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.

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

[ private; near ]
Hey, N.R.? Need some help with something. ASAP. This isn't a request, mind you. Hustle.

Define "intimidating."

[voice | private]

[want_the_world]

Sure, what do you need?

[spandexisyouth]

What is a patsie?

[voice | private]

[cardfortress]

[Huh, this was unexpected.]

Define "something".

[voice, private]

[dungenessmaster]

Nobody has. BREW decided she was just a little too competent or something and shuttled her back to the meteor again. It's like, why the hell is it even wasting the resources bringing in actual intelligence if it's just going to toss it right back where I came from?

[fortunetelloli]

Um, what are pasties?

[troll filter]

[silicomb]

That's stupid. Sure she didn't just run away screaming from your wicked fucking elixirs?

audio

[silicomb]

Magnificent? Far too great for the common masses to properly handle? Pan-blowing? Unofficial god of your species? Choose one of the above.

[voice | private]

[silicomb]

[ ok fuck he didn't think this far ahead, UHHH--- ]

Details on the rub, bro. Are you coming or not? Or do I have to find some other bipedal monkey to fill your shoes?

[silicomb]

Ever look in a mirror before?

[voice | private]

[silicomb]

Define "ASAP", cottonbulge. What part of that four-letter acronym have you not parsed?

[voice, private]

[silicomb]

[ aw, shit. he's forgotten just what Terezi's absence means to everyone other than himself. ]

Sometimes, I wish it'd just cool its fucking heels for a while, you know? I'm getting tired of this temporal horseshittery fast.

[ a pause. ]





Sorry.

[silicomb]

Hell if I know what a "pasty" is but I sure as hell know you could find the other easily enough.

Let me ask a question to further answer yours. Do you know what a dictionary is?

[fortunetelloli]

[She doesn't sound mad, just polite and a bit snide.] Do you know what a conversation starter is?

[voice | private]

[cardfortress]

Some individuals tend to exaggerate the urgency of whatever matter they require assistance with, so that the helping party will rush to their aid, instead of taking their time to do so.

What, exactly, do you need help with? I'm working.

[feelsgoodinyou]

"Understandably intimidating".

What the hell does that mean?

[troll filter]

[thehonking]

My wicked fuckin' elixirs should bring people running FOR them. [He chuckles.]

But I couldn't all say about our teal sis.

... To me, that sounds as if you would have a greater time moving about far from the city; lest you accidentally step on a building or one of those vehicles. A guide would be of little use, in such a case.

Assuming such is not your situation, however.

[troll filter]

[silicomb]

It's Terezi; you can never tell with her.

Fuck. We're in a dip in team members lately.

voice;

[sermonize]

Oh yes. Very intimidating.

voice;

[silicomb]

You have no idea.

[silicomb]

It means that if you're too taken aback by this-- [ there's a rustle, as if he's just presented himself like a new vehicle on show ] -- it's okay, I understand.

voice;

[sermonize]

I do not wish to know! I tremble in fear at this very moment.

Conversational opener, introduction. Noun. A preliminary part, or precursor, leading up to the main body of a conversation. [ dry and no less snide, but he's gotta say. he likes this.

it's a good change from the typical indignant citizen he's encountered so far. ]
