Bordertown, Saturday
Mar. 19th, 2011 10:10 amThere were many ways to get to Bordertown, but the easiest was the Bordertown Express. Steam engines seemed to work just fine this close to the border, so the old timey locomotive was a comfortable, reliable transport to the city of runaways.
Once one was in Bordertown there was no shortage of things to do and people to see. Up on Dragon's Tooth Hill there were upscale Elven shops. On the side of the city closest to the World side they'd re-opened the Wallmart. Though now it was merely a rather nice flea market where folks sold hand made wares, or things imported from the Human world.
But the best places by far were those in Soho. Like Elsewhere books, where Leda had lived for a time as a child, and even worked for a short while as a young teen. Or Magic Freddy's for the finest in Occult Goods.
Not feeling well? Madam Wu's Apothecary, located just next door to Elsewhere might be your best bet. You can also get good chinese take-out there. Or perhaps you need something more. For that there's Always Milo Chevrolet. This week he's not feeling so sentimental that he'll refuse to sell any of the beautiful vintage and antique cars in his lot.
Places to eat? There's almost too many to choose from! But Taco Hell and Godmom's Pizza are two of the best.
Looking to party? Then Danceland is the place. Or you could check out the Endless Rave.
Lost something? Need something fixed? Both? No problem! For a modest fee (we've primarily a barter system here in B-Town) Orient and Tick Tick will be happy to locate and/or fix it.
And that's only a smattering of what Bordertown has to offer! There's Dragontown, The Dancing Ferret coffee house, and more! Be sure to ask your guide (Leda) for any other suggestions. She's sure to think of more stuff on the fly.
[Come one come all! Just be aware that magic and high tech have mixed badly here so they are unpredictable. And you might wanna stay out of gang territory. The True Bloods don't like Humans, the Pack don't like Elves, and the Wharf Rats wanna share the glories of the Mad River. IE, get you hopelessly addicted to it's intoxicating waters.]
