[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.]

I doubt the other residents would know or remember the riot act at all--and, legally, it's not as if it would be of any use.

Even so, I can't let him get away with all of this without giving him a bit of hell.

[ a-ah oh gosh! I hope I can expectations ;w; and apologies for the late tag; I've been out most of the day ]

And before you say anything, I'm certainly not whinging because I'm upset he didn't ask me for help. That'd be stupid.

...

Yes, it most certainly would be, but perish the thought.

... You're an... associate of his?

I'd prefer not to be, but I am. I'm the poor sod in charge of keeping the stupid idiot in check.

... I'm usually very good at the job, but he gets the better of me every now and then; like now. But it's a very rare occurrence.

... You must be the one who thinks himself to be England.

How'd you come to that conclusion?

[identity profile] verily-ergo.livejournal.com 2010-06-27 07:34 pm (UTC)(link)
It's quite simple. I've spoken to America quite a bit and he speaks about you often. Additionally, I doubt the other English men and women here would refer to reading the riot act in such a way. Last, you've just informed me that you are "the poor sod in charge of keeping the stupid idiot in check."

It wasn't a stretch by any means.

[identity profile] mygodmyright.livejournal.com 2010-06-28 05:14 am (UTC)(link)
Just to clarify, keeping America in check isn't my actual job; I decided it was the least I could do for mankind, seeing how I did raise the ingrate.

Yes, well, he turned out rather... ... interesting.

If you're England, then I suppose I'll introduce myself--Miles Edgeworth.
