he'2 a giigantiic a22hole, ii2 what ii'm tryiing two 2ay.

oh god.
ii kiind of want two 2ee thii2.

I've heard some of that and witnessed some other things and, yeah. He's a lot worse than I thought he was when we met. I keep trying not to think on it too hard, because me and revenge do not historically have a good precedent and I always come back to that when I think about what he's done.

See?? It sounds both lively and entertaining. And also I get to know Sollux more, which I definitely want to do.

[thekidsare0kay]

well, ii don't need you two take revenge for me, at lea2t.
ii've already done what ii feel needed two be done iin that area.

get two know...
oh.
thii2 whole thiing ii2 confu2iing, but yeah ii get iit.

[guiltapalooza]

Would it be morally dubious of me if I asked for details on what you did? Not that I would ever get any enjoyment out of hearing other people getting their just comeuppance. Never.

It is kind of confusing, but it almost feels normal by this point. I think I've been here too long.

[thekidsare0kay]

well, iit'2 not the be2t 2tory...
eriidan and ii went after hiim, becau2e he triied two kiill me, and ii gue22 he pii22ed eriidan off by not falliing at hii2 feet and 2uckiing hii2 bulge upon meetiing hiim, ii don't know.
ii diidn't really care about hii2 rea2on2, two be hone2t, ii ju2t wanted backup.
2o we found douche2car and he wa2 terrorriiziing p2iioniic at the tiime.
we confronted hiim and he took p2ii ho2tage wiith a kniife at hii2 throat, and before we could do 2omethiing about iit, he 2liit hii2 throat.
and p2ii bla2ted wiith hii2 power2, 2o ii had two put up a 2hiield, or we would have all been 2taiin2 on the wall2.
but iit 2ure kiilled dual2car.
2o that'2 what happened.

you would thiink ii'd be u2ed two double2 of me.

[guiltapalooza]

I didn't realize he'd gotten killed. If there's anything I can do ever, please please tell me? Not that I like getting into fights, but I like hearing about you guys getting hurt even less.

Because you're a Gemini? Oh, wait, trolls don't use those names for your symbols. I just thought you were being thematic with the 2's and your name and all.

[thekidsare0kay]

yeah, he got really dead.
that'2 a really niice offer.
ii'm 2ure ii can kiick hii2 a22 next tiime.

ii liike the number two.
iit'2 not ju2t thematiic, iit'2 a feature of beiing me.
ii'm biipolar and lot2 of thiing2 about me are doubled, liike my number of horn2.

[guiltapalooza]

I have every confidence that you can kick his ass, but if you ever want him to, I don't know, feel compelled to avoid one room or type in red for a week, you let me know.

Oh yeah, I didn't really notice that before. It's funny though that your symbols all match up to your personalities so well.

[thekidsare0kay]

type iin red?
you mean liike 2iignle22 red?
GO FOR IIT. THAT WOULD ROCK.

iit'2 not funny at all.
we choo2e our 2ymbol from a lii2t ba2ed on our own per2onaliitiie2.
iif you ever meet 2omeone who 2hare2 your 2ymbol that would iindiicate you have a lot iin common wiith you.

[guiltapalooza]

I don't know, I kind of want to hold it in reserve for a special occasion and then, wham. Because really, the only thing better than magic is hacking with magic.

I was sort of getting that hint. I more meant that it's strange how it lines up with Earth astrology, but I'm guessing this is more of what Aradia was talking about with blah blah Earth was created by trolls, time shenanigans.

[thekidsare0kay]

yeah, ii get iit.
good iidea.

yeah, that'2 not nearly a2 iintere2tiing.

[guiltapalooza]

He better watch out, then, because I'm ready.

My eyes usually glaze over, and I tend to be good at following this stuff.

[thekidsare0kay]

ju2t make 2ure you giive me front row 2eat2 when you do iit.

well, when aa get2 goiing, iit'2 amaziing how iintere2tiing 2hiit can get boriing.

[guiltapalooza]

You got it. I'll give you fair warning.

It's just all so complicated, it gets hard to follow. Gossiping goes a lot better for us.

[thekidsare0kay]

excellent.

yeah, that'2 how iit u2ually goe2.
