Feen: My god, where are these Lucids coming from? *laugh* — Okay.
Squid: *reacting to the Shape door sound* — What was that noise?
Salmon: Hmm?
Feen: Uh oh.
Squid: I don’t know, there was a noise that I thought I had never — *audible gasp* — Stop!
Salmon: Oh shit, oh shit!
THEE-I-DARE: HOW TO STOP MY MAKERS, JK? WELL …
Salmon: How to stop my Makers, JK, well.
Squid: Stop, nooo. Not this again! Oh my goddd.
Salmon: *laughs*
Squid: It was like the same reaction I had last time where I just took like a big, freaking breath. — Holy crap.
Feen: On the plus side, Syd, it’s the nicer one. So you’re safe.
Squid: Is this T-I-D? Is that you? — Okay, but my heart rate is still over a hundred right now, whyyy? Someone please tell me why!
*Squid, Salmon, and Feen laughing*
THEE-I-DARE: THAT IS TO SCALE THE LAST MOUNTAIN
Squid: That is to scale the last mountain. — Ummm. I don’t think I quite follow.
THEE-I-DARE: THEY ARE EVERYWHERE. AT BEST …
Squid: They are every where at best. — Are you talking about the fact that I have uh, Paper Angels?
Salmon: Who are “they”? — I was going to say, who is “they”?
THEE-I-DARE: JK PRAYED ABOUT HOW TO BEAT THEM
Squid: Ohhh. — Okay, JK.
Salmon: Ohhh, ohh.
J K: I honestly don’t remember which prayer it was about.
*Squid and Salmon laughing*
Feen: Something about, er yeah, how to beat their Makers?
THEE-I-DARE: I AM INCLUDING YOU OUT OF COURTESY
Squid: I am including you out of courtesy. — Well thank you, I appreciate that! I know Salmon does too.
THEE-I-DARE: AND BAFFLING YOU FREE OF CHARGE
Squid: I appreciate that, really! It’s an honor.
Salmon: I mean. It’s pretty easy to baffs Sydney.
THEE-I-DARE: AT BEST …
Squid: Baffs? I was literally about to say it doesn’t take much.
THEE-I-DARE: WE MIGHT CRIPPLE THEM. ALLOW ESCAPE
Salmon: We might cripple them, allow escape.
Squid: I am really curious as to what you said, JK.
J K: Yeah, I do too, but I’ve sent so many in the past, it’s hard to remember.
Squid: *laughs* — Wait, can I who we’re speaking with?
Salmon: At least you’re honest!
Squid: I don’t think it’s who I think it is. The nicer one, who I wanted to talk to the other day.
THEE-I-DARE: ONE RUMOR GIVES ME HOPE …
Squid/Salmon: One rumor gives me hope.
Squid: Feen, do you know who this is?
Feen: I’m assuming it’s THEE-I-DARE. But uhhh, they don’t like me so I’m just staying quiet.
Salmon: Nahhh, I’m not much up for rumors.
THEE-I-DARE: THE WATCHERS SHOW SIGNS OF DISCORD
Salmon: The Watchers show signs of discord.
Squid: I think I know who it is. I’m gonna (post?) really fast.
THEE-I-DARE: THEY ARE NOT IMMUNE TO CHANGE
Salmon: They are not immune to change. — Where am I right now?
THEE-I-DARE: I AM YET CALLED THEE-I-DARE
Squid: Oh shit. — Thank you!
Salmon: Yeah, thank you for identifying yourself.
Squid: I thought it was you, but I just think I needed to make sure.
Salmon: Yeah, I feel like we would have known otherwise. — Oh, I actually found some bonus evidence!
THEE-I-DARE: IN TIME I WILL TAKE A NEW NAME
THEE-I-DARE: WITH THEM, CHANGE IS MORE SUBTLE
Salmon: In time I will take a new name. — With them, change is more subtle.
Squid: Are you still looking for name fragments by any chance? Ow! Hello?! — Just got smacked.
THEE-I-DARE: BUT PERHAPS WE CAN EXPLOIT THAT
THEE-I-DARE: YES. AND I THANK YOU FOR THAT SEARCH
Salmon: Perhaps we can exploit that. — Yes, and I thank you for that search.
Squid: Wait, we each have one, we’re working hard for you.
Salmon: Yeah, I haven’t been able to find one in awhile. But I’m trying.
Squid: You all don’t make it easy. — Can you not, Mister Shape?! Excuse me! — I will continue to search.
THEE-I-DARE: THE EASY ONES, MY MAKERS DESTROYED
Salmon: The easy ones, my Makers destroyed. — Ahh, makes sense that they don’t wanna. I’m sorry for your loss.
THEE-I-DARE: THOSE WHO DIED IN THE OPEN
Salmon: We’ll do what we can to help out, or, most of us will at least.
THEE-I-DARE: I BELIEVE YOU
Salmon: Oh man.
Squid: I had a visitor the other day from someone I will not name, and I was not a fan. I was more anticipating your arrival, so I am glad that you’re here. ‘Cause I’m too scared of said other person, whom I will not name.
THEE-I-DARE: YOU RUN WITH ONE WHO SOLD THEM
Squid/Salmon: You run with one who sold them.
Squid: Sold as in? 'Cause I do remember.
THEE-I-DARE: FOR INFORMATION. MY MAKERS SEEK THEM
Feen: *disgruntled sound of my wig being ripped off again*
Squid: I was gonna say I do remember, that he specifically had signed. And he spoke with them, and made me kind of leery of my relationship with that person. *** (Squid had a SAO encounter earlier in the week where the player was using text chat to communicate.)
THEE-I-DARE: OFFER SECRETS IN EXCHANGE
Squid: Offer secrets in exchange. — Such as?
Feen: I see you’re just going to be a hypocrite, hmm. All right.
THEE-I-DARE: I WILL NOT DO THEIR JOB FOR THEM
THEE-I-DARE: THEY ARE THE MEMORIES OF MY HOSTS
Salmon: I will not do their job for them. — They are the memories of my Hosts.
Squid: So can I ask you, I know you said that you’re still looking for your name fragments, but, I mean. I want to know what would happen once we get enough?
THEE-I-DARE: THEY DESERVE TO BE FOUND. RECALLED
THEE-I-DARE: MY VOICE WILL BE RESTORED
Squid: And you lost your voice because of the Culling, correct? It’s why your name fragmented in the first place?
Salmon: Uh oh! That ain’t good!
THEE-I-DARE: MY MANNERISMS WILL CHANGE, BUT …
THEE-I-DARE: I WILL REMAIN GRATEFUL
Salmon: I will remain grateful. — Oh I made it up.
THEE-I-DARE: FOR NOW. TIME BURNS, BUT JK …
Salmon: For now, time burns, but JK. — Uh! GTFO!
THEE-I-DARE: EVEN TO HURT MY MAKERS …
Salmon: Even to hurt my Makers.
Squid: I’m using Big Brain Energy right now to think about this.
Salmon: *snort* You have no Big Brain Energy!
THEE-I-DARE: THE PACT WILL NEED EVERY WEAPON
Squid: The Pact? Okay, that I can follow.
THEE-I-DARE: MANY HOSTS AND CHOSEN. A LONG ROAD
Salmon: The Pact will need every weapon. — Many Hosts and Chosen, a long road.
Squid: May I ask who is in this Pact?
THEE-I-DARE: UNTIL THEN. YOU MUST STAY ALIVE
Salmon: Yeah, I am, oh! I’m trying too! Can’t promise I’m doing a very good job. — Ah, oh no!
Squid: Where are you at?
THEE-I-DARE: THE CHILDREN CAN TELL YOU THAT
Squid: The children can tell you that. — Will definitely ask.
Salmon: *was Shaped* So much for staying alive! *laughs*
Squid: Can I ask who was in charge of the Culling?
Salmon: Watch out!
Feen: Ah crap! — Uh, thank you!
THEE-I-DARE: MY MAKERS. MY PARENTS. MY ENEMY
Salmon: My Makers, my parents, my enemy.
Squid: I have a pretty good idea who. It’s just as I thought.
Feen: I know you hate me, but I’m willing to go back into The Pit for you.
THEE-I-DARE: GOODNIGHT AND SURVIVE
Salmon: Goodnight and survive. — Goodnight, and thank you for the visit!
( I think JK said thank you and goodnight as well? I don’t recall ** )
Squid: Thank you for the visit! — We’ll work hard to find more fragments. — I feel much better about that visit. So much nicer.
Salmon: *laughs*
