Sorry, I just need to fill this giant void in my life with shitty jokes.

[speakveryclearly]

Control your sylph.

[tipsygnostalgia]

I have no control, my sense of humour has gone rogue.

[Okay that one was a stretch but w/e]

[speakveryclearly]

[She said sylph for self she will forgive anything really]

Sense of Humor? Gone looking for their quest bed?

[tipsygnostalgia]

[There's a short pause]

Damn. I can't think up another one.

[speakveryclearly]

Yeah. I was groping helplessly for an "of" there. I think we've officially exhausted our supply of words.

[tipsygnostalgia]

Oh well. There's always next time.

[speakveryclearly]

Maybe Aradia will show up soon.

[Beat.] Maid of Time. Our... yeah.

[tipsygnostalgia]

Sollux said we're pretty much doomed since we had no time or space players.

[speakveryclearly]

I wonder why not. Your predecessors had both...

[tipsygnostalgia]

I dunno, but I was telling him about that, and then the miles thing on Earth.. then the miles thing wrecking Derse.. then all of us dying at least once.. we're pretty fucked.

It's why I wish we could all be here instead. I mean, the chances of not sucking and dying seem a little better.

[speakveryclearly]

I know. Instead of the odds being ever stacked against us, for once they seem to be in our favor. The Mongols were hardly a challenge, and we were able to aptly defend the city against the monsters too. Our victory might not be assured, but at least possible and not entirely glitched into oblivion.

[tipsygnostalgia]

Pretty much. At least we have more of a chance here, right? I just don't get it when so many people complain about being here, but then again I guess they just got luckily enough to grow up and live somewhere that wasn't shit. Or the shit stuff hadn't happened yet.

[speakveryclearly]

In my experience they think the former but are the latter.

[tipsygnostalgia]

Kinda envious of them really.

[speakveryclearly]

I don't understand how their upbringing can work.

[tipsygnostalgia]

They were lucky enough to have normal lives. Or what I assume were normal, boring lives where nothing really terrible happened, for the most part.

[speakveryclearly]

Boring I suppose being the key word. How that's a license for so much cruelty, I don't know.

[tipsygnostalgia]

I don't know either.

[speakveryclearly]

At least I have reason to believe it isn't an intrinsic genetic trait.

[ROXY...]

[tipsygnostalgia]

What's not?

[speakveryclearly]

Just... the human capacity for cruelty. Not inevitable.

[tipsygnostalgia]

I guess it's the same for any race. Some people are can just be really, really cruel, whereas other's are not so bad.

[speakveryclearly]

How many other races have you known? I can think of the Sah-Marad, and also you mmentioned cherubs to me once.

[tipsygnostalgia]

I only knew of trolls, humans, the chess dudes and cherubs before here. There's quite a few more here though.
