Yeah, I get it.

So what's the plan? You'd like to live, wouldn't you? And before you answer, don't give me any crap about not deserving a good, happy life.

[curvaceous]

Haha, you got me!

In all seriousness though, I don't know. I've been living this way for so long, that I'm not sure what it'll take to get me to change my ways.

What about you? What's your plan?

[weaseled]

Sounds like you need an external push.

[Noted. No man is an island, after all.]

As for me, I don't know. I've been in a rut ever since I broke my leg. All I know is the military life, but I've been thinking about leaving.

[curvaceous]

I see.

I can't claim to know what the best choice is, but...has the MMO done anything for you? It must be a change of pace. Isn't it nice, in some way?

[weaseled]

It's been nice being able to move around freely again. I can't say I totally hate it.

What about you? Gotten anything worthwhile out of the experience?

[curvaceous]

I think that's a nice bonus. When is your leg expected to heal?

It's been fun. A good escape from IRL. I think that's more than enough, for now. :)

[weaseled]

A couple more months. I graduated from crutches to a cane not too long ago.

A break from the real world is nice, but don't get addicted. You can say "that would never happen to me," but you've seen all those cases on the news, right? Lots of regular people getting completely sucked into these games.

[curvaceous]

Well, this was a good opportunity for you, then. Hoping for a speedy recovery. :)

And...yeah. I know. I've been seeing them pop up lately. It's scary. It's cool how immersive this is, but I can see how it'd be easy to get addicted.

[weaseled]

Thanks.

But that's what I've been saying all along. Did you read that NDA we had to sign? All of it?

[curvaceous]

Not all of it, tbh. But enough to know that it's weird that we can't discuss something as simple as system details with just anyone.

[weaseled]

Maybe they don't want their trade secrets exposed? The game's pretty early into development, after all. They don't want to give the competition an edge.

Or something shady's going on. Conspiracy theory level shit. Take your pick.

[curvaceous]

That's a good point. Trade secrets and all... I'd rather not go down the conspiracy theory hole :P

Do you think you'll continue participating in the beta? Do you think you'll stay for its entire duration?

[weaseled]

Who knows? Maybe, maybe not. Depends on how quick my leg heals.

[...But even Yael knows that's no longer a valid excuse. Before Kara calls him out, he'll be honest for once.]

I worry about some of the people playing this game. Some of them would walk straight off a cliff if you told them to and still wouldn't learn their lesson.

[curvaceous]

Honestly...yeah. I get it. Were you thinking of anyone in particular? Tell me!

[weaseled]

I'd like to think it's pretty obvious who I'm talking about, but feel free to make guesses.

[curvaceous]

Justy
Hector
Fandaniel
Owen
Brambles
Sinclair
Hani




FTR, I think Hani absolutely knows what they're doing LOL I just think they're funny

[weaseled]

[GOD. Where does he begin.]

Justy: Alcoholic. Pretends to be stupid because that's less trouble for him than acting like an adult.

Hector: Next question.

Fandaniel: Fuck that guy. Fuck that shitty bowl cut.

Owen: He's fine. One of those lonely weirdos who acts out online because they have no outlet IRL.

Brambles: Good kid. Smarter than he looks.

Sinclair: The kind of kid I'd give an atomic wedgie for fun in middle school. I hope he starts fighting back one of these days.

Hani: Weird vibes. Do you know them personally? If so, that's unfortunate.

[curvaceous]

OHHHH MY GOD! THIS IS INCREDIBLE!

Why the pass on Hector?? LOL????? Fandaniel seems funny. Agree re: Justy :/// Owen's alright too. Brambles is sweet! I've never met Sinclair but he seems like he needs a little shove.

I know Hani. We're roommates :D

Oh yeah since Fai went on the exploration with us, what do you think about him? :D

[weaseled]

Ask Hector. I bet he'd have a fun answer for you.

[ :) ]

Sorry for your taste in roommates. Anyway, haven't you asked me enough questions? Keep going and I'm going to start picking your brain too.

[curvaceous]

Okay, sure!!! I'll ask!

Don't dodge the question, Mister Yael. It's only natural to be curious because exploration buddies

Don't tell me you don't like him? :(

[weaseled]

Mister Yael? Eww. Stop that.

I've been on one dungeon run with the guy. One. What are you trying to imply exactly?

[curvaceous]

:) I'm going to keep calling you that if you don't answer my question!!!

??? I'm implying nothing, but you can't expect me to not pry when you're being so dodgy about him. Hector too but lmao I'm gonna ask him about you like you said xDDD

[weaseled]

At least buy me a drink or three if you're going to pry into my personal life.

Speaking of, I've got a hot date with a cold bottle. Why don't you run along and play?

[curvaceous]

Ohhhh, have fun, have fun! I'll buy you a drink next time, sure!

HAVE FUN WITH YOUR DATE!!! ;) ;) ;)

[ BYE, YAEL. ]
