1st Quarter Alert [Action/Video]

[When Calhoun awakes, she finds herself facedown on a table in what must be Tapper's. The wood is slightly sticky under her cheek and smells of root beer, although when she moves a hand around stiffly, there's no mug anywhere to go with it. Which is strange.

What's also strange is that she's in Tapper's when she's supposed to be leaving Sugar Rush. That was the last thing that happened, right? Wreck-It had finally gotten his butt moving and they were going back to where they belonged before...

Stiffly, Calhoun sits up and looks around. And her eyes narrow. This isn't Tapper's. Wherever this is, it isn't the familiar watering hole filled with other arcade citizens. There isn't a single familiar face anywhere. And her gun is nowhere to be found.

For that matter, her armor isn't anywhere to be found. This is a plain white dress. What in the seven levels is this dress.

Calhoun is not amused. With a low growl, she gets to her feet - hits her head on the low-hanging light over the table - and takes another glaring look around the bar. Definitely not in Sugar Rush anymore. This isn't saccharine pink enough. There is, however, a thick journal with her name on it. She knows better than to leave a key item like that behind. After flipping through it quickly and deciding it's infinitely TL;DR, she takes the impatient route and just pokes at the transmission options a few times before she finds the video function.]


Anybody care to share what the flying fairydust is going on around here? Short version. I don't have the time to go through this whole cheat guide here.

[Aaand end transmission.

Alright. Now. First things first. She has to find her scanner, then her gun, then her armor. Then she can figure out what happened.

And somebody is going to get smacked for this.

Calhoun can be spotted slowly making her way through the main part of the village, looking almost like a lioness on the hunt at first as she tries to sniff out any kind of threat. Once she's made her stops into all the stores and found what she's looking for, she'll be a little more at ease, but no less irritated-looking. She's still got this place to scope out and figure out.]

Short stack?! That's low!

[Oh, damn, that just added on to it. Red makes a noise somewhere between a sigh and a growl.]

There's no problem! It's just-- I'm not used to seein' people this tall! Where d'you all keep comin' from?

[First Daisy, and now this woman. Red wouldn't be surprised if the next one couldn't even fit in the buildings.]

Sorry, not familiar.

And I'm not a civilian, but you can call me Marco, Miss.

Aye, I am perfectly able to hear myself. Is there anything wrong with how I speak?

My tugboat?

[Whoah, lady, you're losing Loki there. Too many interesting phrases you need to explain to him.]

How do punches float a boat? Or is it a cool Midgardian term I should remember?

Right after the- oh, pixie sticks. You're from before where I am too! Bummer. [She crosses her arms, thoughtfully.]

Guess that means I know stuff you dunno yet, huh!

You seem to be taking this all pretty well, eh.

I'm with you! I mean... I'm the last person who'd want to try that out! Just thought you'd like to know. For, I don't know, strategy stuff, uh... Sarge.

Game jumping....

You mean world jumping?

As much as I've heard of calling life a game, no, I haven't quite heard it phrased that way before, eh.

But you've been to other worlds before, or games rather?

What is wrong with speaking formal? Or...

Ah!

Allow me to switch to cool, hip language of the street, yo. Yo.

[Yes, Loki's got this.]

RPG character, yo? Yo, that is totally wrong dude. I am Loki Laufeyson, behold my swagger...yo.

Ah... Someone mentioned them to me a long time ago. Aye, we have a few at the Welcome Center, I think?
