Some Sort Of Death Spiral

* epinephrineElectrified has connected to the memo
<alkalineTonic> Hello.
<bobbedNonsense> uh is that a 'hello' or a 'help' being typoed?
<bobbedNonsense> hi merciful, hi epi
<bobbedNonsense> <3 for the former
<alkalineTonic> It isz a hello.
<epinephrineElectrified> I absolutely cannot /wait/ to get into session
<alkalineTonic> And an unfortunate typo.
<bobbedNonsense> pre winding on far too long?
<epinephrineElectrified> Yeah, pretty much.
<epinephrineElectrified> Also two of my coplayers may or may not merge when they approach twenty feet of each other, but that I can probably deal with when it happens.
<epinephrineElectrified> Long story.
<bobbedNonsense> sounds like an interesting one
<alkalineTonic> That szoundsz like an alarming one.

* epinephrineElectrified PMs bobbedNonsense (You know, it would've been bad enough had there /not/ been a thunderstorm and a tornado warning while I was driving through Kansas.)
* bobbedNonsense PMs epinephrineElectrified : ( oh jeez )
* epinephrineElectrified PMs bobbedNonsense (I can't say it ended well.)
* bobbedNonsense PMs epinephrineElectrified : ( what happened? )
* epinephrineElectrified PMs bobbedNonsense (The thunder put me on edge enough that I had to go outside. It was raining. Then there issued the warning and everyone had to go into the basement.)
* epinephrineElectrified PMs bobbedNonsense (Unfortunately, someone noticed I was outside.)
* bobbedNonsense PMs epinephrineElectrified : ( so they made you join them? )
* epinephrineElectrified PMs bobbedNonsense (well, yeah)
* bobbedNonsense PMs epinephrineElectrified : ( so why were you driving through kansas? )
* epinephrineElectrified PMs bobbedNonsense (news from coplayers)
* epinephrineElectrified PMs bobbedNonsense (but i'm not)
* epinephrineElectrified PMs bobbedNonsense (supposed to talk about it)
<bobbedNonsense> [...huh.]
* epinephrineElectrified PMs bobbedNonsense (i'm not supposed to talk about it and i'm pretty sure ross would nail me to a wall if i tried but i can't but i can't not but i can't)
* bobbedNonsense PMs epinephrineElectrified : ( and you're... complying? )
* epinephrineElectrified PMs bobbedNonsense (i'm)
* epinephrineElectrified PMs bobbedNonsense (okay fine)
* epinephrineElectrified PMs bobbedNonsense (one of my coplayers stole all the memories from the other coplayer)
* epinephrineElectrified PMs bobbedNonsense (do you know what the best part is?)
* bobbedNonsense PMs epinephrineElectrified : ( no? )
* epinephrineElectrified PMs bobbedNonsense (it was myra and her pet thief of mind that did it)
* epinephrineElectrified PMs bobbedNonsense (myra was remaking herself)
<bobbedNonsense> [Blink.]
* epinephrineElectrified PMs bobbedNonsense (just like mindblogger)
* epinephrineElectrified PMs bobbedNonsense (and it worked)
* epinephrineElectrified PMs bobbedNonsense (why did it work for her and it didn't get to work for aelf)
<bobbedNonsense> ["...oh my god."]
* epinephrineElectrified PMs bobbedNonsense (oh god echo is going to kill me now)
* bobbedNonsense PMs epinephrineElectrified : ( hey hey i'm not going to tell anyone i swear )
* epinephrineElectrified PMs bobbedNonsense (please)
* epinephrineElectrified PMs bobbedNonsense (please don't)
* epinephrineElectrified PMs bobbedNonsense (yeah)
* epinephrineElectrified PMs bobbedNonsense (uh)
* bobbedNonsense PMs epinephrineElectrified : ( /me offers hugs )
* epinephrineElectrified PMs bobbedNonsense (fucking hell)
* epinephrineElectrified PMs bobbedNonsense (hugs then)
* epinephrineElectrified PMs bobbedNonsense (sure that works)
* epinephrineElectrified PMs bobbedNonsense (it isn't fair why didn't mindblogger get the same chance)
* epinephrineElectrified PMs bobbedNonsense (it isn't /fair/)
* bobbedNonsense PMs epinephrineElectrified : ( i don't know )
* epinephrineElectrified PMs bobbedNonsense (and what)
* epinephrineElectrified PMs bobbedNonsense (what do i do with the coplayer that has myra's head on her shoulders now)
* epinephrineElectrified PMs bobbedNonsense (what do i do with the one that should be myra's body but isn't anymore because someone else is living in it)
* bobbedNonsense PMs epinephrineElectrified : ( unless things got deleted in the thief, it's not just going to be myra- it's still a different person, even if she carries myra's knowledge with her, and that's even if she can /access/ it )
* epinephrineElectrified PMs bobbedNonsense (she can)
* epinephrineElectrified PMs bobbedNonsense (she holds herself some of the same ways)
* epinephrineElectrified PMs bobbedNonsense (it's)
* epinephrineElectrified PMs bobbedNonsense (actually i think that might be why i reacted so viciously to her at the beginning)
* bobbedNonsense PMs epinephrineElectrified : ( picked up the similarities, even before you were told the whole story? )
* epinephrineElectrified PMs bobbedNonsense (yeah)
* epinephrineElectrified PMs bobbedNonsense (but at first i thought it was because she was)
* epinephrineElectrified PMs bobbedNonsense (mentored by her too)
* epinephrineElectrified PMs bobbedNonsense (but it's /not/)
* epinephrineElectrified PMs bobbedNonsense (so)
* epinephrineElectrified PMs bobbedNonsense (skaia above i really /am/ that crazy to the mundanes)
* bobbedNonsense PMs epinephrineElectrified : ( are the nonplayers getting up in your business? )
* epinephrineElectrified PMs bobbedNonsense (someone asked awkward questions until I mentioned 'PTSD' and insinuated i didn't want to talk about the war)
* epinephrineElectrified PMs bobbedNonsense (and then someone /else/ wanted to talk about the war and i just)
* bobbedNonsense PMs epinephrineElectrified : ( like 'veteran to veteran'? )
* epinephrineElectrified PMs bobbedNonsense (wrong kind of veteran)
* bobbedNonsense PMs epinephrineElectrified : ( mhmm )
* bobbedNonsense PMs epinephrineElectrified : ( are you still stuck in the basement? )
* epinephrineElectrified PMs bobbedNonsense (no)
* epinephrineElectrified PMs bobbedNonsense (we got out early this morning)
* epinephrineElectrified PMs bobbedNonsense (but only after the power went out)
* epinephrineElectrified PMs bobbedNonsense (this town's built around a military base called fort riley)
* epinephrineElectrified PMs bobbedNonsense (i tried taking pictures but someone shooed me off because you're not supposed to take pictures of military installations apparently)
* bobbedNonsense PMs epinephrineElectrified : ( huh )
* epinephrineElectrified PMs bobbedNonsense (i do have one picture and it's already in a cf newspost but i'm not making a cf newspost about shuddering in the corner of the hotel basement in an unwashed pile of towels because of a fucking /thunderstorm/)
* epinephrineElectrified PMs bobbedNonsense (that's just)
<epinephrineElectrified> ['Pathetic' doesn't seem to have the right ring to it.]
<bobbedNonsense> [Wait. You want to see what word he does pick.]
<epinephrineElectrified> [You'll just...]
<epinephrineElectrified> [Leave that statement hanging.]
<bobbedNonsense> [After a while, you sigh, and start typing again.]
* bobbedNonsense PMs epinephrineElectrified : ( it's not shameful to get rocked by presessions )
* bobbedNonsense PMs epinephrineElectrified : ( and if there are any twits who want to say otherwise, they're idiots and/or haven't played long enough to understand that )
* epinephrineElectrified PMs bobbedNonsense (i even couldn't keep my mouth shut when trying to close mindblogger's accounts, i /had/ to start talking about the way she died to that pits admin)
* epinephrineElectrified PMs bobbedNonsense (and then he went and told my coplayers that he was worried i was in some sort of)
* epinephrineElectrified PMs bobbedNonsense (death spiral?)
* epinephrineElectrified PMs bobbedNonsense (that sounds dumb but whatever)
* epinephrineElectrified PMs bobbedNonsense (that this was the thing that would break me conclusively)
* epinephrineElectrified PMs bobbedNonsense (i am mostly consoled by the fact that he's definitely wrong)
* epinephrineElectrified PMs bobbedNonsense (because if anything's breaking me conclusively it will be the entire fiasco with what-used-to-be-myra)
* bobbedNonsense PMs epinephrineElectrified : ( i'm glad to hear the former thing isn't going to break you, but i still think you can survive this )
* epinephrineElectrified PMs bobbedNonsense (i seriously didn't consider that this might be the thing to kill me until he mentioned it)
<bobbedNonsense> [Rub your eyes, not sure what to say.]
* bobbedNonsense PMs epinephrineElectrified : ( have you talked to the one who has myra's memories? about the whole thing? )
* epinephrineElectrified PMs bobbedNonsense (she told me two days ago)
* epinephrineElectrified PMs bobbedNonsense (then i panicked, stuck the other coplayer into a potted plant, and drove out of town)
* epinephrineElectrified PMs bobbedNonsense (and then kept driving)
* epinephrineElectrified PMs bobbedNonsense (until i ran out of gas)
* epinephrineElectrified PMs bobbedNonsense (which is why i'm in kansas)
* bobbedNonsense PMs epinephrineElectrified : ( have you messaged any of them since you left? )
* epinephrineElectrified PMs bobbedNonsense (no)
* epinephrineElectrified PMs bobbedNonsense (too scared to)
* bobbedNonsense PMs epinephrineElectrified : ( what're you scared will happen? )
* epinephrineElectrified PMs bobbedNonsense (i'll make everything worse)
* epinephrineElectrified PMs bobbedNonsense (again)
* bobbedNonsense PMs epinephrineElectrified : ( letting them know that you're alive is not going to make things worse, i think )
* bobbedNonsense PMs epinephrineElectrified : ( do you have somewhere to stay in fort riley- or can you find somewhere? )
* epinephrineElectrified PMs bobbedNonsense (been in a random motel but i think i should get further away)
* epinephrineElectrified PMs bobbedNonsense (there are a lot of military people here and i don't want what happened yesterday to happen again)
<epinephrineElectrified> [actually you're just going to]
* epinephrineElectrified PMs "Spen" (hi i'm not dead)
* bobbedNonsense PMs epinephrineElectrified : ( telling people 'no i don't want to talk about it' and sticking to that is perfectly valid, but if you want to skip another town over- well, try and keep an ear out for if there're gonna be any more tornado warnings, before you set off? )
* epinephrineElectrified PMs bobbedNonsense (of course)
* epinephrineElectrified PMs bobbedNonsense (not sure i'd ever be able to get away from the wizard of oz jokes if i had to enter from inside one)
* bobbedNonsense PMs epinephrineElectrified : ( i admittedly would not be able to resist at least one reference )
* epinephrineElectrified PMs bobbedNonsense (fff)
* bobbedNonsense PMs epinephrineElectrified : ( i'm still a lazy lit nerd at heart )
* bobbedNonsense PMs epinephrineElectrified : ( how're you feeling? )
* epinephrineElectrified PMs bobbedNonsense (shit)
* bobbedNonsense PMs epinephrineElectrified : ( /me hugs )
* epinephrineElectrified PMs bobbedNonsense (/me hugs)
* bobbedNonsense PMs epinephrineElectrified : ( i trust you can deal with the mechanics, yeah? remember to eat, sleep, etc? timewolf'll probably smack down on you if you don't, i figure )
* epinephrineElectrified PMs bobbedNonsense (yeah)
* epinephrineElectrified PMs bobbedNonsense ('m letting the mods take up the slack on cf, all they know is that i'm still broken up about mindblogger though)
* bobbedNonsense PMs epinephrineElectrified : ( fair enough )
* bobbedNonsense PMs epinephrineElectrified : ( ...would some good news be welcome? )
* epinephrineElectrified PMs bobbedNonsense (sure)
* bobbedNonsense PMs epinephrineElectrified : ( i got a moirail )
<epinephrineElectrified> [You suddenly feel very alone.]
* epinephrineElectrified PMs bobbedNonsense (congratulations, i think?)
* epinephrineElectrified PMs bobbedNonsense (something like that)
* bobbedNonsense PMs epinephrineElectrified : ( thanks )
* epinephrineElectrified PMs bobbedNonsense (i think i'm going to)
* epinephrineElectrified PMs bobbedNonsense (go now)
* bobbedNonsense PMs epinephrineElectrified : ( alright. take care )
* bobbedNonsense PMs epinephrineElectrified : ( drop me a line if there's anything you need, yeah? )
* epinephrineElectrified PMs bobbedNonsense (ok)
* epinephrineElectrified PMs bobbedNonsense (thank you)
