Is it really too much to ask of ya to have one good thing happen this month? Just one, kid, I ain't picky. And no. Gettin' in a fight with a god is not a good thing, and I don't give a crap if you think it's funny!

You're gonna drive me to drink.

He punched Amaterasu (origin of all that is good and mother to us all) in the face. It was awesome.

[milliondollarpipes]

Yeah, she created Japan or the sun or somethin' like that. [You think Harvey knows a damn thing about Japanese mythology? Because lol no.]

Normally we get along a little better. You ever meet a white wolf who likes to paint? Do yourself a favor and stay on her good side.

Hey! I liked Okami. *hugs Ammy*

[gunslingerguy]

Why did you two fight? You don't seem particularly aggressive and most artists I knew back home were pretty peaceful if you left them alone while they were working.

Also, what's Japan? [Hi, different universe, remember?]

Okami is my favorite video game ever of all time. But punching a creator god is still epic.

[milliondollarpipes]

You don't have... [Alternate universes are weird.] ...it's a country.

The game's havin' some kinda mirror universe event. Someone over here decided it'd be real great if I was one of the guys who got turned into assholes. [Reproachful glare back at the mun.]

But mean. D:

[gunslingerguy]

I know. Your world is weird to me, too. It's like you guys broke Pangea somehow. Hard to keep track of where and what things are when you've got continents spaced out like that.

Are mirror universes a common thing? I'm not sure how mine would work. [Would he be part of the regime against free speech and freedom? Would there be a regime to be a part of? His head hurts contemplating it.]

Well we got to see some wolf kung-fu after. So that was cool.

[milliondollarpipes]

Pangaea? You're all still livin' on one big continent?

I dunno, it's only happened once so far. Maybe twice, Iron said she went someplace once with an evil Linkara and a hero Insano. You'd probably be some kinda evil dictator or somethin' like that. [Hey, in a roundabout way he just kinda admitted he thinks you're a decent guy now!]

Not going to argue that.

[gunslingerguy]

Well, yes. I mean, there are islands, of course, but as far as we can tell it's always been one continent. Multiple nations like anywhere else, o' course.

...

[Jaeris just freezes, and looks absolutely horrified. His eyes go wide, but after a moment he swallows, runs a hand through his hair and tries to play it off, but his voice shakes slightly.]

...right. Well. I. I guess I'll just have to deal with that if it comes along.

He even survived it. xD

[milliondollarpipes]

[Yeah well, welcome to his life.]

Hell, it probably won't. They probably ain't really all that common.

The more I headcanon Jaeris' life, the stupider it becomes.

[gunslingerguy]

I hope so. Just thinking about it would make me feel sick if I'd had anything to eat today besides algae flakes.

I'm just sorta sitting here watching it spiral into madness, it's hysterical.

[milliondollarpipes]

[...just give him a second.]

Algae flakes.

I pray that Lewis never reads this.

[gunslingerguy]

Er, yeah? I've been at this for years and your world was too toxic for me to go grab food from it, so I'm living off what's left in the cabinets. Algae flakes, old rice cakes, honey... things that don't spoil. The main refrigeration unit quit working and it's not something I've had to repair.

That would be the worst possible thing xD

[milliondollarpipes]

...I'm tellin' the kid to send you up a damn pizza.

I love Harvey's face in that icon.

[gunslingerguy]

[Jaeris lights up like it's Christmas.]

You'd do that for me?

I like the single icon of Jaeris smiling. Even if I don't remember him doing it ever. xD

[milliondollarpipes]

Sure. Why not?

[He bites off the impulse to add "It's just a pizza." To him, it really isn't, huh.]

It's from the bloopers Linkara released a little while ago.

[gunslingerguy]

Thanks! [Jaeris is thrilled.]

Ahhh, makes sense

[milliondollarpipes]

No problem.

[Geez. Harvey's not exactly ready to start havin' you over for dinner parties, but don't be surprised if food starts showin' up at your place every now and then, Jaeris. He doesn't like seein' people go hungry, even if they're only tentative allies as of yet.]

He's so adorkable. It's hilariously OOC looking.

[gunslingerguy]

Maybe this whole alliance thing won't be so bad. I'm sorry we got off on the wrong foot.

[The way to his heart, or at least past the defensiveness and paranoia, is food.]

It's so cute!

[milliondollarpipes]

[Jesus. If their universe hadn't been poison to him, could they have bypassed this whole thing by just makin' the man a goddamn sandwich?]

Yeah. Trust me, I am too. [Hell, even that hologram thing was kinda his fault. Harv's still not sure how much he really buys into the whole "Linkara turning evil" thing, even if he did get pretty pissed at him for a while there.]

The badassery is tainted by the huggableness. Yes, that's a word now.

[gunslingerguy]

[No. Maybe. Okay, maybe it would be more like a dinner business meeting, but an offer of Pizza Hut and negotiations might've worked. The world will never know.]

It won't be like that in the future. I'm still half waiting for this to blow up in my face, but... I've learned my lesson. Promise.

Was it not previously?

[milliondollarpipes]

[If it was stuffed crust? Yeah. That totally would've worked.]

Fine. Promise I won't shoot ya unless you do somethin' to deserve it. [Again.]

[...aaaaaand you know what, Harvey's no stranger to paranoia himself. He can already see one way this could all go south fast.] ...you probably oughta know, the kid's got a few evil look-alikes runnin' around. Neither of 'em should be an issue right now, but...yeah, the way things go one of 'em's gonna pop back up sooner or later.

In my little world it was.

[gunslingerguy]

I've already seen the robot one. The voice is a pretty good giveaway. And my magic, while not extensive, should be able to tell a robot from a human any day of the week. But there's more?

[milliondollarpipes]

He doesn't always do the voice thing - but yeah, as long as you got your magic and your AI watchin' the ship, you oughta be fine.

We had some problems with a hologram he was experimentin' with a little while ago. Acted pretty much just like him...'til it started tryin' to rip everyone's hearts out. You can probably pick up on that one too, but...better to keep an eye out.

[gunslingerguy]

Magic doesn't even register holograms as anything but raw energy. Don't worry, identity screw ups aren't likely to happen unless I'm somehow without magic or tech. I assume this is the hologram you mentioned earlier when you were talking with me?

[milliondollarpipes]

Yeah. The emitter vanished about the same time you were hangin' around. We all figured you took it. [Okay, well, he did.]

[gunslingerguy]

...why would I steal an emitter when I don't own any holograms? And who was cocky enough to leave a hologram on unattended with an emitter on? That's just begging for disaster.

[milliondollarpipes]

Yeah, that's what I said.

[Wow, he kinda doesn't like agreeing with you that Linkara did something stupid. Though. That was really damn stupid.]
