A VR game, but not really?

Isn't that something that's more suited for someone else in your headspace? I'm not really a 'virtual' kind of girl; I prefer my reality all natural, thanks. No faux-reality for me.

No.

Seriously.


Stop writing that application or whatever right now, it's so not gonna happen!



Hel-lo?

Mun, are you listening? Mun?!

[ ... ] Oh, yeah, that whole forgetting you're in a simulation thing does kinda suck pretty hardcore. [Not that he would have any first-hand experience with that or anything.] Yeah, you might wanna try to avoid that if you can.

[ ... x2] Hey, if something's hardcore means it's major and softcore means it's no big, then what does it mean if something's just core?

[sopossible]

I don't think it's so much 'forgetting' as that it's not as much of a simulation as they tell you. Or maybe it's too good of one. Either way, it's gonna get nasty in there.

[...]

I don't think that's something you can really use as an adjective.

[...can you?]

Well- pretty sure it's not, at least.

[leiothrix_lutea]

Thaaaaat's probably even worse. And kinda a more important reason to walk the other way fast as possible.

And hey! They should-a thought of that before they went and made adjectives with prefixes. You can't just add a prefix to something and end up with a word that doesn't even have anything to do with the original!

Would if I could, but she's looking pretty dead set on this whole deadly video game thing.

Shoulda, woulda, coulda. Probably didn't much care. Linguists, really. So not much for the common sense.

[leiothrix_lutea]

Well best of luck, I guess. Gird your loins and all that. Wish I could give you some hope except ... at least you'll probably come out the other end and learned something about yourself.

[sopossible]

Thanks- something tells me I'll need it, even if my mun thinks I can handle it. If this is a learning experience though, next time I'll have to ask to turn the coursework on life down a notch.

What about you? Getting stuck anywhere?

[leiothrix_lutea]

Careful, you might just end up in summer school!

Not that I know of? At least I hope not there. [Mutter] Mun should know better than to throw me into that twice.

[Er ... anyway.] Apparently she just really needed a journal for a character she plays over AIM. Which means she secretly wants to, she's just a big chicken.

[sopossible]

I don't do summer school. If anything, I've probably earned enough extra credit.

Really? Shame- at least my mun thinks so. [Wa...it a second...]

-you've been there before? Any tips you care to share?

[Please say yes?!]

Oh, I get that- my mun has a lot of journals 'just in case'. Code for 'it'll happen eventually, she just has to work up the nerve'.

[leiothrix_lutea]

Heh, I hear ya. Kids with a 4.0 don't need to do summerschool.

And, uh ... [a bit uncomfortable with this. He can share better than his other incarnations, but it's usually with someone he at least has a name for.] Not exactly? Something ... similar, I guess. Only lasted a couple hours, got out quick as we could, no one's suggested trying it again, no big.

[sopossible]

Exactly.

Oh. Disappointing, but no big. Guess I'll just have to figure out any shortcuts myself.
