Hee-eyy, is there anyone on board who can whip up some small containers? With magic or--whatever? Is there anything around? I need to make this--

[ He holds up a filled glass bottle the size of about an energy drink. ...if with a fancier bottle to it. ]

Into about--three! They're megalixirs! They'll make people feel good as new out on missions, magic and all! Light! [ And a smile springs on his face, even if he doesn't know she can hear him. ] I got a bunch of them! --Oh yeah, and Bryn! Yuna! I got stuff for you too! Come meet me in the luggage car!

Oh. Damn.

[Give him a moment. That's a lot of freakin' megalixirs. Damn.]

...how many points did you spend?


[Give him a moment to process.]


Huh? Oh, you mean-- [He waves at his head in the general area of his forehead where the goggles lie. A second. And then a shrug.] Not while stuck on this damn train... It's a style. My style. They've come in handy a time or two though.

[blitzcheer]

45. You want the last option on the shop. Just tell it to give you as many it can get -- that's what I did.

[ Is that last part necessary? Who knows. He didn't want one bottle for 45 points though. ]

Wouldn't be bad trying to get some of your own clothes that way either, if you're thinking about style. If you think you can make the points anyway -- I haven't got a clue how it decides who it likes. You see we got points just being on the train?

[theturksway]

Huh.

[He mutters something like 'this damn train hates me' but it's very likely he's gonna try something like that next chance he gets anyway. It would certainly be useful and he doesn't like relying on someone else for handouts.]

Yeah, you start with three basic and then who knows how it calculates them after that. I haven't been doing so bad though. [Could be better but at least he's gotten enough to keep purchasing useful things.] You know the spider does clothes, right? [He makes a gesture to his suit.] About as good as I got back home. She's pretty good at style. Can't say I'm not a fan of this. [He grins, he's quite pleased with this style in fact.]

[blitzcheer]

Yeah, I've got something too- but I don't wear it if I'm training.

[ And today is a training day despite the platform stop, so boring purple shirt and half-leg trousers it is. But with that said, he does ask with some amusement: ]

What about the clothes the train offers though? You tried that yet?

[ Has Reno dared to test his luck. ]

[theturksway]

Fair enough.

[Reno didn't bother to change out of his suit even if he did spend half a moment training. But then again, Reno was used to getting dirty on the job and that meant his suit often did, too.]

Nah, haven't had a chance.

[It was on his list. But he needs more things from home. Well, wants. Lots of wants.]

[blitzcheer]

[ Oh? Oh. ]

They're not bad! A friend was sharing her load after giving it a go, got other people trying it. I just haven't had the time to try it myself yet.

[ you know you know ]

Anyway, good luck saving up for everything. Mission time soon--that should net you something.

[theturksway]

Yeah, I hear it can be a real pain. [He let out a short chuckle.] But it can be amusing at least.

First things first: gotta rep to maintain, yada yada yada. Useful first stuff, then the fun stuff. [This may come as a surprise to anyone hearing him say this. That's because it's totally not like him at all.]

Thanks. Yeah, I should hope. Ain't like I'm sitting around doing nothing when the shit hits the fan! [He likes missions, shhh, don't tell anyone.]
