AA: [g∞d evening.]=[um, i wanted to apologize for our previous conversation.]
AA: [i suppose i got a little carried away, talking about all of those silly things.]=[i hope i did not make you uncomfortable.]
AA: [i will try to refrain from talking to you in such a manner from now on.]=[it was wrong of me.]
PP: <<< you didn't... sssorry... it'sss hard to explain why I left ssso sssuddenly... >>>
PP: <<< but it won't happen again... >>>
AA: [oh, no, it is alright.]=[i understand that there are a lot more important things to do than listen to me complain!]
AA: [do not feel at fault.]=[you do not have to explain.]
AA: [i do hope that you are alright, though.]=[i will admit to being a little worried.]
PP: <<< oh... I'm perfectly fine... I assssssure you... but, okay... >>>
PP: <<< honessstly, it'sss looking like I'll have more free time than I calculated... >>>
AA: [that is g∞d to hear.]=[i really did not mean to say all of that to you...]=[things are so stressful right now.]=[i can't imagine that it is easy for you either, though, and you are handling it so well.]
AA: [really?]=[maybe you can take a moment to relax.]=[i would like to do that.]
AA: [have you been busy with your quest?]=[that would make the most sense.]
PP: <<< actually I have been relaxing more than even I'd normally like to... i'm taking a break from my quessst sssince my effortsss have been pretty fruitlessssss... >>>
PP: <<< if everyone elssse could ssshare sssuch a relaxingly boring quessst I'd gladly welcome it... >>>
AA: [well, that is a g∞d thing!]=[it makes me happy to hear that.]=[i have not been able to relax for a while now.]=[but then, i never was very g∞d at relaxing.]
AA: [oh, my.]=[care to elaborate?]=[i still have not found the goal that i need to accomplish in my land.]=[but i have not really been l∞king that hard.]
AA: [the quests interest me.]=[some of them seem so hard.]
AA: [it takes a lot off my mind to know that you are doing alright with yours, at least.]=[i hope it will stay that way!]
PP: <<< hm... I'm glad you ssseem a bit more upbeat than usssual... if not jussst becaussse I'm doing fine... I mean, if it relievesss you I'll try to keep in good ssshape... >>>
[09:17] PP: <<< the goalsss we all need to reach are puzzlingly complex, tho, I'll have to sssay... >>>
PP: <<< i really have run out of ideasss on mine... and I'd like to not think about it too much right now... >>>
AA: [oh!]=[well, yes.]=[i mean, there is so many stressful things happening right now.]=[it is really a relief just to talk to you!]=[the others drive me crazy sometimes.]
AA: [yes, the final outcome of our efforts seems unclear.]=[this is quite an intriguing game.]
AA: [i understand that much.]=[we could talk about something else, if it would ease your mind.]
PP: <<< we could... I sssuppossse... >>>
PP: <<< outssside of memosss I haven't talked with any of our teammatesss in a while... >>>
PP: <<< all thossse early formality conversssationsss i've gotten out of the way though... ssso that'sss expected... >>>
PP: <<< ah... forget what I sssaid, then... >>>
PP: <<< tell me... isss there anything you'd like to talk about???... >>>
AA: [yes, i have noticed!]=[they really are not that bad.]=[some of them want to get to know you more than they do now, i am sure.]
AA: [i cannot blame you for avoiding conversation, though.]=[sometimes i wish i talked to them a little less!]=[i just feel obligated to know them.]=[we are the last of our kind, after all.]
AA: [oh, i am happy with anything.]=[if you have anything on your mind, i do hope you know that i will gladly listen to it.]
AA: [although i have been wondering a little, about trivial little things.]=[i realized that i do not know much about your life.]=[what did you do, before this game happened?]=[i mean, what did you enjoy?]
PP: <<< fair point... you ssseem to be having trouble with sssome of the othersss from what I can tell, I think???... >>>
PP: <<< what we did before the game isssn't very important, but if you'd like to know... I sssuppossse I did a lot of waiting... >>>
PP: <<< um... nothing outssstanding comesss to mind, sssorry... >>>
AA: [oh, yes.]=[i suppose.]=[but you do not have to worry about that.]=[it is ultimately just my fault, i think.]=[for being so...]=[...inept when it comes to that kind of thing.]
AA: [waiting?]=[is that because of your jadebl∞d duties?]=[that sounds distressful.]
AA: [oh, no, it is alright.]=[i was just wondering.]=[about the kind of things that make you happy!]
AA: [there has to be something.]=[i cannot imagine a life that only involves waiting.]
PP: <<< it wasss... not that I minded... >>>
PP: <<< hm... grubball wasss one of my hobbiesss... I alwaysss figured it didn't matter much, but sssince the world around usss basssically ended my dutiesss have... ended... >>>
PP: <<< we're both pretty bad with chatting, though, huh... but are you sssure that it'sss your fault???... I'd offer advice, but, um... >>>
AA: [it sounds like this turn of events is better than what your life would have potentially been.]=[it still worries me to think about what would have happened...]
AA: [grubball?]=[really?]=[i would not have guessed that!]
AA: [oh, i am not sure about anything anymore.]=[but if i did not do anything wrong, i am sure this would have turned out more favorably.]
AA: [that is nice of you to say.]=[ha ha, i know that you do not have any advice to give.]=[but the thought that you would give it is enough for me!]
AA: [truthfully, it is nice to have someone who doesn't have advice, for a change.]=[it is comforting to know i am not the only one who has trouble with this.]
PP: <<< oh... >>>
PP: <<< that'sss interesssting... mossstly everyone ssseemsss to like having feelingsss dissscussssssed... >>>
PP: <<< not that I mind... not doing that... >>>
AA: [i think everyone just has a lot of things to say about feelings, right now.]=[unfortunately, i am not an exception...]=[but it really isn't that i like talking about it.]=[it just kind of needs to be said, i suppose.]
AA: [i do not really know how else to handle it.]=[are you not confused about this kind of thing as well?]
PP: <<< I am... but I try to bottle thossse kindsss of feelingsss... >>>
PP: <<< no need to worry yourssself pointlessssssly over ssstressssssful topicsss... >>>
AA: [that is not g∞d!]=[it will cause you more trouble later on if you try to ignore it.]=[i understand this firsthand.]
PP: <<< really???... >>>
AA: [yes.]=[it is an unfortunate fact, but a fact nonetheless.]=[and, i do not want you to feel like you have nobody to go to.]=[i mean, i know it is very difficult to discuss with ease, but...]=[well, um, i will not think badly of you if you talk to me about it.]
PP: <<< I don't have any issssssuesss right now... thank you... for your concern, tho... >>>
AA: [oh.]=[i thought you said you were also confused about it.]=[i am sorry.]
AA: [but if you really are alright at the moment, i am happy for you.]=[you are welcome, of course.]
AA: [i hope i am not overstepping my boundaries...]=[...or anything.]=[i seem to be saying a lot of the wrong things, lately.]
PP: <<< it'sss fine... I'll keep thisss in mind... >>>
PP: <<< there'sss nothing wrong about what you sssaid... don't beat yourssself up over it, ananta... >>>
AA: [thank you.]=[i really do not want to make you think any less of me...]=[or anything like that.]
PP: <<< I'm not going to think lessssss of you until you put a knife through me... >>>
AA: [ha ha, that is not going to happen.]=[i do not even own any knives!]
AA: [that is a very nice thing to say, though.]=[thank you.]=[i think you are a very g∞d friend, ketsal.]
PP: <<< ah... >>>
PP: <<< of courssse... >>>
PP: <<< thank you, too... >>>
AA: [you are welcome.]=[i am curious, though.]=[what have you been doing all this time?]=[it seems like you have hardly spoken with any of us.]
PP: <<< oh... my land'sss quessst... not that i've been asss actively trying to figure it out ssso much anymore... >>>
PP: <<< it getsss to you even if you don't want it to... >>>
PP: <<< which I don't... >>>
AA: [is it giving you that much trouble?]=[really?]
AA: [i mean, even though it is "boring", as you say.]=[and it is g∞d that you are focusing on your quest.]
AA: [is your land pleasant?]=[mine is very pretty.]
PP: <<< I'd sssay it isss... to me, at leassst... assside from itsss ssside effectsss... >>>
PP: <<< a pretty land isss a nice change of pace from hearing about threatning or creepy placesss... >>>
AA: [side effects?]=[i am not sure if you have mentioned this to me before.]
AA: [it is.]=[mine varies greatly in elevation, so it is a little hard to travel.]=[but it is very colorful.]
PP: <<< are you sssure???... I'm sssure I've mentioned the drowsssinessssss issssssue ssseveral timesss by now... >>>
AA: [i do remember you mentioning that.]=[i could not recall the cause, though.]=[it comes with having so much on my mind, i guess!]
PP: <<< that'sss fine... don't worry yourssself over sssomething even I can't figure out... >>>
PP: <<< isss your land full of hillsss???... >>>
AA: [that is strange, though.]=[to my knowledge, nothing seems to be affecting me like that in my land.]=[but they all sound very different from one another.]
AA: [yes.]=[and they are made of what appears to be marble.]=[it is very pretty.]
AA: [i should tell you that i need to leave.]=[that is, if you are still there, which i am not sure that you are.]
AA: [but i hope i will get to talk to you again s∞n!]=[please be careful with everything.]
AA: [and, ah, please message me if you ever want to talk.]=[about anything!]
AA: [yes, so, um...]=[g∞dbye!]
