II. (open) i'm gonna fight with myself til i'm bleeding

[oorah]

featuring: hotdog castle & everyone (open to new arrivals too!!)
what's happening? frank feeding everyone venison dogs; frank fighting everyone; introlog spillover stuff + whatever else you want hmu
day: 11th nighttime (after all new arrivals are out and about/getting settled)
content warnings: ground meat, being a good neighbor, boyfights
notes: hit me up on PM or plurk hotdoge if you want anything else! happy to oblige

A. have you ever had a hot dog cooked by a guy named hotdog? this is going on instastories.

[ the time has come for frank to probably show all you losers what a hot dog is. for posterity or some such. he's been curing deer meat from a recent hunting trip with aloy and after their housemate reigen had soundproofed house six's kitchen, well. it seemed as good a time as any to put his plan in motion. not to mention he's in a good mood for once after encountering his best friend among the new arrivals.

early in the evening, frank will be piping his mixture into homemade casings with the doors to the back deck wide open for anyone to come pester him. and then later on of course he will be cooking them up with mustard he made and onions he found. he will also chop up pickles from the natives for anyone who gets down like that. none of y'all better ever ask him what a hot dog is ever again!!!

if you come in while he's cooking expect to be put to work, and did i mention he'll be downing rosé the whole time? e n j o y.

note: the kitchen is only soundproof when all the doors are closed. he will tell everyone on arrival this, so while he's cooking the doors will be shut but all other times feel free to mingle!! ]

B. the rules of fight club are bring snacks and make sure frank castle stays in bruises. tia for your contribution.

[ after posting up this little gem, frank has been steadily gathering members for his and mike's "club." his garage is a makeshift boxing arena and open for all any time they want to blow off steam or learn some new skills from punching bag himself. or from whoever else is lingering around. feel free to match yourselves and have a fight without him too, he'll ref!

the only rules of fight club are: bring snacks, agree with your partner on tactics: weapons/no weapons, fists only/every man for himself etc etc. AND when one person taps out or doesn't get up the match is over. the garage is approximately 80% soundproof. every fighter must wear wraps on their hands to muffle sound and agree not to shout or make loud noises, even in pain. soft-volume trash talking is allowed and perhaps even encouraged... ]

C. write your own starter or ping me for one!

[ david's been drafted into prep cook duty, so here he is, piping the hot dog mixture into the casings. he glances up when akira messages him, shaking his head a little when he sees it. ]

It's one of the only things he's passionate about
Hot dogs and rosé

[ well, no, but the other part of his duty is giving frank shit as much as he can so, whatever. ]

[beguiledcard]

[ There's a blink... and then a small smile of amusement. He takes a moment to response since he's doing some of his work. ]

There was a guy who liked rosé at the bar where I worked part-time. He seemed to like it as much as this guy's enjoying his drink.

[ There's no judgement here - only observation. There's a pause as he does more of his task... then: ]

I can't say how they are since I've never had either one.

[ More work! Then... oh! He's being rude, whoops. ]

By the way, I'm Akira Kurusu. It's nice to meet you.

[ david sort of squints a little at him when he mentions working at a bar but, maybe the legal drinking age in japan is different. still, he gets the vibe that akira could probably take care of himself just fine, so he doesn't mention it. it still pings his dad instincts, though. ]

It's fizzy stuff
Easier to drink and to like

[ he was almost going to say something like you could try and see for yourself but that feels weird even to him and he's sure sarah would kill him for it so he doesn't. the introduction saves him at least. ]

Nice to meet you too, Akira.
I'm Micro
I live with this guy
If you ever need anything you can come find one of us

[beguiledcard]

[ He clearly doesn't think anything of the fact that Japan has pretty... lenient laws with minors being in the bars of Tokyo. Also Micro sounds like a code name...

He likes it. ]

Thanks. I'll keep that in mind.

[ There's an appreciative smile. ]

Same goes for you. If any of you get hurt or need help, I've got a clinic up and running.

It's nothing super special just yet, but it's soundproofed in case anyone winds up with a cold that I can't heal.

So you work at a bar and you're a nurse on the side
I'm assuming you also go to high school (please tell me you go to school at least)
You sound like a pretty busy guy.

[ david's seen enough shady shit in government that nothing really fazes him much these days, but that doesn't mean he can't worry about kids like akira and mike and eddie. they all remind him too much of his own children back home, and he could never imagine leo and zach going through any of this stuff on their own. ]

Thank you
With our track record I have a feeling I might take you up on that sooner than later.

[ little does he know. ]

[beguiledcard]

[ A thoughtful glance to the side for a moment. ]

Actually... back home, I was a student on top of being a leader of a group of thieves, a chef, a barista, a bartender, a cashier, and a flower shop employee.

[ SMILE.

In other words, he's pretty sure he can handle this. ]

I'd say I look forward to seeing you... But, needing to be healed isn't usually a fun time, judging from my experience.
