Horrible IRC logs, part 2
More conversations While I try to slog through three brick-sized books and piece together throw-away lines. Spoilers for the game and general horrible warnings.
Zhores Oh Oh Cielo! I finally know where the hell Zhores was stationed
Cielo|ish where?
Zhores Frankfurt. they say he's at the national library, and there was only one outside of west Germany at the time. AND it's close-ish to Düsseldorf, where the hotel was
Cielo|ish awesome
Zhores Yeah, I'm seeing where some of the other locations are to see if there's a cluster pattern
Cielo|ish you mean, besides the Berlin wall? XD
Zhores . . . SOB
Cielo|ish hm I can't actually think of any more locations they mentioned off the top of my head
Zhores yeah they mention dirk's city is close to the east/west border, so there might be a few clues there
Cielo|ish yeah that makes sense
Zhores Sob all my essays are... focused on things like "where the hell does AO take place" and "Zhores' past: Horrible or OH GOD THAT POOR KID?"
Cielo|ish You say that like it's a bad thing!
Cielo|ish Huh it doesn't look like Frankfurt’s that near to the east west border
Cielo|ish But I still haven't found a communism era map
Zhores I have one!
Cielo|ish oh?
Zhores http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Map-Germany-1945.svg
Cielo|ish <3
Zhores Ah here, this one's also useful: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Deutschland_Bundeslaender_1957.png
Cielo|ish hmmm Frankfurt looks like it was probably in the far left American portion
Cielo|ish oh, wait I think I found a labeled map
Zhores yep, I don't think Frankfurt 100% was the base of operations
Cielo|ish yeah
Cielo|ish well it's not like Louise doesn't have multiple mansions
Cielo|ish I can see them both moving for cases pretty easily
Zhores but if I can get a cluster going, it could be interesting
Cielo|ish http://www.magazinepublisher.com/family/images/germany1945.jpg here look at this one
Cielo|ish Frankfurt's a lot closer than I thought too
Zhores HUH
Zhores . . . AO has issues with transportation
Cielo This is not surprising
Cielo how so?
Zhores -or they just assume that "national" means "big and impressive", not "THE FUCKING OFFICAL BUILDING"
Zhores S-so!
Cielo ...o AO
Cielo YEAH AO ISN'T THE MOST PRECISE GAME EVER
Zhores they mention that Zhores works at the national library, which as I said, only viable one is in Frankfurt
Zhores BUT
Zhores Silvio robs the German national museum... of which there's one in Nuremburg (close to Frankfurt) and... the rest of them are in Munich
Cielo Well. At least if Nuremburg's close to Frankfurt, it would make sense?
Cielo I mean, it's not like they have to be limited to one city
Zhores Munich is close to the bottom of the fucking country.
Zhores true
Cielo Yep
Zhores I'm not saying it is, but if someone's trying to roughly pinpoint what area they're coming from...
Cielo it sounds to me like the Frankfurt/Nuremburg area is a good approximation?
Zhores Plus from the sheer number of museums there, I'd place silvio's activities in Munich. but that might be just where the case took Kia, as evidenced from Louse taking Zhores to Düsseldorf
Zhores So far it looks like it
Cielo that would make sense
Cielo Silvio seems the type to locate himself where there's lots of museums
* Zhores nods
Zhores And I could see Louise having a "spare" mansion there
Cielo yeah
Cielo I mean, considering it's Louise, he probably has a mansion in half the cities in Germany
* Zhores nods
Zhores hopefully something will turn up in the other cases
Cielo Hopefully!
Zhores they like to use throwaway lines like that a lot, so there may be a good chance something can be located
Cielo True
Cielo Did they ever name Edwhatsits church?
Zhores I donno
- - - - - -
Zhores "Well, she was in a coffin when I told her, so it'd be creepy if she did answer... heh." OH KIA, YOU'RE SO SANE
Cielo AND WELL-ADJUSTED
Cielo well to be fair, sometimes people compensate for grief with really weird logic
Cielo but yes
Zhores REALLY. Y-yeah. Like joining the kgb
Zhores THAT'S COMPLETELY NORMAL
Cielo well I'd assume there that the KGB went for Zhores
Cielo OH OF COURSE
Zhores OR BECOMING A THIEF, OR THE MILLION OTHER THINGS THAT PEOPLE DO IN AO
Zhores well, yeah. they so went for him
Cielo OR WHORE THEMSELVES OUT TO THEIR SUPERIOR OFFICER
Cielo ..really that probably wins the "you did what? Why? Uh...."
Zhores OR BECOME A WHORE- wait no his dad's still alive
Zhores ...but his mom isn't
Cielo well his mother isn't! I assume at least
Zhores SOB
Cielo XD
Zhores no his mom's dead, I remember that
Cielo Well to be fair didn't she die when he was too young to remember or something?
Cielo idk
Zhores nope!
Cielo Well then. Clearly it was in response to his grief at her death!
Cielo And Louise would just like his parents dead
Zhores he vaguely remembers his mom, that's why he's so bitter at his dad- ACTUALY YEAH IT WAS
Cielo Except not because he wants them to love him :(
Cielo XD
Cielo O AO
Cielo So basically the proper response to someone in your family dying in AO is to become a whore?
Zhores ...does anybody have normal, non-dead family
Zhores AT ALL
Cielo ....Werner?
Zhores ... we hope
Cielo well his dad's still alive at least
Zhores LET'S MAKE A LIST:
Cielo Ali! His dad's alive at least
Zhores timo- dead mom, he's a whore.
Zhores Dirk- Dead mom when he was a kid, now a dead dad too. He's a biker punk
Cielo Lawless - dead parents, fiancée, whores himself out to a general to protect his superior officer
Zhores Kia- LOLOLOLOL
Cielo Zhores: dead parents and sister, whores himself out for the KGB in his sister's place
Zhores Zhores- most likely dead parents, dead sister, A- yes
Cielo And we don't know about most the rest of them
Zhores lemme check the book
Zhores Anel- Mom's dead, he's a- SOBSOBSOBSOB
Zhores Hagen- unknown
Zhores Jens- Unknown?
Cielo Ferdinand?
Zhores Ferdinand- Either they leave him alone or they're dead
Zhores so unknown
Cielo Ao is clearly an excellent model for healthy family relationships!
Zhores Silvio - parents AND his caregiver's dead, now a thief
Zhores I think that's everybody
Cielo Yeah I think so
Zhores IN SHORT, WELCOME TO AO, YOU CAN'T HAVE A NORMAL FAMILY
Cielo BUT YOU GET LOTS OF SEX TO WAIT UP FOR IT!
Cielo ...WAIT YOU WANTED CONSENT? WHOOPS
Zhores AHAHA SO, I WAS REPLAYING THE ZHORES MISSION
Zhores and Zhores so calls Louise on his bad habit of putting things in
Cielo XD
* Cielo puts toothbrushes in
Zhores "oh god, he's not going to put the showerhead in is he?!" "It's a shame, the hose won't reach..."
Cielo ...now the question is, did the bathtub have a showerhead that could reach
- - - - - -
Cielo Well at least I learned that you're safe from candiru as long as you're not in the Amazon river!
Cielo just. You know. Don't EVER pee while in the amazon river
Zhores ...man the old BX isn't looking so great either: http://www.flickr.com/photos/army_arch/2839843460/in/set-72157607091915015/
Cielo unless you want a fish in your urethra
Zhores YES, NEVER URINATE EVER IN THE AMAZON
Cielo that does look kinda creepy
Cielo REALLY THE AMAZON IS PROBABLY BEST AVOIDED
Cielo except I want to go there someday just to see what it's like, but oh well
Zhores IF IT CAN ALMOST KILL TEDDY ROOSEVELT, IT CAN KILL YOU
Cielo BUT IT'D BE INTERESTING ABOUT IT
Zhores ^my motto
Zhores yes.
Cielo well I have to admit it's a pretty good motto
Cielo but then there's lots of places I'd kill to visit but will probably wimp out of ever going
Zhores I value the danger of any situation on wether it can kill Teddy Roosevelt
* Cielo eats Teddy Roosevelt
Zhores It has yet to lead me astray
Zhores . . . My danger barometer!
Cielo Well if he were nearby you could use him to feed hungry cannibal demons!
Zhores "note: cannibalism definitely kills teddy Roosevelt"
Cielo well not if I just ate his arm or something
Zhores well, then there's the blood loss
* Cielo cats Agi?
Cielo *casts
Zhores . . .
Zhores that just does more damage!
Cielo Well it could also cauterize it!
Zhores BUT IT ALSO ROASTS HIM
Zhores QUIT ROASTING THE DEAD FORMER PRESEDENT
Cielo IT'S A WEAK SPELL. TEDDY ROOSEVELT CAN TOTALY HANDLE IT
Cielo NEVER
Cielo also wrong nick to say that on
Zhores ...so. fictionally roasting a dead former president, better or worse then burning a flag?
Cielo ....probably depends on who you ask and which president
Zhores ... touché
Zhores Oh Oh Cielo! I finally know where the hell Zhores was stationed
