Fantasy Dons Pan-Dimensional Diner [reboot]

[Midnightchan123]

"Alright, we have enough people to begin, if anyone wants to join they can just hop in" *she opens the box of cards and passes huge handfulls to Tod and Dosey, shuffling her own part of the deck* "

so you have black and white cards, we draw from the white card and then whomever...hmm...poop doesnt exactly work here...so whomever got a drink last plays a black card and shows everyone, then you have to choose the card or cards that best fit the black card...house rules are you can bet a black card if you have one and play two cards, if one of your cards are chosen you can keep the black card you bet and the one played, if you find a blank discard it in the discard pile then draw a new one, we each start with five cards and whomever gets seven black cards wins, the card czar does not play a card when they draw a black card because they choose a card for the winner"

"Anett" climbed on top of the chair. Again having a hard time getting herself up the chair. She hugged her stuffed animal tightly in her seat. "Anett" tried to catch all of the fox's gameplay mechanics and rules. After the explanation She didn't caught any of the explanation. She just sat quitely and stared to fox creature.

"Eh, on second thought, I'll have that root pop later." Ward said to Don as he walked over to the human with fox ears. "I'm up for cards. What sort o' card game are we playin'?"

When she began explaining the instructions, Ward spaced out after five seconds of listening. "Oh! Ah, could you give a shorter version of what you just said there? I kinda spaced out."

(Sorry for such a short post.)

It was somewhat rare that the diner's guests gathered in one place, and the concept of a ... card game? ... got Tsuna's interests up. Sighing with a bit of hesitative regret, she slid off the couch, swallowed down the last of her water (of which there wasn't much), and padded over to the table where the card game was being set up. She listened carefully to the rules, understood not a word of them, and finally decided just to watch. Dragging a drum - no, a literal drum... like the musical instrument - from one of the nearby tables, where it was being used as a stool, she sat and crossed one knee over the other to observe whatever chaos was to unfold next. It was always chaos. It was never -not- chaos around here. Something about Don's just demanded that it be so.

Dosey shrank in her seat as the card game began to draw in more and more people. She scooted and squished herself into the corner where the booth met the wall.

The fox girl and the more normal (relatively speaking) humanoids, she at least had a conceptual framework for. She knew what foxes were, and Twilight had brought back photographs of the strange people from the mirror world, so she more or less knew what humans were; and there were plenty of creatures in Equestria that were combinations of two or more other creatures (such as griffons, and pretty much any of the various monsters that attacked Ponyville on a seemingly weekly basis). So it wasn't too much of a leap from what she was already familiar with.

Then there was the thing made of jelly and the thing made of fire(?). And the nymph. And the talking cat. She decided the cat was the least weird thing she'd seen today. At least she'd read stories with talking cats in them before.

They all seemed nice enough, though. She focused on listening to Kia's instructions and on keeping her trembling to a minimum as she drew some cards - an act which was both blatantly impossible, and probably par for the course here.

Greycoat- after recovering from his hard fall to the floor and subsequent yoga session to realign his spine- hopped up on an empty chair to investigate this game.

An of course, he was consciously aware of the beanbag lurking nearby, like a dog waiting for scraps. (I mean, sooner or later someone was going to throw the cat again, right?)

Meanwhile, Don could hear Boomer in the back trying his old "Fire and Brimstone" technique on the wood stove again, which involved dousing the kindling with kerosean and then cussing up a wrathfull blue streak till it burst into flames. It worked about 50% of the time, but then other times he'd just get riled up and try to kill it with a crowbar.

BOOM!!!

Hup. There we go.

Don looked down at his watch. Things were getting busy. Where the heck was Yahlie?

*Kia chuckled at everyones confusion as she quickle and deftly handed out cards to everyone before drawing a black card* "just for example I'm going to play a quick round to show you all the mechanics of this game, shouldn't be too difficult to grasp, so we will say the table is the card czar for this round and our seats are the other players" *she drew five cards and flipped the black one and read it aloud, it was a particularly disgusting sounding card then she delt out the five cards to the black cards* "then the rest of the players choose a card that fits the black card or makes it funny or even more disturbing and the czar chooses his favourite and that being gets the black card then it moves to the person sitting at the tables left and it continues till someone wins....there are some cards that ask for multiple cards and thats easy, first card you want read on the bottom and the next card on top so on and so forth....we have every expansion and if someone needs a refference I have this refference guide explaining cards...any questions before we begin?"

The cat had a serious look on its face, nodding as it listened to the instructions. It was really weird to see a cat wearing glasses and had its paw on its chin as if it was deep in thought. "I have no idea what those meant." The cat said in a serious voice and deadpan face. "But I'm still gonna win. That's how great I am." The cat gloated to the other players despite having no idea how the game works. "Hey butler! Sit beside me, a butler should always be near his master at all times!" The cat called out to the fox when the cat saw him. Usually the cat would scold him for messing up, but the cat'll let is slide for now.

"Anett" Just "sat" in her seat playing with the bear. Making it dance and shaking it up and down, despite the cards already were laid down and distributed in front of her. "Anett" stared to the cards for a few seconds before returning her attention to the creepy stuffed bear. Obviously, she has shown no interest of playing the game. Her glossy lips were moving as if she was singing a song without actually singing it, no sound nor voice was heard from the amoeba. "Anett" continued to shake it up and down for a few minutes before hugging it tightly again.

Tod looked at Anett and smiled. "Glad you enjoy it little one." He the looked at the cards in front of him. "I think I understand." He looked at the fox girl. "So we match the white cards to the blank or blanks on the black card? Did I get it right?"

At that very moment the door of the bar slowly creaked open as an ominous figure stood highlighted in its frame. Standing there for a few seconds with what appeared to be a ratty looking black umbrella, the figure slowly bent low as to fit inside the doorway. Soon after it rose to full height and turned to close the door behind it before closing its umbrella to reveal.

"Oh dear me," the grotesque abomination said with a chuckle as he straightened his long dark outfit and brushed some stray rain from his shoulders "apologies, apologies. Last place I was at had quite a nasty storm occurring within it, may have tracked a bit of water inside."

He removed his hat in order to check if there was any noticeable water on it, more easily exposing the twitching and convulsing mass of fingers that made up his face. A nearby costumer could hold it in no longer and quickly pushed pass the new arrival in order to heave outside.

The newcomer watched him with his eyeholes made of finger-flesh before shaking his head with a smile "A tad rude eh? No matter, I suppose."

He laughed to himself before raising his umbrella and jabbing it tip first into his eye socket, the mass of fingers acting quickly to draw the item inside of him. As he did so, he placed his hat back upon his head before shoving his free hand into his neck and yanking out a dry washcloth he began drying himself off with.

"Now then, I do request a-" the nightmarish figure paused before he could order as his eyeholes chanced upon a gathering of folk who seemed in the midst of some type of game "Oh! Having some fun are we?" he said with a chuckle before slowly inching over to peak at what it was they were doing.

 

[fuil]

Tod turned to th figure and smiled. "Hey I'm Tod, and the little one beside me I call Anett." He offered to shake the mans hand. "What may your name be?" He didn't even waver at the mans appearance. "You remind me of someone.......but I can't quite place it."

"Ah, many know me as Mr. Knucklebones." the Finger-Fleshed man tipped his hat before extending a hand towards the Green-Haired Fellow "but many call me Knucks for short."

His empty gaze turned to Anett for a moment, who he nodded to in greeting "Aw, now isn't she just the most adorable little thing?"

He turned back to Tod and gave a small shrug "Perhaps I simply have one of those likenesses?" he said before giving a laugh "Oh, but surely your memory will return to you with time, boy."

 

[Vagabond Spectre]

"Anett" noticed the newcomer as she played with the bear. She stared deeply into the newcomer's unique face. His unique fleshed out look was certainly just eye catching. "Anett" stopped playing and gave her full attention to them. She simply gave the finger flesh man a heart warming smile as a form of greeting. The way he talks was something "Anett" can get used to. She looked back to her bear and suddenly bit softly on it's right ear. She wasn't actually chewing on it due to lack of teeth more like sucking on it.

 

[CrimsonEclipse]

The cat raised its eyebrow at the newcomer. He's powerful, not as powerful as itself, but still powerful. But, damn. "You're one ugly mothafuck." The cat blurted out. "You're powerful, not as powerful as me since no one is, but damn you're ugly. With powers like yours you should be able to shape shift or at least assume a different form, but there's something wrong with your head for stayin that way." The cat said to him.

[Raku]

Mariq Xen'iith
The door pushed open as a short figure stepped in followed by a tail. Mariq appeared to have some dirt staining his fur on his arms and lower legs. He was without a top but he did have a pair of "shorts" on as one would call them. No "shoes" either as if he tried to put them on they wouldn't fit. It seemed as if he had just come from a hunt. Taking note of the regulations out front he let his bow, quiver, and knife lay. Many wouldn't believe so but he was royalty back in Solaira. He looked among the customers of the diner and as he did he found that most had one thing in common, they were called than him. Mariq looked to the patron beside him. They didn't seem to be feeling well as he could smell the vomit from outside. Not wanting to question the reason, he merely made his way closer to the bar. Taking a rest on a stool, he looked to the bartender and owner of the establishment, Don. "Good day isn't it?" he asked, his voice not deep but not too high.

Knucks leaned back and prepared to ask Tod more about the game he was playing when the cat began talking. The tempter tilted his grotesque head at the feline, his eyeholes blinking several times as he looked. But soon a smile spread across his face and he began laughing "Well this band is just fully of adorable ones now isn't it?" he said before placing a hand to his chin and thinking for a moment "I think I'll call you Mr. Whiskers. Certainly fits for a wittle pussy-cat, no?"

He then turned back to the rest of them "So, gals and gents, what pray tell are you playing?"

"You're one ugly mothafuck."

Dosey Doe's reaction to the first real curse word she's ever heard. She has no idea what it means.

 

[CrimsonEclipse]

"I dare you, I double dare you muthafackah!" The cat shrieked, arching its back and hissing at the man. "Try to call me that again and I'll pull you inside out, it might make you even more appealing Noodle Face." The cat said before calming down.

The cat watched the pony's reaction to his cursing. "Psst, hey pony!" The cat called out. The cat let out a string of curse words in hopes of seeing the pony's reaction. "Now, let's get started so I can whoop all your asses." The cat said after cursing.

Dosey attempted to cover her ears and her face at the same time. It didn't go very well. Her normal pale pink color was deepening to scarlet, her ears especially, which were flattened against her head. She continued to shrink into her seat. It probably wouldn't be long until she ended up sliding under the table.

How a creature covered in fur can visibly blush is left as an exercise for the reader.

Tod looked at the cat and then said. "Hey mister Whiskers catch." He threw another cursed fire ball at the cat. "That's for cursing in front of a kid." He looked over to Anett. "Forget what the cat said, he's a meanie."

 

[MrMopp]

At that very moment the door of the bar slowly creaked open as an ominous figure stood highlighted in its frame. Standing there for a few seconds with what appeared to be a ratty looking black umbrella, the figure slowly bent low as to fit inside the doorway.

Greycoats fur stood on end when he saw-or rather, felt- that thing walk over.

Tod looked at the cat and then said. "Hey mister Whiskers catch." He threw another cursed fire ball at the cat. "That's for cursing in front of a kid." He looked over to Anett. "Forget what the cat said, he's a meanie."

Greycoat sighed and shook his head.

 

[GrieveWriter]

"And a talking pony! With a color scheme of the candy-variety." Knucks put a hand to his grotesque finger lips and laughed after catching sight of Dosey "Quite the collection of character's to be gathered indeed."

He glanced towards Tod just in time to catch sight of the fireball "Now now, though exposing this tiny creature to such surroundings may seem distasteful in many sense of the word. I'm certain Mr. Whiskers was just acting on instinct, most Male cats act up when placed in situations where they feel powerless. Perhaps he simply cannot control his feline instincts?"

He chittered a bit at that before glancing back at the game for a moment before returning his attention to Tod "So, I take it you are the small one's caretaker? Forgive my eyesight but I am not spotting many Amoeba creatures wandering about."

 

[fuil]

"Ummm.....actually I have no idea." Tod looked at Anett and sighed. "She just showed up all alone and I decided to help her, so I guess you could call me that." He looked back to Knucks. "I hope that answered your question."
