I'm only here because I'm proving a point to Strider. And that point is that his club is stupid and pointless and crappy.

[rainbowbright]

By which you mean an attempt to counteract any accusations of prudishness. It isn't as effective when you remain so isolated from any of the occurrences defining the venture.

[gam8lignants]

Implying that's not why you're here? I'm a lot less prudish than you are, Maryam. I just don't see the point in tossing my money at a bunch of chicks I don't even know.

[She's... very stingy with her money.]

[rainbowbright]

[ you helped drag her out, vriska. you did this. ]

I never accused you of being prudish. You don't need to defend yourself to me.

But these women are at least skilled practitioners of their trade, and the tips are important to their livelihoods. I think it might be inappropriate not to properly compensate them for it.

[ and maybe hope it will get them to go away. but they never go away. ]

[gam8lignants]

They're getting enough from everybody else, one or two people not tipping isn't going to make a huge difference. They get a cut of the door price anyway, don't they? I paid that, and if I'm not interested in what's going on here, then it's stupid to keep giving them money. Besides, the more you give them, the more they expect from you! It's an endless cycle of wasting your money.

[rainbowbright]

Well, if I'm putting it to such a waste, perhaps they'll better utilize it, at least.

[gam8lignants]

Maybe, maybe not. They might waste it on equally useless shit.

[rainbowbright]

Oh? And what purchase of such great import would you instead make?

[luckout]

Anything would be better than what you're doing or what they would do. But if I were going to make a real investment of it, it would definitely be for a sailing vessel.

[glowsferatu]

A boat. You want to buy yourself a boat?

[ she starts tittering lightly, but is way too drunk to hold it at that level. instead she ends up exploding into laughter, face down and the counter as pale green tears well up in her eyes.

it wasn't even that funny, she's just had way too much to drink. ]

[luckout]

What the hell is so funny about that? It's a great investment! Living life on the high seas is what I was meant to do.

[glowsferatu]

[ she picks her head off the table and wipes her eyes, leveling vriska with a flippant look. ]

Honey. Darling. Precious. Vriska. [ right, that was her name. ]

Can you even imagine what you would be like on the high seas? I mean, have you fully parsed that mental image?

Because all I'm seeing...is a ssssinking ship! Just, the little bow poking out of the water with you standing on it forlornly, waving the...waving the white flag! [ she starts laughing again. you've lost her. ]

[luckout]

[She grinds her teeth together, agitated.]

I think you're getting me confused with what Ampora usually looks like on a boat. I'm more than capable of sailing a ship. I could even lead a whole fleet if it happened to strike my fancy! And you know what? Maybe I will.

[glowsferatu]

A fleet! Oh, no no no no! [ she exaggerates the motion of shaking her head, mentally counting back how many no's she'd just said. ] No, no...no. [ seven. no eighth. this is important. ]

Commanding a fleet means not only dealing with others, but expecting them to listen to you. And who would ever dare do that?

[luckout]

[Rude as hell, at least say it eight times! How passive aggressive, even when she's drunk.]

I have my ways! You're underestimating me if you think I can't do it.

[glowsferatu]

[ kanaya leans forward on the table, smugly pointing an unsteady finger in vriska's direction. ]

And you're underestimating the mutiny that would be brewing in your ranks. I know that if I were a member of such a crew, I would begin planning my contribution to the scheme before the first day ended!

[luckout]

I wouldn't let insubordinate assholes on my crew! I'm not an idiot. And I sure as hell wouldn't invite you to be on it. You don't have what it takes to live on the high seas.

[glowsferatu]

Well, lucky for me, I'm not alive anyway! But either way, I'm sure you could make even the most subordinate of assholes rebel against you, given enough time and exposure. I haven't seen you try to psychically dominate anyone recently, after all.

[ herself included, to her surprise. she's almost sure it would have happened by now if it could. ]
