I have two things to speak of today, starting with the one directed to the residents of this Tower as a whole.

[She holds up a striped billiard ball from the bar on the 88th Floor.]

I wish to learn to play this game. Who can teach me?

[She then idly rolls the ball in her fingers as she continues.]

As for the other matter, it is directed to those from my world or a variation of it where a specific war takes place involving magi. With Rider gone, his ridiculous idea of a conclave amongst us to discuss the War and those of us involved in it should also disappear.

Though I understand why the King of Conquerors wished for the gathering, it was folly to believe such a thing could ever happen and remain peaceful. There are worst fates than a death that does not take here. I know that there was one that had been planning to use Rider's conclave as means to gaining power with all gathered in one location. Had Rider carried his meeting out before his disappearance, I would have seen to neutralizing that threat.

Should another of you be foolish enough to pursue this idea, I will not and you will reap what you sow.

There are no tennis rackets in this game. You use special sticks to hit the ball with.

[chainsawn]

See, then that's a rule. The rule is that you have to use the special sticks and can't use tennis rackets. ... Or anything else, I guess.

[scorchedchivalry]

...yes.

[pause]

...would you like to learn the rules once I learn them?

[chainsawn]

[ There's a nod. Despite the blankness it seems sort of eager though, since it comes so quickly. ]

I want to be able to play it with everyone too. And with you too, of course..

[scorchedchivalry]

Then when I learn, I will teach you.

[weird child.]

[chainsawn]

Thank you. [ Yup, she's excited. Not that it shows, but she's definitely excited to play a new game. Especially if it's with someone else. ]

I'm sure it'll be.. fun, right? Playing together like that.

[scorchedchivalry]

I would expect it to be.

[chainsawn]

Yeah, I guess it'd be bad if a game wasn't fun. .. I wouldn't know why people would play a game that isn't fun..

[scorchedchivalry]

[So weird.]

Indeed. Is there anything else you need?

[chainsawn]

Right now..? [ .. hmm, she's thinking. ] Not really. I just like seeing what the people are talking about on these.

[scorchedchivalry]

Then I will speak with you once I have learned the game. Take care.

[chainsawn]

Yes. Good luck with finding out.
