I was going to apologize for throwing more inane bullshit on here, but since we're all going to be dying of plague soon I guess it's actually kind of topical. Get out while you still can, you know?

Anyway. Has anyone from an earth like this visited their home here? Was that kind of fun or just massively depressing?

And uh, I guess if the overwhelming answer is depressing I'm also taking vacation recommendations. I'm not really picky as long as it's somewhere kind of quiet and thought provoking. Someplace you can clear your head, you know?

See? It's just your fault again, not anything I'm doing! So lighten up.

[cephalothorax]

I said "too," not "exclusively!"

[deadtective]

Too late, you can't take it back!!

[cephalothorax]

I don't have to take it back; I never said it to begin with!

[deadtective]

You did now! It was implied and now it's forever!

[cephalothorax]

Well, your saying that I said it is forever, but you'll need better evidence that I meant it that way before you can really claim my saying it is forever.

Also?

Just so you know...

     This
  Is  .  You
    Talking

Wherein "." signifies the point.

[deadtective]

Oh man, how did you get that so even? I could never get it to look so nice, all I can do is ^make _waves ^like _this.

[cephalothorax]

Ah! I want to do that. How did you do it?

[deadtective]

It's a secret! I don't know if you can handle the responsibility.

[cephalothorax]

Oh, I don't know. I can probably look it up somehow. Or ask Tempo, perhaps!

[deadtective]

Not if I tell her not to tell you first!!!!

[cephalothorax]

That seems really petty! Do you want to be petty!

[deadtective]

It's one word away from pretty which is the closest I'll ever get!! So yes!!!

[cephalothorax]

Really? You're going to go with spelling puns right now?

[deadtective]

It's that or break out the fancy text again and make you feel simultaneously bad and dazzled. Your choice.

[cephalothorax]

Well I wouldn't go that far. But I still think you should just show me how.

[deadtective]

Can I get like, two or three exclamation points in your grateful response as a thank you?

[cephalothorax]

If I say yes, will you do it?

[deadtective]

Probably, yeah.

[cephalothorax]

[o ok lets test that shall we]

All right. I'll use two or three exclamation points in my grateful response.

[deadtective]

Awesome! < sub > without the space is how you get the _{low ones.} Once I see those exclamation points I'll give you the ^{high stuff.}

[cephalothorax]

Hmm, shouldn't I give you one upfront and the other after you tell me about the other one?

[deadtective]

No. You should blow it all at once in the knowledge explosion that was my first installment of education.

[cephalothorax]

But then how do I know you'll supply the second installment?

[deadtective]

You won't, but you'll still have a way to express the depths of your disappointment.
