* Gordo pulls out his tablet and starts scrolling around the map to see if there's anything aviation related he missed the first two times. * Nigel nods to Gordo. "Of course." Then chuckles to Montana. "Nah? not that week, anyway." <@Brett> [Gordo discovers a gallery devoted to early 20th century aviation. * Gordo stands up. "Finally, found something worth looking at!" * Sonia stretches and yawns as she comes around a corner. She is dressed in a white blouse and slacks and adjusts non-mirrored shades for once. As she closes she murmurs, "Wonder why she put us here." <@Brett> ( 'Cause if I was in France and I wanted to do something fun, I'd go here :P ) Mystry to me, but if nobody has any objections, they've a room full of airplanes I'd rather be taking pictures of. Sure, why not. I'll distract anyone out to stop ya. * Gordo checks the map again and heads out one of the doors. "Yer a good man." * Sonia snorts and says, "Man, sure." She walks over near Montana and murmurs, "Guess it's no good predicting a crazy woman." * Shiho stands up without looking up and follows Gordo. * Montana replies to Sonia, "No shit. At least there's some nice stuff to see here." Hard to think 'bout that, boy. * Montana shrugs. "Yeah, guess so." <@Brett> [You pass a marble sculpture of Batman as you head out of the gallery and to the airplanes, which are actually in a room that's part of a WW1 and 2 era technology exhibit.] * Gordo gravatates twords the WW1 stuff. Dope covered fabric wings for him! <@Brett> ( So yeah, I prob won't be doing much this session. Feel free to wander off or go bowling or miming or something. ) (Miming? XP) (Bowling for Mimes?) <@Brett> ( Well it's France ) (Gordo's looking at plane things. If we go somewhere else, we'd need to have a time skip.) (I think the original plan was to pubcrawl Paris, but with Aysha still in the city, we needed to be somewhat sober.) * Sonia licks her lips and adds, "Now that she's finally upfront 'bout the job she wants, none of it makes sense." Yeah. But it's so crazy I'm pretty sure she's tellin' the truth. (Ha, yeah. The original plan was to wait until Alysha left the city, then get ridiculously drunk together. XD) * Sonia frowns and looks over to Montana. "I ain't. Oldest scam in the book, even if she ain't crazy." Sure, but if she's scamming us, I don't got a clue why. * Gordo bemoans his lack of a real camera, but is buisy taking pictures of fittings and rigging, and other small detailes. * Sonia shrugs. "Somethin' crazy." She sighs a little. "And here I thought I was just signing on for somethin' stable." * Montana rubs at the back of his head. "Yeeeeah, guess that's a bit of a disappointment." Pause. "Could be with worse company, though." <@Brett> ( You could be with MMO. :O ) (But I don't wanna play Nullsun!) ( But Nullsun was awesome! So, so totally awesome! But you should be playing Legend of Questing 2, now anyway!) * Sonia snorts and says, lowly, "Thanks." She rubs her shoulder. "I just figure if shit's so goddamn important, you shouldn't fuck 'round so much." * Montana sighs. "Yeah." He looks around, then meanders towards wherever Shiho sat, still reading her phone (no doubt). "Maybe once Gordo's done, we should split." Yeah? Not like we can get a jump on gettin' shit done. * Brett2 (samurai@wsip-72-204-242-149.dc.dc.cox.net) has joined #mc5 Yeah, well, most of us ain't interested in lookin' at art anyhow. Might as well find somethin' else to look at. ( :x ) * @Brett (samurai@wsip-72-204-242-149.dc.dc.cox.net) Quit (Ping timeout) * Sonia pauses a moment, then murmurs, "I laid down some feelers 'bout that missin' wizard or whatever at least." /me is currently having a quite debate with himself about if the Bleriot reproduction has the right wheels on it. * Montana blinks, then looks at Sonia. "Yeah?" * Brett2 is now known as Brett * ChanServ sets mode: +o Brett * Sonia shrugs, "What, 'm I gonna leave it to Nigel? He'll get it by owl or something in a month." * Shiho is adeptly following Gordo around while avoiding exhibits and other people without ever looking up from her phone. * Gordo would totally ask how she's doing that if he had any attention to spare to notice. * Nigel looks back from the painting he was looking at. "Owls would be incredibly inefficient. We deliver mail via dragon now. Their carrying capacity is much higher." * Sonia snorts. "Should try light sometime. Does a good job for the rest of us simple folk." * @Brett (samurai@wsip-72-204-242-149.dc.dc.cox.net) Quit (Read error: Connection reset by peer) (Nigel is so deadpan and British) (He's Britishing about) * Brett (samurai@wsip-72-204-242-149.dc.dc.cox.net) has joined #mc5 * ChanServ sets mode: +o Brett * Nigel chuckles. S'all I can do, though. I, uh, don't got anyone over in HK that'll have a polite conversation 'bout the place. * Montana nods. I'd be still gettin' over the idea that wizards are real if it weren't for all of the other shit. * Sonia smirks. "What, that undead zombie guy's real but no wizards?" That's part of the other shit. * Gordo takes more pictures and is starting to run out of first world war era things. * Sonia shakes her head. "Such a simple boy, who likes such pretty things." * Montana glances at Gordo. "For once, I don't think you're talkin' 'bout me." * Sonia follows Montana's eyes and laughs very slightly. "Well, at least he respects metal and grease." <@Brett> ( ping? ) (Pong) (pong) (Thinking we should move to another setting so people will be more involved. ^^;) (Alright) * Gordo takes one last look around for anything of particular interest. "Alright Shiho, yer turn to pick something. Doen't even have ta be in here." * Shiho looks up, startled. "Wha- what? Where- wait, weren't we in a different wing?" Ye followed me all the way here and didn' notice that? * Shiho sounds honestly bewildered as she says, "I... I guess I was distracted?" Ya guess? What were you even lookin' at? * Gordo whistles, impressed. Just some of the new summer collections, but I've been having trouble concentrating- anyway. It's my turn to pick? Well, it's more that I picked, an thought you were the quitest and most bored like. Yeah. No take-backs. Somewhere in this stupidly large museum is a section dedicated to fashion and textiles. Or maybe that's -near- the Louvre... Ain't that most everywhere around here, girl? * Gordo snorts. "Fasion and textile a what centry you looking for? They've probably all of them." * Shiho flicks the screen around on her phone for a moment before sighing. "Nevermind, it's outside the Louvre proper." To Sonia, "I'm not the one that picked this place." Then let's go out and see it. Nah, that was crazy legs. So very crazy. And yet she pays so well. I'm as much as done in here. Okay, it's at... one-oh-seven rue de Rivoli. Whatever that is. * Gordo pulls out his table and mapping app. "Rue de what?" Rivoli. Rivoli. I might be saying it wrong, the only vaguely European language I know is English. <@Brett> ( And after you can go to the rue de Ravioli for lunch. ) (How close is Shiho to pronouncing it? Because like Nigel could or could not correct her) * Gordo types it in. "Sounds Italian ta me. I blame the Romans." He tilts his head for a moment and then holds up his tablet for Shiho to see. "This the place?" (Well, she's saying it with an American accent, so probably poorly.) Yes! (WE DID IT. CRACK TEAM OF THING FINDERS.) * Retrieving #mc5 modes... * Gordo turns the table to face himself and points at a wall. "We want ta go that way, but.." He points at a different wall. "The nearest door that hasn't a klaxon is over there." (I'm getting my money's worth out of those points in navigation.) Yeah, people are pesky like that. * Montana heads towards the door out, then! * Sonia sighs and starts walking. * Nigel nods and follows. * Gordo leads. * Shiho follows, looking considerably more cheerful. <@Brett> [It takes you 3 days to get to the exit. You then make your way to the rue de Rivoli.] * Shiho finds her way to the Fashion and Textiles building of Les Arts Décoratifs with an uncanny ability to sense fashion-related things. * Sonia follows along, looking idly. "Even when I get to change my look, it usually ain't about standing out too much." * Montana hehs. "Most people ain't changin' their look for the reason you do, darlin'." Yeah. * Sonia looks at her hand idly, then balls it into a fist. "Kinda like a superstition. Ya keep changin', and nobody'll find you, and you never know if it's workin' or not." <@Brett> [Not knowing anything about art, I'll just say that the fashion features ranges from the Chinese-style silk clothing that was popular 20 years ago to the modern day one-legged pants. <@Brett> ] <@Brett> ( About fashion. I know plenty about art. >.> ) (Only the past twenty years? :o) <@Brett> ( Beats me. Is this fashion history or just fashion? :P ) (It's a whole building in a museum, soooo probably yes. XD) <@Brett> [In that case.... We haven't really done fashion in previous MCs, to time to make stuff up!] (In MC1's time leather jackets were very, very popular!) (leather jackets never go out of style) <@Brett> ( True! ) <@Brett> ( Also true! ) * Shiho enjoys the museum, regardless of the time period whatever she's looking at covers. * Gordo shrugs. "Here's hoping that this never goes far en..." He trails off and shakes his head. "Need ta stop and remind m'self that we were in Hell day 'for yesterday." <@Brett> [One exhibit shows how in the 2030s French guys liked to wear shorts with trenchcoats.] Yeah, that went pretty well for hell. Don't know what all those religious guys were talking about. Session Close: Fri Oct 18 22:44:05 2013 Session Start: Fri Oct 18 22:44:05 2013 Session Ident: #mc5 * Disconnected * Attempting to rejoin channel #mc5 * Rejoined channel #mc5 * Topic is 'MC5 Channel' * Set by Brett on Fri May 18 19:58:44 * Nigel looks over a late 21st century french style that involves upside down hoop skirts and brightly colored plaid stockings and shakes his head. "What were they thinking?" They wern't. S'all I've ta say. Goin' with boredom. * Montana looks over. "Must've been a tough time," he deadpans. <@Brett> [Apparently, in the 2040s, hip-less pants were a thing among French women. <@Brett> \ <@Brett> ] (That seems like a legitimate style.) <@Brett> ( How so? o.o ) Oh, that's neat. Thinkin' it should have a comeback? (It shows off one of the big feminine-defining zones?) (Isn't that the standard non-stadanrd hakima wearer in anime style?) Hm, maybe? I doubt it will, though. If the style didn't spread out of -Paris-... <@Brett> ( Maybe in MC6 ) Somebod'd have ta start it. (I am not able to visualize a hipless hakama.) * Sonia waves idly. "Could go with all the legless stuff and bodysuits." <@Brett> [In the late 2070s, Frenchmen wore extremely tight shirts with about 16 buttons.] ( http://animetrip.net/wallpapers/2e/dc/Kan-girl-kan-u-unchou-ikkitousen-long-hair-hakama-shiozaki-yuji_941b4.jpg ) (yeah that's not a hakima, that's a giftwrapped vagina) (Don't all hakama have slits there? The coat/shirt is usually long enough to cover the holes so that you don't show skin.) <@Brett> [In the 2050s, thin, straight, pointed mustaches were popular.] (Yes.) <@Brett> ( That's exactly right ) * Nigel nods. "Well Parisians would probably tell you that Paris is the only place that matters when it comes to fashion." (Always a good time when Dali comes back into style) <@Brett> [In the 2030s, Frenchmen wore a type of four-lens "flippable" glasses, one set for near-sightedness, the other for far-sightedness.] (Sorry, I have to go! My roommate is drunk and feels unsafe walking home, so I need to go pick her up.) <@Brett> ( o.O ) (See you guys next week!) (Strong choice!) (Okay, that's important. o_o) <@Brett> ( Later ) (Good luck) <@Brett> Man, I'm glad I don't drink ._. (GOD DOES NOT DRINK) (we are all glad too) (Good luck! Thank you for being awesome and responsible!) (Should be fine, it's just late and she's drunk and female, so... auto-unsafe to walk around.) * Retrieving #mc5 modes... (Haha thanks, bye!) * Shiho (Wingdance@cpe-74-72-125-40.nyc.res.rr.com) Quit (Quit: ~ Trillian Astra - www.trillian.im ~) (I Assume your OOC statement was an implication of session end as well?) <@Brett> ( Not necessarily. Up to you guys ) (On the one hand, I think we need down time in game. On the other hand, it's hard to do everything they probably want in an art museum with Alysha still in the city. And on the third, WHY AM I TIRED ALREADY.) (Although we did just lose the reason we were here.) (tired like a fox) (bam) (What does the tired fox say?) <@Brett> ( You don't have to stay at the Museum :P ) (I don't know what more downtime could be used to express, though, I got a lot of it out on a high level here, so!) (Yeah, I think maybe calling it. :/) (Calling it is fine. Especially since Shiho was pretty involved here) <@Brett> [END]
