RS: / in dreadful news / i am sick / and am going to miss the third opening of daybreak as a result /
RS: / if anyone feels so kindly / as to make themselves useful / please share your folk remedies /
RS: / unless they involve alcohol / i have already tried that /
ID: ...i always heard that you were just supposed to rest through sickness. but i don't think that's a folk remedy.
RS: / well / that seems a marvelous way to stay sick /
ID: does it? i just figured that resting heals wounds. sickness is like a wound right. well, uh. eat a lot? give yourself the energy you need to. not be sick?
RS: / oh / i don't know / why don't you go ask sipara / ? / i'm sure she'd know / RS: / and / haha / i think we can open the floor to other remedies again / i was thinking more / mm / RS: / gargle with coconut milk mixed with pepper sauce / and you will be fine / ? /
ID: sips is busy with traffic i think. but i think i'm probably right-ish.
ID: if your throat is sore i don't think. irritating it with pepper sauce is a good move. wouldn't that just make it hurt more? =:?
RS: / right / ish /
RS: / and / yes / it turned out it did / but it also cleared the / cavity / ? / the snout chasm / y
RS: / the interior tubing /
RS: / ? /
ID: ...you gonna be okay there?
ID: maybe you should now have something cool. to soothe the damage.
DD: oh dear thats very unfortunate are you sure you have to miss the screening i mean also it is unfortunate that you are sick but DD: it is a common remedy so my apologies if you have obviously already tried it but have you tried pressing the tendrils of an eight-tendriled aquatic beakbeast to your throat i find it often helps with clearing up the soreness and swelling though admittedly the resulting circular marks are not the most attractive but they can be covered up with a scarf or choker easily
RS: / you know / the / جَيْب صُدْغيّ / RS: / i am fine / it cleared that / mostly / so / it was worth it / mostly / RS: / i have been consuming water / it's fine / you can't actually burn yourself / i am sure / RS: / / / i have not / but / oh / hm /
RS: / how does that work / ="? /
RS: / =:? /
ID: ...i do not know what that is. and i don't think daz would know either.
ID: and also. uh. daz we don't have aquatic beakbeasts just. on hand. that's a pretty impossible remedy i think.
DD: that is correct i am afraid i cannot read that word and i am still not quite up and about yet so my glasses cannot translate for me DD: and well i didnt want to make assumptions about rs and his location i am sure they are highly prevalent in any seaside locales any pharmaceutical establishment worth their salt must have some
RS: / well / i don't recall it / either form / the interior tubing system / ? /
RS: / well / whatever / you get the gist / RS: / i could find one / thank you / ! / =:) / but / please explain further /
RS: / they live in water / and there are crabs here / so i expect there should be aquatic beakbeasts / ? /
ID: is it like. a special variety of beakbeast. or any of them?
DD: oh um i know the ones i usually might use but i am not sure if maybe the same ones that you should on account of differences in constitution???
DD: try finding a colorful one but like not too colorful and especially not blue i think maybe the blue ones would hurt more than they help
DD: and i think many places have both crabs and aquatic beakbeasts or just one or just the other but chances are that you can probably find one they are not especially uncommon
DD: im sorry im afraid i am not entirely certain about how fragile lowbloods are
ID: ...i for some reason don't think this is such a good idea. what works for seadweller throats might not work for a maroon.
RS: / my apologies / i was temporarily indisposed /
RS: / and / ah / RS: / constitution differences are a touch over played / but / ah / not to cast doubts on your judgment / but /
RS: / aren't the coloured ones deadly /
RS: / ? / it seems unsafe for you to place them on your air passing channel / =:C /
RS: / perhaps if you place it on your wrist / instead / ? /
DD: well i mean they are not all deadly but i mean thats why i said maybe dont get the very colorful ones the degree of colorfulness generally correlates pretty wel lto how poisonous they are but it is the poison that in small quantities helps reduce the illness i think as well as of course the physical stimulation to reduce swelling
DD: and i mean i think probably if you put it on your wrist it wouldnt really do anything unless i guess your wrist is sick
ID: ...maybe you should just try some hot bone broth instead pheres.
RS: / ah / yes / my apologies / dd / but I believe I am a little too / mm / frail of constitution right now / to go out and fetch an octopi / and i don't expect anyone would retrieve one for me / haha / ! /
RS: / but / thank you ever so much / for your explanations / and your attempt to help / it is deeply appreciated / =:) /
DD: oh um youre really super welcome i am just sad that it did not end up being especially helpful and im really sorry that youre feeling that unwell do you think you will be alright i mean maybe i can order a drone or something for delivery if you want
DD: in that i am pretty sure i cant retrieve an aquatic beakbeast for you but maybe a drone can bring some cough syrup or trollbuprofen or something
ID: whoa there, getting fancy with the whole actual medicine stuff now.
RS: / haha / nooo / but thank you / i have been advised against taking drugs from strangers on the internet /
RS: / but /
RS: / the sentiment is endearing /
RS: / besides / i have work to do / i cannot do work if i am asleep / which is what those will do '
RS: /
ID: what sort of work? it can't be. put off for a night so you can recover? =:/
DD: oh dear when you put it that way it sounds a lot more alarming
RS: / but never mind that / that is enough about me / how are you both tonight / ? /
RS: /// the statement on the very top was a joke / by the way / i am aware i forgot an emoticon / but / please trust that i am laughing / in a friendly way /
DD: but also in this case i think i am probably in agreement with hads in that he said earlier that you should probably rest it might not fix you but it will speed up the recovery process and also probably you will feel less awful DD: and yes dont worry haha i understand or i mean i do now at least i was not entirely certain earlier but at least fifty percent certain
DD: i am also not doing especially well mostly due to also physical reasons but i am optimistic about things improving if i just power through this for a little bit and also i am going to get orange juice later like prisma suggested to cheer myself up
ID: also get one of those vibrating bracelet alarms while you're out.
ID: also this is your alarm telling you to eat if you haven't already.
ID: ...i'm doing. stuck in a truck with sips. playing with the radio.
DD: oh right you mentioned that i DD: admittedly am not entirely sure where to find one and i might order it online instead and hope that it arrives in a timely manner DD: also why are you stuck in a truck
SA: i have never seen a small troll so happy in my life.
SA: I bought them ice cream.
TT: what flavor TT: if you say smTh like vanilla you are going To a(\/)Tually die
SA: why do you hate vanilla so much?
SA: I bought them what they liked best.
SA: it was butter pecan.
ID: guess what chat, i'm bored and bitchy so someone should give me a reason not to be.
ID: or a reason to be more bitchy. that works too.
DD: i think i would prefer to give you a reason to be less bitchy
DD: and in light of that it might be worth asking what you are feeling bitchy about!
DD: you can think of it as talking about your problems but also lets be real gossip is fun and bitching about yout bitchy feelings is cathartic
ID: pff well at least you're honest about why you're concerned. =:P i'm just bitchy because of some stuff that happened that i'm not about to share on the chat. for fear of the wrong eyes seeing.
ID: so sorry, no gossip!
DD: well thats unfortunate clearly i have no reason to keep talking to you DD: im joking of course i am sorry that bad things happened the fun part of gossip is getting together with friends to trash talk the people you dislike not the nature of the suffering itself DD: in the end it is my overall preference that my friends do not feel shitty DD: and as we have totally established we are at least on the first tier of friendship >:D
ID: you a trash talking pro then there daz? =:P i'll have to remember not to upset you. so you can't drag my good name through the mud.
ID: the first step of a long climb, you gotta be dedicated to this friendship.
DD: well okay to be honest i am not usually the one doing the trash talking unless it is in respect to my mechanical equipment some of which has developed an attitude as a result of the artificial intelligence frames i have installed to assist me with my work but that is more affectionate trashtalking like one might perform when calling their pet cuttlefish fat DD: mostly it is my friend trash talking but when i have issues i have to acknowledge usually it is me messing up like it was earlier with prisma and in those cases i just kind of go be by myself a bit because trash talking is fun but me crying to someone is significantly less so
DD: and of course i am dedicated or well as dedicated as i have reason to be which is to say you are fun to talk to and i can see myself doing so for the forseeable future but i am afraid i am not yet ready to lay down my life for you no matter how much colorful claw varnish you introduce me to
ID: man can you type. or is this a talk to text program. either way you're fast. and wordy.
ID: not saying its bad.
ID: before you get offended.
DD: i type very quickly but i am told i talk very quickly as well it is sometimes a problem but unfortunately i have a hard time telling when it is appropriate to stop because really i want to say all of the things that are relevant and i think theyre all important DD: also i am not offended dont worry you are only saying the truth
ID: and you should trash talk more, it's great.
DD: i dont really have anybody to trash talk though!
DD: except maybe the people on team jaycob
DD: they have awful taste that is quite worthy of trashing
ID: so far i don't think we've seen any of them around.
DD: the problem remains! 😦
DD: to clarify that is a sarcastic smiley i am not actually that torn up over the issue of not having a fight to pick with people and i am afraid i have been coming of as sufficiently ditzy lately that that may be unclear
ID: hahah, well. if it makes you feel better chat rooms are hard to guage that sort of shit.
ID: though some people put /s at the end of sarcastic remarks to indicate sarcasm.
DD: i feel like thats a little bit too on the nose sometimes
ID: also the colorful claw varnish is the best and you're really missing out by not going out and purchasing some that changes color.
DD: but its still probably better than a long paragraph explaining my intentions so i will keep it in mind!
ID: it's hella fun to run under different temperatured water.
ID: just use it when you reallllyyyy don't want someone to get offended.
DD: and oh dear well that is what we are going shopping for later isnt it! DD: there is not very much of anything at all to buy here in such a small town though admittedly the local burgers are delicious and its always more fun to buy that sort of thing in person with friends than just ordering it online for drone delivery
ID: because when they're already het up a long explanation can make it worse.
DD: why would people be offended?
ID: also yeah you probably went to the same burger place as i did with gliese and they had some fantastic burgers.
ID: because it can come off as...
ID: what's the word.
ID: that means you're talking down to a troll because you think they're dumb.
DD: condescending!
ID: that.
DD: and oh dear that makes sense DD: i think that was the issue with my apology explanation earlier as well DD: i was worried that i might be misrepresenting myself and i did not want prisma to think i was acting out of malice but really it came off like i thought he was dumb
DD: that sucks 😦
ID: yeah, it's a slippery slope of being understood and coming off as a prick.
ID: slipperier for you since you're a fish.
DD: !!
DD: what do you mean
ID: ....look, you know how stereotypes work right.
ID: the biggest stereotype for a fish for us lowbloods is that every troll with fins is a jerk.
DD: i have had little experience with socializing with large numbers of people DD: i have had much experience with watching tv
DD: and oh dear
DD: ... i guess i knew that i just didnt really think about it or how it might apply to me
ID: yeahhh. see you're in a position where you can just. not apply things to yourself and be safe doing it.
ID: where us lowerbloods have to be more wary and careful.
ID: better to assume a highblood is gonna mess you up. rather than trust one and get fucked up. y'know?
DD: ... yeah
DD: that makes sense DD: D:
DD: ... do i maybe come off like a person that would mess somebody else up though like generally stereotypes aside
ID: well i mean.
ID: if you were really devoted.
ID: some fish like to play the long con.
DD: the long con??
DD: i mean i understand what you mean i just dont understand why that would be something that you might be concerned about somebody else doing
ID: ...because i like living.
ID: and am also maybe a little paranoid.
DD: hm! DD: i am just asking because i mean yes i understand that i am a seadweller and this means i am sturdier than most lowbloods but also there are other seadwellers fully capable of hurting me too both physically emotionally socially and financially and in fact i have recently narrowly escaped an assassination attempt but i suppose i still do not see that much reason to be consistently concerned about somebody playing a long con on me DD: thought maybe that is why somebody tried to cull me so you may have a point in that respect
ID: hahah why did they try to assassinate you...? =:/
ID: is that what happened to your horns.
DD: yes!
DD: and i suppose it is because i am one of the two chief executives of a very rapidly successful starship tech company and there are some issues with you know brand competition
DD: and resentment because the field thus far has been dominated primarily by long-standing memebers of it an i am fairly young as well as the issue that well
iD: oh. yeah. cut-throat business, they don't like the new fish muscling in on things. i get it. i mean it's shitty but i understand.
DD: one of the other recent entrants into the field of helmstechnology development is qpin and they are uniquely known for their ruthless competitiveness though of course i cant strictly say that they were behind it
DD: though my co-ceo says it was likely them because the queenpin is the head and she has a lot of trouble in terms of competitiveness on account of being a jadeblood
DD: but all of that is politics and i am afraid that i am not particularly great at it and i have no idea who it was
ID: ...also jeesh i guess i should have. expected you to be working on helm shit since you're at the helm station. i'm kinda glad you're not allowed to talk about what you're developing now.
ID: but congrats on not dying.
ID: or becoming too maimed to continue working.
ID: sorry about the horns though.
DD: thank you!!
DD: i appreciate your celebration of my narrow avoidance of death : P
DD: also what is wrong with as you phrased it helm shit?
DD: i will refrain from talking about it if it makes you uncomfortable but i am afraid i dont understand
ID: you're the only person who is apparently willing to chat tonight so i'm glad you survived long enough to chat. =:P
ID: i don't like helm shit. it's like.
ID: the text version of claws on a chalkboard for me.
DD: truly high accolades
SA: nobody asked if they wanted me in the chat :/
DD: and oh my goodness well i will keep that in mind
DD: umm
ID: pris! sorry, i assumed you were napping.
SA: i'm teasing.
DD: i think maybe the assumption was that you were not present on account of earlier hads said-
DD: oh
DD: oops
ID: =:P
ID: 💚
DD: 💜 >:D
DD: do you maybe have anything that you would like to trash talk about because we have recently arrived at the conclusion that it is a worthwhile endeavor but i have nobody to trash talk and hads is being very secretive about the source of his miffedness
ID: yeah pris, give us some trash talk. =:P
SA: oh.
SA: um.
SA: ...
SA: this is. rather hard.
DD: unless of course you would like to join hads in the club of secretiveness which i assume is alternatively titled the club of the subjects of the trash talking being potentially present in the chatroom at a later date?
SA: no, I have no secret salt. I have made most of it known.
ID: yeah pris is a pretty honest guy.
DD: oh in that case what is difficult?
SA: I do not tend to hold on to animosity for extreme periods of time.
SA: It takes energy I do not have.
SA: I would rather reserve it for stopping hadean from getting into a bonus fight after Ashley.
SA: let me think.
ID: =:PPPP
DD: oh dear DD: see that statement there sounds a little bit like salt though maybe perhaps not the sort that is meant to be a source of amusement
ID: i need a post-victory fight tho pris!
SA: i think that it's very stupid that high bloods become very offended when I enter their space.
SA: they can't stand the idea i have as much money as them.
SA: that is sufficiently salty.
DD: also i think i understand that i tend to not hold onto angry feelings for very long but i in general am a lot more inclined to be sad rather than mad
ID: i'll take it! that's some salt. fuck them for getting snooty.
DD: and i appreciate the pun there though i am not sure what you mean DD: i dont find you offensive to be around at all
ID: the stereotypical fish daz.
DD: oh this is about stereotypes again
SA: it must be hard to live life with such a fragile ego that because someone is well-tailored and capable of pulling several thousand out of their wallet in cash, you must threaten them as much as possible to feel powerful again.
ID: do i gotta punch someone for you pris?
SA: you do not need a post victory fight you need a post-victory ice cream and bandaids.
ID: =:PPPP
SA: also dazzle I am regularly somewhat salty at Hadean. it is the spice of our friendship.
DD: yes seconding hads though more in spirit of concern rather than desire to actually punch anybody what i mean is that it sounds like you recently had a bad experience
DD: is that why hads is the saltlick
SA: yes but taht's also because he's salty anyways.
SA: ❤
ID: is salt a spice now.
ID: 💚
DD: <3< ??
ID: what.
SA: i did not recently have one, no. It just happens when I leave the loft. I live in West Haven, which is majority high-bloods.
ID: no. definitely no.
DD: platonic spade i suppose but i cannot find it in blue
DD: or purple or green
SA: oh no. It's not like that at all.
SA: I thought salt was a spice... is something only a spice if it grows?
ID: idk.
ID: daz is salt a spice.
DD: i am going to say yes though mostly out of convenience for the sake of making puns and less because i actually know
SA: oh.
SA: well that's as good of an answer as any.
DD: although on the topic of growing i can at least say acid is often used to spice food underwater so
DD: there is at least that
SA: that sounds like. hell.
SA: but i suppose i won't judge i eat scorpions.
ID: ...how does. acid food taste...?
ID: does acid impart a flavor?
SA: is it citrus-y, dazzle
DD: that depends on the acid you use i suppose sometimes it is bitter and other times it is more sour and unfortunately i cannot tell you if it is citrusy on account of i have never had a citrus fruit though it does not taste much like orange candies if that helps
DD: also it is often used to cook food not just season it
ID: huh.
ID: weird.
SA: you should try an orange sometime. they are wonderful
DD: more weird than eating scorpions?? :{
DD: and apparently also squirrels
ID: i like berries the best out of fruit. but they're usually more expensive.
SA: I do not eat rodents.
ID: since they spoil quicker.
ID: i eat squirrels. =:P
SA: horrid.
ID: any port in a storm pris.
DD: i will have to try both oranges and berries in that case maybe even a smoothie consisting of both 😄
SA: do not do that.
SA: Orange is a very particular flavor.
DD: i am taking this landdweller food thing step by step
DD: oh
DD: interesting
SA: citrus pairs well with other citrus.
ID: try orange juice.
ID: that's easy to find.
SA: lemon and lime, for example. Or Mango and orange.
SA: yes.
SA: orange juice.
ID: mango is a citrus? =:????
SA: ,...I always thought it was.
SA: "While both citrus and tropical fruits are grown in warm climates, citrus fruits refer specifically to the genus of flowering fruits in the Rutaceae family, which include oranges, grapefruits and lemons as well as certain other species and hybrids such as the pomelo, key lime and citron. Mango is not a citrus"
SA: now I'm mad at Hadean for telling me mango is not a citrus.
DD: i think i will just buy a pile of fruit
DD: and see which ones i enjoy
SA: and ruining sweeps of disbelief.
ID: ...i mean. mangos are too sweet for a citrus.
ID: was my logic.
SA: are... are oranges not sweet to you.
ID: not as sweet as a mango!
ID: oranges have that citrus taste!
SA: make sure you learn how to prepare them, Dazzle.
DD: you mean you cant eat them raw??
ID: yeah but some of them you don't eat the outsides.
ID: like citrus fruits.
DD: maybe i can go to a fruit restaurant
SA: just putting a mango in your mouthi s not the most brilliant idea.
ID: but you can eat the outside of a mango can't you?
SA: no.
SA: you also can't eat the outside of a banana.
SA: or.
SA: You can but it will make you very sad.
SA: I learned this the hard way.
SA: It was unfortunate.
ID: 'Answer: Although the pit of a mango isn't considered edible, some people do eat the mango skin. The skin is bitter-tasting, but the peel contains several healthful chemical compounds, including powerful antioxidants mangiferin, norathyriol, and resveratrol.'
ID: i have no idea what any of those words mean.
SA: so the short version is it will make you sad.
SA: healthy.
SA :but sad.
DD: i need to be healthier i think but i do not want to be more sad
DD: but maybe the health will be making up for it because honestly most of my sadness as of late has come from my health
SA: are you of poor constitution?
ID: i'll be honest and admit i've never eaten a mango. so i was guessing on eating the skin.
DD: not usually!!!
DD: i am just
ID; adjusting to being on land?
DD: not used to living on the land and everything is very dry and my gills hurt a lot and everything tastes weird so i am also hungry all the time
DD: and also everything is very hot
SA: you would probably be happier in a bay area.
SA: why they let you move to a desert
SA: Is beyond me.
ID: because of the station pris.
SA: yes, but... why put it there.
ID: close to a lowblood settlement.
DD: because it is a remote location where i am unlikely to be found again by the person who previously attempted to assassinate me and also because there is a psionic training station that is located in the area on account of it being a lowblood locale with a high psionic concentration
SA: oh so abducting.
DD: and that is very useful for my research
ID: easy to lure them away from a shitty town to be experimented on.
DD: i mean i am
DD: unsure i would phrase it that way
DD: ... the luring not the town thing the town is pretty shitty
ID: good thing i did it for you.
DD: oh dear
ID: you're poor and life sucks and maybe your lusus is dead and you're scared.
ID: some highblood offering you candy if you come to his station sounds pretty good.
DD: actually i believe most of the recruiting is done through online means
SA: a more polite way of saying it would be that it is often easier to accept being an pet and know you are cared for than it is to be free and struggle.
ID: ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ my point remains.
DD: and the payment tends to be in caegars and i know that is not what you mean i simply think you maybe are not representing it very accurately
ID: it's still sucky to do.
ID: most of those trolls have to choose between that and death.
DD: i mean it is also kind of sucky to work public service at a cafe but
ID: ...i mean a cafe doesn't screw things in to you.
SA: being a living experiment and test subject is very different from being subject to a screaming indigo about how their latte was not enough foam.
ID: you can leave a shitty cafe job.
SA: ...do they foam lattes...
SA: I dont know.
SA: I have the all the time, and I have never thought about it.
ID: and you're probably less likely to die in a cafe job.
ID: or fry your psi.
ID: and probably get culled for that.
DD: well i mean first of all the only test subjects are the two cerulean trolls i believe and also the people that volunteer to help me out but that part is not mandatory the main purpose of this station is to prepare trolls that have been conscripted for helmservice for an easier transition upon ascension and also accept anybody that would like to volunteer for the service without conscription not
DD: testing things really
ID: yeah well i bet if you asked a lot of wrigglers why they volunteered.
ID: you'd get a lot of 'i didn't have any other option' answers.
DD: hm
DD: i guess i do not know
SA: does it not
SA; unsettle you.
ID: you sure don't! but the first step is realizing you don't know.
SA: that our ships are using an archiac biotechnical method of power when we could built a technical system or a disocnnecting system for them.
SA: My pilot training used my inhibitor to join and disconnect me from a ship without hurting me in the slightest.
SA: and yet this isn't the norm.
ID: man you also hear those stories about them chopping a helms' fronds off.
ID: since they don't need them for anything.
DD: well as a starship technician i kind of have to argue your useage of the word archaic because the biotech we have developed is currently eons ahead of our purely mechanical methods of transportation which are heavily limited by both fuel systems and speed and also i am not sure that you are hearing accurate stories about limb removal that is definitely not a standard practice and would probably be actively detrimental to the process and helmsman adjustment and biowire integration DD: as would be constantly placing the pilot into painful situations upon connect and reconnect though maybe that may be the case withoutdated systems??? DD: the point of helmsman system design is to ensure a fluid and efficient connection
ID: ...huh.
ID: i mean tbh i never really paid attention to schoolfeeding about helms since. you gotta figure that stuff is just propaganda to make you think it's great.
DD: a decent amount of it probably is but that is the case with all fleet propaganda!! which is not necessarily a bad thing to be honest if you ask me personally because focusing on the negative aspects of a situation is never going to motivate anybody when you think about it regardless of what the job it
ID: i mean the ratio of cons to pros of some jobs are a lot easier to swallow than others. =:P
DD: that is very true DD: i would not want to be a garbage person i am not ashamed to admit this
ID: and i like walking.
DD: or a fighter like sipara i am fairly sturdy but i do not like being attacked
ID: if you could not tell by my adventurer lifestyle.
ID: and you can say that i can explore wayyyy more stuff in a ship but i'm pretty sure it is soooo not the same.
DD: haha yes that is true i suppose i do not consider it much considering i am both very fond of swimming over walking and also my experience on starships as a nonpsionic troll involves not very much walking anyways
DD: partially because i am stuck in my coon trying to adjust to orbit but also primarily because there is also not much room to walk
ID: ...i guess since i've already dived in to this ball of squick i might as well ask since you'd know best.
ID: does like. your kind of psi make you better or worse or not usable for a helm?
DD: yes very much so!
DD: there is a psionic ranking system of course in terms of the amount of raw power available but also the type of psionics make a difference for example cerulean psychics and indigos are not functional for ship powering at all and varieties among lowbloods that exhibit nonphysical properties such as clairvoyance are typically not high enough on the actual kinetic energy production to be able to power a ship with any efficiency as conversion to a useable power source is often very inefficient and also takes up energy in the process which rather defeats the point
DD: for example telekinetic type psionics tend to be the most effective for helming while more psychically oriented powers are not
SA: sometimes hybridization allows multifaceted psionics but it's also very rare in natural occurance.
SA: i can pilot a starfighter with my telekinesis as long as the ship and my inhibitor are programmed to allow the link through.
Sa: But an entire ship wuld be beyond me.
SA; and for the most part starfighters rely on a psion's ability to generate shields and manipulate other variables for a quicker reactions time, but not flight itself.
DD: there are also augments that assist with that!
ID: hahahah okay can this be enough helms talk now.
ID: i've exceeded my comfort zone.
DD: that is part of what the psionic training facility that i am part of helps with-
DD: oh dear my apologies
DD: i will stop!
SA: 😃
ID: i mean i asked so it's fine.
ID: just. new convo now plzkthx.
ID: ...i mean i should volunteer a new subject huh.
ID: pris did you have dinner?
ID: both of you for that matter.
ID: miss hungry because i don't eat.
SA: ...
SA: maybe.
ID: =>:I the ice cream you had earlier isn't dinner btw.
SA: i had a fruit salad.
DD: dinner??
DD: ...
DD: oh dear
DD: i am afraid i lost track of time
DD: i was going to say i did have dinner but that feels as though it was a long time ago and it occurs to me that that may have been dinner yesternight and it is possible that part of my discomfort with my health is because i am actually very hungry
ID: i'm gonna make you both set alarms to eat. =>:(
ID: a fruit salad and ice cream isn't enough for a night pris.
SA: mrmrm.
SA: I'll be back in a bit.
ID: if you get lonely while eating call sips' mobile and i'll steal it to vid chat. =:P
SA: well I may as well call it now then.
SA: i am.
SA: go find it.
ID: woofbesat, fetch. i see how it is. =:PPP
DD: i unfortunately tend to not notice my alarms it has been somewhat detrimental my friend used to ahve somebody come pull me away from my work and i thought it was sillybut now i am realizing it was probably very necessary
ID: get one of those bracelets that vibrate as an alarm.
ID: they might work better.
DD: but also that is my cue to go find food before i keel over and die so goodbye it was lovely talking to you and also that is a good idea i should find one of those
ID: ...damnit now the chat is empty again. =>:(
VC: Not quite.
VC: I'm taking a rrest on a courrierr trip, what's everryone else up to?
ID: uh i sent all the hungry skeletons off to eat because they all forget or think that a fruit salad is a meal.
ID: so they're doing that. and i'm just sitting here twiddling ym thumbs and watching pris eat on vid-chat on another mobile.
ID: ....is it rude to text someone while watching another troll in a vid chat.
SA: i'm talking.
SA: asshole.
SA: that. that wasn't serious
VC: Oh, I don't think I've met you before, SA.
SA: Hello.
SA: I am prisma.
ID: =:P i can multitask pris!
VC: I'm Cennef. And you and Hadean apparently know each other well, I take it?
ID: yeah we're buds.
ID: pris is cool, so be nice to him. =:P
SA: cennef. it's nice to meet you.
VC: He's yellow, what reason do I have to _not_ be civil?
VC: It's not like he's one of this room's silly highbloods.
VC: You seem well-mannerrred, so I agrree in turrn.
ID: he can speak kinda highblood-y sometimes but it was just how he was raised so don't pick on him. =:P
VC: Mannerrs and phrrassing of some things isn't an exclusive highblood trrait. I harrdly would.
VC: Pherrres talks like he's trrrying to sound cerrulean sometimes and that doesn't botherr me.
ID: i mean glad you understand that. some lowbloods get so offended when you use a 'highblood' term!
ID: like saying tub is gonna turn you blue.
VC: Ha. I may not carre forr highbloods, but - oh _rreally_
VC: Using theirr language isn't exactly a sin.
VC: That's rridiculous.
ID: you've never met a lowblood who got all snooty with you over it?
ID: the 'uhm, did you mean ABLUTION TRAP?' types?
VC: I suppose I have now that I think of it, but they arren't exactly trrolls I spent a lot of time arround.
VC: My ex quads werren't like that at all, norr arre any of my currrent frriends.
ID: wise move. there's having a grudge against highbloods and then there's overcull.
VC: I rreally only have a grrrudge against _one_ highblood, but I do lack fondness forr them in generral.
SA: i overcull teal bloods.
VC: Though perrhaps it might be prrrudent to stop talking about it in case any of them do come in.
SA: they have always patronized me.
SA: 😉
VC: Pfft, what
VC: I know you'rre joking, but I don't rreally get it
ID: hahah, it's a chat thing. we joke that teals are the worst because they're in the middle so they lash out more.
VC: Ohhhh
VC: To be honest, I have only met one tealblood outside of deliverries, which don't rreally count.
VC: He was...verrry odd.
ID: that's a tealblood for you.
VC: Well, he wasn't a lawtroll orr anything. He was some sorrt of perrforrmer.
ID: ...huh. was it the dumpster troll.
ID: ...do you know what i'm talking about. probably not.
VC: ...he cerrtainly _belonged_ in a dumpsterr but otherrwise no, I do not.
VC: Mine talked like some sorrt of flowerrry idiot and called himself barrd.
VC: Is that what this dumpsterr trroll did.
ID: yes!
VC: Oh my god.
SA: why is there a known dumpster dweller.
ID: he got ceruleans mad about historical bulge piercings.
SA; what dessert should I get?
VC: _Oh my god._
ID: and they threw him in a dumpster.
ID: ...the fluffy one.
VC: For once. I am on the bluebloods' side.
VC: _What is wrong with him._
VC: Correction.
VC: How many things arrre wrrong with him.
ID: and then he started dueling them in the dumpster.
VC: Though I'd probably be -
VC: _Highbloods._
ID: until someone came and rescued his hide.
ID: it was hilarious.
VC: That's completely rrridiculous.
ID: it was. but that made it hilarious.
ID: so what are you delivering...?
VC: Sorry, I was getting back on the road. I have my phone on talk-to-text now. It's some sorrrt of book collection for this olive.
ID: you're fine. how are you traveling? and that sounds. boring.
VC: Haha, I have no clue. They could be about stunning adventurrres, for all I know. I don't usually get told the details of what I deliverrr, unless they'rre imporrtant forr trransit.
VC: I rrride my lusus.
VC: She's not exactly a hoofbeast orr anything, but she can go at a decent pace with a trroll as small as I am.
ID: heyy a troll after my own pumper. though my lusus is a variety of hoofbeast.
VC: Ohh, what kind?
ID: antelope kind. but one of the big ones. he can carry me and my stuff no problem. and we have similar rocking racks.
VC: Pfft. Do you now.
VC: I have decently sized horns myself.
ID: about time. like this chat is mostly nubhorn central.
VC: I can prrrove I am not nubhorned.
VC: Ignorre the goofy exprression, this is just what I had on frrond. Also unforrrtunately I should pay attention to the terrrain now, it's getting rrough.
ID: huh. sorry i've not got an image right on hand to share. and i'm not in the prettiest shape for selfies, so you'll just have to take me at my word. =:P
VC: Haha
VC: Well I fully expect one laterrr
VC: But underrstandable - ow
VC: I rreally _should_ stop talking, dammit
ID: your lusus bad at navigating?
SA: the fluffy one
SA: that didn't tell me anything...
ID: point the camera at the menu for me.
SA: there...
ID: uhhh. the lemon tart thingy. since you said you like citrus.
II: Well, that was a bit disappointing, but it'll all be useful for the fleet I suppose.
II: What is everyone else up to?
ID: a whole lot of nothing.
II: That can be restful!
II: Unless you are bored, haha.
ID: i mean i need plenty of rest, so i'm taking it.
II: Ah, are you recovering from something?
ID: yuppp. got a broken arm and a big ol wound to the shoulder.
II: My goodness. That sounds like quite the fight. Or accident?
ID: definitely fight. all legal, i promise! =:P
II: Pfft, I wasn't going to question you. There are plenty of legal skirmishes on Alternia.
II: In fact I'd say there are probably more legal than not.
ID: it was mostly a joke, dw.
II: Haha
II: Fair
II: ...oh, bother, I swear if one more tall tealblood gets in my way...
II: Why is everyone so _towering_ .
SA: break kneecaps 😃
II: It might be good for some of the neophytes, but greatly frowned upon.
ID: how tall are you?
II: Not terribly short, but short for my caste. 5'5
II: And I swear half these teals look like someone stretched them and pulled them.
ID: i'm 6'1" so. member of the stretch and pull club here.
II: Oh my, you _are_ tall for a rust
II: That must be useful
ID: oh yeah, get to pop over the waves of rust. totes useful.
II: Pfft
II: _Finally._ I thought they'd never stop crowding the doors.
ID: i was scared of blending in, y'know. with all the other horn-floating tattooed maroons. thankfully i have my height to be unique.
II: Ah yes. Your most distinguishing feature, I am sure.
II: You are such a normal troll otherwise. Painfully dull.
ID: i know. shame i haven't taken up a life of crime, you'd never find me in all the other dull faces.
II: Pffft
ID: =;P
II: I have never actually used an emote before
II: But I feel compelled to respond with one
II: 😹
II: ... never mind
II: That looks terrible
II: 🐱 there, much cuter
ID: yeah that. was not a wise choice.
ID: that's better.
II: Haha, it was not, who made that monstrosity I wonder?
II: I thought cat emotes would be cute. That looks awful.
ID: 🐯
ID: ....
ID: 🐅
ID: hey that one isn't too bad.
II: 🦁
II: That one's a bit odd.
SA: 🐍
SA: 🐃 it's your lusus
ID: 🦌
ID: mix those two together, maybe.
II: Haha, it's been a while since I was at circus
II: ...which is a good thing, admittedly.
II: Though some of them do have wonderful menageries.
ID: i was wondering why you were hanging with the teals and all when your caste usually did.
ID: other things.
II: Other less than tasteful activities you mean?
II: Don't worry. I don't endorse a lot of what the church does, even if I am technically part of it. It needs heavy reform in some areas.
ID: i was gonna leave it at other, but p much! =:P
II: Tactful of you, but I certainly don't mind.
II: In the legislacerator business you learn to talk frankly about Imperial bodies. They have their flaws like any other.
II: But that's a dreary topic for most people, so instead I think I'll segue into commenting on this lovely train I'm on.
ID: hahahah, trains are a safer subject for a lil rustie to comment on anyways. =:P
ID: does it have a snack cart.
II: I think if anyone ever called you a "lil rustie" they'd lose a limb, but of course it does.
II: What is a train without a snack cart, I ask you.
II: Incomplete.
ID: you could play along with my weak lil rustie gig, hella rude. =:'(
II: Ha
ID: ...though tbh i was never good at it.
II: Nice try, I've known far too many rusts to fall for that.
II: Idiot neophytes in my class got themselves killed underestimating lowbloods. I learned not to make their mistakes.
ID: well if it makes you feel better i have no plans of culling you, random stranger on the chatroom. =:P
II: Hahahaha
II: I figured not, what would you gain from it?
II: Nothing except a lot of trolls on your tail.
ID: ...i mean...
ID: things.
ID: your wallet.
ID: trolls have killed for less!
II: Pfft, wealth perha - oh, now I'm just hurt, only killing me for my wallet? Not for vengeance or something interesting? You wound me, ID.
II: At least make a penny dreadful out of it.
ID: i mean vengeance for what.
II: Oh I don't know, being purple. Some trolls are that petty.
ID: i mean. for a purpleblood you're like. the least offensive thing i've met.
II: Haha, well, I try to be reasonable. I think rather little of highbloods who believe they can be ill-mannered or wild just because of their blood.
II: They give all of us such a terrible image.
ID: yeah, well. they're pretty encouraged to be awful.
II: Mm, they are, it's deeply unfortunate.
II: I was lucky enough to be raised by trolls who taught me proper behavior young, but in places with less Imperial instruction standards can be _quite_ dismal.
ID: ...raised by trolls?
II: Oh, I had my lusus of course, but I _was_ part of the church's creche when young, before I changed my mind to go into law. So I was always surrounded by proctors of some sort.
ID: oh. huh.
ID: yeah i was raised in the desert.
II: Oh! They can be such fascinating places. What was your upbringing like?
II: Did you live on your own, or in a town?
ID: i had one neighbor pretty much.
II: Ah, isolated then.
ID: preeettttyyy much. we became buddies though. since. lack of options really.
II: Haha, naturally.
II: But you say you were raised there - I presume you left?
ID: oh, yeah. i travel now.
II: Do you? What sort of places do you go?
II: What kind of work do you do?
ID: uh i pretty much just pick a direction and walk.
ID: work is uh. mostly fighting trolls for money?
II: Oh, ring fighting? Or less formal street affairs?
ID: less formal. definitely.
ID: though sometimes ring.
ID: last fight was in a ring.
II: Do you have a preference, or is it simply a matter of convenience which you choose?
ID: ehhh i prefer less formal generally!
II: Smaller crowds and less pressure?
ID: but this time the guy challenged and the fact everyone was telling me i'd just get hurt if i did pissed me off.
II: Pfft, I can see that
ID: less rules. =:P
II: Always irritating to be told - hahaha
II: I suppose I can't argue with that, given my preferred method of combat is shooting my enemies with acid. That's certainly not in any honorable rule book.
II: But it is effective.
ID: whatever works, right?
ID: but yeah. i fucking hate being told i can't do shit.
II: Certainly, given my arsenal of other weapons and technology.
ID: get enough of that in life.
II: Certainly it seems silly to try and dissuade you from a fight, particularly if that is how you live.
ID: besides, it ended in a tie so everyone was wrong on who'd win!
II: Hahaha
II: That is amusing
ID: yeah, well. it happens. as long as no one got salty when i refused to listen, idgaf.
II: Well, I figure it's their problem if they do.
ID: p much! unless they got clades that you're friends with and then they get dragged in to it and it can get messy.
II: Hahah oh my, that sounds quite alarming.
ID: like i'm pretty sure there are trolls upset at what i did to the other guy.
ID: but whatever. he challenged me, and he was the one who made dumb mistakes in the fight.
ID: anddd i'll stop venting to a stranger about it now. sorry.
II: I don't mind! It sounds like it was quite the event.
II: I certainly have nothing better to do than stare at my fellow passengers or browse the internet, and most of the trolls around me aren't terribly interesting looking.
ID: it was fucking something alright.
ID: how long do you have to travel?
II: Oh, a few hours. The lecture I was at was firm-mandated, now I'm back on one of my own cases.
II: I mean, I get cases passed to me through the firm too, but it was a mandatory summons for everyone from our firm regardless of case.
ID: i see. an interesting case?
II: Mmm, I've had duller I suppose. It's mostly just cleaning up loose ends from a mutant fighting ring that was already busted, and we're just chasing down the remaining culprits.
II: Nothing terribly exciting, but it's necessary work.
ID: huh. well, good luck with that.
II: It should be fairly simple; we're not dealing with terribly smart trolls here. They got caught because one of their members accidentally left a _window_ open.
II: Laughably careless.
II: It's a wonder one of them had the brains to set it up in the first place.
ID: a brief spark of genius that quickly waned. =:P
II: In fact I think the leader got culled by some backstabbing subordinate, who then started to get complacent and run the organization with a looser hand, allowing us to get the drop on them.
ID: greed can be the downfall of many a troll i suppose.
ID: but hey, makes your job easier when they're culling each other.
II: Sometimes! Sometimes it leaves us with less information to catch the others with, unfortunately, but in this case that's not an issue.
ID: go on out there and keep our streets safe. =:P
ID: ...well. barely maybe safer.
II: _ha_
II: I'd need a whole team of trolls to make things safer
II: I'm very good at my job, but I'm only one person
ID: aww c'mon. just be troll batman.
II: HA
II: That costume would look ridiculous on me.
II: I adore the movies, mind you, despite the terrible example he sets.
II: But I could not get away with wearing that.
ID: ...troll batgirl?
II: Even worse in the costume department. I'd like a word with whoever designed that. Any legislacerator with half a brain wouldn't be caught dead in that. Insanely impractical.
ID: was it ever really designed to be practical though.
II: No, it was designed for lowlifes to drool over, certainly.
II: Which I suppose is its own appeal, but I can't see a costume like that as at all attractive given the career I have.
AM: Hello, hello sweet honies of the night~
ID: ...ii are you a sweet honey of the night.
ID: because i know i'm not.
AM: Sweetie, honey please. Don't be so down on your self! Anyone can be a sweet honey of the night if you play your cards right, doll!
ID: that sounds vaguely creepy as fuck. =:I
II: ...I believe I am more like a tasteful...never mind I forget where I was going with that, but I don't think so?
II: Certainly it's nice to be called sweet, but honey just seems redundant in that context.
II: It isn't as if honey is going to be bitter.
AM: Hmm...hmmm you've got that right then sugar. Listen babes if you want a different title then cough up some names then eh? Cause listen sweethearts we can dance around that all we want but it's MUCH better for everyone if we cut to the chase with these introductions. Now what's the set of letters stamped on those business cards of yours honies?
II: Gracious, aren't you forward.
AM: Time's money babe.
ID: i feel like i need a second bath tonight now.
ID: hadean.
II: ...I suppose I cannot argue with that. I am Indrid.
AM: Hadean and Indrid. Great meeting you two! Names Ashley- but listen. Babe. Listen. A second bath is a no go. Your skin will DESPISE you, even if you're moisturzing then toning and scrubbing thrice a week honey. It's just not good for that dermis of yours.
SA: i'm sorry what's happening here.
AM: Oh an actual honey! S'up honeysuckle what's YOUR name hm?
ID: run pris. run.
II: Flee.
SA: why am I fleeing.
ID: also i thought giving our names would stop the assault of nicknames. =:I
SA: and why do they keep calling you honey.
II: I haven't the faintest idea.
AM: Run, flee? Sweethearts PLEASe you're harming my poor self. I came in here for a good time and- here let's sit and just chat. Really babes, calm yourselves.
ID: names.
II: Haha, I was merely joking along with ID. It's never in good taste to not tag along with one's conversational partner.
AM: Yeah, yeah I got it bud. Chill it's fine. These EYES HERE, reading through some GRADE-A lenses and typing like the wind now for your names, babe- oop. Yes gotit.
AM: _Hadean_
II: What's your name, AM?
ID: there you go, give the barkbeast a bone.
ID: ashley.
AM: Ashley, sweet heart. Take note of it, I'm digging the VIBES in here I wanna swing around more often.
SA: i like the lowblood chat, i've decided.
SA: it's a safe place.
II: Take me with you. I _will_ miss ID's commentary.
ID: i multitask.
ID: like i'll let a purple scare me out of here.
II: Scare? They aren't so alarming, merely...unusually exuberant!
SA: oh it's not scary at all.
SA: I just. Don't understand.
AM: Oh, darlings, please. I'm not scary. Don't be so intimidated really, just everyone take a breath. A sip of Chai. Excuse me for just being so EXCITED babes.
II: Haha, I'm not intimidated. And surely we can forgive you being excited.
ID: i've been called honey and babe more in these few minutes than i've ever been subjected to in my life. =:I
SA: lavender chai?
II: I'm sure AM was merely unusually free with their charmingly tawdry speech out of gushing enthusiasm.
AM: A LAVENDER CHAI EXACTLY, look this, this one. I like you, what's your name babe?
AM: You've got good taste.
SA: ...Prisma.
SA: please do not call me babe.
AM: Prisma, sweetheart. You've got it.
SA: 👌
ID: i don't think he wants the sweetheart part either tho.
SA: it's preferable.
SA: I am still only perdia's honeycomb.
AM: Listen babes. Listen. I'm telling you this as someone that cares and is going to be forward. Noting held back here alright? Don't take the babe and sweetheart as like ahh...How do I say this nice. A ..PROPOSAL yes a proposal.
AM: It's just friendly sweet talk you know, sweethearts?
AM: A bit of sugar coating on the words. Can't leave a bitter taste in anyone's mouth after all. Nono. we can't have that haha
AM: Bad for business, yadayada.
SA: 🙊
AM: But let's not talk business babes.
SA: let's. Not. yes.
AM: Those are just all WONDERFUL handles by the way.
SA: mine. simply means disdainfully superior. disdainful aide.
SA: can they not read it that way?
AM: Again, honey. Stop that. Really. ITS HORRIBLE.
DD: oh dear i am afraid my eyes are crossing far too much to read that right now!
II: Oh, I don't know, it has its own charm.
SA: Is it actually that hard for you to read?
SA: it's. easy.
ID: nah, they're all machines and junk pris.
DD: well not if i turn my palmhusk upside down!
SA: hm.
SA: i didn't even have to turn it upside down...
DD: which i am doing from now on when that comes up
II: Mine is quite to the point about my job.
DD: then maybe you are very talented sa! ^_^
ID: you get used to it.
ID: if you write like that all the time.
DD: it is difficult for me but i guess i could do it if i focused really hard its just a little bit bothersome at the moment because ive been up for ages and i just had a burger (with cheese like you said id!!!!) and i think i am experiencing what people call a food coma
AM: I dig it. Straight forward. Classy. Clean cut. Uhg. I could just LOSE IT but I won't I'm not the jealous type sweety. It's a good name Indrid. Keep it. Never change.
II: Well, possibly one day if I change positions?
II: I would like to be a colony law enforcement head.
ID: hahah, was it good dd?
DD: and ooh are we talking about quirks??
ID: tags and their meanings mostly.
ID: but my tag had to do with my quirk.
SA: there are. so many officers or officer related people here.
DD: it was super good!!!! i asked for it rare like you guys said and it wasnt as weird as i thought it would be though the lettuce was a lot crunchier than i expected and i really liked the pickles but i like pickled things in general
AM: A promotion? Change it. ASAP. In that Case honey. AM: DD where'd you get it from if I may ask? What was the rating of the place? Lots of people there babe? how about the ingredients were they fresh and non-GMO?
ID: along with the fact that i'm an oppositional jerk.
ID: wtf is a gmo.
ID: and why do i need none of it.
II: GMOs aren't so bad, though some companies are rather...mm, overbearing about their guidelines.
DD: i am afraid i do not know all of that am i was too tired to check very much and i am new to this town so i just went to the closest sandwich shop nearby and it was just a local establishment!
II: Genetically Modified Organism.
DD: also gmos are great!
AM: BAd things sweety. Not good. Bad news. Stay AWAY from the GMO if you want that waistline to stay TRIM.
II: ...
II: anyway
ID: i mean starvation keeps me pretty fucking trim.
DD: i mean i think you really are misunderstanding the nature of genetic modification but um
DD: oh dear
DD: starvation??
ID: from time to time dd, it happens.
DD: !!!!
DD: thats really distressing!
DD: why are you starving??
ID: .....
AM: Hadean. That's effcient. Do you like eating tho honey? I got some amazing things I could send your way from a GREAT subscription box from this ADORABLE startup company if you want any.
ID: because of a lack of food/money for food?
ID: i like not being called honey because it comes off as kinda fucking creepy to have a stranger calling me honey.
DD: yes please take ams food maybe i should send you some and oh dear i thought they meant if you liked honey as in the food i
DD: oh dear
DD: um!!!
DD: are you starving right now???
II: GMOs aren't necessarily unhealthy.
ID: nah i'm not starving right now.
II: They can be, but it's not a given.
AM: Got it babe. noted. Write here. Sticky note ready. You want the snacks or not though? They're TRENDING like MAD.
ID: i'm fine with. non trending.
ID: my lusus always taught me not to take candy from strangers and all that.
II: Your lusus sounds like a good parent.
DD: okay i am very happy to hear that and i know we are not really that familiar with each other but maybe do you think if you are ever starving you would be comfortable with messaging me because i know you were uncomfortable earlier but really in the end maybe being a little bit uncomfortable is better than starving and um
Am: I mean in that case I've got LOADs of garbage from last weeks delivery cause let me tell you, LET ME TELL YOU. They didn't get the memo that KALE not the next super food. So it's just....there uhg. I can't even look at it Hadean. Tragic
AM: You sure ?
SA: oh my god.
ID: wtf is a kale.
AM: Power Green.
II: An uninspiring plant.
AM: Truer words have never been spoken Indrid.
AM: Awful. Just Awful plant.
DD: do they pickle it??
AM: It's Dried Kale chips babe.
II: Well. I'm sure it inspires someone.. But I've never found it to be very tasty. Give me a lovely spinach and lettuce salad any night.
SA: it is usually roasted or sauteed or dehydrated.
DD: pickled seaweed is nice DD: also just plain salted seaweed
DD: oh
DD: i do not think i have ever had a dehydrated food ever
AM: You want these sweetheart? I dont want them in my SIGHT anymore. Uhg. just god. Eyesore
II: Perhaps I could force-feed them to prisoners as a form of interrogation.
DD: i am okay!! i just had a burger for the first time and i think that is enough adventure for now really
DD: also everyone is calling it gross so probably i would not like it
AM: Do whatever you want with them. but here. Listen. Just listen all of you. Let me...give you this charitable donation of these chips.
AM: I get them off my hand you get chips for free everyone wins.
SA: no.
ID: i'm gonna go ahead and pass.
II: Haha
II: In truth so must I, for I'm not even sure I would be there to pick them up.
II: I travel too much.
AM: Sure thing sweet cheeks. Anyone else? I have no qualms on tossing them I really don't but Halvea said I can't toss the box here at the office so I'm just sitting on it now.
II: They'd sit in my hive and my lusus would probably get into them.
II: Or Cyan, which would be terrible.
II: ...you know Halvea?
II: Or rather. Is that a tealblood Halvea?
AM: Honey I more than know her. She's my boss!
II: Oh. Interesting.
II: Are you a legislacerator too then?
AM: Oh god no babe.
AM: I'm the secretary.
II: Ah, I see.
II: I have met one of her neophytes, so I wasn't sure.
ID: =:???? the fuck is halvea.
AM: Her secretary. I'm not up and giving this skill of management to anyone.
AM: By the way.
II: She is a very enthusiastic tealblood legislacerator!
SA: Oh, halvea is.
SA: IJ.
AS: I believe.
SA: ignore that.
II: And yes, she goes by IJ.
ID: oh. that one.
AM: Yes correct again babes!
II: ...though, I do find it interesting she keeps a _purple_ secretary.
ID: i mean probably makes her feel fancy?
AM: Speaking of one second. Just sit tight I got some papers to give her. they came in. I hate them and honestly COULD and SHOULD shred them they're useless but she wants ALL her paper work apparently.
AM: BRB babes
II: Didn't you want to pursue a different career, AM?
SA: we're all booth babes now.
ID: you gotta wear the vent pants pris. =:P
DD: ooooh omg ive always wanted to be a booth babe
DD: just for a little while you know
DD: it seems fun!!
ID: i was a booth babe for a day.
DD: and you get to wear pretty clothes
DD: omg
DD: omg omg
DD: what did you wear??? was it fun??
SA: the day i wear the vent pants is the day i am lowered into my grave.
ID: i wore a hooker outfit and threw knives.
DD: vent pants are fun because they are really silly!
DD: and oh my goodness that is one terrifying professional model look
DD: what were you selling?
DD: did you stab anybody??
II: I'm assuming they did, given the fight.
ID: nah it was a contest on accuracy.
II: Oh, haha
II: Silly me
ID: the fighting came later!
AM: Alright honies I'm back. Uhg. And indrid sweety, listen. I do. I AM. I'm going to be the next rock n roll star just you see I've got some nice TUNES coming up honest.
SA: I almost won.
SA: I would like everyone to know this.
SA: since Hadean seem sto gloss over it was a contest with me in it.

II: ...it might be best if you stopped while you're ahead, Dazzle.
II: It is good to have apologized but usually less than preferable to ah, draw out the topic.

II: Oh, ah -

AM: Listen, sweethearts lets not drag on the illfeelings-- AM: Co-workers?
AM: Also I'm NOT harassing.
ID: i felt pretty harrassed at the amount of nicknames being spewn out around here.

II: I greatly enjoy a nice caramel frappucino.
SA: w ... what.
ID: bud as in buddy there uh.
ID: ij.
AM: Yes. I get that Halvea but again I must state it's not a PLANT it's a WORD.
IJ: Bu> is usually refering to a piece of the marijuana plant, that woul> then be groun> up an> smoke> in what is calle> a 'joint'.
SA: are you this pedantic about all words?
IJ: He'll be fine. I pay him by the hour.
SA: flower buds...
IJ: Someone has to keep the reins in check here.
ID: well we are allll fine upstanding citizens around here.
IJ: The excessive number of Ls in that sentence lea>s me to believe that you are full of shit, mister.
ID: really though if you can restrict him from being able to type honey somehow.
II: Oh, I'm sure ID is a stellar example of Imperial citizenship.
IJ: >oesn't make him any less full of shit.
II: Really? I've found him quite enjoyable.
ID: i can be full of shit and a stellar citizen!
ID: isn't life funny.
IJ: Either way, I can't restrict anyone from typing anything, but I can give him a socially acceptable punishment for >oing so in the future.
SA: public humiliation?
IJ: Either way, I can't restrict anyone from typing anything, but I can give him a socially acceptable punishment for >oing so in the future.
IJ: Not quite that, no.
ID: ....no more coffee breaks?
II: Gracious, Halvea. So what if the boy is a bit overenergetic? What are you going to do to him?
SA: remove his snapchat filters.
II: Ha
IJ: I am not going to give him a punishment too cruel to fit the crime we are talking about here, In>ri>
IJ: I'> mess with his computer if it wasn't a work computer.
ID: i say no breaks. gotta make up the time he spent dawdling on here. =:P
ID: he did a loooot of dawdling.
IJ: >espite his outwar> nature, Ashley usually >aw>les becuase he gets his work >one quickly. If not a bit haphazar>ly.
SA: so they are secretly very intelligent.
IJ: He's not incompetant, yes.
ID: just bad at listening to boundaries.
II: I hardly imagine you'd employ him if he was.
II: He _does_ seem like he could use a bit of advice on how to interact with strangers.
IJ: Perhaps if he keeps this up, I'll have him have to work un>er Sappho for a >ay. Make him run his legs instea> of his mouth.
II: Haha, that hardly seems a punishment to me, but she is certainly enthusiastic and would keep him on his toes.
ID: yeah never leave him alone with a valuable witness, he'd ruin 'em.
ID: unless he's part of the intimidation tactics i guess.
IJ: Maybe have him work in the gym for a few hours, then? Man>atory gym room time.
ID: never a bad idea to have him able to run when he needs to!
AM: Okay hey. I brought my phone to the shop and they messed up my order, bummer right? But listen so they're remaking it and Halvea sweety. They have a special. A SPECIAL. Don't hate me now but, look listen everyone EVERYONE will back me up on this. It's a limited edition Lestat special a Lestat's whatever who cares. Not super sure what it's about but it sounded NEW and EXCITING. SO I got it for you. There all is forgiven honey.

SA: it never ends.
SA: does it
II: Gracious, and we already got into such a discussion about them
II: Haha
IJ: Can you tell me that in Alternian English, please.
II: Apparently in the world of marketing it does not.
ID: it probably means you'll be getting a jade and/or rainbow colored drink.
IJ: ... I sai> I like my coffee as black as asphalt.
AM: Listen. I know. but. Here are you following me?
AM: Follow this idea. I get you that...BUT

II: Ah yes. Extremely important.
AM: You have to plan ahead for this sort of work to be a proper secretary. And no theirs is a COLD beverage why would I ever put that in a thermos the whipped creme would get SLUDGY FAST.
AM: I strictly ordered theirs to come after mine which had to be remade.
ID: psst ind is yours a cold drink.
II: What if I wanted a thermos regardless.
II: What if I just love thermoses that much.
ID: some of us love sludgy cream!
AM: It should be it's a decent degreed day, and a nice ice drink perks on up at this hour-- I really would've appreciated that before hand Indrid. NOTED then. Babe really. Tragically sorry about that one won't happen again .

ID: you probably look hideous in it.
RR: It's a figure of speech doll
RR: I ain't talking literal bread
AM: I look GREAT actually. I'm not feeling the teal vibe honey but if I put a good neutral in with it and a pair of my valentino slacks it really comes together babe.

AM: Hadsy babe I throw out last seasons clothes every season. Don't you I mean it's...pretty natural?
AM: They get too worn and really it's just not worth keeping babe.
ID: uh-huh. people throw them out and you dig through their dumpster and pull them out and wear them.
II: I believe I may have just startled another passenger with my laughter.
ID: it's okay ashy babe, we all know now.
II: How many lowbloods have you met, Ashley.
AM: Hadean I don't think you can read well Babe I'm concerned. How are we gonna keep our lunch date now if you can't read the address honey???
AM: Uh
AM: Should I be keeping count?
AM: They're all pretty low on the rung usually, overly abundant really. It's a little hard to count them all.
II: ...
AM: Now TALKING to one that's a little fewer so I guess these two are the most recent babe.
II: ...oh _dear_
SA: we all know what now?
RR: Whoooa there it's getting pretty heavy on the wine in here RR: Don't know how we're handling this berry platter
ID: ahahahah yep i'm gonna break ashy's nose for him.
SA: 🖤?
RR: Hey hey RR: Nobody gets a fight here unless I get to add live commentary on the show
II: I shall politely look in the other direction.
ID: he can have an overabundance of blood clogging his nose holes.
RR: I'm picturing it now RR: Special tonight: The rustbucket and the secretary go to war RR: It's a battle of the wits! RR: Who'l be the top dog tonight? RR: Tune in to find out!
SA: or just 🥊
AM: My nose? Hadean sweety I dont think you can afford the bill! Besides I'd rather you didn't honey I've got great symmetrical features as is I need to upkeepthat.
ID: nikola did you even comment on my last fight.
RR: Oh wait that was you wasn't it

AM: Oh the real honey comb is back. Hi darling.
RR: Uh RR: So how IS your arm doing?
SA: I'm back and my attempts a code communication are being ignored
ID: i already got ii's blessing.
SA: I even though this one through
ID: 🥊
RR: I missed some of it because I was kind of distracted helping keep Lokkic's friends from black killing each other so
SA: 👌
AM: that's not physically possible honey but listen I wouldn't really recommend that. Maybe instead we could listen to tunes sweetie? I'm GREAT at the guitar.
RR: Hey, there's always room for music on the show
SA: oh no. Once you start a fight with Hadean there is no escape.
ID: i'm breaking your nose.
SA: only confrontation and pain.
ID: it's happening.
II: I'm afraid the fight must be carried out
II: Binding legal contract
AM: No.
ID: scared?
AM: Absolutely not you'll hear from Halvea about that contract!
ID: poor little purple.
II: Oh, I'm sure she wouldn't mind me borrowing you for a little demonstration in law.
ID: oh! ij said there's no case ii.
AM: Hadsy I'll show you how little I'm NOT.
AM: Wait what
ID: i was supposed to pass the message on.
SA: Hadsy... wow.
SA: 😂
AM: No, no you're wrong. Haddy honey it's fine. You misheard.
ID: no i did not.
ID: straight from the teal lips to my ear.
II: Gracious, are you disgracing Hadean's trustworthiness?
AM: Horrendous. Just Horrendous. Lies.
II: I am abashed.
ID: that'll earn him another nose hit.
SA; Ashley just cease speaking and accept your fate.
AM: I wanted a simple lunch date now this. Saddening. really I thought we could have a good business talk. Maybe get you a tie and a REAL artisan meal, look at your portfolio but wow. Bodily Threat. Awful.
AM: Prisma sweetheart I can't.
AM: In all good consciousness.
ID: i'll steal your tie when i'm done beating you up. it's fine.
ID: i mean ii is this the backbone your company wants to show?
II: What are you going to _do_ with that tie, Hadean
II: Haha, Halvea and I don't work for the same firm
SA: wear it with Emerel shirt presumably
II: I work for Stanse Advoco, not her.
SA: there nothing else to wear it with
ID: he won't accept a fight from a rusty. i think his boss should know his cowardice.
II: I know her through one of her acolytes, Sappho Wilcox.
AM: M...My tie?
II: It _is_ somewhat unbecoming of a purple to not take a challenge.
ID: it surreee is!
SA: Ashley if you pay me a suitable amount I'll fight Hadean for you as your champion
AM: It is real silk from the Prada line --And I never said no to a challenge just questioning the sanity of it!
IJ: >on't kill my accountant, please.
AM: Oh honey that's real cute but I don't quite swing to that tune. I dont need a cronie.
II: Oh, we would never dream of it.
ID: i won't kill him!
II: Merely challenge his skills a little.
ID: just break his nose!
SA: I think the consensus is he's doing it himself
RR: Hey ash stop by my hive sometime if you're bringing coffee RR: It ain't nothing fancy but it's guaranteed you won't get beat up there
RR: Honestly it might be your best hiding place
SA: I'm not a cronie
IJ: I was able to get him for cheap, I >on't want to sen> him in for repairs.
SA: well now you're on my shitlist too, Ashley
AM: I might take you up on that, we need to get you properly suited up. I don't hide tho bud. AM: I am not cheap Halvea.
ID: a broken nose wouldn't affect his performance.
II: Hahaha, oh dear
ID: hahhh. cheap!
RR: Ohhhh baby now you're on the shitlist RR: That's some real serious business right there
AM: I didn't even do anything babe! Hads is stealing MY tie for devious deeds babe
II: Whatever did a purpleblood do to come for cheap?
AM: Listen. Listen. It's not cheap pay.
ID: i challenged him to a fight and he's backing out. so probably his cowardice affects his pricing.
SA: 😂
AM: I'm NOT backing out hadsy Honey.
IJ: He looked like he just got out of schoolfee>ing so I thought it woul> be nice to give him a job.
II: Oh, that was very kind of you, Halvea.
ID: great ashy! i'll get to teach you a lesson in lowblood relations!

AM: Toodles Nikola.

SA: 😰😰😰
ID: i learned not to fight in a ring where you have to play by the rules.
ID: this is an alleyway fight!

AM: You were so excited a second ago? Wanting a refund now babe? Bad choice honey a lot of returns aren't honored anymore. Bad business practice.

EB: Xh believe me EB: If i feel like getting a refund EB: Ill get my refund EB: And yxu wxnt ever see it cxming ;)
SA: it doesn't matter how sturdy you are, we know that. Save your battles for when they matter. Not some chai drinking nobody secretary.
EB: Well cxnsidering i appear tx have walked intx a chat full xf angry kids
SA: at least apply a logical value to it
ID: chai drinking nobodies are fun to fight.
ID: that's my logic?
SA: youve never fought one

AM: There you go had honey.
SA; he's smarter than this, though
SA: and he knows it I'm sure
AM: is he honeycomb?
AM: He called me a coward for not wanting to ruin my slacks and goated me on. I think he wants a concernt.

EB: Whx wants pxpcxrn
SA: I know it's what you do presumably all the time. I've known you long enough to use deductive reasoning
EB: Because i think we need sxme pxpcxrn in here

SA: I cannot rest knowing there is something I must do.
ID: all you have to do it go to bed pris.
SA: and I don't know what will happen if I leave. He is determined to keep escalating this despite getting what he wants.
AM: I hope you're ready to get rocked haddy honey.
AM: Haha
AM: Man this is the best business day I've had in ages babe, listen you're a fun toy I like this.

II: Oh, I understand. It's all new and exciting.
SA: I still don't approve.
SA: but I trust him to be careful and less reckless than last time. 😰
ID: see? allll fine.

II: This is not how any good pitchrom starts.
ID: i'm not desperate.
II: Ha

AM: Oh babe don't go planning my future for me. I haven't finished getting together everything for Halveas fiscal quarter even yet.
II: I can see how that might strain you.
SA: actually Ashley I am a clairvoyant.
SA: I can read your future.
II: Does his nose break.
SA: very easily, actually.
II: I ask out of only morbid curiosity.
AM: Haddy you better dress nice babe.
AM: It's bad to show up to a meeting in business casual.
AM: Otherwise I'm going back to work.
SA: 🤷♀️
ID: oh i'll have something special for you~
SA: you don't have anything nice to wear.
SA: at all

AM: ❓

SA: ...
AM: !! Exciting honey. I'm just TICKLED....well not pink that's not my hue and really babe listen, a bad expression. Blase even. i hate it. So here instead I'm just babe, i AM bursting in blackberry hues. Eh, we'll workshop it honey we'll get the best team on the job for that one. Don't forget make up haddy. An a good slick back hairstyle is good.
ID: i have ass-length hair.
SA: you're tacky and I hate you
AM: That isn't professional.
AM: I can trim it while we duel babe.
AM: Or after ! I can take you to my favourite new burlesque barber shop.
AM: It's very new, very popular.
AM: Great ratings online.
ID: my hair is prof af.
AM: Is it for pulling babe? because that's what that comes across as in a fight, plan smarter honey I don't want this to be easy.
SA: no hair pulling.
SA: at this point I may as well say "no" every minute it would More or less suffice the entire conversation. It isn't going to change for the next hour.
SA: you aren't going to say anything new. Or unique.
SA: I don't even have to look at my phone...
ID: hahhh. you can try to grab it, but it just gives me more openings to break your nose.
AM: Haddy sweetheart want to make this private? Coordinate a bit babe. Less confusion the better.
ID: aww pris intimidating you? alright honeygrub, we can go where the big bad pris can't snark at you~
AM: Sweetheart he's just not with this company's vibe is all.
SA: no
AM: Bringing the vibes down.
AM: Like that.
SA: and you're ruining my evening but we can't all get what we want.
II: Personally I think Prisma has an applaudable amount of sense, but I am merely a bystander here.
SA: I appreciate this.
II: I do my best.
SA: Hadean don't leave this chat
SA: don't do it
AM: Indrid what happened to good old fashioned caste solidarity babe?
SA: it quits existing when you're an insufferable prick.
SA; even your castemates are embarrassed by you
II: I believe I can be quite capable of supporting my caste and others at the same time.
II: I am talented.
ID: pris it's fiiine. i'm not going anywhere tonight.
AM: I know you're talented honey. I won't argue that of course. Why would I? I have no reason to.
ID: even if i did i'd never reach the city to fight him tonight anyways!
SA: I meant verbally in a private chat but that as well
AM: I just want a smidge of back up maybe, sweetheart.
ID: indrid do you want any of my punches to be dedicated to how many times he's called you annoying nicknames?
SA: i feel as if indrid has wisely washed their hands of this
II: I've heard far worse, really. _Much_ more embarrassing. I don't mind.
ID: well imagine how sad they'll sound with his snout broke!
AM: 😃
ID: ps make sure that everyone at the firms know he got it broke by a maroon would you?
AM: I wouldn't.
AM: I'll say I tripped babe.
ID: i was talking to ind.
AM: I'm rather beanpole-ish it's believeable.
ID: not you ashy~
II: Well, Ashley, I do suppose it _is_ my place to assure you that I will think no less of you if you lose.
SA: he's not even going to acknowledge the fight, why bother.
ID: shocker, the world does not revolve around you~
AM: Oh there's no losers here sweetheart I'll assure you of that.
II: Oh?
II: Interesting.
AM: Indeed right?
ID: he'll acknowledge it to himself every night pris.
II: I confess you _have_ piqued my curiosity.
SA: impossible you know they have insurmountable disbelief
SA: Hadean you should rest. You have to heal.
ID: ...pris. you can't disbelieve a broken snout.
ID: i'm up to speed heal pris.
AM: I'm glad to hear that Indrid I'll leave your wit to fill in the blanks of what I mean however honey.
II: A man of mystery, hm?
ID: a man of shitty fashion sense and narcissism.
ID: ftfy.
SA has sent IMG_049.png. It is him, making the saddest harp seal eyes imaginable. For him, at least.
AM: I can't lay everything out on the table yet, honey. Like I said trump cards!
AM: What is this.
AM: Babe is this you?
ID: priissssss.
II: Oh, well, I suppose that's fair.
SA: Hadean.
ID: i didn't even know your face could make that. face.
II: I _do_ expect grand things now, though.
AM: As you always should!
SA: what do you mean is it me?
II: Gracious, you DO look upset, Prisma.
AM: It's uncomfortable.
SA: it can if I focus extremely hard. But only voluntarily.
II: Should I? That sounds exhausting. Whatever would I do if I were constantly waiting for something momentous to occur.
SA: my natural expressions are minute and subtle. I do not respond to emotional stimuli facially.
II: I would constantly be anticipating the next thing. Eventually I would become numb to it all.
AM: Is it picture sharing hour now honies?
II: It was earlier actually.
AM: Darn i was out getting coffee.
AM: Ah well.
II: I feel I shouldn't recycle the selfie I used before, and I look too tired right now to take a good one.
AM: Another surprise for Haddy I guess?
AM: indrid please we both know that's a lie but do as you want babe.
AM: I could also bring you concealer.
II: Haha, aren't you a flatterer.
AM: And makeup and some eye cream and a cucumber mask?
ID: pshhh you'll get to look at my face when i'm beating yours in.
II: That does sound nice.
II: But I'm on a train right now.
AM: Bummer honey.
SA: actually they won't be able to as the eyes close on reflex to protect themselves
AM: You're just so sure of yourself that you'll get the first hit huh babe?
AM: It's cute really.
SA: Ashley if your ego were any bigger I am certain your own reflection would murder you
ID: ahahahahah.
AM: Or something else babe but I'm at work and I feel Halvea has a 3rd sense for everything I do.
ID: i'll get in the hits that count, don't worry~
SA: how is this still entertaining for you both
SA: how are you not bored
SA: you have what you want. Shouldn't that be the end of it.
SA: until the due time
AM: Are you jealous prisma honey?
SA: I don't feel jealousy.
AM: edgy...
SA: what part of lobotomizes fails to reach your mind.
AM: you should market that I hear that's really selling now
SA: I am not edgy.
AM: I didn't take note so i forgot.
SA: it's not an act
SA: it's a reality
AM: mmmhm
II: You _do_ know lobotomization's effects, don't you, Ashley?
AM: I mostly want to know what haddy's wearing so I don't clash.
AM: So I don't care at the moment it's not a priority I'll pull up a search later though.
SA: you're an absolute idiot
SA: but yes! I am edgy
II: Well, it does take some reading time to devote, that's true. I'm sure your work is important.
ID: don't worry, i'll swear something your shitty purple blood goes well with!
SA: everything i do is to recklessly gain the attention to others
SA: and then push them away to show how
SA: cool and impressive I am
AM: It's very Halvea has a lot of paper's to go through daily and trolls to deal with.
AM: I take pride in this work Indrid honey.
AM: I'll wear something that doesn't show blood easily then. Couldn't you have been a higher hue haddy babe? Then I wouldn't have to look into a synthetic blend...
II: Well, that's good. If you didn't that'd be unfortunate. Every firm troll should be enthusiastic about their duties.
II: If not, why be here?
AM: Precisley, Indrid.
ID: maroon is the best. so. no.
II: Well, you could always complain to the mother grub, Ashley.
AM: Or at least pretend for gods sake the rest of us don't want that negativity around it gives fine lines to the face.
AM: I'd rather not a brood mother isn't on my list of sights to see.
SA: go to bed before you do get wrinkles
ID: i'll give them more to worry about than wrinkles.
SA: what is it you say to me
SA: something
SA: hush up
AM: Say my name sometime Haddy.
AM: This is beginning to feel one sided.
ID: pshhh. ashy sweety buns, better~?
ID: you just love the sound of your own fucking name.
SA: why don't I get cute pet names
SA: solve that one for me
AM: !!
ID: because they're mocking names pris.
SA: I don't believe he thinks that
SA: I wish I had the monkey to hold
SA: that might be vaguely nice
AM: i think whatever I want to think babe.
AM: Keep that up though Haddy and maybe I'll let you actually GET a punch in.
ID: uh-huh. talk's cheap ashy boo.
ID: cheap like your shoes.
AM: Do you even wear shoes Haddy...
SA: dumpster diving. Sachs fifth
ID: of course i do~ i'm not kicking your ass bare, that's just asking for diseases~
AM: Mine are LV's babe, the only shade of red I wear besides your hue come a week from now honey.
SA: wrong shade of red
SA: you'll ruin them.
AM: Mmmm mMmmm HMMM
ID: it's cute that you think you'll bloody me~
SA: Hadean.
AM: Facts. Facts is the right word Haddy.
SA: that would make that sentence grammatically incorrect.
SA: you are stupid, aren't you.
SA: Hadean sleep
SA: so I can sleep too
AM: Shut.
ID: facts is i'm gonna wreck you.
SA: bed
AM: yep I'm satisfied bed it is. Goodlight all

SA; it will be weird
II: Prepare well, Ashley.
ID: nothing compared to what you'll get~
AM: Will do indrid.
ID: get wrekt.
II: Ah, but don't you want him to be fresh for your fight?
II: All dewy-eyed and clean-faced?
AM: Regardles I'm going to be he's crippled and apparently hive grounded so it's fine.
iD: get wrekt in your dreams of me.
SA: bed
AM: hohohoo
ID: fiiine!
SA: be quiet ashy
AM: Good light this time, Haddy. But not truly.
II: I don't think that will do anything, Prisma. But good light, all.
AM: I dont take orders from you I'm not on your pay roll prisma.
ID: g'light ashy, try to keep up with work tomorrow for once!
II: A fact for which I am sure we all are grateful.
SA: you seem to follow hadeans just fine though
SA: 🙃
AM: Quiet you.
ID: i know how to unlock purple bitch mode.
AM: Uhg.
II: You two keep telling each other that like you think it will work.

SA: this is truly what pitch fights are made of
SA: screaming incoherently until you get your way
SA: go the fuck you sleep you petulant child
ID: i hope you're exhausted tomorrow and you can't work and you get fired.
SA: you too Hadean
II: How about you all get off or I start clogging the chat with legal code, which will put everyone to sleep anyway.
SA; it wouldn't work on me
II: Everyone except Prisma
SA: I'm already awake again
AM: I already rear it all day Indrid
AM: *read
II: Sigh.
II: There goes my usually foolproof threat.
II: What is a woman to do.
ID: i'll power through it out of pure fucking spite.
AM: Put haddy and Prisma to sleep first then I'll rest.
II: Well, I suppose it's a contest to see who can stay up the longest then.
SA. An infant
II: I hope you're all ready to party.
AM: VERY WELL
SA: are you proud of yourself, Ashy?
SA: this is what you've reduced your caste to
AM: When I'm last troll standing yes babe
SA: childish bickering over who has the last laugh
ID: you'll be the first one to fall you mean.
SA: honestly pathetic
SA: Hadean go rest

SA: shh
AM: very well indrid
II: Good light!
ID: glght.
AM: lig
ID: fucyo.
SA: this is going to be a pitch thing. I feel it in my bones
VD: 😮 see, when my viewers told me there was a new chat o=
VD: 😮 i was hoping it was a live one! o= VD: 😮 or at least there'd be a little spark of life! but this is just so awfully dead o=
VD: 😮 dead BORING o=
VD: 😮 ... o= VD: 😮 i claim this chat in the name of CHANNEL 87! 😮 => u <=
VD: 😮 oh, what the FUCK o= VD: 😮 it's ruining my quirk! o=
SA: you can't claim it.
ID: ahahah wooowww.
VD: 😮 well, gosh, i guess not if it's got people in it! o:
VD: o: pretend you didn't see that! we're having some TECHNICAL QUIRK DIFFICULTIES right now 😮
VD: o= ugh!!! 😮
II: Haha, oh my
II: Well, I'm not quite _here_ since I'm technically at a lecture, but this speaker is dreadfully boring
II: You would think someone who specialized in colonization and diplomacy law would be a fascinating sort of person!
DD: omgggggggggggggg i would be okay with vd claiming this chatroom!!! DD: it would make it about fifty times cooler than before!!! i mean not that its not cool now just that shes definitely cooler and it would be an improvement
II: But they're hideously dull.
ID: nah ii, that sounds hella boring.
DD: i am seconding id!
SA: just quit using the colon with the o.
II: I was hoping they would have interesting stories about aliens, or exploration!
SA: you will look far less suprised.
II: All they have done is drone about minor policy details, which are relevant I suppose but nothing I could not simply read about myself.
DD: well if they are boring details i suspect they figured you wouldnt be especially inclined to read about them yourself so they should say them to you instead so you cant escape!
DD: unless you escape by ignoring them and chatting online instead i suppose but there is no helping some circumstances
II: I always read my briefings.
II: No matter how dull.
II: But going to a lecture is different, I expect some sort of personal flair.
DD: im sure you do but does everyone
DD: its a lecture isnt it i dont suppose youre the only one in there
VD: gosh, sa, that's about what i'm ready to do. VD: it's a shame! that quirk is my THING. VD: but oh well! VD: gotta adapt to the medium!
ID: some trolls just love the sound of their own voice. doesn't mean they're interesting.
SA: 😮
DD: nooooooooo vd 😢
II: Haha, hardly. I am mostly surrounded by teals and a few bluebloods.
SA: i suppose there is no beating it.
DD: rip the quirk
II: But none of them look particularly thrilled either, except those who I suspect are trying to curry favor.
II: And they look rather glassy.
ID: big fish little pond huh ii?
VD: ii, this may be a pretty wild suggestion, so hold onto your pants, but. VD: have you thought about escaping out the window?
SA: some trolls simply sound monotonous but they say very important things.
SA: like me
SA: full stop.
ID: hahaha yeah ii, just dive out the fucking window.
II: Sadly there are no windows in this conference room.
II: Otherwise it would have occurred to me.
VD: and don't cry, dd! the quirk SURVIVES. online, that is! on my stream. VD: winky face!
SA: that is. not at all subtle.
DD: well then take a vent DD: or a ceiling panel!
SA: are you streaming this chat?
ID: fake your death ii. it's the only way.
VD: aww. crawl out under the tables to freedom!
II: I...strongly doubt I would fit through one of those.
II: Or manage to go under the tables, haha.
II: ...though faking my death _is_ sounding appealing.
II: Or at least faking being unconscious.
ID: faking your death is fool-proof.
DD: and ahaha omg DD: im sorry! DD: i was trying not to make it weird but yes oh dear i love your stream very much and i would just like to say that im very pleased that STARship helps make it possible!!
VD: what? no! chats are boring! VD: technically, i might be streaming just a LITTLE. VD: but don't worry, this is not exactly the sort of hard-hitting content that gets my viewers going!
SA: I.
VD: unless ii fakes their death!
ID: you either succeed or they find out you're faking and cull you for realsies.
SA: well, I'm done here for an hour or so.
II: Well if I do, I shall be sure to film it for you.
II: I am nothing if not considerate.
VD: awww. you're a real doll!
II: Haha
DD: ... also maybe if youre ever interested in upgrading well be releasing a new system for synthetic neural synapse that helps streamline wetware-hardware connection and im sure you dont ever have lag but if you do i mean
II: Oh, are you a tech expert, DD?
II: How charming!
DD: i!!! DD: kind of!!
DD: you could say that!
DD: STARship is my company!!
DD: co-company??
VD: ... as is dd! VD: STARSHIP is the big hit that makes it all possible, it is true. VD: why, without them, where would we be? filming with cameras, like a bunch of cocoon-wetting pupas? =:B VD: nah!
VD: oh!
ID: oh god is this just a chat of highblood nerds now.
II: Yes, we have invaded
II: Terribly sorry
DD: well its not when youre here!
DD: 😄
VD: yes, exactly! VD: you are saving us all, id, you valiant hero, you.
DD: wait that sounded like i dont want you here and that is the opposite of what i intended
DD: yes what vd said
ID: uh-huh. totes got my feels injured by that declaration dd, but i guess you patched them.
II: Hahaha
DD: though really its not as though ive gone on at particular length about my work at anybody as of yet i mean i would like to think i am more considerate than that to both those unfamiliar with my jargon and also to my patent legislacerators
II: You don't deal with lowbloods much, do you, DD?
II: Many of the ones I know are not exactly fragile
ID: no ii, i'm suuuppperrrr fragile.
II: Hah!
ID: got a broke ass arm to prove it. =:'(
II: And I'm the governor of Provenance.
DD: i mean not really aside from the lovely members of station 11 that are helping me test my latest prototypes but also i didnt say that because he is a lowblood i said it because i was afraid i hurt his feelings
DD: though there are many physiological and psychic differences between highbloods and lowbloods it is a common misconception that they extend to the psychological! DD: for the most part anyways i mean there are some differences but
VD: i would love to take you up on your sweet offer, dd - mx dd - but i am just not sure i need it! VD: my visual hookup is state of the line. top of the rack! VD: and besides, i think i would miss all of my modifications. =:B can't get THOSE storebought!
DD: what i am saying is that i think that would have been a jerk thing to say to anybody!
DD: if i had meant it the wrong way i mean
ID: what i'm getting from this is that dd is a jerk.
DD: and oh of course i mean i know it is state of the line i am afraid i just got overexcited and-
DD: no i am not!!
II: Ah, I think I would call them...inexperienced?
DD: at least i am not trying to be 😦
II: In some social aspects.
ID: accidentally a jerk.
II: I don't think you are, DD.
DD: what did i do that was jerkish?
VD: hahaha. oh, gosh.
II: It's just plain you haven't dealt with lower castes much.
VD: y'all talk really fast, don't you?
ID: yeah we're hella touchy about you highbloods bringing up our differences. =:'(
DD: i have been told i talk very quickly and at great length my apologies if it is excessive
II: Hahaha
ID: and also apparently being used as guinea pigs for you.
II: Well, that is standard protocol I'm afraid.
VD: no, no, it is positively charming! VD: i just have got to stretch out all of my conversational muscles to keep up!
DD: and really?? DD: that has not been entirely my experience but also workplace sensitivity said that its good not to say all lowbloods are touchy or not touchy about everything in general because that is a bit of a stereotype regardless of which way you go!
DD: and oh dear now i am flustered
DD: thank you though!!!!
DD: that is very flattering
DD: and what do you mean guinea pigs?
DD: i do not eat lowbloods
VD: i.
ID: ....man.
II: ...do you eat guinea pigs, then?
ID: i mean, good on not fucking eating us.
ID: guinea pigs as in making us test your shit.
DD: i mean i have recently had pork yes!!
II: That...oh dear
II: That's not a guinea pig
DD: oh
DD: um!
II: That's just a regular oinkbeast.
ID: ahahah woowwww.
II: Guinea pigs are small and adorable and not really good for meat.
VD: oh, ii, don't drag the poor thing! VD: who hasn't looked at a little rodent and gone: well, shoot! that'd be delicious on a platter!
II: ...myself?
II: I say that mostly because they aren't really big enough to be a proper meal.
DD: i have to admit i am not certain what is common fare for eating when it comes to the landdwelling castes
ID: i mean where you find one guinea pig you'll find more.
DD: i have spent most of my time here thus far lamenting the profound lack of fish!!
ID: they travel together.
DD: i tried to get some sushi but i think the crab was fake
II: Gracious, DD, you almost make me want to take you for dinner somewhere, though surely that'd interfere with your work.
VD: oh, i don't know about that! VD: i got in a hive once that had a guinea pig just about the size of a house! VD: mean little critter, too. it nearly took a chunk out of my poor leg.
ID: 'got in a hive' sounds ominous af.
VD: i think everyone'd be better off if dd had gone and eaten that one. 😮 u o=
VD: oh, fiddlesticks.
DD: no thats fine i can work at any time but its not any time that i have the opportunity to make a new friend! DD: as long as you dont feed my guinea pig i suppose x))
II: Haha, I would never. Have you heard of Civitrecce, DD?
DD: oh no whats wrong???
DD: and no ii i am afraid i have not but i am also afraid i have not heard of most places that are not located underwater or in orbit!
VD: haha, it is only ominous if you want it ominous, id. VD: which is to say, i'd explain, but i'd hate to break the sense of suspense you're building here!
DD: except troll chicago but that was in a musical
DD: i am very in suspense!!
ID: i mean i'm just imagining you break in to hives for funsies.
II: Fair enough! It's my home city, though I am rarely there. It boasts many fine restaurants, including those tailored to the elite, so they have fine seafood.
VD: getting warmer, id! =0 u 0=
II: It also has a spaceport and land travel hub, so it has plenty of trains heading there.
VD: yessss, success!
DD: omg!!

DD: what did you do vd??
II: Oh, of course they do.
ID: hahah woow what did you expect being in the desert though dd?
II: ...I'm sorry, break into hives?
VD: 0= i got my quirk working again! =0 VD: 0= look at this, it is just like in the vids. =0
ID: text it vd breaks in to hives to murder for funsies.
DD: omggggggg i love it!
DD: and she doesnt MURDER anyone!!
DD: and i dont know ive never been to a desert!
VD: 0= what nooooo. 0= VD: 0= anyone can murder people! that's not impressive at all! =0
DD: expected it to be like the tropics!!
VD: 0= no one's going to watch that! =0
ID: so what do you do then.
DD: only the coolest stunts ever!!
II: Do you cause property damage and enter without the owners' consent.
VD: 0= hahaha, what is this, an ama? =0 VD: 0= because man, i love those. =0
ID: the fuck is an ama.
VD: 0= property damage is for wrigglers, ii! =0 VD: 0= the KEY to making it fun for the whole clade is breaking in without breaking anything, taking some stuff, and leaving before anyone can even grab their trident! =0
VD: 0= an ask me anything! 0=
VD: 0= where people.. well, gosh, ask you anything. =0
II: I see.
ID: ...so you stream breaking in and stealing from folks.
ID: highbloods.
II: _I_ do not condone this.
ID: 🙄
VD: 0= oh, don't worry, ii, i think you're pretty swell! 0=
DD: oh come on ii its not as though it really hurts anyone and besides if they didnt want their things stolen they should have installed better security systems!
SA: you sound like the sort of person that steals the remote control batteries and watches the hive dissolve into chaos.
VD: 0= and it's - yes, exactly! =0
DD: or worse ones i suppose since part of the fun is the challenge of a good security system
II: It is still illegal.
VD: 0= to both of those! =0
SA: "it's not like it really hurts anyone" "if they didn't want their things stolen they should have installed better security systems"
ID: highbloods pris.
SA: there is so many things. wrong. with that sentence.
VD: 0= i'm helping people improve themselves through a little TLC. 0= VD: 0= and by helping them put off doing their lethal bar paperwork! =0 VD: 0= it's a hard job, but gosh, someone's gotta do it. =0
II: The kind of logic used by all sorts of criminal rubbish.
SA: help me, Hadean.
VD: 0= it's not really a crime, if you think about it! =0 VD: 0= why, you could probably even say it's a public service! =0
II: Yes it is and I find it particularly appalling that someone of your blood would do such a thing.
II: Shame on you for disgracing your caste.
ID: yeah vd you're setting a bad example for us lowbloods.
ID: ii if you ever catch me stealing it's because vd made it look cool.
II: Ha
II: _Clearly_ .
VD: 0= am i a disgrace, ii? =0 VD: 0= because 1m viewers per session says that an awful lot of people think i'm a shining example! 0=
II: This troll isn't a suitable role model for a blind grub.
ID: also quick fact is it stealing if you're looting a corpse.
VD: 0= i am not quite sure of what, though, now that i think about it. =0 VD: 0= gosh, i should do a poll. =0
II: Your viewers are likely average bored citizens - no, not technically.
VD: 0= ewww. don't touch corpses! =0
ID: great!
SA: no it's just grave defilement.
VD: 0= that's how you get hornrot, id! =0
II: I mean, to be fair, I'd consider it wasteful to not. Unless they have quadrants who would like the body or belongings back.
II: Then it would be disrespectful, but not illegal.
ID: if they're recently dead it's fineeee.
VD: 0= oh, yes. =0 VD: 0= breaking into hives is wrong, but touching dead bodies is perfectly fine. 0=
SA: i'm sorry, did you go looting corpses today?
VD: 0= ii, i think your morals are a little questionable! =0
VD: 0= i think you're setting a bad example here! =0
II: Morality isn't the problem here. It's the law.
ID: not today. but some times a troll has to find some quick cash!
ID: yeah vd.
ID: i'm immoral but i'm legal.
II: Morals don't enter it. Luckily, I really do not care what you think, since you are a criminal.
II: Moreover, a _stupid_ criminal who talks about their crimes in an Imperial server.
VD: 0= well, isn't that just a knife straight to my heart? 😢 =0
SA: please it's not as if the police will come hunt them down for blasting it in a defunct server.
SA: they are a high blood.
SA: who... actually cares.
ID: ^^^^
II: I don't care for their blood. I care for their blatant immaturity and defilement of the legal system.
II: They ought to be disciplined.
SA: as long as they're looking from a caste below them the police will turn a blind eye.
VD: 0= haha, yeah, i would not put it exactly like that, but. =0 VD: 0= close enough! =0
II: _I_ am not below them.
ID: so a firm slap on the wrist.
ID: aka what any highblood ever gets.
ID: unless they fucked with a higherblood.
II: I am two castes higher, and this is wrong.
SA: then call the police and we'll wait.
VD: =0 oh, don't worry, ii! =0 VD: =0 i said i'd never steal from your hive, because we were being downright frondly. =0 VD: =0 but let's be honest here! =0 VD: =0 i wouldn't steal from your hive because you're an awful stick in the mud, and i don't think anyone'll be quite impressed by your collection of troll twilight books! 0=
SA: 😮
VD: =0 u =
II: It's hardly that simple, as I'm sure you know, but I will certainly be filing this - haha, what. Oh that's amusing, considering I have no interest in that series and in fact recently derided it.
ID: also is attempted but not fully carried out murder a crime? just asking random questions i've always wondered with someone who knows law at hand.
SA: Hadean i am aggressively elbowing you in spirit.
II: Mm, technically, but it also depends on a lot of other legal codes.
VD: =0 it's only ever a crime if you get caught, id! =0 VD: =0 or if you stream it live, every night, at 6:00PM IST! =0
ID: i'm not murdering anyone pris, i'm just curious.
SA: "asking for a friend"
II: It varies by area and specific caste restriction, though I'm in favor of investigating as many attempted murders as possible.
ID: no, asking because i have a lot of free time on my hands to ask these questions!
SA: i hate you :l
II: Ignoring the small crimes usually leads to getting complacent toward the bigger ones.
ID: =:P
SA: 💚
ID: so chop the hand off the thief to send the murderers a warning kind of thing?
II: Pfft, how barbaric. Hardly.
ID: so like, then. what's the worst crimes a troll could commit?
II: Difficult question depending by what standards you're asking.
II: Castewise, the murder of a tyrian, though even that's a thorny issue given that the Condesce generally appreciates _fewer_ challengers, though there are exceptions for non-heir or heiress fuchsias.
VD: =0 oh, i know this one. 0= VD: =0 early culling a heiress! 0=
II: Please ignore VD, who is not a legal expert, and an idiot.
ID: shots fired.
VD: =0 so don't spear any princesses, id. 0= VD: =0 that's an awful big glitch to make. 0=
ID: i have yet to run in to any princesses but i'll keep it in mind.
II: But if we're talking more generally, destruction or alteration of Imperial property is a big one. That causes us a lot of issues every sweep. On a wider scale, sabotage of the fleet itself.
SA: oh i have.
SA: but they were already dead when I got there.
VD: =0 well, i say give ii all the attention they're so desperately craving. 0= VD: =0 after all, it'd be mean to steal their limelight! 0= VD: =0 even if they are droning like the speaker they were just complaining about. 0=
VD: =0 wow! 0= VD: =0 really? 0=
ID: oh i get elbowed over asking about murder, but you can talk about a dead princess?
II: I suppose it's easy to interpret my giving of facts as attention craving from the person who clearly rotates their life around that very thing.
SA: well, I wasn't involved in it.
ID: i wasn't involved in murder either but iiii still got elbowed.
SA: (also I was not serious)
SA: why would i casually asy.
SA: I found a dead heiress.
VD: =0 what? booooo. 0= VD: =0 i was excited to hear about a heiress! 0=
II: Even if you were, it's hardly my business. Fuchsia disputes are above my station.
ID: uh because you do cool shit?
II: Unless the culling was done by a lower caste.
SA: oh do you really think so?
VD: =0 there's a girl who streams and CLAIMS she's tyrian. 0= VD: =0 but i am pretty sure it's just make-up! 0=
ID: i mean dangerous but cool shit.
SA: claiming ones relation to a tyrian heiress is. unwise.
SA: 😊
II: There are violets who play at being tyrian, heaven knows why. Such a thing is not only dangerous but incredibly silly.
ID: no one here is destroying property or sabotaging the fleet ii.
ID: so what about crimes that you actually see?
SA: Oh, well, there goes my weekend plans.
SA: thank you, Hadean.
II: Haha
ID: =:P np, np.
VD: 0= gosh, id, way to be a regular buzzkill. 0= n =0
ID: that's me. head buzzkill.
II: Sometimes I deal with ones involving Imperial property, but often it's far more ordinary work. But I'm afraid we're breaking for snacks, so I'm going for a bit.
ID: well bye.
ID: snacks can be entertaining at least.
SA: ... breaking for snacls...
ID: highbloods need their snack breaks pris.
SA: oh. yes.
SA: silly. me.
ID: otherwise they get cranky! =:P

ID: ohhhh my god they're tattoos.
SA: 😂
SA: look at you, IJ.
ID: i did not have a guy spend twenty hours jabbing a needle in to my face to be told it's paint is2g.
II: Haha, why would they be paint? Even if they were, that's not half-paint, it wouldn't be at all suitable.
SA: wait.
SA: you actually had that tattooed onto your body.
SA: I assumed it was just. birthmarks.
ID: yes.
AA: ikrn?
SA: i.
IJ: Teal is a perfectly fine color. IJ: An> you aren't allowe> to wear excessive amount of face paint while on the job. It can get in your eyes an> can cause temporary blin>ness.

SA: but aren't they still living at heart 😢
DD: oh dear
ID: no one dies, you just have to make the choice dd.
SA: how else will they love bellae.
DD: this is a really difficult decision!!

SA: i don't believe so as many of them go off the grid when they die.
SA: they are considered legally dead.
ID: i mean. burn them to ash?
SA: and many places superstitously view rainbow drinkers as culturally unacceptable despite the Imperial stance they are not real.
DD: i dont think you can get prions from kissing someone and oh dear i dont think rainbowdrinkers are really supposed to be like corpses! DD: they are walking and talking people after all and i do not think a corpse could have hair as nice as lestat or eyes as piercing as edwards
SA: so.
SA: No it would be encouraged to murder them.
DD: this is a very troubling conversation oh my goodness
ID: welcome to this chatroom almost every night dd.
DD: !!!

ID: no damning sips for one whole night, she earned the privilege by letting me use conditioner.
SA: she can be damned for twenty minutes.
DD: well maybe you did not have very good sushi id DD: i tried the sushi out here and it was probably fake or at the very least very unfresh and really its much better when you have it properly made with fresh caught fish DD: also i just very much enjoy fish in general on account of eating it a lot of the time!
DD: and oh dear
SA: excuse me.
SA: I have excellent taste.
AA: wtf, don't i earn the prnivilege by spending an hourn brnushing yrn headfluff??
ID: that too.
AA: >:{
ID: i told you it tangles like a bitch.
ID: i t o l d you.
SA: i brought him the sushi he ate. and i am very particular about food.
DD: then maybe it is simply not to ids tastes to eat fish that wouldnt surprise me given it is probably not a part of his typical palate
ID: that's probbbsss it.
ID: i'm used to eating burgers.
ID: and squirrels.
SA: oh i've wanted to --
DD: oh ive never had a burger but ive seen them on tv a lot!
SA: ...how.
SA: I would die
ID: there's only so many things to eat in the middle of the desert pris. D:<=
SA: so fry a scorpion?

SA: leave the mammals alone...
AA: dd, go eat a burngern.
DD: !!

ID: just bite the fur off and went to t o w n.
SA: what
AA: that's the RN E A L landdwellern expernience.
AA: ain't got nothing like it.
DD: maybe i should i have been holding out in the hopes of maybe being able to get something i am used to delivered here and it has mostly resulted in me living off of lattes which is not a very good diet especially when i am attempting to be productive
SA: 🐴
DD: and they always look very good on tv though kind of weird i guess!
ID: burgers are the fucking best.
DD: theyre so..... cooked!!!

DD: well im sure fish carry diseases too but i eat those raw all the time DD: maybe it is a matter of constitution??? DD: regardless i will definitely go eat a burger once i am done with this module do you think they would make me one without cooking the meat
ID: probably not.
DD: oh dear 😦
ID: the meat will not be. fresh.
AA: n, absolutely.
SA: actually yes.
AA: just thrnow yrn weight arnound.
DD: um!!
SA: Improperly prepared sushi can bear a number of worms and viruses.
AA: be like "I want this so frnesh it's strn8 off the hoofbeast" and they'll T O T E S go w/ it.
DD: that sounds very concerning i have had the un-fresh fish here and i am not sure i want to have the un-fresh thing i havent had yet!
SA: I wouldn't do that to Hadean.
SA: I ate sushi at the same place before I brought it to him.
AA: would you have known it's full of wornms, tho.
ID: pris has the money for the fancy stuff sips.
ID: like. pris how much did you pay for your current outfit.

SA: catching that indigo.
SA: so.
ID: see?
AA: hads li - >:1

DD: what if maybe they can cook it like a little bit but not all the way do they do that
ID: man i should have let you wire me some cash. =:/
SA: that is caled a rare burger.
SA: you missed your chance, Hadean.
DD: oh!!!!!!!! DD: so those are a thing!!!

AA: fuck off, i've - oh my god.
AA: bows, like. AA: in yrn headfluff?
DD: i mean unless you are making fun of her fashion sense in general which strikes me as a little bit mean i am sure that you dress just fine!!
DD: and yes!! DD: and also i have one on my back!
DD: like at the top of my shorts its very fun to twirl with and it is nice and gauzy in the wind its almost like swimming again!
ID: sips, you twirl right?
AA: i
AA: have nevern twirnled so much in my goddamn life as i would, uh, with a bow.
AA: >:?
DD: i mean if twirling is not your thing i am sure we can find you something else its not like the style i like for myself is what everyone else likes to wear
ID: we'll find a style all your own sips!
DD: yes exactly!! 😄 ❤
AA: hahaha. >:}
AA: well, y, as long as we find one forn hads too. AA: did you know he's got fluff down to his glutes??
SA: oh, yes.
DD: yes i saw earlier when we were doing selfies and i think you said that you are the one that brushed it and i wanted to say that you did a very good job and it looked very beautiful!
ID: sips has a funner figure to shop for i think. we should focus on her.
SA: please, style it too.
DD: and yes we can find a style for everyone you and me and id and sa!!
ID: she's famous y'know.
SA: we could loop braids and put a bun in the back.
SA: very chic.
DD: and oh dear is she i am sorry i did not realize
SA: woodland chic, even.
ID: she needs famous fashion flair.
DD: omg!!! that sounds very fun maybe we could get some bright colors
DD: and something more flowy for id though i guess not so much that it is elven even though i admit that is the thought i had between the hair and the braids and such
ID: ...flowy.
SA: oh so.
DD: do you not like flowy we dont have to do flowy i just thought it would look nice with your hair maybe
SA: legolas.
SA: it's your favorite, Hadean.
ID: pris. D:<=
SA: alright, alright.
ID: i need stuff that won't get caught up on stuff.
DD: omg haha we can totally do something like that!!
ID: i do a lot of climbing and fighting and stuff. adventurer and all.
DD: oh that makes sense you are an adventurer after all!
DD: i suppose we will just have to see when it is time to pick out items what you like best and what matches with it !! ^_^
SA: Oh, look.
SA: I just had an extended case come up for this perigee.
SA: I'll be stuck in Provenance, I suppose.
SA: I'm very sorry.
ID: D:<= what a fucking shame.
AA: whaaaaaat.
AA: >:'{
DD: oh!! 😦 DD: that is very unfortunate but maybe we can do another time! DD: i hope it is not too much work for you i recall you mentioning you finished another case recently and really that seems like a lot of effort so i definitely wish you the best of luck in your endeavors!!
SA: ...yes.
SA: it was. exhausting.
AA: it's okay, dd, we can all totes go shopping next time in prnovidence.
AA: why, i hearn they've got the best burngerns on the entirne continent.
AA: full of, like, hoofbeast meat, and blood, and shit.
SA: ...
SA: you know what, I changed my mind.
SA: I won't take that case.
AA: >;0!
AA: dd, show me pics of yrn bow, btw.
DD: i do not think i want to eat anything that is full of feces!
AA: ..........
AA: ..........................
DD: and omg! DD: yes one moment!
AA: >:??
DD: and oh dear i am sorry i think i misunderstood the terminology that you used
ID: no actual shit in the burgers. don't worry.
DD: it is late and i am a little bit tired i am afraid!
ID: unless you go to the reaaallly cheap places.
DD sent thefluffiestbow.png
DD: but yes oh my goodness that all sounds very fun and we should totally visit sa!
SA: i believe that's beyond cheap, Hadean.
SA: no. No please don't.
DD: oh
DD: um!!! DD: sorry
SA: Providence is full of. Crime.
SA: and trafficking. yes.
DD: oh dear
SA: It would be very unsafe for Sipara or Hadean to visit.
DD: oh dear!!
ID: we're strong rusties, we'll manage.
SA: 🤦
DD: are you sure you are doing alright then sa i mean that sounds like a lot of trouble!
AA: aww, prni, therne's no need to get all concerned abt us. AA: we'rne strnong independent rnusties and we'll manage. besides, we'rne wornrnied abt Y O U.
AA: that city sounds RN O U G H.
SA: i am quite alright, thank you.
AA: also. okay. ngl. AA: that's a qt fucking bow.
ID: clearly we should go visit to give you some support!
ID: but if you're soooo concerned.
ID: we can go to the port city dd mentioned.
SA: Yes.
SA: yes let's do that.
DD: omg haha tyvm aa i am very happy you think so!
DD: and oh dear maybe it would be good to go to the city! DD: sa sounds like they maybe dont want to be in their city all that very much and it would be a good chance for them to get out!
SA: no, I rather like my city, thank you.
ID: i haven't seen the ocean in like. 3 sweeps.
SA: I have a view of it from my loft.
DD: i am very confused about who wants to go to what city now!
SA: it becomes less. awestriking. when you see it every day.
ID: we're going to the port city that is actually a port. and not riddled with crime.
AA: .. idk, but you ppl sornt it out. AA: i gotta get a trnuck tmrnw, and. idk. wherne the fuck you get those.
AA: so i'm gonna go figurne that out. >:?
SA: a ... dealership?
ID: do i have to sit in the middle.
DD: i suppose id did just decide where we were going so that is that!
SA: --
SA: oh that will be. good.
AA: y, lal alrneady called windowseat, soz.
ID: gdi.
ID: i hope it's roomy. =:I
AA: i do not have sa's mad buxxx, so, like, lmfao. AA: y. let's hope. >:}
AA: crnoss yrn frnonds!!
ID: my horns are gonna scrape the top of it probably. =:'(
SA: I'd offer you all a ride but I only ride a motorcycle.
DD: oh dear that sounds uncomfortable!
DD: maybe we could go to a salon and have your horns polished if they get scraped id!
SA: I think he meant he would scrape the felt off the roof.
DD: hornicures sounds nice it has been a while since i have had one after all it is a little bit embarrassing to go into a salon with broken horns
DD: and oh well they are nice regardless!
ID: what's a hornicure.
DD: !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
DD: !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
DD: its when you go to a salon with your friends and you have them sand your horns and polish them and glaze them!!
DD: and sometimes you can put on really cute designs or accessories like rings and
SA: You know.
ID: hahahah sand my horns.
DD: its really very very fun!!
SA: as we do, Hadean.
ID: i had them polished like a week ago. for the first time.
DD: !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
DD: we are definitely getting you a hornicure!!!!!!!!!
DD: you will love it!!!!!
SA: in all seriousness, I need to go lie down again. I am rather dizzy.
ID: =:I does it hurt.
SA: i will see you all later.
DD: oh dear that sounds very alarming maybe it is because you were working so much
DD: i wish you a restful sleep please be well!
ID: ...yeah... rough night. =:I bye pris.
DD: and no they do not hurt at all! DD: it sometimes pinches your cuticles a little bit if the people doing it are not very experienced but we will go somewhere good to make sure nobody hurts you! DD: i want your first hornicure to be really really nice!
ID: uh how often do they deal with floating horns.
DD: ....
ID: perhaps i am not cut out for hornicures.
DD: probably not very often!!
DD: well they could still do your other two horns!!
DD: and i am sure doing a floating horn would be even easier since it is not that big and has no cuticles!
ID: i mean my floating horn is like. bigger than sips' horns combined.
DD: well it is not bigger than both of your other horns combined and i am sure they get plenty of customers with very large horns so it should not be a concern dont worry! ^_^
ID: i mean... i guess.
DD: really you do not need to be afraid i promise they are very relaxing and soothing and make you feel really super nice!!
ID: i mean really i'm just a lil wary of your willingness to wanna do this stuff with some rusties.
ID: we're a little. out of your lane.
DD: .... oh
DD: um!
DD: what do you mean??
ID: i mean. why do you wanna hang with us.
DD: because you guys have all been very nice and introduced me to burgers and you seem like a lot of fun!
DD: and i havent gone shopping or gotten a hornicure with some friends in ages and it seems like it would be a really nice time!
DD: and also you need more than two outfits!!!
ID: i guess that's a better reason than most have.
DD: oh dear
DD: i am sorry if i have reminded you of bad past experiences i promise i am just looking to make some new friends and you guys have seemed very friendly so far
ID: it's fine, a rust just has to be a lil wary.
ID: i mean. we're the same shade as the trolls you probably have testing your stuff. whatever that is.
DD: i understand!!! DD: at least i think i do??? DD: um! DD: i do not want to say the wrong thing!
DD: and actually there are mostly yellowbloods in the facility though there are some brown and maroonbloods around and some olives and there is even one cerulean psychic roaming around!!! DD: or maybe two DD: um i admittedly cannot really tell if there is one or just two that look very similar it has been very confusing
ID: pfff you must mean gliese.
ID: and... not-gliese.
DD: oh does that mean there are two??
DD: that is a relief to know i was beginning to think that i was going to talk about them at one point and get it wrong
ID: yeah there's two, dw.
ID: but yeah. facility stuff can make some of us rusties a little wary.
DD: well if it makes you feel any better i am not working for them they have just volunteered to allow me to offer to their participants who would like to try out some of my new prototypes that are in the troll trials stage!
DD: they are all very safe and such the only issues are with connection speed
DD: and integration capacity!
ID: if you say so. i have no idea what that stuff means.
DD: it mostly means that when things go wrong it just makes people feel like things are going really slow or not all the way until they disconnect!
DD: but i cant really go into more detail than that
DD: because it is technically still in beta!
ID: ...that does not really clear up the confusion but okay.
DD: but yes i am not fleet i am a member of a private organization and i do not think i am actually old enough to work for the empire
ID: man now they're drafting young seadwellers.
ID: does no wriggler get a break these days.
ID: what happened to leaving a troll be until they hit ascension.
DD: wait what
DD: are you being sarcastic or did you misread what i wrote?
DD: i am having a hard time telling over the internet!
ID: that's my charm dd, i'm sarcastic and truthful at the same time.
DD: !!!!
ID: mostly truthful-y rn tho.
DD: that sounds like a very confusing sort of charm!
ID: you get used to it.
DD: but yes i suppose then i should clarify that i said that i am not conscripted at all!
DD: and am likely too young to be so
ID: but you're... working for a company that works for the fleet?
DD: in fact my best friend and i have started our own company and it has grown to quite a large size!! DD: the fleet has actually purchased a contract with us recently
ID: looks like some hazy ass lines right there.
DD: oh no we are working with the fleet and it is our honor to due so but it is our own startup and it is contract-based product supply!
DD: i do not work with the fleet directly even the pr things are mostly my good friends strong suit i am mostly research and development
ID: if you say so. seems like a confusing mess to me.
DD: well!!
ID: but i'm not a. researcher.
DD: there is working for somebody as in you are hired buy them
DD: and then there is them coming into your restaurant to buy a meal
DD: in the latter situation you are not working for them they are simply making a purchase!
DD: that is what we are like!!
ID: oh. okay.
ID: i guess you must be good, if they're buying from you and not like. an adult.
DD: i try to be humble most times but it is true that we are very very good!! DD: though i muse credit my good friend with a lot of it because admittedly the product does not make the company and there are plenty of fabulous inventors around that have gotten nowhere so it is their talent at management that has gotten us this far
ID: sounds like a complicated balance of you making good stuff and then being able to sell it well.
DD: yes exactly!!!
II: Management does tend to factor more into successfully selling products than pure talent, I'm afraid.
DD: it has probably been obvious as of late but i am not the best people person so i am very grateful to my friend for putting up with some of my silliness in the past and handling the business side of things
II: Not that I am doubting DD, but unfortunately surface appearances are usually what trolls consider when buying.
DD: i do not think i would have even thought to sell any of my work without them!
II: Oh, don't be so hard on yourself, DD.
II: You are perfectly pleasant
II: Merely a bit unpolished
DD: oh well i am very glad that you think so haha i am glad that i have not misstepped too much yet
II: DD, trust me.
DD: and that is one way of putting it!! DD: but hopefully i will be able to polish myself more soon and maybe the first step is going to get our horns polished id >:D
II: I have moved in highblood circles since I was a very young troll, and have observed _far_ greater errors than any you've made.
ID: maybe you two should go on a. hornicure trip.
DD: but we are already going on one together!! DD: you do not need to have them that often but maybe some time later ii and i can besides we are already going to a restaurant in civitrecce ^_^
II: We can certainly go for a hornicure trip afterward, if it wouldn't be too much time out of your schedule!
ID: i mean me and sips are traveling rn, we won't be back in port port for a while.
DD: well yes and i would love to but it would be pointless since id and i are already getting our horns done but maybe we can do a movie or our claws instead or something??
DD: and that is okay id i am not free at this exact moment anyways and admittedly i do not actually know when people want to hang out
DD: i was hoping it is kind of soon so that i could have my first burger with you guys but i suspect that i may have to break and go eat before then!!
ID: yeah def go eat.
ID: try some chicken tho.
ID: and rice.
ID: chicken and rice are good together.
DD: okay! I have had rice with fish so hopefully rice with chicken is just as good!
DD: speaking of which i should probably go do that right now to be honest my stomach is positively hurting now that i pay attention to it and i have had nothing but trollbucks all night!
DD: ...day!
DD: hopefully there are places open this late!
ID: you'll find something i'm sure. g'day.
DD: good day!!!! ❤ i am very excited to go shopping with you!
VV: ♚ ~ But I also think scary would depend on the troll, yes? My scary is likely very different from crabbies.
SA: What makes a story scary to you, Perdia?
DD: i dont really know any myself but id love to hear one!
DD: i think so anyways
DD: i dont actually watch horror movies or anything like that very much they always seem so disturbing
DD: but theyre popular around campfires arent they so there must be something to them!!
DD: granted i dont know much about campfires either but thats mostly a circumstance of living underwater until recently
VV: ♚ ~A scary story to me is someone bringing a Birkin to dinner but not bringing a coach bag to put it in just incase it rains...!!
VV: ♚ ~ Or not being prima ballerina anymore.
VV: ♚ ~ truly horrifying.
DD: i think that falls more into the tragedy genre really when you think about it!
DD: horror is when you find out it doesnt matter because it was a knockoff all along! 😛 😛 😛
VV: ♚ ~Be still my tender heart....you're rather correct.
SA: not bringing a coach bag to put it in... in case it rains.
SA: that is very complicated.
SA: I find it easier to have a single wallet.
SA: I enjoy ghost stories. Primarily because I do not believe or feel ghosts.
SA: although i have met mediums.
VV: ♚ ~ Yes! You put the coach in your Birkin, then if it rains you put the Birkin in the Coach. VV: ♚ ~ I have many more things than just a wallet I need a bag to carry it all, may as well be fashionable while I'm at it.
VV: ♚ ~ Did you tell the medium you don't believe?
DD: and really i think the point less about having things to put in your bag and more having the bag in the first place DD: its an accessory!
DD: but oh my goodness i think i believe in ghosts altogether too much
DD: though i guess at the moment im running a little bit more into revenants!! DD: the desert is full of them 😦
SA: oh, no. that would be rude.
SA: I don't understand why you need another bag to put the bag in.
SA: But alright.
SA: yes, there are many out there. so i've heard.
DD: well one of the bags is very valuable fashionable and easy to damage if it ends up in rainy conditions so if you want to be fashionable and be able to bring it places you should have a second less valuable and easily ruinable bag to protect the first one should you need it!
SA: ...Or you could simply have a decent waterproof bag to start that looks well with what you wear.
VV: ♚ ~ Ooooooh this one gets me. I enjoy this seadweller much more than yesternights~ What's your name? I never introduced myself properly, Perdia Averic.
VV: ♚ ~ Honeycomb please, I won't judge your wallet don't judge my superior, luxe bag.
DD: well yes but bags like that typically arent quite as nice! DD: though i spend most of my time underwater so that is what i end up using most of the time anyways admittedly
DD: and oh my goodness well thank you very much that is lovely to hear DD: i was afraid i had come off unfavorably earlier so i am glad that i have not yet succeeded in alienating everyone! DD: my close friend often says i sort of have a way of not being great with people so
DD: although i do agree that vv overall does have a point that while functionality is all well and good if you are into that sort of thing and surrounded by people that are into that sort of thing it really is important to have the appropriate fashionable items at certain times
DD: though i would also argue that does have a function as well just a social one!
SA: well the bag is very pretty with you, little princess. I just could never justify carrying one myself 😃
DD: oh dear i am talking a lot again
DD: my apologies!!
VV: ♚ ~ It's an ultra functional bag~ VV: ♚ ~ Thank you Prisma ✨ I'll carry your wallet for you then. I simply do have looks to upkeep even with my hue. When one works hard to keep a stance certain....choices come with it. VV: ♚ ~ Like a bag in a bag .
VV: ♚ ~ Don't apologize though DD~ You speak a lot but it's not exactly grating. Needs editing, some conciseness of course but ah~ You have a head about you which is more than can be said for some! Pity really. For them of course. They have my pity.
DD: oh but maybe i wouldnt mind some pity insert jokingly coy giggling here DD: you dont happen to be a particularly attractive rainbowdrinker bedecked in frills do you? DD: because i have recently discovered i am quite partial to those! DD: more seriously though thank you that is very lovely to hear especially from a princess of such good taste!
DD: but you are right in that i could do to be more concise my good friend often says similarly though admittedly it is more due to the linebreaks in my codewriting
DD: it is a work in progress!!!
VV: ♚ ~ Oh how transparent you seem to be! I am bedecked in frills often enough but unfortunatley, or rather fortunatley as I am fond of my rougey hue, I am not a jade let alone a deceased one. VV: ♚ ~ Plus my pusher is already claimed hohoho <3 VV: ♚ ~ There's always bound to be one that wanders into this forsaken chat one night though! Sweep them up before another troll does.
VV: ♚ ~ Or go for more...violent measures but I really don't and would never recommend someone get their owns hands dirty.
VV: ♚ ~ Ah! Speaking of maintanence. I must rest. Not that I require much upkeep but a good rest is important! Do rest well new friend, and Honeycomb prince as well~ Good light .
DD: i guess i am pretty transparent but its not as though i have anything to hide really DD: aide from company secrets of course but that's something im good at keeping mum about! DD: and oh dear i dont suppose i really know what you mean when it comes to more violent measures but that sounds like the sort of alarming thing maybe more suited towards the scary stories people brought up earlier!!
DD: and thank you very much i do hope you have a good rest as well!! DD: it is actually nearly moonlight over here as well and i should be turning in soon i just DD: got caught up working on a project of mine and lost track of time! DD: i was just taking a break when i turned on this chat but really i will go to bed DD: i only have to finish... DD: a few more minor things!!! DD: and maybe....
DD: hm!
SA: I apologize, I had to get ready for rest myself.
SA: finish them then?
SA: ..."would never advise someone to get their own hands dirty"
SA: 🤔 goodnight
DD: i am going to finish them!! DD: i just thought of another idea i could implement alongside the module that i am currently editing and oh dear
DD: i cant just stop now! DD: i am on a roll
DD: also i do believe our dear vv is advocating for the use of an auspistice! DD: or an assassin!! DD: i am not quite sure which!
DD: though i am a little bit inclined to select the mediator option on account of i have had some rather hands on dealings with assassins lately and it has all left a sour taste in my mouth!
DD: and not even the good kind of sour like you get with pickled herring
DD: oh dear i believe i am craving fish again DD: there is NO FISH here in the desert!!
ID: alright status report, how is everyone doing post-faire?
SA: Working.
SA has sent IMG_045.png. It is a selfie of him, angled high enough to show a blue or dark indigo troll pinned on the ground. They appear to be unconscious
ID: pftttt. nice selfie background there. better be careful. =:P
SA: this is the last one for the night 😄
SA: I am excited to go hive and sleep.
SA: How are you? How was the party at Siparas?
ID: i'm sure you are.
ID: i'm good. tired, but i didn't expect to sleep well so it's whatever. watched way more fantasy trolls crying about having to dump a magic ring than i ever wanted to.
SA: Oh, it was the lord of the rings?
SA: what would you do if your friend wouldn't let go of the ring, Hadean.
ID: uh i probably would have ganked the ring like. a perigee ago lbh.
SA: it isn't even that useful... Doesn't it just turn the wearer invisible?
ID: i don't know, the evil dude seemed to make it seem like it could do more. maybe it can amplify psi or something. i think the main whiny guy was a flatscan.
SA: maybe. How else would you become a flaming eye.
SA: truly living the life.
ID: idk it was fun. lots of eyecandy at least.
SA: the elves are always nice ❤
SA: I appreciate the costuming more than anything. much better than the chainmail bikinis at the faire.
ID: i liked aragon. he seemed like a cool guy.
SA: And he even got all of his quadrants in the end with his kingdom surviving.
ID: and he got to lead like. all the cool fights.
SA: I'm growing my hair out.
SA: this is what I've gained from this conversation.
SA: I want you to know this.
SA: Hang on, my client is being difficult.
ID: pff if you're gonna, go for it! you got one of those damn mugs that gets to look good no matter what, so.
AA: omggg. but will it blow majestically in the wind? >:}
ID: he already can see stuff.
ID: pris, what do your cuspy eyes see?
SA: Me beating the shit out of this fuchsia if they don't double my pay.
ID: pffff live the dream pris. and get good with a bow.
SA: I am good with a long distance rifle, does that count
SA: No, it will not blow majestically in the wind.
SA: problem resolved. cusp is now theirs.
SA: I can go hive now.
ID: i mean a rifle is just an advanced bow right. so sure.
AA: booooo, no point in long hairn w/o it blowing.
ID: uh the point is to put it in a cool braid. obvs.
AA: brnaid? singularn?? n.
AA: go big orn go home, hads, gotta have, like, at L E A S T a dozen beforne they'rne cool. >:}
SA: Hadean's hair is. too long.
ID: bite me. =:I i like my braid.
AA: you like plenty of lame shit, brnah, embrnace it. accept yrn weak sauce brnaid tastes. >:P
AA: and too long???
SA: emerel stepped on it during the fight, that's too long.
ID: i got him off of it, didn't i?
ID: i mean him stepping on it was just being spiteful.
ID: and i really should've put a spike through his foot for it.
AA: y, that. on both. AA: you can't do yrn app by what ppl might grnab, othernwise, you'll just, like. AA: look borning as fuck. >:P
ID: i mean if it wasn't my braid, he'd have been stomping on my horns.
ID: i have a very grab-able appearance.
SA: I feel as if his foot would have rolled off though due to the shape.
SA: You do.
SA: If I ever need to stop you I can just reach slightly a head but I may also clothesline you
ID: wow pris, don't clothesline me. or grab at me, hella rude. why would you need to stop me! =:P
SA: Maybe I saw something cute in a window and wanted to show you while shopping.
SA: I have clotheslined people as they've ran away, however. It is. hilarious.
SA: because I knoww here they will be so I stategically do nothing.
ID: ....it's called telling me to stop pris, c'mon.
SA: I know that
SA: Please, like I would actually do it...
ID: i like not being clotheslined. =:P
SA: I would never clothesline you.
SA: does that help
ID: yes.
SA: In general i would never intentionally cause you harm.
SA: sleep well at night.
AA: lmao. awww.
AA: but will you watch him while he sleeps to guarantee he sleeps well?? bc, like, if we'rne clarnifying things, that totes is apparnently a thing that should be clarnified, too.
ID: no we cleared that watching people sleep is fucking creepy.
SA: I am not going to watch him sleep...
ID: though apparently pheres disagrees.
AA: okay, okay, good. >:}
SA: I admit I am unsettling but i am at least vaguely aware of proximics and personal boundaries.
ID: i sleep like shit without worrying about someone watching me sleep. =:I
AA: we do not talk abt phern's shitty rnom tastes, 'kay, we just close ourn bulbs and trny to ignorne them.
AA: and gj, prni. AA: the vaguely is totes still ominous tho. >:} jsyk.
SA: it is what i do best.
SA: It's how i keep my clients in line and from not abducting me 😉
SA: nom tastes?
ID: romantic tastes.
SA: ah.
AA: .... AA: ........ AA: WTF arne yrn clients trnying to abduct you forn.
SA: nothing, it was a joke.
ID: oh.
SA: however I would be a convenient thing to trap and use of free.
ID: i figured they'd try and abduct you to use your psi without having to, y'know. pay you. seems about right.
SA: yes
SA: I've only been threatened a few times.
SA: The Provenance underground is much more managable, though.
AA: >:{
AA: did you cull em?
ID: trolls can be fucking weird.
SA: They have been dealt with in a way that doesn't cause me long-standing harm, let me put it like this.
SA: murder isn't a sollution always, their court will come after you.
ID: you ever meet some of those highbloods that read helmsman romance.
ID: they'll make you want to scrub your skin raw after talking to them for like. a second.
AA: hmph. did you at least make a good example of them?? bc, like, if yrn getting pushed arnound, then not fucking making a points only gonna get theirn peeps brnave.
SA: I don't get pushed around.
AA: ugh, y. lived with one. they'rne the fucking wornst.
AA: good!!
SA: don't worry, I am fairly good at this.
SA: as naive as I often seem.
SA: crime and work and military are things i excel at.
ID: the fucking worst is right.
SA: What happens in helmsman romances?
ID: and go pris. =:)
SA: I understand the concept but... how.
AA: y, y, obvs you arne a strnong independent - hahahaha.
AA: hads can dd you, bc I ain't in the mood to scrnub my hands clean aftern. >:P
ID: oh. you know. usually they start out in a clade or a quad. and then end up getting drafted to the helm. and the highblood happens to be on the same ship.
SA: ...what is a clade.
SA: I have been holding off asking for fear of embarassment
ID: ah... like... the trolls that are quadded to your quad?
SA: ah.
AA: y! enclades arne the ppl you ain't piling, but, like, you still can't cull, bc it'd be fucked up. and if someone culls them, you gotta rnetaliate, orn Y RN fucked up.
ID: yeah. sips knows. i'm like the worst troll to talk about clades.
SA: ...that is immensely complicated.
ID: yeah social shit usually is.
AA: also, ngl, the ones I knew abt werne all, like, crneepy bluebloods falling forn theirn ship, bc the insurnmountable bond bw trnoll and ship, ect ect, and, like, despernate lost in space piles, and pirnate rnaids makin' the helms all like 'I'm the only one allowed to cull them!!', and AA: ughhh, I'm grnossing myself out.
ID: i know mostly about the younger helms novels.
AA: >:? AA: it isn'ttttt. it's totes ez, dudes.
SA: that's. horrific.
SA: that would be like writing a romance story between my program psions and their handlers.
SA: but much worse, because were are children
SA: disgusting.
ID: yeah, well. it happens.
ID: and some trolls really buy in to the idea.
ID: me and pris have never been a part of a clade so. it seems complicated to us.
SA: it sounds like it would cause a long chain cycle of revenge.
ID: i mean being part of a clade is supposed to help. prevent trolls from wanting to cull your ass i think?
ID: for fear of being counter-culled by the clade.
SA: But I feel like it would make it hard to operate as well.
SA: fear of causing tension or rejection.
SA: attrox's matesprit was a virulent, hateful thing who was also quadded to my roommate.
SA: and there was a lot of tension between him and anyof attrox's other quadrants or friends.
SA: htey broke up perhaps because of my intervention.
SA: I don't feel particularly bad.
ID: that's when you get an ashen or whatever. or break up, that works.
SA: how do you auspistice something when they don't acknowledge there is a problem?
SA: despite one of them crying contantly about how much they hurt.
SA: I do not know.
SA: I would be happy with a red or a romantic pale, if I had to have a quadrant. And just one.
AA: i mean, y, can totally starnt a wicked rnevenge cycle. but it's like hads said. AA: and lmao, you can't be a clade if ppl arne unhealthy shitfurnoodles, dude. all you can do is wipe yrn hands of that shit.
AA: .. why not pitch?? >:
AA: >:?
ID: my bachelor lifestyle has worked out alright for me.
SA: there's reasons but i'd rather not explain.
AA: you don't gotta quad if you don't wanna. but, like, idk, don't let crnazy fuckerns turn you off?? ppl arne always batshit. AA: and quads arne fun. >:} like, idk, i ain't evern without a pitch, bc.. it'd be fucking borning.
SA: i don't see excitement in that, though.
AA: flushrnoms lame tho, txt it.
SA: i have enough excitement in my life. I would be happy knowing I feel safe with someone.
ID: i mean pitch is supposed to be safe rivalry.
SA: Well yes but that's not what i meant.
AA: yrn supposed to feel safe w yrn kismesis, losern. if they'rne dangernous, it ain't pitch, it's, like. fucked up pale w pails.
SA: what
ID: idk i have a shitty personality for quads, so i just leave them be.
ID: yeahhh some people pail their pales. weird quadrant smearing stuff.
AA: y, it's grnoss. and stfu, yrn fine. have you evern even trnied having a quad??
SA: Pailing is.
SA: unsanitary.
SA: kissing is fine though. i think kissing would be nice in theory.
SA: but nothing is better than my cold bed.
ID: ...
AA: lmaooo.
AA: well, shit, then get a fish.
AA: >:P
SA: i left the airconditioning on so everything is cold and it's very nice.
SA: ...I don't... want a fish.
ID: i like lukewarm best.
ID: i got too hot and too cold easy.
SA: sharing a bed with you must be hell on alternia.

SA: see.
AA: rneal talk!! have neithern of you, like, evern had quads??
AA: evern?? >:
AA: >:?
ID: i mean... nah.
SA: No.
SA: quads were discouraged for program psions.
SA: I actually believe we are all sterile so it wouldn't matter.
SA: But I am unsure of the specifics.
AA: holy shit. at both of you - AA: uH.
SA: ...
SA: was that too much information.
AA: y. am kinda curnious how the f you know that, but, like, sparne me the deets.
SA: i think you misunderstand but i will spare you.
ID: it's okay pris, we can be quadless coolguys.

AA: if you don't have any othern quads, you should totally have that.
SA: wouldn't it be a high bar because it would be so easy to pass.
SA: if it were limb.
ID: the only troll i can trust to have my best interests at pumper is myself. i'm just my own moirail, clearly.
ID: sometimes i'm just lazy on the job.
AA: lmao, yrn a p shit one, then. trnade up!!
SA: you and hadean often stop me from revealing all my secrets, which is good enough.
SA: but in day to day life whether or not I properly express myself is often irrelevant and infact volatile high bloods often take it as a threat as i cann't be coerced convetnionally.
ID: hey, i'm doing alright. =:P
ID: i'm too high maintenance for anyone else to stand.
SA: i find you tolerable if extremely unwise.

ID: oh hi yern.

LC: [ But is self-moirailing healthYY? I am not aware of such research paper existing as of right now. ] LC: [ To a degree, I am positive it works and I hope it's not just YYour last ditch effort of taking care of YYourself. ]
ID: hahah wowww. last ditch effort, that's hella rude.
SA: self moirailing could also be considered minding.
ID: i'm positive i'm a well oiled self-moirailing machine.
SA: which is a required skill for basic social navigation and problem solving.
SA: so I don't have it.
SA: :p
ID: =:P
LC: [ Well, I am not suggesting YYou can't get a moirail even if YYou wanted to. ] LC: [ And well. ]

AA: brneak the mirnrnorn!!
LC: [ I mean, that works. ]
SA: "i'm finding a REAL moirail now!"
AA: yeah!!

ID: why are you all so against me as my moirail, hella rude.
SA: note to self: strangulation is a hazard.
ID: i cope just fine!
AA: bc you desernve a prnettiern one, duh, and we only want the best form you. >:}

LC: [ I... guess. ]
AA: hads, n.
AA: that's dumb and yrn dumb.
AA: almost as dumb as that statement. >:{
SA: it stops me from destroying myself which is the same thing, right.
ID: yeah!
SA: you narrowly limbo under death and I narrowly avoid having a catastrophic meltdown.
ID: now if it'll shock you when you blab too much.
SA: you already do that.

ID: 🖤 🖤 🖤
ID: are they invisible? i see them.
LC: [ I see. For sYYmbolizing "platonic love" but not in the <> sense? ]
SA: they look sort of invisible on my phone but my backlight is dark.
LC: [ Or did I just miss the point. ]
SA: i think it's more for kismesisitude crossed with matespritship.
ID: they don't have a white heart this is bullshit.
LC: [ ... Wouldn't that be a black heart? ]
AA: i can't see them eithern. >:{
SA: well it is a black hert.
ID: 💙 we can use this one for platonic hearts?
SA: but that requires... finding it in the list.
AA: haaads, stop trn - nnnnn.
AA: and it's blue!!
SA: or you could all assume that if I'm using a heart... it's... platonic.
ID: 💚
SA: and you all can use the multicolored rainbow hearts.
SA: nevermind I like that one.
SA: that's my new heart.
SA: it's my color.

LC: [ WhYY would YYou need to brush it 24/7 while travelling. ] LC: [ Just brush it at the morning, then at the evening. If the weather is windYY, tie it up. ]
SA: wouldn't it be easier to have short hair because you can't take careo f it....?
SA: get a hipster cut like mine.
LC: [ Well I happen to have quite a long hair and I also travel alot. ]
SA: i now advocate you being bald.
LC: [ It's manageable, and also up to what others feel comfortable with. ]

AA: it was down to the floorn, tyvm, and some chucklefuck cut it off.
AA: >:1
LC: [ Long hair can be quite useful. ]

AA: haha, n, it was a lame-o teal frnom the rning. same place as my face. >:1 AA: and hmm?
AA: haha, it's a little fucked, y.
SA: teals are unusually arrogant.
LC: [ Well, I most definitelYY don't want to know how manYY non-purplebloods got "brainwashed" to be part of the Dark Carnival. ]
ID: teals are the worst. they're in that in-between area that makes them overcompensate.
AA: ^
ID: i mean it's no worse than young psis getting brainwashed by everything else that'll brainwash you. really.
SA: military.
LC: [ MYY experiences with tealbloods been reallYY... mixed. But there are some who are trulYY trYYing to overcompensate. ]
SA: trafficking.
SA: etc
ID: exactly. we're such a hot commodity doncha know.
LC: [ Well, anYYkind of brainwashing is still brainwashing and negativelYY well... affects the troll in question. ]
SA: in some ways it was a positive experience for me.
AA: oh my god.
LC: [ YYou are the rare exception in that case. ]
LC: [ Unless it was pure sarcasm. Then nevermind. ]
ID: i mean. trolls like pris are becoming depressingly more common, y'know?
SA: no, I did learn much more from my program than I would haveb eing left on planet without being put in.
SA: But I would also still have complete feelings.
ID: they're deciding we don't last long enough to get a happy wrigglerhood.
SA: so you tell me.

SA: I won't.
ID: you were already in the military pris, that counts.
SA: damn you.
LC: [ Well, I wish lowerbloods got more leewaYY just as higherbloods. And I don't have manYY intentions to be part of the militarYY. ]
SA: no but if you are sorted there then you will be but if not you will be fine.
SA: if I were recaptured and retested I would still tesr for the military based on psionics but also because my protective instincts are outrageously high.
SA: lavender chai sounds good.
LC: [ Well I'd rather not. I am a cartographer and a mapmaker, not a troll who wants to deal with official paperwork and not seeing a planet for the rest of mYY lifespan. ] LC: [ ... And I am aware I am more fortunate that I can counter-argue against it. ]
SA: you could become part of recon
ID: i mean yer is high enough, he'll get some more choice.
ID: esp if he's actually good at what he wants to do.
ID: ...you're a he, right.
LC: [ Well, I positivelYY am. And YYes. ]
ID: see? nothing for him to worry about.
LC: [ If I happened to end up as a ship captain or anYYthing (Not sure if I'd qualifYY), I'd probablYY do mYY best to provide mYY crew an actuallYY pleasant... work experience. ]
LC: [ Which is a major "If", cause being a ship captain sounds stressful. ]
ID: man, my pumper breaks for you. =:P
LC: [ I see YYour sarcasm and I am not going to counter it with sarcasm. ]
ID: good because i would have had to make it weird if you did.
SA: I don't know if you want praise for this attempt to be a decent person or not
ID: c'mon pris, he's trying! that's better than like. most of the highbloods in here.
LC: [ ... Prisma. ] LC: [ I am aware I am "priviliged" and no waYY will I ever experience what lowerbloods got to go through. ]
LC: [ I am prettYY self-aware, thank YYou verYY much. ]
SA: I never said you weren't.
LC: [ Well, some implications were there. AnYYwaYY. I am not going to go into anYYkind of sob stories. ] LC: [ I am just generallYY trYYing to be a decent troll and not judge one bYY it's caste if theYY happen to be lower on the spectrum. ]
ID: so yern, you watch lord of the rings.

It's summer, and that means blockbuster season has officially hit! The latest in troll Star Wars (The Second in the Trilogy of the Story In Which A Young Troll Fights a False Empire to Restore The Old Republic) now has a date. The sequel to the prize-winning Aquatic Horrorterrors Ascend to Consume the Planet and are Valiantly Fought by Mechanical Hoofbeasts has just been released. The Fleetside Entertainer’s Guild is hard at work to entertain the masses, but there's been an error this half-sweep. The latest piece of not one, but two major rainbow-drinker franchises have just been released, and the planet is going absolutely mad.
Every theatre, minor and major, is featuring JOURNALS OF AN IMMORTAL ANCESTRAL RAINBOWDRINKER, or the latest TROLL TWILIGHT. Every news network is covering them. Social media is filled with brawls between TEAM LESTAT and TEAM EDWARD, and worse yet, every FLARPing convention is suffering from a sudden surplus of players sporting fake fangs and jade. Have your trolls been caught up in the chaos? Do they have opinions, or are they just waiting for the madness to end?
ID: quick someone fill me in on what a lestat is.
SA: a character of significant rainbow drinker fiction.
ID: and why people are fucking fighting over it- oh.
SA: hadean did you know google can be your friend too.
SA: because it can.
SA: just as it is my friend.
SA: 😃
ID: pris i could smack your smartmouth off of you sometimes. =:P
WC: ~(He's a drinker who's not quite up to the times) WC: ~(Really quite handsome~!)
ID: it's called starting a conversation.
SA: ❤
SA: Oh, do you read the series, WC?
WC: ~(And then Edward is uh) WC: ~(Creepy ^^)
ID: is edward his mate or.
ID: his kismesis maybe?
WC: ~(I've seen the movies, but I don't have much time to read I'm afraid ono)
WC: ~(No, Edward is a different series entirely)
ID: how many rainbowdrinker series do we need. =:I
WC: ~(Though the author of Lestat's saga keeps having people culled for writing stories about it)
SA: until everyone has their unsettling fly by night romances fulfilled.
ID: hahahah woowwww.
SA: that's horrific.
WC: ~(Come to think of it I think she may have also joined the church........)
WC: ~(A sad end to a good looking drinker story (─n─) )
SA: they... joined the church...
WC: ~(Uh huh)
WC: ~(It was weird)
ID: figures.
ID: you'd think rainbowdrinkers would be considered overplayed by now.
WC: ~(And then the Edward series author is also kind of insane) WC: ~(But at least she doesn't cull people for fanfiction)
SA: Didn't her series inspire 50 shades.
WC: ~(Surprisingly they're not) WC: ~(But then again, they DO tend to be kind of pretty)
WC: ~(WE DON'T TALK ABOUT THAT)
SA: oh.
SA: okay.
WC: ~(>-< !!!!!!!)
ID: i mean. they're not all pretty.
SA: i see it is a source of agony for you. Ia pologize.
ID: some of them look like. nosferatu.
WC: ~(Have you ever seen a drinker in a movie that wasn't super hot) WC: ~(People are very biased towards the pretty)
WC: ~(Well, more recent movies) WC: ~(They used to be quite a bit scarier looking!)
ID: i think the older movies depicted them more accurately.
WC: ~(Then everyone wanted the dark and brooding trolls apparently)
WC: ~(Troll Edward also watches people while they sleep) WC: ~(Ugh)
WC: ~(I'd beat someone with a wrench for that.......)
SA: Oh like me.
ID: that's fucking sketchy as fuck.
ID: ...
SA: I assocate with this character already.
SA: I am joking
ID: pris.
SA: it is a joke.
WC: ~(Are you going to watch me while I sleep SA)
ID: oh.
ID: you're a hard one to read sometimes pris.
SA: But not always, and that's just enough for me to not be immensely unsettling 24/7.
SA: No, I will not watch you sleep, WC.
WC: ~(Well, I'll just inform ID we have company then ~u^)
WC: ~(Uh) WC: ~(The not Hadean ID) WC: ~(Man that's still so weird)
ID: ahahah i guess i fit in even wearing em's shirt now. everyone is wearing jade it seems like.
ID: yeah, well. i'm not changing my tag. =:P
WC: ~(Oh, please don't! It's quite nice!)
WC: ~(It just feels weird because ID hates being called by his name so he's just ID)
SA: what a strange thing to be bothered by.
SA: 😦
ID: oh. well, my name rocks so. call me by it all you want.
WC: ~(It just takes some getting used to)
SA: yes. if you want bonus points, make sure you call him professor hadeon.
WC: ~(Your name does rock, I agree)
WC: ~(Professor?)
SA: much like gliese is the dean of clown university.
WC: ~(Oh my god what)
ID: hahahah here we go.
SA: I have orange juice and i have never been better right now.
WC: ~(Is it orange juice or orange faygo)
SA: it's orange juice because faygo is for plebians.
WC: ~(Because you're sounding like quite the mirthful posterchild)
SA: a yellowblood associating with the cult would be a deathwish.
WC: ~(Faygo is for plebians) WC: ~(I think we're going to get along well ^^)
ID: faygo tastes like plastic and regrets so.
SA: fanta is much better.
WC: ~(It tastes like pure sugar)
WC: ~(Now Tab on the other hand)
ID: the fuck is a fanta.
WC: ~(I take it you haven't seen the commercials)
ID: i don't watch stuff.
SA: They are very catchy.
SA: isn't tab just a knockoff.
WC: ~ (https://youtu.be/F614uU3DsqM?t=14s)
WC: ~(For some reason I could only find one in a different language?)
SA: las fantas son muy divertida.
ID: so that's why you like fanta, huh pris? =:P
SA: No, that's not at all why I like fanta.
WC: ~(Hehe if you say so!) WC: ~(I don't speak whatever language that is I'm afraid)
WC: ~(Fanta is alright, but it's a bit too fruity for me)
SA: strawberry is the best.
SA: also why did you say it like that, Hadean...
ID: it was a joke pris.
SA: are you implying i am attracted to lowbloods in skanty clothes singing about sugary drinks.
SA: if so the answer is yes.
WC: ~(Oh my!)
SA: (the answer is actually no)
WC: ~(Scandalous!)
ID: pffttt.
ID: i don't drink soda. i just drink water.
SA: You could be a fanta singer in your renfaire outfit.
SA: Nothing else? just water?
WC: ~(I did see chainmail bikinis there) WC ~(So anything is possible!)
WC: ~(Chainmail bikinis.......why.........)
ID: ah yes. my dreams of being a face for a soda company will come true.
ID: i mean. water is free.
ID: and i have yet to find a soda river to drink out of.
SA: you can't just... drink river water.
SA: it could have the ecol.i s.
ID: look at me. drinking river water.
ID: and rain barrel water.
SA: I am going to strangle you.
ID: and sometimes puddles.
SA: oh, chainmail bikinis. My favorite is the leia outfit. I see that a lot at inappropriate times.
WC: ~(I wonder what the blueprints for a homebrew water purifier would look like)
WC: ~(Hmmmm)
SA: Hadean >:'(
WC: ~(Well I know what I'm doing tonight, thanks for the idea~)
ID: anytime i guess.
SA: they make tabs for it, too.
ID: when you're thirsty water is water pris.
ID: bugs in it is just. extra protein. =:P
ID: and dirt is minerals!
WC: ~(I suppose there's worse things in the world than dirty water)
WC: ~(Where do you live?)
ID: i travel. so. everywhere.
WC: ~(Oooh exciting!)
WC: ~(I travel too! But not very often. I'm busy a lot!)
WC: ~(What's your favorite place you've been so far?)
ID: uhhh. found a really pretty waterfall once. looked like it came out of a fucking painting. spent a while there, plenty of stuff to eat around there. that was probably my favorite. nice and empty.
WC: ~(Oh that sounds wonderful) WC: ~(Where was it?)
ID: i don't really do maps. so.... way far east.
SA: what is it you do, WC? SA: do you have any photos, Hadean/
WC: ~(Hmmmm) WC: ~(Time to do some exploring next time I'm out there!)
WC: ~(I work with machines)
ID: i dunno, i'd have to look around and get back to you pris. what sort of machines?
WC: ~(Building, blueprints, parts transfer) WC: ~(All that good stuff)
WC: ~(Anything, really. But my pride and joy is my ship. I built it with my own two hands)
SA: A ship?
SA: as in, for water or air or space.
WC: ~(Yep! It runs on steam with a power core backup)
WC: ~(The air)
SA: hmm.
ID: neat.
ID: as long as ti never crashes i mean.
WC: ~(I'd need a lot more material for a spaceship) WC: ~(Plus, there's the issue of working on the oxygen systems) WC: ~(I haven't figured that one out yet)
WC: ~(It's never crashed yet!)
WC: ~(That's how I get from place to place when I'm going far away)
ID: i see. i usually just ride my lusus.
WC: ~(Mine is a bit too ornery to be ridden. She'll throw you right off if she feels like it.) WC: ~(What is your lusus?)
ID: big horned hoofbeast.
WC: ~(!!!)
WC: ~(Cute!)
WC: ~( (˙❀‿❀˙))
ID: he's pretty cute, yeah.

SA: do.. domestic animals do that/
WC: ~(Sure!)
WC: ~(All the time!)
WC: ~(It's how they get attention)
ID: when he wants me to scratch him or shit, yeah.
ID: or he'll just rub his head on me.
WC: ~(That's precious and I love your lusus)
WC: ~(SA, are you not around domestic animals often? :( )
SA: Oh, cats sometimes rub their heads on ankles.
SA: No, not really.
WC: ~(My Paintball does that all the time) WC: ~(He'll just rub my legs and sometimes try to trip me) WC: ~(He's adorable)
SA: I want to meet... your lusus, Hadean. Horned hoofbeast is not specific enough.
SA: I wish I could have a cat, but unfortunately.
SA: Is paintball a cat?
WC: ~(Yep~)
ID: well come by and you can meet him. bring him an apple and he'll be your friend forever.
WC: ~(ID and my other friend were covered in paint when they brought him in) WC: ~(And they had apparently been involved in a paintball war and got him out of a tree) WC: ~(So they say ;P) WC: ~(And now he's mine and I love him)
WC: ~(I can send you pictures of mine if you'd like SA)
SA: Oh, right, I'm on my way to pick up your flowers again.

SA: I will see you soon then?
ID: got it, lemonade at the blue circle. try not to fall asleep. =:P
SA: I am wide awake for once, thankfully.
SA: ! here is my daily exclaimation point to prove it.
ID: well damn, can't argue that logic.
ID: sushi is weird. edible, but weird.
SA: it helps if you put soy sauce on the one with just salmon and rice.
SA: hello I'm back at my hotel
DD: wait are you putting soy sauce on sushi or just rice salmon DD: because i love sushi but ive never really had a chance to try it above water and its a little hard to find it around here now that im in the desert! DD: and i guess before i mostly ate it underwater and you can imagine how trying to put a liquid condiment on anything works in that context!
DD: besides soy sauce is salty and the ocean is already all about that
ID: ....uh yeah it's sushi. why are you in the desert. that seems like the worst place for a fish.
SA: sashimi, I believe. I'm sorry you aren't able to get it where you are. Maybe if you find a city?
ID: what the fuck is sashimi.
SA: soy sauce has flabor
RS: | Fish | ! |
DD: im in a city! DD: or i guess its more like a town because i guess its pretty quaint DD: im not sure how big cities have to be but there arent even any sky scrapers here!
RS: | | I Assume | ? | =:? |
SA: no, I'm stupid. It's nigiri 🍣
DD: and the ocean has flavor too but i guess the flavor is mostly called fish excrement which sounds a lot less appealing than soy sauce
ID: what the fuck is a nigiri.
DD: though i guess i dont know what soy sauce is made of either
SA: 🍣 the little fish slices with rice on the platter I brought you
ID: ...hah. soy sauce is made out of. soy?
DD: thats called nigiri yes!
DD: soy what though?? DD: like those little cubes of fake meat i heard those are soy too
SA: a big city would be much better for fish, yes. You should try to find a port. That would be the best place.
DD: though i dont see why you would want fake meat when you can just have some nice fish
ID: so they. all have their own name? that seems confusing.
DD: i thought i was going to be in a port!!! DD: its CALLED port mina
SA: yes. Sashimi is just fish. Fresh. Nigiri is fresh fish sliced with rice.
DD: but its just desert everywhere!
ID: heyyy port port.
SA: sushi is. Sushi
SA; why do you keep calling it port port...
DD: and SA thats like saying sandwiches are sandwiches!
SA: that sounds. Horrid
DD: like sure theyre all sandwiches but its not like a fish salad sandwich is the same as a cheeseburger!
ID: mina means port or whatever.
ID: so the name means port port.
DD: wait really? DD: i thought it was like
DD: mina meenah condesce
ID: i don't know. i think i remembered right.
DD: and maybe they just didnt know how to spell
ID: i mean. why would you name a lowblood town after the condesce.
II: To honor her, presumably.
II: But perhaps it's just a coincidence.
DD: well its not really entirely a lowblood town! DD: i just met up with the nicest blueblood banker they complimented my bow! DD: and yes of course theres no need to restrict honoring our lovely sovereign to specific castes!
DD: regardless i will be one very happy travelor if i find myself some sushi as unlikely as that is! DD: i miss eel
DD: eel is the best
II: ...goodness, I just looked up that town, what on Alternia are you doing in the desert, sovereign?
DD: especially acid-fried
II: Are you lost?
ID: congrats you met the most boring of the three bluebloods there i think.
DD: ... do you think i could order some of that to go?
DD: do they deliver to deserts?
ID: assume probably not.
II: Haha! I don't think anyone delivers that far.
DD: and of course im not lost! DD: im on vacation exactly where i need to be! DD: a working vacation i guess haha because im still working but regardless its all very sanctioned and work-related
DD: just some company troubles is all
DD: and oh really?
DD: ... not even if you pay them a lot?
ID: ...what are you working on in a lowblood town.
DD: i gave myself cravings 😢
II: Oh, well. That makes sense. But it does seem potentially bad for your health.
II: I hope you don't dry out.
ID: and i mean. they can try but by the time they get to you it'd be gross probs.
DD: fancy, fancy things that i cant tell you about for reasons related to nondisclosure agreements and also the integrity of my company! DD: but mostly starship things
DD: theres a helmstraining facility out here!
DD: theyre very helpful in that regard
ID: yeahhh there sure is.
II: Oh, a helm facility? Fascinating.
SA: helmstraining facility... in port Mina.
SA: unpleasant.
II: Oh, I see now. Station 11, is that right?
DD: well no not strictly in the city but the city (town??) is the closest place to
DD: yes station 11!!!
RS: | Oh | Don't Say That | Haha | RS: | Ah | We've got People Who Work There on Here | RS: | They would be | Distressed |
DD: the closest place to station 11 with you know beds and showers and things like that
ID: don't fret about it pris.
ID: i think the station mostly keeps to itself.
DD: and oh dear why is that unpleasant? DD: much more pleasant than requiring the poor locals to travel all the way out to where *Ii usually live!!
SA: I'm not fretting but after what Gliese said about the area I am surprised there would be one there.
SA: I am only concerned about the imperial hunters.
SA: and they are preoccupied right now.
ID: it's why gliese is there pris. now hush up.
DD: um!
DD: the what now?
SA: 🤷♀️ nothing
II: Imperial hunters? What, like legislacerators?
DD: wow that is all very suspicious
ID: the folks he works for sometimes, chillax.
DD: but also in that kind of edgy way people our age use when they want to be cool
SA: I don't want to he cool, thank you.
DD: so i will go ahead and buy in and i assure you im very impressed!!
II: Oh, don't be unkind, DD.
II: I'd say we don't have enough information to assume that.
DD: im not being unkind! DD: ... a little bit too forward maybe! DD: my apologies i was being entirely sincere!
SA: 🙄
II: Conclusions without cause and all.
ID: pris finds stuff, it's his job.
II: I for one am intrigued.
DD: thats a very generalized job description? DD: what kinds of things do you find? DD: lost items? DD: items that are lost after you find them? DD: fears?
DD: i read the most interesting story once about a psionic
ID: whatever he gets paid to find, duh.
DD: her powers were that she could find anything! and of course the writer write the trickiest plot twist DD: she eventually defeated her greatest enemy by finding his greatest fear!
SA: people, usually.
II: ...That sounds more like an empath's ability.
DD: and oh alright thats sensical of course i was just trying to inject some DRAMA into it
SA: yes. Much more empathetic
DD: well she could find items too!
SA: empaths can also detect an emotion attached to an item
ID: op main character please nerf.
II: I don't think this person had much experience of actual psiionics, abilities don't often intersect like that.
SA: 🤷♀️ sounds op to me 😂
DD: well i suppose so DD: i believe the writer was jade DD: i dont suppose they get out much to see anybody when theyve got all those cavern duties and such!
DD: and what does that mean SA?
II: Overpowered.
DD: the emotions i mean!
ID: typical highbloods writing about junk they know nothing about.
ID: uh.
DD: er
II: Oh, I think SA is amused.
ID: team edward or team lestat.
DD: no i mean
DD: oh goodness this chat moves quickly
DD: what does it mean that items have emotions attached to them?
SA: yes. I'm amused.
DD: and also team edward
SA: lets go with that.
DD: definitely edward
II: ...what
DD: also also i dont think a jadeblood really qualifies for a highblood haha
II: What are we even talking about now
RS: | ! | ! | Why Edward | ? |
DD: theyre just barely halfway!
II: Who are these trolls
ID: i'm rust, everything is high. =:P
II: Lestat and Edward
ID: man ii, get with the movies.
II: I'm usually too busy to go to the cinema, alas.
DD: well hes so romantic isnt he rs??? DD: he goes so far to show his dedication to his matesprit and oh
DD: i would love to have a matesprit that loves me that much
DD: sigh
RS: | It is a Delightful Media Chain | II | ! | RS: | Or | Er | Two |
SA: watching them sleep?
DD: (i would also love to have some smoked eel but i suppose we cant always get what we want)
SA: who are we talking about.
RS: | And | Oh | Haha | RS: | Yes | He is Rather Romantic | But | RS: | Isn't Lestat Moreso | ? |
RS: | Consider | His Dedication | ! |
SA: I thought Lestat was an utter prick
DD: to protect them!! DD: and because he just cant keep himself away DD: he is enamored
II: ...that sounds frankly disturbing, is this movie supposed to be a PSA about what to avoid in quadrants?
SA: perhaps.
DD: what no of course not!!!
SA: have you heard of its sequel? Fifty shades?
SA: 😂
DD: have you never considered that a quadrant might need protection??
II: Oh, _that._ I only know it because the firm gossiped about it.
II: It sounds dreadful.
DD: and oh my goodness DD: somebody lent me that book once!
DD: i er
DD: did not expect it to be about that kind of thing!
II: Any quadrant of mine would be quite capable of protecting themselves, without me having to _stare_ at them during the day, goodness.
ID: 50 shades, some dumb little rust gets manipulated to fuck by a highblood. unhealthy as fuck from the reviews i'm reading.
II: Truly atrocious, I agree, ID.
DD: well im sure he wasnt just sitting there staring at them the whole time that sounds awfully boring
RS: | Oh | But | II | ! |
DD: thats not the way its meant to be read and really i think youre extrapolating an awful lot from that scene!
RS: | It's not about |- NEEDING -| to Watch Them throughout the Day |
RS: | It is a Testament to the Strength of His Pity | that He would Choose to Do So |
DD: its about the dedication it takes to
DD: yes!
DD: he loves them!
SA: we found someone more idealistic than me
RS: | It's Really Quite Romantic |
sA: I am so pleased
II: ...It sounds like a frank waste of time and like he doesn't trust them.
II: Which is incredibly troubling.
ID: seems fucking intrusive and creepy to me.
DD: really! DD: you lot are making an awful lot of assumptions about the nature of a relationship especially you II given you havent even read the novel!
RS: | Haha | Well | RS: | Passion often Does Seem Unsettling to the Less Romantic of Us | =:P |
II: At this point I don't think I need to.
II: I am quite romantic!
II: But I think I have rather...different ideals.
ID: i mean i guess, sure. =:P
DD: well i for one would love to have a matesprit that shows that sort of passion and dedication
II: To me, respecting my quadrants' privacy seems a lot more romantic.
SA:I find most of twilights actions to e infantilizing their lover
SA: they cannot possibly help themselves and so forth
RS: | Well | I Mean | RS: | Matespritship is All About Pity | In Reality | to Have Someone fully Manifest the Depths of Those Emotions might be a Bit Overwhelming | RS: | But | In a Story | There is Something Very Touching about the Idea that Someone would be so Over-whelmed by the Pitiableness of their Partner |
DD: have you ever read a pity romance novel sa???
RS: | That They would do Anything for Them |
DD: the point is the pity
RS: | Even Stay Awake all Day | to Watch Them While They Sleep | RS: | Or While They Work | RS: | Admittedly | The Watching Them while He was Meant to be Away was a Bit Excessive |
II: ...if they would do anything for them, why not _show_ them performing some daring act. It sounds like proposing that a law is sound because of its intensity, and not actually trying to prove it based on evidence of its effectiveness.
SA: pitying someone is different form thinking of them as an invalid
RS: | But | He was Feeling Lovelorn | Wasn't That Right | DD | ? |
DD: its not a reflection of the respective relationship members capabilities but rather the depths of the pity they feel for one another
RS: | Oh | He Does | ! |
DD: well they do that too ii!!
II: What happened to showing pity through gifts or affection. My goodness.
SA: if someone treated me that way I would remove them
DD: you all strike me as rather unromantic sorts i am afraid
II: Nonsense!
DD: aside from rs of course
SA: he constantly interferes in her business and then acts like she can't be helped when another individual "enters his turf"
II: On one of my dates, the lovely girl I was accompanied by presented me with a very charming wildlife specimen.
II: It was incredibly sweet!
RS: | Ah | But | Prisma | RS: | What Makes It so Romantic is the Fact She Regularly Offers up the Opportunity for Him to Do So |
RS: | It is a Reciprocated Pity |
DD: alternative interpretation! DD: he helps them when they are struggling and goes out of his way to prove his loyalty in the face of pushy competitors!
RS: | Otherwise | Why | It would Just be Alarming |
DD: and yes also what rs said!
II: But it was of her own volition and not some sort of...I don't even know what to call this, from what I hear about it, some sort of bizarrely compelled dysfunction?
DD: whatever do you mean??
SA: but she wanted nothing to do with him multiple times...
DD: of course the relationship was of both participatnts volitions DD: and sa really if somebody wants nothing to do with another person who is if you recall warning her away then would she really continue returning to him?
DD: this is what i mean by unromantic! DD: its as though you have never flirted before
II: ...this sounds like remarkably inconsistent behavior. Perhaps she is unwell.
DD: what??
DD: its playing hard to get
SA: it sounds like someone who has been entrapped and is completely dependent on their lover
II: That sounds ridiculous.
SA: due to abuse
DD: and showing that despite what you may say at times you are deeply invested in a relationship
DD: what
SA: 😡
II: If you want to be with someone, why would you dance around the issue?
DD: in what way is she entrapped and dependent???????????
II: And pretend otherwise?
DD: because you dont want to look desperate!!
II: It is not desperate to want to be with someone...?
SA: she told him to leave and he came back and got her repeatedly
SA: some people aren't playing hard to get they want to e left alone
II: Indeed, SA is right.
DD: yes and then he left and told her not to follow and she went after him anyways and its called being there for each other
SA: but hard to get is a convenient excuse to keep pursuing them beyond their comfort
II: ...that sounds like ignoring consent, to me.
DD: they save each other many times in this way!!
DD: and you still didnt answer about your entrapment comment!!!!!!!!!!!!!
SA: if a friend followed me when I told them not to follow I would be upset because it would have jeopardized them
RS: | Oh | Some People Are just Keen to be Left Alone | And That is an Important Thing to Know | But | RS: | You |- DON'T -| want to Look Desperate |
SA: and I clearly was handling it
RS: | That is a Valid Way to Feel | Prisma | But | Oh | Consider | If | Hmm |
II: Certainly, there are times when a moirail or ashen leaf might know better for their partners, but even then, such things ought to be discussed consensually.
RS: | | Someone Says Not to Follow Them | And Then | You Do Not | RS: | And You Discover They have been Greviously Injured | in a Way that Could've been Prevented If Only You had Followed Them |
RS: | Also | They Are Your Matesprit |
II: And particularly in a red(?) relationship, as I assume this to be, it is extremely uncouth to interfere with your partner so.
II: ...that is called life. You can't always be with your matesprit, that would make the relationship hugely uncomfortable. You have to trust them.
ID: okay from what i'm reading this edward is really possessive.
RS: | Mm | ! | But Wouldn't You Wonder | If They had been Saying Do Not Follow Them | RS: | Simply to Look More Pitiable to You | ? |
RS: | Flushed Romance is Mirror to Pale Romance |
RS: | And That is a Classic Trope |
DD: also additionally i think you are greatly overexaggerating her desire to be left alone! DD: she never tells him to leave multiple times she is like maybe kind of miffed one time and then is always very happy to have him present! DD: you are all talking so much about how clearly she wants to be left alone and hates him and are ignoring the fact that its written from her point of view when it is made very clear that she is deeply in love and adores having him around and thinks about him all the time
ID: does the bellae character have other quads?
RS: | She Eventually Becomes Pitch with the Dayshifter |
II: ...if someone told me to not follow them, I would assume they were thinking clearly and not like a cheaply written romance novel.
RS: | After a Long Period of Attempted Red Courtship | in Which She is Torn Between Him and Edward |
ID: and how does. edward react to the blossoming black relationship?
DD: yes except he followed her because his psionic clademember warned him she was in danger not beause he was just randomly following her!!!!
DD: and then he saved her life!!
DD: because he loves her!!
RS: | Oh | He doesn't Care | Why Would He | ? | It's not His Quadrant | RS: | I mean | Eventually | Jakobe does Become Matesprits with Her Descendent Instead | In an Unexpected Twist | RS: | And They are All Three Fully Aware This is what Will Happen |
DD: also for people that are very concerned with the potential lack of consent in this relationship you are doing an awful lot of ignoring of bellaes feelings and all the times she makes it very clear she loves and appreciates edward!
SA: no because I like to believe the people I surround myself with would be willing to tell me the truth of their situation and not trying to pity flirt with me
II: ...did she ASK the psiionic clademember to keep an eye on her.
RS: | So Being Jealous would be Silly |
ID: ...what.
RS: | II | You should Read the Book | ! |
RS: | The Books |
II: ...seconding the what.
RS: | Or | Well | No | That would Take Ages | And I Am Sure You are Very Busy |
RS: | Watch the Films | ! | =:B |
SA: what to what
II: I'm sorry, still a bit hung up over the _descendant_ part. Is Bellae rust?
ID: darn. my lack of speakers would make a movie hard. what a shame.
II: Otherwise how would she have had a descendant around so quickly...
ID: is she? man i'm sick of the simpering rust tropes.
RS: | Bellae is Jade | It is Hard to Realise at Some Points | Given That She Hates the Sunlight |
RS: | But That is How She is Able to be Turned into a Rainbowdrinker in the Last Book |
RS: | You can't Turn a Rust into a Drinker |
RS: | That would be Silly | =:B |
ID: haaah.
II: I didn't know that, Pheres.
II: But how ridiculous.
II: That sounds _full_ of plot holes, if nothing else.
DD: well thats an easy criticism to levy at any work of popular media and honestly at this point it feels like you are just attacking this particular work by making wild assumptions about how and why things in it happened without having read the book
DD: and its kind of hurtful!
DD: and i fell like ive gotten into a mess in terms of first impressions 😦
DD: i dont remember the last time ive felt this unfriendly!
SA: my head hurts.
DD: that is unfortunate have you considered taking any painkillers??
ID: go nap pris.
RS: | Oh | II | I am Afraid We are not Writers | =:( | RS: | So | Ah | It would be Better For You to See For Yourself |
RS: | Or | Read the Summaries Online | ! |
II: ...DD, how experienced are you with chatrooms?
RS: | It is Much Less Alarming than You are Reading It As |
DD: additionally i have heard that certain herbal sinus cleanses and some magnetic treatments work wonders
ID: if you need one. you're at the hotel and all.
DD: and i am not very experienced with chatroom unfortunately ii! DD: why????? that is a very foreboding statement!
II: Ah, well. This sort of thing isn't uncommon. You will often find people who disagree with you, I'm afraid. It isn't personal, usually.
SA: I have to get my things to the station
SA: no, I get headaches for other reasons, DD
SA: anyways
ID: yeah in chatrooms there's no consequences for speaking your mind so. get used to arguments dd.
II: I didn't mean any offense against you. I simply don't like the sound of these narratives.
DD: well then you should maybe read them like rs said i think you have gotten a very misrepresented idea of what the story actually entails!
DD: but oh my goodness im not sure if having bad relationships with people is necessarily the same thing as no consequences!
DD: i would much rather be on good terms with people DD: i suppose i just became quite flustered in this particular case because i have really admired the twilight series for quite a while
II: Bad relationships? I don't think any less of you.
DD: ive always thought it would be very nice to have a matesprit like edward!
II: You just like something different.
DD: and oh in that case i am very happy to hear that
SA: I do primarily because I don't like being called edgy and suspicious
SA: otherwise I don't care
ID: yeah arguments on the chatroom mean little if you don't let them.
DD: in my experience disagreement particularly of the degree of vehemence i achieved breeds dislike so i am glad it did not in this case DD: and in that case sa you have my sincerest apologies!!
DD: i did not mean to be hurtful and simply intended to make a friendly joke but i see now that it was ill aimed and i will refrain from calling you those things in the future!
II: Vehemence? I don't think anyone here felt truly vehement.
RS: | It could be Worse | DD | RS: | You could have Wished for a Matesprit like Jakobe | =:B |
DD: hahaha that is true!
ID: what's wrong with jakobe.
SA: thank you
ID: other than his. flushness for descendants?
DD: well for one thing his propensity for property destruction
DD: and that
DD: also that
DD: well
SA: so everything
DD: i mean it wasnt quite like that
SA: 😄
DD: but really he was being awfully pushy in light of bellaes clear dedication and love to edward!
DD: hes not a particularly awful sort but really he had no right to be placing bellae into that position
ID: i thought someone said she was undecided between them. or was that earlier.
RS: | He is a Skinshifter | Who Lives Out in the Woods | and was Especially Keen to Court Her Quadrant | RS: | Despite Her Clear Affection for Edward | I mean | It is Understandable | in a Certain Light | that She was Tempted Enough to be Curious | ? |
DD: especially while she was mourning the supposed death of her last quadrant!
DD: she was not thinking straight!!
ID: all i'm getting out of this is that this girl wanted to pail mythical creatures. =:I
RS: | Who wouldn't Be | ? | But It is Unkind to Encourage Someone to Pursue That Curiousity | ! |
RS: | Hahaha | Oh | Heavens |
RS: | This is a Perfectly Suitable Book for All Ages | RS: | There is No Fornication | Hadean |
ID: oh okay.
RS: | For Heaven's Sake | It is About |- ROMANCE -| =:P |
DD: well yes id that is part of the allure isnt it?? DD: though with um maybe less coarse language DD: they only kissed in the books!
DD: and yes they ARE romance novels
ID: hey.
ID: 50 shades is supposed to be about romance isn't it.
RS: | Hahaha |- NO -|
RS: | That is a Vicious Lie |
DD: i was under the impression it was meant to be about pailing!
RS: | Exactly | ! |
SA: kink 101 at clown university
II: ...I'm very glad - what
RS: | | | Um |
DD: at least DD: it was DD: after i realized what it was actually about
RS: | Oh My |
DD: 😦
II: I'm sorry, _what_ .
RS: | I would Like to Unenroll From that Class |
DD: um!!!
ID: pris i swear you need to stop bringing that up at the weirdest times.
SA: it applied to fifty shades
II: ...as an honorary church member I suddenly feel rather uncomfortable.
SA: believe me I pick and choose when I say it.
DD: is there a not weird time to bring up something like that???
RS: | I | I don't Think It Does | ? |
DD: because that just seems weird overall!!!
RS: | I do Wonder |
SA: the entirety of fifty shades is poorly constructed relationships around a poor execution of a fetish...
ID: ...ket's switch to the other drinker. lestat.
ID: he looks like a tool.
RS: | Oh | He doesn't | ! |
DD: im afraid i dont know about that one!
DD: oh!
DD: oh goodness
DD: no he looks really very dashing
DD: his hair is lovely ❤
ID: the google images all have him looking like he's trying too hard to seem mysterious and dashing.
RS has attached LESTATISNOBLE.jpeg to the chat!
RS: | Look at That |
RS: | He's not |- TRYING -|
DD: ❤ ❤ ❤ ❤
ID: his nose is crooked.
DD: it adds character!
RS: | Yes | Isn't It Dashing | ? | It is a Careful Character Flaw | ! |
ID: oh okay so he wasn't recently hit in the face.
II: Mm. He is all right, I suppose.
RS: | It Shows He is Capable of Violence | Yet | Also Capable of Weakness | RS: | Of Being Made Vulnerable by a Greater Foe | ! |
RS: | Also Known As | Deeply Pitiable | =:P |
DD: +^+
ID: hahah he gets wrecked by the other rainbowdrinkers?
DD: oh dear! DD: im certain he doesnt but really even if he does DD: i would find tending to his wounds very agreeable ❤
ID: i like the other rainbowdrinker better of the two.
RS: | Haha | He Does gets Wrecked | If You would Like to Use those Terms | RS: | He is Almost Murdered by His Matesprit at One Point |
RS: | And Fights Frequently with the Rest |
RS: | But It is the Way of Rainbowdrinkers |
RS: | Unfortunately | ! |
ID: i mean if you say so, i bow to your mastery of rainbowdrinkers. =:P
RS: | Haha | I don't Know If I'd call It Mastery | RS: | I've only Ever Read Those Two Series | ! | RS: | Clearly | DD is the True Master of Rainbowdrinkers | Given His | Her | ? | Wide Range of Knowledge | =:B |
DD: !!!
DD: i mean!!
DD: i wouldnt say that DD: i am just very fond of romance novels haha
DD: and the supernatural ones are just
DD: they are even better!!
ID: why are they better?
DD: because they add twist to the dynamics! DD: they tend to be more tragic and dramatic and romantic
ID: i don't get the appeal of a quad that'll eat you.
II: I admit I feel similarly.
RS: | Well | How is a Quadrant Who Could Drink Your Blood | really Any Different from a Normal Quadrant | ? |
II: Ah, by _quite a lot?_
DD: well thats the point isnt it! DD: that they are so dedicated to you the thought would never cross their mind DD: or if it does it is an example of their great love for you that they dedicate their strength and fortitude towards overcoming such desires so that they might be with you because their love is so much more to them!
DD: and yes really its not as though the average troll could not simply kill you as well
II: I wouldn't want a potential quadrant to view me as a meal, thank you.
RS: | Anyone could Cull You | If You let Them in Near Enough | RS: | You just have to Ensure There is Enough Incentive Not To | RS: | Or Else | That They Care About You Sufficiently | that They would Never Dream of It | ! |
DD: and drink your blood i suppose if they were so inclined though i think that would be
DD: weird
RS: | And | Unhygeniec | =:) |
II: Just a _tad_.
ID: i mean most trolls don't have to cull to survive.
ID: like. literally survive off of eating trolls.
RS: | Yes | Most Trolls just Cull for Fun | which is Rather Worse | If You Ask Me |
II: I cull for my job! But usually I am culling trolls who are dangers to others, or who are causing different types of harm by going against Imperial law.
II: I would not cull wantonly; terrible discipline.
ID: that sounds... fun ii.
II: Well, I am a legislacerator!
II: It is my purpose.
ID: huh. neat.
DD: oh my goodness this conversation took a little bit of a dark turn DD: i apologize i was absent because i was looking for more pictures of lestat DD: i wish my hair was that long it looks looooovely DD: but unfortunately both my hair and my horns have recently found themselves quite short!! DD: im afraid my countenance will never recover DD: but! regardless! i do think i rather agree with rs!
II: A dark turn? Not really.
ID: long hair is the best hair, it's true.
II: Long hair is very lovely! I unfortunately would find it inconvenient, though.
II: Too potentially dangerous for my job.
DD: its also rather cumbersome underwater and our lovely sovereigns ability to manage such wondrous locks as hers is impressive as well as beautiful!
ID: braids help everything.
DD: unfortunately i have recently burned off the majority of mine and it is now styled into quite a short cut!
II: A braid is still an opportunity for an enemy to grab it, though, unfortunately, or for it to get caught.
ID: yeah, you gotta not have too sensitive a scalp. Also braid spikes.
II: Braid spikes?
ID: spikes you braid in to the hair.
II: How fascinating!
II: I have never seen such a thing.
II: It sounds potentially useful, but also possibly injurious to the user.
ID: i mean. i make mine with psi when i do it. but i'm sureee they exist in a metal form. maybe.
II: Hm!
II: Still an intriguing concept.
