I seem to have gotten myself into quite a pickle.
Not only am I soaking wet, which is nearly ten times as worse when you have a long gown on, I am also freezing.
Can anyone tell me where in good heavens name I have ended up?
Direct me to some warmer clothing?

[Yeah, Jane looks like a drowned rat. This is not how she imagined she would be spending this day.]

Jane, dear, what he's trying to say is that he is your smoking hot grandfather.

[overbiterestart]

Oh. That makes a bit more sense but, does he have any proof?

[seeriouswizness]

Proof that he's your grandfather?
Or proof that he's smoking hot?
Does the name John ring any bells to you?
Perhaps Sassacre?
Dave Strider or Rose Lalonde, mayhaps?
I can provide the proof that he's attractive, if that's what you were actually looking for.

whoops where am i threadjacking i can't decide

[toheirishuman]

oh my god rose no!
that's not what i was trying to say, stop it what are you doing!?

[seeriouswizness]

Helping.

[toheirishuman]

more like the opposite is true!

[seeriouswizness]

No, I assure you.
My assistance is simply the most circuitously useful help there is.

[toheirishuman]

no, i think you really just want to troll my teen ectomom while simultaneously embarrassing me because for some reason you just totally love doing that.
joke's on you though, i am not at all embarrassed.

[seeriouswizness]

John.
There are so many more interesting things I could tell your ectomother to embarrass you.
If I really wanted to.
You forget who you sleep with at night.
I was hoping you would take my comment as a compliment.

[toheirishuman]

...


fuck.
uh. yeah that's why i'm not embarrassed. because
i took it as a compliment.
yes.

[seeriouswizness]

Good.
And yes, you would do best to remember that, John.
;)

[toheirishuman]

i suddenly feel as though i should fear for my dignity.

[overbiterestart]

Proof that he is my grandfather, and the a reason for why he's calling me Nanna. I don't remember being a grandmother at fifteen.
John?
Sassacre rings a bell.

Oh gracious you aren't giving me enough time to think! Strider and Lalonde ring bells.

[seeriouswizness]

My apologies.
I do not mean to tax you any.
Though the explanation is a very confusing one for anyone who hasn't quite grasped the mechanics of SBURB, so I'm not sure exactly how better off you would be should I give you a direct explanation.
And I have a feeling John would also like to be the one to explain some things as well.

[overbiterestart]

I haven't been participating in SBURB for much time. Perhaps if there were a visual representation of what is trying to be explained it would help.
Don't worry yourself over apologizing, this is all a lot to take in right now.

[seeriouswizness]

A chart can easily be drawn.
And if you're referring to Vatheon, just think of it as a vacation.

[overbiterestart]

An extensively explained chart, I hope. Yes, this place. Which is called Vatheon I can assume?

[seeriouswizness]

Of course.
I am nothing if not completely thorough in my explanations.
And correct.
You should have gotten a quaint little pamphlet when you arrived, actually.
If you're curious to learn a little more of the tourist like qualities of the bubble city whilst you wait on my oh so artistic chart drawing skills.

[overbiterestart]

I was promptly barreled down by Roxy upon arrival, right after John sent me the first text. So I never did get to get a good look at the pamphlet.
Which I will look at now as a matter of fact.
You mentioned SBURB, you're a player as well? Is John?

[seeriouswizness]

Excellent idea.
It doesn't give you a full run down, but those questions can easily be answered by myself or anyone else ready to give you the novella.
And correct on both accounts.
We play from the same session with our two friends slash siblings.

[overbiterestart]

Then if Roxy and Dirk are here. You are all aware we started out own session.

[As void and broken as the session may end up at this point. Everyone has died once and things are going to have to go smoothly from there.]

This pamphlet is rather cheery. Is this the nice way of saying I'm never going home?

omg these threadjacks are a mess

[toheirishuman]

i just so happen to have a chart!
hold on, let me find it.
aha!

Attachment: ectochart.jpg

okay sorry it sucks, i am actually not that great at drawing.
but this should help a little bit.

we are a hot and beautiful mess.

[overbiterestart]

Oh, thank you. Give me a moment to look it over.

[DOING SOME EXTENSIVE LOOKING AT THIS CHART. She is so enthused and amazed at John's artistic ability, obviously. Or she's just shocked.]

I...see.

yup.

[toheirishuman]

yeah.
of course, i drew that before i had a full grasp on the whole...two universes thing.
but basically there are two versions of earth.
pre-scratch: where john, rose, dave, and jade are the sburb players and jane, roxy, dirk, and jake are the guardians.
and post scratch, where the eight of us are flipped.
so in my universe, you are my nanna.
in your universe, i am your grandfather.
but from a biological standpoint, you follow the chart. neither of us are actually each other's grandparents at all!
make sense?

[overbiterestart]

It's going to take a while before I really understand all of this. But the chart was a handy touch.
I'm sorry, it's just that believing this is going to take some time.

[John, she's stubborn as all get out.]

But if we're related in some flip-flop way then shouldn't your last name technically be Crocker? Should you have a love for pranks just as I do? [She's mostly kidding about the last name thing.]
