Seeking: dedicated screen-readers and someone who isn't afraid to escort an understandably intimidating individual into the city on occasional outings. Inquire within with references. No patsies required.

Hey.
Has anyone heard from Terezi? I can't get a hold of her.

Hey, M.M.? I need some help with something. Can you come over? Like, soon would be really helpful. Seriously.

Comments

[silicomb]

Of course not.

They're already automatically accepted, after all.

[sermonize]

Oh? No going over my decently long application?

[silicomb]

Insta-accepted, stamped for approval. I read it in the precise nano-second it was in my possession.

[sermonize]

Hmmm. If you could read it, then why ask for someone to be a screen reader?

[silicomb]

... I sniff-read it.

[sermonize]

Sniff-read?

[silicomb]

Sniff-read it. Maybe lick-read too.

Do I look like the fucking synesthesia expert here? You're accepted anyway.

[sermonize]

No, I was just thinking of how clever such a method is.

[silicomb]

[ HUFF stop making him puff up bro, his ego si big enough as is ]

Yeah well, it's a method.

[sermonize]

Is it working well?

[silicomb]

Not as well as a fresh pair of oculars, but it's okay.

So, uh. How're you.

[sermonize]

[ sensitive topic, hmmm. ok. ]

Well, I think. I mean I'm managing not to gorge myself on sweets, so there's that.

[silicomb]

I'm amazed at your self-control. No normal troll could have resisted as you have done.

[ y u so bizarrely endearing, bro. ]

[sermonize]

[ because. it's in your blood to like him, right? 8D~ ]

I have spent many sweeps in training, young one. Perhaps when you get a little older, I will teach you the ways of patience and self restraint.

[silicomb]

[ dammit, genetic and biological imperative!!! DX ]

But what if I want to learn it now?

[ plaintive, just for you man. ]

[sermonize]

Who is to say this might not be a lesson in patience?
