[andexecutioner]

...Thought you'd say something like that.

[He doesn't seem bothered or off-put by it any, just kind of thinking.]

Something on your mind today?

[innocentloveholic]

What makes you think that? I mean, you're totally right—I have a couple questions! Not soulmatey ones, very important ones.

[ ... ]

Mostly important. There's two that I'm pretty sure I know the answer to but like, I thought I'd totally ask anyway since they'll make everyone's lives better! Even yours.

[andexecutioner]

[...this sounds promising.]

Let's hear them, then.

[innocentloveholic]

Could we get a copy machine or something? It gets really tiring doing flyers by hand, especially when you have to make enough that no one'll be able to miss the fact you're throwing a totally awesome party.

[ ....this is the first of the mostly important questions she's pretty sure she knows the answer for. ]

The ooother question that's like that is—a computer. Just one with Photoshop! Not really sure where we'd get the pictures, because I don't thiiink you'd let us have internet too, but Evaluating and I were talking about my hobbies and it was one of the first things I thought of, and he was interested in trying it some time!

[andexecutioner]

[...So much just. Flipping some more cards over.]

You're not getting either.

[innocentloveholic]

[ you are going to kill her poor, delicate maiden wrists. how dare you. ]

Oooh, I thought that'd be the answer. [ Just. Rocking a little in the chair here, hmm... the other questions... ]

You're totally keeping an eye on us, right? I guess it's pretty easy right now, since we don't have that much to explore, but I never see you come out of here... [ ...ooh. ] Unless you're actually a lizard person? Like, a chameleon! So you can just blend in with your surroundings with camouflage!

[ .........LOOK, I DO NOT DOUBT THERE'S SOMETHING LIKE THIS IN HER CITY, THAT PLACE IS FUCKED UP ENOUGH. ]

[andexecutioner]

[...oh my god, aligula

you can't just ask someone if they're a lizard person]

I have ways of knowing what you guys are up to, yeah. Nothing fancy like that, though.

[Flip. Flip. Flip.]

It's not like I can let you in on all the trade secrets, anyway. I've got to have some surprises left.

[innocentloveholic]

[ sure you can, it's really easy, try it on your local politician and watch his eyes go in different directions for a second before he declines to answer. ]

Of course you do! [ ...okay, so what else— riiight. ] Where's all the stuff from... Do you have to flip your cards like that? What are you doing anyway?

[ ...NOT THE QUESTION SHE WAS GOING TO ASK BUT THIS IS MORE PRESSING, APPARENTLY ]

[andexecutioner]

[...Oh, uh- ]

Do you not do card games?

[innocentloveholic]

Not really. I made castles upstairs with most of the cards I could reach. [ Epitome of Boredom and Dedication. ] Sooometimes the other Kings'll do poker and blackjack? And that fish one.

But I always thought it looked super boring, so I never joined in. It was more entertaining to watch them get all mad at each other instead anyway!

[andexecutioner]

[Oh. Well, then.]

I like having something to do with my hands when I think, that's all. And I'm pretty good at games. I'm still listening to you, though.

[innocentloveholic]

[ do you wanna play go fish— never mind ]

I don't doubt it. You seem like the kind of person who's really good at multitasking. [ ... ] I guess you'd have to be to oversee a game like thiiiiis... Okay!

[ okay. question. ]

Where's all the stuff from the vending machine come from? Like, this totally cute dress came out of it, but so did normal stuff like food! And then there was that weirdo gross caterpillar toy and notebooks and that butterfly knife Attentive tried to use... And Glacial got a straightjacket from it, but he gave it to me recently since I asked for it.

[andexecutioner]

[...Aligula, what in the world - ]

Why did you ask for something like that?

[...why did he ask you something like that

nothing good comes out of questions like that]

[innocentloveholic]

Per-son-al rea-sons.

[ .......let's leave it at that??? ]

I really don't think you'd be interested in learning the details, and like, it's totally rude to ask a lady about what she's into when she's already taken, you know.

[ we really could have left it at that but you just had to keep talking, aligula, thanks. ]

[andexecutioner]

No ruder than it is for the taken lady to be pointing out the attractiveness of other people.

[just saying, objectively speaking.]

[innocentloveholic]

[ Hey. ]

Everyone deserves a compliment, and it's not like I ask anything in return! [ .....though like she told Brady, some compliments in return would not kill anyone, probably. ]

You didn't answer my question thooooouuugh. [ :T don't distract her. ]

[andexecutioner]

Hey, like I said. I've got to have some secrets, right?

[innocentloveholic]

[ and he also gets Aligula pouting at him. ]

......Fiiiiine. [ youre killin her rn. ] Next question. Is it like, anywhere near October? Edifying's birthday is then and she's never had a birthday party before so I was thinking like, we could totally throw her one if it was around then.

[ like regardless i am sure a birthday party will happen and it will just be a collective WE ALL HAVE BIRTHDAYS, IN THEORY, LET'S HAVE A PARTY ABOUT IT sort of thing, but!! yes. ]

[andexecutioner]

[...Actually, um.]

I don't...think so. I'd have to check. I don't really pay any attention to that sort of thing.

[innocentloveholic]

[ ...oh... ]

Why not? It's important to know what time of year it is, since there's totally amazing holidays in like, every single one of them! Like Christmas and Valentine's Day and a ton of totally unofficial but totally great other ones. I know all of them if you're interested in hearing about them sometime.

[andexecutioner]

I know what those sorts of things are, it's just...

[Hmmm.]

I don't really celebrate stuff like that, and whatever date it is out there doesn't really effect me. Life goes on whether I assign dates and times to it or not, you know?

[innocentloveholic]

So I guess you don't have any family to spend time with either, huh. [ ...well, at least she has the kings— ] No associates either?

[andexecutioner]

A couple, I guess. I've never been completely alone, even when I wanted to be.

[innocentloveholic]

You're pretty alone here! [ ..... ] People coming in to talk to you asiiide, I guess, but you could totally just lock the door if you didn't want company.

[ #simplesolutions ]

Are they fun though? Do you have parties? Are they totally [ ...what's a word people use to describe her crowd ] full of nonsense?

[andexecutioner]

We're all kind of solitary people, partying isn't really our thing. I think a couple of the others might be more into it if they were asked, but for the most part we just know each other through work. Not really friends.
