Side Game: No Rules. Just Right.
Aug. 3rd, 2010 03:23 pmWe are in an old, abandoned Outback Steakhouse outside of Mesltone, Wyoming.
Doors and windows are boarded up. There is a thick layer of dust on every surface.
Because, in reality, this is not an old, abandoned Outback Steakhouse outside of Mesltone, Wyoming.
This is a place between. It is nowhere and yet everywhere. It doesn't even exist that much. But recently doors have been leading here. Doors on ships. Ships, of course, called Enterprise
The bartender, who is there and not there, is polishing glasses. The kitchen is stocked, but cold.
But, why? Why are the doors leading to an old, abandoned Outback Steakhouse outside of Mesltone, Wyoming? Why are people being brought here for only an hour, and then disappearing suddenly?
And are there any cheese fries?

I am an officer of Starfleet, assigned USS Enterprise, NC-1701.
...okay why do you have a Starfleet badge and a spandex suit on? That is just weird.

Ridiculous. The USS Enterprise NC-1701-D was destroyed three years ago. Who are you?
I'm in uniform, what do you think? Where are you anyway?

So anyone know what's going on around here? I just stepped into an access panel and suddenly I'm in a bar.
I really need to get back; my ship's about to blow up in a few minutes if I don't.

Oh fuck please no, you are from the future. AGAIN. Commander Spock is an Ambassador, Vulcan may or may not exist, yes? God I hope you are a future past my death, I would not wish to wear THAT uniform.
I am over here trying to get this goddamn bartender's attention.
Also I have a boyfriend so stop checking out my ass.

Hey, no offense, but the Enterprise is NX-01. You're all getting a little mixed up here. And your uniforms are weird.
Now, seriously, about that whole "getting back before the ship blows up" thing.

Nor are you my crew.
Is this your first time/universe travel incident son? I don't want to know what I am in your future nor will it do any good.

It's NCC-1701 in my day. You're from the previous Enterprise in my timeline, ARcher your Captain? Agreed on the uniforms though.
I'm sure we'll figure something out.

Sir yes sir!
It is my first time travel experience, although I have experienced interactions in my universe with temporally displaced persons.
The temporally displaced person in my universe felt that the universe was able to correct any issues arising from chronologically inappropriate information, however I can acknowledge that he may not have been correct in that assumption and will take your instruction as the superior officer in this situation sir!

Yeah, that's right. You from the future? I hate that. Time travellers all over the place.
Say, are those uniforms more comfortable than these? They look more comfortable.

Chekov: I am not checking out your ass. I'm heterosexual. You're the curly-haired one, right?
Yes, there's an Ambassador Spock and of course Vulcan exists. I went to a medical conference there last year.
The NCC-1701-E was commissioned two years ago. Is it time traveling again? Has anyone here ever had trouble with tribbles?

I see.
Well, this seems a full-on mess with multiple timelines. Use info to check but it's often best not to divulge anything major, you never know if you'll come out of these things remembering it our not. Better to play it safe.
