oh flattery gets you EVERYWHERE hold up i'll get you something
[she doesn't even finish her message, she just comes back with the best damn turkey sandwich orion will ever eat. it's like a double decker, with super juicy turkey, lettuce, bacon, and this creamy pesto spread that has a hint of kick to it. she puts it in orion's box.
Oh. This is delicious, Miss Lup - it's been some time since I've had a home cooked meal. Thank you very much: I feel invigorated. The rest of the work day should be easy.
sure thing bud i know how tiring the biz is i guess it's now my job to feed all of you yeesh
oh uh random number generator i think is what it stands for of all the people in the place i got randomly selected by fate to investigate the chicken doing the splits
[because jason made the shining jokes, and because sylvain is a big red puppy] oh jeez probably the hamster ball one us running through huge tunnels in a comically large hamster ball to escape the hunger was pretty funny
Men are always worth bossing around. As far as I've found, anyway.
... trying to be a little more optimistic, maybe? Well. For what it's worth, there will inevitably be many things here that are strange, so perhaps you'll have stories to tell.
And that's right, you certainly do have to work for them. A truly happy ending... now that's worth the work, though. Better than working with no goal in sight, don't you think?
...And that is understandable. Unfortunately, there's not much I can do for that. Any reassurances I have for you I doubt will be particularly reassuring.

oh uh
random number generator i think is what it stands for
of all the people in the place i got randomly selected by fate to investigate the chicken doing the splits
no subject
You don't have to take on the full burden, though. Surely there are others who would be glad to help.
And...
... I see.
Maybe it was destiny, then? What a funny thing for destiny to choose.
no subject
if anything i'll just make mr. torrance or clifford do all my dirty work for me
that's kind of how it works for me though!
if it's not funny or dramatically ironic i wriggle out of it
no subject
But someone who dodges fate - how interesting.
It must be nice, to have that skill.
What's the funniest of fates you've ever experienced?
no subject

oh jeez
probably the hamster ball one
us running through huge tunnels in a comically large hamster ball to escape the hunger was pretty funny
no subject
I see.
Well, nothing wrong with that. Carry on.
... That sounds...
Strange.
no subject
not that i needed it but it's great to be validated
and it was!
lots of my life is strange but the other parts are sad and i'm sick of sad
no subject
As far as I've found, anyway.
... trying to be a little more optimistic, maybe?
Well. For what it's worth, there will inevitably be many things here that are strange, so perhaps you'll have stories to tell.
no subject
i like a good story too
i'd just like to have a happy ending this time
no subject
Didn't have one before?
no subject
an approximation of, anyway
i'm out of hell and trying but i guess you gotta work for the happy endings and man do i hate doing work
no subject
And that's right, you certainly do have to work for them.
A truly happy ending... now that's worth the work, though.
Better than working with no goal in sight, don't you think?
no subject
ughhhhhhh
UGHHHHH
no subject
The goal, perhaps, is to find a way to live in bliss without having to work too hard. Or maybe never having to work again?
no subject
live in bliss, huh
i'd just like to go home and not worry about my brother being dead.
no subject
...And that is understandable.
Unfortunately, there's not much I can do for that.
Any reassurances I have for you I doubt will be particularly reassuring.
What is your brother like?
no subject
he's
everything
brilliant, clever, hysterical
i miss him already it wasn't enough to be home
no subject
I can tell you at least he's currently safe, though you only have our word to take for it.
no subject
i believe you weirdly enough
there's no point to us being here if our hostages aren't dangling over our heads somewhere right out of our reach
it's okay
i'll just save him again
no subject
I wish you all the best of luck, Miss Lup.
no subject
one last question before i go wrangle the kids
do you know when we're going to get to harass you all in person or no
no subject
But... perhaps there's a light at the end of our tunnel.
Are you looking forward to it?
