shitposting rave 3: Dawn of the third rave

Yeah, sure, you can tell me what a bad job I did.

 

Nephew. I said no.
[Darkness starts enveloping him. He doesn't want to deal with this any longer.]

 

-He shrugs, shrinking the cup to an appropriate size for himself and downing it.-

Did you hear about Prion?

 

[He squints thoughtfully.]

I guess I could see it, but I'm sort of in a committed relationship right now.

 

oh my god.

*Deep nasal sigh.*

i vwasnt hitting on you.

 

Exactly! Three of twelve gods, and I mentioned Baltreshk, Tershoët, and Kelehëu earlier, those are gods as well. Angels can come from all sortsa species and races, it's linked to a certain kind of item that is infused with divine power. Kiliskalea was once a city, is now two.

Exactly! (This "exactly" sounds a lot less chipper and a lot more exasperated than the one she gave Marcus). You close the cycle. Hence, order. Life is the stuff that makes loop-de-loops and knots and branches that death needs to weave back into the circle. But you are linked with chaos. It doesn't make sense. Augh.

Totally a nightmare! That combination should not work and yet here we are.

 

...some societies see knowledge of true name as intimate. Dualscar's Alternia may be one such.

 

What do I look like?

 

I think adult trolls see their hatchnames as... childish.

 

Ah, no, that'd be a day. "Moon" or "Moons" refers to the cycles of the green and purple moons orbiting our planet, the purple one taking thirty-six days and the green one taking forty-three. Kelehëu's Tower is big, one day is not enough.

 

no vwe dont!

 

Okay? I was hitting on you, though. I could stop.

Okay. I think I'm getting the gist of it.

Makes sense. Like fairies?

 

definitely stop.

 

I have no idea what Marcus is attempting to reference. Assume yes.

 

Noted. Should still see someone about that depression-like symptomology though.

 

i dont need to see anyone about it because i aint depressed.

do i look mopey and suicidal to you.

 

The fairies I know don't care about whether you know their true names or not. Well. That or they're real good at lying to everyone.

 

(mountaineer rat has made their way to thr nap pile, materializing an appropriately sized blanket for the sleeping fluffpile of rats and Mis.)

((whoops wrong account + post deletion nothing to see here))

 

Names have power in some fairy tales, so they never give out names.

You don't gotta be suicidal to be depressed. I'm not.

Huh. I wonder if they're a different kind?

 

Maybe. What are the fairies you know like?
