shitposting rave 3: Dawn of the third rave

[He shrugs.] Who knows why sparklings do most things? They're wonderful, but their minds are still developing; their reasons don't always make sense to grown mechs.

 

-genuine amusement.- No, no they don´t. Unless the reason is "Give parent a spark attack." That might explain a few things.

 

[His wings flick amusement, even if he can't actually laugh.] That's not usually intentional, but it sure does happen often enough!

 

Meh

 

you get leaders by them killing all the other leaders and heiresses.

 

I'm surprised you seadwellers haven't gone extinct yet.

 

vwere the same species as evweryone else.

 

Well, yes, but the genes might leave the pool if you guys keep on killing the people with them.

 

Not yet. I need to tell you more about my old team eventually. We.... pretty much had a layover. The part that makes Phaseworld Phaseworld is the massive, controlled rift network. Hundreds of stabilized rifts going all across the civilized megaverse, for dubious values of 'civilized.' But if you travel a lot and you're not an Atlantean, you'll eventually end up on Phaseworld waiting for a scheduled rift to open where you want to go. So we all agree, we've got about two days, we're going to do a short shopping run. Not exactly just for necessities, but we're not going to get sidetracked by tourist trash. We're agreed. We organize a list. We are professionals handling things in a professional manner.

Halfway through the list one of my brothers decides his boots are in bad shape and he needs a new pair. Sure, that won't take long. Except he insists on trying every likely pair we find. We have most of the other things, he says "let's try the lower level, we can pick up the last few items on the way."

Two days later someone's contact has contacted one of our contacts contacts, we've thoroughly missed our rift, he's still trying on boots every other store we pass despite the fact that we found a surprise! new objective! and oh, by the way, you're not headed for the warrens but definitely near them. Which on Phaseworld means "prepare to be wading through four cities worth of sewer before the days out, have fun with the random rifts. If you're lucky it's not Xixtic!"

We couldn't even make it back to the markets. Had to hijack one of the stray rifts. Fucker found his shoes though. One size too small.

((DO NOT PISS OFF THE GM. Especially not on Phaseworld.))

 

theres alvways at least one fuchsia and she fills pails evwery svweep same as the rest of us.

only thing that can kill a fuchsia is another fuchsia.

 

I'm pretty sure your gun could kill a fuchsia.

 

no, my gun cant kill a fuchsia. any blast it has can be easily deflected vwith her owvn powvers.

 

correction: maybe my gun could kill a perfectly generic fuchsia.

couldnt kill her.

 

Really?

 

yeah, really.

i vwouldnt evwer be able to get close enough to use it undetected in the first place. she can spot a neon electric blue rifle from a mile avway.

 

... it sounds like you're exaggerating things...

 

vwhy vwould i exaggerate things.

 

'Cause she's your Empress and so they are probably a lot of myths built up around her, myths that helps keep her in power. And maybe you're not exaggerating things at all, but someone was and that exaggeration caught on and now... you believe the Condesce is omnipotent.

 

the fact that you mistake being a halfvway competent leader for being omnipotent is telling.

 

"I didn't know you had a brother!"
