Omega19x: *A nurse just finished having Ryou walk
down the hall, having gotten him out of bed, and moving
around*
ph33r my rod: *waiting in room?*
Omega19x: *door opens, and they come back in*
ph33r my rod: *looks up*
Omega19x: "You have improved quite a bit, sir, since
the last time we had you out of bed."
Omega19x: "... I... I want out of here..."
Omega19x: "I'll make a note of your improvement on
the chart, and talk to the doctor on call. We'll see what
we can do."
Omega19x: *smile*
ph33r my rod: *grin*
Omega19x: "But for now, you just rest up."
ph33r my rod: "...well, there's some good news, I guess."
Omega19x: *nods* "... I think so."
Omega19x: "I really do want out of here..."
Omega19x: *time passes and nurse comes back in*
Omega19x: "Allright, sir. Your release papers have been
signed. You're free to check out."
ph33r my rod: *perks up* "...excellent."
Omega19x: "But you should see your regular doctor
when you fly back to Japan, and get the ICD checked
every three months or so, to make sure it's still working
properly."
Omega19x: "of course... just like you all told me
earlier..."
Omega19x: "And still take it easy for the next few
weeks. No strenuous arm exercises or anything like that."
Omega19x: *nodnod*
Omega19x: *looks at Malik and smiles*
ph33r my rod: *big grin*
Omega19x: "How soon can I check out?"
Omega19x: "Any time."
Omega19x: "Thank you."
Omega19x: *nurse leaves*
ph33r my rod: "...about time, huh?"
Omega19x: "... very much so..."
ph33r my rod: "I don't think I even need to ask if you're ready or
not..."
Omega19x: "... well... I...I'd like to put on some
non-hospital gown-like clothes... if you don't mind..."
Omega19x: *blush*
ph33r my rod: "... Er. Yeah." *blush* "I'll uh... go wait in the hall."
*walks to door*
Omega19x: *change change*
ph33r my rod: *wait wait*
Omega19x: *comes out*
Omega19x: "... sorry that took so long... I... I had
trouble getting the shirt under the sling..."
ph33r my rod: *shrug* "I would've helped if you'd asked, but a little
late for that now." *smile* "...let's get going."
Omega19x: *smiles, and reaches for Malik's hand as
they walk down the hall*
ph33r my rod: *takes hand, walk walk walk*
Omega19x: *sign papers, etc*
ph33r my rod: *magical signlapse*
Omega19x: "Ah, Mr. Bakura, the travel agency has
already taken the liberty of booking a flight for you to
Japan."
Omega19x: "From Orlando. However, it was not
scheduled to be until tomorrow."
ph33r my rod: "..." *resists urge to facepalm*
Omega19x: "... oh... That's... okay, I suppose..."
Omega19x: *finish signing out, and walks outside*
ph33r my rod: *looks up at sky* "...man, it feels good to be out of
there."
Omega19x: "I know!"
Omega19x: *smiles at the fresh air*
Omega19x: "Well... I guess we have a day... to... to not
do anything... What... what should we do?"
Omega19x: *tries to think if he's ever heard of anything
around this Orlando place that the airport is in*
ph33r my rod: (( Dude, Universal Studios. XD ))
Omega19x: (I was thinking Disney World, but Universal
works!)
ph33r my rod: (( They should go to another show taping~ One
without faith healers this time. XD ))
Omega19x: (universal studios it is!)
Omega19x: "Isn't... there a big theme park there?"
Omega19x: "For a movie studio, or something?"
ph33r my rod: *headscratch* "Is there? I know next to nothing
about this place, so..."
Omega19x: "Universal Studios! That's it!"
ph33r my rod: *blinku* "... Interesting."
Omega19x: "I remember hearing about it when... when I
was in England... They have special ticket prices for UK
citizens."
Omega19x: (they really do!)
ph33r my rod: (( Ooh! 8D ))
Omega19x: "We have a day, we should go!"
ph33r my rod: *nods and grins* "Okay."
Omega19x: "It's... like Kaiba Land, I've heard... with
rides based on movies."
ph33r my rod: *eyebrow raise* "... Weird."
Omega19x: *long magical buslapse?*
ph33r my rod: *buslapse~*
Omega19x: *at the gates of the park*
ph33r my rod: *blinku*
Omega19x: (and on the website, you can ride some of
the rides online...)
ph33r my rod: (( ...dude. XD ))
Omega19x: (but I'm trying to find out which ones)
Omega19x: (start out on one of these pages, and click
on the rides, there's an option to ride it on the web)
Omega19x: (
http://themeparks.universalstudios.com/orlando/website/u
sf_attraction_terminator.html )
ph33r my rod: (( Sweeeeet. >D ))
Omega19x: *reading the list of attractions*
Omega19x: "Can we do Men in Black first?"
Omega19x: "... it... it was a good movie."
ph33r my rod: *nods* "Sure."
Omega19x: *strapped in, and given little guns to shoot
the aliens*
Omega19x: (you got it pulled up okay?)
ph33r my rod: (( Just a sec, it's taking a while to load for me. o_o;
))
ph33r my rod: (( Kay. ))
Omega19x: *ride starts*
ph33r my rod: *shoots stuff?*
Omega19x: *fires away*
Omega19x: *giggles* "This is fun!"
Omega19x: *spin around*
ph33r my rod: *meep* *shoots more stuff*
Omega19x: *aliens pop out* *booga booga!*
Omega19x: "... they're silly!"
ph33r my rod: "Huh, it's almost like Duel Monsters holograms."
Omega19x: "except uglier..."
Omega19x: "... no... I take that back, I've been through
my yami's deck..."
ph33r my rod: *snerk*
Omega19x: *smile, and shoot*
Omega19x: *ini a moment, the ride is over* "That was
too fast..."
ph33r my rod: *nod* "Was pretty fun, though."
Omega19x: "Is... there one you want to ride next?"
ph33r my rod: *thinks* "Is there one for that movie... The Mummy?
'Cause that was a pretty good one..."
Omega19x: (that's the one where you can't view it on
the web.)
ph33r my rod: (( ... And apparently the movie links for that don't
work. ))
Omega19x: (I tried that one first, myself)
Omega19x: (so we'll just have to pretend)
ph33r my rod: (( I guesso. XD ))
Omega19x: *looks up* "that one... seems right around
our alley."
Omega19x: "... or my yami's..."
Omega19x: *reads the sign outside the ride* "Warning,
death will come on swift wings to whomever violates this
tomb..."
ph33r my rod: *eyebrow raise*
Omega19x: "I wonder if they wrote that... on the
tombs.. my yami broke in to..."
ph33r my rod: "Maybe in heiroglyphs."
Omega19x: "I bet he ignored it, though..."
Omega19x: *looks around* "...this... looks scary..."
ph33r my rod: "...can't be much worse than anything we've been
through."
Omega19x: "... You'll... hold me close, right?"
ph33r my rod: *nods* "...of course."
Omega19x: *smile*
Omega19x: *sit down in coster seats, and get strapped
in*
Omega19x: *everything quickly goes dark*
Omega19x: "Apparently... the inscription said... we'd
only get free by going through the pharaoh's world..."
Omega19x: (cough - plot of next season...)
ph33r my rod: (( XD ))
Omega19x: "...AHHH!" *coaster takes off fast!*
ph33r my rod: *eep*
Omega19x: *scream*
ph33r my rod: *w00t*
Omega19x: *flashes of light - firrey mummies jumping
out of the walls, swords slashing at you as the coaster
zooms past. Skeletons leaping up from the ground
around you. *
Omega19x: "...EEEEEEE!!"
ph33r my rod: *eep!*
Omega19x: *the coaster is silent, the only sound you
hear are those of the dead, and of Ryou screaming.*
Omega19x: *and all of a sudden, it stops...*
Omega19x: *and goes... BACKWARDS!*
ph33r my rod: "WHOASHIT." *grabs on to Ryou's hand*
Omega19x: *eep!*
Omega19x: "... I wonder if... if... if yami had to do this!"
Omega19x: *more frightening mummies chase them on
their way out, retreating quickly backwards through the
tomb*
Omega19x: *finally the ride slows to a stop.*
ph33r my rod: *bliiiiiiink*
Omega19x: *trembles* "... that was scary..."
ph33r my rod: "...uh huh."
Omega19x: *taps his chest* "... I... I'm probably not...
supposed to ride things... like that..."
Omega19x: *shivers*
ph33r my rod: "...yeah, maybe we should take a break from this
stuff."
Omega19x: "... okay... What do you want to do?"
ph33r my rod: "...um. Maybe just walk around for a while, see if
anything... more tame jumps out at us?" *headscratch*
Omega19x: "There's... um... the ET ride?"
ph33r my rod: *blink, shrug* "If that's not quite as freaky, then let's
go for it, I guess."
Omega19x: "You never saw the movie, ET?"
ph33r my rod: *shakes head*
Omega19x: "it's about a cute little alien, who just wants
to go back home."
Omega19x: "How scary can the ride be?"
ph33r my rod: "Hm... doesn't sound too bad."
Omega19x: (Gah, I've been scowering the site, but I
don't think they do any tv shows here)
ph33r my rod: (( Animal Planet Live? :o ))
Omega19x: (that's about it, other than Barney.)
Omega19x: (wanna go see animals?)
ph33r my rod: (( That could be fun. :D ))
Omega19x: "Oh look! Animal Planet live!"
ph33r my rod: "Ooh."
Omega19x: "And thank you, all of you who are joining
us today! This big show is about birds!"
Omega19x: "You're going to get to see some exotic
birds, from all over the world! And some lucky
volunteers will get to help us with the show!"
Omega19x: "Who wants to volunteer?"
ph33r my rod: "...oooh." *looks at Ryou*
Omega19x: *the perky girl assistant looks out over the
audience, trying to select from the many people with their
hands up*
Omega19x: *raises hand*
ph33r my rod: *raises hand*
Omega19x: "Oh! How about that cute couple. You sir,
blonde hair in the purple shirt. And your girlfriend, white
hair, in the striped shirt."
ph33r my rod: (( XD Running gag! ))
Omega19x: "I'm... not his girlfriend..."
Omega19x: *looks down at them, and at their rings*
"Oh, my mistake! Fiance!"
ph33r my rod: *facepalm*
Omega19x: "I'm not a girl..."
Omega19x: *blush* "Oops... well... come up on stage
anyway, you two. And not a word of this to my boss."
ph33r my rod: *snerk* "...c'mon."
Omega19x: *get on stage*
Omega19x: *a man comes out, holding a green and
yellow parrot*
Omega19x: "And this, ladies and gentlemen, is a parrot
from the Amazon family. It's one of the largest families of
parrots, and most often selected as pets."
Omega19x: "They're great talkers, and have a clownlike
personality! Let's see if our two volunteers can get Terry
here to repeat anything!"
Omega19x: *passes Malik the microphone*
ph33r my rod: "...um." *blinks and thinks*
ph33r my rod: *tries to think of something... appropriate*
Omega19x: (lol)
Omega19x: "Malik, have it say something sweet..."
ph33r my rod: *teh think* "... Ryou has fluffy hair?"
Omega19x: *bird repeats* "fluffy hair! fluffy hair! Ryou
has fluffy hair! Braaach!"
Omega19x: *whistles, and bites at Ryou's fluffy hair*
ph33r my rod: "..." *gigglesnort*
Omega19x: "no... not for eating..."
Omega19x: "Fluffy hair! not for eating!"
Omega19x: *holds out his arm for the bird*
ph33r my rod: *blinku*
Omega19x: "Don't want Terry getting too frisky"
Omega19x: *the man takes the parrot back, and brings
out a conure*
ph33r my rod: (( A what? ))
Omega19x: *an orange bird with a long slender shape,
generally found near Mexico and Argentina*
ph33r my rod: *ooh*
Omega19x: *and a big white cockatoo!*
Omega19x: "Now, I like to bring people up with white
hair. Talkatoo Cockatoo loves to sit on people's heads,
especially if they have white hair!"
ph33r my rod: *looks at Ryou... white hair*
Omega19x: "Like most parrots, he's quite the clown!"
Omega19x: *the next thing he knows, there's a bird
sitting on his head*
ph33r my rod: (( Art bunny! ))
Omega19x: (ART BUNNY!)
Omega19x: "Cockattos make great pets too, and the
relish the attention of admiring humans!"
Omega19x: "And I think he likes you!"
ph33r my rod: *smirk*
Omega19x: *the bird is small. It's a young one. fully
grown cocaktoos can be over two feet in length*
Omega19x: "You okay there, hon? Is Talkatoo allright
to stay there for a minute?"
Omega19x: "... oh... sure... why not?"
ph33r my rod: *amused*
Omega19x: *the bird picks at his hair, making one side
point up like his yami's!*
ph33r my rod: *laughs a little*
Omega19x: *brings out a green bird for Malik to hold
on his arm*
ph33r my rod: *holds out arm*
Omega19x: "And here we have a macaw!"
Omega19x: "There are over thirty species of macaws in
the wild, mostly in South America. They are some of the
largest members of the parrot family. But they're quite
friendly."
ph33r my rod: *holds bird on arm*
Omega19x: *bird pecks at your gold arm bnd*
ph33r my rod: *is glad he's wearing armbands*
Omega19x: "And while these little guys are cute, I know
this isn't what you came to see, am I right?"
Omega19x: *assistant takes both of the birds back*
ph33r my rod: "...uh?"
Omega19x: *the crowd cheers*
Omega19x: "No, You came to see our famous Henry
Hawk, our most famous bird of prey!"
Omega19x: "Don't worry you two volunteers. You're
not prey. Hawks prefer small animals and reptiles, but
will sometimes eat small birds and insects."
Omega19x: *phew*
ph33r my rod: "...that's good."
Omega19x: *the assistant walks out with a hawk on his
leather glove*
Omega19x: "oh look..."
Omega19x: "This type of Hawk is from North Dakota,
in mature deciduous forests where he can easily find
food."
Omega19x: "But we brought him down here to show
you how truly awesome he is."
ph33r my rod: "...coooool."
Omega19x: "Now, we only need one of you for this little
stunt. Who wants to wear my leather glove, and have
Henry land on their hand?"
Omega19x: "My assistant will let him go, and he will fly
above the crowd a few times before coming back down
to the stage."
ph33r my rod: *looks at Ryou* "You wanna? Or me?"
Omega19x: "... you can do it."
ph33r my rod: *nods and smiles* "...okay."
Omega19x: *smiles back*
Omega19x: "So who will it be?"
ph33r my rod: "Me."
Omega19x: "Okay!" *puts the glove on him. It covers
up to his elbow almost* "Release Henry!"
Omega19x: *the bird zooms around*
Omega19x: "Note his small size, and the broad black
and white bands around the bottom of his tail. That's a
good way to identify his species."
ph33r my rod: *watches it fly around*
Omega19x: *and less than a minute later, comes
zooming back down*
Omega19x: "Hold out your arm!"
ph33r my rod: *hold out arm*
Omega19x: *and it lands quickly, clutching onto the
glove. The talons, of course, cannot poke through the
hard leather, so Malik feels no pain*
ph33r my rod: *meep*
Omega19x: *the bird squaks at Malik*
Omega19x: *backs up slightly*
Omega19x: "... he... he doesn't look that tiny to me..."
ph33r my rod: *blink blink*
Omega19x: "Wasn't that amazing, folks?"
Omega19x: *the assistant walks back over, and takes
the hawk from Malik*
Omega19x: "... wow... You look stunned." *smiles*
ph33r my rod: *blinku blinku* "...that was cool." *grin*
Omega19x: "That's all the time we have for this live
show, but thank you for joining us!"
Omega19x: "And thanks to my special volunteers who
came on stage today to help me! If you stick around after
the show, I'll give you both free Animal Planet Live
T-shirts!:
ph33r my rod: "Hey, free stuff."
Omega19x: "ooh, t-shirts!"
Omega19x: *the crowd starts to clear out a bit, and
they are handed their free t-shirts.*
Omega19x: "This... this was a fun idea! I'm glad you
thought of coming to see this show, Malik."
Omega19x: *smile*
ph33r my rod: *looks at shirt* "Yeah, it was pretty cool."
ph33r my rod: "And we got free stuff out of it... nice souvenir."
Omega19x: *nods*
