TEXT 02

[fleshing]

[Anyone who's seen Krieg type before might be prepared for the walls of poorly-written text-vomit. Anyone else might be...alarmed. No, he isn't having a stroke. No, he doesn't not know how to work the keys. That's just how he types.]

gggoOT SOME GOOD S GOODIES FOR AY!!!!!!!!!!
coM FINd we dELIVER ALLLLLLll; DAYdaydyaDAY

[Beneath are a series of image attachments, labeled thusly:

> SPIKY NO-NOS
> red reD Rerd red red
> i liKED it!!!!!!!!
> CHIPS
> thIS IS NOT ORGANIC!!!!!
> fFOR KEEPSSSS DO NOT TOUCH TOUCH

Evidently, he didn't mean to attach the last image. He's going to keep the teddy bear. It's his teddy bear. It loves him. It understands him. He wants it by his side forever.]

[Oh geez. Krieg had drawn the connection between killing monsters and getting rewards, but he hadn't really clarified that the correlation between the two wasn't direct.

OH WAIT. Waitwaitwait!]

Gods give ya the goods!!

[glazedonutholes]

Gods? Like the alien kind or the ones that people pretend to follow?

[fleshing]

Real, real, real! Hope gives us presents!!

[Now is no time for debates about belief systems!]

[glazedonutholes]

Riiight. So your hope gives you presents.

[ He scratches his head. ]

I don't really need philosophical presents like that. But thanks anyways Mister.

[fleshing]

No! No, no, no!

[Does a broken thing like him still have hope? Of course not! Krieg grips the side of his head, trying to figure out how to explain this when his vocabulary is already pretty broken up into little little pieces.]

- Temples!

[That's the one coherent word he manages.]

[glazedonutholes]

Temples? What about them?

[ He waits for him to get the right words. He gets along fairly well with Caboose and he's hard to understand sometimes too. ]

[fleshing]

THEY LIVE THERE!

[Aaand he's suddenly shouting. Apologies to your eardrums, Donut.]

GO CHECK ON 'EM!!!

1/2

[glazedonutholes]

[ His poor ears! Have you no mercy!!! The sudden shout has him jerking from sheer surprise while making an unmanly noise of fright. The device, of course, does not make it and falls to the ground hitting the dirt. It takes him a moment to get his heart rate down enough to pick it back up. ]

2/3

[glazedonutholes]

[ Moments pass before his face shows up again looking a little frazzled. ]

You scared me there.

3/3

[glazedonutholes]

[ It takes him a moment or two to get over it. ]

There's no need to shout, you know. I'm not deaf. Besides, I don't know where the temples are around here.

[fleshing]

Nooooooo neeeeeed to shout! Shout! SHOOOOOUT!

[Krieg seems to have found his reaction hilarious. Maybe he'll do it again if Krieg keeps shouting!]

[glazedonutholes]

[ The initial surprise wears off and this time he's prepared for the loud yell. ]

You're enjoying this aren't you?

[ He's the Rookie on the Team so he's used to this kind of stuff. Still doesn't mean he likes it. ]

[fleshing]

[Krieg laughs, a loud, hearty guffaw. There's the sound of knee-slapping in the background.]

You're a jumpy target!

[glazedonutholes]

Well, yeah. But I haven't died yet~

[ He's very proud of that fact considering he's had the most near death experiences without actually, you know, dying. Looking at you Church.]

[fleshing]

IMPORTANT!

[He means that sincerely! That's a good skill, not dying, and not enough people appreciate it!]

Con-grat-yoooo-lations!!

[glazedonutholes]

Aww. Thanks.

And a congratulations to you too for not being killed by those monsters. I mean, they must have been pretty scary to go up against.

[fleshing]

No worse than the FLAMES in my SOUL!!!!

[He bursts into spontaneous laughter. It sounds more than a little unhinged.

But he's not joking. Killing's one of the few things that takes his mind off the fact that he's irreparably broken.]

[glazedonutholes]

You're right! I like your attitude mister!

When I go out monster looting I'm going to make sure to think of your brave words!

[fleshing]

Happy hunting!!!

[He salutes by way of farewell before cutting the feed. He did someone a good thing today!]
