shitposting rave 5: discount rejects from every genre

-at some point when no one was looking the cloth cowl turned back into its original helmet form, and under his leather jacket the bulk of body armor has increased. He's still faking totally fine really hard though-
Where I'm from the part where they're robots usually gives it away. Clones, though. Clones are hard.

-dryly-
Inanimate target or assignment target?

 

... it's really not that easy.

Yeah, but knitting a frog doesn't help with dystopias.

... well, I guess that's good.

 

Jordi's a fixer, he kills people he's paid to kill by people who he is eventually paid to also kill.

 

"You have too much fur to be a sphynx," says Lissa.

 

*Snickers* I was making a D&D joke. *Lowers his voice a bit* The tip to being in Jordi's good graces is to like the same soaps he does and like D&D

 

You're a sphynx now? What's that make me, a tiger? Or a dragon? I want to be a dragon, one of those fucking ancient ones that knows everything and eats people. You're a furry, right? You know what I'm talking about.

Cloning and robots-- nah, we aren't that far. Not that Tidis and Blume aren't trying, mind you, and RenSense has some fucking... biomedical engineering bullshit going on. But most body doubles are just guys in funny clothes pretending to be the guy you're shooting at. Pain in the ass, honestly.

[Jordi might have noticed the increase in armor, but he's not saying anything. No point in giving away an advantage.]

Inanimate. Because I'm on vacation. When I'm not on vacation, that's when things get fun again.

Fail, fuck up, try again, fail better. That's the saying, right? [Siiiip.]

 

Oh my god just because I turn into a cat doesn't make me a furry... But I am one and I do know what you're talking about.

 

-in an obnoxiously cheerful voice-
Could help a kid in a dystopia. Never know.

Well, unless I'm missing something, he just talked about killing some guy for free, so I'm just checking his moonlighting won't get me in trouble.

Yeah, blame the aliens on that one. Aliens and corporate R&D.

-nods in acknowledgement-

 

I didn't call you a furry because you're a fucking cat, I called you a furry because I came home early once and saw all those website you hide when you know I'm in the house. You fucking geek. [Facerubs.]

 

"Hey, I'm a clone. Valiska was the original. Or, from my point of view, the first draft."

 

I mean, yeah, but it's more uh... He kills things that piss him off sometimes? But he also does pro-bono work. Not sure why you're all worked up. He can't do shit in here, and if he tries I'll stop him.

How dare you. How absolutely dare you. *Facerubs back* e621 is a fine site full of fine artworks.

(OOC NOTE: site in question is nsfw)

 

Oh sure, I'll pop someone off for free if they have a go at me or see my face when I'm doing work or fuck up my suit, but that was a special case. It was fucking weird. And Aiden knows me, so he was basically slated to die the moment he started getting all Stepford Smiler at me.

Sounds like a hoot. Only... what, three universes I'm in? Have aliens. Not a whole lot. Tends towards magical bullshit more than scifi bullshit, though we get the scifi bullshit in the whole cyberpunk genre instead. You know how it is.

Yeah, and you play the text adventures for the story, right, sure, I got you. A fucking connoisseur right here.

 

Yep, of course I do.

 

Well, sounds like you got over the brainwashed part a while ago. That's the biggest problem I've had with clones.

Now we're back to the whole trusting strangers thing. Not exactly my favorite hobby.

 

"And you're so sad about it, aren't you?" Lissa snorts. "I may be queer as fuck for humans but that doesn't mean it's not an upgrade."

 

[Amused:] Robots are evil, now?

Lots of things don't help with dystopias. Sometimes charging in, swords drawn, doesn't help with dystopias. Having something to do with my hands helps me with that, a bit. The not-interfering-when-I-really-shouldn't.

 

"I noticed the knitting," says Alex. "What are you making?"

 

A frog, I think? The pattern was for a frog, we'll see how it turns out!

 

I mean, I don't blame you dude. Where I'm from trusting people is a crap shoot usually, I'm just letting you know that is what would happen. Not necessarily for your sake but for mine, because I don't want to deal with the fallout from my own PTSD shit.

That's true! I mean, the urge to Chase Things kinda sucks sometimes but... I'm better at rooftop running.

 

Yeah, heard something about 1984. Glad I don't live where you do - got enough of a camera problem already.

Robot body doubles tend to be. Think the Titans had a cyborg back in the day and he was fine, but it's the supervillains that tend to major in robotics.
