shitposting rave 2, electric boogaloo

Isn't dating me changing part of your system anyway?

 

...
...
...
One Variable At A Time?

 

I mean, if you think I'm going to crash you...

 

No! Of Course Not!
But If... I Cant Be Great For Everyone All The Time... I Need To Focus On Being Useful!
I Can Hardly Be Responsible For Mom And She Feeds Herself, Because Shes A Great Huntress. Taking Good Care Of Myself Sounds Like Itd Take So Much Energy I Wouldnt Be Able To Get Anything Done.
And If I Dont Get Stuff Done Then People Leave.

 

Nobody cares if you want to be a lazy piece of shit sometimes, Chroma. You should try it.

 

*grins* Being a lazy piece of shit is really fun, actually.

 

*huffs*
No! Laziness Is Death.

 

*snorts* You don't just automatically die from laziness, AI. Especially not when there's a whole house of people that wants you to stay alive.

 

It's not lazy to take care of yourself. And it gets a lot easier and less time consuming the more you do it.

 

No Drones Come To Kill Me For Being A Waste Of Resources.

Problem: Not Enough Energy To Do Both Upkeep On Meatsuit And Be A Productive Contributor.
Proposed Solution: Do Upkeep On Meatsuit.
Result: Get Culled For Being A Lazy Piece Of Shit.
Please Try Again.

 

*rolls his eyes* There aren't any murder-drones on Pennarion, kid. And if there were, Ford would probably have words with Tainell about it.

 

You're not going to get culled. And...

And being productive isn't the most important thing! So fuck that, and fuck the system that made you think that, and fuck the empress with a firework, and you know what, just fuck everyone, I'm upset, fuck!

 

... Okay But Who Am I If I Dont Consistently Contribute.

 

You're Chroma.

Okay. That was an unhelpful answer. Here's an honest one.

I don't know. I don't know who I am, either, now that I'm not dealing with my mom or trying to do what I was trying to do and I can never go back and I'm just some leftover trash. But somehow people think maybe I'll be someone worth getting to know anyway, so I'm trying to figure it out.

 

Uh, you're yourself?

AI, Splodey, Chroma, aurumIlluminatrix, abditiveInquiry, Achromat Nichrome, Ophira Reesch... the exact same person you are when you are consistently contributing, but just doing other things.

I mean, I don't stop being Norm the Genie when I'm not granting wishes, not helping Pap find Sans or not doing some other helpful thing. I don't become an entirely different person. Just me, in a different state, doing different things.

 

You Care About People. You Are Fierce And Cool. And For Some Absurd Reason You Like Cooking And Food. You Have Super Great Hair. And You Give Great Cuddles, Even If You Are Warm And Dont Feel Like Snuggling The Inside Of A Fridge Which I Like Sometimes. Youre... A Blizzard.
Im Nothing But A Tiny Spark, Dwarved By Your Light.

You Cant Possibly Know Two Of Those Names.
*puts a curtain over the text under her icon*
Nothing To See Here.

 

Well you're going to make the sky explode swear words so I think we're even. <>

 

This is the shitposting rave 2, electric boogaloo. I can know whatever the hell I wanna know here. And it doesn't even affect the Tango proper.

 

Cheating Cheaterpants.
Bet Ya Dont Even Know What AbditiveInquiry Is.
