—Oh, right.

[sitting up and looking at the snakebite on his arm.]

Well, um. It definitely stings pretty badly, but I don't know if that means anything... Should we get Shinobu? She said she has medical training.

Yeah... It doesn't seem like they'd go to all the trouble of bringing us here only to let us wander into a room with a snake that could actually kill us, anyways.

[probably......]

Still - sorry I got you bit.

[personal profile] agleam 2022-06-07 03:23 pm (UTC)(link)
Yeah... Gonna be honest, I still have no idea why it was so stuck on us eating the pasta.

[its motivations will go unknown...]

[clearly the pasta has a deeper meaning too]

Yeah... Maybe. [a pause] Oh, but - I should introduce myself. I'm Rupert! It's nice to meet you.

[despite snake trauma]

[he pauses for a second like he's waiting for the nice to meet you, but it's only a little awkward before he moves on.]

...Okay! Cloud's a pretty cool name. [he nods.] Yeah, that was the last group I was in before this one.

[personal profile] agleam 2022-06-07 05:04 pm (UTC)(link)
Well, I like it anyways.

[trying to move past the Awkwardness! it is possibly futile. he does get a little more serious as he continues.]

...Yeah, it was. [murder...] But everyone came back in the end. Not that I'm saying that makes it okay or anything.

[personal profile] agleam 2022-06-07 05:23 pm (UTC)(link)
Yeah, I definitely agree. The alternative is... There's no way any of us would have accepted that.

[after a moment:]

Can I ask which one you were from?

[personal profile] agleam 2022-06-07 05:30 pm (UTC)(link)
Oh - actually, a few people have explained that to me... Are you from the same one as Sebastian, then?

[our multiple computer simulation mgs...]

[personal profile] agleam 2022-06-07 05:37 pm (UTC)(link)
Oh. [huh.] I guess there was more than one computer simulation, then... That seems a little weird, but maybe they're more common than I thought.

[he still only has a basic idea of what computers are in the first place.]

[personal profile] agleam 2022-06-07 05:56 pm (UTC)(link)
That's... kind of terrifying to think about!

[so. moving right along.]

I don't think he mentioned how long it was where he came from, but mine lasted about that long, too. I heard about one that was only five days, but somehow I don't think we're going to get that lucky...

[since it's day four and the npcs he's assuming will be here still haven't appeared.]

[personal profile] agleam 2022-06-07 06:05 pm (UTC)(link)
[he nods.]

Yeah, his. If there was another one that was that short, I haven't heard about it, but I also haven't asked anyone else how long they were stuck.

[personal profile] agleam 2022-06-07 06:45 pm (UTC)(link)
[he nods.]

Lup said she was in hers for about eight months, I think, but I'm getting the idea that she's a bit of a different case, since she was - in charge, kind of.

[our npcs...]

...It sounds pretty awful.

[and speaking of things that sound awful!!]

Wait - how many times? And what do you mean by resetting?
