I haven't felt like this in a while. [ He sounds cheerful enough, though. ] You never know what this City is going to throw as us next and every day we're left wondering if the next day is going to be worse. [ His voice is clear and strong. ]I've only been here for a month, and honestly? I wonder how so many people can still be so strong after ( Read more... )

Speak for your fucking self. Some less fortunate shit heads don't actually have anything to go back to. Why not be sensitive to them, huh?

100yearsgone December 3 2011, 05:06:57 UTC

[ He doesn't know the swear words, but he can recognize tone just fine. ]

I didn't mean to be insensitive to those who would rather stay here. I know it sounds that way, and for that I apologize. [ He bows his head slightly to show he means it. ]

There are probably thousands upon thousands of worlds out there that I will never even learn about. It's not my place to judge someone for wanting to stay here, and I would never do that.

[ taps his claws on the desk in irritation. ]

Then why did you question it like a fucking wiggler in the first place?

I was only wondering how people stay positive despite everything that happens. I haven't even been here for most of it, but I've heard about some terrible curses.

It's not about staying positive. Fuck, it's being realistic. There's nothing you can do to change your situation. You can't get back on your own grubfisted accord and time wherever you're from stops. So it's not even like you're missing out on any nookbiting shenanigans that might occur. Why worry over shit like that?

How can you say there is nothing I can do when you haven't even tried escaping? You can't know that for sure.

If you want to stay in the City, that's your choice, but I have to find a way out. I won't give up.

trollsbackwards December 9 2011, 15:06:21 UTC

Excuse the fuck out of you. I've been here for almost half of a fucking sweep. Some have been here for three years and this shit was going on for at least four! Don't you think some shit heads have tried to escape? How dare you fucking assume that no one has tried, including myself.

It's also not about giving up! You'll return to wherever you need to be in due time, you goddamn idiot. Everyone returns at some fucking point!

100yearsgone December 9 2011, 16:34:06 UTC

I know some people have tried to escape, I just assumed you hadn't tried escaping because you didn't seem like you'd want to. It was wrong to assume anything about you personally. And for that I am sorry.

But I can't just sit back and wait, even if what you say is true. I have to find a way out, I can't just sit around and wait for stuff to happen. I know it's a long shot, and that others have tried escaping. [ Since he wants this man to know he never assumed no one had tried before. ] But I don't think wanting to go home now makes me an idiot.

Humans are so fucking grubfisted...

No, there's nothing wrong with wanting to go back, but don't just get all up in your hooves. Getting all over emotional and fucking caught up in the moment? That's bad fucking news. You say shit you don't mean and end up paying for it later.

But there's also the fact that who the fuck knows what's going to happen. If you try so zealously to return when no one in four goddamn human years has succeeded, that's not going to go over well on you just in general.

Coincidentally, I do want to get back, even if that means I'm going to fucking die within minutes, which is a very real possibility! But I have people here that also need me so guess what? I'm going to focus my goddamn attention on them like a food friend and leader should until it's time for me to go back.

100yearsgone December 12 2011, 06:23:45 UTC

Grubfisted...?

I know that and I promise I will be careful. The last thing I want to do is get anyone hurt. You're not the first person who has told me that escape attempts usually don't end well for everyone. If I knew I was the only person who would suffer for trying to leave, that'd make things a whole lot easier. This place really knows how to keep you trapped here.

I wasn't asking for myself you know. I want to find a way for everyone to return home. Everyone who wants to at least.
