considering a Sing app (no really for real this time) as a CR AU

[dicey]

So you're really planning on doing it this time, huh? I can think of a few things you're pro8a8ly expecting me to say right now. Let me guess:

1. Good for you! I knew you'd do it eventually, even if you ended up w8ing a while.
2. Aw, you really feel like you could handle a second game with me even if you don't think you could with anyone else? I feel so special and flattered!
3. Meeting another version of me would 8e soooooooo exciting! I'm sure we would 8ecome 8est 8uddies in no time and definitely not try to kill each other in a fit of existential confusion.

I'm right, aren't I? That's the stuff you think I'm going to 8e teling you. To which I'm ACTUALLY going to say........

Do you get me at all???????? Get real! Here are some of my real thoughts:

1. Go fuck yourself.
2. Go fuck yourself.
3. I 8et I can find something 8ig, rusty, and uncomforta8le if you need any help with that.

Oh. I've already given my player tons of tries; you have no idea. I've 8een with her for more than a year! And this game idea has good and 8ad points.

I don't have a si8ling, so that's not a good comparison at all.

[square_cubelaw]

You have something better to do?

I don't have a sibling either, but I bet you know someone who does.

[dicey]

Sure, 8ut I don't know thaaaaaaaat much a8out their rel8ionships.

[square_cubelaw]

It is like talking to a younger, stupider you. Or an older, more annoying you.

[dicey]

Weird. All the ones I know like each other.

[square_cubelaw]

Maybe I just know too many people who are hard to get along with.

That would explain why company picnics usually fall apart...

...and cause property damage.

[dicey]

Either way, I'm glad I don't have any! It sounds weird.

[square_cubelaw]

If it wasn't for the fact that every new A.I. I meet seems to be trying to invent a new way to be insane, I might have wanted a sibling.

I don't want kids either. I have employees. They're worse.

[dicey]

My species doesn't have kids like humans do, so I don't have to worry a8out that! Lucky 8r8k, right?

[square_cubelaw]

I'm not exactly able to reproduce either.

Wait... species? Aren't you just a weird, violent, kid in a strange costume?

[dicey]

No!

Well, actually, I am all of that except for the costume part.

[square_cubelaw]

I think you're pulling my leg.

[dicey]

Nope! May8e I'll let you tug on my horn to see if it comes off.

[square_cubelaw]

You know what, I'm calling your bluff.

[But he's not going to tug hard. Accidentally killing strange, new, and seemingly non-hostile, life might not sit well with Robo.]

[dicey]

Go ahead, try it!

[square_cubelaw]

Fine, but if you cry I'm telling them you head butted me.

[Using too fingers, he gives the horn a firm tug. Short, and just enough to tug fake hornes off of someone's head.]

[dicey]

Oh, please! I don't cry for things as dum8 as that.

[and of course they stay on]

[square_cubelaw]

[Stare.]

So, were you dumb enough to glue those to your head or are you some sort of genetic experiment?

[dicey]

I'm a troll. I'm another species! What are you, anyway?

[square_cubelaw]

Okay then, D&D either got a whole lot stranger after 3.5 or you're from another dimension entirely. I can't be lucky enough that you have coordinates to where you came from, can I?

And I'm a Atomatic Inelligent Robot. You can call me Atomic Robo.

[dicey]

No coordin8s.

We don't have things like you where I come from either, you know!

[square_cubelaw]

That's because not every dimension has geniuses like the one who invented me.

And we only had one.

[dicey]

Who was he?

[square_cubelaw]

Nikola Tesla, my creator and father.

[dicey]

........ Seriously? I know that guy! Or knew him, anyway.
