27 ♐ Video ♐ Loss and Gain

[It's sometime at the end of Friday that Darkleer makes this post. He didn't want to ruin the festival for anyone beforehand, but now that it's coming to close, he thinks it's a decent time. For once, Darkleer is appearing on the network without his glasses willingly. He's honestly an open book without them- blue on yellow eyes filled with a bit of sadness, loss, and tiredness. Normally he wouldn't take off his glasses for anything, but- she was his auspitice. She deserves his all, even if...]

Princess Zelda of Hyrule is no long in Vatheon. I imagine many of you knew her, as she was well engaged in much of the community, including the Welcoming Committee and crafting the tunics which assist in breathing underwater. It is also thanks to her that we have been able to find out more about our situation trapped in Vatheon. She was an excellent leader, a keen and intelligent woman, and the finest auspitice one could have asked for. We will all be blessed if she is brought back to Vatheon at some point in the future, yet even if not, we were all fortunate to have her in our midst. I doubt I can take her place, but if you have any questions about Vatheon and its purpose, I will do my best to answer you.

Coincidentally, if there is anyone in Vatheon who possesses a calm head, knows how to settle disputes evenly, and isn't afraid of clowns, please contact me.

Mr. Captor, I would also like to speak with you.

[There's a moment of silence, and then he takes a breath before reaching down for his glasses. He puts them on again and feels the better for it.]

With all of that said, Vatheon, I would like to make you all an offer. In order for this to make sense, however, please allow me to explain a device known as a syalladex.

[Behind Darkleer, what almost looks like a stack of pecular cards pops into existence. The top one seems to show a picture of a bag of bird seed.]

On Alternia, every troll has a sylladex, which is a storage system you carry with you everywhere. It is composed of captchalogue cards which are organized into a deck, a fetch modus, and a strife deck.

The captchalogue cards are where you store your items. You can often find them for sale in the Nostalgia Quarter. The number of items you can hold in your sylladex depends on the number of cards you have, although you can store multiple objects in one card so long as they are similar in nature or purpose.

[He gestures to his deck, which seems to shuffle until another card is on the front. Are those.... Is it a picture full of robotic hoofbeasts? Yes. Yes it is.]

You should be warned that if you do such a thing, then you must bring out all of the items stored on the card even if you wish to retrieve just one.

The size of the item you wish to store is limited, and I would not recommend attempting to store your hive in it. That would be silly. However, depending on the type and quality of your sylladex, you can store large items in it. If you are not sure what kind of items you are capable of storing inside of it, please contact me and I will advise you.

Now we will move onto the Fetch Modus portion of the sylladex. Fetch modi are the methods in which your cards are organized and in what fashion you can retrieve them. There are a variety of fetch modi, as many prefer something which suits their personality or preferences. For the purpose of this demonstration, I have equipped my sylladex with the Array fetch modus, which allows me to pull an item from any of my cards without much fuss. You can equip your sylladex with multiple fetch modi if you so choose. For example, I often use this particular fetch modus.

[He kind of just... reaches over to grab his cards, fiddles with the back for a second, and- pop! The cards are now a different color, what do you know. The deck shuffles again until the card shows, for a moment, a stack of freshly laundered towels. It then immediately shows a screen of a chalkboard with what appears to be a very complex math equation. Darkleer lets it be shown for just a moment before seeming to nod slightly and out pop a whole pile of towels.]

I will attach a document with this broadcast with a list and explanation of a few more fetch modi types. This is not a complete list, and if you have a different idea for a kind of fetch modus that would suit you, I am willing to listen.

Lastly, we have the strife deck, which contains its own specibus. This is where you store the weapons you use for battle, although it should be noted that a deck only contains one particular weapon of its kind.

I am explaining this to all of you because I have made quite a few sylladice during my stay in Vatheon for a few individuals not from Alternia. After the disaster of the flooding, I thought it would be prudent to distribute them out.

If you are interested in possessing a sylladex, please respond to this broadcast and we can work out the details. If you wish to pay me in some manner, I will accept it.


[After the post completes itself, a document containing a list of different kinds of fetch modi becomes available.]

[A low growl]

So, the motherfucking volunteer who seems to be all up and begging for a fucking deathwish reveals himself. What makes you think you can just all up and get between the Grand Highblood and his own motherfucking business? Think you can all up and just stride the mother fuck all in on this shit and think it'll go motherfucking smooth as blood on stone?

its nothing personal bro. thats why im giving you a fair warning. dont test my fucking patience and well be cool.

but hell. we both know youre gonna test it anyway.

[He cackles- man, the ballsy attitude of some aliens are still so astonishing to him.]

Should be me who gives the warnings of testing the motherfucking patience! I'll be all kinds of frank with you, motherfucker. Consider it a warning, a little fleck of motherfucking generosity, the last you'll even motherfucking see from the subjugglator: I will bring down the wicked subjugation down on your motherfucking skull when I all up and get the chance.
stridercentric: (Riiight)

[personal profile] stridercentric 2013-06-09 08:41 pm (UTC)(link)
hey why not. i can always use more subjugation in my life.

so sure. we can settle for a healthy dose of strifing. but i think what you really need is a hot bath. followed by a cold soda. get your chill on.

maybe pet some puppies. throw a few pies.
grandhighblood: (█ gleeful sadism)

Your motherfucking asinine suggestions aside, glad you got your agreement on about that noise, motherfucker. Got a feeling we're gonna get our collision on real motherfucking soon.

[Snickers, adding a mocking 'tsk tsk' sound.]

Ooh, might want to all save your motherfucking strength for the real battle, motherfucker. Let's see what you motherfucking aliens are all up and made of!

Nobody motherfucking declares themselves a part of my motherfucking business unless they motherfucking deserve it. So, why don't you just do yourself and HIM a motherfucking favor and fuck off?

[He hisses the last part, a slight snicker at the end.]

good boy.

now go out and hang with your friends. and remember. bullies arent worth your time.


[Is he taking this thing a little too far? Maybe. He doesn't even know. He's new at this and he has no clue what sort of strategy he should apply, so right now he'll focus on keeping these two from making the situation worse than it is.]

It only becomes a motherfucking shitty quadrant when you introduce the ashen piece, motherfucker. If it weren't for the motherfucking auspitice, we would just be two motherfucking trolls gettin' our platonic hate on. No quadrants.
