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.
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.]
I haven't kept full track, but I'm trying to see the patterns. [ while also only kind of paying attention. look. he's not social. ] Shorter stays are rarer for the most part. Doesn't say anything good about our time here.
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.
no subject
[maybe.]
Did it bite you, too...?
no subject
... Yeah. That thing was fast. [ hrm. ] I don't know how venomous it was or not.
no subject
[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.
no subject
... It should be fine. [ he flexes his arm with a hiss ] If we were poisoned, we'd probably know right away.
[ if they die, they die, ]
no subject
[probably......]
Still - sorry I got you bit.
no subject
I wasn't that keen on listening to that snake myself anyway. Just didn't think it'd get mad this fast.
[ should have maybe not talked so loudly about how it was an evil snake, guys ]
no subject
[its motivations will go unknown...]
no subject
[ it was just noodles. ]
no subject
Yeah... Maybe. [a pause] Oh, but - I should introduce myself. I'm Rupert! It's nice to meet you.
[despite snake trauma]
no subject
no subject
...Okay! Cloud's a pretty cool name. [he nods.] Yeah, that was the last group I was in before this one.
no subject
[ the awkward continues. ]
That school the same kind of bad news as where everyone else came from?
[ aka murder school which is for murder ]
no subject
[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.
no subject
[ there is no moving past the awkwardness. cloud has never socialized in his life somehow. but he nods at that, looking serious himself ]
We got everyone back, too. Doesn't make it any better, but it's a step up from the alternative.
[ which is a shit ton of dead people. ]
no subject
[after a moment:]
Can I ask which one you were from?
no subject
Place called the Realm. It turned out to be a computer simulation. It's kind of hard to explain.
[ it was a kingdom hearts game and he suffered ]
no subject
[our multiple computer simulation mgs...]
no subject
[ cloud does not know a sebastian despite my misplaced moment of "sebastian stan is the marvel character and not the actor" ]
no subject
[he still only has a basic idea of what computers are in the first place.]
no subject
[ he does look a little baffled there were TWO. whaaat. ]
Dunno about that Sebastian guy, but the Realm lasted about eight weeks.
[ give or take a few hundred cycles ]
no subject
[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.]
no subject
[ cloud also has 0 belief they'll get that lucky but like. you know. information or whatever ]
no subject
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.
