- [01:15] * gloriousGunsmoke began pestering haughtyArtemis
- [01:15] <gloriousGunsmoke> Hey Rosalind
- [01:15] <gloriousGunsmoke> How is everything.
- [01:15] <gloriousGunsmoke> Did you make it in? Are you safe?
- [01:16] <haughtyArtemis> Pretty great, actually. Crazy Joe gave me some proper bullets, and all the enemies in this game are crumpling like tinfoil.
- [01:16] <gloriousGunsmoke> Heh... so you're actually having a good time?
- [01:16] <haughtyArtemis> It's fantastic. Joe has a FLAMETHROWER!
- [01:17] * gloriousGunsmoke cant help but smile
- [01:17] <haughtyArtemis> And of course I made it in. Flynn, I'm the one who let YOU in.
- [01:17] <gloriousGunsmoke> That sounds exciting.
- [01:17] <gloriousGunsmoke> Oh... yeah... I guess I didn't think about that.
- [01:17] <gloriousGunsmoke> Was too focused on.. you know. Getting in and all.
- [01:18] <gloriousGunsmoke> Thanks for that by the way.
- [01:18] <haughtyArtemis> That's allowed. There's nothing wrong with forgetting some details when survival is on the line.
- [01:18] == ceiling_Lavira [[email protected]] has quit [Client Quit]
- [01:18] <haughtyArtemis> Of course.
- [01:18] <gloriousGunsmoke> You did a good job. Better than I did for the next person.
- [01:18] <gloriousGunsmoke> They still got it- I just might have wrecked their house a bit.
- [01:19] <haughtyArtemis> Hah. Oh well, I'm sure they'll manage.
- [01:19] <haughtyArtemis> That was the troll, right?
- [01:19] <gloriousGunsmoke> Yeah.
- [01:20] <gloriousGunsmoke> Had a costume on or something, weird looking room. She didn't have any time though so I didn't get a good look at anything.
- [01:20] <gloriousGunsmoke> It's mostly a blur now.
- [01:20] <haughtyArtemis> Makes sense. I guess the timers must have just been shorter and shorter for everyone.
- [01:21] <haughtyArtemis> You didn't panic too much, did you?
- [01:21] <gloriousGunsmoke> Well like I said- I did wreck her house a bit. Alchemiter? Went right through the floor into a cavern kind of area.
- [01:21] <gloriousGunsmoke> Was a close call.
- [01:22] <haughtyArtemis> ... Huh.
- [01:22] <haughtyArtemis> I guess thin floors might be a problem with something that heavy, yeah.
- [01:22] <gloriousGunsmoke> Didn't have time to ask, heh.
- [01:23] <gloriousGunsmoke> Rosalind... I'm not feeling so hot to be quite honest... I'm hurt pretty bad.
- [01:23] <haughtyArtemis> No dying.
- [01:23] <haughtyArtemis> Not allowed.
- [01:23] <haughtyArtemis> Let me make that perfectly clear, right now.
- [01:24] <gloriousGunsmoke> I almost did.
- [01:24] <gloriousGunsmoke> It was bad.
- [01:25] <gloriousGunsmoke> I've been in fights before ya know... came with the area I lived in. This fight though?... I could feel it slipping away.
- [01:25] <haughtyArtemis> I can think of one very simple solution to your problem.
- [01:25] <gloriousGunsmoke> If the crumbling building didn't take care of it for me? I don't think we'd be having this conversation.
- [01:25] <haughtyArtemis> Don't almost die again.
- [01:25] <gloriousGunsmoke> What's that?
- [01:25] <haughtyArtemis> Got it?
- [01:26] <gloriousGunsmoke> I'll most certainly try my best.
- [01:26] <haughtyArtemis> Good.
- [01:26] * gloriousGunsmoke coughs up a little blood. JUST a little though.
- [01:26] <haughtyArtemis> If it has to be luck, then let it be luck. If you can make it be skill or cleverness, then have it be that.
- [01:26] <haughtyArtemis> But you don't die.
- [01:27] <gloriousGunsmoke> Yeah... I don't know what we're supposed to be doing in the grand scheme of this world- but I wish I could bring more to the table right now than
- [01:27] <gloriousGunsmoke> not dying.
- [01:27] <gloriousGunsmoke> Heh
- [01:28] <gloriousGunsmoke> I'm gonna take a wild guess and assume we're in two completely different areas, by the way.
- [01:28] <haughtyArtemis> Almost definitely.
- [01:28] <gloriousGunsmoke> Where are you at? What's it like?
- [01:28] <haughtyArtemis> Unless you're surrounded by electrified floating rocks that are hiding just offscreen.
- [01:29] <haughtyArtemis> There are a lot of electrified floating rocks, for one thing.
- [01:29] * gloriousGunsmoke takes a look around.
- [01:29] <gloriousGunsmoke> Nope, can't say that I do.
- [01:29] <gloriousGunsmoke> That's a bit discouraging.
- [01:29] <gloriousGunsmoke> You see any friendly ghosts or giant glowing towers?
- [01:30] <gloriousGunsmoke> Rectangles jutting through the ground?
- [01:30] <haughtyArtemis> Tower, yes. A castle, at least.
- [01:30] <haughtyArtemis> No rectangles to speak of.
- [01:30] * gloriousGunsmoke takes a look back.
- [01:30] <gloriousGunsmoke> Nah I don't think mine's a castle.
- [01:31] <gloriousGunsmoke> Well... that's weird.
- [01:31] <haughtyArtemis> I'm going to see if I can recognize anything on the viewport. Okay?
- [01:31] <gloriousGunsmoke> Sure thing
- [01:31] * haughtyArtemis opens up the SCratch viewport and takes a more direct look at Flynn's surroundings.
- [01:31] <haughtyArtemis> Yep. Definitely not the same.
- [01:32] <gloriousGunsmoke> How do I look? Does it look bad?
- [01:32] <gloriousGunsmoke> Thought as much.
- [01:32] <haughtyArtemis> It's... not very good.
- [01:32] <gloriousGunsmoke> I hope we can all find each other.
- [01:33] <haughtyArtemis> That would be good. Yeah.
- [01:33] <gloriousGunsmoke> Yeah... it feels even worse! heh
- [01:33] <haughtyArtemis> Let me reiterate one more time for the record. No dying.
- [01:34] <haughtyArtemis> And no getting hurt this badly again, either.
- [01:34] <gloriousGunsmoke> Well... looks like I don't have a choice in the matter.
- [01:35] <haughtyArtemis> You most certainly do not.
- [01:35] <gloriousGunsmoke> Have you heard from the others yet?
- [01:35] <gloriousGunsmoke> You're the first person I've talked to ever since the uhm
- [01:35] <gloriousGunsmoke> event.
- [01:35] <haughtyArtemis> Anna's in-game and alive.
- [01:35] <haughtyArtemis> She's the only one I know of besides you.
- [01:35] * gloriousGunsmoke breathes a sigh of relief.
- [01:35] <gloriousGunsmoke> Well that's good.
- [01:35] <gloriousGunsmoke> No word from Hanna yet?
- [01:36] <haughtyArtemis> Hanna doesn't know me.
- [01:36] <haughtyArtemis> I'm not the person she'd be giving word to.
- [01:37] <gloriousGunsmoke> Oh yeah that's right! I was supposed to introduce you two! We were planning on playing a roleplaying game together when everyone was over at my house and we were going to convince you to play by being some awesome archer or something and
- [01:37] <gloriousGunsmoke> and
- [01:38] <gloriousGunsmoke> and
- [01:38] <haughtyArtemis> ... And that might be a bit more difficult now.
- [01:39] * gloriousGunsmoke holds back tears. Tries to forget that Earth and everything else he's known may be long-gone.
- [01:39] <gloriousGunsmoke> Yeah.
- [01:39] <haughtyArtemis> Hey, Flynn?
- [01:39] <gloriousGunsmoke> Yeah Rosalind?
- [01:40] <haughtyArtemis> Before this whole mess with the game started, I sent you a message.
- [01:40] <haughtyArtemis> I had been asking about taking you and Anna to a restaurant or somewhere to celebrate that match I won.
- [01:41] <gloriousGunsmoke> I'm sorry I don't think I ever got it. Might have been bad timing, or my sleep issues.
- [01:41] <haughtyArtemis> Maybe.
- [01:41] <gloriousGunsmoke> That sounds pretty good right about now.
- [01:41] <gloriousGunsmoke> I'm sorry it didn't happen.
- [01:41] <haughtyArtemis> I still fully intend to do that somehow.
- [01:41] <haughtyArtemis> Even if that restaurant has to be my kitchen.
- [01:41] <haughtyArtemis> Do you get what I mean?
- [01:42] <gloriousGunsmoke> Yeah. I do Rosalind, I do.
- [01:42] <haughtyArtemis> We're tough. We can make this whole thing work.
- [01:42] <gloriousGunsmoke> We should make it a promise.
- [01:43] <haughtyArtemis> ... A promise.
- [01:43] <gloriousGunsmoke> Yeah!
- [01:43] <gloriousGunsmoke> Hey- I'm not allowed to die right?
- [01:43] <gloriousGunsmoke> That's already one.
- [01:43] <haughtyArtemis> That's not a promise, that's just a fact.
- [01:44] <gloriousGunsmoke> Haha, true.
- [01:44] <haughtyArtemis> Promises are- I don't know. Kids make promises.
- [01:45] <gloriousGunsmoke> Well.. we still kind of are? Are we not?
- [01:45] <haughtyArtemis> LITTLE kids make promises.
- [01:45] <gloriousGunsmoke> Heheh
- [01:45] <gloriousGunsmoke> Think of it as a goal! A target to shoot for.
- [01:46] <haughtyArtemis> But you're the one who has to do it.
- [01:46] <haughtyArtemis> Alright, look. If I say promise, will you try that much harder to stay alive?
- [01:47] <gloriousGunsmoke> You bet!
- [01:47] <haughtyArtemis> Fine. Then I promise that when you survive, and when everyone meets up, I'm throwing the closest approximation of a dinner party that I can pull off.
- [01:49] * gloriousGunsmoke is cheered up by the thought of this. Both the idea of all of his best friends sitting safely together in one place... and the idea of Rosalind throwing a dinner party.
- [01:49] <gloriousGunsmoke> I promise too!
- [01:50] <haughtyArtemis> After that, when everyone's all grouped up, then we can see about that game you mentioned.
- [01:50] <haughtyArtemis> Awesome archers can be cool.
- [01:50] <haughtyArtemis> Maybe.
- [01:51] <gloriousGunsmoke> Awesome! I know you might like it if you give it a chance, even if it's not your thing.
- [01:51] <haughtyArtemis> Let it never be said that I refuse to give things a chance.
- [01:52] <gloriousGunsmoke> haha!
- [01:52] <gloriousGunsmoke> I'm getting close to my destination now so I think I'm going to get off.
- [01:52] <gloriousGunsmoke> Rosalind?
- [01:52] <haughtyArtemis> Yes?
- [01:53] <gloriousGunsmoke> It was... really nice being able to talk to someone. Thanks.
- [01:53] <haughtyArtemis> Don't thank me. Anyone else would have done the same.
- [01:53] <haughtyArtemis> Just go do your thing. Find a first aid kit or something if you can.
- [01:53] <haughtyArtemis> And don't die.
- [01:54] <gloriousGunsmoke> Will do. I'd tell you to stay safe as well but. .you seem to have that handled haha
- [01:54] <haughtyArtemis> I'll stay extra safe, then.
- [01:54] <haughtyArtemis> That only seems fair.
- [01:55] <gloriousGunsmoke> Good to know. Talk to you later Rosalind.
- [01:55] <haughtyArtemis> Talk to you later, Flynn.
- [01:55] * gloriousGunsmoke has ceased pestering haughtyArtemis.
