Flower Shopping

Here's a little scene I cooked up for a laugh. Remember when Beau and Frances bought Tank a certain special flower to spruce up his home? Well, this shows them on their flower shopping trip.








"We have a wide selection of roses," Ripp enthused to one of his customers. "Would you like me to show you some examples?"

"You know, I hear he'll make out with anything," Beau said. "Even robots."

"Yeah, I heard that." Frances played along, emboldened by Beau's pressence. As Beau had said before, it served Ripp right to have the shoe placed on the other foot. He'd done it to him, hadn't he?

"Hey, Ripp! Can I have a kiss? You've kissed everyone else." Beau teased. He continued to make kissing sounds. "Hey, I'm looking for a kiss over here. Kissy kissy kissy..."




"I can't believe we've been waiting here for so long," Beau said, much too loudly. "I was told this salesman was EASY to get service from..."

"Can you excuse me for one moment?" Ripp asked the woman.




"Oh, hey, Ripp! How nice of you to finally come help us. I was just wondering if —"










"So, yeah... is there anything else I can help you with?"

There was only stunned silence for a moment.




"Well, we were interested in a plant," Frances finally said.

"Umm, yeah..." Beau added, "how much is that dick plant back there?"

LOL!

May my love for Ripp never end.

I've missed Frances and Beau; it was great seeing them here :)

Question is it the uniform or has Ripp put on some weight? I had thought that Ripp was super hetero, so how do you shoot these scenes? That shocked look on Frances face, which then seems to turn sad.

So, is this also part of that "going too far?" But I suppose Ripp found a way to shut Beau up for a bit, but for how long?

Boy, Ripp certainly supplies plenty of comic relief. You've gone and endeared him to me. I'm sorry I wasn't willing to let him evolve pre-crash, instead I tried to reform him. Perhaps, when I eventually re-start a new game?

*cackles* And this is why Ripp is awesome.

I knew he'd do that. That's so Ripp. Always seems to need to be in control and have the upper hand, especially in low-risk situations like this. (That sounds totally contradictory but it's one of the most interesting things about him, to me, that when it comes to more serious stuff he tends to want to get some distance between him and it and let the 'professionals' take over.)

Anyway, yes. That was awesome and brightened my day.

LOL!

I was expecting Ripp to punch Beau's lights out, not that!

(Then again, it'd be out of character for Ripp to be that violent, but that kind of teasing could make anyone insane!)

And I was reminded of the dick plant LOL! Every time I see it in my game catalog, I'm reminded of those two :).

Ahh I love it. Ripp FTW

Yep, Ripp is still awesome <3 :D

Lol at 'dick plant,' and other Beau antics. It's so fun to see Beau in such a different character- especially since I've always seen him as the serious type.

Who is the pretty lady he's helping? She looks awfully familiar.

Ripp is, as always, awesome and amusing.

Oh God, I laughed so much. I've calmed down now but I'm still smirking. My sister's in the room with me right now and I'm pretty sure she thinks I'm insane.

LOL! That boy has balls of steel. :D

Mwa Ha Ha!

I love how Ripp wipes it off at the end.

I choose to interpret Frances's reaction as such: O_O...o_o...*files image away for future use*

:P

I don't think I need to say it, but I love how Beau is just so...Beau, and how he hasn't turned Frances into a little dick so much as brought that already existing bit of him out, for better of for worse.

That is an appropriate reaction to heckling, Ripp, I approve.

Super cute!

Love it, especially Frances' reaction :D

That was fuckawesome! It's sooo Ripp! I just wish more guys had more balls like Ripp does :) GO RIPP!

I seriously LOL'd. So loud in fact, that I had to explain myself to my roommate.

Ripp gets on my tits something fierce sometimes, but moments like this (and the flashback with Stella) are why I could never hate him.

So funny!! Oh my!! I almost spit out my tea!

I haven't been here yet but Carla made mention of it at N99, and I'm definitely enjoying it thus far! Have lots to catch up on! :D

*CACKLE* Ripp, you won! You won bigtime! XD
