Trial outcomes and French Frogs

Lola and a few others are outside the Cricket talking - Lola is talking to a new married woman in town, Molleh Moleno.  (See the whole post of that fun role play, posted by Molleh on the Deadwood forum!)

[2010/08/09 19:07]  Lolaraine McGinnis: That there is Daisy, we work here
[2010/08/09 19:07]  Molleh Moleno: at the saloon?
[2010/08/09 19:07]  JF Kanto grins....Yep, they do. Daisy was workin real hard just a few minutes ago too.
[2010/08/09 19:07]  Lolaraine McGinnis nods looking up at the sign
[2010/08/09 19:08]  Lolaraine McGinnis scowls at JF
[2010/08/09 19:08]  Molleh Moleno wonders what a woman can be doing at man's establishment
[2010/08/09 19:08]  JF Kanto grin just gets bigger at Lolas scowl.
[2010/08/09 19:08]  Lolaraine McGinnis pulls her blouse up a little
[2010/08/09 19:09]  JF Kanto takes his hat off and wipes his brow...Yes sir, that Daisy is one hard worker.
[2010/08/09 19:09]  Lolaraine McGinnis bites her lips, chewing on them hard
[2010/08/09 19:09]  Molleh Moleno thinks she should go back to her room right away and pray for her husband's return but is too curious to hear more..
[2010/08/09 19:10]  JF Kanto: Hey Red, wheres that ugly mick that has been sniffing around you?
[2010/08/09 19:10]  Molleh Moleno: yes I'm sure you all work very hard here and i'm taking your time...I thank you for answering my question...
[2010/08/09 19:10]  Lolaraine McGinnis glances sideways at JF, her face turning a few shades of pink
[2010/08/09 19:11]  Molleh Moleno: I"m going to my room and pray for my husband's safe return...
[2010/08/09 19:11]  Lolaraine McGinnis: Ain't no ugly micks round here that I seen
[2010/08/09 19:11]  Lolaraine McGinnis: You do that hon
[2010/08/09 19:11]  JF Kanto grins at Molleh....anytime Ma'am.
[2010/08/09 19:11]  Molleh Moleno has a hard time with the new expressions but thinks it's not something she should understand anyhow
[2010/08/09 19:11]  JF Kanto: Oh sure there is Red. You know the fella, the one I put bullet into.
[2010/08/09 19:12]  Molleh Moleno: i bid you all a good evening ladies and gent
[2010/08/09 19:12]  JF Kanto: Night Ma'am
[2010/08/09 19:12]  Lolaraine McGinnis glares at JF and sticks her chin out: Don't know who ya mean
[2010/08/09 19:12]  Molleh Moleno wants to run but her high heels are stuck in the mud
[2010/08/09 19:12]  Lolaraine McGinnis smiles at Rog: hey hon
[2010/08/09 19:12]  Molleh Moleno: mr. Rog!!!
[2010/08/09 19:12]  Rog Brinner: Evening, Ladies
[2010/08/09 19:12]  Molleh Moleno: so good to see you here again!
[2010/08/09 19:12]  JF Kanto laughs....Sure, sure. Just tell that son of a bitch I want to talk to him.

[2010/08/09 19:13]  Molleh Moleno: I am on my way to my room Rog
[2010/08/09 19:13]  Rog Brinner: bye
[2010/08/09 19:13]  JF Kanto: That ugly mick, Donny, Donald or something like that.
[2010/08/09 19:13]  Rog Brinner: So, what happened to that other guy you shot, McCabe?
[2010/08/09 19:13]  Molleh Moleno whispers to Rog...I shouldn't have asked these people for help...i'm so flustered now...
[2010/08/09 19:13]  Lolaraine McGinnis bites her lip some more
[2010/08/09 19:14]  Rog Brinner: 'scuse me
[2010/08/09 19:14]  JF Kanto nods to Rog....you mean that Jack McCall fella?
[2010/08/09 19:14]  Lolaraine McGinnis looks at Rog: What for?
[2010/08/09 19:14]  Lolaraine McGinnis: Oh. you missed the trial
[2010/08/09 19:14]  Rog Brinner: Oh yeah, McCall
[2010/08/09 19:14]  JF Kanto: You mean they done hung the bastard?
[2010/08/09 19:14]  Lolaraine McGinnis: They let him off
[2010/08/09 19:15]  Rog Brinner: LET HIM OFF???
[2010/08/09 19:15]  Lolaraine McGinnis: Not guilty, that's what them jurors said..
[2010/08/09 19:15]  JF Kanto jaw drops, then he snaps it shut...
[2010/08/09 19:15]  Rog Brinner: What jurors?
[2010/08/09 19:15]  Lolaraine McGinnis: that lady there, she were one of the jurors come ta think of it

[2010/08/09 19:40]  Boggy Darkmatter: I think there is more chicken than frogs in these parts miss Lola
[2010/08/09 19:41]  Lolaraine McGinnis shakes her head dry heaving a little: I seen frogs in the river

[2010/08/09 19:41]  Lolaraine McGinnis covers her mouth and runs to the outhouse
[2010/08/09 19:41]  Daisy Stratten looks at Lola a moment, "Oh no reaso, hon."
