revivalproject | Festival fun times!

WHO: Lance and you!
WHERE: Temba "Rain Fare"
WHAT: Having fun and chilling out
WHEN: Now

[Winter and cold weather usually honestly, well, sucked for Lance. Growing up in Cuba, going to the Garrison in the middle of a desert, then a bunch of years in space... He wasn't used to the snow and the cold and the dark, so his mood had definitely suffered for it, no matter how novel snow tended to be. But despite spring still being a way's away, there was something bright happening now. A festival. Lance loved festivals and fairs and any sort of celebration, really, so something like this happening? Yeah, he was all over it.

The first thing he notices of course is the archery range. Though his marksmanship expertise lays in shooting, he's still been good at archery the times he's tried it, so he's eager to give this a shot. Literally. He's grinning as he ends up doing better than he thought, managing no small amount of bullseyes. Yeah, he definitely wants to practice some more with this stuff.

The treasure pit as well catches his eye. Who could say no to shinies? So he goes over, spending some time digging things up and collecting the prettiest rocks he can. Could be great for decoration, but even more than that, maybe he can utilize the prettiest one he finds to make a nice gift for Keith.

Once he's all tuckered out from running about from activity to activity, he'll hang out by the bonfire, sitting down and relaxing. Lance sips at one of the "potions" he'd made earlier, tossing bundles into the fire every so often to admire the sparkles and colors.

He knows that things are never peaceful for long, but right now, he'll enjoy it while it lasts.]

((ooc: I'm also happy to do any of the activities I didn't mention so go wild! Lance is going to do all the things, those are just some of the prompts for the post.))

[Before. Yep. Tommy grinned at Lance while the man gets it. Yeah, he's amazing, and you know it.]

Son of a truly amazing woman? Because man, I don't know if you'll EVER hit anything with a bow and arrow again if you insult my mom.

Hmph. I'm sure your mom's an absolutely lovely person, shame it didn't pass down to you.

[It's an obvious tease, and he gives Tommy a nudge and a laugh.]

So, what're you up to other than trolling me?

Wow, asshole. Almost feel like you deserve to miss your shots. Oh look, you did.

[He grins at that Lance because yeah, he gets that it's a tease.]

You know, keeping people fed and alive and all that shit.

Wooooooooow. And here I thought we were friends.

[Tommy's pretty awesome, honestly, in Lance's eyes.]

I mean, mood, that's a given. But are you at least taking a break here? There's a bunch of cool stuff at this festival.

Oh, are we? Damn, must have lost that memo.

[End joy the smirk.]

Easier to take a break when there's food options here after all. Even if this is super creepy. The 'people' here? Not real. Fucking weird ass holograms.

Pffft, I'll write it on a post it note and stick it on your head.

[And he sticks his tongue out.]

Yeahhhh... I mean, it's not like I haven't seen a lot of holograms before, but I definitely get them being kinda creepy. Trying to focus less on them and more on us.

Awww, brave of you to think you can stick anything to my head.

[Creepy because they are just there. Still. Staring.]

I prefer my fake people to act more like people. Or, you know, act.

Well, I'm definitely gonna take that as a challenge. Just you wait.

[Even if he fails a million times, Lance is nothing but persistent.]

Probably not worth it to try to give them acting lessons, huh?

You can absolutely take the challenge. I'd ask what you want if you win, but you won't so it's moot.

[He snorted at the idea of lessons.]

Because giving wallpaper acting lessons ever works.

So how would you like the crow you're gonna get served eventually? Medium, medium-rare, well done?

[Chuckle.]

Well, no, but I've seen weirder things.

Dude, pretty sure you couldn't bake to try and even serve me humble pie.

[Weirder shit than this? Tommy wasn't sure of that.]

Like what.

I totally can! And I can totally set up an oven!

[He gives a little hum.]

I mean, I'd have to think and my brain's a little jumbled right now, but when you've been across the whole universe, you see some stuff.

[Set up an oven? Tommy considers him thoughtfully.]

You know how to actually set up an oven? Just checking. Talking to Felwinter about trying to make an outdoor one.

I mean, I could...probably figure out something? I'm not exactly a mason or whatever, but with some bricks...maybe a pipe for exhaust... Kinda like a stove, y'know? But cover up the front, hmm...

[Lance hums, trying to make a little mental sketch in his head.]

So it's not something you're familiar with? I guess a lot of people don'. Just wanted to see if anyone has any input in stuff.

Yeah, unfortunately, it's just kinda guesswork on my end. But it sounds like it could work, you know? We'll probably have to use, uh, whatever we can find to stick the bricks together enough and seal up any cracks so the smoke doesn't just billow out of it like some lame club smoke machine, but theoretically...

Well, I'll keep researching then. Just need to figure out how to handle stuff. We deserve pizza.

Pizza...

[He gives a little whine, because nostalgia is definitely hitting him hard.]

What I wouldn't give for a slice of pizza and an order of garlic knots.

Yeah, you and me both. I live on carbs, man.

[Lance chuckles.]

Where I grew up, there was this bomb-ass pizzeria on the boardwalk. I used to go there all the time with my siblings, stuffing our faces after running around and swimming at the beach.

New York style pizza? Ain't good if it isn't.

I, uh. I honestly...have no idea if it was? I've never been to New York. I mean, the only time I've been to the United States was when I went to school in the southwest, and I was kinda in the middle of the desert.

[He looks sheepish.]

Wait, what? You've NEVER had New York Pizza? Dude, the South West isn't THAT fucking dead.

This is the worst.

Festival fun times!
