Video || Day 419

[everysecond]

[Hello, Asgard. This is Riley here and she is sitting on the kitchen counter in the house she lives in with the rest of the people from her world. Currently, she's snacking on a cupcake, clearly enjoying her sweet treat.]

Okay so, I've been here a few days and I think it's time I introduced myself. I'm Riley and I come from Ellie's world. You know, fucked up zombie apocalypse with more squishy mushroom people and less rawr braaaaains. [Yes, she even made a scary face just for that. Okay, back on topic after a lick of frosting.]

So, some of you know my girl Ellie. Still, not the point of this.

Alright, I want you all to tell me your favorite alcoholic drink. Or drinks. I'll allow a top three if you're really too lame to pick one. And if you're too much of a pussy to have tasted alcohol then you should tell me your most embarrassing story instead.

Got it? Cool, give me the best you got.

[She'll just wait here.]

I don't suppose anyone told you about the bar?

[Kara can't really talk. She was probably not much better at Riley's age after all. Really. Plus she has already been told there aren't really any hard age limits for drinking in Asgard as there might be back home. Besides, she knows regardless the kid will likely get her hands on something to drink anyway.]

As far as favourites? I don't have any in particular. Just anything with alcohol. Strong alcohol.

[everysecond]

Nope. But they probably took one look at me and went "nope" so that's likely why.

[Strong is not specific but she gets it.]

I like some of the strong shit too. At least what I've been able to try.

[wontbeforgotten]

Why would they? As far as I know there isn't a legal age for drinking here.

[Kara tilts her head, considering the girl for a moment.]

I could probably get you some if you wanted. Or could meet you at the bar if you wanted to get out and drink. Just pace yourself with it. I have far too many stories of when I got drunk and got into fights. It's kind of how I got my callsign, actually.

[everysecond]

Because lots of people are dumbasses.

[And overprotective. It means the same thing, right?]

I'm not overly big on getting drunk a lot. It fucks with my senses and I might throw shit with my mind. But I won't say no to getting some.

What's your callsign, by the way?

[wontbeforgotten]

This is true. A lot of people are.

[There's a nod. Kara only wishes she had half as much sense about drinking. It may have started out as one or two initially. But these days.....it's usually only in excess to numb herself for a while.]

Yeah. I know enough to not attempt to fly if I've been drinking. Anything in particular you like for me to get?

It's 'Starbuck'.

[everysecond]

I do like the hard stuff. So any of that would be pretty awesome.

[She has to frown here though.]

Not sure I get how you got to be called that though.

[wontbeforgotten]

Right. I could always spare a bottle if you wanted. Just tell me when and where to meet you.

As for the callsign, it was after I was sent to the brig for the first time for striking a superior officer or something like that. I think. Anyway, it was the whole 'bucking authority' thing or whatever. It was years back now, before the Cylons came back and things went to shit. Not that anyone calls me Starbuck here.

[everysecond]

[She tells her where to go for her room back in Loki. Much as she appreciates the alcohol, she's not inviting people to where her people are just yet.]

Cool. I like it. I don't have any cool nicknames personally. I mostly just have "fucking brat" for my title.

[wontbeforgotten]

Got it. I'll bring it along.


Ha. It's not the worst title. Trust me. I named a nugget 'Hotdog' back home.

[everysecond]

You're awesome. Thanks.

I'm making a mental note to get myself an awesome title here.

[wontbeforgotten]

Sure. No worries. And good luck with that, kid.

[everysecond]

My luck is generally pretty fucking good so I think I'm covered.

[wontbeforgotten]

Heh. Right. I'm sure you do. Just hope yours isn't as lame as Hotdog.

[everysecond]

I refuse to accept anything that isn't badass.

[wontbeforgotten]

So you should. I'm sure people who know you better than me will come up with something.

[everysecond]

I accept this mission. Get a badass name.
