[09:18] FG: hell✪. i must say. i am surprised that y✪u are ch✪✪sing t✪ c✪ntact me ✪f y✪ur ✪wn free will. the way things were left ✪ff i'd have figured we w✪uld never speak again.

[09:19] OS: ∂{on't think s{o l{owly {oƒ µe¸ {oƒ c{ourse we w{oul∂

[09:19] OS: iƒ they g{o thr{ough with it that is¸

[09:19] OS: it is a absur∂ly ba∂ i∂ea¸¸¸¸¸¸

[09:20] FG: i believe s✪ t✪✪. but if it happens. it happens. there's n✪ use in fighting fate.

[09:22] OS: i ∂{on't think ƒate is s{o uniƒacete∂ i µean

[09:22] OS: we ∂{o have ƒree will¸ ∂{o we n{ot?

[09:22] OS: {or ∂{o y{ou believe we are s{o b{oun∂ by the intangible ƒ{orces {oƒ the universe there is n{o way t{o escape?

[09:22] OS: i ∂{on't kn{ow the truth {on that stateµent¸ but it is a respectable {one

[09:28] OS: ∂{o y{ou think {otherwise?

[09:29] FG: i d✪ believe that we have c✪ntr✪l ✪ver the events that take place in ✪ur lives. t✪ an extent.

[09:30] OS: yes¸ that is s{oµething i c{oul∂ agree t{o

[09:30] OS: there is a certain aµ{ount {oƒ ƒate that is pre∂estine∂ ƒr{oµ y{our hatchright¸ unƒ{ortunately

[09:30] OS: an∂ i believe that ƒates can blee∂ int{o each {other?

[09:31] OS: what we ∂{o can iµpact {others iµµensely?

[09:31] OS: which is why even iƒ we are in the µin{ority¸ we still µay play this gaµe

[09:31] OS: ƒ{or {our ƒrien∂s

[09:34] FG: well. whatever the case may be. i still must w✪nder if playing this game will change things f✪r the better. ✪r w✪rse.

[09:35] FG: we hardly kn✪w anything ab✪ut it. ✪ther than what is ✪bvi✪us. which is that it is. in fact. a game.

[09:35] FG: i think ✪f that we can be m✪st certain.

[09:35] FG: ehehe.

[09:37] OS: i ∂{on't see in what case it w{oul∂ µake things better

[09:37] OS: because in a gaµe¸ there is always l{oss

[09:37] OS: an∂ with a gaµe with stakes this high¸ l{oss is alµ{ost inevitable

[09:38] OS: there w{oul∂ be n{o purp{ose in creating a gaµe that w{oul∂ be easy t{o win

[09:38] OS: the plight {oƒ µany is intrinsitc t{o c{oµpetiti{on¸ that is the appeal {oƒ it

[09:40] FG: y✪u make it s✪und alm✪st as if. there is n✪ p✪int in winning.

[09:41] OS: there is a p{oint in winning¸ winning is gratiƒying

[09:41] OS: an∂ thr{ough the l{oss {oƒ {others {our {own unc{onsci{ous gets b{o{oste∂

[09:41] OS: s{o yes¸ there is an iµµe∂iate gain

[09:45] FG: w✪w.

[02:39] GR: i don't see how that would make herRR feel any betterRR

[02:41] FG: i'm sure she w✪uld appreciate the gesture. but at the same time. it'll be hard f✪r her t✪ live if she's in a c✪nstant state ✪f fear.

[02:42] FG: i'm g✪✪d with feelings.

[02:42] GR: i think she's morRRe scarRRed of otherRR highbloods

[02:42] GR: i mean all those goddamn bluebloods

[02:42] GR: arRRe always thinkin a the most crRReative ways to kill eachotherRR

[02:42] GR: that's why i'm glad i'm a fuckin' peasant

[02:42] GR: at least things arRRe strRRaight forRRwarRRd

[02:43] FG: yes. i've heard that they're all quite diab✪lical. but i w✪uldn't kn✪w f✪r sure. i was rather adept at keeping myself cut ✪ff fr✪m s✪ciety.

[02:44] GR: i think i got ya beat therRRe bud

[02:45] FG: ✪h? h✪w s✪?

[02:45] GR: Well I mean, I'm a completely efishent spy rRRight

[02:45] GR: I'm off the grRRid

[02:45] GR: GoverRRnment don't know I exist

[02:45] GR: Cause my hive got destrRRoyed by rRRocks 'n blah blah blah everRR since then I been nomadic

[02:46] GR: Livin' the bohemian life you get it?

[02:46] FG: i feel y✪u. i wish i w✪uld have been s✪ lucky t✪ lead a life like that. it s✪unds like it's great.

[02:47] FG: i was never all✪wed t✪ leave my hive. s✪ i didn't experience much ✪f the w✪rld. besides what was written in the b✪✪ks my lusus br✪ught me.

[02:47] GR: that sounds horRRrRRible

[02:47] GR: like

[02:47] GR: rRReally fuckin horRRrRRible

[02:47] GR: I could neverRR do that

[02:47] GR: bein trRRapped somewherRRe

[02:47] GR: the thought makes my skin crRRawl!

[02:47] FG: haha.

[02:47] FG: it was all i ever knew s✪ it didn't b✪ther me t✪✪ much. while i was still alive.

[02:48] FG: i was always t✪ld that staying within the hive was necessary t✪ my survival. h✪w ir✪nic that i died within my ✪wn safeh✪use.

[02:50] GR: how'd ya kick the bucket

[02:52] FG: my l✪cati✪n was eventually f✪und by the highbl✪✪ds. they set my hive ablaze and left me t✪ burn. but it was the sm✪ke that killed me. since i was sleeping in my chambers i didn't have en✪ugh time t✪ react. apparently ✪wlm✪m was able t✪ put ✪ut the flames but by then the damage had already been d✪ne.

[02:52] GR: fucking highbloods

[02:52] GR: i'd be an angrRRy ghost if I was you

[02:52] GR: haunt the fuck out of em

[02:54] FG: i was. at first. but in the beginning i was a weak gh✪st. and i wasn't able t✪ d✪ much. sure. i c✪uld m✪ve a table maybe a few inches t✪ the left. make them scrape their knees ✪n the edges ✪r s✪mething. but i c✪uldn't d✪ anything drastic like i wanted t✪.

[02:55] GR: hmph, well if any highbloods trRRy somethin' like that again

[02:55] GR: i'll turRRn 'em into hamburRRgerRR

[02:56] FG: hehehe. and i've g✪t y✪ur back. we'll make them regret their decisi✪ns.

[03:00] GR: I don't like fuckerRRs goin' arRRound thinkin' they can just bully people

[03:00] GR: Without any consyquences

[03:02] FG: yes. i agree with y✪u c✪mpletely. h✪pefully there isn't as much ✪f that in this day and age.

[03:03] GR: well i ain't neverRR seen anything but everRRytime I pass thrRRough the cities it looks prRRetty rRRough

[03:03] GR: I wouldn't live therRRe forRR anything

[03:05] FG: me neither. i'm perfectly fine with haunting my ✪wn hive. thank y✪u.

[03:06] GR: I dunno how elyseo's surRRvived this long honestly

[03:06] GR: I mean I love the kid

[03:06] GR: He's cute as a fuckin' button

[03:06] GR: But his daddy ain't gave him no sense orRR no muscles

[03:07] GR: I guess thyrRRea must be prRRetty tough ferRR both of em

[03:11] FG: ✪r at least has the mindp✪wer. i haven't had the chance t✪ speak with her yet s✪ i can't be t✪✪ sure. but if highbl✪✪d life's anything like it used t✪ be. i d✪n't think elyse✪ w✪uld have a chance. with✪ut having s✪me s✪rt ✪f guardian watching ✪ver him.

[03:12] GR: yeah i mean

[03:12] GR: I don't think she likes me too much ferRR whateverRR rRReason but i'm glad she's therRRe ferRR him

[03:13] FG: indeed. perhaps he'll wisen up ✪ne ✪f these days. but i d✪n't think that's what fate has in st✪re f✪r him t✪day.

[03:15] GR: Eh whateerRR

[03:15] GR: I like him the way he is

[03:15] GR: besides you don't need to be strRRong when you got strRRong frRRiends rRRight

[03:16] FG: i supp✪se y✪u've g✪t a p✪int there.

[03:21] GR: wow this converRRsation got heavy fast

[03:21] GR: I guess that's my doin'

[03:21] GR: SorRRrRRy babe

[03:24] FG: n✪. it's fine. i've just always had t✪ depend ✪n my strength. s✪ the idea ✪f weak being ✪kay is still s✪mewhat fresh in my mind haha. but i see what y✪u mean. s✪ n✪. it's n✪t a pr✪blem at all. i sh✪uld thank y✪u f✪r expanding my perspective. wh✪ said an ✪ld w✪✪fbeast can't learn new tricks. i'm dead and i'm learning m✪re things than when i had a wh✪le library at my disp✪sal. ✪h✪h✪h✪.

[03:25] GR: look you don't have to act like you'rRRe okay when you ain't okay

[03:25] GR: i ain't the type to judge

[03:25] GR: unless you happen tobe pietrRRo

[03:25] GR: then i'm judging the fuck outta you

[03:25] FG: pfffft.

[03:26] GR: well anyway, you can considerRR me a frRRiend if you want

[03:26] GR: a new frRRiend who you may orRR may not like orRR whateverRR, but still a frRRiend

[03:28] FG: that w✪uld. be nice.

[03:28] FG: i w✪uld like t✪ have a friend.

[03:36] GR: I didn't know you werRRe supposed to be unfeeling. I thought that was kind all that would be left.

[03:36] GR: Huh.

[03:36] GR: I ain't too educated about ghosties orRR nothin tho
