Last Poster Wins

[Gypsywoman]

*Peeks in to steal the win after long absence. A smile sweeps across my face. Thinking that Song bird couldn't be more right. Then steals the win while no one is looking*

[Boatman]

Except, that Boat was looking, from behind the cover of his patched cloak of invisibility.
An arm sweeps the Win from Gypsy's grasp and the smile from her pleasant visog.
He would show off his prize at the Ferryman's Ball...

[Songbird]

The Ferryman's Ball was delightful, and much frolic and naughtiness was enjoyed. Boatman was looking remarkably handsome, and remarkably smug as he showed off his prize. Fortunately, the rooms were lit by candlelight, and Birdy, looking particularly delicious in red silk, was able to exchange the Win for a Magic 8 Ball, carrying the former home with her in her purse. ;)

[Boatman]

The problem with ferrymen is their penchant for picking up a thing or two left behind by their passengers.
So much so that attendees arriving at and departing from the Ferryman's ball are monitored.
And thus, it came to pass that Boat recovered the win and retired to the country a happy man whilst Birdy ended up in a gilded cage.

[Songbird]

Trapped within her gilded cage, Birdy sang to relieve the anguish in her heart, the beautiful yet sad aria weaving through the air like a ribbon of shining gold. All who heard her sing were overwhelmed with compassion for her plight, until at last they stormed Boatman's ferry and retrieved the Win, giving it to the delighted Songbird. Unfortunately, she still could not leave her cage, but so long as she possessed the Win, her songs would be filled with joy.

[Gypsywoman]

Gypsy decided to take pity on the pretty Songbird and set her free. For small fee .Which was the win of course. With win hand Gypsy disappears into thin air.

[Songbird]

Feeling a little sad to leave her cage, Birdy goes out into the wide world, singing her song and serving hot beverages. Fortunately, one of her grateful patrons rewards her excellent service with... a potato, which she later traded for the Win. :-)

[Boatman]

Boat, laughs. 'Oh, that old Win! It has been doing the rounds for some time. I have found it best not to trust hungry potato traders.
Now, as for the win I have here...'
Boat checks the date, then sighs.
'Onion traders too it seems.'

[Songbird]

That's odd. An onion trader just passed by and handed me this! :o

Holds the Win aloft for all to see.

[Kurogane]

Tweaks one of her nipples to distract her; then swipes the win from her!

[Boatman]

Noting the enormous size of Kuro's sword, Boat thinks better of challenging him with his own puny weapon. Instead, he activatesa the suspended electromagnet which soon has the brave knight all a dangle.
Boat catches the dropped win and makes off into the sunset.

[Songbird]

Birdy rides past on her pink motorcycle and plucks the Win from Boatman's grasp, waving as she passes.

Thanks, Boatman! ;D

[WordSmith]

Wow, it's still going on even after I won so long ago.

[Songbird]

I think you mean I won! 8-)

[WordSmith]

Pretty sure 'I' means WordSmith

[SecretCharm]

While they both argue, Secret sneaks in and steals the win. ;)

[Songbird]

It takes Birdy a moment to realize that the Win has been taken. Once she does however, she runs after Secret, spins her around like a top, and catches the Win as it flies out of the blur.

Got it! :D

[ChicagoOkie]

Sneaks up behind the birdy. Steals her and the win.

[Songbird]

Coyly protests as she is stolen, keeping hold of the Win.

Oh, no! Unhand me, you brute! :-*

[ChicagoOkie]

Refuses to unhand her. Heaving her over his shoulder he hides in a cave.

[Songbird]

Is held captive in the cave, bound and laid upon soft furs...

Too bad this is the PG-13 version! ;D

[ChicagoOkie]

Yep, too bad.

Leaves Birdy bound on the furs and steals the win.

[Songbird]

Hey! Get back here! >:(

Hops after him in an admittedly comical fashion, hopping and hopping, chasing him relentlessly until he collapses from exhaustion. Puffing out her chest, bursting the ropes that bound her, Birdy reclaims the Win AND steals his kilt. ;D

[GabeTheKid]

*wins for a while out of purely selfish reasons*

[Songbird]

Reclaims the Win, also for selfish reasons. It's just so pretty... :D
