Nice to meet you too. What happened out there?

[420blazeit]

We were all in the world's shittiest spaceship. Each team was assigned a role, given solutions, given problems, and we had to yell through intercoms to try to fix everything. It went pretty well.

[ she's not done!!! ] But one of every three solutions was a dud... and our reactor went critical and exploded.

[arealeyeopener]

That's fucked up.

[420blazeit]

Bad End got 3 duds. Now that's fucked up.

[arealeyeopener]

.............so did like everything blow up at the same time....

[420blazeit]

For Bad End? Or for us?

[arealeyeopener]

I guess I may as well ask for both.

[420blazeit]

Bad End I, ah, didn't ask about their problems, but we all faced different stuff. Like, for instance, the other two problems we could have had were invading aliens thanks to some broken weapons and extreme paranoia and madness thanks to some broken canisters.

But the stuff send to fix those problems worked fine. What we got to fix the core... well... [ she makes a motion over herself. ]

[arealeyeopener]

Least it wasn't chest bursters....

[420blazeit]

...

I'd take that over this.

[ d.va wtf. ]

[arealeyeopener]

You sure? Because then your chest burster is going to face hug your remaining unitmates.

[420blazeit]

Or all of Imeeji. I guess the novelty wouldn't be worth it and it'd make a shitty pet. Queen probably wouldn't be too happy about it. [ she takes a deep breath. ]

Shit. I really should have brought her over to meet Duality.

[arealeyeopener]

Queen?

[420blazeit]

My cat. [ she gets up and then... ehhhhhhhh. ]

[arealeyeopener]

[eehhhhhhhhhhhhh indeed]

I'm making a face at you right now. You can't see it. But I am.

[420blazeit]

Don't rub it in.

[ reaches for his face to feel his expression! this goes about as well as you can imagine. ie. not well. ]

[arealeyeopener]

[actually very use to this for Some Reason, leaning into it just right without it being too weird

almost as if it's familiar to him]

[420blazeit]

[ she's careful, since she doesn't want to poke anything and hurt him, especially when it's clear that he's trying to help her through this. ]

[ what face is he making now? ]

[arealeyeopener]

[a very calm one now]

My sister is blind, you know. So this isn't actually weird.

[420blazeit]

[ she relaxes. ]

Is she? ...well thank you for making this a bit easier. It's kind of... scary, though I have been doing my best not to really let those thoughts through.

[arealeyeopener]

Eyes being fucked with will always be scary. That's just normal.

[420blazeit]

...mm. It'll be fine soon though. [ she lets her hands fall back into her lap. ]

[arealeyeopener]

Worst case scenario you can just get some new ones.

[420blazeit]

I heard. [ she l- laughs. ] Kinda... weird, but Nine said I could get some cool eyes. Like... glow in the dark or something. He also mentioned shooting lasers, but that seems more dangerous than fun.

[arealeyeopener]

Mine glow. It's kinda overrated.
