Brushing the dust off, Homeless
You know, just because your friends are jumping on the bandwagon doesn't mean that you have to.
By friends I mean friend.
As in a singular source of potential inspiration.
Don't get me wrong, I definitely understand the pull of friendship and the things that it can make you do, but do we really have to do this?
What happened to you being nervous about all of this?
Oh right. I wasn't supposed to mention that.
Well, I guess I'm here now.
Out in the wild, prey to the wolves.
Here goes nothing.

Sweet. I love werewolves. It has been my life dream to see one in person.
*you're
no subject
we get angsty teenage werewolves that have a knack for getting their blood sugar up
a lot of them are in a sour mood too so id watch your back
dont worry dude you didnt use the wrong youre up there no need to correct yourself
no subject
Don't like having your spelling corrected?
no subject
you should feel honored that the world would provide you with your greatest wish of weepy werewolves working wistfully with their woes
better get the camera ready
gotta save that shit for the young ones
gather round grandpa pointy shades kids
boy does he have a story to tell you
seeing as its completely intentional i dont think it needs correcting
unless you feel the particular need to do it each time
ocd or some shit
feel free man but your hand is going to cramp sometime soon
no subject
I don't know where the grandkids are going to come from.
I can always just go to the park and tell weird stories to the kids. If I'm old enough they'll just think I am senile and not a child molester.
Maybe.
On second thought maybe I shouldn't go that route.
Your spelling isn't the problem here. It's your punctuation, but I tend to avoid correcting that. I know very few people who actually care all that much about punctuation.
no subject
or meteor babies i mean clearly some strange shit can happen
but talking to random children in the park sounds good to me too
like the wise old man sitting by the fire place in a tavern
except you on a park bench with a bunch of dumb birds
honestly i dont really know where we are going with this anymore
Spelling, punctuation, it all sounds like English class to me.
Which was a class that didn't teach me to give a shit.
I mean why would I want to waste the fractions of seconds it takes to hit the stupid shift button?
fuck it cant do it sorry man that shit aint happening
my shift button doesnt want to click
probably because that was its first time being clicked
like a virgin tapped for the very first time
no subject
I would have to look back at our chat log because I have honestly lost track of what your original intended purpse was in messaging me. I get the feeling that this won't be the last time that we both lose track of your rambling metaphors.
Your poor fingers must be so strained from the added effort. I'm sorry. I should have never criticised your allergy to even thinking about touching the shift key.
no subject
you did fine raising me
well since you apologized im gonna have to forgive you
since you are being so sincere
just dont expect it to ever happen again
that was it
never again
just for you
no subject

What else is out here that I need to worry about?
no subject
There's also the creatures and beings that populate this place and others.
no subject
Because I definitely like all of those things that you just listed.
Okay so what are the limits of this universe? Is it just one or are we dealing with multitudes of universes in all of their complex glory?

What did you expect?
no subject
Something less human shaped.

You sounded fortunate.
As for my form...

There, is that better?

Re: 2/2
I tend to stay away from them if I can.

The differences is, I'm being cordial right now and trying to be nonthreatening.
And you may notice you have a distinct lack of death on your end.
no subject
Which I appreciate, might I add.
If you don't mind my asking, why did you decide to talk to me?
no subject
Why did you choose to make a public communication of your current trepidation for your renewed existence? I'd imagine that the sentiment is roughly the same.
Though I do find this conversation interesting. And I generally don't like being forced to do a conversation that lacks any meaning whatsoever.
no subject
I'm glad that makes two of us. I never thought I would meet an Outer being without, you know, my brain melting out of my ears or something equally as ridiculous as that. I especially didn't expect to have a conversation and keep my sanity in tact for so long.
Do you make it a regular habit to speak with humans?
no subject
And I could do that too if you want me to.
no subject
Thanks for the offer.
no subject
Now, I could return the question to you. If you know what I am and are disquieted by me, then why persist in conversation? Aside from your player's musing there is no need to prolong your discomfort.
no subject
Just because something makes me somewhat uncomfortable doesn't necessarily mean that it isn't interesting enough for me to want to learn more about it. I don't know if discomfort would exactly be the word I would use to describe you to be completely honest. Like all of the others I definitely get that tingly, clammy sort of feeling but you're pleasant enough to speak with. At least enough so where it outweighs my hesitations.
Besides, when else will I get the opportunity to speak to one of your kind without completely losing my shit just by looking at them?
no subject
The more important question is how often you would get this close to one of us without our presence maligning the very core of your being?
If not consume you outright.
no subject
Satisfying my curiosity is not on that list.
no subject
In fact it is the fact that I am making an effort to inhibit my effect on reality around me is what is allowing us to have this conversation with little harm to you.
It's very hard, you know.
no subject
At the very least you are no longer holding the human form. Does that make it a little less strenuous?
no subject
And no. Maintaining a human form is just a small fraction compared to pulling in myself. But it is not hard. I can do this forever if I wished.
[You are such a dirty liar, Yggy...]
no subject
you know sometimes just one friend is enough.
hahahaha or it's certainly better than none!
i think. i don't know man, there's nothing wrong with a little guess work.
not everything has to go with a plan, that's just dull.
no subject
Guess work can be the difference between total party wipeout and a major success. I am of the belief that having a plan is the best thing that you can do for yourself. If you have a plan, there is a solid foundation to base any future thoughts and actions on. If that plan fails, that is what back up plans are for.
Not having a plan? That shit sucks.
no subject
ahh i suppose you're right.
i'm for sure not a planning type though. go with the flow works for me without too much issue hehehe.
rose only seemed to have one plan, for us to be where we are now, but it did work! with a lot of running around.
she's smart like that, albeit reckless too.
i dunno, having plans are kinda restricting at times. like. does it always have to follow a set path? what about when stuff doesn't work? where's the thinking on your feet and landing with something completely unexpected??
no subject
That's what back up plans are for. Just because you have one back up plan doesn't mean you can't have more. Developing plans on the fly or modifying previous plans based on events that occur in real time is a very important skill that every master planner should have. Without that, you are more likely to get stressed and overwhelmed than anything else.
So I guess, in shorthand, being able to be flexible in your planning is ultimately the best option.
no subject
its good to try and overcome em
esp when it means i get to prey on some strider ;3
no subject
Glad to see that one of us is at least somewhat enthusiastic about this potentially surprising turn of events.
If I were being honest I would have to say that I am adjusting to it. I am still trying to decide if that is a good thing or a bad thing.
What brings you to this neck of the proverbial woods?
no subject
after being stuck in a game
kinda miss my coolkid
there are worst things 2 be adjusted to
*too?
*man can never remember the diff between to and too for sentence ends
mostly around to bother u
no subject
To would be correct. The form 'Too' is used when you are describing something in addition to the subject matter.
For example: "He too wanted to be able to become a sweet motherfucking ninja."
That sentence was a bit strange format wise, but you get the point.
Or a simpler example for your exact problem: "Me too."
Whether or not that is a full sentence can be debated, but it's close enough.
At least we can return to some semblance of normalcy. Your ridiculously pink text has become a beacon of hope in the turbulent storm that is what I have come to expect of life.
no subject
u r the exact opposite of wrong
in one of those official games of meta space
amnesia team one where i get to learn about my life in lil chunks

dawwww
<3 u too
been missing your orange
the most sure thing in my life
