being alive is pretty rad

「That's all. What? People are always telling the most ridiculous things over the network, why can't he?

No, he's not high, though, he should be.」



「Private: Law」

I'm sorry.

「Checkmate.」

both

and you carlisle at what point are you?

「Oh, Egyptian Gods...」

[text]

[tongueamok]

I am merely tired of contemplating such foolishness.

[text]

[puzzlingly]

is that all you do? watch from afar?

[text]

[tongueamok]

I cannot change the minds of everyone here, lad.

[text]

[puzzlingly]

no certainly not... but sometimes it helps to talk about it

「Not that it would have helped in his case but...」

[text]

[tongueamok]

I have tried speaking with certain individuals. It has yet to alleviate my concerns.

[text]

[puzzlingly]

what concerns?

[text]

[tongueamok]

It doesn't particularly matter now, does it?

[They didn't listen to him anyway, and he probably shouldn't be discussing this with a near stranger. Sigh.]

I have attempted to make peace with it for the time being.

[puzzlingly]

your concerns always matter carlisle

you sound more like youre giving up

[text]

[tongueamok]

Perhaps I am.

「Sweet Ra, Carlisle don't do this.」

dont

[text]

[tongueamok]

[What an odd response, Carlisle thinks.]

I have simply realized it is an argument I cannot win, and my time and energy could be better spent.

[He's pretty limited on both of those fronts as it is.]

[puzzlingly]

you can always rely on others
you dont have to do everything yourself
that way... you will not spend yourself either

「Oh man, is he revealing too much? The little hypocrite.」

[text]

[tongueamok]

I have others I rely on, but I fail to see how my activities are any of your concern.

[So... just a bit revealing, apparently.]

[text]

[puzzlingly]

thats fair
i wasnt talking about myself

[tongueamok]

You seem awfully persistent for someone who wasn't talking about himself. And what did you mean, 'spend myself'?

[Because that sounded real specific.]

[puzzlingly]

「Busted... kind of... huh.」

i think you know what i mean

「Awfully persistent? Oh, this is nothing.」

[tongueamok]

I do not.

[Yes he does. He totally does.]

[puzzlingly]

oh well :)

「haha... ah.」

[tongueamok]

No, no faces. I know what the faces mean, so you can stop that right now.

[puzzlingly]

what do you mean?
a face is a face
like
:D
or
idk
:c
or even
03

like a cat i know

「fuck it, fuck it all.」

[tongueamok]

Cats don't look anything like that.

[puzzlingly]

this one does

[tongueamok]

What kind of world do you come from where cats have eyes like that?

[Those are its eyes, right? both the 0 and the 3? People and their technology and their faces that don't make sense. This is ridiculous. He should just put his communicator down and ignore this nonsense.

But he doesn't because he's irritated. Good job, Carlisle.]

[puzzlingly]

i met him here idk where he came from
