[03:11] AA: Are you STILL not up yet?

[03:12] GA: uh, hi

[03:12] GA: thanks for not waking me up to go see my kids?

[03:12] AA: Hi.

[03:12] AA: I couldn't find you!

[03:12] AA: I assumed you fell asleep somewhere.

[03:12] AA: Nate's room for example.

[03:13] GA: yeah, i was

[03:13] GA: why didnt you just check there?

[03:13] GA: gosh, sami. for shame.

[03:13] AA: Nate would've probably shot me if I came near his room.

[03:13] AA: I texted you!

[03:14] GA: my phone was in my other pants, not my sleeping pants

[03:14] GA: anyway it sounded like youve hit a rest point from what ive heard

[03:15] GA: ryspor says hi, and to say hi to thiago

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;">[03:15] GA: and make sure hes safe

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;">[03:15] AA: Kind of. We're regrouping and figuring out what our next action should be.

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;">[03:15] AA: Oh, okay, I'll tell him.

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;">[03:15] AA: And yeah, of course. Gotta look out for all the kiddies.

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;">[03:15] GA: lmao i heard you adopted lily

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;">[03:15] GA: welcome to the mavico clan

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;">[03:16] AA: Right....Mavico.

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;">[03:16] GA: our numbers grow

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;">[03:16] GA: i adopted some kid on another team too lmao

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;">[03:17] AA: What? Why?

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;">[03:17] GA: both his parents were dead and he really likes post-scratch me

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;">[03:17] GA: the vejant/null kid

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;">[03:17] GA: hes kind of a doof. it seemed like a good idea.

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;">[03:17] AA: You mean one of his parents is dead and the other is MIA.

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;">[03:18] AA: Sigh. Who am I kidding?

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;">[03:18] GA: yeah, but i think the post-scratch vejant is probably dead too

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;">[03:18] GA: cause didnt postnull live with rilset?

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;">[03:18] AA: Oh, wait, did something happen to post-scratch Null?

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;">[03:18] GA: thats what erisio said.

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;">[03:18] GA: i dunno, he hadnt seen her

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;">[03:19] AA: Oh. That's sort of normal, though, right? Nate and I are pretty much the only ones who saw our parents after we entered...

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;">[03:19] GA: yeah

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;">[03:19] GA: postme died, apparently, valiantly to save lily or something

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;">[03:19] GA: which is pretty cool i guess

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;">[03:20] AA: That's sad. But yeah, I guess it's something to be proud of, too.

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;">[03:20] AA: I think Lily only likes me as much as she does because this universe's version of me is supposed to be way cooler than I am.

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;">[03:21] GA: yeah, i think she said postyou was like basically her mom anyway

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;">[03:21] GA: which is sweet cause that means postusses were totes besties too

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;">[03:24] AA: Postme sounds pretty cool.

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;">[03:25] GA: yooo were you like, the colonel, then? super military badass?

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;">[03:26] AA: Yeah. I think this universe's version of the Colonel must've been really proud of her.

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;">[03:28] GA: whatre your kids like? are they super cool?

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;">[03:29] AA: I haven't met Jackjack yet. Darmok....poor little guy takes after me in more ways than he deserves to.

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;">[03:30] GA: d'aww, is he really really short

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;">[03:30] AA: No, he's gigantic.

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;">[03:30] AA: I'm kinda glad I didn't have to give birth to him. Those horns alone...

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;">[03:30] GA: hahahah, must be the one you had with balish then

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;">[03:30] AA: Yeah.

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;">[03:31] AA: Not like Beau's small either though.

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;">[03:31] GA: true

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;">[03:31] AA: This world's Balish didn't treat Darmok well.

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;">[03:31] GA: aw, that sucks

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;">[03:31] AA: He'd better hope I don't run into him.

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;">[03:32] GA: heheh, well, if we're beating up clowns who are mean to their kids, im in

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;">[03:33] GA: speaking of clowns, hows beaus kid with tlaloc?

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;">[03:33] GA: you adopted them too?

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;">[03:35] AA: I mean not officially or anything. I think most of these kids are actually older than I am.

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;">[03:35] AA: But I'm keeping an eye out for her.

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;">[03:35] AA: She's super cool, and almost as pretty as her mom.

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;">[03:36] AA: She makes robots!

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;">[03:36] GA: cool! she must be super smart, like beau.

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;">[03:36] AA: Yeah. She doesn't seem much like Tlaloc at all.

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;">[03:36] GA: even better!

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;">[03:36] AA: Other than the horns and all.

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;">[03:37] AA: And Darmok's dating her sister, who isn't very Tlaloc-y either. She's so timid, I'm scared to come on too strong around her.

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;">[03:38] GA: wow! both tlaloc kids ended up good?

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;">[03:38] GA: thats like, gotta be a good omen.

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;">[03:40] AA: God knows we need them.

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;">[03:41] GA: yeah

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;">[03:42] GA: this time, though, we've got veterans, experience, 150% the people, and no super powerful doublegod sociopath in our way.

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;">[03:42] GA: we should have this in the bag.

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;">[03:43] AA: Sigh.

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;">[03:44] GA: ...did i say something bad?

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;">[03:45] AA: No, it's just....Darmok thinks he's doomed. Because of my decisions before I got here.

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;">[03:46] AA: And I'm worried about him.

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;">[03:46] GA: well, thats... not good, is there any chance of saving him?

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;">[03:47] AA: I don't know. I'm going to try.

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;">[03:48] GA: if i can help in any way, just ask.

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;">[03:48] GA: or something.

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;">[03:48] AA: If I think of anything, I will.

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;">[03:50] GA: i should be showing up soon, i think

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;">[03:50] GA: reinforcements are incoming

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;">[03:52] GA: what do my kids look like? dont wanna hug the wrong people.

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;">[03:55] AA: Well....Erisio has sort of wild hair and downward facing horns.

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;">[03:56] GA: heheheh, okay

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;">[03:56] AA: And Lily's, uh....bald and has no eyes.

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;">[03:56] GA: yeah i heard

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;">[03:59] GA: competition to adopt as many children as possible?

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;">[04:02] AA: I don't know. It feels kind of weird now that I've actually met them. They're already so grown up....and a bunch of them still have OTHER parents.

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;">[04:02] GA: yeah but a lotta them are orphans now

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;">[04:03] GA: i mean im pretty sure you were already planning on momming the crap out of everyone anyway, so i might as well help

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;">[04:05] GA: i betcha fifty boonies ill adopt more

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;">[04:08] AA: It's not really a competition Doir. We can still be good team leaders for them without being their mom or dad.

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;">[04:08] AA: I made breakfast for everyone just the other day! And I barely even burnt it!

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;">[04:08] GA: sounds like someone doesnt think they can win fifty boonies

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;">[04:09] GA: good job tho

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;">[04:09] AA: Anyway, fifty boonies is nothing. I've got like a zillion boonies.

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;">[04:10] AA: Not enough to buy any Fraymotifs or anything, but 50 boonies isn't going to make the difference. =P

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;">[04:10] GA: yeah, me too. its just that traditionally in bets people only bet like fifty bucks.

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;">[04:10] GA: im surprised you can even work a stove after five years of free, effortless food, though

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;">[04:11] GA: its gonna suck not having that anymore, ugh

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;">[04:14] AA: Well, the Colonel had that whole Martha Stewart thing going. He was always on my back to learn how to cook. I never learned to be good at it, but I learned how to keep myself alive.

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;">[04:14] GA: eheheh

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;">[04:15] GA: my mom was really into cooking, but the most i got outta that was a pan to the face when i acted particularly like a demon

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;">[04:15] GA: great dinner tho

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;">[04:16] AA: Well anyway, you should hurry up and get down here before we set out.

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;">[04:16] GA: yeah, im lookin for libby

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;">[04:17] GA: got everything packed anyway

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;">[04:17] GA: its weird to be chatting over text again

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;">[04:17] GA: also weird that none of our texting styles changed at all despite multiple years of growth and change

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;">[04:19] AA: I don't know what you're flippin' talking about.

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;">[04:19] GA: me neither

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;">[04:21] GA: im gonna go captchalogue my whole bed or something

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;">[04:21] GA: see ya in a bit, sami

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;">[04:21] AA: See you in a bit.
