Here's my bit of charity to you, named and nameless collective of the stranded:
A theater class has issued the assignment to design and perform scenes of each student's own making, and, to no one's shock, many are deciding they're going to be making up bits based on imPorts. Rather, what they know or WANT to believe they know of them, and gods already know how dreadful an assessment PROFESSIONALLY published works are in that regard.

You're welcome to provide me with information of what you are...or are NOT, that I may, perhaps, educate or mitigate the onslaught of amateur theater to come in the following weeks. Doubtless you've seen rumors of yourself littering the shopping markets.

I'd lament that art is dead here, but I've been told washroom facilities are displayed as museum pieces here, so what would I even know about it. Humans are weird.

ohhhh aren't you brave with the threats suddenly

i'm shaking in my boots that i don't wear

[adamantlyardent]

I doubt very much that amateur theater is at all enough to knock a warrior goddess off her feet.
Besides, what good would it do? Should it be that torturous, doubtless I'd come across you shredding public property in protest and making an awful lot of noise about it, and that's not a headache I'm interested in at all.
I merely mean to say I may have to convince the girl that you are not at all into looking like the pink, sparkly folders laden with cats she loves to carry around.

[plentystrong]

did you swallow some kind of bravery pill tonight

anyway yeah you got that about right

i am very into sushi though

you can tell her that

[adamantlyardent]

I COULD just tell her to look you up at that cafe you advertised, presenting whatever sushi is as a peace offering.
As for bravery, hardly. This isn't bravery. This is an olive branch.

[plentystrong]

i'm not sure what an olive branch is but i'm pretty sure it's not something i need

and sure go ahead

[adamantlyardent]

Traditionally, it's a show of good faith in the name of peace or reconciliation. Species of branch can vary from culture to culture.
I think orcs use animal bones or something.

[plentystrong]

i wasn't aware we were at war but ok

[adamantlyardent]

"War" might be the wrong word, but you sure do groan at the sight of me.

[plentystrong]

does that in any way surprise you?

[adamantlyardent]

A little? I'm not sure what I did to offend you that would leave such a lasting impression. I didn't imagine I'm THAT abhorrent.

[plentystrong]

i mean you're not on the top of my list of people i hate

but fact is whenever we run into each other something terrible happens

[adamantlyardent]

But none of that was my fault! I'm as much a victim as you are in those respects!

[except the movie. she was definitely a willing participant in the movie.]

[plentystrong]

debatable

but either way it just keeps happening so excuse me if i prefer to stay far far away from you

[adamantlyardent]

Debatable HOW? I don't actively go out of my way to cause a bad time. I don't even PASSIVELY go out of my way to cause a bad time! Most of the time I Just want to be left alone!

[plentystrong]

see now we're agreeing on something

there's your tree branch thing

[adamantlyardent]

Olive branch.

[plentystrong]

yeah whatever

it's a branch so it belongs to a tree

[adamantlyardent]

Alright, fine. The intent is the same.

[plentystrong]

finally you get it

so we're on the same page here yeah? we keep the peace by avoiding each other as much as possible

[adamantlyardent]

As you wish.

[plentystrong]

awesome

have a good day i guess
