_{[If anyone hasn't seen Dirk for a while, it's because he hasn't been here. But he's back now, oblivious to what's been happening in the tower for the past month. The more pressing issue for him at the moment is processing what he's experienced in that wasteland.]}

I refuse to believe that was my home world.

_{[And that's just all he has to say on the matter. What's probably most disconcerting is at this moment, as much as he hates this place, he's glad to be back here. At least here, he's not alone.]}

Just somewhere else they're trying to pass off as home worlds so we'll be more grateful to be here? Fuck if I actually know.

[alephbet]

I wonder if anyone has ever run into another tower resident while there... That would strain their credibility.

[givesyouaboner]

I would love to have that be the case, but I'm sure they would silence that if word got out.
Personally, I saw no one, but that doesn't mean I was completely alone there.

[alephbet]

I'll keep it in mind as a theory.

[givesyouaboner]

That's a good idea. I've been going with the idea that whatever they say is only partially truthful at best.

[alephbet]

I seriously doubt they have our best interests at heart.

[givesyouaboner]

Clearly they do! Gosh, why else would they bring us to this w o n d e r f u l tower.

[alephbet]

They could have pulled it off during the whale incident if not for everything else they do.

[givesyouaboner]

Whale incident? I don't think I was here for that.
But yes, you can assume anything they do can be used as a coverup.

[alephbet]

A giant flying whale crashed into the tower.

[givesyouaboner]

Anything really does go here.

[alephbet]

That's the impression I'm getting.

[givesyouaboner]

It makes trying to adjust to the fucked up things here difficult.

[alephbet]

Even so, I'm sure we can manage.

[givesyouaboner]

Of course. There isn't another option.

[alephbet]

Then it's not worth talking about.
