 [06:51] CG: Hello?

 [06:51] AT: ∴ Oh, Eddy, Hello ∴

 [06:51] CG: Came to check on the music so far.

 [06:51] AT: ∴ Ugh, It's, well it's difficult; ∴

 [06:52] CG: Difficult? You talk like you're big on synthesizing though.

 [06:52] AT: ∴ I have so many ideas and so many thoughts, but putting them to music or make them songs. ∴

 [06:52] CG: If there's anything I can do lemme know. I was just pondering about a memo we can have for our band.

 [06:53] AT: ∴ Our band? It is just the two of us at this point. ∴

 [06:53] CG: True. I was just thinking we can bring Eric in and see if he can learn the drums.

 [06:54] AT: ∴ Eric? I figured he was just a writer, did he mention interest in percussion? ∴

 [06:55] CG: No but he said he throws chandelers around.

 [06:55] CG: That might be something to work with right?

 [06:55] AT: ∴ I didn't know he did that... I like swinging Chandelers, but does Eric? ∴

 [06:56] CG: ...

 [06:56] CG: Whoops, mixed you two up > >

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [06:56] CG: I don't think he knows anything about precussions but taking up drums isn't hard if you can practice how to keep in time with the rhythm.

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [06:56] CG: we're scraping for talent here.

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [06:57] AT: ∴ I don't quite understand your urgency for forming a band, it is refreshing I suppose, admerable even. ∴

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [06:58] AT: ∴ Though the sound of chandeliers crashing does seem like it would make a good sound for a Postrock song. ∴

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [06:58] CG: Well it's the first time I actually got contacts online who could manage rock n roll...

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [06:58] CG: not to mention people I can have coherent conversation with.

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [06:59] AT: ∴ I can understand that. It feels much better talking with the intelligent over the petty; ∴

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [07:00] CG: Yeah. But let's move on. You wanna tell me some song titles you got rolling in your head?

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [07:01] AT: ∴ I have a few titles, also a sound file, tell me what you think ∴

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [07:01] CG: ...

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [07:01] AT: ∴ I put a little reverb on it, that's the echo sound. ∴

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [07:02] CG: If it didn't have the chandelier title to it I would've almost guessed it was one of your galaxy sound effects...

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [07:02] CG: You get what i mean right?

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [07:02] AT: ∴ I feel I do! Let me do another! ∴

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [07:03] CG: I prefer the chandelier...

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [07:03] CG: it has a better grounding to work with.

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [07:04] AT: ∴ Indeed, I have to agree, though that thud could be deepened and looped for a percussion beat ∴

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [07:04] CG: almost got it, just amplify the echoing and maybe alter the frequency a smidge.

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [07:05] AT: ∴ Hmmm... I will attempt something else, one second. ∴

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [07:05] AT: ∴ Oh. Oh shit... ∴

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [07:05] AT: ∴ Well, It made a good sound: ∴

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [07:05] CG: ...You ran out of chandeliers?

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [07:06] CG: ...

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [07:06] CG: I suddenly feel very sorry for you

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [07:06] AT: ∴ I feel I have some clean up to do; ∴

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [07:06] CG: Riiight...

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [07:06] AT: ∴ And no need to feel bad, nothing is perminant. ∴

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [07:06] CG: Just in a lot of small fixable pieces...

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [07:07] AT: ∴ and now I have more chandeliers/ceiling fans to practice swinging weapons with; ∴

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [07:07] AT: ∴ overall, nothing much lost, and few things gained. ∴

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [07:07] AT: ∴ Such is the universe. ∴

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [07:07] CG: Er yeah.

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [07:08] CG: You met anyone new lately?

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [07:09] AT: ∴ No. I've been a tad gunshy since I was made a fool of by those blue-blooded angel worshipers. ∴

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [07:10] CG: Really?

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [07:10] CG: they're trolls, it's their thing.

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [07:10] AT: ∴ Indeed: they're both fools of the highest degree, I'm afraid. ∴

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [07:10] CG: Not really. One of them is acting like a big friend to the other who's having a meltdown over her trolling being immature.

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [07:11] CG: gallionicAcrobat and acrobaticAmbulist know each other.

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [07:11] AT: ∴ Of course they do, they are quite in cahoots. ∴

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [07:12] CG: GA said you'd be lying if you said you got trolled but I keep an open mind on the troll thing.

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [07:12] CG: I figure being straight forward with you wouldn't help me any in our band relationship.

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [07:12] CG: ugh.

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [07:12] CG: ...I mean

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [07:12] CG: I prefer being straight forward to better our bandwork.

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [07:12] CG: Sorry, my head's a lil unfocused tonight.

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [07:13] AT: ∴ Well, any one who makes a fool of me and insults my intelligence is certainly trolling me. ∴

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [07:13] CG: But that's how they get you. find what your pride is and poke at it.

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [07:13] CG: They try to do that with each other as well.

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [07:13] CG: Sort of like 'who the better troll is'

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [07:14] AT: ∴ The foolish games the elitist opressors play; ∴

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [07:14] CG: Lucky we're not on that side.

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [07:14] CG: and unlucky for me, I have to play that game with a purple blood.

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [07:15] AT: ∴ Purple blood? ∴

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [07:15] CG: Well purple text.

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [07:15] AT: ∴ Surely, not that mad CC fellow? ∴

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [07:16] CG: tried, didn't get anything other than 'eddy on the meteor' and 'libby on the astrolabe' and 'terezi finally gets her boonmints'

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [07:16] CG: No idea what that means but I thought i'd try. me and Eric were having a hoot trying to decypher it.

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [07:16] CG: But no luck. However he came up with something fun.

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [07:17] CG: an astrolabe being a star compass was what i told him, and he said 'perhaps this libby is sailing the stars'.

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [07:17] CG: Makes it sound poetic and fableish.

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [07:17] AT: ∴ Let me look at these logs; ∴

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [07:18] CG: between me and eric and then me and that weirdo chum handle?

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [07:18] AT: ∴ I mainly refer to any chats you had with the mad troll. ∴

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [07:19] CG: (( http://world-of-homestuck.wikia.com/wiki/071614EddyDarmok ))

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [07:20] AT: ∴ Now, in this log, are you repeating things he had said to you before? ∴

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [07:20] CG: Mostly what was told to Eric

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [07:20] CG: Other than that I had NO idea what the guy was saying.

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [07:21] AT: ∴ Curious. ∴

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [07:21] CG: Eh...yeah...curious

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [07:22] CG: Just wondering ... you ever met anyone online you instantly 'clicked' with

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [07:22] CG: ?

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [07:23] AT: ∴ perhaps, these phrases have different meanings despite the words they are formed with. ∴

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [07:23] CG: Well I met this...Girl...

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [07:24] AT: ∴ to your second point: I have felt connection with many friends online, but you refer to a potentially intimate connection, ∴

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [07:24] AT: ∴ do you not? ∴

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [07:25] CG: ME?!

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [07:25] CG: NO no no no no no no .. no ..

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [07:25] CG: ... do I?

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [07:26] AT: ∴ If you take the meaning of "intimate" to mean anything other than an emotional association with positive feelings, I do not. ∴

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [07:26] AT: ∴ Forgive me, I assure it is quite impossible to have deeply perfound relationship with someone you have not seen. ∴

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [07:27] CG: I mean I just had a game of real time strategy with her recently.

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [07:27] CG: Command and conquer.

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [07:27] CG: ... she's like an artist with those units of hers...

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [07:27] AT: ∴ ah, you've met her on the field of battle and were beguiled by her command, eh? ∴

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [07:28] CG: don't put it that way seriously.

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [07:28] CG: Sure it was inspiring and all but...

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [07:28] CG: > < I JUST MET HER ONCE.

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [07:28] CG: we had a good long chat before gaming.

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [07:28] CG: we have similar tastes in video games.

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [07:28] CG: I mean she has a broader world of video gaming experience and all but...

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [07:29] CG: ...

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [07:29] CG: ...I think i better get a grip before I take this way past the realms of common sense.

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [07:30] AT: ∴ My honest advice: I feel you should figure out exactly what you want from this connection, if what you are recieving is less than fulfilling. ∴

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [07:30] AT: ∴ If that made any sense at all; ∴

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [07:30] CG: I only met her once...

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [07:30] AT: ∴ It is possible I'm slightly distracted by the glass all over my room ∴

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [07:31] AT: ∴ Then meet her again, if you require more exposure to understand your feelings. ∴

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [07:31] CG: Right.

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [07:31] CG: I'm being silly and probably crazy from being left all alone with just me and my mother in the mountains without any outside contact other than a digital device.

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [07:31] AT: ∴ That is my honest advice, as your bandmate, confidant, and friend. ∴

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [07:31] CG: Nothing wrong with that...

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [07:32] CG: and honestly, i'm happy I came to you to talk about it.

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [07:33] AT: ∴ Truly? I'm flattered you hold me in high reguard as the dispenser of advice; ∴

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [07:35] AT: ∴ I suppose I think enough about enough things that some of the things I think about would be useful to share; ∴

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [07:35] AT: ∴ That is why philosophers write papers, I suppose. ∴

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [07:35] CG: More like a recent friend with a good head on their shoulders.

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [07:36] AT: ∴ Ah, well I suppose that is a good thing to be as well. ∴

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [07:37] CG: Stuff happens.

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [07:38] AT: ∴ It definitely does, almost constantly. ∴

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [07:38] CG: Weird how so many things are happening so fast.

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [07:39] AT: ∴ Well billions upon billions of "things" happen on our two planets every second; It is unfathomable how many different "things" happen outside our realm of understanding. ∴

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [07:40] CG: when you put it that way, it makes any kind of infinite possibility seem possible.

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [07:40] AT: ∴ I assure you, they are. ∴

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [07:41] CG: Hmm.

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [07:41] CG: Can't think of much else to say. Other than maybe we should share a video game together sometime.

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [07:42] AT: ∴ Perhaps we will, but for now, I'm going to practice swinging these chained objects I have released from their ceiling hanging places. ∴

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [07:42] CG: Hmm.

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [07:42] AT: ∴ and record if they make interesting enough sounds. ∴

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [07:43] CG: Alright. Maybe later I can show you some ball and chain items.

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [07:44] AT: ∴ I assure you I've seen historical and modern weapons, but I practice with what I have on hand. ∴

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [07:45] CG: Alright. Seeya.
