HAHA APPLIED TO ataraxion we'll see how it goes

[... 'Getaway'. It bears repeating.

...

I hope you're rejected. Or your damn computer catches fire.

I don't need monsters or danger or survival in space. This isn't some cub scout badge thing.

[It's okay Alex, you're totally capable. I BELIEVE IN YOU. Break a leg, man. Or uh. Drill a leg, I dunno'.]

It's not gonna happen. Neither the computer fire or getting rejected.

Sorry, pal, but you're screwed.

[unsoldiered]

Worth a shot to hope for, I guess. [Dammit man.] I guess catching a break was just a little much to ask for.

[sixthanimorph]

Be careful what you wish for. No matter how bad it was before, it's gonna be worse in space. There's evil Wild Things and giant killer centipedes and brain-stealing slugs. And that's the things I know about.

[See this, new guy? This is a trollface.]

But hey, you look like a tough guy, you can take it. Right?

[unsoldiered]

Maybe. I guess we'll see, now that it's official.

[He's not in any mood to be tough. He just wants a damn break, man. :T]

[sixthanimorph]

Here's some free advice. Don't stick your head in anything that looks like water and isn't.

... Oh, who am I kidding, it won't help, you'll be a Controller in a week.

[Better you and not him, pal.]

[and_another_war]

You're... I mean, I'm... um. Well, that's... interesting.

[unsoldiered]

[Oh. Uh.]

... Yeah.

[No need to panic, Alex. Mun pointed out how this could happen. you haven't lost your mind again...]

That's pretty accurate, I'd say.

... Hi?

[and_another_war]

Hi. So, you're, uh... going to space?

[unsoldiered]

Guess so. And there's not much getting out of it either, considering the odds against me.

[Us. However that works.]

[and_another_war]

Well, um, I'm... also in space. In a different place, though.

Well, now you have me interested in that game :)

Monsters- in space?

Check it out, it's p. interesting sounding :|b

[unsoldiered]

Monsters in space. From what I've heard, anyway.

And there's no neighboring town you can run to. [A scoff, as he runs a hand over his face, speaking more to himself than anything.] Not this time, anyway.

And your mun sent you there? Why? I guess, I should be asking mine the same thing though, especially since she's looking into it.
