?lay a ?retend game with me...


-- plotHooked [PH] began pestering facetiousAnimus [FA] at 3:41 -- 

PH: Why, helllllo 
PH: Are you there? Or am I once again s?eaking in vain? 
PH: Ezreki? 
PH: ... Hmmm ... 
PH: >:P I'll leave you a ... 
PH: ... ?resent, then 
PH: As the deluge of unassuming beige sluiced in a torrid torrent of rushing blood from the gaping hole where Octavi Bonjou's head once was and wept across the floor sweepingly catching reflections of the Ominous candles Then and only then did The Protaganist as he called himself look up from his Greatest cull 
PH: Who was Octavi? No longer Auspistice. Octavi sought to keep him from his foe, sought to force him into a quadrant of desires deferred and for that he had to die, although ?erha?s later he might miss the beigeblood's wellmeaning snarls, his ... saucy impudence. The Protaganist smiles manlily, sweeping locks of purest darkness out of his eyes where theyd fallen because! He said, 
PH: "Salamanderdad. I know your there." 
PH: His tone was extreeeeeeeeeeeeeeeemely menacing, this time there would be no ... hoo?s! Not today! Not ever again!!! He swore it by the blood of his old FLAR?ing Foe which was starting to flow less deliciously. 
PH: Er, deliriously >:| 
PH: No, there would be no hoo?s at all, instead there would be ... the strangest of quadrants. 
PH: Because as the moon waxes bright green, the sight that would greet him would cause him to wax a shockingly dragon's eye RED, a red which would redefine the very word, redder than the sweet succulence of cherry juice dripping down a beloved's chin, redder than the sparkle of the rarest of death rubies, or the impudence of He Who Must Never Be Naaamed, so red. 
PH: The sight ... would be ... 
PH: Revealed in the next cha?ter. >:D 
PH: ?S: Octavi doesn't like it. >:)

PH: DEAREST Ezreki. 
PH: I am. 
PH: ?ER?LEXED. 
PH: no. 
PH: ?erha?s not ?er?lexed at all 
PH: ?erha?s only, instead, 
PH: ho?eful that you will take these articles of fiction 
PH: and from them take im?ortant lessons!!!!! 
PH: >;P 
FA: > I SEE. -->
FA: > and what -->
FA: > IMPORTANT -->
FA: > lesson would you TEACH with these? -->
PH: You know, Ezreki 
PH: I feel as if ... 
PH: ... you are ... 
PH: avoiding!?! 
PH: the real ?oint here. 
FA: > OH? -->
PH: MmmHmm 
FA: > which OF COURSE is... WHAT -->
PH: How absolutely and completely 
PH: even totally! 
PH: MORE than totally! VASTLY!!! 
PH: awesome that fic was >:D 
PH: You ...did LIKE it, didn't you? 
FA: > HAHA. -->
FA: > UHH -->
FA: > ofcourse. -->
FA: > in the -->
FA: > manner a SUBJECTIVE protagonist WOULD -->
FA: > BUT -->
FA: > I feel it WILL NOT make it to the FINAL CUT -->
FA: > yes. -->
FA: > that is to SAY -->
FA: > I DID NOT LIKE IT -->
FA: > but -->
FA: > I am LETTING YOU DOWN GENTLY -->
FA: > you SEE. -->
FA: > because OTHERWISE you'll write ANOTHER like the MUSCLEBEAST attrocity. -->
PH: Hmm 
PH: That makes me sorrow 
PH: I think 
FA: > oh DEAR -->
FA: > maybe you should APPEAL to the PLANNING DEPARTMENT -->
PH: I would rather a??eal to you. 
PH: What did you not like? 
FA: > I FEEL -->
FA: > the CHOSEN QUADRANT PLAY -->
FA: > was somewhat LACKING in ACCURACY -->
FA: > just -->
FA: > just a SMIDGEN. -->
FA: > by which I mean A LOT. -->
PH: Do you mean to tell me you are not ca?able 
PH: of fulfilling your duties 
PH: to the Mothergrub? To the Drones? 
FA: > WHILE I find such TASKS IRRELEVANT to my PURPOSE -->
FA: > no. -->
FA: > I FEEL that -->
FA: > PERHAPS -->
FA: > the CASTING was not CORRECT -->
FA: > I did like the BIT where I was KILLING things THOUGH -->
FA: > that was a GOOD bit. -->
PH: >:O 
FA: > and where I was MANLY -->
FA: > that was ALSO a GOOD BIT. -->
PH: But you and Octaaaaaavi and Yarkat Silfen were the best ever Ashen quadrant!!!!?!?!?!?!?!!?! 
PH: >;) The best ever as of this sweep, anyway 
PH: You really can't see it? 
PH: >:\ 
FA: > I OBVIOUSLY -->
FA: > can SEE where you're COMING FROM -->
FA: > however -->
FA: > the POINT you are MISSING here. -->
FA: > is that YARKAT is an IDIOT. -->
FA: > and not WORTHY of my HATE. -->
FA: > he LET his LUSUS EAT his FOOT -->
FA: > you CAN'T get much STUPIDER -->
PH: I sus?ect you didn't even read Chapter 4 !! 
FA: > I thought THIS was chapter 4. -->
PH: Yarkat is definitely too stu?id for your CALIGINOUS hate, really, I would neeeeeeever write your feelings THAT black in THAT direction 
PH: and that is why Octavi had to die 
PH: He was kee?ing you from fulfilling a totally ?latonic hatekill 
PH: With his mediation!!! 
PH: It was all against your will >:P 
FA: > I SEE. -->
FA: > even SO -->
PH: Shhhhhhhhhh 
PH: I'm not done! 
FA: > OH. -->
PH: D:< 
PH: >:) Thank you 
PH: As I was saying 
PH: It was alllll against your will 
PH: which, as you know, is so strong! 
PH: And that is why the sur?rise reveal in chapter SIX 
PH: is going to blow everything out of the water >:P 
FA: > OF COURSE. -->
FA: > well -->
FA: > I SUPPOSE if you MUST -->
FA: > continue -->
FA: > and we will SEE if CHAPTER SIX is TRUELY worth it. -->
FA: > I STILL do not BELIEVE it is WHAT they are LOOKING for THOUGH. -->
FA: > yes. -->
PH: It is ?erfectly fine if you do not like my fiction, Ezreki! 
PH: >;) I will use this fact ... 
PH: ... as ARMOUR, near impenetrable! 
PH: against your ?erfidious charm. 
FA: > I -->
FA: > UHH -->
FA: > no no -->
FA: > that would be UNFAIR as PROTAGONIST of ME -->
FA: > one must APPRECIATE the WORK his SECONDARY CHARACTERS do. -->
PH: Well, well, well! >;P 
PH: You wannnnnnt my armour to be thin? Are you ... 
PH: ... ?lotting ... 
PH: ... to betray me in some way???? For the sake of your story's drama quota?????? 
PH: Aaaaaare yooou? 
FA: > HAHA, NO. -->
PH: I DO NOT TRUST YOUR HAHAS TONIGHT 
FA: > I have PLENTY of FOOLISH TROLLS to do THAT to. -->
FA: > why would I WRITE OFF one of the BETTER CAST MEMBERS -->
PH: No. Charm Armour +19. 
FA: > I SEE. -->
FA: > this is BOTHERSOME. -->
FA: > is there NOTHING I can do to SWAY your CONCERNS? -->
FA: > it will be RATHER UPSETTING -->
FA: > to the UHH -->

FA: > that is -->
FA: > if you CEASE to PARLAY with ME. -->
FA: > how else shall I ride CROCOLUSUSES in a PROTAGONISTIC MANNER? -->

PH: All right, I think you MIGHT 
PH: ?ossibly 
PH: be up to the challenge 
PH: I am ready for you to make my faith ?erfect 
FA: > YES, I SEE. -->
PH: The game is 
PH: the ?retend game 
PH: is Arethusa Says 
PH: the rules are 
PH: as you might imagine 
PH: EXTREMELY sim?le 
PH: >:) 
PH: I say something, and you do your best to DO it 
PH: But of course you wouldn't fail at anything I suggested 
FA: > YES -->
FA: > OF COURSE -->
FA: > UNLESS THE TASK -->
FA: > was to FAIL -->
FA: > HAHAH. -->
PH: >:) Oh, I would never suggest THAT 
PH: That would be the dullest of all things 
PH: Unless the stakes were extremely high! 
PH: Hmm 
FA: > HEHEH -->
PH: But for now, I say this: ?retend that the READERS do NOT want to hear about themselves 
PH: in the story 
PH: when the ?rotaganist s?eaks 
PH: They do not want to hear themselves referenced ... 
PH: ... AT ALL. >:O 
PH: These are readers who seriously lack 
PH: in essential vanity >;P 
PH: And tell me... 
PH: ... honestly ... 
PH: Why I should tell you anything to hel? you lower the CHARM ARMOUR that I have been equi??ed with by an UNWITTING 
PH: critic. 
PH: >:P 
FA: > so just to CLARIFY -->
FA: > if I -->
FA: > REFERENCE THEM -->
FA: > I LOOSE -->
FA: > HMM -->
FA: > I uhh -->
FA: > BECAUSE -->
PH: Yes. That would make you my bitch, Ezreki. My little failbitch. >:) I'm sure you don't want to be my failbitch. 
FA: > NO. -->
FA: > not at ALL. -->
PH: They are not noted for their longevity. 
FA: > NO. -->
FA: > because.... -->
FA: > because we are FRIENDS? -->
FA: > or -->
FA: > maybe -->
FA: > something like that -->
PH: GAS? 
PH: !! 
PH: Wow. 
PH: I am ... 
PH: breathless at your heroic eloquence 
PH: I think I may need a moment to recover 
FA: > yes? -->
FA: > I believe I bought enough salts -->
FA: > you could use them -->
FA: > if you uhh -->
FA: > wanted -->
FA: > did I WIN -->
PH: >:O 
FA: > am I the WINNER -->
PH: AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAHAHAHA 
PH: Haaaaaaaaaaaaaaahahahahaahah! 
PH: Hee Hee!!!!!!?!?!?!?!! 
PH: ??!!HEE HEE!! 
FA: > I see -->
PH: The game isn't 
PH: 'Arethusa Says One Thing And Then Easy Wins For All' 
PH: The gaaaaaame 
FA: > I didn't -->
FA: > oh. -->
PH: is 'Arethusa Says' 
PH: Until she says it's not >:P 
FA: > oh ok. -->
FA: > I think I can WIN this -->
PH: >:\ 
PH: Sha?e up, Ezzy! We're entrenched in this bitch now! Look alive!! 
FA: > I am -->
FA: > alive -->
FA: > not at all DEAD -->
PH: >:D 
PH: ?retend that you are an ENTHUSIASTIC 
PH: connoisseur 
PH: of the SUBTLE 
PH: and ELEGANT 
PH: art of 'shipping 
PH: And suggest to me 
PH: A new ?lot to write about >:) 
FA: > uhhm -->
FA: > ok -->
PH: Who should I shi?, sir? 
FA: > I uhh -->

FA: > funny -->
FA: > because -->
FA: > they are very different bloods -->
FA: > and stuff -->
PH: I 
PH: um 
PH: that might be good! >:) 
PH: ?retend that you are not a might ?rotaganist at all 
FA: > that falls under the same catergory as FAILURE -->
FA: > surely -->
PH: ?retend that you are, in fact, a dastardly, villainous, vile, rakish, black-hearted pain in the ass of all who are ?rotaganist 
PH: ?retend that you are an antagonist 
PH: Your own antagonist, in fact 
FA: > uhm. -->
PH: And tell me the first thing you would do >:) 
FA: > I'm not sure that's such a good idea. -->
FA: > I think that might actually be quite a bad idea. -->
PH: Ooooohhhh? I grant you a brief re?rieve before I pronounce you a failure to ex?lain why >:( I don't want you to fail, Ezreki 
FA: > BECAUSE, you FOOLISH purpleblood, if I were to TRUELY become ANTAGONIST, I would SURELY EVICERATE you for this FOOLISHNESS, and take the REST of those PATHETIC EXCUSES for TROLLS who INDULGE in the PATHETIC EXCUSE for a PASSTIME that is FLARPing WITH you. -->
FA: > IN FACT -->
FA: > THAT would be a KINDNESS -->
FA: > PITY -->
FA: > I THINK INSTEAD I would HANG you ON the WALLS -->
FA: > by your BROKEN HORNS -->
FA: > and slowly BLEED you all DRY. -->
FA: > such is the ANTAGONISTIC WAY. -->
FA: > the world would BURN ONCE MORE at the hands of a NEW HARVESTER. -->
PH: Hmm. Not bad. However, it ... 
PH: ... lacks ... 
PH: ...for the coup de grace. 
PH: A finishing touch. 
PH: A closure to the argument. 
PH: >:P 
PH: An a??ro?riate closure, that is. 
FA: > OH -->
FA: > I SEE -->
FA: > you are under the IMPRESSION this is ACTING -->
FA: > no. -->
FA: > don't be an IDIOT -->
FA: > the only CLOSURE will be when you BREATHE your last BREATH -->
PH: Oh reeeeeeeeeeeeallllllllly? 
FA: > and I ASSURE you -->
FA: > if you CONTINUE to PURSUE -->
FA: > ANTAGONISTIC DESIRES -->
FA: > I WILL -->
FA: > KILL YOU. -->
FA: > with my OWN HANDS. -->
FA: > uhh -->
FA: > that was uhm -->
FA: > I don't really -->
PH: ... 
FA: > uhh -->
FA: > oops? -->
PH: First of all 
PH: IF I was under the "impression" that "this" is "acting," and it is not? You may take this to heart: >:P that I welllllllllllcome the ?athetic attem?t. I am alllllllways ready for a good joke. And the only last breath will be the one that guiltily flees your chittinous windflap once I jam my ?en in your left eye and rewrite your ffff malfunctioning thinkpan. >:( 
PH: Second of all, it still ... 
PH: lacks ... 
PH: for a cou? de grace. 
FA: > oh. -->
PH: Some laughter, next time. CRESCENDO. 
PH: Third of all? 
PH: ?retty good, Ezreki. 
PH: You get ... 
PH: ... a ?ass. >:P 
FA: > I WON? -->
PH: No. 
FA: > oh. -->
PH: Did I say "it's not" yet? 
FA: > no -->
FA: > no you didn't. -->
PH: Are you suuuuuuure? 
PH: >:P Well, if you're sure 
PH: ?retend 
PH: That 
PH: You 
PH: Are the most ?rotaganisty of ?rotaganists, and you are, of course, always VERY truthful 
PH: And tell me 
PH: What you reeeeeeally want 
PH: That you 
PH: Do NOT 
PH: have 
PH: and CANNOT 
PH: get 
PH: for reasons ?robably ?ertaining to character flaws >:P 
PH: Go on, let's hear it. 
FA: > I -->
FA: > uhm -->
FA: > I don't -->
FA: > uhm -->
FA: > understand the question. -->
FA: > uhm. -->
FA: > yeah. -->
PH: What do you want, Ezreki? What is your ?oint? 
PH: As a ?rotaganist? 
PH: ?retend you are answering that question. 
PH: >:) 
FA: > well I -->
FA: > I have to be -->
FA: > the very best -->
FA: > like no-one ever was -->
FA: > or something -->
FA: > like that -->
FA: > I guess -->
FA: > maybe fill all the quadrants -->
FA: > protagonists do that -->
PH: Hee Hee 
PH: I acce?t your ninja a?ology 
FA: > oh good -->
FA: > I am glad -->
PH: Now... 
PH: ...I ho?e you're ready for THIS one ... 
PH: ... It might be the most difficult of all. 
FA: > I am ready -->
PH: It's not... 
PH: ... for the faint ... 
PH: ... of heart. >:P 
FA: > I am not -->
FA: > fainty hearted -->
FA: > my heart is unfainty -->
PH: ?retend that you are... 
PH: ... fully flushed ... 
PH: ... toward ... 
PH: ... Salamander Lusus, Croc Lusus, Retgar Adrisk or Jennet Myrope? 
PH: WHICH WILL IT BE? 
FA: > uhhh -->

PH: Would you also be ski??ing? 
PH: Like a ?e??y little mountain troll goat? >:P 
FA: > if it would be -->
FA: > benificial to your enjoyment -->
FA: > I suppose -->
FA: > I would still be manly though -->
FA: > because that's still a thing -->
PH: oh ho ho ho HO 
PH: to MY enjoyment? >:P Yes, I am ever more awed by your manliness, I must admit 
PH: All right, Ezreki. That wasn't ... 
PH: Hee 
PH: Too bad, I su??ose 
FA: > oh good -->
FA: > I wasn't sure if I had -->
FA: > enough oooohs -->
PH: Quite frankly, you might have sli??ed a cou?le more in there 
PH: But it's okay, I'm sure Retgar isn't THAT discriminating 
FA: > ok -->
PH: >:) 
PH: Hmm. I believe ... 
PH: ... actually ... 
PH: ... honestly! ... 
PH: that this game ... HAS JUST BEGUN! >:D 
FA: > really? -->
FA: > oh dear. -->
PH: No, I'm teasing. >:P ?retend it's not Arethusa Says game anymore; game over. For now!!! 
FA: > so I am -->
FA: > the PROTAGONIST again? -->
PH: You didn't sto? being the ?rotaganist, idiot!!!!! You just sto??ed being the ?rotaganist who told the readers he was the ?rotaganist!!!! >:) 
FA: > OH. -->
PH: Well, except for when you DID sto? 
FA: > I SEE. -->
FA: > well Ok. -->
FA: > HAHA. -->
FA: > yes. -->
PH: >:P Yyyyyessss? 
FA: > YES. -->
FA: > we may MOVE to OTHER topics of CONVERSATION now. -->
PH: I'm sur?rised! Don't you want to crow about how you won? 
PH: Like some kind of ... 
FA: > it was IMPLIED by the WINNING. -->
PH: ... adorable little victory vulture? >:P 
FA: > I think you KNOW by my EXCELLENT PERFORMANCE that I am a WINNER -->
PH: GAS?!!! Humility??!?! 
FA: > so I don't need to REITERRATE. -->
PH: Oh. 
PH: Guess not! 
PH: FALSE ALARM, EVERYBODY! 
PH: >:) 
FA: > haha. -->
FA: > YES. -->
FA: > SO -->
FA: > how about the WEATHER -->
FA: > is it not -->
FA: > DREARY -->
PH: Hee. I should get ready for my duel with Octavi, actually. >:) We have arranged a ?rivate fic-crit session. 
FA: > I SEE -->
FA: > are you going to TELL him you KILLED him? -->
FA: > will he NOT be UPSET? -->
PH: Why would he be u?set? 
PH: Would YOU be u?set? 
FA: > that's not a RELEVANT QUESTION -->
FA: > I don't GET UPSET -->
FA: > I think -->
FA: > OBJECTIVELY though -->
FA: > having your HEAD REMOVED -->
FA: > is probably UPSETTING -->
PH: Well, YOU removed his head 
FA: > but YOU wrote it. -->
PH: I merely ?enned the ?ages that glorified the occurence 
FA: > either WAY -->
FA: > he' still UPSET -->
FA: > I assume. -->
PH: Yes? So? 
PH: I ... >:\ Don't see the ?oint you're trying to make? 
FA: > I -->
FA: > HMM -->
FA: > oh WELL -->
FA: > I suppose it isn't IMPORTANT. -->
PH: Awwwwwww!!! 
PH: Were you trying to be com?assionate? 
FA: > I -->
FA: > NO -->
FA: > I -->
FA: > I don't THINK so -->
FA: > although -->
FA: > a PROTAGONIST must EXPLORE all ROADS -->
FA: > except the FAILING ones -->
PH: Whaaaaaaaaaaaaaaat? 
PH: You don't think ... 
PH: ... that ?erha?s ... 
PH: a little FAILURE 
PH: might be good for a ?rotaganist? 
PH: To make him more sym?athetic??? 
FA: > uhhh -->
FA: > I -->
FA: > WHAT -->
FA: > BUT -->
FA: > the PROTAGONIST is GOOD at THAT already -->
FA: > because he's the PROTAGONIST -->
PH: No, no! 
PH: Sym?athetic to the reader 
PH: You know ... 
PH: Worth liking 
PH: And ho?ing for 
PH: >:P Didn't you realize ?erfection isn't very sym?athetic? 
FA: > but the PROTAGONIST IS WORTH LIKING -->
FA: > isn't HE -->
FA: > uhh -->
FA: > oh DEAR. -->
PH: I don't know! >:o Maybe not! 
FA: > oh -->
FA: > are you SURE -->
FA: > do you NOT find the PROTAGONIST LIKEABLE? -->
FA: > that would be quite unfortunate -->
FA: > I mean -->
FA: > UNFORTUNATE -->
PH: I don't think that's a relevant question 
PH: >:) 
FA: > I think it's a RELEVANT question. -->
FA: > if a PROTAGONIST'S own PARTYMATES do not FIND him LIKEABLE -->
FA: > the PROTAGONIST may need to REASSESS the SITUATION -->
FA: > maybe -->
FA: > but in a very COOL way. -->
FA: > because he's still a BIG DEAL because he has to be because he's the PROTAGONIST -->
PH: There is a very, very, VERY 
PH: oh so VERY 
PH: sim?le solution to this 
PH: So sim?le that it ?ractically defies ex?lanation 
PH: I feel ... 
PH: ... well ... 
PH: silly 
PH: even ?ointing it out 
PH: Actually, I think I shall not! 
PH: I don't want to give you 
PH: s?oilers 
FA: > WHAT -->
FA: > BUT -->
PH: >:) 
FA: > it isn't -->
FA: > a SPOILER -->
FA: > exactly -->
FA: > it's -->

FA: > that I need to know. -->
FA: > are you SURE it's a SPOILER -->
FA: > it's probably NOT -->
FA: > I'm pretty SURE it ISN'T -->
PH: That because YOU 
FA: > you should PROBABLY TELL ME NOW -->
PH: are still ... 
PH: ... ?ure. 
PH: Untainted. 
PH: Untouched! 
PH: by s?oilers. 
PH: You would lose some of your SURETY 
PH: if I were to tarnish the bloom of your, uh, ?recious ?lot innocence 
FA: > OH -->
FA: > well if you REALLY THINK SO -->
FA: > I guess I will have to TAKE your WORD on IT. -->
FA: > are you SURE though -->
FA: > if you AREN'T SURE -->
FA: > you should TELL ME -->
FA: > just in CASE I miss SOMETHING. -->
FA: > and then the STORY would be RUINED -->
FA: > HAHA. -->
PH: Eeeeeeeeeeezreki? 
FA: > YES? -->
PH: Did you have fun? 
FA: > with WHAT -->
PH: ?laying Arethusa Says? >:) 
FA: > it was very CHALLENGING -->
FA: > I ENJOYED the BIT where I WON at the END -->
FA: > that was NICE -->
PH: Hmmmmmmmmm 
PH: You DID win, didn't you? 
PH: What should your prize be? >:P

PH: Wellllllll 
PH: ?ersonally 
PH: I tend to ... 
PH: ... cheer? Root? Yell like an idiot? 
PH: ... for ... 
PH: the Antagonist, because you just KNOW the ?rotaganist is ?robably going to triumph. But the Antagonist? 
PH: Is only fun 
PH: When there ... 
PH: ... are ... 
PH: slo??y ?rotaganist / Antagonist makeouts! >:D 
FA: > this does not ANSWER the QUESTION HOWEVER -->
PH: Lacking those, (and when you have PENKIND, such things are NEVER lacking) 
PH: I su??ose the ?rotaganist is likeable enough, for a ?rotaganist >;) 
FA: > I SEE. -->
FA: > so you are SAYING he is NOT UNLIKEABLE -->
PH: De?ending on your mental stability, of course, yes. >:) 
FA: > mental STABILITY? -->
PH: Yes, indeed! 
FA: > what OF mental STABILITY -->
PH: Do YOU believe disliking a ?rotaganist is a sign of a healthy mind? 
FA: > I would say NOT -->
PH: Exactly! 
PH: ?recisely! 
FA: > well I am GLAD we SORTED that OUT. -->
PH: MmHmm. 
PH: And I am due for my fic crit! >:D 
FA: > ok, THEN -->
