You know when someone says things like this in a game it's usually because they're going into something dangerous and they don't want anyone else to get hurt, right?
[Levi can't help but feel somewhat ridiculous after reading this. It's grounding to be reminded that as realistic as the experience is, it's a game at the end of the day. What's the worst that'll happen to Barrett? He'll have to respawn and end up back at a root town. There's nothing to worry about.
And yet...that strange DM and conversation with Mithrun makes his unease difficult to shake. Did Barrett talk with that account after all? And if so, is that why he's suddenly being cagey?]

Mithrun told me you also got a weird DM. Did you end up hearing anything back? I couldn't even get a reply through on my end.

He actually stops on his way to the Chaos Gate to read this one carefully.]
Not from the admins.
I couldn't really read what I got, though.

Can you screenshot it and show me? I’ll try to decipher it. I’ve gotten pretty good at it from other games I’ve played.

Uhhhhhh.
quick Barrett think fast]
I can't right now.

What’s got you so busy?
Don’t tell me you bought another stack of quiches.

[And .2 seconds later:]
I meant yes. Sort of.
I'm gonna go eat them all. Right now. So I'm busy. Really busy.
[Smooth.]

I know I don’t need to know every little thing you’re doing when I’m not around but you don’t have to lie to me either.
You’re okay, right?
no subject
Maybe he should get through this gate before his older brother comes looking for him...]
Yeah, I'm fine. I promise.
But I really am busy with things. So don't come looking for me right now.
Promise you won't.

You're starting to freak me out.

It's just a game, Levi. Nothing can hurt us here.
If I find something cool out here, you'll be the first to know. Super promise. :-)
I need to go. Talk to you soon.
