Recently dropped; someone's unamused.

And what are you expecting me to say right now? "You tried"? Don't get me wrong, that was a pretty little failure with the green-haired kid, too; I suppose it's nice to know that I'm not the only one who's getting to deal with your amazing powers of decision-making.

Listen, the point is that either you're going to get out there and find something else, or you're not; I'm just getting tired of this will-I-won't-I thing you've been throwing around for weeks now. It doesn't matter either way - in the end, I'm nothing but a guy with all the time in the world. If you don't have enough, I can't really say that I care.

Passive-aggressive? Maybe. I'd think you'd prefer that over flat-out aggression, though - but if not, then you go right on ahead and let me out for a while. It'd be the most fun I've had all month.

...There certainly seems to be quite a lot of that where you're from.

I look forward to seeing just what you do with him. I'm sure all that leather will be amusing.

[alchemicals]

[Well, if that first part was a stealth insult it was perhaps a bit too stealthy, as it's just going to go over his head; as it stands, the second...huh.]

Depends on what it's been tanned with, but adding in all the vinyl everywhere? Yeah, I'd say it will.

[determinator]

[...He really can't say he's surprised....]

Is there any particular reason why you hate this one more than the others?

[Has he been picking on you, bb]

[alchemicals]

I never said I hated him any more than the others; he's just doing that...new-person thing where he won't shut up. Don't worry, the others haven't been kicked off their pretty little thrones when it comes to being the most obnoxious things here.

[determinator]

That's implying that you're not one of them, Kimbley~

[OH COME ON HOW COULD HE RESIST, YOU SET YOURSELF UP FOR THAT]

Regardless, the novelty will wear off eventually. Then you can reclaim your place as the favorite.

[...Ar...cher... that only works on you for some unknown reason. >:|]

[alchemicals]

Hey...!

[mrrrrrrrrrrrhgfdjrkdfsdgfrgh]

And really, if I were the favorite I'd be in that other place with you right now, don't you think?

[determinator]

[...Right. That seems to subdue him a bit at least.]

Yes, I suppose you would. It is a shame. Have you attempted to convince your mundane to app in anyway?

[...That's not possible and you know it, Archer.]

[alchemicals]

Please. You say that almost as though it'd work.

[determinator]

Well, she could just create a "sock account" and app in there.

[OH MY GOD GET OUT ARCHER ...can you tell he misses you, Kimbley?]

[alchemicals]

...and you say that like I haven't already suggested it.

She's no fun whatsoever, trust me.

[determinator]

Well, I suppose we'll have to work on changing that, then. Once we find a game that's suitable to our tastes, it will only be a matter of time before she's reminded just how fascinating you are.

[alchemicals]

Oh, don't worry - I'll make it so that last part happens for sure. You know I don't give up that easily.

[In other words: unf my ego stroke it harder]

Are you still in one piece in that Johto place, at least?

[determinator]

It would make you a rather useless subordinate if you did, now wouldn't it?

[Oh of course~ There can never be enough ego-stroking!]

...Yes, of course I am. Why would you ever think otherwise?

[alchemicals]

Because I also get to deal with her actual favorite in here, and he's been a bit more...outspoken than usual about you lately.

[determinator]

...Well, what has he been saying?

[Oh come on, you can't say that and not tell him what's been said! Deets, Kimbley!]

[alchemicals]

Most of what's been said isn't coherent, and what's coherent has been pretty insulting, why?

[determinator]

[Oh. Well that's...]

I suppose he's still mad at me.

[THAT MIGHT BE A BIT OF AN UNDERSTATEMENT THERE...]

[alchemicals]

Yeah, it sounds like it.

I'm guessing I'm not allowed to touch him?

[determinator]

As much as I would love that... no. That will only make things worse.

[alchemicals]

You think so?

[No, really. Go on. Details.]

[determinator]

Yes, of course. He'll just return later and be even more irritated. That won't help me any.

[Sorry, were you looking for specific deets? You'll have to ask~]

[alchemicals]

Well, I don't see why that matters. You don't need him.

[determinator]

I don't have you in Johto. He's the best I'm going to get.

[alchemicals]

And? If he's not useful, you don't need him, right? This isn't being useful, last I looked.

Or are you holding him to a different sort of standard than you held me?

[determinator]

No, of course not. The situation is entirely different, Kimbley. Besides... you know I would have kept you around regardless.
