Connecting

Kaa needed reminders that not all Men sucked. Rukia showed up. A horrible cute kitten arrived in the Nexus wanting our blood pettings. Cameron McAfree asked how we wanted our stories to end, and I told him I wanted to die in bed of old age after a great round of sex. Nagi offered some advice to a girl with super abilities. It seemed like Isley Mitchell was flirting with me. I had a nice talk with yet another The Master. Girouette asked a question close to my past experience and also wanted to know what holidays we'll be celebrating. I had to explain Festivus. I answered a Doctor's question while he refused to answer mine. Lila asked whether we'd do something we knew was best for people even if they don't agree. Should you trust the alternate of someone you trust in your own place? I said no, because there are too many variations possible.

((Yohji and Sanzo faced a few difficulties at Yohji's place, of the kitten, hallucination, and youkai variety. Brody made an announcement under f'lock. Yotan and Aya celebrated their anniversary in NSFW ways, as usual.))


((At dear_mun, Proper Dave shambled through, Aya had a brief conversation with Sanzo, Ijuuin Enzan started a discussion of Ceiling Batman watching you kiss people, Cloverfield was hilariously pissed off AT MAJOR SIZE, and the Kreeptonian revealed that he'll be doing his creepy thing in a new community.))

You take your Sagely duties pretty seriously, eh?

[tastes-of-honey.livejournal.com]

I have knowledge, and it'd be a shame not to share it. So many people need to be schooled.

[bartender-tim.livejournal.com]

It sounds like less schooling and more you talking about yourself at length, but I guess that's your prerogative.

[tastes-of-honey.livejournal.com]

Indeed it is. The wonderful thing about having your own journal is that you can talk about yourself as much as you want. And people can choose whether to read it or not.

Getting a little meta in here, ain't it?

Not here, Schu-bear. Out There. In the Nexus. People ask for it, you know? It's one o' those newfangled trends the young whippersnappers have come up with, using the place as a polling zone as much as an advice column.

Not that there's anything wrong with that. Inform us of The Great and Many Wonders of Schuldig! Somebody has to, or we would never know.

One of the perils of hanging with telepaths. We have an unusual perspective on things.

People gotta socialize. Maybe there's some educational component sometimes. Maybe they're bored. It's better than nothing happening.

Just like you said. If you don't live loud a lot of people think you're invisible.

[bartender-tim.livejournal.com]

There's always something happening here. It's just a matter of knowing where to find it. Kids these days just expect the entertainment to waltz right in and do a little dance on their head. Why, I remember when we had to walk five miles, uphill, through the snow, both ways, through five universes to ask a question at the Sign...

Sometimes it does, of course, but that's not the point.

I blame video games. ::smirk::

Now when people first arrive here they're immediately directed to the PINpoints. When I first showed up those were harder to get and a lot of people were stuck in the Nexus.

Rosenkreuz and Eszett spent so many years trying to negate my existence as a person instead of just a weapon that I developed a healthy ego as self-defense. Now it's just who I am.

[bartender-tim.livejournal.com]

If you think that was bad, you should have been around before, when there weren't any and people had to rely on the portals. Talk about entertainment...

Oh, I bet. Ego on, baby.

[tastes-of-honey.livejournal.com]

Portals like me, so that wasn't a problem. A guy I know here was trapped for weeks before he found a Portal that led him home.

[bartender-tim.livejournal.com]

Eh, a little Nexus crazy is good for a person. Some people wouldn't even have given it a chance if they hadn't been forced to.

[tastes-of-honey.livejournal.com]

Some people are always more flexible than others.

Some of the people who just wanted to get the hell out of here were amusing for it. You needed more ingenuity and street smarts once.

I miss some of the old regulars who never show up anymore.

[bartender-tim.livejournal.com]

Yeah, well, you know what they say about change.

People have gotten complacent, dontcha think? Boy, would they be screwed if the PINpoints stopped working.

[tastes-of-honey.livejournal.com]

Hmm. Are you thinking aloud or foretelling the future?

[bartender-tim.livejournal.com]

Do I look like an oracle to you? Pfff.

Just sayin' it could happen.

[tastes-of-honey.livejournal.com]

Oracles aren't always obvious, and some "oracles" are people who make the future for themselves.

Uh-huh.

[bartender-tim.livejournal.com]

Isn't that the point?

I detect a hint of sarcasm. Surely you aren't implying that I would do something so sinister.

[tastes-of-honey.livejournal.com]

It's amazing what people can be capable of.

[bartender-tim.livejournal.com]

It's less a question of capability than one of inclination.

I'm not much into the electronics thing, anyway. That's what I have my boy Zero around for.
