Hey my fellow other-worlders! Double-A Battery gave me a brilliant idea while we were out scoopin' the hottest desert ever - that's Azul Ashengrotto, bee tee dubs, keep an eye out for the eventual opening of his Mostro Lounge! [ finger guns, how's that for free advertisement? ]

Anyway! Back in his homelife, he's a member of a Board Game club, which we ABSOLUTELY need to bring here! Honestly it'd be nice to play with people who won't threaten to kick me out of the will for losing. A-hem. Nothing too big or too serious, maybe just meet up once a month or more to have some fun! So I'm here to ask you all the super important questions - what are your favorite board games?

Hey, you know what, let's broaden our horizons - what's your favorite game, period! Lay it all out! I'm all ears, you just can't see them, because I'm a duck.

[Yeah, pretty close.]

Gotta find pins that can work for it, but I'm down to play again.

[sos_pilot]

I'll keep an eye for them! Can you describe them for me? Don't leave out any details!

[stillarhino]

Ain't sure if this place is gonna have them but them's a bit thicker than regular pins. Kinda like this.

[It takes him a bit but he pulls out a pin, holding it up for Della to see. A large red hog sits in the middle against a red background. Holding it sideways, it is slightly thicker than a normal pin, with some small gadgetry between the front and the backing.]

Each pin can do it's own thing so it ain't 'sactly the same as the stuff you see around.

[sos_pilot]

[ She lets out an impressed whistle, tilting her head left and right to make sure she doesn't miss anything. ]

Ain't that a beauty! What kinda 'own thing' does this one do?

[stillarhino]

You know what, I ain't sure. Like I said, ain't played in a while. Was just collecting pins like usual back home.

But gimme a sec.

[The camera angles adjusts as Beat props it up against something on a table. Placing the pin down he fiddles with it a little, trying to get it to trigger. After a moment, the pin bounces, causing a number of spikes to protrude around it.

Beat yelps slightly as one of the spike poke his fingers, though it seems more from surprise than actual pain.]

Bwuh! Guess we know now.

[sos_pilot]

[ Della lets out a startled "WHOA" and then laughs! ]

Oh man! That was amazing! It's gunna be hard finding a pin that's cooler than that - you're the pro here and we only just got started!

[stillarhino]

Heh, I dunno 'bout pro, yo. My li'l sis used to kick my ass at this when we used to play. She was real good at this.

[He waits a few more seconds before poking around the less spiky parts of the pin, but it retracts on its own after a moment.]

My girlfriend's got one I gave to her a while back, too. Ain't sure if she still has it or if it does somethin'.

[sos_pilot]

How do you have so many pins and not know what they do? Don't you ever get curious?

[stillarhino]

Didn't really use 'em to play Tin Pin, so I never really tried. Also hadta do somethin' important instead of playin' for a coupla years. I'm prob'ly pretty rusty at it.

[sos_pilot]

Then it's more than ample time to practice! When we get this game going, I expect to be facing a champion!

[stillarhino]

Nah, you right! Gotta head in the game if I'mma beating all y'all at this.

[He laughs heartily.]

You sure know how to get someone hyped, yo. Could take a coupla notes from ya.

[sos_pilot]

[ Proudly prods her chest with her thumbs. ]

Call me the queen of cheer! I feel my best when I'm givin' someone else a boost!

[stillarhino]

Heh, I hear that, yo! We stickin' with that then, queen?

Name's Beat.

[sos_pilot]

Tempting, I'll admit, but just Della's fine with me! Nice to meet you, Beat!

[stillarhino]

[He'll remember that name for the entirety of 0.05 seconds.]

Right back atcha, Goggles. [Looks 0.05 seconds is up already.] If you and this friend a' yours gets this club up, gimme a holler. I think I know someone who'd be into this kinda thing.

[sos_pilot]

[ Hey, she loves a good nickname! Suits her just fine! ]

Great! The more the merrier! Bring everyone, anyone, and all the pins you can find!

[stillarhino]

If I find any like 'em, you can count on it.
