Practice threading for Distant Skies!

[jurisimpudent]

I'll not waste my breath pointing out the utter idiocy of your plans to join this game; such words are, to my way of thinking, trite by virtue of their inevitability. Yes, you - like nearly everyone else - have comparatively limited time. And, of course, you wish to play the martyr over this, agonize and complain, so that others will know just how busy and important you are. I'm not going to enable such self-indulgent behavior.

Rather, I'll merely tell you this: if you think you're so utterly and terribly busy, if you think that you've so little time, then don't waste it further with whining. Instead, make it count. I've no use for someone who will dither rather than be a productive member of society.

It's not a bib.

[jurisimpudent]

Nor is the cravat, you common fool.

[allucinator]

I think you got suckered, honestly. But go on, tell me, what's gonna happen to me?

[jurisimpudent]

You'll be recognize as obstructionist and a fool.

[allucinator]

[He gasps.]

Oh, god, not that!

[jurisimpudent]

Hmph. It's clear you had no information to begin with.

[allucinator]

You's just mad cuz I ain't rollin' over and doin' what you say.

[jurisimpudent]

I'm angry because you wasted my time by being stupid.

[allucinator]

I didn't, actually, but if that's what you want to believe, go right ahead. Why are you dressed like that, anyway, you never answered. Are you inna band?

[jurisimpudent]

Hmph. I'm going to be a prosecutor.

[allucinator]

A what?

[jurisimpudent]

Sorry - too many syllables? I can hear how much you struggle with English.

[allucinator]

[A flush appears on his cheeks. He scowls.]

Do you really get off on bein' a smug asshole? Cuz that's pretty pathetic.

[jurisimpudent]

[Oh he sees it and pounces on it.]

Would you call it more or less pathetic than the education you, er, "received"?

[allucinator]

[The flush grows worse. Jack crosses his arms over his chest.]

And I suppose you got a fancy college degree?

[jurisimpudent]

Not yet. Remarkable, isn't it? That I'm leagues ahead of you without having even received an advanced degree?

[allucinator]

Not really, seein' as you still dress like a girl and act like a prick. At least I have a friends.

[jurisimpudent]

[That touches a nerve.]

Remarkable, that you were able to find people stupider than you!

[allucinator]

[His grin turns a bit vicious.]

And you haven't found any stupid enough to hang around you. Funny, how that works.

[jurisimpudent]

You're assuming quite a lot.

[allucinator]

And you aren't?

[jurisimpudent]

You've already proven yourself stupid. I'm not assuming anything else other than that.

[allucinator]

You're assumin' I'm uneducated, which I ain't, and stupid, which I sure as hell ain't.

[jurisimpudent]

Evidence to the contrary, young man. You prove it yourself every time you open your mouth.

[allucinator]

First off, dumbass, I'm older than you, so cool it with the young man or I'll soak ya. Second off, I don't, seein' as I know a lot more than you do about where we are.
