Gambit Line-By-Line

[Athena28]

Hello, Welcome!

We recently completed E2 thread in the ENT forum!

For any unfamiliar with our "game," you are asked to post only a single line (defined as one character speaking without interruption by another character) per message. You can post as often as you like, but someone else must post a line in between your posts.

Our "rule" is that if the episode has a "To Be Continued..." on the end, it is done in a single thread, but if it's just an arc of related episodes (like the Dominion Occupation Arc on DS9 or the Xindi Arc on ENT), each episode is a separate thread.

Get ready for a story, here we go!

[Cantina]

BARTENDER: So tell me, why is it so important that you find this man?

 

[Kertrats47]

TROI: We had business dealings. He owes me money.

 

[sekundant]

BARTENDER: If we had business dealings, I can tell you that I wouldn't disappear.

[for the script:

[Kertrats47]

TROI: Maybe we can discuss that possibility. But first, I have to find him, collect the money I'm owed.

 

[Orac]

Bartender: I'll be closing in a few hours. Perhaps we can discuss this more privately.

 

[May 20]

TROI: If I don't find him, I'm going to have to move on. Are you sure you haven't seen him?

 

[Hopeful Romantic]

BARTENDER: Human, about two metres tall, smooth-headed. No. I don't remember anyone like that.

[Good to be back with y'all! ]

 

[May 20]

TROI: You're lying.

 

[Athena28]

BARTENDER: And you're a Betazoid. I thought so. Listen, people who come in here, they count on a certain amount of anonymity. And if I were to start answering questions about them, even to a very beautiful woman, well, I wouldn't be in business very long. And being a businesswoman, I'm sure you understand.

(and he goes off to serve another customer while at the other end of the bar)

RIKER: Great story. I'll remember it next time I'm in a knife fight.

(walks over to Worf)

RIKER: Any luck?

 

[Kertrats47]

WORF: I think the one over there knows something.

 

[May 20]

WORF: He would not admit to having seen the Captain, but he said that anyone who visited the ruins of Nafir would probably come here eventually. I suspect he knows more.

 

[Kertrats47]

RIKER: Let's go.

 

[mattman8907]

WORF: Commander, I told...

 

[Orac]

Number 1: My friend tells me you know about the man we're looking for.

 

[mattman8907]

YRANAC: The only reason I'm talking to you is that I have a sister, too.

 

[Orac]

Wharf: I explained to him that we are looking for a man who impregnated your sister.

 

[May 20]

RIKER: So you can imagine how much this means to me.

 

[Hopeful Romantic]

YRANAC: Family honour is important. If someone had defiled my sister I would do anything, pay anything, to find the one responsible.
