The Misadventures of YRPBGN

DAY II: "Argent Games Anonymous"

Gippal groaned. Here of all places. The Calm Lands. He hated how it was so green. Everything was green, and he hated the color green. However, it was Baralai's day off, and since Baralai had to have his oh-so-wonderful day off, he had dragged Gippal to go wander around Spira randomly with him. But, he had to drag him to the Calm Lands.

"Wow! Look at all these happy people, and it's so green and beautiful! Don't you just love it here?" Baralai said licking an ice cream cone.

"No. I hate green," Gippal whined. He hoped it would give the silver haired guy a message.

"That's ok. We can go to Luca. The color there is mainly blue."

"Whatever, fine by me, and where the hell did you get that from? Did you pick that ice cream up off from the ground that the kid from earlier dropped?" Gippal asked. Baralai looked at it, and squinted.

"It only had one blade of grass on it...Hey, what's the green snake up in the sky?" he said, and took another lick.

"Fuck that, let's go to Luca."

"Ooh! What are those? Are those games? Let's go play!" Baralai said as he ran off towards the two people staring each other down in an attempt to make each one's attractions look better to the customer.

The one person greeted Baralai. "Welcome to Argent Inc. Whatcha buying, stranger?" The other one greeted him, too.

"Welcome to Open Air. Whatcha selling, stranger?"

"I want to play your games! I have lots of money. Could I buy your company?" Baralai asked. Gippal walked up behind him.

"Dude, these guys are rips. They'll rob you like walking on a street corner holding out the bling bling with the winning lotto ticket. F-O-R-G-E-T I-T."

"Did you say something?" Baralai asked Gippal.

8 hours later...

"These games are so fun! How much money do I have left to get credits?" Baralai asked watching his bet on Reptile Run.

Gippal was laying down. "You mean 'how much do I have left?' Nothing. You just took me broke."

"Hey! I got an idea!" Baralai said. "Let's call Nooj and see if he has any money. I'm all out of money, you don't have anything, and New Yevon's account was forced to close due to bankrupcy."

"Do what you want, man..." Gippal said as he drifted off to sleep. He prayed Paine wouldn't call him the next day asking for her money that he borrowed 5 days ago...
