March 17th: We Are Stardust, We Are Golden, and Whatever Impresses Hippie Chicks [Text]

Good morning, Death City! Somewhere out there, I know that there's a special lady who combines these attributes in one flawless package.

1. Good in bed
2. Great in bed
3. Spectacular in bed
4. Searching for all of the above in a sexy love torpedo named Barney Stinson!

Ladies, especially Weapon ladies, send in your replies before they start pouring in too fast for me to keep track of.

Dudes. Dudes. Cock block at your own risk. Because I will make fun of you if you post here. It will be ruthless, cruel, dirty low-down mockery. You've been warned, gentlemen.

[Liz gives Barney a look that is part smirk and part "if you try anything with her, I will end you".]

Right behind you.

[The walk to the mall is an in eventful one, largely. Barney strides along, looking like his already healthy confidence levels have been given a boost due to the two lovely women walking along with him. ]

[ Tsubaki, meanwhile, pads alongside the two, smiling happily. After all, Barney seemed so happy now. Seeing as their trip to the mall is uneventful, they get there relatively quickly. ]

Is this it?

[ At least that's what it appears to be, as they neared said laser tag location. ]

Yup. That'd be it. [She grins.] Not a bad place either.

[Barney beams at the closest thing he's found to a home since arriving, his apartment included.]

She's a beaut, isn't she? I come here once every two days, at least.

[Once inside, he pays for three tickets and explains the team situation to the nice lady behind the counter.]

[ Aww, that's so cute Barney. Wait, once every two -- geez~! Tsubaki's...never set foot in the place herself. Good thing she had Liz backing her up. ]

So often? [ Wow. But he must come with friends, right? Of course! ]

Have you been here before too, Liz-san?

Nope. But I got plenty of practice with this sort of thing before.

[Of course, she was mugging people with her sister back then...]

[She doesn't focus on the memory, instead putting on the equipment and expertly twirling the laser gun. She's grinning at Barney.]

You mind giving us a little time to confer on a strategy, hot shot?

Take as much time as you need, little lady. Maybe when I beat you regardless, you'll call me "hot shot" unironically.

[ Oh dear. Tsubaki inwardly chuckles a little, because she's more than used to that kind of response - if only from her own Meister, and HIS brand of response was still ten times ... bigger... than Barney's there. ]

Thank you Barney-san; we won't be long. [ Because keeping him waiting is rude. But she turns to Liz curiously, assuming they step away a bit to pow-wow. ]

He seems rather confident doesn't he? [ It's terribly amusing. ]

What did you have in mind? [ She's the newbie here, she'll follow your lead~! ]

Yeah, he does. Kind of reminds me of a less mouthy Black*Star. [The comment is said with a small grin because, well, as irritating as Black*Star can be, he wouldn't be Black*Star without that boastful personality.]

[Liz's grin morphs to turn slightly evil.]

Speaking of, you know that copying thing you do with him? Do you think it's possible for you to copy, say, me?

[While the ladies confer with each other, Barney slips into his laser tag gear, sneaking occasional glances over his shoulder at the fine ass of the tall blond. Legendary!]

[ Tsubaki grins as Liz voices the thought that Tsubaki herself had had - though the question takes her by surprise. ]

Copy you? [ Huh. ]

In ... theory I suppose I would, but - my family doesn't have any familiarity with a weapon form like yours. I don't believe I would be able to change into that sort of weapon form without some training, I'm afraid.

[Liz shakes her head.] Not my Weapon form. I meant me me. You know like how you can make yourself look like Black*Star as a distraction?

[Dat asssssss. Her figure is damn fine, anyway, though. Wow! ]

[ And their conversation may even be distracting Liz from the fact that she's being ogled like a hungry lion eyes a wounded antelope from across the savannah. ]

Oh! Well - [ She's never mimicked someone other than her Meister before, but... she nods slowly after a moment. ]

I see - yes, I think I would be able to do that.

[Oh, she's aware of it, Tsubaki. And she's going to pretend she doesn't notice by sticking one hand in her back pocket and adjusting her stance so the opposite hip is jutting out just a bit. Liz does not consider distracting opponents with her body as beneath her.]

Great. If he's played as much as he says he had, he'll probably go for you first since you're the least-experienced player. The playing fields for these things usually have places you can duck and hide, so try and do your ninja thing as much as possible and use me for cover if you can. We set him off-balance, we can keep hitting him and wracking up the points. Sound good?

Hey! Are you guys planning your strategy or sharing a deeply vulnerable moment that will result in a girl-on-girl makeout? Either way I'm totally ready for the next phase of the evening!

[ Tsubaki listens carefully to the plan, and nods once, though she gives Liz a long look for a bit. If she's going to need to copy her friend's form, she wanted to make sure she got the details down right. ]

All right, that sounds good. [ Pff oh Barney. She glances over her shoulder because w h a t ... ]

We're planning our strategy, of course. I'm sorry, we shouldn't keep you any longer. We're ready now. [ Let the games begin~! ]

[Liz rolls her eyes at the "makeout" comment.] We're coming, Mr. Impatient.

[And to the battle arena?]

[To the battle arena!

Once the attendant lets them into the darkened room, lit with neon colors under a black light, Barney bounds off in search of the enemy base.]

[ Amused as Barney bounds off, Tsubaki turns her attention to Liz again. ]

He's certainly full of energy, isn't he?

[ Energy will not save him~! He's goin' doooooooooown. Probably. ]

No kidding. [She grins.] Let's get him.

[And game time is go!]

[Barney is very energetically darting from one scent structure to another, aiming his gun and firing away! He hears the confirmation that he's hit someone.]

This is how it's done! You have to be ruthless! Absolutely uncompromising in your will to fight!

[At least there are no 11 year olds! Barney is very competitive when it comes to 11 year olds.]

[ Thank goodness there are no 11 year olds! Tsubaki nods firmly to Liz, immediately putting on her 'game face' to speak. Grasping the gun in her hand is a little weird to her, but once she's comfortable with the feel, she sprints along, quiet and stealthy, keeping a careful eye on her surroundings. Wouldn't do to get tagged early in the game, right? ]

[Liz is stalking through the terrain. She holds her weapon close, listening carefully.]

[And she's going to use a little feminine ingenuity to handle corners. She's glad she keeps a mirror in her pocket. That little compact works wonders to see around the corners to look for Barney without exposing herself.]
