This is a bad idea and you know it.

[Come on, Frederick isn't that bad.]

I don't mean Doctor Chilton. I'm talking about your ability to commit to something for any length of time. It wouldn't be fair to me, or the others already there to have me turn up only to vanish again after a few months.

[Don't you want super powers? It'll be awesome!]

You and I have quite different opinions of what constitutes "awesome".

From what I've seen, Chilton is exactly that bad. And the mun says it winds up getting him killed.

[slightlyoffchilt]

Oh.

You just can't keep from talking about me, can you?

[guestlectures]

My writer seems quite taken with you, for some reason.

[slightlyoffchilt]

It's because she has good taste.

[guestlectures]

I couldn't comment on that.

[slightlyoffchilt]

Lest you say something tasteless?

[guestlectures]

It's not my comment that would be considered tasteless.

[enabeled]

I don't think you can always know something's a bad idea... or not until after you try it. Shouldn't be afraid of a little commitment, Dr. Bloom -- I'm the one that has some trouble in that area.

[guestlectures]

Having a little caution when making decisions hasn't harmed me yet, Dr. Gideon.

[enabeled]

Well, far be it from me... to tell you what to do. Too much of a role-reversal there, I understand perfectly.

Still. Is there harm that you need worry about?

[guestlectures]

People who receive a lot of power without being also given direction in how to use it often end up hurting a lot of people. A city where people are brought it at their writer's discretion doesn't seem the safest way to give away super human abilities.

[enabeled]

It's a dangerous world, Dr. Bloom. I'm sure you of all people can figure out a way to defend yourself.

If everyone has them there's at least some common ground.

[guestlectures]

My writer and I are currently arguing over exactly what would be the best way to defend myself, in the form of these super human abilities we're supposed to receive.

From what I've heart, not all abilities are given equally.

[buttpatting]

[Weeh weeh.]

Look at the other options presented, Alana. Your writer could have chosen much more, shall we say, shocking places. Take a look for yourself, and you'll find you agree.

[Read: You could always be getting shipped off to a sex game, try to be reasonable. Gosh.]

[guestlectures]

It's not the location I object to, Hannibal. [She's seen the memes. She doesn't need to see the games.]

My writer has obligations which aren't being met, and sending me anywhere isn't going to help that.

[buttpatting]

Ah.

You are worried about time constraints making it difficult to sustain you in a commitment such as a game, is that your meaning?

[guestlectures]

Yes. I- It wouldn't be fair to Will or you, I think. [Mostly Will. Sorry Bro, but she's confident that you're stable enough to survive friends arriving and then leaving.]

[buttpatting]

Alana.

[This is juicy stuff, but also very serious. Super serious!!!]

Are you worried about upsetting me, or are you worried about upsetting Will?

[poor precious will graham, that's who she must be worried about]

[guestlectures]

[Damn your perceptiveness.]

I don't want to be the cause of any more issues for him. [Because while she would like to be there as a friend, she's be very angry with herself if she made things worse. The last she remembers of him he was laid up in a hospital after shooting Gideon.]

[giraffic]

I don't know, getting superpowers sounds pretty sweet.

[guestlectures]

You think so? I'm still not convinced, myself.

[giraffic]

Totally. That and a big city that isn't falling apart and filled with Infected and Hunters? Sounds pretty good to me.

[guestlectures]

... From what my writer's just told me about the place you're from I agree. Definite improvement.

[zombies what.]

...you know i totally didn't realize how many days old the post is. sorry to pop up so late! orz

[giraffic]

It's not totally bad. I mean, it's all I've ever known. [ Mind-controlling fungus. Good times! ] But...I wouldn't mind seeing what it's like in places that haven't been hit. Or before they were.

ffff don't worry about it!

[guestlectures]

[concerned psychiatrist mode: activated]

I hope you get that opportunity one day.
