[atrb=border,0,true][atrb=cellspacing,0,true] BS: < The conversation has alwayys been about yyou; yyou and yyour friends, yyou and yyour game, yyour future even~ BS: < yyou're just noticing now because I've hit something a little uncomfortable?~ BS: < Though I would hope yyou do not see me on romantic escapades because that would make yyou, oh great Emperor to be, a stalker~ BS: < But I mayy have a couple in mind, it is onlyy so long before the drones start their dutiful jobs after all; yyou have a bit more time then I little wriggler~ BS: < And yyou are being irrational in yyour defense to think FLARP is a code for romantic escapades~ BS: < It seems more yyour area of expertise, the whole romance thing that is~

RT: Have you ever noticed that your nicknames for me are as exalting as emperor to be and as condescending as wriggler? RT: Kind of funny when you are on my end. RT: Anyways, I sincerely doubt my beloved books have any correlation to real life. RT: I kind of doubt trolls could really get away with masquerading as other blood colors as much as they do in these. RT: Lastly, I am surely not a stalker. RT: That is my least favorite thing to be. RT: Just saying.

[atrb=border,0,true][atrb=cellspacing,0,true] BS: < Are yyou sayying yyou don't like myy nicknames for yyou? I thought theyy were more than suitable, but surelyy His Lordship knows best~ BS: < And hiding yyour blood color doesn't seem an easyy task, but that greyy one keeps dedicated enough so it is possible~ BS: < Probablyy a bit harder for one of yyour unique standing~ BS: < Do yyou have some master plan up in yyour think pan involving dressing up as some landdweller?~ BS: < That would be sort of unpleasant actuallyy, so if yyou do don't share~

RT: No I do not believe I will ever go around as a land dweller. RT: Not because there is anything wrong with them, but I would like to keep my gills un-maimed thank you very much. RT: Though you did mistake me for a violet blood at first, did you not? RT: I may be wrong, but I do not think I am. RT: Why else would you have suggested my death because of that possibility? RT: Hmmm?

[NEREID POMANO]

[atrb=border,0,true][atrb=cellspacing,0,true] BS: < Whyy of course there's absolutelyy nothing wrong with being a landdweller, in fact I'm sure it's quite the dream~ BS: < What with being the worst of the species and not being able to go anyywhere near water for a varietyy of reasons~ BS: < But look at yyou, all grown up and aware~ BS: < yyes in fact I did mistake yyou for a violetblood, but that was merelyy out of assumption and perhaps desperation~ BS: < Trolls like yyou are far and few between after all, and myy custodian... she was rather impatient~ BS: < I doubt anyyone but a cullworthyy blind troll would make that mistake for more than a moment~

RT: I should have known better, should I not have? RT: Well I would not know about that. RT: You are the only troll i have really met in person, you know that. RT: At first glance I probably could not tell the difference between a cerulean and a blue blood if my life depended on it. RT: Would that make me cullworthy or just more pathetic? RT: The questions that circle through my head. RT: They are too numerous.

[atrb=border,0,true][atrb=cellspacing,0,true] BS: < Mayybe not just byy phyysical appearance, though there is something about the phyysical presence of fuchiablood, or even a purpleblood~ BS: < But there are simple thing yyou can do to figure out a troll's blood color; but the most obvious, and least violent, is to look at the shirt theyy wear~ BS: < Their caste syymbol should be on their shirt and in the color theyy belong to~ BS: < If that isn't the case yyou are more than welcome to take the violent approach of seeing what color theyy bleed~

RT: Wait, are you saying. RT: In an ever so kind way. RT: And tactful I suppose. RT: That I should slip them a cut just to find out their blood color? RT: Seems a bit archaic, does it not? RT: Or maybe I am just being a bit more pacifistic than normal.

[NEREID POMANO]

[atrb=border,0,true][atrb=cellspacing,0,true] BS: < Archaic much like manyy of the novels yyou read~ BS: < But archaic does not mean the syystem in place is broken~ BS: < It means it has lasted this long for a reason; because it works~ BS: < And yyes, pacifism seems to be a recurring trait as of late, I honestlyy do not understand it in the slightest~ BS: < What is so awful about our species that one would disown the part that rules us? BS: < I am not demanding yyou run amok on a culling spree, but that yyou recognize it as a much needed option in our societyy~ BS: < Our vastlyy different viewpoints seems like it will be problematic down the road no doubt~ BS: < But I hope yyou realize I am doing myy best to accept yyours; despite how this world has raised me~

RT: Even if others have called it tyranny, even in my history books. RT: I am glad you are at least trying. RT: As I am trying myself to accept your views. RT: I am not sure what I would do without you. RT: I think it would be a dull and dreary existence to return to.

RT: I never said thank you, but I will say it now so that your "you are welcome" does not go to waste. RT: Thankyou. RT: of course this whole thing is fate. RT: There is no doubt in my mind. Too many things would be different without you. RT: Amusing thought, no?

[NEREID POMANO]

[atrb=border,0,true][atrb=cellspacing,0,true] BS: < Amusing to a fair degree, yyes I would agree~ BS: < I'm going to blame yyou for the sentimental nonsense I'm about to tyype, since yyou started this~ BS: < But I trust yyou a lot Tantri, it's probablyy sponge rot since that's coming from me~ BS: < And the thing I was attempting to hide, not veryy well looking back over the chatlog, but it was that I~ BS: My custodian is dead. BS: And I was the one to kill her...

RT: What happened? Are you alright? RT: I mean obviously you're not alright alright... RT: Will you be fine would probably have been a better question, actually. RT: Will you tell me what happened Nereid? RT: If that is not too rude of a thing to ask.

[atrb=border,0,true][atrb=cellspacing,0,true] BS: < It's whyy I've taken up FLARP again; I have a lot of time now that I don't have to feed her anyymore~ BS: < Funnyy how yyou're the last troll I tell and yyou actuallyy care~ BS: < Syympathyy from the landdwellers is hard to come byy, not sure whyy I said anyything to begin with~ BS: I'm sure fine will sum me up quite well for awhile, though things are a bit empty without her. BS: And to think I had thought her to be the root of all my problems; ignorant seems to sum me up a lot of the times as well. BS: As for what happened... So long as you don't think me ill? I know your relationship with your lusus was not a violent one...
