Arethusa: Fail to be overdramatic.

-- plotHooked [PH] began pestering celestialToxophilite [CT] at 18:35 --
[06:35] PH: T!
[06:35] PH: ?st.
[06:35] PH: ?sssst.
[06:35] PH: ?ssssssst.
[06:35] PH: ?ssssssssst.
[06:35] PH: ?ssssssssssssst.
[06:35] PH: ?ssssssssssssssst.
[06:35] CT: Aeire! Oh holy Mother Grub!
[06:35] CT: What.
[06:35] CT: What now.
[06:36] PH: I do have something of the Holy Mother Grub's radiance, don't I? >:) Be in awe! Gaze in ra?ture! Wonder at how much weight She has lost!
[06:36] PH: Which is ... I su??ose ... All of the weight. All of it.
[06:36] CT: )8/ Wow.
[06:36] PH: Considering that She is ?robably dead now.
[06:36] PH: Which is something I rather thought YOU and She would have in common.
[06:36] CT: Yeah, that izzz pretty deprezzzzzzing, izzzn't it?
[06:36] CT: Heh.
[06:37] CT: I bet you're all dizzzzzzapointed. ):]
[06:37] PH: Yes. It is. I don't actually think any of our (!!!!!!!!!! >:O ) teammates care, which makes me a) sad and b) worried and c) indignant.
[06:38] PH: Hee, gosh yes, Taula. I cried when I heard.
[06:38] PH: I literally ?ut away my Handless Com?uting Device.
[06:38] CT: Actually, for one rare occazzzion...I agree with you.
[06:38] PH: Dro??ed my head into my hands.
[06:38] CT: Tell me all about it, highblood freak! ):]
[06:38] CT: I want detailzzz!
[06:39] PH: A fitting breeze whistled out of the chasm, bringing with it the song of a storm stroking holes in the rockface, and it ?layed with my hair, sending it u? toward the s?arky starry sky. A rainbow shattered into ?ieces; it reformed, but only in sad colors, like yellow.
[06:39] PH: The im?s ceased their assault immediately, so great was the force of my disa??ointment.
[06:39] PH: They stared, and felt just a little bit touched.
[06:39] PH: In the black hearts they do not have.
[06:40] CT: Oh...oh wow.
[06:40] CT: I need a moment.
[06:40] PH: They cre?t close and said, "Arethusa. We- we - is there anything we can do? Maybe it won't be so bad?"
[06:40] CT: *Sniff*
[06:40] CT: I need to be held.
[06:40] PH: I lifted my head from my hands, but it was the most difficult thing I have ever yet done. The entire weight of lost Alternia was ?ressing down '?on my horns! I felt it settle into my s?ine!
[06:40] PH: I re?lied...
[06:40] CT: Wahhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!
[06:40] PH: 'You clearly haven't s?oken to her.'
[06:41] CT: Clearly, the thought of my zzzurvival wazzz upzzzetting.
[06:42] CT: I am amazed, actually.
[06:42] CT: That you are not harazzzzzzing me with a million zzztupid and pointlezzzzzz quezzztionzzz.
[06:42] PH: GAS?!
[06:42] PH: What?
[06:42] PH: Me?
[06:42] PH: Ask stu?id and ?OINTless questions?
[06:42] CT: No.
[06:43] PH: Never, T. Never.
[06:43] CT: I WAS SAYING THAT ABOUT LAMIA.
[06:43] CT: ...
[06:43] CT: OF COURSE I MEANT YOU.
[06:43] CT: )8O
[06:43] PH: I don't know. Lamia does ask a lot of questions...
[06:43] PH: ...Did she ask you very many when you killed ?e?eir?
[06:43] CT: Yezzz. But they are not zzztupid.
[06:43] CT: Ahh. Did zzzhe tell you already?
[06:44] PH: Does it sound as if I believe you're still in danger from meteors or the VAST GLUB?
[06:45] CT: Pozzzzzzibly. Yezzz.
[06:45] CT: ):]
[06:45] PH: Hm?h. Well, then you need to get your hearing checked. >;)
[06:45] PH: Or whatever.
[06:45] CT: ...
[06:45] CT: Ok, cool.
[06:45] CT: I will get right on that.
[06:46] PH: ...I am actually glad you're alive.
[06:46] PH: Not just instead of ?e?eir, but! You know, as you.
[06:47] CT: Are you really?
[06:47] PH: Why would I lie about that? >B)
[06:48] CT: Ahh. Silly me.
[06:48] CT: You are alwayzzz completely truzzztworthy.
[06:49] CT: And alwayzzz zzzpeak the truth.
[06:49] PH: The only trolls who aren't trustworthy are trolls you don't understand. >:) 
[06:49] CT: I feel zzzo foolizzzh now.
[06:50] CT: Yeah, that'zzz bullzzzhit.
[06:50] CT: But I will ignore that poorly veiled jab.
[06:50] CT: You had a reazzzon for contacting me.
[06:50] PH: Well, T. I'm saying this in a motherly tone of voice; the vibrations are soothing; I am ?utting a hand on your shoulder. Then I'm saying, That's not bullshit. That's ?urestrain gold in truth form, and it wasn't a jab. My jabs come dressed to the nines or they don't come dressed at all.
[06:50] CT: What do you want?
[06:51] CT: Yup, ok. Sure. What do you want?
[06:52] PH: I am wounded, T. Wounded, that you think I wouldn't contact you just because you're one of seven other trolls left alive and I'm bored. Or that you think I wouldn't contact you to inquire as to why you killed him. ?e?eir. I mean, seriously, why DID you kill him? If you say it is because he was a threat, I will laugh myself u? a cou?le echeladders.
[06:53] PH: Are you okay?
[06:53] CT: ...
[06:53] CT: Didn't zzzhe tell you what happened?
[06:53] PH: Not really. Just '?e?eir is dead; do you know this CT ?erson who's full of s?ooky hoofbeast shit?'
[06:54] PH: >:) I would like to collect Trolls (or other Beings, I su??ose) who ask me if you are to be trusted.
[06:54] CT: Ahh. To which you rezzzponded...?
[06:54] PH: I think I will start a ledger.
[06:54] CT: Hahaha. Nice.
[06:55] CT: Sweet. So what are the other idiotzzz zzzaying about me?
[06:55] CT: I am inzzzanely curiouzzz!
[06:55] CT: ):]
[06:55] PH: Tee Hee. It is ?retty quaint, yes, and nuh uh. You first, T. Why'd you kill him? What ha??ened? 
[06:56] PH: Did your sources tell you to?
[06:56] CT: ...
[06:56] CT: I did not kill him.
[06:58] PH: Did he kill himself?
[06:58] CT: That muzzzt have been a...mizzzzzzcomunication.
[06:58] CT: No.
[06:58] PH: (Note: with any other troll that would be sarcasm.)
[06:58] PH: (But ?e?eir.)
[06:58] CT: Ugh. I know.
[06:58] CT: I am dealing with him right now.
[06:58] CT: What izzz hizzz fazzzcination with Lamia, anyway?!
[06:58] PH: So how did he die? 
[06:58] PH: AHAHAHAAHAHAH!
[06:58] PH: Oh man.
[06:59] PH: Ahahahahahahaa.
[06:59] PH: Hee, Hee!
[06:59] CT: He keepzzz trying to zzzteal my huzzzktop.
[06:59] CT: So he can talk to her.
[06:59] CT: )8/
[06:59] CT: Yezzz, it izzz hilariouzzz.
[06:59] PH: She sent him to me for advice on a troll he was 'flushed' for.
[06:59] PH: Turns out, that troll was her.
[06:59] CT: Oh god what.
[06:59] CT: HAHAHAHAHAHA!
[06:59] CT: That izzz hilariouzzz.
[07:00] PH: Turns out, he's totally obsessed and com?letely inca?able of ?rocessing a ?icture of Lamia that doesn't fit in neatly with his 'shy troll becomes brave and a nice troll flushes for him' story.
[07:00] CT: And I mean that genuinely thizzz time!
[07:00] PH: Seriously, she was like -
[07:00] PH: "mean" to him, right?
[07:00] CT: YeaH?
[07:00] PH: Like - ?a?ercuts are worse.
[07:00] CT: Of courzzze.
[07:00] PH: Actually, ?a?ercuts are bitches. That is a bad analogy.
[07:00] PH: But because she didn't automatically SWOON into his arms
[07:00] PH: a delightful sea-green
[07:01] CT: Oh dear.
[07:01] CT: Oh goodnezzzzzz.
[07:01] PH: He figured that she would never flush for him
[07:01] PH: And he asked me to cull him
[07:01] PH: >:D
[07:01] CT: WOW WHAT.
[07:01] CT: D:(
[07:01] PH: Ahahahahahahahahaha
[07:01] CT: Ok. Juzzzt zzzo you know, he izzz reading it right now.
[07:01] CT: By it I mean THIS CONVERSATION.
[07:02] PH: Hee! That's fine. He'll concur; won't you, ?e??y?
[07:02] CT: Right now OwlMom izzz in control, zzzo he izzzn't too bad.
[07:02] CT: But holy zzzhit.
[07:02] CT: If Pep getzzz control again, all betzzz are off.
[07:02] PH: Maybe don't let him read things in which 'Lamia' is mentioned.
[07:03] PH: ?oor kid just wanted some friends, but he was so broken, I ?robably should have culled him instead of trying to get him to go bug Ez. >:\ 
[07:03] CT: "Maybe" he izzz impozzzzzzible to get rid of!
[07:03] CT: Hey. Hey.
[07:03] PH: Well, how did he die?
[07:03] PH: Maybe use whatever killed him to scare him away?
[07:03] PH: >:)
[07:03] CT: Dezzzpite being an annoying little mook...I have really not minded him too much. At leazzzt...for now.
[07:03] CT: Umm.
[07:03] CT: Do you really want to know what happened?
[07:04] PH: Yes!
[07:04] CT: ...
[07:04] CT: He wazzz cruzzzhed to death by OwlMom'zzz carcazzzzzz.
[07:04] PH: 0_0
[07:07] CT: Yep.
[07:07] CT: Owldad got her.
[07:07] CT: She landed on Pep.
[07:07] CT: Splat.
[07:07] CT: ...Yup.
[07:08] PH: >:\ Damn. I'm sorry, T. I know you really liked your lusus.
[07:08] PH: Did you at least kill Owldad? Maybe you can use his cor?se to scare ?e?eir. Although if he's been merged in s?riteform with Owlmom .... That's just weird. >:O
[07:09] CT: Ugh. No, a meteor got him.
[07:09] CT: It all happened zzzo fazzzt.
[07:09] CT: And no, I did not prototype OwlDad.
[07:09] CT: Get thizzz.
[07:09] CT: Pep.
[07:10] CT: Chozzze to prototype with OwlMom.
[07:10] CT: Alzzzo...
[07:10] CT: He fucking did it pre-entry.
[07:10] CT: )8/
[07:10] PH: Ugh. Well, my two ?rototy?ings were ?re-entry, as well. 
[07:10] PH: Although I didn't know anything about ?rototy?ings at that ?oint. Yay, learning.
[07:11] CT: Yeah, zzzo I have heard.
[07:11] CT: Hahahaha.
[07:11] PH: Also, I did not exactly choose either of the items my s?rite was ?rototy?ed by.
[07:11] PH: Fucking ?irates.
[07:11] CT: Well, Lamia told me zzzhe tried to zzztop him.
[07:11] CT: But...ugh.
[07:11] CT: Hahaha.
[07:11] CT: How izzz Argh doing anyway?
[07:13] PH: Hmm. He hel?ed me build u? to my next gate, but he was ?reoccu?ied with concern over his 'boatless' state. >:) You know, all that water to sail u?on. Not even any waves; just water. And frogs, I think?
[07:13] CT: Yeah, I've zzzeen hizzz land. I like it!
[07:14] PH: Hey, I want to ask you a serious question. You didn't know ?e?eir was going to die, right? You were going to his Hive, sure that something was going to ha??en which would make it all "okay," that you'd survive, etcetera, etcetera.
[07:14] PH: But what DID you think was going to ha??en?
[07:14] CT: Guezzzzzz he'zzz gonna have to learn to zzzwim! Hahahahaha!
[07:15] CT: Honezzztly? I had zzzeen Pep...wait, zzzorry..."Pep" after my entry.
[07:16] CT: All I knew wazzz that if I did not go to hizzz hive, we would both have died.
[07:17] PH: Sounds ...
[07:17] PH: ... Extremely ...
[07:17] PH: ... Lame. >:P
[07:17] PH: As far as sources go.
[07:18] CT: Yep. It izzz really lame.
[07:18] CT: I agree totally.
[07:18] PH: So are you still going to listen to them?
[07:18] PH: Do you still have -acccess- to them?
[07:18] PH: >:?
[07:19] CT: Ugh.
[07:19] CT: Yezzz.
[07:19] CT: I will zzztill conzzzult them.
[07:20] PH: Why??????
[07:20] PH: Do you know what they are? I mean, what they really are?
[07:26] CT: Yezzz.
[07:33] PH: Welllllllllllllllllllll???????????????????????????????
[07:33] CT: ...you can find out on your own!
[07:33] PH: What.
[07:34] PH: Are you kidding me.
[07:34] PH: Really?
[07:34] PH: Reeealllllly?
[07:34] CT: Deadly zzzeriouzzz.
[07:37] PH: Alternia is destroyed; THE VAST GLUB takes out all trolls in the entirety of the universe; a cowardly ?e?eir chooses to merge with the thing that killed him; a game with a code that actually runs on our huskto?s and ?Cs turns out to be the gateway to an e?ic battle between Light and Darkness which Light is definitely maybe ?robably going to lose;
[07:38] PH: cotton candy no longer exists; there is no more Mother Grub; there is ?ractically no more future; we all have hokey game titles which are su??osed to somehow define our destiny;
[07:38] PH: did I mention that cotton candy no longer exists
[07:38] PH: and yet!
[07:38] PH: YET!
[07:38] PH: YEEEEET.
[07:38] PH: You will not divulge your 'sources.'
[07:38] PH: Because.
[07:38] PH: I can find out.
[07:38] PH: On my own.
[07:38] PH: Are you kidding me?!
[07:38] CT: YES. YES YOU CAN!
[07:39] CT: HOLY MUSCLEBEAST SHIT!
[07:40] PH: I wish to ty?e 'How?'
[07:40] PH: And yet I sus?ect that if I do 
[07:40] PH: I will only find myself reading
[07:40] PH: -- I don't have any s?ooky sources to tell me this, mind you --
[07:40] PH: 'Wake u?.'
[07:41] CT: ):]
[07:41] PH: >:(
[07:41] CT: I can help, you know.
[07:41] CT: /me Tentzzz her fingerzzz, rezzztzzz her chin on them.
[07:41] PH: The word 'hel?' isn't actually one I usually associated with the name 'Taula' in my head. >:) 
[07:42] PH: What would your hel? consist of?
[07:42] PH: Actually ...
[07:42] PH: ... What is your title?
[07:45] CT: I am...
[07:45] CT: The Knight of Void.
[07:45] CT: Ha.
[07:45] CT: Ha.
[07:45] CT: Get it?
[07:45] CT: Knight?
[07:45] CT: Oh my god that izzz hilariouzzz.
[07:46] PH: Truly, it is a clever game we ?lay.
[07:46] CT: I know! >:O
[07:46] PH: Whoever, or whatever, dredged these destinies out've the dee?est, darkest recesses of who and what we are and who and what we might be
[07:46] PH: ... well, damn. Geniuses.
[07:46] PH: Outright geniuses.
[07:46] CT: I am in awe.
[07:47] CT: They are truly zzzupremely intelligent beingzzz, I am zzzure.
[07:51] PH: Any idea what it's actually su??osed to mean?
[07:51] CT: Yep.
[07:52] PH: That's so great. O. M. G.
[07:52] PH: So great.
[07:52] PH: The greatness enca?sulated right there?
[07:52] PH: Wait, what am I saying?
[07:52] PH: That greatness can't be ENCA?SULATED!
[07:52] PH: IT IS TOO GREAT!!!!!
[07:52] CT: I KNOW!!!
[07:52] PH: >;)
[07:52] CT: )8D
[07:52] PH: So what's it mean?
[07:53] CT: It meanzzz that I am firzzzt and foremozzzt a protector.
[07:53] CT: And that I will come into...powerzzz.
[07:53] CT: That will be totally awezzzome and better than yourzzz!
[07:54] PH: Wow. I wonder what your ?e?eir/Owl-mom s?rite thinks of that!
[07:54] PH: The whole "?rotector" angle.
[07:54] PH: Must be really difficult.
[07:54] PH: >:O
[07:54] CT: Pleazzze.
[07:55] PH: And, I mean, you just almost killed ME.
[07:55] CT: We are calling it POS.
[07:55] CT: Oh? Did I?
[07:55] PH: Ahahahahaahahha!!!
[07:55] CT: DID I?
[07:55] PH: An excellent name.
[07:55] PH: And oh, yes.
[07:55] PH: Yes, Taula, you did.
[07:55] PH: You answered a question, you see.
[07:55] PH: I would like you to scroll u? and look really hard at that exchange.
[07:55] PH: For future reference!
[07:55] PH: Next time you're confronted with one >:)
[07:55] PH: You'll know that you CAN do it!
[07:55] PH: It CAN be done! >:D
[07:56] PH: You have the ?ower within!!!
[07:56] CT: Would you...
[07:56] CT: juzzzt...
[07:56] CT: fucking...
[07:56] CT: agree...
[07:56] CT: TO WAKE UP ALREADY?!?!
[07:57] PH: BLUH BLUH.
[07:58] PH: What is so wrong with conversing, sharing information troll to troll instead of trusting bullshit mystical sources to give it to you straight?
[08:02] PH: If you want me to 'wake u?' to a reality in which all information is deceminated via clouds in a magical golden city and nobody ever talks or even matters because there are MAGIC SOURCES then screw that.
[08:24] CT: HAHAHAHA.
[08:24] CT: No way. That'zzz zzztupid. ):]
[08:28] PH: Yes. Yes it is. >:)
[08:28] PH: T, what's your land like? Or called?
[08:29] PH: What are you actually ?lanning to do next? 
[08:29] PH: Are you entrenched in a quest?
[08:30] PH: Have you alchemized anything cool? Are you looking for a gate to get yourself out? Do you want to visit Kyarib? >:)
[08:30] PH: You did say you liked his land, after all. Such concern!
[08:30] PH: >:)
[08:31] CT: Umm. Wow. You are amazing.
[08:31] CT: Truly.
[08:31] CT: I am, for your information,
[08:31] CT: Working on my echeladder.
[08:32] CT: I am not too worried about vizzziting other landzzz yet.
[08:33] PH: Yet? Aww. Do you have a schedule? When are you going to come visit me, T? I long for this moment, you know.
[08:33] PH: Utterly. 
[08:34] PH: My ardor for Taula hang-outs will not be quenched until you ?ass through the gate into LoFAR with your eyes wide and your mouth aga?e.
[08:34] PH: And you ?ull u? your huskto? and say ...
[08:34] PH: '...Aerie. You really are amazzzing. This ?lace is zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzo much cooler than mine.'
[08:34] PH: >:)
[08:35] CT: Hahahaha. ):]
[08:35] CT: Why don't you vizzzit me?
[08:35] CT: That way I wouldn't have to run into...anyone elzzze.

[08:41] PH: Not even the sound of an orchestra warming u?.
[08:41] CT: Maybe!
[08:41] PH: And you're su??osed to notice and fix it >:)
[08:41] PH: Ahahahaha good luck

[08:43] PH: And on to something, even though she isn't even there?
[08:43] PH: Damn, that doesn't work as well with ty?e.
[08:43] CT: Oh fuck that.
[08:43] CT: FUCK THAT.
[08:43] PH: Shh. It's okay.

[08:44] CT: I need to check POS
[08:44] CT: They...vanizzzhed.
[08:44] PH: Vanished? 
[08:44] PH: Maybe they vanished toward your first quest.
[08:44] CT: Yeah. You know. Took off?
[08:45] CT: Ugh. Whatever.
[08:45] PH: Seriously, good luck T! >:) 
[08:45] CT: Alright, I'll check it out.
