Bartending live

[noteablekiller]

Who: You
Where: The lobby
When: Day 87

[Codex is on camera, speaking to everyone from the lobby, it's obvious he's arranged chairs and set out glasses to facilitate some bar tending]

Did anyone receive fanmail they'd like to respond to? If so, come down to the lobby and use BARiTONES live, we'll be providing free drinks for anyone responding publicly to their mail.

Think of this as a way to encourage the sort of audience engagement you're interested in. I realize fanmail is often... invasive, but I'm sure most of you have fans you wouldn't mind hearing from again.


[You are free to assume you already got a drink from Codex and are sitting down to address mail, or to top level a comment to Codex and he'll respond!]

[Flicks an ear.]

A bet? What kind of bet?

[shutthefoxup]

I'll bet in the next fanmail round I don't get any fanmail calling me 'Daddy'.

[purrrnicious]

Let's say I took your bet. What would I get if I won? I mean, that is the part that's most interesting to me, after all.

[shutthefoxup]

Mmmmm....How about winner gets one hundred points from the loser?

[purrrnicious]

. . .Is that all? The way you dropped that "wanna bet on it", I was expecting something interesting.

[shutthefoxup]

Aa? I'm not gonna ask someone to give up a limb over being called 'Daddy'.

[purrrnicious]

––What?! Why would I want your limb?! I said "interesting", not "creepy"!

[shutthefoxup]

Pfft. I don't know you well enough to guess your idea of interesting though! Work with me here!

[purrrnicious]

I don't want any severed limbs. There, now you know me a little better.

[shutthefoxup]

I would hope.

Mmmm.....maybe some kind of dare then?

[purrrnicious]

Yeah, that could work. Hey, one of our Live options is "auction". So if I win, how about I get to auction you?

[shutthefoxup]

Auction me? For what?

[purrrnicious]

[Shrugs!]

Dunno, whatever. A date, slavery, buyer's choice.

[shutthefoxup]

Hmmmm.... And if I win you'll need to help me with a live too then. Sound fair?

[purrrnicious]

Whoa, whoa, you couldn't get any more vague if you tried. What Live? What would I be doing, huh?

[shutthefoxup]

MY lives are taunting and grooming! What's the worst that could happen?

[purrrnicious]

People who say that pretty much turn out to be the least trustworthy.



[Considers, swishing her tail sharply before:]

Fine. But if you try to get me to do anything weird I can't promise not to scratch anyone.

[shutthefoxup]

[Holds out a hand]

Fair enough.

[purrrnicious]

[Takes it! She sure does have real claws.]

Pretty sure this is a bad bet for you, but I'm not gonna complain if you're willing to make it~

[shutthefoxup]

Eh, what's the worst that could happen? At least this makes things interesting.

Silver, by the way.

[purrrnicious]

Silver, huh? You can use "Kohime" for now.

[shutthefoxup]

For now, huh? Expectin' you'll get your real name back soon?

[purrrnicious]

Oh, no, I have it. It popped up in my first memory, I didn't have to wait long at all.

[shutthefoxup]

Ah, that's great! Congrats.

[purrrnicious]

Pff, okay. What for? Having a name isn't exactly an accomplishment.
