huh

so do you enjoy life i knoww thats a broad question but i mean like are you afraid to leavve your house or stand up against govvernment 

i basically just mean are you happy wwith the wway things are in your society

[transientimpulse-blog]

in my part of the world?

things could definitely be better, but comparatively speaking, yes, i would say i’m happy with the way things are for us. i’m not afraid to leave my house unless it’s dark. i’m not afraid to stand up against government as long as i’m in a group. law enforcement, i feel, is a separate beast, and yes, i would say i’m scared of that.

but overall things are okay.

[exasperated-protector-blog]

so

you dont havve like a specific type a people rulin over the rest and your place in society doesnt depend on the color a your blood

and no death huh sounds better than wwhat wwe havve goin on here

but yeah im followwin

[transientimpulse-blog]

no, we don’t have that.

humans don’t have different blood colours; we all bleed red. humans have different skin colours and other racial differences, which have created discrimination and oppression sort of akin to trolls’ hemoism, but all and all our societies are slowly recovering from that. it’s not nearly as bad.

we still have death, but outside of wars, people don’t generally go around killing one another. you get in trouble for that.

F0r me all 0f it is new - I was 0nly created in 0ct0ber, s0 I have n0t yet had time t0 f0rm n0stalgia 0ver anything.

Perhaps y0u w0uld be interested in watching s0me with me s0metime? Y0u c0uld sh0w me the 0nes wh0 have the m0st f0nd mem0ries f0r.

[transientimpulse-blog]

sure. we can do that.

i’m curious if you will find it natural, once you’re older, to develop nostalgia at all. i hope that doesn’t come across as offensive. i would be curious to hear how it goes for you.

[exasperated-protector-blog]

yeah i can understand that different envvironments lead to different strengths and wweaknesses

wwell youre my vvery first nontroll interaction do you mind maybe tellin me more about your culture cause im actually really curious

[transientimpulse-blog]

sure!

if you have anything specific you’re interested in, feel free to mention it; otherwise i’ll just wing this.

i guess the easiest place to start is that there’s no centralized government for the whole species. personally, the section of the world that i live in functions as a democratic republic, meaning our leaders are elected by the general population every four years.

individuality and freedom in this part of the world are both highly regarded. safety is enforced, more or less. humans don’t like death very much, at least on a real-world level. you can get in big trouble for hurting someone else regardless of who it is or who you are.

uh.

we don’t have quadrants. the average human doesn’t really have ‘enemies’ so blackrom is completely unheard of outside of fiction, in which case it’s never addressed as such and rarely comes to fruition. our romantic relationships are most closely analogous with matespritship and moirallegiance combined. it’s most typical for a human to have only one romantic partner.

uhhh. following so far?

[exasperated-protector-blog]

huh

sounds interestin  must take a lot a brain to become the apex predator wwithout the clawws and strength and shit not that im sayin humans are smarter than trolls or trolls or smarter than humans cause im pretty sure that kind a differs betwween each indivvidual but

you knoww im sayin you probably had to think out more of your survvivval to make tools and such

so are you a human

[transientimpulse-blog]

i guess.

fortunately, to my understanding, the animals humans have had to survive against -- back when that was actually a problem -- are not quite as harsh as those trolls have had to.

also, we don’t have to deal with whatever the fuck lives in the water. so that’s good too.

i get what you’re saying though, definitely.

and yeah, i’m human.

[crabbymechanic-archive]

My fav0rite sh0w is Magica Mad0ka, but I have als0 seen S0ul Eater, Full Metal Alchemist, and Drag0n Ball. 

What ab0ut y0u? D0 y0u enj0y anime at all?

[transientimpulse-blog]

sure, a little.

i was more into it when i was younger. i don’t really seek it out anymore but i’ll watch it if it’s on.

i’m mostly just nostalgic over old stuff; it’s hard to get into the new.

[knightly-paradox]

now thats just down right stereotypical 

the proper term we use here is texan or southern 

red neck trash 

blue collar 

actually no cowboy is pretty common too ill need to teach you this crappy slang so dearly held to my american heart 

first well start with yall 

and windows are more commonly known as winders 

wrestling = rasslin

[transientimpulse-blog]

i already know all about y’all, but good effort.

we’ve got cowboys here too, you know. just not quite as pervasive. hidden in all the city slickers.

(of which i am one, but we will pretend i’m not, and i’ll blend right in.)

(maybe.)

[knightly-paradox]

even better thats a deal 

youll give me a hella bromo cheek kiss and ill saddle up to carry you ‘round town 

show you the reins of texas 

giddy up type shit 

[transientimpulse-blog]

perfecto.

i can get all into the cowboy persona; it’ll be great.

yee haw and all that.

[exasperated-protector-blog]

human i havve no idea wwhat that is

is it some kind a neww species of troll or like im not tryin to be rude i just genuinely havve no idea wwhat a human is

[transientimpulse-blog]

ah. hm.

well.

a human is like a troll, but squishy and mammalian. we are still troll-shaped, but we tend to be smaller, with more fat (on average) and less muscle (on average), comparatively. we are still apex predators, but more because of tools than claws and fangs. troll teeth are significantly sharper than human teeth, claws too, and humans also have softer skin, and no horns.

but otherwise, yeah, kinda like a troll.

[crabbymechanic-archive]

I am tw0 0f th0se things. 

My interests are. Hm.

I enj0y. Japanese Animati0ns. And c0llecting figurines 0f characters?

[transientimpulse-blog]

oh, that’s cool.

what shows do you like?

[knightly-paradox]

grace be blessed 

do i get a ceremony with robes and holy figurines in the background while this is going on

gaundhi a fist bump from the pope

a subtle nod from snoop dog that ive been forgiven by a gracious being 

a re-slip of my power ball ticket 

[transientimpulse-blog]

no.

but i might give you one (1) gay as fuck kiss on the cheek next time i see you

you may also be given the privilege of giving me a piggyback ride but that’s debatable.

[transientimpulse-blog]

too tired gotta bed talk to everyone more in the morning?

[exasperated-protector-blog]

is there a lot of bad media about robots i havvent seen any

[transientimpulse-blog]

yeah, it’s a pretty prevalent human fear.

computers have a lot of power over our lives, and when combined with the exploitation of the ‘uncanny valley’ factor in not only appearance but emotional/societal behaviour, it can make for a pretty scary concept.

not to mention privacy concerns making people worried about even unintelligent computers.

[knightly-paradox]

woah hey mostly i was assuring it wasnt horrifying with screeching death but nah dont watch it im feeling you there on any visual contact does not dip you in a chocolate happy land 

i kind of forgot to emphasize that watching it isnt a thing you have to do massive soz from mama roo 

no please keep talking to me  (you second this) 

[transientimpulse-blog]

you don’t deserve my company

but

because i am a gracious and forgiving child, i will continue to give it to you anyway. you should feel so honoured.

[crabbymechanic-archive]

I MEANT JUST IN GENERAL, N0T NECESSARILY IN PERS0N. I SAW Y0U TALKING AB0UT R0B0TS AND IT G0T ME THINKING. LET ME GRAB HIM –

Hell0. It is a pleasure t0 meet y0u.

[transientimpulse-blog]

oh. hello.

i’m tiri. it’s a pleasure.

i like electronics and aliens and also cards sometimes. what are your interests?

[exasperated-protector-blog]

yeah it could be if done right

[transientimpulse-blog]

well obviously. there needs to be strict adherence to the three laws of robotics, and a lot of careful prototyping would have to be done.

but there’s so much media about that shit going wrong that it’s hard to imagine any competent engineer could mess up too badly.

[knightly-paradox]

no no its cool i mean spoiler but its not a scary video in fact its so fucking hilariously bad okay bonnie does a guitar solo at the end but its basically just a sad robotical bunny singing the song i mumble every time i fuck up

which i was doing a lot during the second game so i nearly broke a dam with how much i was holding back tears when watching this piece of gold 

and oh yeah no the third game is my next mission once i beat these two on pc even though ive sorta kinda cheated ive already been on and off playing the fourth game for months

woah how are we even on this subject 

[transientimpulse-blog]

i feel like you just don’t understand how any association with those characters spooks the hell out of me. i’m deep in the fear pit, my friend. it is not a fun pit.

also you’re a filthy cheater i can’t believe you skipped

i can’t even

i can’t talk to you anymore.

(also you started this.)
