[ surprise, surprise, Wichita's broadcasting from the back room in the bar, like she did more often than not before she left. it's not like she's had any "man, it's weird to be back" feelings, because- well she didn't even realize she was gone for however many months when she first woke up after the jump. but then she turns on her communicator and there are a million transmissions about shit she doesn't understand, like, at all, and so she figures she better get to this sooner than later. ]

Hey.

[ hey. complete with a single wave and a somewhat sarcastic kind of grin. ]

First thing's first, for all the new kids on the block, I'm Wichita and whether you want to or not, I'm going to get to know a decent amount of you, because I'm a bartender at the space bar on the 6th level of the passenger quarters. AKA, the only open-to-everyone bar on board. I'm there pretty much all the time. Before anyone asks, no, Wichita isn't my real name, but no, I'm not going to tell you what it is. It's been a really long time since I've been home, but back then I had to learn how to use a gun, and I've gotten pretty good at it, so I also offer up shooting lessons for anybody that wants them. My two rules when it comes to all that are one, no mixing booze and guns, on the range or in my bar, and two, don't be a douchebag. So. If you fit those rules and want to come by the bar or sign up for a shooting lesson, consider this an open invite.

And there's that introduction.

Uh.

Second thing's second, I understand that my old room was left unlocked while I was gone, and that usually means that stuff is up for grabs, but that's no bueno now that I'm back, so this is me saying it needs to be returned. Immediately. [ the stuff she took from the kitchens and various parts of the ship she doesn't care about, but the stuff her friends left behind.. ] It's a short list, at least. Just drop it off here at the bar, or put it back where you found it, I don't care. Just refer back to rule two if you're looking for inspiration to not just hold onto it.

Yeah.

[ attached is a typed out list of about ten things, which include Justin Taylor's sketch pad, Isaac Mendez' sketch pad, this gun, this shirt, this hat and this gun, and a couple more random things that people she was close to might've left behind I just can't think of them because it's 3am, hehh, all described just enough to know what she's looking for. ]

Oh, and if somebody wants to explain what the hell's been going on on this ship for the last few months? That'd be- great. I guess. [ which is her cue to grab a drink, yep ]

They might hold onto it just cause it's yours.
swedge: (snark ⇏ i'm sure they think that)

Nothing.

Well you are a celebrity on board. Maybe they want to let their stalkish tendencies go.

[ the amount of bullshit she's throwing right now. ]

[ ha ha. ]

Yeah, no one tried to loot the bar. I would have liked to see them try. [ awkward pause. ] I might have trashed it though.

Let's just say it was a string of really bad days. And you leaving was one of them.

And Dean might have been involved with the last one.

[ whoops? ]
swedge: (question ⇏ c'mon now)

Made me do it. I'd kill him before I'd let him touch this place.

[ she on the other hand? totally allowed. ]
swedge: (neutral ⇏ at the bar)

[personal profile] swedge 2014-02-24 04:55 am (UTC)(link)
Exactly.

[ you were gone and i never thought you were coming home. basically. ]

Yeah, it took 'em a day or two but them plus a little help from some human friends got this place back together. Not that the holes in the walls kept any of the crowd away.

With the weird-ass memory shit we were all getting? Yeah no. And now it's numbers on the wall.

[ this tone of voice? basically hands being thrown up in the air. ]

Maybe that is the point? You got months of peace while the rest of us are steadily growing more and more insane.
swedge: (down ⇏ get the job done)

You're not. I've got scratches all around my room now but at least it's not hot as hell anymore.

[ and okay, jo can understand that, which is easy enough to notice by the way she quiets. but then she shakes her head. ]

You wanna get caught in the maybes and the what ifs, be my guest. But all that's going to do is piss you off. You left, and now you're back. Whether or not you were in an extended coma or not, you don't remember the shit we've had happening the last few months, so I'd consider that lucky.
