#blackjack flynn

[peteneems]

It's a Monday night in 1999 and you're in Las Vegas. You just lost $200 playing blackjack. You're depressed, you're bored, you're hungry. Hey, it's the Nitro Grill! Why not take what ever cash you have left and have yourself a "Goldberger" while you watch 2 guys named Jerry Flynn and The Wall beat the piss out of each other for your entertainment?

[flynnxhalliday]

where: casino

who: @lluiscarrasco

While he did not normally go anywhere near the casino -- the noises, bright lights, and people were a bit overwhelming for him -- Flynn wanted to surprise his friend. He'd been horrible at reaching out lately and while he'd much rather hang out with Luis outside of his job, Flynn was still hesitant to reach out. He didn't want to bother him if he was busy. He didn't want to make Luis feel like he had to hang out with Flynn. So this was his solution.

It took him about ten minutes of walking around before he found his best friend. He smiled as he walked up to him. "So which slots are hot tonight?" Flynn asked, trying to sound like he knew what he was talking about. "Or is blackjack... on fire?"

Lock from The Nightmare Before Christmas

Name: Lorcan Kane Age: 26 Profession: Blackjack Dealer at Snake Eyes Pronouns: He/They FC suggestions: Rome Flynn, Ross Butler, Face claim: Ryan Potter Availability: Taken

The streets of Godscobh were not kind to Lorcan growing up, but frankly, he wasn't very kind in return. His parents were strictly Catholic, which Lorcan resisted at every turn, going as far as to spook his mother with devil drawings and costumes whenever he could. Authority and Lorcan did not mix well, resulting in increasing detentions, suspensions, and a trip to juvenile detention hall when he was only 15 for all his acts of truancy and vandalism. And no matter how his parents tried to control him, Lorcan would always find a way to rebel against whatever BS rules they made up for him.

Now, despite what one might think when looking at his juvie record, Lorcan actually had quite the mind for mathematics and systems - he just hated the structure of school. With a little help from his parole officer in high school, he was actually able to graduate a semester early. College was never going to be in the cards for him, but he loved getting his independence as fast as humanly possible (and his parents were glad to be rid of their devil child). The very second he turned 18, Lorcan bid goodbye to any of his familial connections with his middle fingers held high, never to see them again.

The job market in Godscobh has never been great, so Lorcan did have to lie and cheat his way into a few gigs to make money when he first got his freedom. Watering down vodka in the back rooms of bars, swiping restaurant tips off tables, and even a few short stints dealing pixie dust. It wasn't until Lorcan was old enough to get into gambling halls that he started making bank counting cards. He got away with the tricks he could pull at the card games for about 2-3 months, until he was pulled aside by the security guards one fateful evening.

Lorcan thought the good ride he'd had was going to be over, but instead he was offered a job - deal the cards himself, make sure the house always wins, and he gets an itty-bitty cut of the evening profits. He wasn't given much of a choice in the matter, considering the alternative was to get his kneecaps broken, so he accepted. Lorcan's got a mind on him that very few know about, but over the years they've worked together, the Boogie Man has shaped and guided those skills in ways Lorcan never would've expected. He's been working for Oberron for almost 6 years now, and if Lorcan's not careful, he might be entrusted with a lot more of the underbelly's responsibility to keep the town covered in filth.

Notable character information: Lorcan is part of Boogie's Boys, a fearsome gang to rival the Lost Boys & Godscobh Gators.

The entire theater was crying and sobbing during Guardians of the Galaxy heaven scene, and my aunt was using up the last of her napkins.

Whispering guy #1: Wait.......what?

Whispering Guy #2: Lylla is his wife in the comics.

Whispering guy #1:........... WHAT THE FU-

🤣 Ok, so the guy didn't scream at the end, but it was still funny.

​Yeah, Rocket and Lylla were always in love. But Marvel has the tendency to be realistic, so they aged the animals realistically. So, at most, Lylla should be 6 months to 1 year older than Rocket. I'll admit, I was confused at first, too, but hey. This would also explain why Rocket looked like he was the only one aging while everyone else looked the same. What's confusing is that Floor is supposed to be the youngest. She was still a kid before she died. And yet she was the 1st to get experimented on?

Would I have preferred it if Marvel let go of their realism and aged the animals like humans instead? No, I always knew they were lovers, and I just told myself animals age and matuer faster than humans. But for those who haven't read the comics or played the games, I can't imagine the confusion you had. 😂 An explanation, Lylla was married to a guy named Blackjack O'Hare for business purposes. He becomes a villain, and Rocket and Lylla fall in love. I do like that they changed Blackjack O'Hare from a grown male hare to Floor, a little girl bunny. Gets rid of the useless love triangle.

And if it makes you feel any better about the film, Disney has done worse. Meg from Hercules was 27, while Hercules barely turned 18. Yeah, Hercules turns into a God later, making age meaningless, but I can't watch the scene where Meg tries to find Hercules' weakness. To me, it's a woman seducing a child that should be in high school. Then we have Flynn, who was 26 while Rupunzel was still 17, just turned 18. Again, a grown man flirting with a kid in high school. To protect my love for Tangled, I just pretend Flynn is 20. And then we have that film about a million hier 11 year old boy dating a lady in her 30s? They kiss, and she asks him to call her when he's 18?

Yeah, an animal couple made by Stan Lee is the least disturbing compared to Disney stuff.

Cirque Du Sol-Egg Troupe

(Copying description from DeviantArt..)

The IDW Sonic Comics – AKA Archie 2.0 – fucking suck, so I'm making up my own version in my head, with blackjack and hookers.. also clowns.

Starline's a perma-simp, as nature intended even if Flynn-flam didn't. He knows his fucking place underneath Eggman's boot and loves every minute of it - partially because Eggman isn't being written to be as stupid as physically possible for a guy with 300 IQ points. Doesn't get any overpowered gadgets that make other characters go “Ermahgerd! Dat's so amazingly cool! Ur so cool Starline!”.. I mean I guess the hypno-glove could do that..

Made Surge & Kit into clowns because they're a fucking joke. And renamed them to Comedy and Tragedy. They both basically volunteered for cyborgification in order to avoid dealing with their own mental problems.

Comedy's a chaotic clown lady with electrokinesis and complimentary ultra high-voltage joy buzzers implanted in her hands and feet for lethal handshakes and short bursts of lightning speed – she's not beating Sonic in a race any time soon. None of that “I'm sooo much fasterer than u!” Bullshit

Tragedy's a sad clown boy with hydrokinesis and a set of cyber eyes modded with super soaker functionality, always carries a pair of seltzer bottles around on the sides of his water tank backpack.

Together, they'll force you to laugh until you cry.

Finished the refs for the rest of the main characters 

also added my ocs to REALLY figure out their heights and yeah they shrunk 

[edieteller]

[ olivia cooke. cis woman. she/her. ] did you hear that edith teller is currently living in charming, california? they’re a twenty seven year old who have been in town for about twenty seven years, and are a bartender at la luna. it’s known around town that they’re quite charming but can also be unforgiving. people in charming always say they’re reminded of edie when thinking of black lingerie and red nail polish, monopolizing the jukebox, whiskey bottles on top of the water tower, lingering whispers in her wake, winks over the bar top.

more about edith under the cut!

[tw of injury and paralyzation, suicide, jail, cancer, death, assault and gambling]

- her grandfather was a founding/early member of the club back in the 50s, however edie never got to know the man because he got into a bike accident in the late 80s that left him paralyzed from the waist down. viewing himself as a burden, the man died by suicide several short months after the accident

- edie’s father was patched into the club the day of her grandfather’s funeral and remained a respected member of the club for over 35 years

- edie grew up very aware of the club and what it meant to her family and community, her father often giving long-winded lectures to herself and her siblings about the importance of loyalty and brotherhood. she always knew what nights were ‘church’ and viewed her fathers peers as uncles as she grew up.

- always a spitfire, edie had her fair share of trouble in school discipline wise -- often sassing at teachers and getting into scuffles in the hallway -- but no one could ever say she was a bad student. she often tested at the top of her class amd maintained a 4.0 average. as a result, she recieved a full academic scholarship to UC Berkley with plans to study pre-law.

- towards the end of her senior year of college, edith’s father was diagnosed with stage four lung cancer. upon graduation, edie put off her plans to apply to law school in favor of staying in charming to help care for her ailing father. even after several surgeries and dependent on an oxygen tank, her father fought stubbornly for four years and showed up to church religiously until his passing several months ago.

-after spending nearly a lifetime turning down his advances and flirtation, edie began to see ulysses flynn in a differnt light when she came home from college. after a month or two of fucking in secret, edie ended up breaking her biggest personal rule: never date a biker. it was big time love, and the two of them were well-matched and content for roughly three years, until uly ended up in jail for assaulting a man who had threatened edie while she was walking home from the bar one night. they came to an impasse over the future of their relationship in the prison visiting room, and have not spoken since.

-edith has worked as a bartender at la luna for about five years since she came home from college. she’s a very charming bartender and loves to get to know regulars and check in on their lives. she’s an expert on getting good tips and flirting harmlessly. (thought there was once a fight when a drunk girl accused her of trying to steal her man -- and, in fairness, maybe edie was). regulars at the bar are familiar with her shouts of ‘who turned this shit on?!’ when someone makes an undesirable jukebox choice, and she’s been known to give free shots to girls crying over asshole boyfriends. 

- on her nights off, she’s often found at ace of spades casino at the poker and blackjack table. she’s an excellent bluff at poker and has taught herself how to count cards. she’s also a notorious pool shark, and has no problem taking advanatge of cocky challengers as they pass through town.

-while she as been closely affliated with the devil’s disciples all her life, her brothers currently being a patched member and a prospect respectively, edie wants no real part of club life -- she thinks it will interfere with her future in law

-she is currently taking online classes in law, hoping to catch up on some credits and go back to school full time eventually

COMMECTIONS:

-family: @landcnteller (younger brother), @xavierteller (older brother)

-childhood friends: @felonford​, @jaseybomba​, @travcameron​, @dannymitchell​

-ex-boyfriend: @ulyssesflynn​

WANTED CONNECTIONS

- friendships! people she has known since childhood, cradle to grave besties, people who grew up around the club like she did, high school friends, and friends from work! 

- bar regulars!  people who come into la luna nightly or weekly who edie has gotten to know and look forward to talking to

-family! i hope for edie’s brothers to arrive in the future but i would also love for her to have aunts, uncles, and cousins in town!

really i’m open to just about anything currently so if you have ideas i would love to chat about them on discord!

What A Tangled Web We Weave

Summary: “My name’s Percy Jackson, and this is the story of how I died. Don’t worry, this is actually a very fun story. And the truth is, it isn't even mine. I’m just the dude that dies. This is the story of a boy named Jason. And it starts with the sun."

Percy Jackson, criminal extraordinaire, hides out in a seemingly abandoned tower in the forest after a daring crown heist. There he meets a mysterious, beautiful man named Jason who blackmails him into taking a road trip to see the floating lanterns in the capitol. And did he mention that Jason's hair is 70ft long and glows when he sings? No? It's probably not important, don't worry about it.

Archie & Friends: Superheroes #1

Archie & Friends: Superheroes #1 Archie Comics 2021 Stories by Ian Flynn Pencilled by Pat & Tim Kennedy & Jeff Schultz Inked by Jim Amash & Bob Smith Coloured by Glenn Whitmore Lettered by Jack Morelli    Get ready for some super heroics featuring Archie and the Gang… along with some very super appearances by classic Archie characters like Bob Phantom and Blackjack!    My day is always infinitely better when there’s an Archie comic to read.  You cannot be in a bad mood once you see one it’s just that simple.  I’m always so impressed with the fact that Archie is able to be the epitome of all-ages storytelling and they lead industry in setting the standard that everyone else strives to emulate.  Also I adore that we see Bob Phantom and Blackjack within these pages, I am a sucker for those old time heroes who now end up in the public domain category after all they are the ones who paved the way for the heroes we know and love today.  So whether or not it’s hot and summer outside or rainy and miserable this is the way to keep yourself happy, it’s a great way to spend an afternoon or a least for a little bit.    I am super impressed with the way that this is being told.  Each one has this complete feel to it and how the story & plot development we see through how the sequence of events unfold as well as how the reader learns information is presented exceptionally well.  The character development that we see is sensational and how we see the dialogue, the character interaction and how they act and react to the situations and circumstances flesh them out and keep them feeling exactly the way we expect them to.  The pacing for each one is absolutely perfect and as they take us through the pages revealing more and more of the story it’s easy to be drawn into each adventure.    I love how we see this being structured and how the layers within the stories are seen.  The way that we see everything working together to create the story’s ebb & flow and how this moves the story forward is beautifully rendered.  There is a very natural flow to the sequence of events and it’s why each vignette feels a lot larger than it really is.  There aren’t many folks around who can make the story feel like it’s expanded just by the way they structure those eight or so pages this way.    The interiors here are sensational!  The way we see the linework and how it’s utilised with the varying weights to create the detail work is amazing.  I love the fact that this doesn’t need fancy tricks or overly worked pencils to create what we see and that it can still be so expressive in how we see the faces, facial expressions and body language is extraordinary.  Even the way the we see backgrounds and how they are incorporated into the composition within the panels to create the depth perception, sense of scale and the overall sense of size and scope to the story is fantastic.   ​    I have to say that this is wonderfully crafted book.  The stories are lighthearted and full of heroic antics as only Archie can get involved in.  I keep saying that this is something to pass around the family and talk about afterwards at a device free meal, dinner comes to mind.  There are so many aspect that appeal to any and all age groups so there are things that each will notice that the others won’t and therein lies why this is the perfect all-ages book and symbolic of what Archie is able to do on a regular basis.

What are your thoughts on the ending of The Ancient Gods - Part One (if you have completed it yet)?

Haven’t completed The Holt yet, no way in hell am I tackling bloody Blood Makyrs without stocking up on extra lives (and hopefully not glitching into another bad state, do not skip cutscenes or go into water right after triggering a checkpoint, folks!)

BUT! I have watched livestreams, and it kinda feels fitting that the Dark Lord - quite possibly the single deadliest foe yet - is alternate universe Doom Slayer. This is after all the same Dark Lord that, after his displeased reaction to the Khan Makyr’s death, the Slayer doesn’t seem to argue when Douchebot Sammy tells them they need to get the hell out of dodge, and the Slayer isn’t exactly known for agreeing with Samur. I’m eager for them to duke it out, but also kinda scared shitless Part Two’s going to crank the difficulty spike dial past 11 up to Roll For Anal Circumference.

Part of me also likes to joke that Dark Lord!Slayer is just Flynn Taggart from the noncanon Doom novels (where the demons aren’t actually demons and he never actually goes to hell which is the stupidest thing I’ve ever heard) and he decides this whole thing is bullshit I’ll make my own Hell! With demonic blackjack and succubus hookers!

In Honor of Eugene Fitzherbert Appreciation Week - An Extensive Fitzy Playlist [Part 1]

Over the past few months, I couldn’t help but notice that people have had difficulty fleshing out their playlists of Eugene-centric content. I am happy to tell you that when it comes to Eugene (and Flynn) that my playlist currently has nearly 15 hours of music..... I will give the playlist to you in parts (nobody wants to look through 200+ songs at once.) Fair warning -- this playlist will include every possible iteration of Eugene’s life from beginning to projected end, including the time he went by Flynn Rider, both the early years and the later years. Sometimes it’s the chorus that I feel fits the character, sometimes it’s a particular lyric or two, as opposed to the entire song, sometimes it’s the overall tone/idea of a song, sometimes it’s the title. I tried to include songs of just about every era....from the 1950s to today, although many of them are cover versions. There’s a handful of slightly NSFW songs but that’s mostly for people with very delicate sensibilities. I will mark them. There are at least 5 parts to this playlist and I will be adding more. For Part 2 click here; for Part 3, click here; for Part 4 click here;  for Part 5 click here. For all the parts together, look up the hashtag Ladyfawkes Eugene Playlist. You may also look up “Eugene Fitzherbert as a playlist (incl. Flynn Rider) on Spotify. It’s a WIP and not as tailored as my listings here on Tumblr but I’m open to having followers there too. Cheers and happy listening!! ^_^

Blackjack!Jungkook + making him watch Disney movies for the first time.

EXCELLENT IDEA TIFF

“Okay,” you say, settling back on the couch. Drawing both legs into your chest, you stare. “Pick.”

Jungkook glances between the five movies you have laid out on the coffee table. “Whoa.”

You laugh, reaching out for some popcorn. “What?”

“There’s just... so many.”

“There’s not that many,” you counter, surveying the pile. “I picked a varied selection. There’s The Little Mermaid, Aladdin, Tangled, The Emperor’s New Groove and Coco. Something for everyone!”

“Okay, but...” Jungkook stares at them, panicked. “Where do I start?”

You laugh, settling back in the seat. “Okay, do you want to laugh or cry?”

“Laugh.”

You sweep both Coco and The Little Mermaid out of the way. “Quirky, or no?”

“Erm... let’s start non-quirky.”

“Okay!” Grabbing a movie, you stand from the couch and pop Tangled into the DVD player. “Let’s start with Flynn Rider, then.”

Curling up on the couch beside Jungkook, you slide both arms around his waist. His t-shirt is soft, smelling like the fabric softener Seokjin always buys for the mansion. When Jungkook said he had never watched a Disney movie in his lifetime, you were at once both shocked and appalled. 

Movies and TV were one of the few escapes you and Jay had growing up; whenever any Disney movie came on, you made it a point to watch. It was never clear when the power would be turned off for some late bill or another.

Jungkook pulls you close, nestling your head under his chin. The opening credits flick over the screen, complete with Disney castle, moat and floating lanterns. Glancing upwards, you lean back to watch Jungkook’s expression.

“Stop doing that,” he says. His arm tightens around you.

“Doing what?”

“Watching my face to see if I like the same parts you do.”

Laughing, you lower your head to his chest. “Fine, fine. I’ll let you watch.”

When the movie starts, you cannot help yourself. You peek. Jungkook laughs at all the right parts, earnestly watching the situation unfold. His interest wavers though, when you mumble something about him looking like Flynn Rider.

Sitting up straighter, he clicks pause on the TV. “What was that?”

“You know...” Waving a hand, you gesture weakly at nothing. “You... kinda do that smolder thing, too.”

Jungkook’s grin widens. “Do I?”

Cheeks heating, you curl up tighter into him. “Yeah, you know...”

Jungkook abruptly pulls The Face, pursing his lips and raising one brow. You cannot help it, you laugh and he grabs you even closer. 

“Like that?” he says.

“Yeah, like that.”

The movie continues, interspersed with Jungkook’s exclamations and commentary. (”Okay, NO WAY would a frying pan be that effective as a weapon! If it were, Seokjin would’ve used one a long time ago.” “This Mother Gothel’s a bitch but damn, can she sing. Also, she’s giving me serious Yoongi vibes.” “Why is this chick always barefoot? Where are her shoes? Did Mother Gothel give her a wardrobe of dresses and NO shoes?”)

By the time it reaches the big, emotional love song, Jungkook is staring enraptured at the screen. You smile at this, kissing his t-shirt and when the movie comes to an end, he sighs in deep satisfaction. 

"That was awesome,” he says, tracing circles on your arm. “Which one’s next?”

He looks so eager, almost like a puppy, you cannot help but laugh. “Oh, yeah?” you tease. “What’re you thinking? You ready to cry?”

Jungkook’s eyes widen when you slide Coco from the pile.

“Alright,” he says seriously. “But if I do, that’s on you. I will accept payment in the form of sexual favors, baked goods and compliments to my shooting skills.”

“You’re on,” you grin, wriggling away to switch out the movies.

Someone might love a ‘Flynn and Lucy pull a heist together’ fic of the hurt/comfort and/or first kiss variety. Ahem. For reasons. And also it may be someone’s birthday if that has any bearing on your pen. 😁

If there are things more complicated than getting into the famous Monte Carlo Casino in Monaco in 1881 – the year that a bankrupt textile tradesman from West Yorkshire named Joseph Jagger famously “breaks the bank” at roulette and wins two million francs in two days – Garcia Flynn does not want to hear about it. He does suppose it could actually be worse, since casinos are the most famously paranoid places on the planet and even for two someones of his and Rufus’s professional skill sets, outsmarting the entire place in the 21st century could be a challenge. At least in the late nineteenth century, they mostly rely on the gentleman’s-honor method of preventing cheating, though surly white-gloved individuals with large sticks still prowl around the opulent gaming floor and spectacularly eject anyone who is suspiciously good at blackjack. One such unfortunate just went flying past, landing in a crumpled heap beneath the magnificently columned portico while drunk dandies in hansom cabs shouted insults, and nobody even looked up from their drinks. Rich people.

“So remind me,” Rufus says. “Aside from fulfilling every single one of my MIT nerd dreams about winning jackpots at Monte Carlo, exactly what we are doing here?”

“We’re supposed to keep an eye out for whatever bastard is replicating Jagger’s methods to win buckets of instant money.” Flynn himself thinks there must be easier ways, but the part of him that loves drama can’t help but admire this level of Bond-villain shenanigans. Besides, the Monte Carlo Casino is currently a seedy playground for all of Europe’s rich and dissolute, you could blackmail half of high society with one good sweep through here, and the ancient but impoverished House of Grimaldi, some years as yet from its Princess Grace glamour days, is too dependent on their cash to do anything about it. Oh, Monaco, Flynn thinks. You really never change.

He spots Lucy across the way, glancing around while maintaining the correct icily regal bearing. Flynn bites a grin, strides over and offers her his arm. “Princess Amelia Mignonette Grimaldi Thermopolis Renaldi,” he says, since the royal house is sprawling enough to admit a few previously unknown members, and it will hopefully prevent them from being questioned – at least at first. “If I may have the honor?”

————–

The good news is, they stop the heist and engage in a very dramatic cab chase through the narrow, twisting streets of Monaco, and Wyatt and Flynn each shoot a malfeasant in a top hat and drop them into the harbor. The bad news is that, well, Flynn himself gets shot. Not that bad, just glancingly, but enough that they need to sit down and patch him up before trying to trek back to the Lifeboat. It’s a pain in the ass more than anything, but Flynn would prefer not to die of sepsis from some idiot and his misshapen lump of low-grade lead. So, while Wyatt keeps a lookout and Rufus wonders if they have totally blown their in at the casino (Flynn is somewhat miffed that his current state of perforation does not appear to be bothering Rufus, but then Rufus poignantly sees him as indestructible) it falls to Lucy to dig a damn bullet out of his side. Romantic.

“You don’t have to do this,” Flynn says, wincing. He will definitely want to get a decent shot of antibiotics once they’re back in the present. “I know you don’t like blood.”

“That was….a while ago.” Lucy doesn’t seem thrilled, but her hands are steady, and she doesn’t look away. “And it’s different. When it’s you.”

Flynn tries not to look around too sharply, not least because she has some scalpel probably recently used by a Victorian quack to dissect a stolen corpse (though well doused in carbolic acid) and he should not distract her. He has to admit that this would be tricky to do by himself, and he sits stoically as Lucy, whispering apologies under her breath, finds the entry wound, makes a brief cut, and the ball falls into her hand with a wet plop. Only then does she look up, examining his face as if it’s the only thing that matters in the world. “Did I hurt you?”

“Mmm.” Flynn has obviously had far worse, and it was a necessary pain. “It’s fine. Go ahead and just bandage me up, we can do the rest at home.”

Lucy hesitates, then does so. Flynn can feel every touch of her hands on him, the light brushes on his chest through his shirt (white, billowy, and open-necked once the cravat has been removed, and while modesty may be a virtue, he knows that he wears it far better than Wyatt). He finds himself holding his breath, trying not to react too much or too visibly, getting knotted up in his chest and the world hot and stiff and bothered (or maybe that’s just him). He’s completely forgotten that he was shot an hour ago by the time Lucy says, “I think that should do it. Let’s get back to the Lifeboat.”

“Ah. Yes.” Flynn has to take a moment to reconnect his brain to the rest of his body. He is having trouble breathing for reasons entirely unrelated to the two-inch-deep hole in his ribcage. “Yes. Let’s do that.”

Lucy offers him a hand up – adorable of her, really, given the height difference – and Flynn thinks he’s fine until he stands up and the pain hits. He grimaces, not wanting her to see it, not wanting her to think it’s her fault, but she can sense it instantly. Her hands fan out on his chest, steadying him, which helps somewhat with one problem and not at all with another. “Garcia?”

“I’m fine,” Flynn repeats stoutly, as he has for most of his adult life. “You’re a damn good surgeon, you know.”

Lucy smiles tremulously, chin tilted back to look up at him, hands still lingering. They are close, their faces are closer, and only a breath of the Monaco sunset sea parts them, easily bridged. Flynn’s hands burn with the desire to pull her closer, to have, to hold, to –

Lucy’s eyelashes flutter. Her lips are opening, and he could, he could –

“Hey!” Rufus yells. “Are we going or what?”

(They are, and Flynn is grateful, but when they get back to the 21st century and he has assured himself of not contracting some grisly infection, he wonders how much anyone would mind it, really, if he was to murder Rufus again.)

closed starter for @kit-charming​ location: st. lover’s festival

while a part of flynn desperately wanted to take advantage of the bars and booths selling different alcoholic drinks at the festival, he knew he needed to keep at least somewhat of a clear head. at least if he wanted to make a profit today. a whole event dedicated to getting drunk and gambling was like a pick-pocketers’ dream playground. so many people were running fast and loose with their cash, barely paying attention to how much they’ve spent or earned, giving flynn the perfect opportunity to swipe a few bucks without anyone even noticing. his gaze was scanning the crowds and the different card tables and gambling games for his next vicitim when he spotted the perfect mark. over the years, flynn had honed and perfected his money radar to the point where one look was usually all he needed to figure out whether someone was rich or not. and this boy, well he practically screamed of coming for money, so there was no hesitation in his actions as flynn slide up into the open seat at the gambling table beside him. “this might make me sound stupid... but any chance you have any clue how to play this game?” he asked, despite knowing perfectly well the rules and cheats to a game as simple as blackjack. but it was important to get the boy talking, let any guard that he may potentially ahve up come down before going right in for the kill of snatching his wallet.
