i think i lost track of that
what was the question
oh right

just erase everything after my question about anomalies and were good

[splinten]

I'm not sure what to do about Nancy. I'm suspicious of her based on what you said.
URSULA just said she picked up anomalies with her drones in different areas and would like us to check them out.

[parodeity]

we can always ask naoko for an opinion
id say ask ursula but
i feel like shed tell us ishmael was a swell fellow even were he a homicidal maniac and she knew this to be true
shes not well known for having negative opinions about anyone or anything
naokos more blunt tho

also
idk
im not sure i should leave the tower for too long
so it depends on the area

[splinten]

Setting aside Naoko's brutal honesty,
Your comment about the tower is precisely vague in a suspicious way.

[parodeity]

shit hang on

[ .................

there is no second part to this message. just "shit hang on" and then nothing. that's not vague in a suspicious way. ]

[splinten]

[dirk is patient, until it is way too long]

Dave.
Do I need to come home?

[parodeity]

[ right he was talking to dirk. ]

no im fine
we were talking about naoko
i like her
also we should

hang on

[ this is still not suspicious, thanks ]

[splinten]

I'm coming home.

[parodeity]

[ there is no response because dave is Distracted. it is the world's most benign distraction though he is distracted by a kitten and dirk said he could take one home so this is allowed, shut up.

his communicator was abandoned in the kitchen. dave himself has relocated to the television room where he is basically just lying on the ground with a black kitten fucking around as squarewave and wiz rap in the background probably. or maybe those two are rapping in the kitchen or at the magister.

honestly who knows this tower is a mess. ]

[splinten]

[Dirk comes home, Squarewave and Wiz are happy wherever they are, and Dave has a kitten.]

Oh, thank fuck. I thought you were gettin' into some kind of trouble.

[parodeity]

[ congratulations dave fucking jolts in place he was thoroughly Distracted. but it's not a bad jolt so much as "shit someone snuck in" but the someone is obviously dirk. no one else is allowed, so ? ]

What, why? [ give it a second. ] Oh right Naoko. Uh, I got distracted?

[ the cat wanted to play he's weak. ]

[splinten]

You got a cat. Is this the trial run, or is this cat a permanent addition to our Tower of the Bizarre?

[parodeity]

I already did the trial runs when you weren't around.

[ because

that was clearly a thing he had to be top fucking secret about, why this dave ]

Unless you don't get along with him??

[ get along with the cat, dirk. ]

[splinten]

[............]

You did them when I wasn't around? When?

[parodeity]

Whenever you left the tower since we talked about it.

[ this seems needlessly complex and stupid to do in secret ]

I extended the time as needed.

[ oh cool it can get more needlessly complex and stupid ]

[splinten]

Why.

[parodeity]

...In case it didn't work out??

[ look ]

And it gave me somethin' to do while you weren't around.

[ which was. cat auditions, apparently. ]

Do you like him. [ dirk has yet to express an opinion on the kitten who is...basically just attacking dave's right foot but whatever. ]

[splinten]

Should have seen that answer comin'.

[That's so Dave. Sigh.]

He's unbearably adorable. What's his name?

[parodeity]

Macklemeow.

[ he moves his foot to gently topple the kitten a little so there is some give to the pitched fight said kitten was already losing. his foot gets bitten but that is basically nothing on sword cuts and the like so dave doesn't remotely react.

WHY DO PEOPLE KEEP LETTING DAVE NAME THINGS ]

[splinten]

That's hilarious.

[Dirk's sense of humour is Dave's so this tragedy just has to be allowed to happen.]

Do we have food for him? Toys, litter box on every floor. Whatever else cats need.

[parodeity]

[ dirk you're useless ]

Food and toys. One litter box. I can get more? If Rose cat sits a mission would be ok though.

[



this sounds stupid, but dave also didn't really go on missions when the magister was really young unless rose or someone else was stationed with the magister? so? ]

[splinten]

Your call. It's important to look after your new cat.

[parodeity]

She would enjoy psychoanalyzin' him. I'm not jokin', btw, she used to do sessions for Jaspers.

[ would he really put a kitten through this? yes. ]

What areas were pingin' anomalies, or is it just "fuck around and see what's up"?

[splinten]

That doesn't surprise me.

[Rose is a good kid.]

There were a few, but she mentioned the Aurora to me specifically.

[parodeity]

Better than the Narcissus. [ fuck that ship tbqh. ]

Yeah, okay. I'm in. Tomorrow or later today or what?

[ he stops macklemeow attacking his foot so he can scoop the kitten up and into his lap. his fingers get attacked, too. ]
