[OPEN] In Rides the King: Day 103+

Who: Jack and YOU!
What: Jack's come here on a mission and he really doesn't care about socializing, but bug him anyway! Just an intro log to get him assimilated before the AU event.
Where: The Carnival, the lake, wherever.
When: Day 103~105

a; arrival, gamer's circle - 103
[It was performance week, but Jack's late arrival meant he didn't actually have to work yet. He wasn't exactly thrilled with the job he'd been assigned either, but he had full confidence he would excel at it. He was supposed to be a Talker, so all he needs to do was learn more about the attractions he was supposed to talk about.

He thinks.

Unfortunately, Jack has no plans to make himself useful until he's asked. While he walks himself and his bike--which is essentially just a motor on a giant wheel--through the park with the sole intent of getting to his trailer and staying there, he has to walk through the gamer's circle first. The flashing lights and noise just make him look more sour than usual, at least, until he comes across a stand where you shoot down strafing, cut-out clowns with a water gun.]


Hmph... [That annoying smile. The make-up. Those two, tufts of hair on either side of its head. It reminds him of someone irritating.

Just for that, Jack steps up to the plate, grabbing the water gun with bravado.]
Is that the best you can do?!

[He's really taking his aggression out on those clowns.]

b; by the lake - 105
[The carnival itself didn't really interest him. Jack wasn't here to have fun; he was here with a goal in mind, and because of that he didn't feel inclined to "goof off". It's only been two days, and while his conviction hasn't wavered, he'd much rather be somewhere quiet and alone. Meeting Carly here was an unexpected twist.

He's taken to sitting on one of the rocks far off to the wayside of the lake, tossing smaller ones into the water. It's just something to do while he thinks.

Why not ruin it for him?]


c; wildcard - 103~105
[Jack is probably in the way or being loud, somewhere, somehow. We can hash out an idea on my plurk [plurk.com profile] danderly or just wing it!]

It isn't always loud. Maybe you just didn't find the right place yet. Did you try visiting the animals? [He knows he likes seeing them, and it's usually quiet in there since there aren't any shows or anything.]

[He shrugs after a minute.]

But I think most of us just like it when it's loud. There's lots of people to talk to that way.

[The cat actually manages to look affronted, somehow, despite being a cat, and after a moment turns to face the other way before continuing to lick her paw.

Susan frowns at the "little kid like you" remark, though.]


I know lots about power. But there's no reason you can't have fun, too.

I didn't know throwing rocks in the water was part of getting "true power". I guess it must be though if you don't have time for distractions. [He says it innocently and with a smile, even if it's obvious from his words that he thinks Jack is being stupid.]

[He shrugs a little. This guy seems kind of dumb and kind of like a jerk, but he's trying not to let it bother him.]

Talking to me isn't a waste of time. I'm just doing my job.

[Well, maybe talking to random Carnival members wasn't really his job, but still. He was a Talker so he was going to talk to people.]

It's still my job to talk to people!

Maybe if you didn't get mad at people like a little kid then you wouldn't have to worry about that.

[He shrugs a little.]

I think she probably gave you the one that was most fitting. She must not think your other skills are good enough.
