shitposting rave 2, electric boogaloo

Well Ill Try.

 

Anyway. You're allowed to ask people to help take care of your meatsuit, you dorkus. Good compromise?

 

Is it a hemoanonymous chat handle you use to talk to other rebels and stuff, when you don't want people to know who you are?

(My player better have remembered this correctly. They swear this was talked about in the Tango before.)

 

... Fine. Ill Try.

Fuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuck Your Humans Memory Is Good.
Fine.

 

And they're sooooo so proud of that....

 

Well I Bet You Neither Of You Know How Many Of My Names Are Tied To The Concept Of The Philosophers Stone.

 

Nope. My player lurks on the wix thread, so they know the answer is....

All of them!

 

Boo.

Sweet, Sweet Acknowledgement.

 

You girls are forgetting something important. We have a general body of knowledge about how sapient systems work that has been proven numerous times with highly reproducible results. Therefore, the probability that eating regular meals will improve your cognitive functioning, general competence, productivity and creative spark is actually so close to 100% as not to matter--the only situation in which that might not be true is if you eat a species-inappropriate diet or get poisoned or eat something you're allergic to.

The numbers are not nearly so clear regarding dating, because there are a lot of confounding independent variables, such as who you date, how sane you are about dating, what kind of relationship you have, how sane they are about dating, personal compatibility, insecurities, ability to set clear and consistent boundaries, and so forth. Some people start dating someone and suddenly they don't want to do anything other than be with that person.

Valiska and I were like that for a little while, but if it goes on too long it can be a sign of obsession and insecurity rather than a good solid emotional connection--plus, she and I like to work together on some projects and enjoy being around each other while we are working, which helps. Unfortunately, there are some people who don't want to share you with your work, or are afraid of your passion about your work, especially if they're not intelligent enough to understand the basics of your work and your passion for your work, even if you're working in completely different specialities.

(Generally, when you start having sex with someone--which I know doesn't happen in moirallegiance--there is a completely normal drop in productivity that should be both expected and fully enjoyed for the brief period of time that this lasts. I would be lying like a rug if I said that this did not happen to me with Valiska. However, allowing it to run its natural course produces a lot of inspirational energy later and throughout the relationship, particularly with a lover who is also a colleague.)

*Ford blushes very very red*

Also, tempestuous relationships are not necessarily good for your work, although they can certainly inspire you to do better when you have a rival.

Particularly when they involve a colleague.

Especially when that colleague is prone to losing his temper over minor differences of opinion that are normal between colleagues and disputes over technicalities. (Be especially careful with persons you share an office and/or laboratory with especially if you are junior staff...)

In general, however, supportive relationships are good for your work (no matter what form of support it is), and relationships that are not supportive will sap your spark and ruin your productivity, so...don't have those! (Also, anyone who hurts you will only wish they were dead, between you yourself, your moirails, and myself and Lise.)

 

...maybe 1f you werent so much of an 1d1ot, 1 wouldn't have lost my temper so much...

 

I didn't fucking forget! I pointed it out! Stop acting like I'm stupid!

 

Shh I Think He Pointed It Out For My Benefit.
Because I Am Kind Of Stupid About This. Im A Scramble Pan.

Get Lost Jerkwad No One Wants To Know About Your Boner For My Dad.

 

That kind of thing is why Ford and Valiska don't let you cook, Pap.

 

You w-will see me leave room for a diamond they day th-they dissolve me!
#CuteRebellion, #yolo

 

Ooooh yeah, seconding so hard!

I'm not leaving room for any Diamonds or Jesus or anything!

Imma get those bones, that ass, that dick, those tentacles, whatever, and no shiny Gem or Christian deity will stop me!

 

... t-that's... uh...
i-i d-don't even know w-what those mean?
I just w-wanted to cuddle with my friends! a-and maybe fuse. S-s-s-sometimes!
*she hides her face, blushing*

 

Well... it's kinda like cuddling, and fusing. But... me and the person I'm with don't literally become one when we do it. And it's more lewd than cuddling. Yeah...

So, I was basically agreeing with you, I guess, though in a way that used my parallels for what you were talking about.

Sorry...

 

*she peeks out between her fingers*
I-it's okay... I-i just... I-i-i d-don't really know how organics w-w-work? S-so that's... confusing! A-a bit at least.

 

Yeah. But if it's reassuring, the majority of organics, at least, don't have all of the things I listed at the same time. Like, you're unlikely to meet anyone with fuckable bones, an ass, a dick, and tentacles. That list, honestly, is only so long 'cause I have sex with a lot of organic species - or, at least, 'cause I wanna.

 

O-o-oh.
U-uh...
c-congratulations?
