[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]

[ 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. ]

[alchemenace]

Policy ...

[ ????????? ]

... Well, I probably wouldn't be able to get that even if it exists in Corona anyway.

[vigilantics]

Really? Why?

[alchemenace]

[ im in jail

say anything BUT that, varian ]

Well, my Dad's not about to pay for it.

[ no that's WORSE HE GAVE HIMSELF DEPRESSION ]

[vigilantics]

[ VARIAN NO ]

-- well it's nothing to worry about!

[alchemenace]

[ WHY DID HE SAY THAT ]

A...anyway. I still don't know what it is?

[vigilantics]

It-- sometimes a company pays for stuff when it gets broken?

But not all the time.

[alchemenace]

Oh. Usually I just fix it myself?

[vigilantics]

No second explosion?

[alchemenace]

That only happened once. ... Or twice.

[vigilantics]

Or three times?

[alchemenace]

No, because I learned to control the fire reaction to my cleaning chemical by then. ... Mostly.

[vigilantics]

Oh. I see!

[ she doesn't see. ]
