You know what, I am so sick of this. Completely sick of this!! And look at me, repeating myself and using multiple exclamation points (two!) like a rebel. Because I am a rebel!

I'm tired of all these embarrassing personal incidents. When they aren't embarrassing, they're deeply horrifying and disturbing. I just want regular old test taking anxiety again! I want worrying about whether Anya is going to ask Giles if he has a new orgasm friend yet in public! And all that demon stuff, even that was familiar.

But here it's like, oh, here's that troll kid I'm friends with and he got his arm torn off. Here's me turning myself into a troll and going creepy stalker over Aradia. (Which by the way, oh Goddess am I sorry for and eternally mortified about.) Or here's me picking up the bloody scraps of the clothes of the double of someone I'm friends with!

And don't tell me I'm using too many of's there, I told you I'm a rebel today! I just want my test taking anxiety back, darn it. I'd even take worrying over when I'm going back to college, and that was a lot of worrying.

... Okay, whining done. End whining. In other news, who's still having wacky collar-induced sickness and power-tampering shenanigans? Cause frankly I'm finding this really worrying and I want to get to the bottom of this.

........
Tell me you're joking.
Tell me this is another example of your lame humour and that you don't seriously expect me to stop and take notes in the middle of a fight.

[guiltapalooza]

Notes, no. Maybe use a modicum of memory and tell me whatever you find out, yes.

But if that request is too much let me know and I can tone it down.

[ceruleanspid8r]

You're making the mistake of thinking I care a8out this shit.
All I want to know is what do I have to avoid and how hard do I have to hit it.
And once that fight's done?
I don't even care a8out that.

[guiltapalooza]

I don't know how you missed the memo, but whatever Lone Ranger plus Rambo act you had going on at home isn't going to fly here. These are completely different rules, Vriska. You're part of the community here whether you like it or not, and you're not nearly as blind and murder-happy as some others I could name.

I'd much rather be working with you than firing off snarky comments all day because you don't care. That's all.

[ceruleanspid8r]

Except I don't care.
I've never needed anyone 8efore, I'm not sure why everyone's so convinced I need to start now.

[guiltapalooza]

Because there aren't a lot of us, we're stuck in close quarters, and anyone that gets killed off comes back.

We're in a closed system. You have to deal with us.

[ceruleanspid8r]

All the more reason for me to stay the hell away from you all, if you ask me.
This is a 8ig tower.
I don't have to deal with anyone or anything I don't want to.
........
Except those stupid games, 8ut I won those so who cares?

[guiltapalooza]

Go ahead if you want, but don't be surprised if you have to eat your words.

I really would appreciate if you tell me about the monsters you run into, though. It's not like I would mind doing you a non-violent magic-related favor sometime if you asked.

[ceruleanspid8r]

I don't trade in favours and I certainly don't need yours.

[guiltapalooza]

Ugh, fine. If you really don't want friends, your loss.

[ceruleanspid8r]

I don't want them.
I don't have them.
I don't need them.
That's how it's always 8een, that's how it'll stay.

[Well, ignoring Tavros. But he's not there so she's pretty much back to lone wolf]

I'm not even sure why you're getting so worked up a8out it.

[guiltapalooza]

Everyone deserves a chance, that's why. I couldn't exist without my friends.

[ceruleanspid8r]

Good for you.
That's not me.

[guiltapalooza]

I said fine.

[ceruleanspid8r]

Then I'm glad we could get this worked out.
