1 ♐ Voice ♐ A brief check up

[aim_exorable]

[Wow, Darkleer is actually communicating with the network on a whole for once instead of being a miserable hermit. Must be a special occasion. Does anyone know his wiggling day?]

Now then. Have we all cleansed ourselves of the mess and done whatever strange death rituals foreign species feel the need to do?

[Okay, maybe it is just Darkleer being a coldhearted dick. Eh.]

I believe we should focus on the more important matter here. I have seen discussions scattered throughout the network, but it would be best to have all our thoughts and speculations focused in one place on both the destruction of those so-called faeries and on the recent appearance of that Carol individual.

For those of you who are oblivious and prone to missing the obvious, things are changing in this place. It would be best to be prepared.

[Don't be fooled, he's not doing this to be nice. He's doing what any troll knows to do: looking out for himself and the few he cares about. If that means even faintly working with others, well, he'll learn to deal.]

[Also, that's all the network is getting from him. Click goes the camera!]

[Filtered to Summoner]

[Darkleer hesitates before sending this one out, although his voice is just as stoic and stern as ever.]

Since your children in particular seem to be taking this badly, perhaps it would benefit you to know that those things which followed us were nothing more than mere robots. The technology may have been organic in nature, but it was still nothing truly living. No pain, no loss of life.

That's all.

[Listen, he's not good at comforting other people. Archeradicators did things... differently. It was a lot of bottling things up inside and hoping that they faded on their own. Sometimes it worked, sometimes it didn't.]

D --> I doubt there was much anyone could have done for them

[In fact, you could say he is really really bad at this.]

Text;

[rebull]

[Bad at what, exactly. What is even happening? Summoner's confused about why Darkleer even posted to begin with since he never does, and why he filtered something to him as well. Both things are odd.]

wHY DOES 1T EVEN MATTER WHAT 1 TH1NK?
1'M JUST A JESTER TO YOU, rEMEMBER?

[Ffft...ugh.]

dON'T ANSWER THAT.

D --> It never hurts to be too cautious
D --> We've always known there to be another meddling with our affairs
D --> Now we can connect a face to them even if only faintly

D --> If I need your skills
D --> I shall be sure to call for them

D --> Speaking of such
D --> I trust the explosion of the faerie device was not too troublesome?

[Jerk.]

[rebull]

[Was kinda a jerk too though...]

[rebull]

[Okay, a jerk first.]

[rebull]

[Should probably... apologize or something like that...Because.... that'd be nice, and... not, mean or rude or...stuff.]

[rebull]

[...]

Text; And a filter just because... you like that ...stuff. Whatever.

[rebull]

[Sends a new private message then.]

sORRY.

Text; gosh, he already put a filter, you baka! /tsuns forever

[aim_exorable]

D --> I should think it hardly matters at any rate
D --> You've not once cared what I've thought before

[Does he have to be concerned, Psii?]

Text; YOUR FACE WHATEVER

D --> Stop being confusing
D --> What does that mean?

It was nice to have them communicate with us for once, wasn't it? But it seemed like they sent someone fairly low-ranking. There is almost certainly trouble with the administration, here.

Hiighblood, currently II 2u2pect that we do not truly exii2t out2iide of the artiifiiciial enviironment of Vatheon.

[ And maybe he's been a little off besides that. ]

1T MEANS THAT 1 DON'T NECESSAR1LY NOT CARE ABOUT YOUR OP1N1ON,
