week 6, tuesday

[vigilantics]

[ so, they have had a... very busy weekend. seriously. this has been a lot.

but once things have quieted down a bit, steph is going to hunt varian down. ]

Hey.

Comments

[vigilantics]

[ ... ]

They're... trying?

[alchemenace]

They definitely are trying.

[ it's true. ]

[vigilantics]

As long as it... works for them?

[alchemenace]

[ does it. does it work for them. let's just change the subject ]

Well, the good news is, now I don't have to worry about trying to get information out of Belph, ever.

[vigilantics]

[ okay she has to cover her mouth to stop her from laughing. ]

He can be nice.

[alchemenace]

I'm, I'm sure he has the capacity, but now I don't have to waste my breath hoping he'll try it on me.

[ varian isn't nearly good enough at socializing to try a beast like belph thanks ]

[vigilantics]

[ yeah steph has had several weeks to reach social link 10 ]

Weeell... yeah, that's fair.

[alchemenace]

... Though, between him and Hikage, you sure have been partnered up with some pretty stubborn people, Stephie.

[vigilantics]

...

I wonder if that was on purpose...

[alchemenace]

... The possibility is pretty high, if the Crafters are the ones picking roles and partners.

[vigilantics]

It was probably for the best that it was me paired with them though.

[ stephanie isn't going to say out loud that there is a very high chance that both hikage and belph would not have given a fuck about what was happening if she didn't friendship them to death, but. there is a very high chance that would have occurred. ]

[alchemenace]

Heh, yeah, obviously, what better way to make sure things work out than to pair them up with a known hero? [ beat ] Small h.

[vigilantics]

[ she chuckles. ]

I guess not all of their ideas are horrible.

[alchemenace]

Only most of them.

[vigilantics]

Like... 90%?

[alchemenace]

95.6%. Maaaaybe .5, but I'm leaning .6.

[vigilantics]

Let's just round it up to the 96%.

[alchemenace]

Ha, well, uh, I try not to round up too high anymore after some ... slight... miscalculations.

[vigilantics]

[ ... ]

Did something blow up?

[alchemenace]

Pfft, what, no? It just overheated, which ...caused a series of explosions?

[vigilantics]

Does insurance exist yet?

[ she has concerns. ]

[alchemenace]

Uhhhhh?

[ you know what whether it does or not he's fourteen and poor enough his clothes look like he picked them at ye olde peasant shop, i'm gonna say he doesn't know what insurance is ]

[vigilantics]

...

[ pats his shoulder. ]

It's fine. Even if it did, it's not something you'd have to worry about yet.

[alchemenace]

Does it protect against slight lab accidents?

[ slight. ]

[vigilantics]

If we get one that has that on its policy?

[ hm. ]
