- [01:12] * abrasiveCaliginist has begun espering strikingBelladonna
- [01:12] <abrasiveCaliginist> Let me begin, before I draw your ire or lose your (almost certainly rapt) attention, by saying that I owe you an apology.
- [01:13] <abrasiveCaliginist> It is evident to me that I hurt you with my words, and such was never intent.
- [01:13] <abrasiveCaliginist> Also for endangering myself I guess.
- [01:14] <strikingBelladonna> So I've heard through the punchy grapevine.
- [01:14] <abrasiveCaliginist> Heh, Vera, am I right? Good kid.
- [01:15] <strikingBelladonna> That she is, I heard she browbeat you quite thoroughly.
- [01:15] <abrasiveCaliginist> She did.
- [01:16] <strikingBelladonna> Well then, before I accept this apology, I must ask you to detail, how exactly did you hurt me with your words.
- [01:16] <strikingBelladonna> Don't worry, there are wrong answers.
- [01:16] <abrasiveCaliginist> You ended our last conversation so abruptly, I assumed I had something to offend you.
- [01:17] <strikingBelladonna> And why would anything you'd done offend me? Perhaps I simply had to go.
- [01:17] <abrasiveCaliginist> Perhaps. But I had a gut sensation. Call it Grubslinger's Intuition.
- [01:18] <strikingBelladonna> That's quite the gut you have there, do you name all of its sensations like that, or do you give them other more palatable ones.
- [01:20] <abrasiveCaliginist> Hm. You're still upset, I see. I cry your pardon; it was foolish of me to think what I've done could be forgiven so easily.
- [01:21] <strikingBelladonna> Yes, I'm absolutely devastated by what you've done to me, the way you've ran my heart around like a cheap show horse, I nearly cry thinking about it.
- [01:21] <strikingBelladonna> I feel the quite unfun compulsion to qualify that that statement is not reflective of my actual emotions.
- [01:22] <abrasiveCaliginist> I suppose. What are your actual emotions, then?
- [01:22] <strikingBelladonna> Well obviously hurt and worried that my little darling used words and was endangered respectively.
- [01:23] <strikingBelladonna> That's also not true, in case you were confused.
- [01:23] <abrasiveCaliginist> I wasn't.
- [01:23] <abrasiveCaliginist> Maybe I should have given this more time...
- [01:23] <strikingBelladonna> My apologies for the unnecessary not then, I've trusted you not to be before, and been burnt.
- [01:23] <strikingBelladonna> note*
- [01:24] <strikingBelladonna> If you wish to know my actual emotions, I'm quite impressed at how all of this is gone, and my only regret is that it wasn't all orchestrated by me.
- [01:25] <abrasiveCaliginist> I suppose. Did you hear about how I was possessed?
- [01:26] <strikingBelladonna> Nothing about that yet, whoever would have possessed you?
- [01:27] <abrasiveCaliginist> Hm. A very old relation of mine. I was able to learn a lot during his occupation of my mind.
- [01:27] <abrasiveCaliginist> Your father truly is a kind man, though their association began one thousand sweeps too late.
- [01:28] <strikingBelladonna> Oh?
- [01:28] <abrasiveCaliginist> Yes. They've met, though I have no idea what would bring him to this place.
- [01:29] <abrasiveCaliginist> Ah, forgive me; I've no way of substantiating any of these obscenely far fetched claims.
- [01:29] <strikingBelladonna> The man is quite the traveler, I am not surprised that he would take some time to stop by your world as well.
- [01:29] <strikingBelladonna> You've never been concerned about substantiation before.
- [01:30] <strikingBelladonna> I fondly recall when you first contacted me and announced with no provocation that you were an alien and found me oddly... fetching.
- [01:30] <abrasiveCaliginist> My whole life is a comedy of regrets. Black flirtation with you ranks near the top.
- [01:31] <abrasiveCaliginist> I don't even say that in a mean way.
- [01:31] <strikingBelladonna> I cannot possibly imagine why it would.
- [01:31] <strikingBelladonna> I enjoyed it immensely.
- [01:31] <abrasiveCaliginist> It just turned out disastrously and-much like my other mistakes-I can't seem to live it down.
- [01:32] <strikingBelladonna> Well, sweetie, I don't think you'll ever live much of anything down.
- [01:32] <abrasiveCaliginist> What do you mean?
- [01:33] <strikingBelladonna> You've chosen quite incorrect associates if you would prefer us to forget your embarrassments.
- [01:33] <abrasiveCaliginist> Mm. So it is, so it is. Still, I'm largely happy with the confederates I've chosen.
- [01:34] <strikingBelladonna> I'm sure you would be, still, to return the conversation to an earlier topic, you mentioned my father visited your ancestor.
- [01:35] <strikingBelladonna> Would you know what age he was when they met?
- [01:35] <abrasiveCaliginist> He did, bearing his blade and a... How did he describe it? Lilac? Lilac scarf?
- [01:35] <abrasiveCaliginist> ((Is it lilac? I can never remember))
- [01:35] <strikingBelladonna> ((blood red))
- [01:35] <abrasiveCaliginist> ((Really?! Shit. Lemme fix that))
- [01:35] <strikingBelladonna> ((so no one can see when he cuts himself on his edge))
- [01:36] <abrasiveCaliginist> ((Wow he must be dedicated to edge if he slits his throat with it))
- [01:36] <strikingBelladonna> ((it's an accident, I swear))
- [01:37] <abrasiveCaliginist> ((Just pretend he said blood red and move on))
- [01:38] <strikingBelladonna> I see, those are his usual accoutrements, I'm trying to parse where this would have been within what I know of his timeline.
- [01:38] <abrasiveCaliginist> He couldn't have been too much older than yourself, I think.
- [01:39] <abrasiveCaliginist> Then again, he struck Roland as slightly...diminutive in stature. Once more, no offense meant.
- [01:40] <strikingBelladonna> No, I'm aware, I'm roughly his height.
- [01:40] <strikingBelladonna> Well, when he's in heels.
- [01:40] <abrasiveCaliginist> He wears heels?!
- [01:41] <strikingBelladonna> It's a long story I may explain later if you're good.
- [01:41] <strikingBelladonna> Perhaps you can tell me about when he met your ancestor too?
- [01:41] <abrasiveCaliginist> If good is your criterion, I'm afraid I may never hear it.
- [01:41] <abrasiveCaliginist> Ah, certainly.
- [01:42] <strikingBelladonna> Really, good and bad are just a matter of perspective, and you need to remember, this would be from mine.
- [01:42] <abrasiveCaliginist> He emerged in the throne room from an odd portal that I-that Roland, I mean, had been camped outside of for a couple of days without much food or water.
- [01:43] <strikingBelladonna> I uh... wow, I didn't expect you to just start telling me it now.
- [01:43] <abrasiveCaliginist> Roland was nearly delirious and, for a moment, I reckon Levi meant to kill him; trolls do look a lot like your demons.
- [01:43] <abrasiveCaliginist> Oh. Would you sooner I wait?
- [01:44] <strikingBelladonna> I was going to do a whole thing almost flirting with you and say we could swap stories some other time.
- [01:44] <abrasiveCaliginist> Almost flirting with me?! What was all that talk about "relationships with people I can reach", then?
- [01:45] == dualisticArcanist_ [webchat@c-73-78-88-168.hsd1.co.comcast.net] has joined #RPGStuck_Orwell
- [01:45] <abrasiveCaliginist> Unless it's some sort of good fun thing you humans do. I could see that.
- [01:45] <strikingBelladonna> That's why it would be almost flirting, there would have been more than enough around it to be almost inscrutable as to whether it was real or not
- [01:46] <abrasiveCaliginist> Meh, I never had the patience or mental acumen for funny little games like that.
- [01:46] <abrasiveCaliginist> If I did, we never would have met.
- [01:46] <strikingBelladonna> You do a good job of not being boring despite your ineptitude.
- [01:47] <abrasiveCaliginist> Likely on account of how easily I anger.
- [01:47] <strikingBelladonna> And fluster.
- [01:47] <strikingBelladonna> And how adorable you are when you're a little grumpy puppy.
- [01:48] <abrasiveCaliginist> Alright, alright, it's cute, I get it. No need to go telling the world what a grumpy pupper I am.
- [01:48] <strikingBelladonna> Of course not, that screenshot is for my pleasure alone.
- [01:49] <abrasiveCaliginist> [gentle sobs]
- [01:49] <abrasiveCaliginist> I'm certain you enjoy it, in a unique, abstract way.
- [01:50] <strikingBelladonna> I think you'll find that at my core I am a simple and physical type of girl.
- [01:50] <strikingBelladonna> My enjoyment of things is something ubiquitous amongst women of all species.
- [01:51] <abrasiveCaliginist> "Things" is awful broad. Care to specify a little?
- [01:51] <strikingBelladonna> Tentacles, especially yours.
- [01:52] <abrasiveCaliginist> You couldn't possibly have a picture of...that. I'd know.
- [01:53] <abrasiveCaliginist> Also, it'd be terribly disappointing if you did.
- [01:53] <abrasiveCaliginist> It's the sort of thing I'd withhold for especially good girls.
- [01:53] <abrasiveCaliginist> ((Am I doing it right?))
- [01:54] <strikingBelladonna> *Sigh* I suppose we shouldn't discuss your tentacle and any pictures I may or may not have of it in too much detail.
- [01:55] <strikingBelladonna> I might get carried away, and I promised Winona not to play with you too much.
- [01:56] <abrasiveCaliginist> Yes, perhaps. But those games were rather one-sided, were they not? What if our new game had two players?
- [01:57] <strikingBelladonna> I believe you mentioned earlier something about lacking the mental acumen.
- [01:58] <abrasiveCaliginist> True, true, but my games are a far cry from yours.
- [01:58] <strikingBelladonna> Oh, then you would suggest a new game?
- [01:58] <abrasiveCaliginist> Indeed I would.
- [01:58] <strikingBelladonna> Consider me intrigued, and eagerly awaiting enlightenment.
- [01:59] <abrasiveCaliginist> There's only one rule.
- [01:59] <abrasiveCaliginist> Are you ready to hear it?
- [01:59] <abrasiveCaliginist> Because I sincerely doubt you're prepared for it.
- [02:00] <strikingBelladonna> I'm certain I'm not, but I will accept the consequences of my lack of preparation.
- [02:00] <abrasiveCaliginist> Alright. Here it is:
- [02:00] <abrasiveCaliginist> Last one to sort out their quadrants is a rotten egg!
- [02:01] * abrasiveCaliginist has gone offline!
- [02:02] <strikingBelladonna> "Oh heavens, I think I may need a fresh lightbulb after that."
- [02:02] <abrasiveCaliginist> "HAH! SUCK IT! SUUUUUUUUCK..."
- [02:02] <abrasiveCaliginist> "...IIIIIIIIIIT!"
- [02:02] <strikingBelladonna> ===END===
