YES season four; need to find me a way to watch it, though worst case, tumblr'll tell everything, anyway. oh, tumblr. oh, season four. SO MUCH DRAMA IN NY ughyes.))

[recognize_an_opportunity]

((Drugged-up Meyer has happened in... both games that I have him in. Clearly I hate him. Then again, I also play Jimmy in a game, so apparently I just have a thing for characters who suck at having fun. HOPEFULLY someone will have season 4 streaming somewhere. The drama in NY is going to be delicious.))

[byanyname]

((pfff, you just want to expose li'l lansky to fresh experiences. the fact that you've a jimmy is also quite excellent; the more serious-face running around, the merrier? or something. but yes, all the drama must be had. oh, rothstein. oh no.))

[trenchknives]

((No, see, it's different; with Jimmy, it's pouty (yeah, I had to switch journals just to say that, I'm ridiculous, I know.) Well, I can pretty much guarantee that whatever drama goes down, Mickey will be right in the middle of it, yet magically staying safe and alive. At least, I hope so.))

[byanyname]

((jimmy DOES have an astonishing talent for pouting... and mickey twitched a little - maybe more than a little - at the sight of jimmy-journal, fyi. and god yes. if mickey loses his cockroachesque ability to stay alive, i'll throw the television out the window. fine so that's a little overdramatic but you get the idea.))

[recognize_an_opportunity]

((Awwwh, here Mickey, have totally-not-creepy-at-all Meyer instead. He, at least, doesn't have as much of a penchant for flinging people off of balconies. Although the previews do make it look as though he has a penchant for headbutting people in alleyways, so who even knows anymore. I don't think they can kill off Mickey. It would be so wrong.))

[byanyname]

((breathin' easy again; good. ;) and mickey'll take care to watch himself in alleys. if ever he sees a meyer with a distressing smile, he'll turn and run for it. survival instincts, engage! a dead mickey would be like an eternally calm van alden or a gillian who doesn't make questionable - if often fascinating - decisions; just doesn't work with reality.))

[recognize_an_opportunity]

(There is nothing at all distressing about this smile shhhhh just come into this here convenient alleyway. Yes, like an eternally calm Van Alden or a reasonable Gillian... or a Nucky I don't want to punch in the face a lot of the time. Whoops, did I just say that?))

[byanyname]

((how about you eat a cookie first, okay? and you might want to be careful what you say about nucky; word on the street is he's a regular badass now. shoot you soon as look at you. then mope and find another showgirl to claim and sigh about his absent wife and damn, nucky, sometimes it's like you're un-learning most everything.))

[recognize_an_opportunity]

((Dammit, being easily distracted with cookies is such a failing. And after he sighs about his absent wife, maybe he can go try to give her some money to come back, because buying off his problems has always worked out so well for him in the past. If you can't solve a problem with your words and your action, throw a hunk of cash at it!))

[byanyname]

((sure is a useful failing. mickey might need to learn how to bake, after all. (then forget there're drugs in the cookies and eat one, oops.) and yeah, i mean, it's not like the money MEANS anything; just be chill about it, just take it, there can't possibly be anything amiss here nope.))

[recognize_an_opportunity]

((Is... is it wrong that I now want to see a drugged up Mickey? Is that a bad thing? Because if it is, I guess I'll just have to be a terrible person forever.))
