  4. [01:07] <voltaireMortis> VM: Wwhich one wwere you again? The chess idiot?
  5. [01:07] <ailurAlliance> AA: No.
  6. [01:08] <voltaireMortis> VM: Ahh so the one wwith spelling problems
  7. [01:08] <ailurAlliance> AA: The other one.
  8. [01:08] <ailurAlliance> AA: I guess? I can't recall what I misspelt though.
  9. [01:09] <ailurAlliance> AA: Anyway, how are you?
  10. [01:09] <voltaireMortis> VM: Something about friends? Don't remember noww
  11. [01:09] <voltaireMortis> VM: Not too bad just got back, you?
  12. [01:09] <voltaireMortis> VM: I see you still havven't fixed your trollHandle
  13. [01:10] <ailurAlliance> AA: Same. Had to go out and actually do a few things.
  14. [01:10] <ailurAlliance> AA: I don't get out much.
  15. [01:10] <ailurAlliance> AA: And my handle is fine as it is.
  16. [01:11] <voltaireMortis> VM: Nope full of glitchy looking artifacts that buzz
  17. [01:11] <voltaireMortis> VM: Not wwhat I wwould call normal
  18. [01:11] <ailurAlliance> AA: That's crazy. It does not look like that, AT ALL, on my end.
  19. [01:12] <ailurAlliance> AA: Is that why you couldn't tell us apart?
  20. [01:12] <ailurAlliance> AA: Or did you just forget and do the colors show up correctly?
  21. [01:12] <voltaireMortis> VM: No I'm just lazy, I could make out the ailurAlliance and...
  22. [01:12] <voltaireMortis> VM: chaturangaCaller?
  23. [01:12] <voltaireMortis> VM: I think it wwas?
  24. [01:13] <ailurAlliance> AA: Yes, that sounds right.
  25. [01:13] <voltaireMortis> VM: Wwhen one of you twwo trolls is going on and on and on about chess
  26. [01:14] <voltaireMortis> VM: Makes it easy to differentiate
  27. [01:15] <ailurAlliance> AA: Yeah, he seemed pretty obsessed about that game.
  28. [01:15] <voltaireMortis> VM: And clearly didn't knoww howw to play
  29. [01:15] <ailurAlliance> AA: I mean, I play it, as a pastime, but that was a little much.
  30. [01:15] <ailurAlliance> AA: Yes. Who even sacrifices their king?
  31. [01:16] <ailurAlliance> AA: That's not even allowed in proper chess.
  32. [01:16] <voltaireMortis> VM: He does apparently
  33. [01:16] <voltaireMortis> VM: Along with (I imagine) people wwho don't knoww howw to play chess
  34. [01:17] <ailurAlliance> AA: He needs to stop seeing the word as an 8x8 grid with tiny mindless figures on it.
  35. [01:17] <voltaireMortis> VM: Yeah I hear 16x16 is wwhere it's at
  36. [01:18] <ailurAlliance> AA: I prefer to see the world not in a grid at all. It's rather limiting.
  37. [01:18] <voltaireMortis> VM: It can help wwith tactics
  38. [01:19] <voltaireMortis> VM: But thinking outside the grid is wwhere it's really at
  39. [01:19] <ailurAlliance> AA: Amen to that.
  40. [01:20] <ailurAlliance> AA: I know you use it for cheating, but that's exactly why I find a grid like that restrictive.
  41. [01:20] <ailurAlliance> AA: You should be allowed to walk in between the squares. You shouldn't be frowned at for it.
  42. [01:20] <voltaireMortis> VM: "Shrug" Cheating wwas kind of a strong wword
  43. [01:21] <ailurAlliance> AA: I agree. It's merely defying the boundary of expectation.
  44. [01:21] <voltaireMortis> VM: Doing wwhat the other guy doesn't expect is an important part of wwarfare right?
  45. [01:21] <ailurAlliance> AA: I'm not an expert.
  46. [01:21] <voltaireMortis> VM: That's all that is
  47. [01:21] <ailurAlliance> AA: But I'd be crazy if I answered no.
  48. [01:22] <voltaireMortis> VM: I'm sure it's in "The Art of Wwar" somewwhere
  49. [01:22] <voltaireMortis> VM: Not a classical reader apparently
  50. [01:23] <ailurAlliance> AA: I don't like war, but it can be very interesting.
  51. [01:23] <voltaireMortis> VM: So wwhat DO you like?
  52. [01:24] <voltaireMortis> VM: CC seemed fixated on chess
  53. [01:24] <ailurAlliance> AA: Mostly animated movies and tv series.
  54. [01:24] <voltaireMortis> VM: Such as?
  55. [01:25] <ailurAlliance> AA: A few that come to mind are Spirited Away, Princess Mononoke, Chaos;Head, Steins;Gate, One Piece and Cowboy Bebop.
  56. [01:25] <ailurAlliance> AA: But I've seen many more.
  57. [01:25] <voltaireMortis> VM: Nevver heard of ANY of those
  58. [01:26] <ailurAlliance> AA: I'd be surprised if you had.
  59. [01:26] <ailurAlliance> AA: I'm noticing a trend.
  60. [01:26] <ailurAlliance> AA: It's almost as if you're not from this world.
  61. [01:26] <ailurAlliance> AA: But that would be stupid.
  62. [01:26] <voltaireMortis> VM: Pff
  63. [01:26] <ailurAlliance> AA: We speak the same language.
  64. [01:27] <voltaireMortis> VM: Yeah, wwas about to say it's like you're on another planet
  65. [01:27] <voltaireMortis> VM: Hey wwhat's Cowboy Bebop about?
  66. [01:28] <voltaireMortis> VM: Name reminds me of something
  67. [01:28] <ailurAlliance> AA: It's about some people who are doing bounty hunting in space, basically.
  68. [01:28] <ailurAlliance> AA: It has great music.
  69. [01:29] <voltaireMortis> VM: Huh, anything like Cowwgrub Bebop?
  70. [01:29] <voltaireMortis> VM: Sounds similar
  71. [01:29] <ailurAlliance> AA: Never heard of it.
  72. [01:30] <voltaireMortis> VM: Shrug wwhatevver
  73. [01:30] <voltaireMortis> VM: Kinda used to the fact that you twwo livve in cavves anywway
  74. [01:30] <ailurAlliance> AA: You know, I'm really impressed.
  75. [01:31] <voltaireMortis> VM: Wwith my vverbosity?
  76. [01:31] <ailurAlliance> AA: No, it's like...
  77. [01:31] <voltaireMortis> VM: My startling charisma?
  78. [01:32] <ailurAlliance> AA: I know you're being facetious about all this stuff, but I can't help but buy into your story more and more.
  79. [01:32] <voltaireMortis> VM: My outraygeous ability to put up wwith you?
  80. [01:32] <ailurAlliance> AA: More like that.
  81. [01:32] <ailurAlliance> AA: And that last one too, hah.
  82. [01:32] <voltaireMortis> VM: Wwhat story?
  83. [01:33] <ailurAlliance> AA: Everything you're telling me. I know it's false. It has to be. But all the things you say just sort of fall into place as you say them...
  84. [01:33] <voltaireMortis> VM: And you're being wwierd again
  85. [01:33] <ailurAlliance> AA: It doesn't feel like you lie at all. It feels like you're telling me the truth...
  86. [01:33] <ailurAlliance> AA: Whatever.
  87. [01:33] <voltaireMortis> VM: Took longer than last time
  88. [01:34] <voltaireMortis> VM: Fuck, wwhat the fuck wwould I be lying about?
  89. [01:34] <voltaireMortis> VM: Seriously you and CC make no fucking sense
  90. [01:35] <ailurAlliance> AA: About not knowing all these things you should, and proposing this whole alternate history...
  91. [01:35] <ailurAlliance> AA: It's hard for me to understand. But I'm no longer convinced you're lying about it.
  92. [01:35] <voltaireMortis> VM: Hey you're the idiot wwho's spouting gibberish
  93. [01:36] <ailurAlliance> AA: The way you tell me these things, is too natural.
  94. [01:36] <voltaireMortis> VM: If this is another stab at trolling it's pretty pathetic
  95. [01:36] <ailurAlliance> AA: Could it be magic, connecting us from across world lines?
  96. [01:36] <ailurAlliance> AA: I mean, no.
  97. [01:36] <ailurAlliance> AA: World lines are bullshit.
  98. [01:37] <ailurAlliance> AA: It still could be magic though.
  99. [01:37] <voltaireMortis> VM: Magic's not real and this isn't any psionic stuff
  100. [01:37] <voltaireMortis> VM: Wwe're talking through a fucking chat client
  101. [01:37] <voltaireMortis> VM: "Pesterchum" apparently
  102. [01:38] <ailurAlliance> AA: Look, I know that you think YOU, know everything here, but would it kill you to consider, that maybe there's more to the universe than you thought?
  103. [01:38] <ailurAlliance> AA: Magic isn't a skill you just learn. It's a force of nature.
  104. [01:39] <voltaireMortis> VM: Wwhat is this hippy crap
  105. [01:39] <voltaireMortis> VM: Okay and back to trolling again
  106. [01:39] <voltaireMortis> "Fucking fuck"
  107. [01:40] <ailurAlliance> AA: That's kind of rude.
  108. [01:40] <ailurAlliance> AA: I'm used to worse though.
  109. [01:41] <voltaireMortis> VM: You mentioned, maybe, I don't remember could havve been the other idiot
  110. [01:42] <ailurAlliance> AA: I don't really know what to say to an attitude like this sometimes.
  111. [01:43] <ailurAlliance> AA: Still, I enjoy our conversation.
  112. [01:43] <voltaireMortis> VM: Grah, sorry I'vve been irritable as of late
  113. [01:44] <ailurAlliance> AA: Well, you're not alone.
  114. [01:44] <ailurAlliance> AA: I often get mocked. It gets on my nerves.
  115. [01:44] <ailurAlliance> AA: So I should apologize, too.
  116. [01:45] <voltaireMortis> VM: Howw do you take it?
  117. [01:45] <ailurAlliance> AA: They don't know me. They're flinging insults at a picture in their heads.
  118. [01:46] <voltaireMortis> VM: Okay may wwant to explain things a little more there
  119. [01:47] <ailurAlliance> AA: I'm mocked for being strange and awkward, and not going out a lot.
  120. [01:48] <ailurAlliance> AA: I am mocked for my interests, and for my lack of guardians to look after me. They're almost always away.
  121. [01:48] <ailurAlliance> AA: But that's just what they see when they look at me.
  122. [01:48] <voltaireMortis> VM: And these trolls care wwhy? I'm going to go out on a limb here and assume you're a lowwer caste?
  123. [01:49] <ailurAlliance> AA: I'll finish first and then answer your question.
  124. [01:49] <voltaireMortis> VM: They care enough to mock you, but not enough to cull you?
  125. [01:49] <voltaireMortis> VM: This Europe is a silly place
  126. [01:50] <ailurAlliance> AA: I am a person who can do things. I train my strength, I take care of the house, I go to school, I'm a responsible person.
  127. [01:50] <ailurAlliance> AA: That's what people can't see when they haven't even spoken to me for more than a minute.
  128. [01:50] <ailurAlliance> AA: And that's why their insults are not aimed at me.
  129. [01:50] <ailurAlliance> AA: They're aimed at someone who doesn't exist.
  130. [01:51] <ailurAlliance> AA: Because the person they think I am is not real.
  131. [01:51] <ailurAlliance> AA: Now, for your question... I, well, I don't know.
  132. [01:51] <ailurAlliance> AA: I already said I'm a midclassman.
  133. [01:52] <voltaireMortis> VM: Wwhat's a school, wwhat's a house, and wwhere is your lusus in all this?
  134. [01:52] <voltaireMortis> VM: Still don't knoww what that is
  135. [01:53] <ailurAlliance> AA: A school is where you're taught things that will help you survive. A house is where you live. I know you call it a castle, but that should not be hard to grasp.
  136. [01:53] <ailurAlliance> A midclassman is someone of middle standing. And I don't know what a lusus is.
  137. [01:54] <ailurAlliance> AA: Does that make sense?
  138. [01:54] <voltaireMortis> VM: No I call it a hivve, my hivve is a castle, and your lusus is your guardian
  139. [01:55] <voltaireMortis> VM: Your "school" clearly isn't doing a good job
  140. [01:55] <ailurAlliance> AA: My "lusus" are both away most of the time. I'm lucky if I get to see them more than a handful times a month.
  141. [01:56] <voltaireMortis> VM: Followw up wwhy do you havve twwo and wwhy are they awway they're supposed to be in or at least near your hivve
  142. [01:57] <ailurAlliance> AA: Well, they have jobs that keep them travelling. And doesn't everyone have two?
  143. [01:58] <ailurAlliance> AA: Ah, I don't mean to be sensitive.
  144. [01:58] <voltaireMortis> VM: Ugh it's like wwe're talking in fucking circles
  145. [01:58] <ailurAlliance> AA: insensitive*
  146. [01:58] <voltaireMortis> VM: Wwhat the fuck is a job
  147. [01:58] <ailurAlliance> AA: Did something happen to one of your parents?
  148. [01:59] <voltaireMortis> VM: And I'vve nevver met anyone wwith twwo lusi
  149. [01:59] <voltaireMortis> VM: And again WWHAT THE FUCK IS A PARENT
  150. [02:00] <ailurAlliance> AA: A job is something you do to survive. You perform assigned tasks, and get money. Then you can exchange that money, for things you need.
  151. [02:00] <ailurAlliance> AA: A parent is a guardian.
  152. [02:01] <ailurAlliance> AA: I thought it was the same as what you call a lusus.
  153. [02:01] <ailurAlliance> AA: But now I am not sure.
  154. [02:01] <voltaireMortis> VM: A lusus is a wwild animal that adopts you as a grub
  155. [02:02] <ailurAlliance> AA: And you're a grub when you're young?
  156. [02:02] <voltaireMortis> VM: I havve no FUCKING CLUE AS TO WWHAT YOU'RE ON ABOUT
  157. [02:02] <voltaireMortis> VM: YES I WWAS BORN A GRUB AND RAISED BY MY FUCKING LUSUS
  158. [02:03] <ailurAlliance> AA: That is not how things work here.
  159. [02:03] <ailurAlliance> AA: I made a mistake.
  160. [02:03] <voltaireMortis> VM: IN A CASTLE THAT WWAS APPARENTLY MADE IN EUROPE
  161. [02:03] <ailurAlliance> AA: I don't have two lusi.
  162. [02:03] <ailurAlliance> AA: I have none.
  163. [02:03] <ailurAlliance> AA: Parents and lusi are different.
  164. [02:04] <voltaireMortis> VM: That's it I'm out
  165. [02:04] <ailurAlliance> AA: How do I explain...
  166. [02:04] <ailurAlliance> AA: Wait.
  167. [02:04] <voltaireMortis> voltaireMortis ceased trolling ailurAlliance
  168. [02:06] <voltaireMortis> ==END==
