I can't believe you're actually going through with this.

You'd have better luck with a brick. [ cynicism is go! ] I tried your way. You can't appeal to them.

[oyster]

How long have you been trying?

[heterophobe]

Something like two years and some odd months now, give or take. And I periodically break up the monotony by saying, "no, you can't. you mustn't." All to no avail. You want my advice? Save yourself the trouble.

[oyster]

Over two years? [ Good god, she really doesn't have any hope, does she? ] What do you suggest I do, then? Just shut up and let her do whatever she wants?

[heterophobe]

I'm not telling you to be a some helpless rag doll.

Choosing where is out of the question but what you do when you get there? That's your call.

[oyster]

Right. [ It's the going she has the problem with, though. ] How many places has yours sent you since you... were created or whatever they call it?

[heterophobe]

Three, but who's counting? [ he shrugs. don't get him wrong, he stirs up a shit storm every change he gets. there just isn't any anchoring these plans. ] An island where the inhabitants were forced to copulate, a zombie apocalypse, and now space.

[ and because he's not a total douchebag: ] Is this your first?

[oyster]

[ Her eyebrows lift at that. Three places... she can't even imagine.

She nods to his question. ] Yeah, it is. She's considered a few places - including the first place you mentioned - but she never followed through with it. I was even starting to think that she'd never follow through with this Tranquility place, either, but apparently I was wrong.
