 -- aspiringArchon [AA] began trolling gracefulThaumaturge [GT] at 03:29 --

 [03:29] AA: (( Would you rather do this in person, or over text? ))

 [03:29] GT: (( don't know. ))

 [03:30] AA: (( In that case, text is probably easier. Just so I don't have to think up actions. =P ))

 [03:31] AA: Hey Pumpkin. How's it going?

 [03:31] GT: It's going well! Ѽ ⋆:・ﾟ✧

 [03:31] GT: How are you? Ѽ ⋆:・ﾟ✧

 [03:31] AA: I'm okay. I actually just got done talking with Rubi about team assignments.

 [03:32] GT: Oh! Ѽ ⋆:・ﾟ✧

 [03:32] AA: So um....I sort of assigned us to different teams.

 [03:33] GT: Oh? I thought you would want to be with me? Ѽ ⋆:・ﾟ✧

 [03:33] AA: I do!

 [03:33] AA: But I think we've seen I'm way too reckless when I'm trying to keep you safe.

 [03:33] GT: Oh... Ѽ ⋆:・ﾟ✧

 [03:33] GT: How many teams are there? Ѽ ⋆:・ﾟ✧

 [03:33] AA: Three.

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [03:33] AA: You're there with Rubi and Miloko and Darmok though.

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [03:33] AA: Erisio and Thiago, too.

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [03:34] AA: Also Lily.

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [03:34] AA: Sorry about that last one.

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [03:34] AA: She had to go somewhere.

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [03:34] GT: Ehhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh. Fine. Ѽ ⋆:・ﾟ✧

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [03:35] AA: But this doesn't have to be a permanent assignment. And since it's just a matter of going through the base, we should be able to meet up again any time we want.

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [03:35] GT: Okay. I'll miss you though! Ѽ ⋆:・ﾟ✧

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [03:36] AA: Yeah. I'll miss you too.

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [03:36] GT: You at least have to come with me to my world, okay? Ѽ ⋆:・ﾟ✧

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [03:36] AA: Okay. Sure. We'll make time for it.

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [03:36] AA: Technically I've already been there, though. <3

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [03:36] AA: But I admit I didn't pay much attention to what was going on outside at the time.

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [03:37] GT: Hihihihi~ Ѽ ⋆:・ﾟ✧

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [03:37] GT: We should do your block next time! Ѽ ⋆:・ﾟ✧

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [03:38] AA: I'd like that. We should spend all the time we can together before the teams set out. In case it takes a while before we can meet back up, when we're out exploring.

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [03:41] GT: I would like that! I get new stims soon too... Ѽ ⋆:・ﾟ✧

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [03:42] GT: So I still think we'll be here a while. Are we waiting for Libby and Scarlet to get here? Ѽ ⋆:・ﾟ✧

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [03:42] GT: Or what is happening? Ѽ ⋆:・ﾟ✧

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [03:48] AA: I think we might go out and explore on our own.

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [03:48] GT: Ah. Ѽ ⋆:・ﾟ✧

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [03:48] AA: I'm not sure if we should depend on Libby being our ally.

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [03:48] AA: And I'm not sure whether Scarlet's hands will be tied.

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [03:48] GT: I understand... Ѽ ⋆:・ﾟ✧

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [03:48] GT: I think it will be okay though! Ѽ ⋆:・ﾟ✧

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [03:48] AA: I hope you're right.

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [03:53] GT: I think it will. Ѽ ⋆:・ﾟ✧

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [03:53] AA: So you said you're getting new stims? Is it just a refill, or are they a new type of stim altogether?

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [03:54] GT: One in addition! I said something about it being annoying that Lily gets to read that braille stuff. Ѽ ⋆:・ﾟ✧

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [03:54] AA: Oh, I see.

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [03:54] GT: And all the books Ѽ ⋆:・ﾟ✧

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [03:54] GT: Libby gave me are like that too. Ѽ ⋆:・ﾟ✧

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [03:55] AA: Libby is giving you these?

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [03:55] GT: Oh! Ѽ ⋆:・ﾟ✧

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [03:55] GT: No Ѽ ⋆:・ﾟ✧

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [03:55] GT: Scarlet is giving me these stims. Ѽ ⋆:・ﾟ✧

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [03:55] AA: Good. Even if you think it'll be fine with Libby, I would be nervous about accepting gifts from her still.

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [03:55] AA: Especially ones you'll be injecting into yourself.

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [03:56] GT: Yeah, from this point on, I'm actually going to try to figure out how to do my own. Ѽ ⋆:・ﾟ✧

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [03:56] AA: That'll be good.

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [03:57] AA: Oh, when you come by later you can check out my garden. Nothing's broken the surface yet or anything, but it's....it's definitely some dirt in about the right shape.

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [03:58] GT: Are you watering it? Ѽ ⋆:・ﾟ✧

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [03:59] GT: Did you ask Erisio for more seeds? Ѽ ⋆:・ﾟ✧

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [03:59] AA: I haven't asked him yet, no

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [03:59] GT: When we meet Scarlet's Rilset, he maybe has some too. If he's anything like MY pap. Ѽ ⋆:・ﾟ✧

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [03:59] GT: papa* Ѽ ⋆:・ﾟ✧

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [03:59] AA: I'll have to ask him. Assuming he supports me as your suitor.

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [04:00] AA: I'm still not even certain your papa supports me pursuing you as much as he sort of tolerates it.

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [04:00] AA: And even then only under the understanding that he gets to punch me.

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [04:00] GT: But he seemed pretty happy about it after he tricked us. Ѽ ⋆:・ﾟ✧

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [04:00] AA: I think he may have just enjoyed seeing us both so embarrassed. But maybe you're right.

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [04:01] AA: I'd like to believe he supports us.

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [04:01] GT: I think he was telling me to build a harem though... That doesn't feel right, so I'm just going to nod and not do anything about it. Ѽ ⋆:・ﾟ✧

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [04:02] AA: Yes, I would appreciate that.

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [04:02] AA: A kismesis is one thing, but I'm not interested in sharing you with other matesprits.

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [04:03] GT: About that... Ѽ ⋆:・ﾟ✧

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [04:03] AA: Yes?

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [04:04] GT: I was talking with P... papa and I think... I need to keep seeing Balish. Ѽ ⋆:・ﾟ✧

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [04:04] AA: (( Merrow doesn't respond for a second as he hoots and hollers with joy. ))

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [04:04] AA: ...if you think that's for the best.

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [04:04] GT: (( did you read it wrong? ))

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [04:05] AA: (( Oh. Yes. I did. ))

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [04:05] AA: (( Sorry. ))

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [04:05] GT: (( :P ))

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [04:05] AA: Why does he think that though? He knows what Libby has threatened you with, doesn't he?

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [04:05] AA: Does he not think she'll follow through?

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [04:05] GT: Libby told me that she would punish my parents if it continued. But they seem supportive. Ѽ ⋆:・ﾟ✧

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [04:06] GT: And at least I feel... I should best him at his own game so he can feel useless. Ѽ ⋆:・ﾟ✧

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [04:06] AA: Well then it's your choice to make. I'll stand behind you.

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [04:06] AA: Just....don't let him kill you, okay?

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [04:06] AA: I don't trust that motherglubber's ability to show restraint.

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [04:06] GT: Then I won't either. Ѽ ⋆:・ﾟ✧

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [04:07] AA: (( In that case, Merrow's pause for effect was actually him punching the wall a couple of times, by the way. ))

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [04:07] GT: I think it will work out. He might have military tactics, but I have been living in the trees and papa trained Erisio and I to defend ourselves. I can do this. Ѽ ⋆:・ﾟ✧

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [04:07] GT: I know I can. Ѽ ⋆:・ﾟ✧

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [04:08] GT: Besides~ His horns are too much like yours for me not to like. Ѽ ⋆:・ﾟ✧

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [04:08] GT: (( she is trying. oh my god did she try ))

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [04:08] AA: Ughh.

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [04:08] AA: Don't remind me.

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [04:09] AA: I suppose it would be in bad taste for me to attempt to kill him if I see him again, then?

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [04:09] GT: As long as it doesn't have anything to do with me! Ѽ ⋆:・ﾟ✧

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [04:09] GT: I mean, I would be upset since he kinda... Ѽ ⋆:・ﾟ✧

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [04:09] GT: you know. Baited all the humans. Ѽ ⋆:・ﾟ✧

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [04:09] GT: If i were you. Ѽ ⋆:・ﾟ✧

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [04:10] AA: It has much to do with you. But no, you are not the sole motivation here.

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [04:10] AA: Still....he is yours to defeat. I shouldn't take that from you.

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [04:11] AA: I'll do what I can to avoid defeating him before you can. But if I have no other option for keeping my team safe, I'll do what I must. That's the best I can promise.

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [04:11] GT: I understand. Ѽ ⋆:・ﾟ✧

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [04:11] GT: Thank you Merrow~ Ѽ ⋆:・ﾟ✧

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [04:11] GT: You're the best! Ѽ ⋆:・ﾟ✧

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [04:11] AA: Present company excluded. <3

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [04:12] GT: oh shoosh you~ <3 Ѽ ⋆:・ﾟ✧

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [04:13] AA: Okay. I think I'm going to try to track Erisio down to see if he has any seeds you didn't. You want to come over to my room for dinner?

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [04:13] AA: And maybe stay for breakfast~?

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [04:14] GT: Of course! Ѽ ⋆:・ﾟ✧

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [04:15] AA: All right. I'll see you then.

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [04:16] GT: See you soon~ Ѽ ⋆:・ﾟ✧
