im not sure how i feel about this game choice

on the one hand it sounds like it will be fun to explore a foreign environment with so much topographical variation

on the other i feel like you could have picked a better game for me than the one where my body will be drastically altered and ill spend all of my time underwater

havent i been through enough body modification for several lifetimes?

ghost frog robot fairy and now mermaid

just sounds silly when i string them together like that

still i am very interested in exploring this waterscape and seeing my friends

so please give some thought to this application

I Am Detecting A Subtle Irony Here
I Wonder What Our Sea Dweller Friends Would Think

[corpsepartier]

she even plans to change me to look more like a sea troll
and they say im insensitive!
i would expect them to be weirded out like myself honestly
probably mixed with a bit of condescension too
after all i can have gills but it still wont make me a highblood
have you been safe from mun-meddling so far kanaya?

[jadeblood]

I Suppose It Would Be A Source Of Confusion But Im Sure They Would Learn To Deal In Time
As For Me I Think I Would Be Happier With Gills Than All Of The Admittedly Baffling Human Appendages
Which Was The Original Plan

[corpsepartier]

human appendages?
i think if i had to pick between being a mutated troll in an aquarium and a human the aquarium would still be the better choice
would they at least have sent you on a cool journey after they gave you those appendages

[jadeblood]

It Would Certainly Be
Er
A Journey Of Sorts
A Quest To Discover Just How Certain Human Appendages Function
Which You Know Sounds Interesting In Theory But Perhaps Not So Enticing In Practice

[corpsepartier]

i dont think thats my kind of journey
if you want to learn theory you could probably ask one of the humans though!
and only practice if you want to
youll have a lot of time on the meteor to do both

[jadeblood]

I Would Imagine Asking The Humans About Their Mating Practices Is As Uncomfortable As It Is When They Ask About Ours
Not That That Has Ever Stopped Them Before

[corpsepartier]

theyre very curious
and usually about the worst things huh
i remember back when i was a robot i got very angry at rose for wanting to experiment with her session because of it
but then i was angry about a lot of things back then
wed probably get along a lot better now
do you think so kanaya?

[jadeblood]

Youre Asking Me
Oh
Well
I Think Approaching Her With A Friendlier Attitude Would Yield Better Results Indeed
Though She Is Fickle So I Cant Really Speak For Her
However I Think You Would Like Her If You Had The Chance Now

[corpsepartier]

well then i will have to speak to her next time we meet properly
i would love the chance to pick her brain for all the things she knows about the coming journey
even with as much as i know about time i still cant see as well as rose can
im a little jealous honestly

[jadeblood]

Youre Both The Envy Of Those Of Us Who Have Yet To Awaken To Our Abilities
If We Ever Will

[caligulas_aquarium]

hey
hey
aras mun
keep her out a the ocean
thats fuckin treason right there
or somethin

[corpsepartier]

maybe shell listen to you
but probably not
i hope you can get used to the idea of a maroon blooded sea dweller

[caligulas_aquarium]

[Eridan hopelessly clings to the idea the fourth wall will be broken and he can discuss this with Aradia's mun instead, outright ignoring Aradia for a few minutes...

But no dice.

So he'll sigh and resign himself to having to talk to the lowest blood there is. Ohhhh the agony of it all.]

no ACTUALLY this is a fuckin atrocity
youre a maroon blood you cant be a fuckin sea dwweller
evver
this is nonsense im not havvin this
im actually forbiddin this
youre just not goin to that game regardless a wwhether or not your mun says you are
fuck them an anywway theyre probably just some lousy human wwho ignores all the wwrong people

[corpsepartier]

[Aradia stares blankly while he waits. Wow really Eridan?

By the time he speaks to her, her expression has shifted from blank to irritated. She folds her arms and says:]

and how are you going to stop me from going anywhere?
i think the whole time powers thing means i can outmaneuver anything youd try to do
and im sure this new ocean isnt ruled by sea dwellers either

[Huh! That's a new thought: an ocean not ruled by sea trolls. She softens for a moment, before remembering the sea troll in front of her.]

itll be a much better ocean than your ocean
in fact i want to go

[caligulas_aquarium]

oh for fucks sake are you serious
im here tryin a make you not go an ivve actually done the exact opposite

[corpsepartier]

hold on my mun wants to tell you something after all

[A pause, as if she's listening to a voice only she can hear.]

my mun suggests you

[The next part she says in an exaggerated "Eridan voice."]

"deal wwith it"

[cheese_for_everyone]

Well silly is different, silly is fun!

Though I have to admit I've never been a mermaid though.

[corpsepartier]

its been quite a journey but im a little worn out of all these bodies
i do like fun though
would you approve of a corpse party?
my friends didnt really like the idea

[cheese_for_everyone]

A corpse party? I'm not sure of the premise but I would certainly try!

[corpsepartier]

from what ive been told humans call it a funeral
to celebrate it you need a corpse and some way to dispose of it
so we cant do it right now but in the future it sounds like it would be just lovely
dont you think?

[cheese_for_everyone]

Oh yes it sounds like a lovely affair!

Just be careful who you invite. People can get so gloomy at those things

[corpsepartier]

oh yes i know
my friends thought it was insensitive to bring it up when my friend solluxs body turned up
but i was just trying to follow human custom!
are all of the customs this confusing?

[cheese_for_everyone]

More often than not humans are confusing creatures. I think the problem lays in the fact that people do it to remember the person and console each other while the mourning is fresh in their minds.

[corpsepartier]

ohh that does make sense
even though he was only half dead so no one was really sad
his alive half was right there with us in fact
but still
what customs are supposed to be fun then?

[cheese_for_everyone]

Birthday parties are always fun. I think Alternian trolls call that a wriggling day?

[corpsepartier]

we do but its not exactly a holiday on alternia
most alternian holidays are spent alone
have you met trolls before me?

[cheese_for_everyone]

Yes I have though they were for the most part not as talkative.

Well there are three key holidays I can thing of. A birthday, The Winter Solstice and the Spring Solstice.

[corpsepartier]

that could describe a lot of trolls
even i used to be much less talkative
fortunately that time is over! i prefer being talkative if it means i can learn more
like how do humans celebrate their solstices?

[cheese_for_everyone]

Hm the Spring solstice depends. It is a celebration of fertility traditionally so you can make your own assumptions about that.

The winter Solstice is often spent with friends and relatives. Exchanging gifts. Oh and both solstices have good feasts!

[corpsepartier]

winter solstice sounds a little like 12th perigrees eve
something else is on my mind though
if youve met trolls before me does that mean you can travel time and space too?

[cheese_for_everyone]

I know I can travel space but time I have never bothered to try.

But no that isn't how I met them. I met them here like I met you.

[corpsepartier]

interesting!
who are you then?
how did you acquire your powers
or did you always have them?

[cheese_for_everyone]

I'm Sheogorath. Daedric Prince of Madness.

[He would give a little bow.]

Well that depends on how you think of it. There has been a Sheogorath as long as humans have been around but is he me or am I him just because I became him?
