Characters: Ariadne and Gawain
Date/Time: Starting Friday, August 5.
Location: Lincoln, NE
Rating: TBD
Warnings: Potential weapons-grade cuteness
Summary: Ariadne comes to Lincoln for a weekend visit.
After a long flight, the plane finally touched down in the city. The view below hadn't been much to look at once they had gotten over the mountains, but the city itself seemed bustling enough from what she could tell.
Walking into the airport, Ariadne looked for Gawain among the people milling there, both on the upper levels and looking over to the balcony.

He commented, "Visitors to Lincoln remark on how green a city it is. We've got a lot of nice parks here, which is good. As you know, green is a rather important color to me."

Some time passed. They drove across a highway that cut through the middle of the city, and then he pulled into an elegant strip mall area south of the highway. They finally arrived at a small white building at the foot of a green slope.
As he parked the Taurus in front of the restaurant, he said, "Here we are."

"As long as it got things solved, I was happy to help," she said, "What about you? Enjoy being a 'Water' boy for the godlings?"

He took a sip of said Element from his glass. "Did you get much of a chance to talk to the other godlings?"

He ate some spoonfuls of the spicy mulligatawny soup brought before the main meal. "So ... what are your thoughts on this whole competing pantheon business?"

"Besides, it isn't like being a reborn princess gets me much in the way of perks."

He smiled. "Perks, eh? What are your hopes and dreams in this life, milady?"
no subject
"As for hopes and dreams... I just want to get by in this world. Maybe give a little something back. Solve a big problem of some kind, maybe, if people would get out of their way enough to let it be solved."

He leaned forward. "You're a game maker, and I have had some programming experience. What if the godlings collaborated on a game that helped get our message across? The most realistic mythology game ever?"

"Yeah? And, what sort of platform are you thinking? What style?" she asked.

"I remember those as well. Still, strategy and RPG games are still selling well, especially if they have a major combat focus. Halo, Dragon Age, Mass Effect... What all did you have in mind for something like that?"
