[Video] un: QueenCobra, backdated to September 29th

[In the background, one can see a brand new amusement park. It’s equipped with some standard rides - a ferris wheel, two roller coasters, a scrambler, bumper cars, a merry-go-round, and a tilt-a-whirl.

The games are all standard faire, although the prizes are all varying degrees of odd - some are plush squids, and other plush toys appear to be either inebriated, or are mildly disturbing. The park also features a few other attractions - an enormous bouncy castle obstacle course can be seen, and there are a few other buildings.

In the center of the camera is Tory, but there's a young man in that can be seen in side profile, looking out at the misplaced amusement park.

Hi Trench! Look what we made. Pretty cool, huh? Robby, do you have any ideas on what we should name it? Or should we take suggestions?

[The camera swings onto the guy with her, who looks at her and at the camera of the omni, a baffled expression matched by an incredulous laugh. Brows high up, he waves a hand.]

She said we made it, but that's all her. And I'm still stuck on a park appearing out of nowhere to be thinkin' names.

[But it's the sort of stuck where a laugh is in his words. Like wow, this sure did and is happening, huh.

The camera focuses back onto Tory, and she wraps up the short PSA.
]

Anyone who doesn’t suck is welcome to come and enjoy it. It’s just outside of Crenshaw. If you have any ideas for a good name for it, reply here.

You made that?! Like made built or made---

--- you know what? Doesn't matter. Either way gets the same answer: Damn. Two high fives and no suggestions for names, but I don't suck, and I'm comin' at ya with friends.

[personal profile] faceblocks 2022-10-12 02:09 am (UTC)(link)
From the looks of it I'd say it's more like what limits? You made a whole place. And you made it fun.

You take drinks for credit? That's a question for both of you, by the way.

[personal profile] faceblocks 2022-10-26 01:54 am (UTC)(link)
Maybe after we test the rides.

Generally, no. But I won't cross it off the list completely.

I'll definitely give you a heads up. If you really dislike 'em, maybe I'll have to take a tour through the food stalls first.

Holy shit. [ there is a considerable amount of awe in her voice ] That's badass. I always thought Trench could use a wholesome place like that. I bet the orphans will get a fucking kick out of it, too.

I'd offer a name or two but... I'm guessing it should be kid-friendly and The Big Badass Amusement Park doesn't exactly hit that note.

"You down to go to the BBA?" [ and then she hmms at it. ] I dunno, maybe it could work? It sounds more like a bar or a bowling alley.

But what if you just went with your names? Tory and Robby's Totally Spectacular Wonderland? Or Cheaper than Disney?

[personal profile] fogsong 2022-10-12 01:54 am (UTC)(link)
I mean, Disney named his park after himself but I get it. I'd feel weird if I named something after myself, too. I guess a plaque would be cute.

Trenchieland is too nail-on-the-head, I think. Squid World is cute, especially if you figure out a mascot for it. You know, like a squiddy version of Mickey Mouse?
fogsong: (Default)

[personal profile] fogsong 2022-10-24 09:54 pm (UTC)(link)
I'd say you fucking accomplished it. Disney would be jealous.

I could draw up a mascot for you if you want. You'll just have to give me an idea of what you're wanting.

[personal profile] fogsong 2022-10-27 10:29 pm (UTC)(link)
Oh, a perfect exchange. I'll hop right on designing him. You'll have to give me a few days but it shouldn't take too long.
fogsong: (101)

[personal profile] fogsong 2022-11-02 09:32 pm (UTC)(link)
[ It takes a little longer than a few days, maybe a week, but Sharon soon sends a text with several photos. ]

Here it is! I call him Fin but you can name it whatever you want to.

He's got three other color variations, too. One, Two, and Three. You know, just in case.

If you want something changed or want more colors, just let me know and I'd be happy to oblige!

Wow— you made it? I don't have any name suggestions but that's pretty impressive.

We don't really have anything like this back where I'm home but it seems like it definitely covers both those things.

Do you have any recommendations?

[Dito is silent for a few long moments as he takes in the sudden appearance of the amusement park-- all the lights and sounds and movement, the various games and attractions; the enormous rides that tower over it all like oddly-shaped colossi. It strikes a garish contrast to the aged and Victorian aesthetic of Trench.

Finally Dito tears himself away from the sight long enough to voice his opinion, his tone dubious and nonplused.]


What is it, though?

[Forgive him-- parks like this won't be invented in his world for another 600 years or so.]
syncopathic: (to seize some final breath of freedom)

[personal profile] syncopathic 2022-10-26 03:29 pm (UTC)(link)
...so like a fairgrounds, then? Why are there so many moving parts?

[Good luck trying to explain what rides are to someone who has no real-world equivalent to base them on.]

Never been on a swing, but I think I get what you mean.

[Actually, what he thinks is that it's stupid to seek an adrenaline rush without any kind of risk involved, but he's been cautious about voicing his opinions on the network after the epic clusterfuck of last time. It's not worth the hassle or the headache.]

And you're saying you made this? How long did it even take you?

Y'know, I'd been thinking this place was missing something. Creepy amusement park wasn't it, but I'll take it. So who gets to test the rides first?

Aaand who's gonna peel them off the pavement? [Fingerguns!]

That is him volunteering.

I volunteer to peel him off the pavement.
faceblocks: (well huh)

[personal profile] faceblocks 2022-10-26 02:28 am (UTC)(link)
He's pretty tough. I think he can take it, but I'm down to chaperone. I do owe him ...maaaaaybe my life.
azurestar: (diamond)

[personal profile] azurestar 2022-11-02 01:01 am (UTC)(link)
[He takes a second to check another message for ONE SECOND…]

I am NOT volunteering! …But I am tough, like, the toughest.



But STILL not volunteering!

Oh my gosh, oh my gosh, oh my gosh!

This is so cool!

Are you guys officially open yet?

Because I want to come by the second that you are!
