Nick has a request of Faerzen

[18:33]  * solemnSketcher has started pestering visceralVanguard
[18:33] <solemnSketcher> so...
[18:33] <solemnSketcher> hello?
[18:34] <solemnSketcher> so... i... uhhh... wanted to say that... eh... i arrived safely at my planet
[18:34] <solemnSketcher> the baby is doing fine
[18:35] <@visceralVanguard> Oh, hello, Nick.
[18:35] <@visceralVanguard> That's good to hear.
[18:35] <solemnSketcher> how.... how are you doing?
[18:35] <@visceralVanguard> I'm still rather trying to shake the sleep from my brain at the moment.
[18:35] <@visceralVanguard> I woke up not too long ago from a very relaxing nap.
[18:35] <@visceralVanguard> It was nice. :)
[18:36] <solemnSketcher> oh. you were taking a nap? that's... nice... i  guess
[18:36] <@visceralVanguard> Yes, it was.
[18:36] <solemnSketcher> : )
[18:36] <solemnSketcher> im glad yo are doing fine
[18:36] <@visceralVanguard> Regent was nice enough to allow me to sleep without switching bodies or waking up on Prospit so I didn't have to deal with any of that.
[18:36] <solemnSketcher> oh
[18:37] <solemnSketcher> i rather miss sleeping
[18:37] <solemnSketcher> dreaming was just... something.
[18:37] <solemnSketcher> i miss that
[18:37] <@visceralVanguard> I didn't realize how much I missed it until now.
[18:37] <@visceralVanguard> It honestly felt amazing to give my mind and body a true respite, even if it was only for a short while.
[18:38] <solemnSketcher> yeah... that sounds great
[18:38] <solemnSketcher> so...
[18:38] <solemnSketcher> i...
[18:39] <@visceralVanguard> Hmm?
[18:39] <solemnSketcher> dang... its hard to choose words after all this stuff
[18:39] <@visceralVanguard> You have been thinking, haven't you.
[18:39] <@visceralVanguard> About what I said earlier.
[18:39] <solemnSketcher> yes... just a bit. yes
[18:40] <@visceralVanguard> Am I correct in presuming you have questions?
[18:40] <@visceralVanguard> I know I would if I had the great misfortune to be on your end of the deal in this case.
[18:40] <solemnSketcher> ...well... not exacty... questions...
[18:41] <solemnSketcher> just... a single request
[18:41] <solemnSketcher> but its a big one
[18:41] <@visceralVanguard> What is it?
[18:41] <solemnSketcher> faerzen
[18:41] <solemnSketcher> please
[18:42] <solemnSketcher> never keep a secret from me again
[18:42] <@visceralVanguard> <there is a pause>
[18:43] <@visceralVanguard> I'm sorry, please excuse me for a moment, I would like to take Regent off for this.
[18:44] <solemnSketcher> ...oh
[18:44] <@visceralVanguard> Okay, I have returned.
[18:44] <solemnSketcher> just... take your time... i dont want to... get too deep in that topic
[18:44] <@visceralVanguard> I.... don't think I can or want to subject Regent to any more crap from my mind at the moment.
[18:44] <@visceralVanguard> I've already done enough to that crown as it is.
[18:45] <@visceralVanguard> .... and I've only just met it.
[18:45] <@visceralVanguard> Wow, that does seem to be a pattern here, doesn't it?
[18:45] <solemnSketcher> heh.
[18:46] <@visceralVanguard> Nick....
[18:46] <@visceralVanguard> I'm so sorry
[18:46] <solemnSketcher> faerzen
[18:46] <@visceralVanguard> I didn't think.....
[18:46] <@visceralVanguard> We talked about this before
[18:46] <@visceralVanguard> Do you remember back when we were talking at my house about your mask and my book?
[18:46] <solemnSketcher> yes
[18:46] <solemnSketcher> i remember
[18:47] <@visceralVanguard> About how neither of were really capable of understanding or using well the other
[18:47] <solemnSketcher> ...
[18:47] <@visceralVanguard> About how we would need to trust each other and give each other some leeway even if we didn't really know why
[18:47] <@visceralVanguard> I took that and ran with it
[18:48] <solemnSketcher> hmmm...
[18:48] <@visceralVanguard> I never thought I would dig myself in such a whole that it would become such a problem
[18:49] <@visceralVanguard> But I was so wrong
[18:49] <@visceralVanguard> Now that I have spent all that time with you and gotten to know you, I want to say I would rather have had it this way then never getting to know you
[18:49] <@visceralVanguard> But that's so unbelievably selfish!
[18:50] <solemnSketcher> faerzen
[18:50] <@visceralVanguard> Yeah?
[18:50] <solemnSketcher> im gonna stop you right there
[18:50] <solemnSketcher> i dont want us to talk about that without... being face to face
[18:50] <@visceralVanguard> Yes..... that is probably best.
[18:51] <solemnSketcher> we were going to meet up in your planet right?
[18:51] <@visceralVanguard> Yes, I would like that very much.
[18:51] <@visceralVanguard> I don't know about that with all of the things that have happened recently; I may be tied up here.
[18:51] <@visceralVanguard> But I will let you know as soon as I know either way.
[18:52] <@visceralVanguard> I would say head to my house whenever you get the chance and I will make my way there as soon as I am able.
[18:52] <solemnSketcher> lets have a meal one again. lets discuss it over food, maybe a nice relaxing "nap"?
[18:52] <solemnSketcher> *once
[18:53] <@visceralVanguard> That does sound nice, yes.
[18:53] <solemnSketcher> it will be nice :)
[18:53] <solemnSketcher> would you mind me using the wonders of constant hot water once again?
[18:54] <@visceralVanguard> If you think you can handle it, then by all means. :)
[18:54] <@visceralVanguard> My house has a great deal of novelties in it I am sure you will find interesting or useful.
[18:54] <solemnSketcher> i hope your shower doesn't attack me once again :p
[18:54] <@visceralVanguard> Make yourself at home :)
[18:55] <solemnSketcher> :)
[18:55] <solemnSketcher> so... how about you?
[18:55] <solemnSketcher> anything you are looking forward to?
[18:56] <@visceralVanguard> in returning home?
[18:56] <@visceralVanguard> Hmmmm.
[18:57] <@visceralVanguard> Given how delicious your stew was before, I am going to have to say I am most looking forward to whatever food it is we end up making.
[18:57] <solemnSketcher> well... depends on what you like!... what kinds of stuffs do you like?
[18:58] <@visceralVanguard> I am sure whatever you make will be delicious. I tend to not be terribly picky when it comes to food!
[18:59] <solemnSketcher> :)
[19:00] <solemnSketcher> relaxing for a while would be nice... dont you think?
[19:00] <@visceralVanguard> That is what Reggie was trying to talk to me about before I fell asleep.
[19:00] <@visceralVanguard> That didn't go terribly well though, I'm afraid.
[19:01] <solemnSketcher> with all that has been going on i see how
[19:02] <@visceralVanguard> Yeah......
[19:02] <@visceralVanguard> Nick
[19:02] <@visceralVanguard> I'm doing it again.
[19:02] <@visceralVanguard> Deflecting questions.
[19:02] <solemnSketcher> perhaps you could use some water too? having hot warm water pouring into you is always relaxing
[19:03] <solemnSketcher> how so?
[19:03] <@visceralVanguard> Apparently I am still adept at it because you don't seem to have noticed off hand.
[19:03] <@visceralVanguard> I never answered your initial question.
[19:03] <@visceralVanguard> I've been trying to think of what I want to say.
[19:04] <solemnSketcher> look. lets do something real quick.
[19:04] <solemnSketcher> dont think about it
[19:04] <solemnSketcher> and just write it
[19:04] <@visceralVanguard> I haven't been able to come up with anything I even remotely find satisfactory
[19:05] <@visceralVanguard> So I will say a little bit
[19:05] <@visceralVanguard> But I think actions speak louder than words
[19:05] <@visceralVanguard> So I will cut myself off and follow through
[19:05] <@visceralVanguard> To answer your request
[19:06] <@visceralVanguard> fuck
[19:06] <@visceralVanguard> I had something
[19:06] <@visceralVanguard> now it's gone
[19:06] <solemnSketcher> this is interesting.
[19:07] <solemnSketcher> i had... never seen you like... well, like this
[19:07] <@visceralVanguard> .....
[19:07] <solemnSketcher> its so much different than in our other... well... sad moments
[19:07] <@visceralVanguard> What do you mean?
[19:08] <solemnSketcher> you actually seem to... be confused
[19:08] <@visceralVanguard> Well, you nailed that one right on the head
[19:09] <solemnSketcher> at other times there was always something to do right? there was always something to say... something to think about?
[19:10] <@visceralVanguard> All there really needs to be right now is me looking at my own heart and mind and how I feel about you and all of this.
[19:10] <@visceralVanguard> But the more I try and think about that and figure that out, the harder it is.
[19:10] <solemnSketcher> that's... one of the most important questions i was going to ask you
[19:10] <@visceralVanguard> I honestly have absolutely no fucking clue what I'm doing right now.
[19:10] <solemnSketcher> but i feel that i should leave it for when we... actually are with each other
[19:11] <@visceralVanguard> I agree
[19:11] <solemnSketcher> so... i guess... yeah
[19:12] <@visceralVanguard> Okay, well I don't really know exactly what's going to come out of my mouth or how representative it is about what I am actually feeling but I'll just go
[19:12] <@visceralVanguard> I supposed confused thoughts are better than no thoughts
[19:12] <@visceralVanguard> And along those lines I suppose the short answer to your questions is "I don't know"
[19:13] <@visceralVanguard> I want the answer to be "Absolutely. No problem."
[19:13] <@visceralVanguard> But I don't want to be so hasty to make a promise I can't keep
[19:13] <solemnSketcher> ...
[19:13] <@visceralVanguard> You don't deserve that
[19:13] <solemnSketcher> i understand.
[19:13] <solemnSketcher> an honest harsh truth is better than an empty promise
[19:13] <@visceralVanguard> I want to just say "Yes!" without a thought in the world!
[19:14] <@visceralVanguard> But I want you to know that the reason I'm not isn't because I don't trust you or anything
[19:14] <@visceralVanguard> I'm hesitating because I think I need to do some thinking about what kind of person I am and how I affect other people
[19:15] <@visceralVanguard> If you think about it, I have never actually lied to you
[19:15] <@visceralVanguard> I have been very, very careful about that!
[19:15] <@visceralVanguard> But that doesn't change anything.
[19:15] <@visceralVanguard> If anything, that just makes it worse.
[19:15] <@visceralVanguard> Anyways, I should stop talking now.
[19:15] <solemnSketcher> i must say. i admire your carefully selection of words
[19:15] <solemnSketcher> *careful
[19:16] <@visceralVanguard> I am not sure that is something you should admire
[19:16] <@visceralVanguard> Look where that has led us
[19:16] <solemnSketcher> ...
[19:16] <@visceralVanguard> Anyways, I said actions speak louder than words
[19:16] <@visceralVanguard> So here I go
[19:17] <@visceralVanguard> Even though I can't give an unequivocal "yes" answer right now
[19:17] <@visceralVanguard> I want to try and work towards that
[19:17] <@visceralVanguard> I think these are things you should know
[19:17] <solemnSketcher> and that's just what i want to hear from you.
[19:17] <@visceralVanguard> I haven't necessarily been keeping them from you as secrets
[19:18] <@visceralVanguard> But I haven't gone out of my way to tell you them either
[19:18] <@visceralVanguard> Some of them might be quite weighty topics, so I think we should hold off on discussing them in too much depth until we see each other in person
[19:18] <solemnSketcher> i agree
[19:18] <@visceralVanguard> 1. Lyra
[19:19] <@visceralVanguard> With the time I've spent with her, I've found her to be an incredibly unstable and rattled human being
[19:19] <@visceralVanguard> She has incredible drive and motivation
[19:19] <@visceralVanguard> But she is inordinately rash and careless
[19:20] <@visceralVanguard> I suspect there are a great deal more mental issues lurking under the surface, but suicidal, sociopathic, and masochistic are certainly up there
[19:20] <@visceralVanguard> I see parts of myself that I hate in her, perhaps that is why I can't seem to get along with her.
[19:20] <@visceralVanguard> Anyways, that is Lyra, so be careful around her.
[19:21] <@visceralVanguard> That also ties into what we are doing now.
[19:21] <@visceralVanguard> 2. The Trial
[19:21] <solemnSketcher> yeah. lyra is quite someone...
[19:21] <@visceralVanguard> Abyss has bound her into a contract that one of her alternate selves signed that is incredibly bad for her
[19:21] <solemnSketcher> oh lord... that darn thing
[19:22] <@visceralVanguard> We are currently having a judicial process where Lyra is protesting this
[19:22] <@visceralVanguard> My Regent book is acting as presiding judge
[19:22] <@visceralVanguard> I have been more or less forcibly put in the position of acting as Lyra's lawyer in the proceedings
[19:22] <solemnSketcher> hmmm
[19:23] <solemnSketcher> yeah... i know some of those words. i get the general idea of what you are saying
[19:23] <solemnSketcher> will this make you bound to any kind of thing?
[19:23] <@visceralVanguard> I ensured that it wouldn't before I even began
[19:23] <solemnSketcher> good.
[19:23] <@visceralVanguard> But knowing Abyss, I wouldn't be surprised if something happens anyways.
[19:24] <@visceralVanguard> If this trial fails for us, I do not even want to think of the consequences
[19:24] <solemnSketcher> if there is anyone i know that could succesfully argue against a supernatural entity it would be you
[19:24] <@visceralVanguard> The contract essentially binds Lyra's soul to Abyss if her claims fall through here
[19:25] <@visceralVanguard> I didn't want to worry you about it, but I think you should know
[19:25] <@visceralVanguard> Hiding it isn't going to change anything
[19:25] <@visceralVanguard> Perhaps you will be more ready if...... I fail
[19:25] <@visceralVanguard> More ready now that I have told you about this, that is.
[19:26] <solemnSketcher> look. as you said... you were never letting me go right?
[19:27] <@visceralVanguard> Yes, but there is little I have the power to do if a powerful dark entity rips you away from me
[19:27] <@visceralVanguard> I still don't particularly know anything about this "Abyss"
[19:27] <solemnSketcher> if your soul is bound to supernatural entities.... i would fucking tear apart heaven and hell to make sure you will be able to keep that promise
[19:28] <solemnSketcher> look. cheesy words aside, im sure you will do fine
[19:28] <solemnSketcher> you are faerzen norstov after all
[19:28] <@visceralVanguard> I hope it never comes to that then.
[19:28] <@visceralVanguard> Thank you for your encouragement :)
[19:28] <@visceralVanguard> Reggie was trying to talk to me about this before I took a nap
[19:29] <@visceralVanguard> That was also.... less than effective.
[19:29] <@visceralVanguard> I guess that leads into the next thing I want to tell you
[19:29] <@visceralVanguard> 3. Reggie (crown)
[19:30] <@visceralVanguard> Reggie is an empath, sensing emotions and feelings around him. He feels emotions especially strongly if those emotions are suppressed or hidden in someone
[19:30] <@visceralVanguard> If you wear the crown, Reggie is able to manipulate your emotions and feelings
[19:30] <@visceralVanguard> To a limited extent, with your permission, even your actions
[19:31] <solemnSketcher> so...
[19:31] <@visceralVanguard> I am reasonably certain that Reggie's motives are positive, in our favor, but they are still risky abilities to have
[19:31] <solemnSketcher> i guess he brought up something you didn't want to know?
[19:32] <@visceralVanguard> Not really, no
[19:32] <@visceralVanguard> Reggie, because of all of his emotional connections, is a very, very sensitive being
[19:32] <@visceralVanguard> Being around Lyra all of the time took its toll on him and he felt immensely guilty and like a failure for not being able to fix and help Lyra
[19:33] <@visceralVanguard> I took Reggie from Lyra to attempt to defuse the situation, and it worked
[19:33] <@visceralVanguard> I have been wearing Reggie since then.
[19:33] <@visceralVanguard> He has been very respectful
[19:33] <@visceralVanguard> Especially when it comes to boundaries
[19:33] <@visceralVanguard> However, before my nap, we got talking
[19:34] <@visceralVanguard> About this trial, about Lyra, about you, about everything that has happened recently
[19:34] <@visceralVanguard> I basically lost it right there in the gas station.
[19:34] <@visceralVanguard> Crawling up to that mattress to sleep was basically the most I could do at the time I was such a mess.
[19:36] <solemnSketcher> are... are you completely ok faerzen?
[19:36] <@visceralVanguard> I never said I was okay
[19:36] <@visceralVanguard> Right now I can assure you I am nowhere near okay
[19:36] <solemnSketcher> sigh... i know.
[19:36] <@visceralVanguard> But that doesn't matter, we have a case to fight.
[19:36] <solemnSketcher> this is just... are you worse than when we started this conversation?
[19:37] <@visceralVanguard> I.... don't know
[19:37] <@visceralVanguard> I don't think so?
[19:37] <@visceralVanguard> I think it has been good getting these off of my chest
[19:38] <@visceralVanguard> I am beginning to wonder if it will ever be physically possible to be "okay" again
[19:38] <@visceralVanguard> But that is a whole different topic I would rather not delve into now
[19:39] <solemnSketcher> faerzen...
[19:40] <solemnSketcher> i want you to be ok. i want us to be okay.
[19:40] <solemnSketcher> i just fucking want to finish this game
[19:40] <@visceralVanguard> Me too!
[19:41] <@visceralVanguard> I know for a fact it is possible for us to complete this game successfully
[19:41] <solemnSketcher> ...do... you want... us?
[19:41] <@visceralVanguard> What I do not know is at what cost it will be
[19:41] <@visceralVanguard> What do you mean?
[19:41] <solemnSketcher> do you think it would be possible?
[19:41] <solemnSketcher> for us to actually stay... togheter?
[19:42] <@visceralVanguard> Oh, that is what you mean by "us"
[19:42] <@visceralVanguard> Again, I am going to have to say "I don't know"
[19:42] <@visceralVanguard> I want the answer to be "Yes!"
[19:42] <solemnSketcher> ...i am afraid that at the present moment i am in the same situation
[19:42] <@visceralVanguard> But I know that is just a ball of selfish egotism speaking and I don't want to just hide more problems that will only end up hurting you more
[19:43] <@visceralVanguard> We should talk about this more in person, I think
[19:43] <solemnSketcher> yes.
[19:43] <solemnSketcher> please
[19:43] <@visceralVanguard> I don't think I will have any clearer thoughts on the matter then than I do now, but oh well.
[19:44] <solemnSketcher> as i said earlier... lets discuss it over a meal.
[19:44] <@visceralVanguard> Talking about knowing it is possible for us to win the game......
[19:44] <@visceralVanguard> There is something I have been saving for last.
[19:44] <@visceralVanguard> I have been putting it off because I think it is going to be the hardest for me to say.
[19:45] <@visceralVanguard> If I am correct in my suppositions, it is also probably going to be the hardest for you to hear as well.
[19:45] <@visceralVanguard> I will not lie or hide the fact that I have intentionally and actively been attempting to hide this bit of information from you.
[19:46] <@visceralVanguard> Again, I told myself it was in your best interest, but we both know how absolutely fucking terrible of an excuse that is now.
[19:46] <@visceralVanguard> I do not know how you will react, and I can ask you not to overreact, but that would only be even more hypocritical of me.
[19:47] <@visceralVanguard> The doomed version of yourself from that timeline that killed everyone. The timeline you met Faerzen and Byron from?
[19:47] <@visceralVanguard> He is here.
[19:47] <solemnSketcher> <no response at first>
[19:47] <@visceralVanguard> Well, not anymore. But he was.
[19:48] <solemnSketcher> <still no response>
[19:48] <@visceralVanguard> I don't know how he got to be here, but he was banished far, far away.
[19:49] <@visceralVanguard> Reggie has assured me he is of no concern for the time being, but I still want you to know.
[19:49] <@visceralVanguard> Of all people who should know, I feel it should be you.
[19:49] <solemnSketcher> ...thanks for letting me know...
[19:49] <@visceralVanguard> How.... are you doing?
[19:50] <solemnSketcher> i... am not sure...
[19:50] <solemnSketcher> this... is a weird emotion... yes, its anger... but... it feels... different
[19:50] <solemnSketcher> yes... its...
[19:51] <solemnSketcher> its just something
[19:51] <@visceralVanguard> I don't even expect you to know how you're feeling about this
[19:51] <@visceralVanguard> I certainly don't know how I feel.
[19:52] <@visceralVanguard> I do want to say one thing that I have said before
[19:57] <@visceralVanguard> I think it is quite a bit more applicable now than it was before however, considering that your alternate self is physically here now. You are not responsible for anything he did or that he will do.
[19:58] <solemnSketcher> ...well... that's something
[19:58] <@visceralVanguard> I don't know what he has been doing, where he is, or who he has talked to, but I do know he has been face to face with Lyra, both Regents, and I
[19:58] <@visceralVanguard> He and Lyra spent a substantial amount of time together, actually
[19:59] <solemnSketcher> im... im not even surprised
[19:59] <solemnSketcher> ill have to question lyra about this after this settles down
[20:01] <@visceralVanguard> Please do not tell Lyra I told you this next bit of information, but I think it would also be helpful for you to know.
[20:01] <solemnSketcher> so... what is he like?
[20:01] <@visceralVanguard> While the two of them were together, he had a set of clothes made for you.
[20:01] <solemnSketcher> what
[20:01] <@visceralVanguard> I believe Lyra intends to pass them on to you at some point.
[20:01] <solemnSketcher> like... what?
[20:02] <solemnSketcher> uhh...
[20:02] <@visceralVanguard> Despite their origins, I can assure you they are normal clothes.
[20:02] <solemnSketcher> clothes?
[20:02] <@visceralVanguard> They are not a secret attempt at killing you or driving them insane.
[20:02] <@visceralVanguard> I saw them being made myself.
[20:02] <solemnSketcher> but... why, what?
[20:02] <@visceralVanguard> I do not know why.
[20:02] <solemnSketcher> this is way more surprising than him being here
[20:03] <@visceralVanguard> To answer your question about what he is like.
[20:03] <@visceralVanguard> I believe the most succinct answer I can give you is "unpredictable"
[20:03] <solemnSketcher> oh
[20:03] <@visceralVanguard> It is not entirely accurate as I have been able to predict some of his motives, but it is essentially correct.
[20:04] <@visceralVanguard> One thing that is quite predictable about him, however, is you.
[20:04] <@visceralVanguard> In everything he has done and said to Lyra and I, he has always gone out of his way to protect you.
[20:04] <solemnSketcher> he's still me after all
[20:04] <solemnSketcher> ...
[20:05] <solemnSketcher> look at the screen on sabath.
[20:06] <solemnSketcher> i... there's no words to describe my expression
[20:06]  * visceralVanguard pulls up SABATH on her e-glasses
[20:07] <solemnSketcher> <if you look, nick is literally making a :l >
[20:07] <solemnSketcher> <he looks rather funny>
[20:08] <@visceralVanguard> I.... I don't really know what to say, so I suppose I'll clarify a little bit more?
[20:08] <solemnSketcher> that's... umm... well...
[20:08] <solemnSketcher> clothes? protecting me? what. the. actual. fuckity. fuck
[20:08] <@visceralVanguard> He has gone out of his way to try and hide his physical existence here from you.
[20:08] <solemnSketcher> now what, is it my birthday?
[20:09] <@visceralVanguard> He forbade Lyra of telling you where the clothes came from
[20:09] <@visceralVanguard> When we spoke, he told not to tell you about it
[20:10] <solemnSketcher> well. he is quite something.
[20:10] <@visceralVanguard> Indeed.
[20:10] <solemnSketcher> i see why. i would just go paranoid and or angry
[20:11] <solemnSketcher> so... question
[20:11] <solemnSketcher> does he have wings?
[20:12] <@visceralVanguard> Yes, in a way.
[20:12] <@visceralVanguard> He has physical black wings like yours, yes, however, one of them has been removed and the other seems quite injured.
[20:13] <solemnSketcher> oh... that brings up questions
[20:13] <@visceralVanguard> I do not know what caused the physical damage to them, however.
[20:13] <solemnSketcher> but we atleast know he got them in first place.
[20:14] <solemnSketcher> ...i want to talk to him
[20:14] <@visceralVanguard> I think that this is a whole new realm of discussion right now that we very much need to dig into, but we should probably wait until we are together in person.
[20:14] <@visceralVanguard> I don't even know what to say in response to that, Nick.
[20:15] <solemnSketcher> you dont have to answer
[20:15] <@visceralVanguard> He was surprisingly benevolent towards you when we talked, but he was also terrifying to me.
[20:15] <solemnSketcher> faerzen... can i idolize you once again?
[20:15] <@visceralVanguard> Why do you ask that?
[20:15] <@visceralVanguard> You know what my answer is going to be.
[20:16] <solemnSketcher> i do not
[20:16] <@visceralVanguard> Okay, well then please answer my question of "Why?".
[20:16] <solemnSketcher> i know not much of how things are going to be now
[20:17] <solemnSketcher> because i like doing it. complimenting you makes me happy
[20:18] <solemnSketcher> its just nice
[20:18] <@visceralVanguard> Okay.... I suppose, thanks? :)
[20:19] <@visceralVanguard> My answer is however still going to have to be no. Further feeding my baseless ego is not something that would be beneficial to anyone, especially you.
[20:19] <solemnSketcher> i.. guess so? :)
[20:19] <solemnSketcher> alright then
[20:19] <@visceralVanguard> Compliments are fine, but idolizing me is never going to end well.
[20:20] <solemnSketcher> in that case... before i properly begin searching for any threat nearby
[20:20] <solemnSketcher> faerzen
[20:20] <solemnSketcher> i love you
[20:21] <@visceralVanguard> I love you too, Nick. :)
[20:21] <solemnSketcher> i... guess i should go search now
[20:21] <@visceralVanguard> Stay safe please!
[20:21] <solemnSketcher> ..thats... faerzen... thanks
[20:21] <solemnSketcher> you too
[20:21] <@visceralVanguard> I shall try my best.
[20:22] <@visceralVanguard> I hope for everyone's sakes that it works.
[20:22] <solemnSketcher> <if you look at the screen you would be seeing nick wiping his eyes with his remaining sleeve)
[20:23] <solemnSketcher> hey. faerzen, you... you should get you hair untangled
[20:23] <solemnSketcher> it has been trough a few things and the messy look doesn't really suit you
[20:24] <@visceralVanguard> Hehehehe, I haven't looked in a mirror in a while
[20:24] <@visceralVanguard> Are you okay?
[20:24] <solemnSketcher> well... if you wanted, i could do yoir hair
[20:24] <solemnSketcher> yeah. im okay
[20:25] <@visceralVanguard> I can still see you on the screen here.
[20:25] <solemnSketcher> im still not getting used to hearing that
[20:25] <solemnSketcher> i just get emotional :)
[20:26] <solemnSketcher> <nick is faintly smiling in the screen, waving at the air>
[20:27] <@visceralVanguard> Hi there, Nick :)
[20:27] <@visceralVanguard> Believe me, I am not faring any better over here myself.
[20:27] <solemnSketcher> hi there, faerzen :)
[20:28] <@visceralVanguard> Okay, I should get going back to figure out this dumb trial
[20:28] <solemnSketcher> yeah... good luck faerzen
[20:29] <@visceralVanguard> Let me know if you need anything, and I shall see you at my house soon. :)
[20:29] <solemnSketcher> well... we'll see there
[20:29] <solemnSketcher> :)
[20:29] <@visceralVanguard> What is that supposed to mean?
[20:30] <solemnSketcher> that im gonna hug the fuck out of you?
[20:30] <solemnSketcher> and that is just if you want. of course
[20:31] <@visceralVanguard> I think a hug would be quite nice, yes
[20:31] <@visceralVanguard> I was stuck hugging myself with my wings before I took a nap, and that didn't quite cut it.
[20:31] <solemnSketcher> :)
[20:31] <@visceralVanguard> I will see you soon then for hugs. :)
[20:31] <@visceralVanguard> Talk to you later, Nick.
[20:32] <solemnSketcher> talk to you later faerzen
[20:32]  * visceralVanguard bid farewell to solemnSketcher
[20:32] <solemnSketcher> oh. quick question
[20:32] <solemnSketcher> what's your middle name?
[20:32] <solemnSketcher> oh.
