Kaprao: Recruit some more players.

[flowerwhisperer]

So you have recently learnt that your half your session somehow went and died one way or another and you are all POSSIBLY REALLY BONED now. For some reason a part of you isn't really surprised that it's come down to this, but then again you are already used to bad things happening.

But that is besides the point! You are going to go and try RECRUITING NEW PLAYERS and hopefully avert everyone dying horribly. You have some people in mind, which is to say there are people you'd really rather not die from meteors because they don't deserve it. You just have to...figure out how to explain that it's either a potentially really dangerous game or imminent death by meteor.

Damn.

PS: urm
PS: he||o

Clearly you will not be interrupted in your efforts.

You are not sure whether to be ANNOYED or SATISFIED that you seem to have gotten his attention. If he died, you'd be short one DAILY SOURCE OF INSULTS, and you're still DEBATING whether that's a good thing or a bad thing.

( maybe if YOU were not holed up in some dank labyrinth... )
( ...you'd actually have some awareness of a world beyond flexing your muscles and looking for treasure... )
( ...especially since that world is currently trying very hard to kill all of us... )
( and i am sure you are not so special...that it will avoid YOU. )

...Okay, it felt good to get that off your upper ventral thorax.

Then, for a moment, you debate NOT TELLING HIM. It would serve him right... Problem is, you don't really want him to ACTUALLY DIE. And didn't you just now tell Kaprao that you should try to save AS MANY TROLLS AS POSSIBLE?

Curse that pesky MORAL NAVIGATIONAL DEVICE of yours.

( ...but, ah... as it turns out... )
( ...there's supposed to be some kind of game we can play to save ourselves. )
( not everyone on alternia, though... just a few of us. )

Fuck yeah

[callouslystalwart]

A game. ~~CS
That can save ~us~ from meteors? ~~CS
If you wanted to play with ~me~ that badly, Elapha, there are far less elaborate scenarios you could have come up with. ~~CS

2X FACEPALM COMBO

( if you're going to be difficult about this... i'm sure i can... )
( ...find some other troll to invite. )

Well, maybe not. You don't know that many trolls on Trollian.

( check on your husktop if you really don't believe me... )
( but i'm no flarper; i'm not about to... make up some fictional "elaborate scenario" ...in order to reach a goal that no troll in their optimal thinkpan wants, anyway. )

[callouslystalwart]

Mm, ~I'm~ certainly interested now, at least... ~~CS
Share away. ~~CS

[elaphaea]

Belatedly, it occurs to you that you should maybe FEEL A LITTLE BAD that you're inviting someone Kaprao doesn't know — or, maybe worse, knows and DOESN'T TRUST.

On the other claw, isn't it your RESPONSIBILITY to keep trolls alive? You're pretty sure that that's a thing you are supposed to do. You know, as a JADEBLOOD.

Yes, that's definitely what you're going to TELL YOURSELF.

( ah... yes... )
( i... found out about it from passivesampler... )
( apparently he is... already in the game? )
( i don't really understand it... but apparently only twelve trolls can play... and a lot of their original group died somehow... )

[callouslystalwart]

Well that just sounds downright WACKY.

Of course, you again remember that you've never known Elapha to actually lie. This is also all too bizarre for someone of her sense of humor (or lack thereof) to make up. Plus, y'know, those METEORS are totally real and all.

...Fair enough. ~~CS
~I~ suppose ~I~ might be able to believe you. ~~CS
So you have the game and can send it to ~me~? ~~CS
Can your connection out there even handle that? ~~CS

[elaphaea]

( ...my connection is just fine, thank you. )
( at least it isn't blocked by... who-knows-how-many layers of rock... )

( as for the game... )
( i don't in fact have a copy yet... )
( you've... sort of caught me mid-conversation with kaprao... )
( ...passivesampler, that is. )
( he is...trying to explain the details to me, at the moment... )

[callouslystalwart]

Oh really? ~~CS
Well, seeing how much more important the two of you are, ~I~ shan't keep you from it... ~~CS
Try not to forget about little old ~me~. ~~CS
