[12:57] TA: Yo.

[12:57] CT: D ==>> Hello

[12:57] CT: D ==>> Pleased to see you are still persistant in breathing

[01:02] TA: II can't tell IIf that's sarcasm or IIf you're actually happy II'm alIIve?

[01:03] TA: II'm takIIng IIt as a complIIment.

[01:03] TA: How's IIt hangIIng, dude? You holdIIng on?

[01:06] CT: D ==>> In many ways, I am holding

[01:06] CT: D ==>> However, I fail to see how I would I would ever give the impression I am not

[01:06] CT: D ==>> Success in avoiding untimely demises are events to be celebrated

[01:06] CT: D ==>> Or so I am told

[01:23] TA: IIs that lIIke a wrIIgglIIng day, or?

[01:23] TA: II mean, II've seen you struggle before, bIIg bl00. Can't II check IIn on my favorIIte angry buddy?

[01:28] CT: D ==>> Your attempts at becoming a wiseacre are noted

[01:28] CT: D ==>> Although your claims at favoritism fall beyond my realm of understanding

[01:28] CT: D ==>> Angry I am yes, but your... buddy

[01:28] CT: D ==>> I am not

[01:59] TA: II mean, at least you admIIt to beIIng angry.

[01:59] TA: What, we're not even a lIIttle bIIt frIIends?

[02:00] TA: II totally watched you destroy somethIIng, that should count for somethIIng.

[02:00] TA: EmotIIonally.

[02:00] CT: D ==>> How does this qualify

[02:01] TA: II'm just sayIIn.

[02:01] TA: We've been through some shIIt.

[02:01] TA: You showed your true colors when the fIIshbIItch attacked, we're buds now.

[02:02] TA: And that color IIs REBELLIION GRAY, hollaaaaa.

[02:04] CT: D ==>> It is a miracle I have not yet crushed your spine for daring to remind me of my own depravity

[02:04] CT: D ==>> If that is your unit for comparsion, then I suppose we two are the best of damned bosom buds this far out of the stellar quadrant

[02:04] CT: D ==>> That is to say we are not

[02:04] CT: D ==>> And you ought to reign yourself

[02:04] TA: Do you mean reIIn?

[02:05] TA: Wow sorry that was a shIIt move II can't belIIeve II corrected your typos.

[02:05] TA: Tbf man you made the choIIce you're a decent dude get over IIt. You're nIIce.

[02:05] TA: And you wouldn't crush my spIIne, because IIt wouldn't be that satIIsfyIIng. II'm lIIke a twIIg. There are lIIterally already holes IIn that spIIne. What fun IIs thIIs.

[02:06] TA: Also II'm pretty sure you lIIke me more than you wanna say.

[02:06] CT: D ==>> What are you implying

[02:09] TA: Uh, that you lIIke me?

[02:09] TA: II'm not IImplyIIng anythIIng that's not even subtext.

[02:09] TA: That's pretty blatant text rIIght there.

[02:10] CT: D ==>> Yes but what I fail to understand is

[02:10] CT: D ==>> Never mind

[02:11] CT: D ==>> Let us just move on from the subject

[02:11] TA: What, man, don't leave me hangIIng!

[02:11] TA: What were you gonna say?

[02:11] TA: You even lIIterally sent half the sentence. IIf you dIIdn't want me to questIIon you on IIt you could've deleted the whole thIIng. That's how typIIng works. II speak IInternet.

[02:12] CT: D ==>> I am not using my communcation keyboard, I am using my voice inscriptor

[02:12] CT: D ==>> My hands are currently busy

[02:12] CT: D ==>> Be calm

[02:13] TA: IInsert eyebrow waggle here. II dIIdn't know you hated me lIIke THAT, bIIg bl00.

[02:13] TA: But nah just kIIddIIng what're you actually doIIng wIIth your hands.

[02:13] TA: Are you buIIldIIng shIIt.

[02:14] CT: D ==>> I am in the process of erecting simple hive blocks for the amphibious consorts of this planet

[02:14] CT: D ==>> The duty is my own and it is a rather peaceful pastime

[02:16] TA: Oh, huh. What planet are you on?

[02:16] TA: Does that voIIce IInscrIIptor pIIck up noIIses? WIIll II be able to tell IIf II make you laugh?

[02:17] CT: D ==>> It is possible

[02:17] CT: D ==>> Uh

[02:17] CT: D ==>> Are you not aware of our present location?

[02:18] TA: Oh! You're just down on planet? II was thIInkIIng for a second that you were lIIke. On a dIIfferent planet.

[02:19] TA: WhIIch makes no sense. How would you get there. Great deductIIve reasonIIng, MIIkkev.

[02:19] TA: II kIInda haven't been outsIIde yet. Dunno what kIInd of consorts they're rockIIng.

[02:20] CT: D ==>> Salamanders

[02:20] TA: Rad.

[02:20] CT: D ==>> Are you quite done with your tangent?

[02:20] TA: And you're buIIldIIng them tIIny hIIves.

[02:21] TA: Tangent? Me? Nah, II never do that. Maybe you're goIIng on tangents and you want to throw me off.

[02:21] TA: What, you had somethIIng else you wanted to talk about?

[02:29] CT: D ==>> If you wish to discuss the finer details of hive construction, by all means, I could tolerate the indulgance of doing so

[02:29] CT: D ==>> However this conversation is a bit all over the board, as it were

[02:30] CT: D ==>> An overwrought if I have ever dared to witness one

[02:30] TA: Do you only have conversatIIons wIIth explIIcIIt goals IIn mIInd and stated at the begIInnIIng and the end? IIt's not an essay, man.

[02:30] TA: II just wanted to talk to you.

[02:31] CT: D ==>> You must suffer a terrible degree of loneliness to subject yourself to my company is what my suspicion is

[02:31] CT: D ==>> Condolences

[02:31] TA: Hey, what, no. II have frIIends.

[02:31] TA: Maybe II lIIke your company, asshat.

[02:31] TA: You must suffer a terrIIble degree of low self esteem to thIInk you're so horrIIfIIc to speak to, IIs what my suspIIcIIon IIs.

[02:31] TA: Condolences.

[02:31] TA: You should work on that. MIIght feel better.

[02:32] CT: D ==>> And again, we have circled back to the question that boggles my incredible mind space

[02:32] CT: D ==>> Why

[02:32] CT: D ==>> To any of this

[02:32] TA: Why what?

[02:33] TA: You're a good dude. You don't deserve to be all down on yourself all the tIIme. And you're one of the smartest people on the shIIp, whIIch means you're one of the only people that can hold a conversatIIon wIIth me about engIIneerIIng bull.

[02:35] CT: D ==>> Mmmn

[02:35] CT: D ==>> It seems that I am not purchasing this particular brand of balderdash

[02:35] CT: D ==>> I have to wonder what you hope to gain

[02:35] CT: D ==>> In fact, it concerns me on a more personal level

[02:35] CT: D ==>> Are you seeking companionship?

[02:37] TA: Why does everyone always have to be tryIIng to gaIIn somethIIng, serIIously? Maybe II'm a nIIce guy.

[02:37] TA: And II mean, what.

[02:37] TA: IIt feels lIIke when you say companIIonshIIp IIt doesn't mean companIIonshIIp but II don't know what IIt does mean.

[02:37] TA: DefIIne companIIonshIIp and we'll see.

[02:40] CT: D ==>> A troll to occupy your time with

[02:40] CT: D ==>> What else would I suggest

[02:41] TA: Oh thank god.

[02:41] TA: II dunno, man, you make everythIIng sound lIIke an IInsult.

[02:41] TA: And II don't know, maybe? II wouldn't say no to hangIIng wIIth you more IIf that's what you're askIIng.

[02:42] CT: D ==>> It is rather odd to actually

[02:42] CT: D ==>> Desire

[02:42] CT: D ==>> Such a thing

[02:42] CT: D ==>> Guh

[02:43] CT: D ==>> Do as you wish, Mikkev

[02:43] CT: D ==>> It is evident I cannot stop you

[02:43] TA: Why IIs that odd?

[02:44] TA: And do you /want/ to stop me?

[02:44] TA: II mean, you dIId just call me by my fIIrst name.

[02:44] TA: Not lowblood. Not even PsIIIIonIIIIc. You lIIke talkIIng to me too.

[02:46] CT: D ==>> My word

[02:46] CT: D ==>> I am fractions close to barring your handle

[02:47] TA: Well, II can't stop you.

[02:47] TA: No one says you have to talk to me.

[02:47] CT: D ==>> This is true

[02:48] TA: So are you goIIng to?

[02:49] CT: D ==>> For nothing better, I can only say the arrangement is

[02:49] CT: D ==>> Uncomfortable

[02:49] TA: Uncomfortable how?

[02:49] CT: D ==>> It simply is

[02:50] TA: Look, dude. II'm not IIn thIIs to force you IInto shIIt. II'm not goIIng to make you talk to me IIf you don't want to. II lIIke you, II lIIke talkIIng to you, II'm tryIIng to be better about beIIng honest about that stuff, but you don't have to. IIf you want me to leave you alone, you can say that, and II probably wIIll. Mostly.

[02:51] TA: II mean, IIt'd suck a lIIttle, but sometIImes shIIt just sucks. IIt happens.

[02:51] TA: No hard feelIIngs.

[02:51] TA: II dunno, II just kIInda generally get the vIIbe that IIf you really dIIdn't want to talk to me you wouldn't reply? You're not exactly the beatIIng around the bush type.

[02:54] CT: D ==>> I am not, it is simply a matter of accepting the reality that you do not bear ill will for all that I have committed and all that I have represented in your past e%istance

[02:54] CT: D ==>> I haven't an idea if you mean to seek a trustworthy companion out of me and if it were the case, I find myself uncertain as to whether i can provide it

[02:55] CT: D ==>> In fact, it seems as though the healthier option is to leave it be

[02:55] CT: D ==>> And yet

[02:55] CT: D ==>> The very idea is a mite pitying in recollection

[02:55] CT: D ==>> This is the honest truth

[02:57] TA: Man, sometIImes you talk so pretentIIously that II don't know what you're tryIIng to say. We talkIIng about the good kIInd of pIItyIIng, or the bad kIInd?

[02:57] TA: II don't bear you IIll wIIll.

[02:57] TA: II kIInd of fIIgure you've made up for IIt.

[02:57] TA: You've proved yourself, man.

[02:57] CT: D ==>> That is an absurd thing to claim

[02:57] CT: D ==>> I have not proven anything

[02:57] CT: D ==>> I do not stand for anything

[02:57] CT: D ==>> And I do not pretend to

[02:57] TA: II guess you could say II'm tryIIng to seek a trustworthy companIIon IIn you.

[02:57] TA: Way to not answer the questIIon, Darkleer.

[02:57] TA: Okay, you don't stand for anythIIng, whatever. II don't care.

[02:58] TA: You've proved that you stand up for what's rIIght when IIt fuckIIng matters, haven't you?

[02:58] TA: That defIInIItely happened.

[02:58] TA: You're a better person than you thIInk you are, dumbass.

[03:01] CT: D ==>> I cannot help but feel as though every time I speak with you, I age several gapeloads of sweeps

[03:01] CT: D ==>> You wear on me in a manner most awful

[03:01] CT: D ==>> Yet I cannot deny there is admiration in your persistance

[03:01] CT: D ==>> Damn it all

[03:03] TA: So. What does that mean.

[03:04] CT: D ==>> What ever implication you believe it does

[03:04] CT: D ==>> You are the one so certain of my nature and intents

[03:05] TA: Wow, bIItter.

[03:05] TA: Dude, II never know what you're thIInkIIng.

[03:05] TA: II analyze wIIth what IInformatIIon II've got IIn IInput.

[03:05] TA: That's what computers do.

[03:06] TA: Come on, bIIg bl00. Make yourself clear for once?

[03:07] CT: D ==>> I'm...

[03:07] CT: D ==>> Hrm

[03:08] CT: D ==>> Ultimately, I will not turn you away

[03:09] CT: D ==>> I hope this proclamation alone is enough to satisfy you

[03:10] TA: IIt totally IIs. Awesome.

[03:11] TA: We've come a long way from all the IInsults. Maybe someday II'll know your hatchname, whoa, man, takIIng shIIt to the next level. When you're back on deck we should hang sometIIme.

[03:11] TA: But for now, II hope your hIIve buIIldIIng IIs goIIng well. Those salamanders better be hella grateful.

[03:12] CT: D ==>> They have gifted with with their most prized possession

[03:12] CT: D ==>> A tall hat of the finest quality

[03:12] CT: D ==>> **me with

[03:16] TA: Wow, II bet you look dashIIng IIn that one.

[03:16] TA: Very fancy. Much upper class.

[03:17] CT: D ==>> It would be more remarkable if I were wearing the appropriate garb

[03:17] CT: D ==>> However, I am perspiring far too much in my construction efforts to bother doning more than trousers at this moment in time

[03:17] TA: So just shIIrtless IIn a top hat. NIIce.

[03:17] TA: You could always brIIng IIt home and save IIt for a specIIal occasIIon.

[03:18] TA: What kIInds of hIIves are you buIIldIIng? IIndIIvIIdual ones, or more lIIke complexes?

[03:28] CT: D ==>> Ah

[03:28] CT: D ==>> Individual

[03:28] CT: D ==>> I grew distracted

[03:28] TA: SomethIIng happen?

[03:29] CT: D ==>> There are limited supplies present and I am attempting to sort through them

[03:29] CT: D ==>> Comple%es would be ideal however, given their perilous living conditions, easily movable shelters are more ideal
