Hey, mun!

I heard that you're gonna send me to this Cittàgazze place. Sounds like the start of a new adventure! What's this, uhh, "dæmon" thing, anyway? "One's soul in animal form"? I'm not sure if I get that, but it sounds pretty nifty. What're you gonna get me? I hope it's something cool!

Either way, start writing that "application" thing already! I know it's boring and stuff, but I don't want to be trapped in this "headspace" of yours for the rest of my life. The other guys here are pretty okay, but it gets boring if I can't go anywhere, you know? Speaking of those guys, one of them told me that this Cittàgazze place let you go to other worlds. One more reason to start writing that application!

C'mon, mun, I know you can tell that I'm super-excited!

You seem to be very eager to exchange one prison for another.

[klutzer]

Ehh, prison? I don't think Cittàgazze or mun's headspace are prisons! Sure, I guess the latter can be boring, but it's not a prison. I can go anywhere if I want, I just need to tell my mun about it!

And, like I said, this Cittàgazze place lets you go places. How can you call that a prison? [ He just don't get it. ]

[yesshecan]

Are you completely irrelevant in your own world? [She just raises her chin a little higher, clearly not thinking too much of him.]

I for one would consider every place from which I cannot return home insufferable and against the ideals of freedom and liberty. They should just been blown up until they accept freedom.

[bindsthedead]

We are free to come and go from our own worlds as we wish, though flights out to the windows only happen on Fridays.

[klutzer]

Thanks for clarifying! You're already in that Cittagaze place? I'm Bartz. What's your name?

[klutzer]

Yeah, what she said. I forgot to mention that. [ Gestures towards Sabriel. Ignoring her question because: a) he can't remember his own world, and b) he probably doesn't want to start an argument. ] Would it kill you to lighten up a little, anyway?

[ Dude, why so srs. ]

[whatsupcroc]

The daemons are just part of the awesome stuff you learn about when you're here!

[klutzer]

[ Did someone say "awesome stuff"? His "fun-fun-fun!" senses are tingling! ]

Really? Does that mean there's a lot more fun and adventures to be had? Alright, that's awesome! Sign me up.

[whatsupcroc]

[ Collette laughs! ]

You're signed up once you sign the contract! I mean, okay, so it's a little more than that, but you're part of the Company when you sign the contract, and they're the ones doing all the exploring and adventuring.

So what do you do now?

[klutzer]

There's a company whose job is exploring and adventuring? [ Well, yeah, this baffles him. ] Then I'll definitely sign the contract!

[ ...didn't even ask what's the catch. Jumping into things without thinking is so Bartz-esque. Anyway, at her question, his expression darkens a little. ]

Uhh...fighting, mostly. There's this "divine war" [ quote unquote, complete with the dramatic tone ] between Cosmos, the goddess of harmony, and Chaos, the god of discord, and we were dragged into fighting for them. That sort of thing.

[ Shrugs. ]

[whatsupcroc]

Oh, man, you'll fit right in! Half of everyone there's fighting in some war or fought in one.

[ She grins. ]

Whcih can mean finding some more help if you need it, back home. Just... yeah, you know? Helping each other out.

[klutzer]

Really? [ Not alone in fighting a war? That's a new concept for him. But helping each other out, on the contrary, wasn't a new one. ] And yeah, I know. Helping your friends out is always a good thing, isn't it?

[ Although he'll definitely file Collette's offer into the "considering" folder now, since he's not sure if he wanted to drag strangers-who's-not-yet-friends into his war. But she'll still get a smile! ]

Anyway, what's your name? I'm Bartz.

[sparkstriker]

You too, huh?

agsjsjdsghsbsghsjk lightniiiiiiiiiiiiiiing /reaches for

[klutzer]

Yeah, and I wasn't objecting it a bit. It sounds like a lot of fun, don't you think?

baaaaaaaaaaaaartz klasjflasdkfjhasd i might just change light's timeline to 012 okok

[sparkstriker]

Bartz, I know your idea of fun.

gdhsgfhs maybe i should change his to 012 too...but he only plays a minor role there...

[klutzer]

And there's nothing wrong with that, isn't it? I'd say I know yours, too, but, uhh...

[ What's Lightning's idea of fun? That's what he's asking himself now. ]

hit by kain! ... yeah ouch 8(

[sparkstriker]

But you don't. [Unimpressed faise.]

dammit kain! i haven't played 012 very far, anyway...

[klutzer]

Hey, I just haven't figured it out yet! [ And that's not the same as not knowing, trust him. ]

[guilds]

Anything beats being stuck aimlessly in someone's headspace. It's cramped in there and I can't deny there being a bunch of creeps.

... and other worlds? [ Cue a curious tone in her voice. ] If it's anything like the ones I've been in before, I'm sure it'll be... well, an experience, right?

[klutzer]

There's no creeps in my mun's headspace! And it's not really cramped, there's only like, four of us here. I guess I am lucky. [ Yeah, he's definitely striking a victory pose. Problem, Lucy? ]

No, I'm sure it's not like the ones you've been in before. People said that it lets you go places and go home if you want! How cool is that?

[ What's up with these people and assuming that a new world means you're gonna be trapped in there? Geez, what a bunch of uptight people. ]

couldn't resist

[ladieswhodresslikemen]

And why are you so excited about this, Bartz? Other worlds are pretty old news, for us.

resistance is futile

[klutzer]

Yeah, I know, but there is no end to an adventure, isn't it?

[ladieswhodresslikemen]

I figured as much. You'd never give up adventuring, just like I'm not planning in staying in Castle Tycoon the rest of my life.

[klutzer]

See? You know the answer all along! [ And he just smiled innocently. ] My mun's headspace is no Castle Tycoon, but I'm not planning to stay there for the rest of my life, either. I'm all for exploring new worlds!

so he does remember. I am less excited now.

[ladieswhodresslikemen]

You just be sure to take care of yourself, all right? Not like you won't.
