[ Della purposely moves the camera phone slowly up up to capture her in a Mostro Lounge uniform, doing a finger gun and winking. ]

Ladies, please, control yourselves! I actually have something to share besides my drip new threads... that's, uh, what the kids say right? Right. Sure.

A-hem. With the Mostro Lounge open, y'know what else is open? Our official GAME CLUB! Anyone and everyone can come in and play during the lounge's hours! Right now we've got a few basic board games - Monopoly, Risk, Scrabble, The Game Of Life... well, this world's versions of them anyway. But if you want to expand that area, bring your own games! We'll take whatever you've got! Make new friends and kick their butts!

Once we've got a good selection up and running, we also plan to host tournaments! Do you think you have what it takes to be the King of Games? Better practice now - just because Double A and I are running things doesn't mean we'll go easy on you if you challenge us.

Hope to see you there soon, and just remember - the real winners are the ones who have the most fun.

((OOC: Just to repeat from the CR workshop - No CR necessary needed for any character to join in. To make things easier on everyone, the majority of Game Club stuff will be handwaved! Think of it as an easy way to have instant CR from here on out. Naturally, if you WANT to thread out playing games with people, obviously you can! But basically you're allowed to say "[X], [Y] and [Z] played Escordvi's version of Monopoly, tears were shed, a board was flipped" once a month.

Feel free to use this post as an action log if you'd like to play games/handwave having played them with folks! Also feel free to shoot me any crit/questions you've got! ))

Oh good, I'm so glad that the uniform I had custom ordered for you fits. You wear it well, Della-san.

[sos_pilot]

Heh heh heh~! I feel so cool, Double A! Like I de-aged at least fifteen years! You've got killer taste!

[octoblot]

Thank you, I am pleased by your approval!

This particular uniform was one that was originally a simple suit as part of the attire for those that were students of Octavinelle, my college dorm, but then I added my own touches to it to signify those that were part of my staff at the Mostro Lounge.

[sos_pilot]

Yeah, I imagine mine was a bit of an extra effort, since you had to account for my tail.

[ Some ducks choose to let it pop out - Della likes to keep hers tucked in. She lightly pats her hip. ]

So I can't thank you enough for taking the small things like that into consideration. You're a good kid.

[octoblot]

Oh, you flatter me...

[Calling Azul a "good kid" is perhaps a little too generous depending on who you ask... but anyway--]

If there is anything else I can do to help further accommodate your needs while running the Game Club and other tasks that involve helping me out with the Lounge, please do let me know.

[sos_pilot]

Of course! 'Cause right now, you're not just my bestie, you're my boss! Boss Bestie! Double B!

[octoblot]

[wow, even more nicknames........]

Goodness... you don't have to call me any of those. You can still just call me Azul even if I am your boss, Della-san.

[... or "double A", he's gotten used to that one by this point enough to concede it's probably not going away ever.]

[sos_pilot]

Really? Not even chief? Boss-man? Big guy? Big cheese?

[ Clearly kidding, thank goodness. ]

[octoblot]

In order of opinion based on what you just said: I suppose that one isn't as bad, if you must, absolutely not, and definitely not that silly one either.

[sos_pilot]

Well now I am SUPER tempted to call you that, just because it annoys you.

But since that would be the silliest reason in any world to be fired, I'll show you decency and just stick to the classic Double A. Yes, even I can be reasonable.

[octoblot]

Indeed. I would so hate to have to fire you over such a silly nickname, so I am glad that you are willing to refrain.

[sos_pilot]

Heh heh heh. There's no way I'll lose my first job that easily!

[ Her first actual paying job, at 30+! Hurray! ]

[octoblot]

Good! That's a relief to hear that you're taking this seriously.

[If Surge and Kitsunami end up being his only other employees otherwise, it might be a disaster around here--I mean.]

[sos_pilot]

[ Mostro Lounge, the place for furries. ]

Of course! I know the kind of vibe I give off, but when it comes to friends, I'll always be there for you one hundred and ten percent. I don't want to let you down when you need me most.

[octoblot]

[Oh......]

How kind of you to say, Della-san... I really do appreciate hearing that. It seems I made a good choice in counting on you for this.

[planetwhisperer]

Oh, that sounds fun! Will there be anyone there to teach the games for people that have never heard of any of those games?

[sos_pilot]

Of course! We won't just throw you in willy-nilly. It's no fun if nobody has no idea what they're doing!

[planetwhisperer]

I mean, it could be--if we were all up for silly shenanigans. [ XD ] But, I'd really like to learn a few new games. I love playing board games with new friends.

[sos_pilot]

Big same! Then you'll love it here! And consider yourself my newest friend, in that case - the name's Della Duck!

[planetwhisperer]

Hi, Della. My name is Aerith. It's nice to meet you. I can't wait to play some fun games with you. I'll have to swing by soon and start learning.

[sos_pilot]

Of course! But don't expect me to show you any mercy once you've got the rules memorized.

[planetwhisperer]

[She laughed. And then:] Oh, it's on! I'll be sure to get real good.

[sos_pilot]

Someone sounds pretty confident... that's what I like to hear!

[planetwhisperer]

Confidence is half the game! ...or something like that.

[sos_pilot]

And the other half is having the most fun!

[planetwhisperer]

[She laughed merrily.] You bet!

[stillarhino]

[Crap. Has it been that long since she first mentioned the game club?]

You startin' it already? Ain't had time to find pins for slammer, yo!

[Aka he forgot...]

[sos_pilot]

Oh, is that right?

Hm, okay. I'll call up my boss and tell him to cancel game club altogether. Oh well!

[ She sticks out her tongue afterward, clearly kidding. ]

[stillarhino]

[Unfortunately, Della, you chose the most gullible guy to make that joke with.]

Whoa, whoa, jus' one second, yo! You don't gotta go an' do that!

[sos_pilot]

[ Pffft. What a cutie. ]

Relax, I'm just pulling your leg! I'm allowed to do that, since nobody can pull mine.

[ She knocks a hand to her metal leg. do you get the joke. ]

[stillarhino]

You was yankin' my chain? [Just gonna let out a deep exhale.] Geez, yo, I thought you was really gonna stop things 'cause a' that.

[And then he looks towards her leg on the screen for a second.]

What's your leg gotta do with messin' with me? [Nope, he doesn't get it.]

[sos_pilot]

Oh, you've never seen it?

[ She then sets the device down on a table, and rolls up her pant leg - revealing the metal leg. ]

Ta-da! Long story, but it's made out of rocket-ship-parts.

[stillarhino]

[No, he has not! So excuse him if he stares for a little bit.]

From a rocket ship? Damn, yo. Tha's pretty gnarly.

[sos_pilot]

Yeah, I'm awesome, I know it.

[ She grins, and lets her pant leg fall down again. ]

But the original point is, the game club is here to stay, and you can come by even without pins!
