You've made it out of the prairie and underbrush, congratulations! But with the lack of supplies from the journey around Alderwood has left you beat. Your horses hate you, you've got sand up in places where it's not welcome, you're hungry, cranky, and if you've been riding you'll be walking like Dean for a little bit. Lucky enough for you, the next town isn't much of a detour, so you can restock, trade, and try not to burn anything down.

[Mission: Stock up, let the horses rest, treat your cholera, etc]

[cabineyes]

And what about you, dear sister?

[ scoots over to her, he'll hold the glass while she pours. ]

What's your biggest achievement?

[andtrue]

[ the three of them half-drunkenly robbing the market sounds like a great idea! ]

Something better than sapphires?

[crotchbite]

[ she could pull it off.

sets down the bottle and brushes some dirt off her knee ]

All my achievements were great. [ dismissive handwave ] I was very good at my job.

[cabineyes]

But nothing that stands out especially?

There must have been something.

[ leans back, feeling bubbly and drunk inside. it's good. ]

[andtrue]

[ tips the bottle back to get the last drops out ]

If that job didn't involve raiding tombs or killing zombies, I know I'll be disappointed.

[crotchbite]

You really wouldn't understand. [ pats killian's leg and brings out yet another bottle because her biggest achievement is not for either of these two. fuck this, she's getting hammered with the two hairiest guys of the bunch

hit rock bottom ]

You'll be disappointed, then. There was none of this magic bullshit in my world. It was all very normal. With guns and cars. [ dreamy sigh. she misses those. ]

[cabineyes]

[ you keep mentioning those. cars. ]

Normal to you perhaps.

[ pushes his hair back and finally slumps down on the wagon floor. it could be worse, hel, at least they know how to drink and not start getting all handsy over her. ]

Well, for each their own I suppose.

[andtrue]

What I'd give for a world like that!

[ he'll give the guns a pass, but no magic and cars? yes. sounds good. sounds great, even. time to change the subject before he gets asked to pinpoint some special event. ]

And I don't want to alarm anybody, but this is running out faster than we can drink it.

[crotchbite]

[ they're not getting handsy because everyone knows she'd break their hands. ]

Better than horses. I'll leave the bowlegs to Dean. [ looks over to august ] I thought you had said that if you can remember it, it's not fun.

[cabineyes]

That's what I heard too so be a mate and open that, will you.

[ tosses him a new bottle. they're going for a record now. ]

[andtrue]

[ pulls the cork out with his teeth and takes the first drink before wiping it on his sleeve and passing it on. what a perfect gentleman. ]

I usually wake up next to a beautiful girl or three on nights like that. [ pauses. ] Not that you don't fit the criteria, but-- you know what I'm saying, right?

[ waking up next to a beautiful woman you didn't get to sleep with just isn't as satisfying. ]

[crotchbite]

[ pours some in the glass and laughs at august, cheeky smirk ] No, I get it. Me too.

[ rubs her forehead and takes another sip, licking her lips ]

There's always the hookers around here.

[cabineyes]

[ fits the criteria thanks august. rolls to his side to give hel a Look. ]

Oh? Is that a proposition, my dear?

[idontknowthepassword]

[ one of the hookers around here ]

[andtrue]

[ laughs and almost chokes on his drink. eyebrows of oh i see in hel's direction. ]

I think you misunderstood me, Captain.

[crotchbite]

[ no thx hooker.

watches hook roll like a dog and purses her lips a little. not her type, hook. sorry about the choking tho. she's never been subtle about it

sets down the glass, resting comfortably against some blankets, rubbing her neck tiredly. the hangover is going to be great ]

[cabineyes]

[ yeah no. you can share that one. ]

Maybe some other time, love.

[ pushes himself back up to a sitting position so he doesn't choke on his spit when he laughs. ]

How about another song about the canyons, bard? Think you could manage that much?

[andtrue]

Maybe. [ oh but it'll be different this time. hel might know the song. ] But it's going to be more Sinatra.

[crotchbite]

[ oh god drunk singing. she can't endorse this but she's too drunk to stop it.

go on little hand gesture ]

[cabineyes]

He has quite a lovely voice even if he doesn't look like it.

[ go for it august. he'll join in on the chorus. ]

[andtrue]

[ here we go ]

Just a melancholy echo ling'ring when the day is through, it's the caaaaaaall of the canyon, once again I'm dreaming of you.
Every night I search the moonlight up and down the river shore...

[ line ]

[crotchbite]

[




n
not gonna laugh ]





[ she's laughing it's the alcohol i'm sorry. ]

[cabineyes]

[ almost spits his drink but manages to swallow so he can join in. it's like drinking rum with his incompetent crew and singing jolly songs. ]

It's the caaalll of the canyon, maybe I will find you once more.

[andtrue]

[ now he has to laugh, too ]

... All right, I can't take any more. My sides will split.

[crotchbite]

[ snorts and leans back more against the blankets, rubbing her eyes tiredly

she gon be out and not remember shit tomorrow morning bye ]
