I'm just going to assume this is Hux, what do you need?

[He doesn't think there's been any change, aside from not landing in the lounge as much. Which, come to think, probably explains it.]

About usual. You?

[tetractys]

WELL, MY WARDEN'S DEPRESSED AND MY BOYFRIEND'S DEPRESSED AND I HAVE NO IDEA HOW TO FIX THAT!

PLUS, DID YOU SEE THE NUMBER OF PEOPLE WE LOST THIS MONTH? I THINK IT HAPPENS BECAUSE THEY DON'T GET TALKED TO ENOUGH! IF YOU'RE NOT ENTERTAINING THE AUDIENCE, YOU GET THE BOOT!

[onlyeverdoubted]

[Right, this little theory of Bill's. Which he can't argue with. Kriff, that'd solve pretty much all his problems.]

Yes, everything is pretty terrible.

[tetractys]

WELL, EVERYTHING'S ALWAYS TERRIBLE.

HEY, I JUST WANTED TO SAY THAT I DON'T WANT YOU TO VANISH! YOU'RE FUN. WE SHOULD CATCH UP MORE. YOU DON'T HAVE TO ACTUALLY TALK ABOUT ANYTHING.

[onlyeverdoubted]

I am not fun. But I haven't gone anywhere.

[tetractys]

IT'S TOO LATE TO NOT BE FUN!

[onlyeverdoubted]

I never have been. You'd think it would have done whatever the trick is by now.

[tetractys]

YES YOU ARE. YOU WANT PEOPLE TO THINK YOU'RE NOT THINKING SARCASTIC THINGS, BUT YOU ARE, AND I'M NOT FOOLED!

[onlyeverdoubted]

Alright, I do a lot of that, yes.

[tetractys]

I LIKE TALKING TO YOU! I'D BE REALLY SAD IF YOU LEFT.

YOU'RE GONNA BE REAL UNCOMFORTABLE ABOUT ME SAYING THAT, BUT I SAID IT ANYWAY!

[onlyeverdoubted]

I do appreciate that this isn't a verbal conversation.

[Bill stop.]

[tetractys]

WHAT IF YOU'RE NOT TERRIBLE AND PEOPLE LIKE YOU! WOULD THAT BE THE WORST, OR WHAT

[onlyeverdoubted]

I don't even like me.

[tetractys]

YEAH, I JUST FIGURED THAT OUT, I THINK.

SEEMS LIKE IT'S GOING AROUND, BUT I DON'T KNOW HOW TO FIX IT.

[onlyeverdoubted]

It would held to not be an utter failure, probably.

[tetractys]

YOU GOT THE BIG SPACE STATION BLOWN UP, RIGHT? PLUS, YOU SURVIVED WHATEVER THAT TENTACLE THING WAS!

SPEAKING AS A TENTACLE THING THAT'S KILLED A LOT OF FOLKS, THAT AIN'T NOTHING.

[onlyeverdoubted]

It wasn't ever supposed to go online. There's a moon and at least two planets that aren't impressed with the job I did.

[tetractys]

PLANS DON'T SURVIVE CONTACT WITH REALITY VERY OFTEN.

HOW BAD WOULD IT HAVE BEEN IF YOU WEREN'T THERE AT ALL?

[onlyeverdoubted]

Like if they got someone who could convince a cell of rebels that walking up and handing them intel was a sign of good faith?

[tetractys]

LIKE IF THEY DIDN'T GET ANYBODY.

[onlyeverdoubted]

Any errand boy?

[tetractys]

YEAH.

[onlyeverdoubted]

I don't think that's hard to find.

[tetractys]

BUD, YOU'RE FIGHTING ME ON THIS, DON'T FIGHT ME ON THIS.

THEY COULD HAVE ALL BEEN COWARDS. THEY COULDA SENT A GUY THAT DIDN'T MAKE IT. THEY COULDA HAD WHATEVER YOU NEEDED TO DELIVER DESTROYED BY THE ENEMY BEFORE THEY COULD SEND IT.

[onlyeverdoubted]

Ok, I won't fight you.
