Boatman

Boat untangles Syk from the black back cloth onto which the sunset was being projected and dusts her down, carefully swapping her worn hat for the stunt hat.

Boat sniggers as he boards a time machine with the Win and switches on the CGI.

Dys Astyr

Watches as the time machine rattles apart and collapses

Were you going somewhere?
Alive! Trying to catch up but there is a lot, please be patient! Thank you. <3

Boatman

Hmm... Is this the past?

Dys Astyr

It's the past where you don't have the Win.  ;) But I'll buy you a drink to make up for it.

Boatman

So this Win I have here is the future Win. Hmm... does that mean there is a past Boat roaming around somewhere and a past Win?

Boat thinks he might need that drink and accepts.

wander

So we have a Win in the past and you have the future Win here?

*shoots the future Win and takes the current one, thus changing time that I have the Win and Boatman was never able to be back in time with it, putting the timeline back to normal*... and a deep breath out :)

So yeah, I have the Win ;)

Boatman

"No, no," Boat says with concern in his eyes. "You have put the Win into a time loop we may have to go round forever.
Thee is only one way out. We'll have to go back further and re-route avoiding this ending.

Where's that drink?"

Dys Astyr

Pushes a whisky into Boat's hand

No time loops in my town, and no one winning but me.

Flashes roguish smile and tucks the Win safely away

Boatman

Boat downs the whisky.
Shudders
.
That's good!
Tucks Syk safely away on the boat.
Thinks - just a matter of staying awake and snaffling Win.

Dys Astyr

Blinks and ponders the sudden change from old west to boat, pats pocket to make sure the Win is still safely in her possession.

Are spurs still appropriate?

Boatman

The boat is on a trailer. Waiting for tide to come in.
Spurs...? You got boots too?
History, where creative writing was born.

Dys Astyr

Naturally, have you ever tried to wear spurs barefoot? Doesn't work very well. :P They're even cowboy boots, as appropriate to the rest of the evil sheriff get up.  ;D The ching-ching noise is most amusing though, especially as it aggravates a lot of people.

Boatman

I thought they put the ching ching on afterwards in the movies. Where the goody had the nicest ching.

Dys Astyr

 ;D They very well may have.

Different spurs make different sounds though. Normal spurs with a small star make a light, high toned ching-ching, bull spurs have a lower chang-ting sound, and there are other kinds that I have never worn so I couldn't even say.

Heh... Why am I talking about spurs like a weirdo...

Boatman

I am sure there is some evil master plan.
I am still in Roman times where they didn't even have stirrups.

Dys Astyr

Roman times? Don't tell me that time machine was your ride home...  :P

Wine, olive oil, lounging around waiting for a good gladiator event.
No computers though... Just fancy water clocks.

Apparently someone they nicknamed the Spaniard.
Made some fancy speech standing on a block of wood to make him look taller.

River

Afraid not my dear, being I believe all sexes and genders are equal I cannot do the gentlemanly thing and lose for you...

So this here Win is staying with me, sorry :)

Boatman

Well, the stay is over.
Had a nice holiday Win dear?

Good, then let's be off home to the boat.

Did you just talk to the Win?

Does it talk back?

You know how you can hear the sea when listening to a shell? (not artillery)
It's like that.
