[video/action] 253 - & devil's compass mingle
[The Devil's Compass is no longer littered with candles, save perhaps a few on the bar that add a little something to the dim lighting that recreates the old-world style of tavern the place is modeled after. It's actually quite clean otherwise, with Tyki lounging in one of the booths with a bent knee up on the seat and the camera looking at him sitting there with a cigarette drooping out of the corner of his mouth.]

If you haven't been to the Devil's Compass yet for the drink or my company, I'll give you two further incentives.

[Sidelong he reaches to crush out the cigarette, a plume of smoke coiling upward.]

One, there's fresh pie thanks to the lovely Charlotte.

[His eyes flick up to the camera with a dangerous glint while his lips curl.] Second, this week we've also got a barmaid. She doesn't bite but she might scratch.

[And so Tyki's bar is open as always but with a mingle! And for the next week Kitty Pryde (the elder) will be roped into being the Compass' barmaid due to a bet gone wrong. Tyki will be exceptionally cheerful about this, more often behind the bar than usual (which in itself is fairly often) at least while she's on the job. This means he'll be rather friendly and talkative. Best time to meet him, really. He'll have a thread right here.]

	Bored and lonely. It's a combination that tends to lend itself to this sort of place. What sort of bet? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	kitty_has_claws 2014-01-15 07:18 pm UTC (link)
	It involved the raptors. [Should she really be telling people in the light of day it was a bet to kill the most in ten minutes? He totally cheated too. She'll just push onward.] Wow, bored and lonely. Sounds enchanting. No one from home around? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	wraith_7 2014-01-17 02:32 pm UTC (link)
	What about them? Also, hypothetically, if a hypothetical cyborg wanted to capture one as a pet, where would he look? [He cannot let this idea go.] Would you really use that word to describe me? Enchanting? Aww. And no, not really, but I've only been here a few days and have yet to cultivate the brilliant and flourishing social life I'm sure is on its way. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

Any minute now. [She looks around as if to see the social life heading toward them.]

A hypothetical cyborg would go to sector 6 to look, but when everything is working correctly only we can go in and out of that sector. You couldn't even drag one through the border. And the bet included how many we could take out in a given time. [Which sounds awful and brutal in the cold light of day, but at the time...?]

	[He's sure its on its way.] That's so disappointing. The inability to capture one, I mean, not your lost bet, although that's disappointing, too. Who'd you lose to? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	kitty_has_claws 2014-01-18 04:38 pm UTC (link)
	The bar's proprietor. [She glances around to see him behind the bar and nods slightly in his direction.] Tyki Mikk. What would you do with a pet raptor anyway? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	wraith_7 2014-01-19 12:46 am UTC (link)
	What would you have gotten if you'd won? I think the question you should be asking is what wouldn't I do with a pet raptor. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

[She hesitates at that question. She asked for Tyki to stop messing with Reid if she won. That doesn't feel like information to give out lightly and it's hardly fun.] Something a lot better than a week of him serving as a barmaid.

And I'm hoping there are lots of things you wouldn't do with your pet raptor. Some things are sure to violate at least a few of the prison rules.

	Surely you've noticed by now that I'm lovingly eccentric. I really don't care about rule breaking. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	kitty_has_claws 2014-01-19 03:51 pm UTC (link)
	But you could get punished and then you might have to write and read a poem to the network. [She smirks a little. Some of the punishments are ridiculous.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	wraith_7 2014-01-20 03:11 am UTC (link)
	That's the sort of punishment they deal out here? That's phenomenal. I can respect that sort of creativity. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	kitty_has_claws 2014-01-20 07:12 am UTC (link)
	Sometimes. Sometimes you might get power dampening, house arrest, or solitary confinement. It seems to be randomized so any punishment could give you a big or little punishment. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	wraith_7 2014-01-20 12:56 pm UTC (link)
	Hmm. Well I'm always a fan of the unconventional. [He looks like he wants to punctuate that with a drink but remembers it is currently dripping off the table, so he settles for a change in subject instead.] So I'm guessing you're the Kitty I'm supposed to talk to about this Defense Force I keep hearing about? Unless there's more than one of you. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	kitty_has_claws 2014-01-21 05:28 am UTC (link)
	[That earns him a smirk.] As a matter of fact there are two of me here, but you happened to pick the one in charge. Interested in joining us or overthrowing us? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	wraith_7 2014-01-21 06:13 pm UTC (link)
	I always hate it when my absurd comments end up being true. It takes the fun out of it. And I hadn't given overthrowing any thought until now. It does sound like it could be fun, but if not I suppose joining would be a distant second best option. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	kitty_has_claws 2014-01-22 05:25 am UTC (link)
	Well, if you're set on the joining I guess I should tell you we have an interview process where we'll ask you things including your name if you want to give me a spoiler. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	wraith_7 2014-01-22 02:41 pm UTC (link)
	Ton Phanan and I can already guarantee one of the more entertaining interviews you'll ever have. Do you want qualifications or just a can-do attitude? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	kitty_has_claws 2014-01-23 01:14 am UTC (link)
	[She is already not doubting that.] Mostly just the qualifications. There are also skills tests. What sort of position are you interested in? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	wraith_7 2014-01-23 02:28 pm UTC (link)
	I'm the medical officer for the best commando squad in the galaxy. You haven't heard of us, that's the point. My hobbies include killing people, doctor things, killing people with medical supplies, and long walks on the beach. So whatever position that is. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	kitty_has_claws 2014-01-26 07:00 am UTC (link)
	Didn't think medical folks were supposed to do the killing so much as the saving. [Hearing killing called a hobby definitely rubbed her the wrong way.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	wraith_7 2014-01-26 12:17 pm UTC (link)
	What can I say? I came to the realization that I don't really care about stitching up people I don't know as much as I enjoy killing people I hate. You'd be surprised what a couple of pieces of cybernetics can do to a person's outlook. [A tone that is almost serious, which is surprising from him.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	kitty_has_claws 2014-01-28 04:09 am UTC (link)
	I know how an outlook gets changed. [She may look totally normal—passes for human even—but she's got plenty of scars on the inside and a few on the outside he just can't see with all that pesky clothing in the way. They aren't as bad as they should be though. Phasing is good at keeping a person intact...when you use it.] Who do you hate? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

The Empire, who don't seem to be represented here, so that's exciting. So you don't need to worry about me running around killing everything in sight; that isn't really how I do things anyway. But I'm good at combat, a good pilot, good doctor and excellent at coming up with weird yet successful plans. Ask about the Ewok sometime. Actually, no, you probably shouldn't.

	kitty_has_claws 2014-01-28 10:27 pm UTC (link)
	[She untenses a bit at that.] I think I might have to ask about the Ewok now. But first... What did this Empire do? [Her tone has floated down from suspicious and is hovering in neutral just over concerned.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

Let's just say its apparently a felony to wear them as swimsuits on some planets and leave it at that. As for the Empire we could go with the usual oppression worlds and nonhuman species, stripping of rights, that sort of thing or just go for the big ticket it and talk about the time they blew up an inhabited planet with billions of people on it. The Emperor died at Endor - where I picked up the facial accessory and the leg, incidentally so I don't actually remember it - but a lot of warlords and rogue admirals have popped up since then so that's who the Wraiths go after. We are currently convincingly disguised as a band of pirates in a particularly cunning infiltration scheme. It's pretty fun.
