WEEK 1

[You now know why you're here, Titled. The question now is, is there a way to get out of here without invoking the rules? What will those who brought you here do to get you to kill?

Time will tell.

There are fifteen strangers in this place.]

[steelmagnolias]

...I can kind of see that.

[ I MEAN. ]

Not to disrespect her or anything, but.

[incrediblystressedout]

no, yeah, she's got her faults. i'm not eight anymore, i can see them.
but she's the closest thing to an adult who's there for me, you know?
i wouldn't trade her drunk butt for anything.
i just kinda hope she kicks that before she has her own kids...

[steelmagnolias]

If she's anything like me, it's probably going to be a really long time before she even considers that.

[ Ah, misspent youth... ]

[incrediblystressedout]

yeah.
addiction can be a powerful thing, and all that.
do you have kids?

[steelmagnolias]

Heh, not that I know of.

I'd say that I haven't met the right person yet, but I'm not even sure if that's true, given how fucked our memories are at this point.

I just haven't felt ready for it until recently.

[incrediblystressedout]

there's definitely no rush on it.
say whatever else about my pa, he is ANCIENT considering i'm only 14.
going off of him you've got another few decades to settle down.

[steelmagnolias]

[ Aren't you 14 HOW IS YOUR DAD OLDER THAN HIS DAD ]

I just turned 40 some time ago.

[incrediblystressedout]

huh. i don't know if i thought you looked older or younger than that.

[steelmagnolias]

You wouldn't believe how much work goes into not looking like you've been through a war once you hit 30.

[ He's never had plastic surgery or anything, but... well. He moisturizes. Quite often. ]

[incrediblystressedout]

yeah, not a thing i'm looking forward to, even if i do become a professional performer and HAVE to.
although come to think of it, a lot of dancers change career around or before then.
maybe that's a good way to fit in dancing and veterinarian work...

[steelmagnolias]

I used to be a performer back when I was younger and healthier, before I went back to school and got into architecture.

It's certainly possible.

[incrediblystressedout]

yeah. yeah!
hey that actually sounds like kind of an ideal career path.
just...for different reasons, in my case.
how hard is going back to school?

[steelmagnolias]

It depends. I was still pretty young when it happened, so it wasn't too difficult.

I don't think I could manage now, though.

[incrediblystressedout]

yeah. the older you get, the harder it is to learn new things.
although i can confirm via experimentation that you can teach an old dog new tricks.
they're just more stubborn about it.
