06. Edensphere is a bit like bison

[Topher is seated by a newly replaced window in the lab. There's a few borrowed tools around him that he's been working hard to fix it, and just in time since there's a soft tapping of rain against the new glass.]It never rains this damn much in LA--this is just like how I imagine Seattle, but with less emo bands and more ninjas

I stopped trying to make sense of what the Animus do a long time ago. And maybe they've just run out of ideas for what to put us through next, so they're repeating stuff.

[mytechendsworld]

So young, so jaded! That's my Toph.

That's just lacking an imagination. Why repeat when you know what the outcome's gonna be more or less.

[tophsmash]

Someone's gotta be, especially with spastic people like you running around.

[It's a compliment...sort of? A Toph compliment at least? She's kind of mean to the people she likes.]

I don't think they try and make sense. Maybe they're repeating stuff to throw us off...or maybe they're just bored.

Again...I stopped caring enough to figure it out.

[mytechendsworld]

Spastic!! I'm not spastic I'm dramatic!

[Ah Topher...]

Wait no. I'm realistic.

[Nice save]

The other major question I have is IF they were here and then they disappeared, why can THEY leave and the rest of us can't? Entire world, not melding into ours...kinda suspicious right? Ya think someone would look into i.

[tophsmash]

Dramatic works too. Realistic...not so much. Maybe I'd believe you on that if you stopped spewing out nonsense half the time.

I have no idea. All this stuff is way too confusing for me. It's way too...science-y for me to figure out.

It's not my fault there was a paranoia event!

It's not THAT hard. Come on a 5th grader with a lot of imagination can handle this one. Can't you feel the earth and see if that place is wacked out or not?

[tophsmash]

Just saying. That week had enough crazy for you to last for a month.

I felt the elevator thing but I couldn't exactly feel the tree itself, since it's wood. But I could feel that their world is big, really big.

[mytechendsworld]

Just you wait till you have a crazy week.

So what can you feel? Are you one with the earth and the rocks but not the things that grow from the Earth? This seems very arbitrary.

This place makes me feel so un-special. I can't feel rocks. I can't even tell when dinner's ready.
