Carth's magical adventure, ROUND TWO, MOTHERFUCKERS!

[Carthrat]

"Yeah, I should probably have given you something smaller," replies Carthrat, rummaging around. "I mean, I've got enough.. ah, well, dosn't matter. As long as you didn't dislocate your shoulder more than once.

Maybe I should teach you karate.. but can your stomach handle the conditioning, that is the question.."

[Anastasia]

Still massaging her shoulder, she laughs a bit. "I think I'll be inclined to practice my magic more instead," she comments. "Anyhow, are you hungry yet? I'm famished."

[Carthrat]

"Ugh, magic practice," mutters Carthrat. "How does one practice divine magic, anyway? I mean, dosn't it just happen or something?

Not that arcane magic is much better, it's full of weird symbols and words and hand-puppet-movements that don't make any sense yet somehow coalcise into a puddle of grease or something.."

[Anastasia]

She smiles. "Faith magic is about prayer, meditation and drawing on the will of a higher power. Think of it like siphoning electricy for a house off of a main station, Carthrat." she suggests.

[Carthrat]

"I see," replies Carthrat. "But it's not like you build all the devices you use, you just can't afford them. Yeah. I see. Or maybe not.

Either way, yeah, let's eat.."

OOC - Congratulations on post 3000, Rat. Or something.

[Anastasia]

Rachel nods. "Yes, let's go," she agrees, beginning to walk away from the psudeo grassy range...

OOC - Time skip?

[Anastasia]

<Carthrat> Time skip!

----

After eating another cheap meal of food paste and water, you have a free afternoon now.

Polishing off the last of her water, Rachel throws away the cup in a nearby trash can. "Now what? Are you going back to the arena?"

[Carthrat]

"Yeah, need some money. But there's something I want you to do for me," replies Carthrat. "Y'see, I havn't got a chance yet, but can you search our room? There should be a network port there; they tend to be labelled, so you'll know it when you see it.

I needya to find it and plug my computer into it. I've got about a million different kinds of transformers and converters there, just keep plugging stuff in until it fits.

Once you do, you should be able to use it to access the casino network. I want you to look up bounties," he finishes. "I figure, if we find a bounty who happens to own a ship, we might be able to take care of our money problems and our transportation problems in one go."

[Anastasia]

Rachel nods as you go on. "Bounties...any in particular I should look for? Anything I should avoid or watch out for?" she asks.

[Carthrat]

"Well, if someone breaks down the door and tries to kill you, you know what to avoid next time," replies Carthrat. "Offhand, no, nothing."

[Anastasia]

"Right.

Be careful, okay? Don't get yourself hurt, Carthrat."

[Carthrat]

"I ain't the one getting hurt, y'know," replies Carthrat, sauntering off..

[Anastasia]

Rachel chuckles. "Famous last words," she murmurs to no one in particular...

-----

The arena is busy again today, with another line at the registry office. It's a good ten minutes before you get to the 'bot that handles your request...

[Carthrat]

"Tell me, beautiful, who do I get to beat on today?" says Carthrat, picking his nails.

[Anastasia]

"Competitor Carthrat Tanewaki is set to battle in C division. What type of match are you looking for?" the robot asks, going on it's generally preprogrammed path.
