26th Fix

[Phone call, filtered from NPCs:]

Hi, guys. Before it opens for the season, I was thinkin' maybe I would see about takin' hold of the drive-in so we can watch some good movies for a change. Whattaya think? I know it still ain't all that warm out at night, but any time we get to have a drone-free party is good for me. Hell, we can make a party out of it. Watch a coupla movies, maybe bring some food, and I can DJ afterward... We can maybe build a fire or somethin'. Any ideas? Oh, and since I got hundreds 'a movies in my collection, if anyone has suggestions, I'm willing to hear 'em. Granted, we might not be from the same universe, so I may not have some things you're lookin' for.

[That, and he's afraid he might owns more movies where people in Mayfield star as characters, so he has to be careful. That would be way way too awkward.]


[[OOC - maybe I can put up a log post this weekend or next for this!]]

Oh yeah, tons! Yeah, the ones here are really lame. What kinda stories do ya like?

[thelonewanderer]

Um...

[Trying to think...she's read comics and her dad's told her stories.]

Superhero's are cool. ...people saving the world? My dad told me stories about that a lot. People on adventures.

[technohippie]

Superheroes I got. Lotsa adventures. Hell, half the super heroes 'n' villains are runnin' around Mayfield already.

[thelonewanderer]

What do you mean?

[technohippie]

It's... sometimes livin' in Mayfield is like livin' in a comic book. People that are fiction in my world are real here. Makes me wonder if I'm the star of a book or movie somewhere...

[thelonewanderer]

Really? Oh wow.

I don't know, I'd feel sorry for anyone stuck watching a movie about my life.

[So says the savior of the Wasteland.]

It'd probably be the most boring or depressing thing ever. Or both.

[technohippie]

Hey, that may not be true. Ya can't predict your own future, right? Who knows what might happen. Plus, I dunno how accurate these things are to their lives, ya know? But they tend to look the same, and have the same names...

[thelonewanderer]

Oh well in that case. Yeah that'd be pretty cool. Maybe I'd be a sidekick or something.

Someone who lives to the end of whatever it is.

[technohippie]

Same here, man, same here. Somethin' with a happy ending.

[thelonewanderer]

Exactly. Now that's the sort of story I'd like to be in.
