[network] @magenta2; voice - morning 286 [open]

[himalayanyeti]

Mm, so, is anyone else here from a very long time ago?

[Magenta apparently decides to leave it at that for a couple minutes, before returning to elaborate on the question with a carefully maintained tone of carelessness to his voice. It's a far cry from what he actually sounds like when he's excited or happy, but to the casual listener, it's probably close enough.]

I mean--you know. I think we're s'posed to be in...twenty-one-and-something, I can't remember the exacts, but is anyone here from long before now? A few folks I've talked to have mentioned they're from twenty-something, early twenty-something, but I don't know about all of y'all.

[A pause.]

I'm from 1891, and I reckon it's all a little new to everyone, but it sure seems like y'all have an easier time of gettin' used to things! Computers, and the nan...nan--nanomachines, and whatever else. I don't really know much about any of it, and I'm not that smart to begin with! It's all past me, and I'm sorry for not bein' much help. I guess what I'm meanin' to ask is how everyone deals with figurin' stuff out from the future.

He~ey, though, while we're on it: tell me about the future! I've heard the airplanes are marvelous. I'm very interested in all of it, even if I can't quite get it.

While I am ninety percent sure you are talking out of your nonexistent arse, you are from the world with the genesis frogs in it.

[mrcreamsicles]

dont diss the ghost butt beckett
but see exactly
you never know what the fuck is going on with my world
i dont even know whats up with the rest of yours
some of you have shit like president corpselover up there
or vampires
and absolutely nobody ive talked to knows what a sylladex is yet
its a crying shame beckett how come the rest of yall havent come around to inventing space saving inventories like that
carrying all this junk around manually sucks ass

[bookofnope]

I would never diss a butt. Remember I hang out with Rhys.

[HE'S NOT EVEN SORRY]

But to be perfectly honest, I believe your world does take the cake, so to speak, when it comes to strangeness, even without teleporting presidents. Really, you don't need to make up anything. It's all right there.

[mrcreamsicles]

ok cool glad to know youre the local butt aficionado
but if we can stop pondering missing asses for a minute then no shit my worlds weird enough
but whats the point of being straightforward when the trolling opportunity is also right there
i gotta find my entertainment somehow in this town

[bookofnope]

More like part of a support network for the butt-challenged, but let us not linger too much on that before he sneezes on me again. If you're after entertainment, have you considered the community's astonishing reserves of smut?

[mrcreamsicles]

if i were after that karkats already got practically half the books that ever graced the smut huts shelves in his bag

[bookofnope]

And yet he seems to be about as easy to fluster on the matter as a fourteen year old American girl. He needs an intervention, Davesprite.

[mrcreamsicles]

ive tried
ive called him on it
offered to start a support group
teased him relentlessly when that didnt work
but the troll loves his smut
he says hes in it for the romance but im onto him
theres no romance when the titles include phrases like slammed in the butt

[bookofnope]

Is it a troll thing? Or wait - I thought the smut mostly involved humans. Does he have some kind of xenofetish?





Or wait. Maybe I don't want to know.

[mrcreamsicles]

yeah im gonna cut that topic right here thanks
