.003 ♐ cerberusTestament is allergic to your goddamn valentine foodstuffs. [Text]

[disgracedvoid]

}↠ Just out of almost idle curiosity
}↠ Is there anything to eat in this place
}↠ That is not currently over-saturated with sugar
}↠ Or the color pink

Comments

[xanthous]

You're complaiiniing about all the food. II don't 2ee how complaiiniing about thiing2 that are free and the only thiing2 avaiilable ii2 anythiing but grouchy.
At lea2t you have thiing2 to eat.

[disgracedvoid]

}↠ They are not free
}↠ And you would do yourself a favor if you realized that

[xanthous]

They're free enough. At lea2t thii2 place giive2 people the optiion of beiing able to eat. But, waiit, II forgot hiighblood2 liike you had all of tho2e priiviileges 2o you've never had to worry about food before, riight?

Maybe iif you have you wouldn't be 2o angry about the color of the food.

[disgracedvoid]

}↠ You would do well not speaking about what you know nothing about
}↠ And perhaps stop projecting onto others instead of actually listening to what you are being told
}↠ It is neither productive nor endearing

[xanthous]

Why do you a22ume II would want to endear my2elf to a per2on like you?

[disgracedvoid]

}↠ Because in my experience, such foolishness is somehow tied
}↠ To a misguided attempt to be entertaining
}↠ So if that happens to be the case, please, allow me to disabuse you of the notion

[xanthous]

You mu2t not have that much experiience then. Why on Alterniia would I ever want to entertaiin you? Annoy, maybe, but II'm not 2omeone here for your plea2ure. II'm not a 2lave anymore 2o II have no rea2on to be friiendly wiith your kind or to want to make thiing2 fun for you.

II hate troll2 liike you.

[disgracedvoid]

}↠ And yet, you engaged me in conversation
}↠ Certainly not the other way around

[xanthous]

Con2iider it punii2hment for your criime2.

[disgracedvoid]

}↠ ...what

[xanthous]

Diid you really beliieve II would not learn about what you diid? The executiion of a troll far better then any of you hiighblood2?

[Granted it took a lot of wheedling and reading the Disciple's journal to learn who shot the arrow but whatever.]

[disgracedvoid]

[...WELP. This was bound to happen, he supposes.]

}↠ You misunderstand
}↠ I am merely bewildered as to how a conversation could somehow constitute suitable punishment for my actions

[xanthous]

Word2 have power, you know.

Be2iide2, you can't really hurt a per2on iif you don't know how they work and 2o far II've learned that you really need to relax. Plu2 maybe beiing remiinded of the horriible thiing2 you've done wiill get you to be le22 of an a22, but II doubt it. Troll2 liike you never learn.

Plu2 why do you hate the color piink? That'2 weiird.

[His flawless plan isn't really working out.]

[disgracedvoid]

[...whoops?]

}↠ I suppose that makes sense

}↠ But if you must know, I am generally indifferent about the color pink
}↠ Or any color in particular
}↠ I just find the sudden influx of it somewhat mystifying

[xanthous]

IIt does? Waiit, of cour2e iit doe2.

Haven't you been payiing attentiion? IIt'2 2ome human holiiday that celebrate2 romance. II gue22 they really love moiiraliiegences here.

[disgracedvoid]

}↠ Indeed

}↠ From what I understand, and it is not much
}↠ Most of these aliens do not even observe quadrants
}↠ But no, I have not been paying attention
}↠ I do not particularly mind the network all that much

[xanthous]

[He's preening right now.]

II don't thiink many of the troll2 do eiither, not that there are many worthy of affectiion here.

[And believe it or not, he actually means himself.]

What'2 the poiint iin cuttiing your2elf off? 2o you can feel better then the people who are friiendly?

[disgracedvoid]

}↠ Whether they do or not, it is none of my business or concern

[And it's also not yours! Specially not yours, considering the latest developments in his life, quadrant-wise. He gets the distinct feeling Psii is baiting him, and his first instinct upon such realization is to stubbornly refuse to take the bait.]

}↠ Hardly
}↠ I am not a particularly social troll
}↠ I make for poor company and I know it
}↠ So I prefer to keep to myself

[xanthous]

Bluh bluh whatever, mopey.

[Being away from the hemospectrum makes him even more of an asshole.]

At lea2t you admiit iit, but that doe2n't explaiin why the hell people giive you the liight of niight anyway2.

[disgracedvoid]

}↠ If you expect me to have an answer for that
}↠ You will be sorely disappointed

[xanthous]

That ju2t 2um2 everythiing up, doe2n't it? No an2wer2 for anythiing.

[Sighs. This is a depressing conversation and he's definitely not thinking of the same things Darkleer is, now. He doesn't have answers for anything. He doesn't know what happens to him, or why, or what happened to anyone else except for Signless. He knows nothing and he hates it, but he can't ask Darkleer, of all trolls. Darkleer has no reason to answer him, and he's a highblood. What if he lies? Or what if he's right, but it's not what Psii wants to hear? What he wants to hear is that he died alongside of Signless, because if he outlived his savior he wouldn't be able to stand himself.]

[disgracedvoid]

}↠ All I know
}↠ Is that the dearest an answer might be
}↠ The less likely it is to come to you when you need it most

[xanthous]

That'2 ju2t another way to 2ay you'll never get an2wer2.

[disgracedvoid]

}↠ And you never will, in all honesty
}↠ You can either make your peace with that, or not

[xanthous]

You don't even know what II want an2wered, a22hole.

[He's not supposed to be the one getting pissed off gdi.]
