[:plant:] FIASCO: A game of powerful ambition & poor impulse control.

Sign me up

I vote for Tales From Suburbia, The Ice, and uh, fuck it. Touring Rock Band.

Jam it back in, in the dark.

You know, I could start screwing around right now, but from what I understand of this game, there's going to be plenty of opportunity to do that later

Right then. I'm taking a 4 from the dice pool and establishing that between Rychord and I, WE'VE GOT HISTORY.


Nutty and Lurker are UP TO NO GOOD.
Rychord and Stop Sign HAVE HISTORY.

Here's the dice pool after Stop Sign's turn:

DICE POOL: 1, 1, 2, 2, 2, 2, 2, 3, 3, 3, 4, 4, 4, 5, 5, 6, 6, 6

Lurker's turn.

There's nowhere I can't reach.

Oops, sorry about that, Pang.

This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it.

Pang, let's say I wanted to use an object. Will I be able to take a die for the category of object and then another die to specify what object it is this turn from the popup, or am I only allowed to take one die a turn?

I am a dolphin, do you want me on your body?

Thanks, Pang. In that case, I'm going to say that Nutty and Lurker are up to no good with CONTRABAND, removing a 2 from the dice pool.


The pool: 2, 2, 2, 3, 3, 4, 4, 4, 5, 5, 6, 6, 6

RYCHORD's turn.

Most amazing jew boots

I'm not sure what Nutty and Lurker are up to with that ILLEGAL ALIEN, but it can't be anything good.

2, 2, 3, 4, 4, 4, 6, 6

6 taken, Rychord's turn.

Most amazing jew boots

Even though there is a restraining order against Rychord, there's still that FILE THAT NEEDS TO BE DESTROYED. Maybe Stop Sign has access to it, maybe she doesn't. Maybe Rychord has it. We'll see!

I am a part-time administrative assistant to one of the station bigwigs. I spend my free time peddling a dubious health product through an obviously bullshit multi-level marketing scheme.

Taking the last 4:

2,2,3.

RYCHORD'S turn.

FELIPE NO

ESTABLISHING scene.

Location: in the Action Six break room. It's a break room like any other, except with Action Six posters plastered all over. Anchors staring at you from the posters everywhere. There is no escape.

There is a soda machine, snack machine (with an unusual number of pork rinds) and a coffee machine that looks like a Doctor Who prop. There is also an open ice chest filled with bottles of spinach-green, viscous liquid.

Characters: Stop Sign (Hilary), Pang, Rychord, anyone else who wants to step in for a coffee break. Hilary has asked Rychord into the break room to discuss... the file (and perhaps sell him some of her miracle product). But Pang gets in the way. As always.

* * *

Hilary finishes writing on the sign next to the cooler. It says, in big block letters:

FREE SAMPLES FOR MY LOVELY CO-WORKERS!

VITAPURGE Natural Vitamin Drink and Colon Cleanser

"Give in to the urge - VITAPURGE!!!"

Official Milwaukee Distributor: Hilary Thunderhumpen

"God, married for a year and it still looks weird," Hilary says, under her breath. Of course, to other people, it's more like: "Oh, Thunderhumpen, yes! Such a great name for a weatherman, don't you think? It's German, of course. Very noble... blue blood somewhere in his ancestry, I'm sure."

At that moment, an Action Six reporter walks into the room and opens his mouth to speak to Hilary... but then, the Thunderhumpen also comes in, empty coffee cup in hand and a scowl on his face. Hilary shoots the reporter a meaningful glance that seamlessly turns into a practiced, cheesy smile. "Oh, boys, just in time to try some VitaPurge Formula 45! Give me your cup, darling..." Hilary moves over to her husband. As she's doing so, she looks over to the reporter. "You can help yourself. Not that I hate you or anything, just... oh, you know. Court order and all that, ha ha ha. " Her smile widens, showing a set of perfect teeth. Perfect, that is, if you don't count the slightly green tinge around the gums.


Let me know if I'm doing this wrong. Sorry for godmodding your name, Pang, but since you didn't specify your name, and it's my name too, I couldn't resist

* * *

RYCHORD's turn.

What, you don't want my bikini-clad body?

RESOLVING scene. Looks like Nutty is going to have a bad outcome (from Pang's passing a black die to him?)

* * *

Derek storming out of the room, and then the man in a box... whew, what a mess! But Hilary recovers quickly. "Oh, you poor thing, did that bad Chet put you in it? Here, let me give you a drink." She hands Carlos a stickerless bottle of VitaPurge and a business card. "If you like it, maybe we can talk about distribution opportunities in Mexico. Okay?"

Hilary turns to Randy. "Oh, right, I almost forgot. We need to talk about that coffee you promised me. You know, the Columbian coffee.... oh, what was the brand again? It has a long name.. I'll write it down for you and leave it at your desk. Oh, and yeah... Randy, that bottle isn't really for you. That's a special one I brewed up.... just... for... Chet." She winks at Bradley. What a moron. Hadn't he realized that the whole white sticker thing was phased out a while back? Today, the white sticker just meant that he had one of the bottles with her special experimental ingredient in it. It should kick in after he anchors the News At 10. And not during the broadcast. Hopefully~

Passing by Randy's desk, she slips a note into his drawer. "Midnight, tonight, at the park."

* * *

Taking a white 1 and giving it to Rychord. Do the numbers signify anything at this point?

Dice Held: Nutty (Black 4), Rychord (White 1)

White dice: 1, 3, 4, 4, 5, 5, 6, 6, 6

Black dice: 1, 3, 3, 4, 4, 4, 5, 5, 6

EDIT: Thought I'd try to get Lurker into it, but she isn't in the scene. So I'm passing the die to Rychord.

How ya doing, buddy?
