That is an awful username. You really think you have time for a fourth? Well...okay, just don't pull the crap you usually pull, and gank me from a minute before I died or something.

[tether]

It's not too awful.

[glassesnoglasses]

What isn't? After I died? I suppose you'd think so...ah, right. The username. I guess it could be worse.

[tether]

Yes, the username. I'm not — nobody is happy. Obviously.

[glassesnoglasses]

She better be. Eventually. I think I'm counting on you for that.

[tether]

I'll do what I can. [That was verging on robotic, but discussing this with him is kind of a mess. Awkward, and guilt-inducing, though he chooses not to examine the latter right now.]

If you do go somewhere, I'm sure she'll be there or show up.

[glassesnoglasses]

You think so? That'd be something, wouldn't it? Fringe Division, settling the spacey old west.

[tether]

Sounds exactly up your guys' alley.

[glassesnoglasses]

Might just be. What about you? Apparently 'doubles' are okay.

[placeintheworld]

It could be worse, either something so incredibly literal or something funny? Something along the lines of a joke.

[glassesnoglasses]

Or it could be something that makes absolutely no sense, I suppose.

[placeintheworld]

That a smart remark directed at me?

Nah, they like things like this having meaning.

[glassesnoglasses]

Nope, at her. The one she had previously was "altiman".

[placeintheworld]

...That have some kind of meaning?

[glassesnoglasses]

If it did, she's forgotten.

[placeintheworld]

...Yeah. [Lindsey snorts] They like to do that.

In any case, I wouldn't worry about it.

[glassesnoglasses]

Loads better things to worry about.

[placeintheworld]

So where are you going? I mean specifically if we want to talk about "things that you should be worried about."

[glassesnoglasses]

In theory, this New Dodge place.

[placeintheworld]

...Sorry I missed that. I was thinking of Dodge City. New Dodge?

[Hell of a name for a town.] ...You're a gunslinger there cowboy?

[glassesnoglasses]

I'm not anything there yet. Probably not that, though.

[placeintheworld]

So what do you do?

[glassesnoglasses]

Team Leader, Fringe Division.

[placeintheworld]

...So you went from being a gunslinger to being in a boy band.

[glassesnoglasses]

It's not a band.

[placeintheworld]

It sounds like a band. Or a group of power-puff investigator type kids.

[glassesnoglasses]

I have no clue what a power-puff investigator kid is.

When time and space rip apart, we make sure that what comes out isn't going to kill people.

[placeintheworld]

....Really.

That happen...often in this New Dodge? Or where you're from?

[glassesnoglasses]

I'm not in New Dodge yet. Where I'm from...yeah, pretty often.
