[open] They didn't have taro ice cream bars and I'm still vaguely butthurt.

Who: Gaius (convictionary) and various and sundry other people, yes, it's ice cream time.
When: Post-Lasker intro log
Where: Lasker, starting off in an ice cream parlor because I can.
What: Investigating Lasker stuff while eating ice cream.
Rating: Probably some innuendo and mild cursing because it's me, and I might use a vulgar metaphor and/or analogy at some point.

[So, as Gaius stared at the ice cream bar shaped vaguely like Kaito's head (chocolate flavored) he couldn't help but say.]

That ain't right.

[They could get to Double Duo and doing other things in a second. Right now he's distracted by ice cream bars shaped like people he knew.]

Don't get me wrong. If it was just me, sure, I'd take a crack at it. And if it was just a few of us against this world you'd bet I'd be straining my brain over what they mean. But, as is...I figure I got better things to worry about and our bosses got better people for the job. You know. Local people. Smart people. People who know the area and what's going on, things only folk who're born here can pick up on.

And just between you and me [And maybe a couple of other people he'll later mention this to, but it's a small crowd.] I don't blame those of us who take a crack at it. But, personally speaking? I kind of want to see what our bosses come up with before swooping in and trying to help them out with yet another thing. Would be real telling if they needed us to bail them out on this one.

[Any dramatics involved in this statement was ruined by the fact he was eating ice cream the entire time and was occasionally punctuating his sentences by taking bites here and there.]
