 [05:55] GA: Hello?

 [05:55] CG: Oh uh...hi.

 [05:55] GA: Oh hi! I'm really sorry for yesterday! One of the monkeys managed to get the drop on me and i got really busy!

 [05:56] CG: Oh is that why? Eh. I got busy anyway so...no biggie.

 [05:58] CG: So what do you do for a living?

 [05:59] GA: But it is! We were having an actually nice conversation and i'll be damned if i'll let actual monkey bussines get me out of one.

 [05:59] CG: Or you'd end up a monkeys uncle before that happens.

 [06:00] GA: That's actually true? Technically at least, still, i like to make spy gadgets on my free time!

 [06:00] GA: you?

 [06:00] CG: FLARP stuff.

 [06:01] GA: FLARP?

 [06:01] CG: Fatal Live Action Role Play

 [06:01] GA: Wait what? How does that work??

 [06:02] CG: Simple. You ever played or heard of role playing games?

 [06:02] CG: Well in this, you dress up, pretend to be another character, and the fights you 'pretend' to have are actually real and deadly.

 [06:02] GA: Yes, tried playing a few with Betzy, turns out AI'S are merciless and really good at screwing you over.

<p style=" margin-top:0px; margin-bottom:0px; margin-left:0px; margin-right:0px; -qt-block-indent:0; text-indent:0px;"> [06:02] GA: Wait, as in, using real weapons with real injuries?

<p style=" margin-top:0px; margin-bottom:0px; margin-left:0px; margin-right:0px; -qt-block-indent:0; text-indent:0px;"> [06:03] CG: Yeah. All I get are boffer weapons though. But they do the job too.

<p style=" margin-top:0px; margin-bottom:0px; margin-left:0px; margin-right:0px; -qt-block-indent:0; text-indent:0px;"> [06:04] GA: Hmmm. Interesting, do you train to use them as deadly as possible as well?

<p style=" margin-top:0px; margin-bottom:0px; margin-left:0px; margin-right:0px; -qt-block-indent:0; text-indent:0px;"> [06:04] CG: Yes.

<p style=" margin-top:0px; margin-bottom:0px; margin-left:0px; margin-right:0px; -qt-block-indent:0; text-indent:0px;"> [06:05] GA: How many kinds of weapons do you know how to use?

<p style=" margin-top:0px; margin-bottom:0px; margin-left:0px; margin-right:0px; -qt-block-indent:0; text-indent:0px;"> [06:06] CG: Axe, sword, mace, spear, bow and arrow... but they're all generally Boffer weapons.

<p style=" margin-top:0px; margin-bottom:0px; margin-left:0px; margin-right:0px; -qt-block-indent:0; text-indent:0px;"> [06:06] CG: What i prefer to use is a trusty

<p style=" margin-top:0px; margin-bottom:0px; margin-left:0px; margin-right:0px; -qt-block-indent:0; text-indent:0px;"> [06:06] CG: one of a kind

<p style=" margin-top:0px; margin-bottom:0px; margin-left:0px; margin-right:0px; -qt-block-indent:0; text-indent:0px;"> [06:06] GA: A boffer one?

<p style=" margin-top:0px; margin-bottom:0px; margin-left:0px; margin-right:0px; -qt-block-indent:0; text-indent:0px;"> [06:07] CG: A REAL one...

<p style=" margin-top:0px; margin-bottom:0px; margin-left:0px; margin-right:0px; -qt-block-indent:0; text-indent:0px;"> [06:07] GA: Can you play it?

<p style=" margin-top:0px; margin-bottom:0px; margin-left:0px; margin-right:0px; -qt-block-indent:0; text-indent:0px;"> [06:07] CG: Yes.

<p style=" margin-top:0px; margin-bottom:0px; margin-left:0px; margin-right:0px; -qt-block-indent:0; text-indent:0px;"> [06:07] GA: While fighting?

<p style=" margin-top:0px; margin-bottom:0px; margin-left:0px; margin-right:0px; -qt-block-indent:0; text-indent:0px;"> [06:07] CG: It's either one or the other.

<p style=" margin-top:0px; margin-bottom:0px; margin-left:0px; margin-right:0px; -qt-block-indent:0; text-indent:0px;"> [06:08] CG: I kept it sturdy enough to handle whacks while still be playable.

<p style=" margin-top:0px; margin-bottom:0px; margin-left:0px; margin-right:0px; -qt-block-indent:0; text-indent:0px;"> [06:08] GA: Well i'll be damned.

<p style=" margin-top:0px; margin-bottom:0px; margin-left:0px; margin-right:0px; -qt-block-indent:0; text-indent:0px;"> [06:09] GA: It never ocurred to me that a civilian would do these kinds of things for fun

<p style=" margin-top:0px; margin-bottom:0px; margin-left:0px; margin-right:0px; -qt-block-indent:0; text-indent:0px;"> [06:09] GA: actuall joy derived from it, it's amazing

<p style=" margin-top:0px; margin-bottom:0px; margin-left:0px; margin-right:0px; -qt-block-indent:0; text-indent:0px;"> [06:10] CG: You have no idea...

<p style=" margin-top:0px; margin-bottom:0px; margin-left:0px; margin-right:0px; -qt-block-indent:0; text-indent:0px;"> [06:11] GA: Well, yes and no. I don't exactly do what i do out of entertainment, but the similarities are quite amazing.

<p style=" margin-top:0px; margin-bottom:0px; margin-left:0px; margin-right:0px; -qt-block-indent:0; text-indent:0px;"> [06:11] CG: You do it for survival... Well there are ways of making it entertaining you know.

<p style=" margin-top:0px; margin-bottom:0px; margin-left:0px; margin-right:0px; -qt-block-indent:0; text-indent:0px;"> [06:12] GA: As in?

<p style=" margin-top:0px; margin-bottom:0px; margin-left:0px; margin-right:0px; -qt-block-indent:0; text-indent:0px;"> [06:13] CG: Dressing up, playing as another character to practice disguises and blending in with a crowd...

<p style=" margin-top:0px; margin-bottom:0px; margin-left:0px; margin-right:0px; -qt-block-indent:0; text-indent:0px;"> [06:13] CG: ...stealth games...?

<p style=" margin-top:0px; margin-bottom:0px; margin-left:0px; margin-right:0px; -qt-block-indent:0; text-indent:0px;"> [06:15] GA: What race are you?

<p style=" margin-top:0px; margin-bottom:0px; margin-left:0px; margin-right:0px; -qt-block-indent:0; text-indent:0px;"> [06:16] CG: Half-troll-and who the hell was that?

<p style=" margin-top:0px; margin-bottom:0px; margin-left:0px; margin-right:0px; -qt-block-indent:0; text-indent:0px;"> [06:16] GA: The AI I was talking about. Now, please, tell me. Are you on earth or the connecting planet?

<p style=" margin-top:0px; margin-bottom:0px; margin-left:0px; margin-right:0px; -qt-block-indent:0; text-indent:0px;"> [06:17] CG: I'm in the mountainside in a rich manor living with my mother-how did you even get her?

<p style=" margin-top:0px; margin-bottom:0px; margin-left:0px; margin-right:0px; -qt-block-indent:0; text-indent:0px;"> [06:20] GA: It tells me if you had prepared an answer like that beforehand, no one really remembers naturally things like that. And i mean literal shadows, Seclusion does things to a people.

<p style=" margin-top:0px; margin-bottom:0px; margin-left:0px; margin-right:0px; -qt-block-indent:0; text-indent:0px;"> [06:21] GA: Now please, would you kindly tell me what happens if a tree falls and there is no one to hear it? Is there sound?

<p style=" margin-top:0px; margin-bottom:0px; margin-left:0px; margin-right:0px; -qt-block-indent:0; text-indent:0px;"> [06:21] CG: It'll still make a sound even if no one is around to hear it-WAIT A MINUTE

<p style=" margin-top:0px; margin-bottom:0px; margin-left:0px; margin-right:0px; -qt-block-indent:0; text-indent:0px;"> [06:27] GA: Not my mother trying to teach me some psychological lesson about trust.

<p style=" margin-top:0px; margin-bottom:0px; margin-left:0px; margin-right:0px; -qt-block-indent:0; text-indent:0px;"> [06:28] CG: Look up Jossik Katarn online. He's my father, and he makes fine FLARP equipment.

<p style=" margin-top:0px; margin-bottom:0px; margin-left:0px; margin-right:0px; -qt-block-indent:0; text-indent:0px;"> [06:29] CG: Prove you can earn the right to buy this stuff and you can be sure as hell that you can gain what you need to not only better yourself, but use it as an excuse to say you're practicing and have fun doing it.

<p style=" margin-top:0px; margin-bottom:0px; margin-left:0px; margin-right:0px; -qt-block-indent:0; text-indent:0px;"> [06:29] CG: Just leave word that Eddy Malloy sends his regards. He's my father.

<p style=" margin-top:0px; margin-bottom:0px; margin-left:0px; margin-right:0px; -qt-block-indent:0; text-indent:0px;"> [06:29] CG: Should show that I, as a fellow FLARPER, approve of you as being worth taking in to try this out.

<p style=" margin-top:0px; margin-bottom:0px; margin-left:0px; margin-right:0px; -qt-block-indent:0; text-indent:0px;"> [06:30] CG: Oh don't worry...You're getting better materials whether you think you do or not...

<p style=" margin-top:0px; margin-bottom:0px; margin-left:0px; margin-right:0px; -qt-block-indent:0; text-indent:0px;"> [06:31] CG: I will not have a FLARP player in training go without proper gear...

<p style=" margin-top:0px; margin-bottom:0px; margin-left:0px; margin-right:0px; -qt-block-indent:0; text-indent:0px;"> [06:31] CG: Especially against what YOU go through...

<p style=" margin-top:0px; margin-bottom:0px; margin-left:0px; margin-right:0px; -qt-block-indent:0; text-indent:0px;"> [06:32] GA: Yes.. i can't be fighting monkeys without the proper equipment can't i?

<p style=" margin-top:0px; margin-bottom:0px; margin-left:0px; margin-right:0px; -qt-block-indent:0; text-indent:0px;"> [06:32] CG: Not like this.

<p style=" margin-top:0px; margin-bottom:0px; margin-left:0px; margin-right:0px; -qt-block-indent:0; text-indent:0px;"> [06:32] CG: Just let your AI know she can contact me at any time for anything else.

<p style=" margin-top:0px; margin-bottom:0px; margin-left:0px; margin-right:0px; -qt-block-indent:0; text-indent:0px;"> [06:32] CG: Or eh...I'm sure she's reading this.
