Hey, you're going to need to calm down.

[ Yeah, this is going to go great, Jim can already tell. ]

You're ... probably not going to die. [ Not strictly true, but this guy doesn't need to know that just yet. ] Should be food and a coat nearby.

Don't go spitting out platitudes.

[It's an immediate, biting retort. Also: who the fuck is this kid.]

Giving out enough to stave off freezing or starving to death immediately isn't goddamn gracious. It's torture.

[rattlingthestars]

Sure, panic and make everyone here hate you your first day. Great plan, buddy.

[ This kid is a passive-aggressive mumbler is who he is. ]

Nobody said it was gracious, but unless you actually want to die you're going to need to figure some stuff out pretty quickly.

[hangfire]

You think I didn't notice that?

[Thanks, Captain Obvious.]

And either speak up when you're talking or don't say such whispered words at all. Talking to yourself is for the insane.

[rattlingthestars]

I dunno, apparently you didn't pay enough attention to realize you weren't talking to the person who kidnapped you.

[hangfire]

Of course I know it's not you, you sarcastic brat. Their name is right there-- what do you expect??

[rattlingthestars]

Hey, watch who you're calling a brat!

[hangfire]

What, did I hit a nerve?

Grow up.

[rattlingthestars]

You come in here yelling like she's even listening, insulting everyone else, and I'm the one that needs to grow up?

pot calling the kettle black etc etc

[hangfire]

If all you can give someone for an answer is childish sass, then yes, you do.

[rattlingthestars]

Whatever. [ Yes, there is a sigh. Yes, it is dramatic. ]

[hangfire]

[Cool. Glad we had this talk, kid.]

You're wasting my time.

Either explain what you mean by figuring things out, or assume we're done here.

[rattlingthestars]

[ Jim wants to hang up on him, but he doesn't; survival around here isn't anything to laugh at, even if he does think the guy's an asshole. ]

I meant you're going to have to fingure out where you are, where the nearest supply point is, and what to do when you run into a thing that can kill you by touching you. Find a weapon as soon as you can. Everything else can wait until you're bored enough to read the network.
