The Void

[SmilyCube112]

"Not all the prizes have sky-high ticket prices - Just the best ones, like that item." Amethyst says, pointing to the Splatzooka Water Barrager on display at the Prize Booth.

[artsyGeek]

"..Bumper boats? I'm assuming those are like, bumper cars, right?"

[Cassie]

"...Holy shit." Chris says in response to the prize Amethyst pointed at.

"Hey! I got this cool small piano!" Henka says, hauling what's appears to be a toy piano, but with saucer bells instead of the usual tines.

[Kennifer]

"...hi?"

Okay, why was an actually-fairly-well-known actor in the void? Weird...

[Dookie]

"..Bumper boats? I'm assuming those are like, bumper cars, right?"

"Yeah, but with boats."

[Cassie]

Henka starts messing with said toy piano's keys, making messy, chimelike noises.

"Can I try those bumper boats?"

[Mr. Lee Hammer]

You're on! Bumper boats it is.

[Kennifer]

"Okay, that... actually does sound like a lot of fun."

[wingedcatgirl]

"Sure, bumper boats, why not," Loren says.

[Cassie]

Chris gets on a bumper boat.

[artsyGeek]

[Scott nods at ???'s answer.]
"Ah, alright. Seems pretty neat."

---

[Meanwhile, nearby, a melody can be faintly heard.]

[Cassie]

Gradually, Henka unconsciously synchronizes his toy piano playing to the distant melody.

"Hold on a second...hey, who's that?"

[Mr. Lee Hammer]

As Gary Busey hops into a bumper boat as if he were an excited child, Mindy notes the melody.

"What is that?"

[Dookie]

Once everybody gets on the bumper boats, ??? Starts the ride, and then gets onto a boat.

Let the games begin?

[Cassie]

"Sure!"

Henka starts floating towards the source of the melody, entranced.

[Kennifer]

Amanda is more concerned with the bumper boat, and trying not to fall out, than she is with the melody.

[wingedcatgirl]

Loren, meanwhile, is boating around a max speed like someone who has no concern for their safety or anyone else's. Possibly because she has no concern for her own safety or anyone else's.

[Cassie]

Chris's boat gets knocked far by Loren's.

"AAah! Holy crap! That was kinda scary!"

[Mr. Lee Hammer]

Mindy shrugs and gets on a bumper boat. Guess she has nothing better to do.

Meanwhile, Gary Busey drives his around like a madman, bumping into everyone he sees, while hollering like a rapid dog.

[artsyGeek]

[Scott is having quite some fun in the bumper boat round. He tries to just bump into the people who he's sure is gonna bump into him first, but ends up doing something similar to Gary, just more careful.]

[oh yeah and the melody's died down for now]

[Kennifer]

Amanda's.... Mostly trying to dodge at first, then she decides "eh what the fuck why not" and rams her boat at Gary's.

[Dookie]

???’s boat starts leaking gas.

“Shit!”

---

Pecan starts bumping people around.

“Hahaha...this is fun!”

She starts bumping so hard, she bumps one over..oops.

[wingedcatgirl]

Loren's boat, it turns out. The thing gets flung into the air, spinning. Loren is doing that scream-laugh thing people do on roller coasters.

And sploosh.

[Cassie]

Chris's boat gets hit by Gary's, which then hits Scott's, and then she ends up bumping onto Henka, sending him meteoring to wherever the melody came from.

"-AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA-"

[Kennifer]

Amanda looks...

Weirdly surprised by the lack of disaster involving her just yet. Could her luck be... improving?
