Try not to think about anythin' else we don't wanna see?

[ that's like saying don't think about pink elephants ]

[alienates]

Ughhhhh that's how we landed in creepy honksville, population: an alien serial killer.

[ maybe they can... try to teleport themselves out again... ]

[parodeity]

Ok, but better that guy than multiple other people we shouldn't think about??

[alienates]

[ as much as he hates to admit it, but, true. ]

Whhhhy the fuck does so many people want to kill us at any given moment? How did we reach a point where a murderous clown isn't the worst that could be chasing us?

[parodeity]

We're very stabbable, I guess. Has to be somethin' in the angle of the face.

[alienates]

If light hits us just right, it's like an angelic halo forms around our form, calling the attention to serial killers in a ten mile radius.

[parodeity]

I know it's a joke, but it's basically the truth.

[alienates]

Do you think we could get that trademarked?

[ ... ]

Copyrighted?

[ what's the correct term... ]

[parodeity]

Copyright. Trademark is like, logos and bullshit?

[ DOES THIS MATTER, KIDS. ]

[alienates]

[ it definitely matters. the dumbest shit is always the most important. ]

So if we make a logo to go with it, we can trademark and copyright it. Interesting.

[parodeity]

What the fuck logo would that even have, our faces surrounded by a thousand knives?

[alienates]

Huh.

[ he pauses to consider this. it is... definitely not the time for this, all things considering, but fuck it, this is now important. ]

Maybe we can think really hard about having paper and crayons and they'll appear.

[parodeity]

What, you want to like have a logo-drawing contest???

[alienates]

Yes, obviously?

[ a honk sounds off in the distance ]

Okay so now is probably not the best time.

[parodeity]

Can't you try to do somethin' about him???

[alienates]

[ hm. ]

Maybe. If we're really... moirails or whatever.

[ since that was the whole point of moirails, wasn't it?? he thinks. he understands the quadrant, but that doesn't make the whole concept any less strange. ]

[parodeity]

Do you remember enough of how that works to try?

[alienates]

I understand the entire explanation of it, but I don't remember actually attempting it myself?

[ kind of like when you know the theory behind a math problem but haven't actually tried to solve it yourself. ]

It's better than nothing.

[parodeity]

Okay, but if you fail at it you might get stabbed a little?

[ and dream or no that would suck ]

[alienates]

Hm, you raise a good point. Getting stabbed is pretty low on my list of favorite pastimes, just right above booking my own doctor appointments.

[ hmmm ]

Okay so I guess in that case we should have a contingency plan that'll probably consist of, I don't know, running or hoping we can trigger another location change? Only this time to less of a shithole?

[parodeity]

Does either of us even have any memories like that?

[alienates]

[ he opens his mouth to answer

then shuts it. ]

God we are so fucked.

[parodeity]

Like even my nice memories take place in places where also bullshit happened, mostly.

[alienates]

There's probably some nice sounding proverb about situations like this but mostly all I can say is uggghhhhhhhh.

[ it's true though. even if they leave this place and go somewhere else, they'd probably just end up where someone else is trying to kill them or something. that's the problem with games, there's always an enemy somewhere. ]

[parodeity]

Okay, so...are you willin' to try your dumb alien romcom moves on the insane juggalo, or should we just keep rollin' the dice?
