“I’m trying to be helpful,” Sherwood replied. “I don’t want her to get hurt and Discord is nothing but trouble. I’m not trying to make an enemy of her I’m just being honest. She deserves better.”

Sabriel looks at him skeptically. “Two things. One, you don’t get to decide that for her; it’s her heart and her life. You of all people should know that you really don’t get to choose who you fall for. And he really has been good to her this far.” She pauses considering. “And second… That is not how you talk a woman out of doing something.”

“That really sounds like four things, but you combined three into the first thing.” Sherwood scrunches his face, trying to parse that. “And…I know. It’s why I haven’t bothered her about it until now. He’s got her wrapped around his finger but until now she’s seemed content so I brushed it off…mostly.”

“And in my experience? It’s impossible to talk a woman out of doing anything! It’s way easier to talk her into something.”

“Oh so like into bed with you, you mean? Oh shucks, guess I’m like every other naive little girl.” She snickers. “Do even hear the words that come out of your mouth?”

Sabriel walks over and puts her hands on his shoulders. “Look dude, you aren’t the golden boy every young maiden waits for to save her from the big bad. This isn’t a fairytale. Will you meet those kinda of girls, yeah sure, but they aren’t worth your time. Every person that’s worth knowing is perfectly capable of saving themself.”

“No! N-no, that’s not what I meant. I mean, it’s easier to talk her into doing…anything?” Sherwood blushes because he’s aware he sounds like an idiot.

“So…what are you saying? I shouldn’t help her? I’m confused.”

Sabriel stood off to the side all but unnoticed by the two, “well that might have been a little rude, Sherwood. If you are going to call me your girlfriend, you might want to at least try getting along with my friends.”

“I’m trying to be helpful,” Sherwood replied. “I don’t want her to get hurt and Discord is nothing but trouble. I’m not trying to make an enemy of her I’m just being honest. She deserves better.”

I guess I have Tai to thank for the “not so bad” thing…, But it’s probably only because I have some kind of “dampener” on my core…

But uh, I suppose it wouldn’t hurt to have someone to stick with.., Tai works all night so I don’t get to see him until later.., then he sleeps when the suns up like the rest of your kind.., Sleeping’s weird but.., I guess it’s okay….
uhm- Wait.., What were we talking about?

Figuring things out!

You talked about eating, right? Maybe we could go find something to eat! Or…what else haven’t you done?

valeofrepose:

Well, /my/ mission is to stay out of trouble and try and grow.., I’m far behind and those helping moderate my species have made /my/ top priority to not be a threat to all who live…, I have to say, /my/ mission, is “a pain in the ass”.

Meanwhile the rest of my kind get to have free reign on their lives. Get to do what they want. They don’t even treat Scribe as up-tight as they treat me. Tai says they’re just worried that history will repeat. Which… I guess is… understandable…

Oh. That seems frustrating. But you don’t seem so bad.

Maybe I can help you figure stuff out! I mean, I’m not very good at staying out of trouble, but stuff is easier when you have a group! No bat flies alone, after all. Plus, it might be better to hang out with an actual threat; I’m not super dangerous.

valeofrepose:

Hahaha! Well, I personlly don’t have a ship, my kind don’t need them, but I do know people who do. And no, “I come in peace”
I suppose my powers are “cool” and I don’t look too much different than a troll.. I usually dress differently and don’t have these silly horns your kind have But I can alter my appearance as I please.
Tai looks a lot more different than I do when he’s not a silly troll, he’s who I’m living with.

> You do not even care that he called you silly

Neat! Wow, I’ve never met an alien before, but if you’re not dangerous that means I know an alien now! And that’s so cool!

So, are you new here? Because you don’t eat or like…really sleep, right? So you must be sort of new. What are you doing here? Can I help in your big mission? Aliens always have big missions!

montythepirate:

Oh whoops pardon me~ Speaking as if I’m where I belong, whoopsie~
I’m not, as some would say, from around here, So pardon my unworldly language.

You see, an influence is what my kind is made of, A substance which we master and alter. As for myself, my “influence” is plague, so as you can probably understand, I have no need for organs, I merely look like your species, nothing less, nothing more.
Well no, more, MUCH more~

WOAH!
That’s the coolest thing I’ve heard all week!

So you’re like, a weird alien disguised as a troll? Are you trying to conquer the planet? Do you have cool powers?

>You are way too excited, calm down

You do a really good troll impression! Do you look different normally? OH! Do you have your own space ship? Can I see it?

valeofrepose:

Well… It’s a little more than just dietary needs.., considering I only started to sleep until recent.., and I’ve never required sustenance further than my influence.., Which unlike my friend’s, cannot be found in common food sources on planets like your own…

As for myself, I don’t know if my body can handle food, any food, considering I probably don’t have the required “organs” for eating…

What? Like, really? < o,x,o > ??
Wait, what’s an influence? Like…another troll? Like….my lusus is a good influence. Wait…
And what sort of troll doesn’t have organs?

valeofrepose:

Why does Tai eat things that are foreign to his influence.., can our kind even handle that? I know he’s more complex than I am, but…

You mean like special dietary needs? I hear that.
But I guess you never know if you don’t try, right? What’s the worst that can happen?

Kinder ==> Leave an assortment of chocolates for a bun with a note. The note has been re-written several times and most of the words have been scratched out. “DAY?” is the only legible word.

sealtrolls:

Seylia ==> Be surprised, but also quite happy, at the small gift that Kinder had left you. You’re quick to text her a thank you, and plan on what you’re going to give her as well.

==> Your text reads: “Thank you ❤ <> <3< (?) for the gift. I love it.”

Kinder ==> Look at your phone and try not to smile, blushing. You scowl just to keep the smile away. You text back, to be polite, “You’re welcome…”
