It's like...a video game we played that became real life. Or always was real life?

[compendiem]

Like Retrospec...? I think I asked that when I first got the app. People told me this isn't a game.

[parodeity]

Nah. Like...a virtual reality game that isn't virtual. I'm bad at explaining, but it doesn't exist here anyway, so.

[compendiem]

[ Virtual reality game that isn't virtual... so... reality game. ]

So you can't create gods, huh? Sort of disappointing...

[parodeity]

Nope. But anyway...whatcha gonna do with the bow and arrow thingy?

[compendiem]

I'll probably use it as a walking stick at night so I don't get run over by cars.

[parodeity]

That sure is on use of it. You may wanna try to get archery lessons at the fight club, too?

[compendiem]

[ fight club... ]

I don't really plan to fight people.

[parodeity]

It's more just in case. Like...picking up the skill may come in handy later, if monsters are a thing again?

[compendiem]

Is there no band of vigilante heroes who fight monsters?

[parodeity]

Possibly, but they might not show up just when you need them most.

[compendiem]

You're a sword fighter, aren't you? I could just call you?

[parodeity]

...I mean, yes, I would come and save you if you called me.

[ don't call him out like this ]

[compendiem]

Then I'll take that as an excuse to be complacent. Save me, Dave.

[parodeity]

...So I guess that makes me your personal Knight?

[compendiem]

Yeah.

[parodeity]

[ is that a smile icon ]

You're lucky I'm a sucker.

[compendiem]

[ it's a rare smile icon out in the ic wild... ]

I really am. That's what gods do, right? Protect.

[parodeity]

Some gods, anyway. [ throwing his life down for others is basically dave's JAM though.

he needs a new jam ]

So, hey. If you get any more tickets you're not sure about, feel free to call me up wenever to go grab 'em with you, yeah?

[compendiem]

[ if he can only conditionally die, gotta keep on jamming, Dave ]

Yeah. I'll do that.

[parodeity]

[ the conditions are "just or heroic deaths are permanent" SO SELF SACRIFICE DOES ACTUALLY KILL HIM ]

So, I'll catch you around, then? I should maybe get back home to my cat.

[ priorities ]

[compendiem]

[ Oh. Well. Recollé revival rules. ]

Say hi to Mewpac for me.

[parodeity]

Will do, dude. Try not to shoot your eye out with an arrow.

[ AND WITH THAT, he ends this thread also ]
