[As Jonathan talks, he's looking at his skin suit, which is folded up and sitting in his lap.]

Wow, this glitter is amazing! I got drenched in glitter water at that party, and I'm still finding it everywhere. I just found some on my skin suit, and I didn't even wear that on New Year's Eve.

Is anyone else who was there still finding this stuff?

Glitter is one of those things that take a forking long time to get rid of.

I'm pretty sure I'm going to be finding glitter in my hair until the next New Years party.

It's fun! Like, 'remember that time you got covered in glitter? Well, now you do!'

Next time I should go looking human, so I have hair for it to get stuck in. That sounds great.

Being human is definitely overrated sometimes, dude.

I'm pretty sure glitter never comes out of hair. Like, ever. It will be the one thing that follows me back from this place to where I was before.

Re: video;

[drivesadesk]

Awesome!

I'd get back, be in the middle of trying to stop an alien invasion, then go, 'hey, what's this sparkly stuff in my fake hair?'

And...'where you were before'? That's an interesting choice. People usually just say 'my world' or whatever. Where were you before?

Stop the alien invasion with glitter? They'll be so focused on trying to get the glitter out of their scales or whatever they'll forget it.

I have no forking idea, honestly. I was dead, then we were in some separate place with a judge and seriously, it's forked up.

I don't know. I think chocolate and mocha lattes would make a better distraction than glitter, myself, but I could always try both and see.

And...huh. That's weird. Most people here who say they were dead back home are just...you know. Dead.

I don't remember my death but I know I'm dead- very dead- and have been for a while in a place that's not very good.

This place is a huge improvement.

Re: video;

[drivesadesk]

That sucks.

I mean, this place is a huge improvement for me, too, but...being stuck in a shitty afterlife seems worse.

[forkingbullshirt]

Yeah? Where did you come from before coming here?

video;

[drivesadesk]

Another Earth. And I was on the run because I was trying to stop an alien invasion.

video;

[forkingbullshirt]

I guess no one appreciated you trying to stop the invasion?

That's rough, man.

If you like glitter boy do I have a couple of clubs to introduce you to...

Re: video;

[drivesadesk]

Now I don't want to overdo the glitter thing...

But yeah, it's definitely fun as a sometimes thing.

[heliophilic]

I find it takes weeks to get rid of that stuff, though it does have it's... appeal... in the moment.

[drivesadesk]

Oh, yeah. It definitely has appeal. And I'm totally up for going to glitter filled clubs with you. I just might want to limit how often I do that kind of thing or I'll never be glitter free again.

[heliophilic]

You go to one or two of these clubs and I'm pretty sure you'd be screwed on that front.

[drivesadesk]

Really? I'll have to try it out and see. It'll be like a 'get the glitter out challenge' after everything.

[heliophilic]

Don't forget to put it on instagram to be instafamous.

[drivesadesk]

I'm already famous, but I never say no to being even more famous.

[heliophilic]

[A smirk.]

I'm not sure if my clubs can fit your ego.

[drivesadesk]

But I really am famous! I was on two reality shows. I revealed personal information during a truth or dare game. After that, the whole 'famous' thing is just fact.

[heliophilic]

Oh, I'm not doubting your fame, Jonny.

[drivesadesk]

Look, the way I see it, all imPorts get a ton of attention whether they want it or not. I can either eat up the attention or get stressed out by it. I'm just doing the former. And the latter. I'm multi-talented.

[heliophilic]

So you're instinct is fight and flight at the same time?

Oh I definitely have to take you out for a night on the town now.

[drivesadesk]

Exactly.

I'd be up for that whenever you are. Think I should go with or without my skin suit? Maybe with. I could see how much harder it is to get glitter out of hair than scales.

[heliophilic]

Dealer's choice.

I will only say that if you do bring the skin suit, you can always choose to take it off later.

[M is clearly a good influence.]

[drivesadesk]

I'll keep that in mind.

A coworker of mine called glitter "the herpes of the craft world" and I have to agree. I'll be finding this stuff in my scales for months.

[drivesadesk]

Yeah, I know what you mean. From what I've heard, it's even harder to get out of hair.

[governorkang]

I'll keep that in mind for the next time a prank war breaks out.

[An office full of engineers can have some epic ones.]

I'm seeing recommendations of using oil to remove it?

[drivesadesk]

I'll give that a shot, thanks. It might be easier to get oil down between my scales than a washcloth.
