[video/action for anyone ever]
[ GOOD EVENING, MARSHALL STREET. YOUR LOBBY HAS BEEN TURNED INTO A WILD WEST SALOON BY AMERICA AND MIRIA. Perhaps an elaboration is in order.
If anyone in the complex cares to come down and figure out what all the ruckus (get it? Baccano, ruckus, shush it's funny) is about, you'll find that America and Miria have gotten it in their minds that there should be a saloon in Discedo. It's 1881 for America, and Miria is... Miria. This makes sense to them. This does not make sense to anyone else. That is okay. This is normal. So what does this all entail, exactly? Let's find out:
→ Chairs and tables of a wide variety; most likely stolen or robbed (at complete random, though hey, it might be yours. YOU'LL GET IT BACK... EVENTUALLY.)
→ Likewise for cups, glasses, and any vaguely Western decorations
→ Discedo Red Eye. The normal stuff is made from alcohol, chewing tobacco, and burnt sugar. Do you really want to know what's in the knock off? Either way, it tastes like the fires of hell.
→ Poker chips and cards. By that I mean checkerboard pieces/wood chips/whathaveyou labeled like poker chips, and whatever cards America could find. Have fun trying to win a game with this deck.
→ Banjo tied up in the corner. America stole a cow like the outlaw he is. Too bad it's his own. No one ever said he was good at this.
→ An out-of-tune piano that once belonged to Austria forever and a day ago. Why I remember this, no one knows.
For the record, America's dressed in a cowboy outfit left over from the last time Isaac left, Isaac himself is in similar (though probably fancier) attire, while Miria wears something pretty. This is Discedo and they're both still dirty but WHATEVER. IT ADDS TO THE AUTHENTICITY. The two citizens are in the background setting up the last details while America beams into the camera. ]
THE SALOON IS NOW OPEN FOR BUSINESS! That's right folks! Located right on American soil on Marshall street, brought to you by none other than me! Oh, and Isaac and Miria. They helped a lot.
I have no idea what to call it yet, but I've got alcohol and cards and... aw heck, we don't have a sheriff. Well, I can fill that role 'til a real one arrives! Dunno if that means I have to keep an eye on myself or not, but I'll get to that bridge when I cross it.
...also, England, gotta talk to ya. If you care to. That's it! Come drink and stuff!
[ He apparently thinks he shut it off. That is a lie. The video is still rolling as he sets his communicator on a table. You get a nice view of the lobby ceiling while America shouts at Isaac and Miria. Did I mention that he's a bit imperialistic too? Not as bad as the 1890s but still. ]
So I was thinkin'! Can you guys steal a building? I want another! And I'm running low on bullets and I just got over that economic depression, so I don't wanna pay that much for one. Which one has the most Americans?!
[ It ends there. God help whatever building he attempts to claim.]
[ooc: Action log for anyone and everyone interested! Threadjack anything. Feel free to claim any stupid junk as your stolen item. Or just reply to his post and call him a freak WHATEVER WORKS.]

[action]
Different for here, maybe, but I've got tons more livelier back home!
[action]
At least you've been keeping out of trouble.. mostly, eh?
[action]
Haven't been caught yet, so I'm guessin' that counts as mostly stayin' out of trouble.
[action]
Ahhh.. well.. keep it up then, eh? But honestly, you did a good job with this place, Al. It looks completely different..
[action]
I will! I'm good at slippin' past the law, even when the law is me! [ Don't try to make sense of this. I'm sick and he's drinking. ]
Looks way better, right? Not just some dreary old lobby, nope, now it's actually something worth coming to!
[action]
It does. Now if someone could play that piano, eh?
...
And is that a card table?
[action]
You interested in a game?
[action]
[...]
Sure, eh? Though I don't have much along the lines of betting materials..
[Somehow I expect everything from America's room is out here for decoration, eh?]
[action]
[ Mostly other peoples' crap he's taken but STUFF THAT WASN'T BEING USED. Staring intently at Canada. Are you uncomfortable yet? ]
You've got have something of worth. Can't you bet yourself or something?
[action]
[Yes, Kumajirou is there. He is always there. Canada sighs, kind of shifts back a bit.]
...why would I bet myself?
[action]
[ Pointing at the bear. Apparently Canada is now one with Kumajirou or something. ]
Because then I want you!
[ This would be touching if he wasn't talking in a purely imperialist sense. ]
[action]
...okay.
[fdjkhsgkjfsd]
No. I'll find something else to bet, eh?
[action]
Like what? Do you even have anything else worth betting?
[action]
Do you?
[action]
[action]
[action]
[ WINK. Though really, he wouldn't bet anything that looks like it'll be missed. ]
[action]
I'll bet five strips of bacon and a double-double.
[action]
[action]
[action]
[action]
[He's so patient. Forever.]
[action]
[action]
[Does America even listen to what he says? He'll probably forget they had this conversation when he walks away.]
[action]
Alright! Then I'll bet... this chair, that table, and that lamp!
