Re: day 19

So I can tell him you volunteered him for punching practice?

Re: day 19

[despitethenora]

Of course you can. He should finish what he started, shouldn't he?

Re: day 19

[nobetawedielike]

Follow-through is the most important part!

Re: day 19

[despitethenora]

Must've heard that one from him.

Re: day 19

[nobetawedielike]

Maybe. Have you ever punched someone?

Re: day 19

[despitethenora]

Yeah, but I don’t prefer it. Tend to get further reminding people of my spear.

Re: day 19

[nobetawedielike]

[ slowly the town comes into view ]

I don't know if I could ever be intimidating enough even having a spear would ward someone off...

Re: day 19

[despitethenora]

[It's been a good walk, especially for a nerdclone.]

But the punch was going to do it?

Re: day 19

[nobetawedielike]

It'll catch them off guard, at least.

Re: day 19

[despitethenora]

Whatever it takes. Just don't try catching me.

Re: day 19

[nobetawedielike]

[ SUDDENLY VERY CONCERNED

somewhere out there airi remembers being socked by aloy and shudders ]

I'd never try to punch you!

Re: day 19

[despitethenora]

[A slight shoulder bump.]

Good. Don't forget that.

Re: day 19

[nobetawedielike]

[ bumping her back, casually: ]

Besides, I could just disable your Focus instead.

Re: day 19

[despitethenora]

Don’t do that.

[this is sort of an apology tour for disappointing beta yesterday, BUT STILL]

Re: day 19

[nobetawedielike]

I won't, I promise.

Re: day 19

[despitethenora]

[Steering her toward the movie theater.]

Bad enough that I kept ending up with spyware on it.

Re: day 19

[nobetawedielike]

Could disable Sylens's focus.

Re: day 19

[despitethenora]

Now, that I could get behind.

Re: day 19

[nobetawedielike]

I tried to code in a mute button for him.

[ the movie theater is nestled between the denny's and what would one day be the arcade that Beta is probably going to lose her mind over, taking them around the corner to finally hit the right building-- ]

Gaia said it would hamper intergroup communication.

Re: day 19

[despitethenora]

His personality hampers intergroup communication.

[When you might be becoming a friend with someone you want to stab sometimes.

Theater placement is lucky, they'll be nice and familiar with the route to Denny's.]

Re: day 19

[nobetawedielike]

Knowledge should be freely shared. He's not better than anyone else for having it when it was purposely denied to everyone else. He's just a jerk.

Re: day 19

[despitethenora]

[Beta talking shit about someone...amazing.]

Maybe he'll change his tune once he understands you know more than him.

Re: day 19

[nobetawedielike]

I'm saving informing him that a good amount of his knowledge is only at the level of older youth in the time of the Old Ones for if he's mean to Alva. It's technically true.

[ technically correct is the best kind of correct ]

Re: day 19

[despitethenora]

[If Sylens tends to know more than Aloy, and he's only at the level of "older youth," then that means Aloy's at...]

I better not think that one through.

Well, you have to tell me how he reacts when you do.

[Not if.]

Re: day 19

[nobetawedielike]

I will.

[ she skips forward to throw open the glass doors of the theater excitedly, ]

But now it's time for our delve!
