He's just complaining

[historycodebook]

Just to let you know, I still hate you for putting me in this game. I don't think I mentioned it when you first apped me, but it's worth saying again now.

No, I'm not going to be glad that you didn't decide to kill me. I'm still in this game.

Hey, look on the bright side! I'm there.

[historycodebook]

Are you talking about the bright side of only talking once or something else?

[he's kidding]

[jackbotsattack]

Wow, that hurts. Right here. [Pats his chest.]

[Jack, your heart is on the left side.]

[historycodebook]

Why would it hurt there?

[jackbotsattack]

What?

[Looks down.

Blinks.

Switches sides.]

Here.

[historycodebook]

Good thing you build robots instead of surgery.

[jackbotsattack]

Medicine stuff is boooriiing. As long as I know first aid I'm good.

[historycodebook]

This time I have my healing spells, so first aid's a little pointless for me.

[Getting more used to being an actual spellcaster now, but it's still weird.]

[jackbotsattack]

Oh yeah, because you're a Wavemaster now and not a technopath. I keep forgetting.

[historycodebook]

I still have my book at least... though I'm going to have to spend some time airing it out.

... And trying to restore the library most likely.

[jackbotsattack]

You let it get wet? Lame.

Also lame. You should be using those fancy powers of yours to kill all the monsters!

[historycodebook]

I tried to wrap it up to protect it, but I still need to use it to cast spells. I don't have a staff like normal Wavemasters.

And I'm not a high level Wavemaster. Even if I was, I doubt it'd be that easy...

[jackbotsattack]

Could you get one from the merchants?

That's why you have to level-grind! Duh.

[historycodebook]

I guess I could check it out, but can you even level grind here?

[He's been zapping bats in the tunnels. Does that count?]

[jackbotsattack]

I don't know! Just think of getting stronger as level-grinding. You know, beating a lot of things equals being able to beat more things.

[Well it always made my Pikachu level up so I guess so.]

[historycodebook]

How about I think of that when I'm not at risk of having a whole train of hungry monsters after me?

[jackbotsattack]

Because by then you'll be back in your world and it won't matter anymore.

[historycodebook]

I meant when all the monsters aren't inside the complex in huge masses.

[jackbotsattack]

But then you'll have to go find them yourself! It's convenient right now.

[historycodebook]

Convenient and suicidal are two completely different things.

[jackbotsattack]

Alright, alright. Just a suggestion.

[historycodebook]

But if you'd like to form a party later, then we can wander the beach. You've built some kind of death ray, haven't you?

[Reki, why are you encouraging that?]

[jackbotsattack]

Freeze ray actually. Sollux wouldn't let me build a death ray...

Besides, who said anything about me fighting those things?

[historycodebook]

Then why do I have to fight them?

[jackbotsattack]

Because you're the one who's a spell-casting game character. I'm just a kid!
