[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] ...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] Кш! Моська, залиш Гебі у спокої. Хай #спить.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:antalk,1][C:41]Анна:[C:C] З Новим роком![STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] ...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:antalk,1][C:41]Анна:[C:C] Я кажу... З Новим. Роком![STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] ...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:antalk,1][C:41]Анна:[C:C] *кхм* Я сказала... З НО~[STOPLIP:]
[XS:minicg,1][XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] Я тебе з першого разу почула.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:antalk,1][C:41]Анна:[C:C] Так відповіла б одразу, навіщо #знущатися, га?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] Ти вторглася у мій дім і ще #скаржишся?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:antalk,1][C:41]Анна:[C:C] Я не вторгалася, я тут просто #з'явилася.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] А значить, вторглася.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:antalk,1][C:41]Анна:[C:C] Щоб вторгнутися, мені потрібно було б #зробити десь вхід у твій дім. А я тут #просто з'явилась.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] І як же ти це зробила?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:antalk,1][C:41]Анна:[C:C] Ой, треба ж! Ти зі мною тепер вголос #розмовляєш![STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] Не ухиляйся від відповіді![STOPLIP:]
[XS:antalk,1][C:41]Анна:[C:C] Я рада, що ти не продовжуєш #робити з себе телепата.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] Але телепат з нас двох ти.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:antalk,1][C:41]Анна:[C:C] Але я не вмію читати думки. Втім, я #вмію читати букви.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] ?..[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] Ні, я к тому, що я не вмію читати #думки, то ж я...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] Ай, забудь.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] Так нащо ти тут?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:antalk,1][C:41]Анна:[C:C] Хотіла побажати тобі щасливого Нового #року.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] Тобто тебі було просто нудно.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:antalk,1][C:41]Анна:[C:C] То, що мні нудно, не має ніякого #відношення до мого прагнення побажати тобі #щасливих свят.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] Але все ж таки допомагає тобі впоратися#з нудьгою.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:antalk,1][C:41]Анна:[C:C] Не можу заперечувати.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:antalk,1][C:41]Анна:[C:C] Та все ж, ти заслуговуєш привітань, #Джо![STOPLIP:]
[XS:antalk,1][C:41]Анна:[C:C] Ти закрила стару главу свого життя та #стала мудрішою![STOPLIP:]
[XS:antalk,1][C:41]Анна:[C:C] Це завжди заслуговує на похвалу. Та й #взагалі, давай вип'ємо за це![STOPLIP:]
[XS:antalk,1][C:41]Анна:[C:C] Не проти, якщо я візьму пиво?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] Взагалі-то, проти. Не хочу потім #відмивати його від підлоги.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:antalk,1][C:41]Анна:[C:C] Але ти ж не знаєш, що з пивом #саме так й буде![STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] Повірь мені, я знаю точно.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:antalk,1][C:41]Анна:[C:C] А як же то-о-о-ост...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] Давай просто зупинимося на тому, що #ти за мене рада.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:antalk,1][C:41]Анна:[C:C] Гаразд, гаразд.[STOPLIP:]
[SHOW:0,codec_fore][XS:antalk,1][C:41]Анна:[C:C] О! Привіт, кицю![STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] До речі, а Моська тебе бачить?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:codechide,1][XS:antalk,1][C:41]Анна:[C:C] А хрін їх, кішок, знає.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:antalk,1][C:41]Анна:[C:C] Вона може бачить мене, а може просто #вилупилася на хмаринку пилу на місті мене.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:antalk,1][C:41]Анна:[C:C] Джо, а давай пограємо![STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] У що?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:antalk,1][C:41]Анна:[C:C] «Правда чи правда».[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] Тобто, «Правда чи дія»?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:antalk,1][C:41]Анна:[C:C] Ні, не думаю, що мені є сенс #загадувати дію.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:antalk,1][C:41]Анна:[C:C] Ми просто будемо ставити одина одній #запитання та відповідати обов'язково правду.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:antalk,1][C:41]Анна:[C:C] У тебе навіть з'явиться дорогоцінна #можливість вибору репліки в діалозі! #Хіба це не чудово?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] Що-що буде?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:antalk,1][C:41]Анна:[C:C] Просто думки вголос, не звертай #уваги.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] Гаразд...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] Ти обіцяєш, ще не будеш брехати?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:antalk,1][C:41]Анна:[C:C] Я ніколи не брешу.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] ...гаразд. Давай зіграємо.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:antalk,1][C:41]Анна:[C:C] Чудово! Ти починаєш.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] Хм...[XS:ph,2][E:2][STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] Просто от... Що ти возагалі таке?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:antalk,1][C:41]Анна:[C:C] Мила дівчинка![STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] Я не це мала на увазі.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:antalk,1][C:41]Анна:[C:C] Ну, я з сім'ї католиків, хоча сама #не релігійна.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] Це також.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:antalk,1][C:41]Анна:[C:C] А ще я лєзба, і мені дуже подопаються #дівчата.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] М-да, мені варто було раніше зрозуміти, що ти #не сприймаєш це питання серйозно.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:antalk,1][C:41]Анна:[C:C] Ага. Але якщо у мене просто нема #інших відповідей?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] Тобто?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:antalk,1][C:41]Анна:[C:C] Є речі, які я знаю про себе.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:antalk,1][C:41]Анна:[C:C] Але те, чому я ось така, яка є, #до них не відноситься.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:antalk,1][C:41]Анна:[C:C] Я виписалась з лікарні, а потім мене #чимось сбило і... от.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:antalk,1][C:41]Анна:[C:C] Чому я зараз в такому стані #самій хотілося б дізнатись.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] ...Вибач, якщо я здалась грубой.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:antalk,1][C:41]Анна:[C:C] Ти така ж чарівна, як і завжди, #Джо.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] ...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:antalk,1][C:41]Анна:[C:C] Добре, моя черга. Тобі подобається твоя #начальниця?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] Подобається.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:antalk,1][C:41]Анна:[C:C] Ні, я про те, що... вона тобі #ПОДОБАЄТЬСЯ?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] М-м-м...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:antalk,1][C:41]Анна:[C:C] Уяви, що ви вдвох на #романтичній вечері. Й атмосфера підходяща.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:antalk,1][C:41]Анна:[C:C] Ти б сказала, що любиш її?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] Ну...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:antalk,1][C:41]Анна:[C:C] Атмосфера загострюється! Ви вдвох у #кімнаті, голі. Ви займетесь сексом?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] Эм...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:antalk,1][C:41]Анна:[C:C] Ну звідки раптом така невпевненість?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] Тому що ти застала меня зненацька.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:antalk,1][C:41]Анна:[C:C] Ні, діло не в тому...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:antalk,1][C:41]Анна:[C:C] Джо, тобі справді подобається твоя #начальниця в цьому сенсі?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] Ну так...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:antalk,1][C:41]Анна:[C:C] Добре. Тепер уявимо, що тобі #випав шанс зайнятися сексом з блондинистими #цицьками у светрі. [STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] Постараюсь не проґавити його.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:antalk,1][C:41]Анна:[C:C] Ну і куди у цей раз ділась уся твоя #стислість?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] ...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:antalk,1][C:41]Анна:[C:C] ...Не можу повірити, що у тебе просто #підліткова закоханість у свого боса.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] Але це не...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:antalk,1][C:41]Анна:[C:C] Вона тобі подобається, ти її кохаєш, але #тормозиш, коли діло доходить до потрахушок.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:antalk,1][C:41]Анна:[C:C] Ти захоплюєшся нєю, хочеш, щоб вона #була з тобою, але далі не йдеш. [STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] Так. Це називається «дружба».[STOPLIP:]
[XS:antalk,1][C:41]Анна:[C:C] На підставі підліткової закоханості.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] ...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:antalk,1][C:41]Анна:[C:C] Гаразд, давай перейдемо до наступного #питання, поки ти ще тримаєшся.[XS:ph,3][E:3][STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] Скажи, яка частина, розказаної тобою #історії правда?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:antalk,1][C:41]Анна:[C:C] Дивлячись яку історію ти маєш на увазі.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] Ту, що ти розповіла пару тижнів #тому, коли вперше зайшла в бар.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] Ти розповіла про лікарню. Скільки зі сказаного тобою було правдою?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:antalk,1][C:41]Анна:[C:C] А ти як думаєш?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] Це не відповідь.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:antalk,1][C:41]Анна:[C:C] Я можу сказати, що це була правда від початку й до кінця, але це також може #бути брехнею.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:antalk,1][C:41]Анна:[C:C] Правда залежить або від фактів, або від довіри.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:antalk,1][C:41]Анна:[C:C] І беручи до уваги те, що питання передбачає #відсутність будь-якої довіри, залишається покладатися на факти.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:antalk,1][C:41]Анна:[C:C] І я думаю, що ти знаеш достатньо фактів, щоб сформувати власну думку #про те, що з цієї історії правда.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] ...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:antalk,1][C:41]Анна:[C:C] Ти мені справді подобаєшся, Джо. Але твоя недовіра ранить мене у саме сердце.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] ...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] Просто постав уже своє питання.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:antalk,1][C:41]Анна:[C:C] Чим ти будеш заниматися, коли бар #закриється?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] ...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] Я придивляюсь до іншого бару, про #який мні Бос розповідала.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] Далеченько, але добратися можна.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:antalk,1][C:41]Анна:[C:C] Зараз перефразую запитання.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:antalk,1][C:41]Анна:[C:C] Ти збираєшься до кінця свого життя #бути барменом?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:antalk,1][C:41]Анна:[C:C] Це твоє покликання?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] Не знаю.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:antalk,1][C:41]Анна:[C:C] Закриття бару це шанс для тебе взяти #життя в свої руки. Зайнятися тим, чим ти #хочеш.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:antalk,1][C:41]Анна:[C:C] У тебе є якась мрія, яку ти хотіла б втілити в життя?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] Не знаю.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:antalk,1][C:41]Анна:[C:C] І тебе це незнання не турбує?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] Так і є.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:antalk,1][C:41]Анна:[C:C] Як це?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] Все, про що я у житті шкодую, вилилось #саме з таких переживань.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] Але я зрозуміла, що бігти кудись без #цілі ще гірше.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] І потім, для мене все нормально #складається, поки я вирішую проблеми по мірі їх виникнення.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] Тому цим курсом я й буду йдти, #допоки не зрозумію, чим я хочу #займатися.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:antalk,1][C:41]Анна:[C:C] Ти ж розумієш, що я тут вислуховую #тебе, стараюсь? А ось твоя напускна #розсудливість ні у що не виллється.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] Ну і похуй тоді.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] Тепер я тебе запитую, так?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:antalk,1][C:41]Анна:[C:C] Ага.[XS:ph,3][E:4][STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] Добре. Чому тільки я тебе бачу?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:antalk,1][C:41]Анна:[C:C] Не будь такою наївною. Ти не #єдина.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:antalk,1][C:41]Анна:[C:C] Просто у тебе нема знайомих серед тих, #хто теж мене бачить.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] І все ж, чому?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:antalk,1][C:41]Анна:[C:C] Сама не знаю, чому так.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:antalk,1][C:41]Анна:[C:C] Втім, у мене є одна теорія.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:antalk,1][C:41]Анна:[C:C] Може, мене бачать тільки ті люди, для #кого я сама хочу бути видимою?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] Як це?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:antalk,1][C:41]Анна:[C:C] Коли я зайшла в бар і вперше тебе #побачила, я помітила, що ти мила.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:antalk,1][C:41]Анна:[C:C] Може, я просто так сильно захотіла, #щоб ти мене побачила, що так це й #сталося.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:antalk,1][C:41]Анна:[C:C] Чесно кажучи, мені було складно приховати #своє здивування з цього приводу.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:antalk,1][C:41]Анна:[C:C] Я намагалася зробити так, щоб деякі #люди мене бачили, але, схоже, щось мене #тоді стримувало.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] Тобто, ти силою думки все це робиш?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:antalk,1][C:41]Анна:[C:C] Це лише теорія. У мене нема серйозних #підстав, щоб казати, що саме так воно і є.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:antalk,1][C:41]Анна:[C:C] Втім, Бетт мене теж бачить, тому...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] А хто ця Бетт?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:antalk,1][C:41]Анна:[C:C] Дуже мила дівчина.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:antalk,1][C:41]Анна:[C:C] До речі про милих дівок, що такого #крутого в твоєму босі?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] Тобто?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:antalk,1][C:41]Анна:[C:C] Чому ти так сильно від неї прешся?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] *кхм*[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] Ну, вона така... сильна, розумієш?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] Не тільки фізично, а ще й морально![STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] Наполеглива, надійна, харизматична, #з нею весело...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] Вона володіє усіма тими якостями, #яких я позбавлена. З нею відчуваєш себе у безпеці.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] Хіба по ній цього не видно?![STOPLIP:]
[XS:antalk,1][C:41]Анна:[C:C] Гадаю, я не достатньо з нею спілкувалась.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:antalk,1][C:41]Анна:[C:C] Божечки, а ти прямо завелася, я дивлюсь.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] Напевне.[XS:ph,4][E:5][STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] А у тебе було якесь хобі?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:antalk,1][C:41]Анна:[C:C] Не переходь на минулий час.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] Эм... У тебе є якесь хобі?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:antalk,1][C:41]Анна:[C:C] Ну, коли у мене ще було тіло, я #полюбляла настільні ігри.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] Да ну?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:antalk,1][C:41]Анна:[C:C] Так, типу коли ти когось валиш на #стіл, раздвигаєш їй ноги і...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] Доволі дивний спосіб гри у #«Монополію».[STOPLIP:]
[XS:antalk,1][C:41]Анна:[C:C] Все що завгодно заради алеї Афіни.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:antalk,1][C:41]Анна:[C:C] Але єдине, що мені по-справжньому #подобалось, це розіграші. Принаймні, #з того, що я пам'ятаю.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] Та ну.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:antalk,1][C:41]Анна:[C:C] Так весело спостерігати за реакцією #людей.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:antalk,1][C:41]Анна:[C:C] Підстави, омани, стравлювання...#Це як мистецтво.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] Ага...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:antalk,1][C:41]Анна:[C:C] Звісно ж, у мене були деякі #межі.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:antalk,1][C:41]Анна:[C:C] Якщо я знаю, що можу довести людиу #до сліз, то ні в якому разі не буду її #розігрувати.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:antalk,1][C:41]Анна:[C:C] Або якщо розіграш може бути небезпечним #для життя.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:antalk,1][C:41]Анна:[C:C] І якщо це завдає клопоту надто багатьом #стороннім, про це теж не може бути й мови.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] Звучить доволі... розумно.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:antalk,1][C:41]Анна:[C:C] Звісно, розіграші гарні, тільки якщо #жартівник сам отримає від них задоволення.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:antalk,1][C:41]Анна:[C:C] В іншому випадку це просто #хуліганство.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] А ти шкодуєш про якийсь зі своїх #жартів?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:antalk,1][C:41]Анна:[C:C] У молодшій школі я сховала бджолу в #рюкзаці одного хлопчика... А він виявився #алергіком.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:antalk,1][C:41]Анна:[C:C] Нічого страшного не трапилось, але... #так, я шкодую.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:antalk,1][C:41]Анна:[C:C] Так, моя черга![STOPLIP:]
[XS:antalk,1][C:41]Анна:[C:C] Як пройшла вечірка? Я була зайнята.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] Ти? Зайнята?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:antalk,1][C:41]Анна:[C:C] Так, а що, у мене не може бути своїх #справ?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:antalk,1][C:41]Анна:[C:C] Ну, я застала ту важливу розмову та #історію про огіро...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] *бхкмп*[STOPLIP:]
[XS:antalk,1][C:41]Анна:[C:C] Але це так, під час перерви між іншими справами.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] А зараз це ще одина перерва?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:antalk,1][C:41]Анна:[C:C] Ні, це заслужений відпочинок.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] Рада за тебе.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] А вечірка була веселою. Не адовий #угарчік, звичайно, а так... Душевно, коротше.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] Їжа, випивка, друзі... пара собак.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] Бос ледь не спалила бар к хуям #своїми «абсолютно легальными феєрверками».[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] Джил привів свою дічину. Я все ще #не можу повірити, ким вона виявилася.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] Дороті теж привела своїх знайомих. #Хороші хлопці... хіба що занадто #помітні.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] Ми з Альмою...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] ...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:antalk,1][C:41]Анна:[C:C] Що? Ви з цицьками у светрі ЩО?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] Та нічого. Просто я зрозуміла, як #приємно це казати. Розуміти, що у мене #є друзі.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:antalk,1][C:41]Анна:[C:C] ...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:antalk,1][C:41]Анна:[C:C] Чорт, це якась занадто банальна фраза [STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] І все ж таки так воно і є.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] Тоді я вперше відчула, що #дружба вона... існує.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] Що є люди, яким я довіряю. Є #люди, які довіряють мені.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] Люди поза моєю сім'єю, про яких я можу #піклуватися.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] Це таке чудове відчуття...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:antalk,1][C:41]Анна:[C:C] Як я й казала, хрінові фразочки з мелодрам.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:antalk,1][C:41]Анна:[C:C] ...До речі, а мене ти вважаєш другом, #Джо?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] Мо-о-ожливо? Поживемо побачимо.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:antalk,1][C:41]Анна:[C:C] Хе-хех...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:antalk,1][C:41]Анна:[C:C] ...Ні, ну серйозно, чим ви там з #блондоцицьками займались?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] Фоткались.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:antalk,1][C:41]Анна:[C:C] НУ-У-УДЬГА-А-А.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:antalk,1][C:41]Анна:[C:C] Голенькі фоткались?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] Ні.
[XS:antalk,1][C:41]Анна:[C:C] ЩЕ БІЛЬШАА СКУШНА НУ-У-УДЬГА![STOPLIP:]
[XS:antalk,1][C:41]Анна:[C:C] Гаразд, наступне питання.[XS:ph,5][E:6][STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] Що ж. Що ти любиш?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:antalk,1][C:41]Анна:[C:C] Дівчин. Хлопці огидні.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] Не могу сказати, що це неправильна #відповідь, але я не про це я хотіла почути.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:antalk,1][C:41]Анна:[C:C] Тобто, Що я люблю взагалі?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] Угу.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:antalk,1][C:41]Анна:[C:C] Ну...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:antalk,1][C:41]Анна:[C:C] Люблю піцу с горою грибочків.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:antalk,1][C:41]Анна:[C:C] Люблю панчохи, які йдуть по самі #стегна.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:antalk,1][C:41]Анна:[C:C] Люблю довге волосся, хоча сама ношу #коротку зачіску.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:antalk,1][C:41]Анна:[C:C] Люблю маленьких звірят. Хоча, #гігантських тварин люблю ще більше.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:antalk,1][C:41]Анна:[C:C] І мене прям РЕАЛЬНО ПРЕ від квіткових #парфюмів.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:antalk,1][C:41]Анна:[C:C] Не люблю опудала, як би #дивно це не звучало.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:antalk,1][C:41]Анна:[C:C] Люблю високих дівок, щоб як #мінімум вище мене.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:antalk,1][C:41]Анна:[C:C] Ще мні подобається запах свіжоскошеної #трави.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:antalk,1][C:41]Анна:[C:C] Муркотіння кішечки люблю.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:antalk,1][C:41]Анна:[C:C] Люблю сміятися та смішити людей.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:antalk,1][C:41]Анна:[C:C] І, звичайно ж, ти мені подобаєшся, інакше #б мене тут не було.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] Вичерпний список.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:antalk,1][C:41]Анна:[C:C] До речі, а тобі подобається те, що ти #бачиш?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] ...що, перепрошую?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:antalk,1][C:41]Анна:[C:C] Тобі подобається те, що ти бачиш перед #собою? Якщо б ти побачила мене на вулиці, ти #б до мене підкатила?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] Вот у цьому сумніваюсь.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:antalk,1][C:41]Анна:[C:C] Брешеш, я ж бачу.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] Я б не стала брехати.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:antalk,1][C:41]Анна:[C:C] Брехушка. Я ж сексі.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] Я цього й не заперечую. Я лиш говорю, #що я не підкатила б.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:antalk,1][C:41]Анна:[C:C] Чому?![STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] Для початку, я не з тих, хто клеїтся до #незнайомок на вулиці.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] Не кажучи вже про те, щоб клеїтися до #дівчинки в довбаній матросці.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:antalk,1][C:41]Анна:[C:C] Ніби ти б не трахнула дівчину у #матросці.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] Ти до того, що...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:antalk,1][C:41]Анна:[C:C] Я до чого завгодно, що може таїться #під цією фразою.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:antalk,1][C:41]Анна:[C:C] Гарад, давай перефразую...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:antalk,1][C:41]Анна:[C:C] У мене б вийшло зробити так, щоб #ти витріщилась на мене так сильно, що не #змогла б відвести погляд?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] Так. Задоволена?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:antalk,1][C:41]Анна:[C:C] Дуже.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:antalk,1][C:41]Анна:[C:C] Ні, серйозно, так щаслива, що #дозволю тобі спитати ще чогось.[XS:ph,5][E:7][STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] Ти шкодуєш про щось?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:antalk,1][C:41]Анна:[C:C] Хіба кожен з нас не шкодує про #щось?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] Ну, може, щось конкретне #у тебе є на думці? Те, що ти реально #хочеш виправити?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:antalk,1][C:41]Анна:[C:C] ...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:antalk,1][C:41]Анна:[C:C] ...Моя мати.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:antalk,1][C:41]Анна:[C:C] Батько покинув нас, і коли я померла, я #дуже хвилювалась через те, що залишила #її одну.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:antalk,1][C:41]Анна:[C:C] На щастя, я зустріла Беккі.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:antalk,1][C:41]Анна:[C:C] Ех, правда, тоді Беккі боялась, що її #присутність може зробити моїй мамі ще #болючіше.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:antalk,1][C:41]Анна:[C:C] Думаю, мені варто подякувати тобі за #те, що поговорила з нею.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:antalk,1][C:41]Анна:[C:C] Вона налагодила свої відношення з моєю #мамою.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:antalk,1][C:41]Анна:[C:C] Мати Ланетт теж змогла закрити цю #главу свого життя.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:antalk,1][C:41]Анна:[C:C] І все завдяки тобі.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] Дрібниці.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:antalk,1][C:41]Анна:[C:C] Та все ж, з Беккі поряд з мамою, я навіть #не можу більше нічого такого придумати.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:antalk,1][C:41]Анна:[C:C] Усе інше цілком звичайні косяки, #шрами, з якими ми всі зростаємо далі.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:antalk,1][C:41]Анна:[C:C] Просто те, чого ми не можемо #виправити...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:antalk,1][C:41]Анна:[C:C] ...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:antalk,1][C:41]Анна:[C:C] ...Слухай, Джо, а ти тоді набрехала цій #Гебі?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] З приводу?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:antalk,1][C:41]Анна:[C:C] З приводу того, що будеш завжди з #нею, що би не трапилося і все таке.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] Ні, не брехала.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:antalk,1][C:41]Анна:[C:C] Врна спить. І в будь-якому разі не може #мене чути. Так що можеш бути зі мною #щирою.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] ...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] Гаразд, скажу тобі правду.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:antalk,1][C:41]Анна:[C:C] М-м?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] Тільки між нами...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] ...Я ніскільки не збрехала.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:antalk,1][C:41]Анна:[C:C] Хех.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] Увесь час, що я провела з Ленор, я #також була і з Гебі.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] Ленор виховувала її практично самотужки, тому Гебі завжди була з нами.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] Ми разом грали, разом читали, #разом дивилися тєлєк...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] Не знаю, вона завжди була як молодша #сестра... або як донька.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] І коли Гебі прийшла вперше у бар, #мене більше всього ранила її ненависть до #мене.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] ...Коли хтось, кого ти кохаєш, раптом #починає тебе ненавидіти, при тому за діло, #це завжди боляче.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] Так що так, чого я раптом повинна #брехати їй про це?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:antalk,1][C:41]Анна:[C:C] Я рада це чути від тебе. Правда.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:antalk,1][C:41]Анна:[C:C] Вона мила, вона виросте славною #дівчиною.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:antalk,1][C:41]Анна:[C:C] А її сестра теж була миленька?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] Ленор була дуже своєрідна.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:antalk,1][C:41]Анна:[C:C] Значить, я повинна побачити її #своїми очима.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:antalk,1][C:41]Анна:[C:C] Ще питання?[XS:ph,4][E:8][STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] Як довго ти збираєшся їбати мені #мізки?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:antalk,1][C:41]Анна:[C:C] Вони у тебе досить прививабливі, але #почала б я все-таки з інших місць.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] А ти взагалі спроможна фізично #щось зробити у даному напрамку?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:antalk,1][C:41]Анна:[C:C] Було б цікаво це дізнатися, #правда ж?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] Докучаєш мені, стебешся, з'являєшся #на рівному місці.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] Ти так і будеш продовжувати це #робити?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:antalk,1][C:41]Анна:[C:C] Я можу відповісти тобі, але спочатку ти #відповіси мені на одне запитання.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] Яке?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:antalk,1][C:41]Анна:[C:C] Ти ненавидиш мене, Джо?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] Ти, здається, вже втретє це #питаєш, так?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:antalk,1][C:41]Анна:[C:C] Напевне. Я просто ще не #почула достатньо чіткої відповіді.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] ...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] Через тебе я вилила на підлогу декілька #коктейлей, які потім вирахували з моєї #зарплатні.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:antalk,1][C:41]Анна:[C:C] Ти що, все ще дуєшся через це?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] Мені тоді дуже хотілось каррі, але #твоя виходка залишила мене без грошей.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] А ще через твої жарти я занадто #часто виглядала дурою.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] Не кажучи вже про те, що саме твоє #існування дає мні немало приводів #засумніватися у своїй адекватності.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] Якщо ти просто галюцинація, значить, #я божеволію. А це не дуже добре.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] А якщо ні, то це відкриває переді #мною зовсім інший ряд проблем.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] Якщо ти привид, то вченим є про #що задуматись.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] А якщо ти... щось ще, то що? Як? #Чому? Навіщо? Якого біса взагалі?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:antalk,1][C:41]Анна:[C:C] ...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] А ще ти бачиш в усьому натяки та #часто можеш бути занадто пошлою.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:antalk,1][C:41]Анна:[C:C] Продовжуй...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] Але... У мене нема приводу тебу #ненавидіти.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] Твоя поведінка не відрізняється від багатьох #інших завсідників нашого бару.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] Та й говорити з тобою весело... #в доволі збоченому сенсі, правда.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] Мені не здається, що ти себе так поводила #щоб бути шкодою. Ти мила.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] Так що ні, я не ненавиджу тебе.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:antalk,1][C:41]Анна:[C:C] Добре, тепер я відповім на твоє запитання. #Так! Я буду й далі з тебе знущатись.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] Можеш тоді хоча б являтися мені #тільки тут, а не в барі?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:antalk,1][C:41]Анна:[C:C] Але ж тоді я не зможу знущатися з #тебе в полній мірі, чи не так?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] ...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:antalk,1][C:41]Анна:[C:C] Рада чути, що ти не ненавидиш #мене![STOPLIP:]
[XS:antalk,1][C:41]Анна:[C:C] З тобою весело, і я б засмутилась, #якби так сильно дратувала тебе.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] Але все ж випробувати долю не варто.[XS:ph,8][E:9][STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] Гаразд, давай покінчимо з цим...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:antalk,1][C:41]Анна:[C:C] Зараз ти спитаєш, чи дивлюся я, як ти #мастурбуєш.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] А ты дивишся, як я... що... блять?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:antalk,1][C:41]Анна:[C:C] Рано чи пізно це питання обов'язково #зєявилося б у твїй голові.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:antalk,1][C:41]Анна:[C:C] І відповідь...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] Відповідь?..[STOPLIP:]
[XS:antalk,1][C:41]Анна:[C:C] ...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] Ем...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:antalk,1][C:41]Анна:[C:C] Пауза для більшого саспенсу.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] Просто відповідай.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:antalk,1][C:41]Анна:[C:C] Ні.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] Відповідай давай.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:antalk,1][C:41]Анна:[C:C] Я как раз і відповідаю, що я не смотрю, #як ти мастурбуєш.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] Ось як...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:antalk,1][C:41]Анна:[C:C] Ти що, здивована?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] Тобто після всього, що тут #відбувалось та обговорювалось, ти ще #питаєш?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:antalk,1][C:41]Анна:[C:C] Я ж розумію, що таке особистий #простір людини. Невже я справляю #настільки погане враження?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:antalk,1][C:41]Анна:[C:C] Є чітка грань між дружнім #стьобом та знущанням.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:antalk,1][C:41]Анна:[C:C] Втім, я б не відмовилася від самої #ідеї піддивитися за тобою.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] Це повинно мені лестити?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:antalk,1][C:41]Анна:[C:C] На твій розсуд.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:antalk,1][C:41]Анна:[C:C] Хоча я здивована, що ти мені віриш.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] В якийсь момент я просто здалася й #перестала шукати обман у твоїх словах.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] А ти раптово не стала жартувати про те, #як ти спостерігаєш за мною, поки я сама себе #ублажаю.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] Що наводить на думку, що це такий #момент, про який ти не стала б жартувати й, #відповідно, брехати.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:antalk,1][C:41]Анна:[C:C] ...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:antalk,1][C:41]Анна:[C:C] Ти довго думала про це, чи не так?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] Можливо.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:antalk,1][C:41]Анна:[C:C] Що ж, запитаю ще щось у тому ж #руслі...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:antalk,1][C:41]Анна:[C:C] Припустмо, що тобі випала #нагода зайнятися коханням з ким завгодно з #ким хочеш.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:antalk,1][C:41]Анна:[C:C] Тільки одна ніч, після якої у тебе #все тіло буде зводити.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:antalk,1][C:41]Анна:[C:C] Кого б ти обрала?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] Хм...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:antalk,1][C:41]Анна:[C:C] Боса?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] Я думаю...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:antalk,1][C:41]Анна:[C:C] Сисясту блондиночку?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] Помовчи секундочку.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:antalk,1][C:41]Анна:[C:C] Це не загадка Сфінкса, Джо.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] Думаю, я б обрала...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] Ти коли-небудь чула про актрису на #ім'я ГЛО-РІ-Я?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:antalk,1][C:41]Анна:[C:C] Трясця твоєї матері.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:antalk,1][C:41]Анна:[C:C] Ти теж?![STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] Що?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:antalk,1][C:41]Анна:[C:C] Я дуже довго фанатіла з ГЛО-РІ-ї.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:antalk,1][C:41]Анна:[C:C] Вона така талановита акторка. Та і як #особистість дуже харизматична.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:antalk,1][C:41]Анна:[C:C] Але, що ще важливіше, вона просто #неймовірно сексуальна![STOPLIP:]
[XS:antalk,1][C:41]Анна:[C:C] Навіть зараз, так що хвала всевишньому, #що вона не увяла, як більшість акторок.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:antalk,1][C:41]Анна:[C:C] И все ж я здивована, що з усіх ти #обрала саме її.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] Просто якщо я можу обрати кого #завгодно, тоді можу і когось незнайомого #вибрати.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:antalk,1][C:41]Анна:[C:C] Поки що.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] Поки що що?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:antalk,1][C:41]Анна:[C:C] Звідки ти знаєш, що не познайомишся #з нею незабаром?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] Справді, я ж з поп-дівою #нещодавно познайомилась, так що все може #бути.[XS:ph,5][E:10][STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] Ну а ти... коли-небудь зустрічала ще #когось, хто у такому ж стані, як і #ти?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:antalk,1][C:41]Анна:[C:C] Якому «такому стані»?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] Стані привида.[STOPLIP:]

[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] Полтергейст, біс, чума. Ти зрозуміла, про що я.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:antalk,1][C:41]Анна:[C:C] Ну нащо лаєшся...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:antalk,1][C:41]Анна:[C:C] Взагалі, я багато дидивних речей #побачила у своєму нинішньому становищі.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:antalk,1][C:41]Анна:[C:C] Наприклад, та дивна штуковина, #що постійно з'являється у мене в полі #зору.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:antalk,1][C:41]Анна:[C:C] Літає всюди і час від часу #намагається помацати мене у найцікавіших #місцях.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:antalk,1][C:41]Анна:[C:C] Але саме таких, як я, ні, не #зустрічала поки.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:antalk,1][C:41]Анна:[C:C] Хоча, враховуючи, що я навіть не знаю, #чому я ось така...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:antalk,1][C:41]Анна:[C:C] Хто знає, може вже зустрічала когось, #просто не помітила за ними чогось #незвичного.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:antalk,1][C:41]Анна:[C:C] Є один хлоп, який міг би #виявитись чимось схожим, але...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:antalk,1][C:41]Анна:[C:C] ...ні, наче, нікого такого не знаю.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] Тж ж розумієш, як напружує, #коли ти розкидуєшся такими #неоднозначними фразочками?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:antalk,1][C:41]Анна:[C:C] То були просто думки вголос, не звертай #уваги.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:antalk,1][C:41]Анна:[C:C] Гаразд, давай змінимо тему. Чим вирішила #зайнятися в новому році?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] Нічим.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:antalk,1][C:41]Анна:[C:C] Ну, це неправильно, всі ж дають собі #новорічні обіцянки. Це традиція.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:antalk,1][C:41]Анна:[C:C] Це єдине, що нагадує людям #про бажання стати краще.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:antalk,1][C:41]Анна:[C:C] І навіть якщо вони нічого для цього не #зроблять, то будуть хоча б просто говорити про #свої мрії.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:antalk,1][C:41]Анна:[C:C] Адже головне бажання, прагнення![STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] ...Ага. Але мені в голову нічого не #приходить.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:antalk,1][C:41]Анна:[C:C] Може, скинеш зайву вагу?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] У мене все гаразд з цим.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:antalk,1][C:41]Анна:[C:C] Кинути курити?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] Нізащо.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:antalk,1][C:41]Анна:[C:C] Більше спілкуватися з родичами?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] Цього й так вистачає.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:antalk,1][C:41]Анна:[C:C] Змусити твою кішку скинути вагу?[STOPLIP:]

[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] He mumbled something about holes and #pests, and asked for a couple of days off.[STOPLIP:]

[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Thank GOD. A person.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]???:[C:C] Well, as much of a person as the #designated driver can be.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] What I mean is... why are there so #many dogs?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Why dogs? Why?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]???:[C:C] Well, the Corgis created the Seifar #Toy Company and they've been doing a #great job, so...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] A company run exclusively by dogs, #really?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]???:[C:C] And a good one at that.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]???:[C:C] Their only problem is that they have #a not-so-discreet preference for hiring #Corgis exclusively.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Why?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]???:[C:C] Something about being more #comfortable around their own kind.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Are you with them?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]???:[C:C] Well, I DO prefer Corgis, but...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] No, I mean... are you working with #them?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]???:[C:C] Yeah, well, I'm only here because #the law requires at least one humanoid #on the payroll.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] (Does the law really cover #such scenarios?)[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Why take a job like this?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]???:[C:C] Because it means I'm surrounded by #Corgis all day long![STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]???:[C:C] Designated driver woes aside, it's #the closest thing to heaven![STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]???:[C:C] Although to be fair, I'm not much of #a drinker anyway.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I see. Well, to each their own. Are #you gonna drink anything?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]???:[C:C] Do you have anything non-alcoholic?[STOPLIP:]

[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Listen. I need to know. Is it really #going to be ONLY Corgis today?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Is that ALL I'm gonna do all night? #Serve the same kind of dog over and over?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]???:[C:C] The vast majority of them are #Pembroke Welsh Corgis.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]???:[C:C] There are a couple of Cardigan Welsh #Corgis. [STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]???:[C:C] But the relationship between the two #breeds is a tad... difficult, so the #Cardigans weren't invited[STOPLIP:]

[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Oh boy...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]???:[C:C] Is that a problem somehow?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] It's not really a "problem." We've #survived worse than this. [STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Like that time when an AA meeting #came here asking for non-alcoholic stuff #only.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] But, just thinking about the fact #that I'm serving drinks to dogs...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] That at some point all the choices #in my life led to me serving drinks to a #group of TALKING dogs...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] It's one of those moments that makes #you want to stop and rethink where your #life is going.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]???:[C:C] Do you perhaps not like this job?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I do! I love every second of this #job... but... DOGS![STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] It's like a fashion designer #suddenly realizing he's been designing #edible underwear.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]???:[C:C] I still don't see what your problem #is with the dogs, but I'm not going to #force the subject.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]???:[C:C] Well, I'm going to try entertaining #myself for a bit.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] The stuff for playing pool is #underneath the table.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] There are also darts in the box #next to the Jukebox.[STOPLIP:]

[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Yeah, that...[STOPLIP:]
[SHOW:185,sprite_deal][XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]???:[C:C] Are you having a premonition?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Something like that. That dog felt #uncannily familiar.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Are you bored?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]???:[C:C] Not really. I was playing with the #darts a bit ago. [STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]???:[C:C] I thought about playing pool, but all #the other clients are... thumb-challenged.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]???:[C:C] Sorry if this sounds rude, but why #was the dart box so dusty?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] You're the first person in the year #or so I've been here that has actually #played with darts.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I think even my boss forgot they #existed.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]???:[C:C] By the way, how are the dogs as #clients?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] We've had worse.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]???:[C:C] Have you had someone come in and #gnaw chairs to pieces?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Yes. She was testing out her new #mechanical teeth. She got banned from #entering any BTC bar after that.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]???:[C:C] With anecdotes like those, you'd #think serving dogs would feel totally #normal.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] You'd be wrong because even then, #we were talking about humans.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I mean, don't get me wrong. I've #served a dog or two in my time, but they #usually come in with someone...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] ...and they never talk.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]???:[C:C] Now that I think about it, are these #drinks bad for the dogs?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] NOW you worry about that?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] But no, they aren't. Only Cappuccino #Monkeys are at risk if they drink those #chemicals.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Anyway, you want anything to drink?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]???:[C:C] Surprise me. But keep it #non-alcoholic.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Sure.[XS:ph,12][XS:mix,1][E:16][STOPLIP:]
[RES:][XS:mix,0][XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Here you go.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]???:[C:C] Thank you.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] This might sound weird to ask #but... they talk through their collars, #right?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]???:[C:C] That's right.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] How do they work?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]???:[C:C] It's not too hard, really. They're #just translators.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]???:[C:C] They read the dogs' brains and turn #their thoughts into words.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]???:[C:C] Do keep in mind that today's dog #breeds have more cognitive capacity #than their ancestors.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]???:[C:C] If you put the translators on dogs #from a decade ago, they wouldn't work #like they do now.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Yeah, I read something about that #once.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Another question: Why do they wear #those small tuxedos?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]???:[C:C] It's good for PR.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] You don't say...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]???:[C:C] Well, it'll be a bit before we go #for the day. Any other questions?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Yes. Why the fuck do these dogs want #to get drunk?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]???:[C:C] They see humans do it and they think #it might be fun.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Just like teens, then.[STOPLIP:]

[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] So... what exactly do you do? Sorry #if it's rude to ask.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]???:[C:C] I guess I am what people call an #Office Boy.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]???:[C:C] My duties usually involve looking #for things, answering a few calls, that #sort of stuff.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]???:[C:C] But this being a dog-run company, #there are a lot more responsibilities.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]???:[C:C] Like, getting stuff off of shelves #and opening windows.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]???:[C:C] At least they pay well.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I see.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] And how did you end up in that #position? Where did you get that offer?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]???:[C:C] My neighbour is the owner of #one of the dogs. He told me they #needed "thumbs".[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Figures.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] They are celebrating the company's #anniversary, right?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]???:[C:C] Yeah. 5 years ago, three Corgis #became dissatisfied with the quality of #existing dog toys.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]???:[C:C] So they founded this #company.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]???:[C:C] They got the money from their #owners, if I remember correctly.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I can see that happening... somehow.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]???:[C:C] The STC is the second biggest dog #toy company in the world.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]???:[C:C] Fun fact: they started as Seifar Toy #Development.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Ain't that unfortunate...[STOPLIP:]

[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] It's also run by dogs.[STOPLIP:]

[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Because that's the kind of stuff you #should just assume.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] A target board usually comes with #a set of darts.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Do you like darts, Boss?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:danaface,worry][XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] Not particularly, but now I owe an #apology to someone.[STOPLIP:]

[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] You sure you know what a beer is?[STOPLIP:]

[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] May I ask what do you do for #these dogs, Miss... um...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] Beatrice, but everyone calls me #Betty.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] And why do you need to know that?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] If you've been stuck with dogs all #day, you'd also be curious when a human #walks in.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] Fair enough. I'm their veterinarian.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] They're all your clients?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] Yeah, company-issued vet.[STOPLIP:]

[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] Sorry, not in the mood for puns #right now.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I'll... keep it in mind.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Anything else I might need to avoid #bringing up around you besides puns?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettyface,][XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] Enhancements, but that's harder to #shove into the conversation in the first #place.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Noted.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] What do you have against #enhancements anyway?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] They're unnatural! They go against #the very idea of human evolution.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Hm...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] But there's a certain... wall that #humans can't cross without enhancements.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] It's not like having something #replaced will automatically make you an #expert in things.[STOPLIP:]

[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] They just wanted to bypass all the #practice needed.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] And so, they hired this shady #character who would supposedly hook #them up.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] I only talked one of them out of #it.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] The others went off with the guy #and got their hands chopped off.[STOPLIP:]

[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] Two lost their hands, one was left #an arthritic mess, and the last died on #the operation table.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] So, yeah. I'm not too fond of #enhancements.[STOPLIP:]

[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] Um... this is not what I asked for.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] But it's a gift. It would be rude #of me to criticise it.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Err... yeah.[XS:ph,23][XS:mix,0][E:35][STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Hey, what made you become a #veterinarian?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] I lo-o-o-ove animals.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] They are so cute, so funny, so... #so... HUGGABLE.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] I want to keep them happy. That's #why I became a veterinarian.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] It's not always easy...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] But the knowledge that I've helped #these cute, cuddly, squishy animals lets #me sleep like a baby at night.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Lovely.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] Speaking of love, have you ever #been in love, Rand Berte?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Haven't we all been in love at some #point in our lives? Why?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] I need advice and you look like a #nice person.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Um... sure, thanks.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] Um... actually, it's about someone #who is really focused on his job, so I #figured you'd understand.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I see. Still, what do you need to #know?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] How do you get the attention of #someone like that? [STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] Of someone that's so hyper-focused #on something he disregards everything #else?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Um... taking an interest in whatever #he's obsessed with is a good start. But, #there's really no science to this.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Make him feel loved and special. #Just like you would do with anyone #else.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] You sure? He's, like, really, #really, REALLY obsessed...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] If he's a decent member of society? #Yeah! I see no problem with that.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] I hope you're right.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] I'm fresh off a break up and #I seriously need a hug.[STOPLIP:]

[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] ...beg your pardon?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] I'm not into guys, but this here #is a guy. What do I do?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Uh...[STOPLIP:]

[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] No need. We're leaving~[STOPLIP:]

[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Yeah, not like I'm THAT busy, #though...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Fucking dogs...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Anyways, you want anything to drink?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] No, some dogs gave me drinks #already. I'm fine.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Oh, alright.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] Say, Bartender, do you like your #job?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Hm?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] I mean, you're not like the usual #crop of bartenders.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] The kind who are always making a #big show at a disco or rave party.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Why does everybody keep saying that?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] *ahem*[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Hey, why are you working as a #veterinarian?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] If you wanna change the subject #you can just say so.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I just did.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] Fine...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] I'm a veterinarian because if I #don't do it, who will?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] I don't trust other vets. I don't #feel they are actually cut for the job, #so I took it upon myself to do it.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] That's... quite the ambition.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] Speaking of ambition, did you start #working here because this is what you #wanted since high school or something?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] That's a whole new can of worms I #don't want to open... but no.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Life took me here, basically.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Why the question?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] I thought we were exchanging life #stories with each other.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] I was also thinking about the whole #risk versus reward thing.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] These dogs made me an offer just #as I graduated.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] Sometimes, I wonder if I'd have #been better off taking bigger risks.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] You know, the whole "safe position #versus big bet" kind of deal.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] If you're comfortable with the #opportunity you've been given, take it. [STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] If it's something that's been #bothering you for a while, scratch that #itch![STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] Wow, you should be a counsellor.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Nah, it's just cheap advice.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Well, I have to take care of the #dogs. Excuse me for a bit.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] Actually, we're about to leave #already.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Oh, really?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] Yeah. Thank you for everything.[STOPLIP:][XS:bettyhide,1]

[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] You might wanna get some insecticide #or something to make sure we're not full #of fleas.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] What does the health inspector think #of this stunt?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] The health inspector is too afraid #to come to this part of the city, so I'll #assume he's fine with it.[STOPLIP:]

[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] For starters, there's the fact #she only told me we were being booked #moments before we opened.[STOPLIP:]

[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] It's a lot of etiquette and #regulation work. Most of our time, #though, is actually spent in simulations.[STOPLIP:]

[XS:radtalk,1][C:57]Third Barkday:[C:C] You might be right...[XS:radhide,1][XS:ph,8][XS:mix,0][E:13][STOPLIP:]
[RES:][XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Here.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:radtalk,1][C:57]Third Barkday:[C:C] *sigh*[XS:radhide,1][STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] (Well, that made me feel guilty.)[XS:ph,8][XS:mix,0][E:14][STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] Man, you should've seen the cutie I #saw yesterday on the way home.[STOPLIP:]
[SHOW:120,sprite_betty][SHOW:280,sprite_deal][XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] She looked like a Cat Boomer. She #was wearing a mini-dress, and had this #prosthetic eye...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Deal:[C:C] I thought you were against people #using prosthetics.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] I'm not against cute, though.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettyface,sigh][XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] Besides, I'm not against #prosthetics. I'm only against #enhancements.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Deal:[C:C] I don't see a difference between the #two.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettyface,][XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] Alright, let me put it this way.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] If you lost an arm and replaced it #with a mechanical arm that does exactly #what the older one did, I'm okay with it.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] But if you lost your arm and #replaced it with a gun-loaded super #arm from hell...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] That's something I'm not okay with.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] Even worse is if you decide to replace #your arm because of fashion, or a whim, #or to get better at some sport. [STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] That's completely not cool.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] That's the difference between a #prosthetic and an enhancement. #Replacement versus, er, enhancement...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] I'm of a similar opinion about #Lilim replacing their factory parts for #kicks.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] If you think that's going to be an #easy way of getting better at something, #you're in for a bad surprise.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Deal:[C:C] Well, I can see why you think that, #but... what suggested to you that what #she had wasn't an enhancement?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Deal:[C:C] If she had bad eyesight, wouldn't #that count as an enhancement? Even if it #fixes it?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Deal:[C:C] How does reparative work factor into #your ideologies?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Deal:[C:C] They might be enhancements, but they #also replace something faulty.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettyface,grumpy][XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] Well... uh...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] Dammit. Stop making sense, you piece #o' scrap.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettyface,sigh][XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] You're weakening my resolve.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Having fun?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Deal:[C:C] Oh, bartender. That was fast.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] There seem to be less dogs out #today - at least, dogs that want a #drink.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Deal:[C:C] Yeah... some of them ate their #tickets.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] *sigh* Lovely. I'll be the one #dealing with that later.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettyface,][XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] Say, what's your take on the whole #enhancement discussion, bartender?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] My mom had a saying: "Anyone can #make a chandelier out of their asses."[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Which somehow means "Your body, #your choices."[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] If they are not hurting anyone, I #don't see the point in hating them.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Deal:[C:C] See, Betty?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettyface,grumpy][XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] Hey! I didn't say I automatically #hate anyone who has an enhancement. [STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] Me being against something isn't #the same as me being against someone.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] I'm not some 12 year old blindingly #hating someone because of something like #that.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Deal:[C:C] Maybe you should practice what you #preach.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] What does THAT mean?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Deal:[C:C] I fear retaliation, so I'm not #saying another word.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Are you two gonna order anything?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettyface,][XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] I'm fine right now.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Deal:[C:C] She's drinking mine, actually.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Alright. Call if you need anything #else.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] Sure.[XS:dealhide,1][XS:bettyhide,1][STOPLIP:]

[XS:radtalk,1][C:58]Poop-eater:[C:C] I was in the bathroom and #this other dog was looking at me from #the top of the sink![STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] You mean the mirror?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:radtalk,1][C:58]Poop-eater:[C:C] No! Another dog![STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I see... what can I serve you?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:radtalk,1][C:58]Poop-eater:[C:C] You're not gonna do #anything about that other dog on the #top of the sink?![STOPLIP:]

[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] When I heard someone booked us for #three days, I expected more of an #attendance.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] While you were gone, this fella #here said that the Bleeding Jane is #better than a Piledriver. [STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] Please. Prove him wrong.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Deal:[C:C] All I'm saying is that I don't see #the point in drinks that feel more like a #kick in the mouth than a beverage.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] What do you think, bartender? Do #you think there's any point discussing #non-alcoholic drinks in a bar?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] In my opinion, people who order a #Bad Touch always make me giggle like an #idiot, though.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] That's not an opinion... That's a #statement.[STOPLIP:]

[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] How did you two end up discussing #that?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettyface,][XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] Well, it started when I told this #guy that I wasn't as crazy about the #idea of working just for Corgis.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Deal:[C:C] Why don't you like Corgis?! They're #cute, and fluffy, and funny and they #just... like... MAKE YOU SMILE![STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] Tell me one interesting thing about #them.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Deal:[C:C] Legends say they were created by a #fairy and that their breed was raised to #fight dragons.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettyface,grumpy][XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] Oh, you have to be kidding.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] No, actually, I heard that one too.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] Really?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Deal:[C:C] Still, I can't see why you're so #tired of them.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettyface,sigh][XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] Dunno. Maybe because I only ever #deal with them at their worst?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] You've only seen them in their #"happy" state.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] I'm the one running feces samples #and unclogging their sphincters if they #eat their owner's dental floss.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] I might be their veterinarian, but #they treat me more like a mom and not #in a good way.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] It's like being a gynecologist. [STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] After a while, you stop seeing #boobs and vaginas. Instead, all you #see are ISSUES you must fix.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Deal:[C:C] At least they are cute issues.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettyface,][XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] Depends, a gynecologist can't pick #clients by age or preferences.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Deal:[C:C] I was talking about your job.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] Oh. Yeah. That too.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] Still, I don't think it's so much #that I'm tired of them as it is I'm tired #of you being so obsessed with them.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Deal:[C:C] I'm not obsessed. I'm passionate.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] You sleep with a Corgi plushie and #have a wall dedicated to photos you've #taken at the company.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Deal:[C:C] I'm really passionate?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] Too much passion can become an #issue, you know...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Deal:[C:C] Speaking of issues, did you talk #with the directors about the whole #Cardigan conflict?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] I was going to do that tomorrow #when they're all together.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] But I still don't see why I should #be the one doing it.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Deal:[C:C] For starters, they don't take me #too seriously.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] Understandable. I don't take you #seriously either.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Deal:[C:C] I mean, in the end, they're still #dogs. They need someone with a strong, #commanding voice.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettyface,grumpy][XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] Are you saying I have a naggy #voice?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Deal:[C:C] No, not your VOICE. Just your entire #demeanor.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] So I have a naggy DEMEANOR?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I'm assuming you two are talking #about the whole race conflict.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettyface,sigh][XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] Yeah, this is hurting them more #than they think. The company might #actually collapse at this rate.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Deal:[C:C] Which is terrible, because a couple #of these dogs' families are dependent on #their paychecks.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Doesn't that count as unethical #and... unusual treatment of animals?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettyface,][XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] It's a bit of a legal gray area. #The dogs are doing it willingly, after #all.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] And even if they weren't doing it #willingly, the dogs aren't actually being #mistreated or exploited. [STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] In fact, the company's pretty #relaxed.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] Speaking of relaxed, how's Juergen #doing?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Deal:[C:C] He's fine. Still complaining about #his back. Still unwilling to take his #medicine. He says he's "not that weak".[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Who's this Juergen guy?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Deal:[C:C] My guardian. I passed the tests #years ago, but I couldn't leave him.
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] That's actually commonplace, isn't #it? [STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Lilim being unable to leave their #guardians because they feel too much like #family.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] Now, to be fair, people get #attached to many things. Some even get #obsessed with inanimate objects.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] My grandpa loved his car more than #any of his sons.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Deal:[C:C] The one whose will left all his #earthly possessions to his car, right?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] Yeah, that one.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] How do you become a Lilim's guardian?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Deal:[C:C] You fill a form at the Artificial #Intelligence Council. [STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Deal:[C:C] Then, they do a background check. If #they deem you useful, they'll give you #authorization.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Deal:[C:C] You're given a week's notice #before they give you all the data about #the Lilim you'll be taking care of.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Deal:[C:C] You'll have to watch over it until #it can pass three different personality #tests.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Deal:[C:C] If the Lilim wants to stay with you #after that, that's your problem.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] So, it's like adoption and the lottery #all rolled into one.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Deal:[C:C] They do that to diversify the #possible outcomes. [STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Deal:[C:C] Two Lilim can be of the same model, #but they'll grow differently depending on #their guardians.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] What if something happens to the #guardian?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Deal:[C:C] A new guardian can appeal to the #council, stating they're more fit for #the position than the original.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Deal:[C:C] This happens when a guardian has #become unavailable in some way...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Deal:[C:C] ...or because you can back up claims #of neglect or maltreatment.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] You spit out all that information #like it's hard-coded in you.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Deal:[C:C] I worked in that department for #some time before coming to the STC. #It's almost a reflex.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Deal:[C:C] Are you interested in becoming a #guardian, bartender? [STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I don't know, I'm just a nerd when #it comes to AIs in general.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] The money they give you for it is #not that great though.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I see.[STOPLIP:]

[SHOW:120,sprite_betty][SHOW:280,sprite_deal][XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Deal:[C:C] Like Pomeranians. Those are NICE, but #they aren't Corgis.[STOPLIP:]

[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] I prefer more delicate-looking #girls, though.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] You can appreciate how something #looks, but that doesn't mean it's #necessarily YOUR thing.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Deal:[C:C] And you, bartender?[STOPLIP:]

[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] That's not the question I was #expecting.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] ...not much of a dog person, #actually.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Deal:[C:C] Do you have any pets?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] A cat named Fore, yeah.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] He's just a stray I rescued.[STOPLIP:]

[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I'm sure I should be making a witty #retort right now, but I'm just gonna go #ahead and say... no.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] Weird. I've always thought that the #"rescue fantasy" was universal.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Deal:[C:C] Why call it Fore?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Fore is a Lilim I met some time ago #that...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] ...nevermind.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] Pretty lame name, if you ask me.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Better than calling it "Asshat".[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Deal:[C:C] I bet when you and Fore play, it's #quite the sight, eh?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] ...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] He's so lively, sometimes I fear #Fore shadows my presence entirely.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettyface,grumpy][XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] You guys want to lose consciousness #that much?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Deal:[C:C] You really need to calm down with the #whole "pun hating" stuff, Betty.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Deal:[C:C] But to move away from this whole Fore #ground, what is this "rescue fantasy" you #mentioned before?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettyface,][XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] You know, the one where wayward, #dangerous souls redeem themselves #through the power of love.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] The bad boy who turns away a life #of crime.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] The drug-addict girl who lived on #the streets and turned tricks until she #found a good man worth changing for.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] It's Corny Romance Cliches 101.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Deal:[C:C] Well, you're the one with the shelf #full of old-lady romance novels. I'll #trust you on this.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettyface,grumpy][XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] Hey! Fabio the 13th is a national #treasure![STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Deal:[C:C] You don't even like guys. Why do you #read all those novels?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettyface,][XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] They let you put yourself in the #place of the main character quite easily.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Deal:[C:C] Even if said main character is a #muscular man?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] I see no problem.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Deal:[C:C] Just... what is your self-image?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] If I can ask something else...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] What is it?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Why do you hate puns so much?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettyface,sigh][XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] Many people cringe at puns, you #know?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Yeah, but you react like you have a #vendetta against them.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] ...they made me feel stupid.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Um... what?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettyface,][XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] When I was a kid, everyone in my #house had a penchant for making puns at #the drop of a hat.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] I was the only one who couldn't get #them.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettyface,grumpy][XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] Years later, I finally got them #and... THEY WEREN'T THAT FUNNY![STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] They made me feel stupid![STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] All in the name of some terrible #joke that wasn't even funny in the first #place![STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Deal:[C:C] I've said this so many times I might #as well just make a recording, but... you #need to chill out, Betty.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettyface,][XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] I am chilling out.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] Just because I complain about stuff #doesn't mean I'm not relaxed.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Deal:[C:C] I'm... not sure that's how it works.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] Trust me. When I'm tense and angry, #you'll know it.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Deal:[C:C] I fear the thought.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] Anyway, I'll go check on the dogs. #I'm supposed to be their doctor and they #are being suspiciously quiet.[XS:bettyhide,1][STOPLIP:]
[SHOW:185,sprite_deal][XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Deal:[C:C] Be careful.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] You want anything else?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Deal:[C:C] I'll have a Bloom Light. Actually, #make that two, please.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Sure.[XS:ph,15][XS:mix,1][E:27][STOPLIP:]

[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Deal:[C:C] Thanks.[XS:ph,16][XS:mix,0][E:28][STOPLIP:]
[RES:][XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Here.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Deal:[C:C] Not what I ordered, but whatever...[XS:ph,16][XS:mix,0][E:29][STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Say... you two seem to get along #quite well.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Deal:[C:C] Well, when you are the only sentient #humanoids in the entire company, it kinda #happens.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Sentient?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Deal:[C:C] We have a couple of test mannequins #and cardboard cutouts, so...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I see.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Seems there's more to it than just #that, though. [STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I mean, even if you two are the only #ones of your kind, you can still hate #each other.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Deal:[C:C] Well, I guess I'm one of the few #that can stand Betty.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Deal:[C:C] She's a really nice person, but she #doesn't sugar coat things.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Yeah, I can see that.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Deal:[C:C] You should see her treating those #dogs.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Deal:[C:C] She becomes so patient and #understanding, even if it's only for a #little while.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Deal:[C:C] The dogs don't call her "Mom" to #mock her.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Can dogs mock people?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Deal:[C:C] I... don't know.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] "Even if it's only for a little #while".[STOPLIP:]
[SHOW:120,sprite_betty][SHOW:280,sprite_deal][XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Deal:[C:C] You were eavesdropping?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] So you can say nice things once in #a while...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Deal:[C:C] You say it like I'm the aggressive #one here.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] It's nice hearing people say good #things about you once in a while, you #know?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Deal:[C:C] You should take your own advice.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] Maybe some other time. I'm not a #hugbox.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Deal:[C:C] Anything happened?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] A dog in the bathroom got angry at #his reflection on the mirror and charged #into it.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettyface,sigh][XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] Luckily, nothing bad happened. It #just made a dog very confused.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] How the hell do they get on top of #the sinks?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettyface,][XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] They are surprisingly agile even #with those stubby little legs.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Deal:[C:C] Oh, yeah. I ordered you this.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] Ah, thanks.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Deal:[C:C] By the way, Betty, how's Veronica?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettyface,sigh][XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] She... we broke up last month.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Deal:[C:C] What?![STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] Well, things were not going so well. #We got too used to one another.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] Everything was starting to become... #routine.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] We decided to break up before things #got bitter.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Deal:[C:C] And why didn't you tell me that #before?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettyface,][XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] Why? Did you want your turn at the #Betty mobile?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Deal:[C:C] ...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettyface,sigh][XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] I don't know. I guess I just didn't #want to trouble you. [STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] And, after a while, it stopped #feeling like it was something relevant #to say.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Deal:[C:C] *sigh* Please don't do that again. #Try trusting me.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] Yeah, you're right...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Deal:[C:C] ...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] ...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] ...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] You know what bothers me? [STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] The fact that asking after someone's #health always feels like you're walking #on a floor full of glass shards.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] There's always this chance that the #other person is not okay, or even dead...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] And what started as a legitimately #fun moment can go sour.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettyface,][XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] Yeah, you're right.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] Sorry for not trusting you, you #piece o' scrap.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Deal:[C:C] Don't worry. I understand why you #did it.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] Hey. Now that I think about it, you #sure hang out with us a lot, bartender.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Well, dogs can only be so #interesting, and besides, there haven't #been as many dogs today.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Is my presence unwanted?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] Not at all. Especially since you're #the one bringing the booze.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Deal:[C:C] You're like those cab drivers that #like to chat all the way... but you #smell better than most of them.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Thank you.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Funny thing is that we are #unofficially associated with a local #taxi line. [STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] They're the ones that send drunkards #to their homes.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] You seem to really, really like #talking to your clients. Like, it's the #best part of your job or something.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] It kinda is.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I used to sit around in crowded #places like malls or bars and think to #myself...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] "Each and every person here has a #story."[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] It's a humbling experience.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Everyone has dreams, fears, and #loved ones. [STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] If you dig deep enough, you'll #realize that the gap between two random #people isn't as big as you think it is. [STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] In fact, it's quite small.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] And in this job, you get to hear all #kinds of stories. [STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Some people just blurt it all out. #Some do it while drunk.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] To know that no matter how similar #they might seem at first glance, no two #people are alike... it's fascinating.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] You could be a powerful information #broker with all that knowledge.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Nah. Not interested.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I like to see myself more as a #friendly ear rather than someone you #need to be wary of.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] I guess there're still decent folks #out there.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Deal:[C:C] I'm not decent?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] YOU'RE CRITICALLY OBSESSED WITH #DOGS![STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I'll go check if there's any other #dogs who want something.[STOPLIP:]

[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] You just like it. Your body needs #it. Craves it.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Deal:[C:C] That's called being an alcoholic.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] I prefer the term "alcohol #enthusiast."[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] Anyway, humans actively look for #things that make them feel light-headed.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] Why else would they leave some #poison in potentially poisonous foods #like that weird balloon fish thing?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] Why would they eat spicy food or #drink fermented milk?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] Seriously, how crazy does someone #need to be to say "Hey, let's eat this #and see what happens"?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] Worse yet, they've even found #MEDICINE among all that junk.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] The one that invented penicillin was #probably the worst of them all.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Deal:[C:C] Fair enough. But see, that's proof #you're drunk.[STOPLIP:]

[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Deal:[C:C] Oh. Well. You won't remember it #tomorrow.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Deal:[C:C] I'm a DT-01d, a social development #robot.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] Is that like the DFC-72s?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Deal:[C:C] No, no... DFC-72s are designed to be #as physically human as possible in order #to blend in with humans better.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Deal:[C:C] My line is more tailored for #resilience. We are "Work Lilim."[STOPLIP:]

[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Deal:[C:C] I know. I'm already doing it.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Deal:[C:C] Being created or hardwired for one #duty only means you're more adept at #certain things.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Deal:[C:C] Giving robots freedom of choice? #That's the whole purpose of the ADN law.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] Yeah, but you know... you say you're #resilient, but you don't look the part.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Deal:[C:C] True, I never upgraded my muscles, #but I can stand up to 200 degrees Celsius #without breaking a sweat.[STOPLIP:]

[XS:bettyface,grumpy][XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] 'scuse me, what?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Deal:[C:C] If humans are allowed to marry #robots... LILIM! I meant Lilim![STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Deal:[C:C] *ahem* They should be able to marry #dogs too.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] ...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettyface,drunk][XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] Ab Trender~[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] That's me... I think.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] This guy here wants to bang a dog. #Mock him.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Excuse me?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Deal:[C:C] I do NOT. [STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Deal:[C:C] I was just saying that if humans are #now allowed to marry Lilim, why shouldn't #they be able to marry animals?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] Because first of all, they're not #humanoids.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Deal:[C:C] What about monkeys then?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] And now you wanna bang a monkey?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Deal:[C:C] I DO NOT![STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] And second of all, dogs, just like #many other animals, can't give you #consent.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Deal:[C:C] But look at these dogs! [STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Deal:[C:C] Sure, they have the cognitive #abilities of 7-year olds, but they can #talk, drink booze, and argue.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] So now you wanna bang a 7-year old?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] We have a regular here who would be #delighted to hear that.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Deal:[C:C] Stop it![STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] Remember. Lilim-human marriages #were only sanctioned after the Lilim #achieved full sentience.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] And even then, they used marriage #as a way to evolve the Collective Source.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] Besides, dogs don't really "love" #us that way. [STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] Trying to apply human ideas like #marriage to a dog is like... [STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] ...like trying to feed vegetables to #a carnivore, you get me?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Deal:[C:C] Says the ex-vegetarian. Why are you #only so smart when drunk?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] I'm not drunk![STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] But, anyways. If you want to screw #a dog or a chimp, go ahead.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] Just don't bring marriage or infants #into the whole deal... Deal.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] But if you even start thinking #about doing the horizontal mambo with a #7-year-old, please seek some mental help.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Deal:[C:C] But I don't want to bang dogs! Or #monkeys! Or 7 year-olds![STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] Well, thank god![STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] Then why did you suddenly start #talking about dog-human marriage?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Deal:[C:C] It's just... I was thinking about #all these dogs in tuxedos and...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Deal:[C:C] ...and I started picturing a dog in #a bridal dress...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Deal:[C:C] I mean, Just try and picture that.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] ...and I'M the drunk one.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] Wait... I'm not drunk, why would I #say that?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] Then again, when YOU get drunk you #only get dizzy.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] Do you have a limit? As in, a limit #to how much you can drink before passing #out?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Deal:[C:C] No, I just get disoriented to the #point I'm effectively useless, but I never #pass out.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Deal:[C:C] Maybe, if I passed out, I wouldn't #have to deal with all the shit that #follows. [STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Deal:[C:C] I always have to wait at least 24 #hours before the effects pass.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Deal:[C:C] One has to wonder why they gave all #those human flaws to Lilim.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I read something about that. [STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] It said that by giving Lilim the #same kind of weaknesses humans have, they #would develop the same way humans do.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] So that's why they also bite their #lips randomly when eating?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Seems like it.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] But it makes me wonder: exactly how #anatomically correct are you?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Deal:[C:C] That's something I know and you #don't.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] Hmph...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Any of you want anything else to #drink?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] Yeah! I want...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Deal:[C:C] Nothing, you're drunk enough as is.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] You're not my dad! You can't tell #me what I can or can't do![STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Deal:[C:C] Beatrice Albert, stop drinking right #now.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] ...yes, mom.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Deal:[C:C] Now, go sleep in the car. We are #almost done here.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] But mo-om![STOPLIP:]

[SHOW:185,sprite_deal][XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Deal:[C:C] It... actually worked. [STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Deal:[C:C] If I didn't know she wouldn't remember #anything tomorrow, I'd be afraid of #retaliation.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Deal:[C:C] Although, I'm curious. Why do you #call her "Ms. Betty?" It makes her sound #like a teacher or something.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Etiquette? I don't know.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] There's also something about her #that makes it feel right to call her #that. Maybe, it's the forehead...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Deal:[C:C] I see...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Deal:[C:C] Well, I gotta get things ready. If #you'll excuse me...[XS:dealhide,1][STOPLIP:]

[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] Well, I guess you have the right to #know.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] The BTC sent me a message on Friday. #Valhalla hasn't been bringing in #much income these last few months.[STOPLIP:]

[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] Нет... То есть. Да. Но сейчас дело не #в этом.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] Мой босс как-то странно себя ведёт ещё #с пятницы.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Бетти:[C:C] Как странно? [STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Бетти:[C:C] Странно, будто влюбилась? Странно,#как наркоман? Странно, как «Надеюсь-Никто-#Не-Найдёт-Труп-В-Холодильнике»?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] Ну, для начала, она сказала мне про #банкет всего за пару минут до открытия бара.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] Вдобавок, она полностью ушла в себя. #Кажется, что-то её сильно тревожит.[STOPLIP:]

[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] Хуже.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettyface,grumpy][XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Бетти:[C:C] Ох...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] Она сама не своя, и это меня пугает. #Вдруг с ней что-то случилось.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettyface,][XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Бетти:[C:C] Например? Вы что, людей на продажу в #подвале содержите?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] Нет, у нас нет лицензии для этого.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] Ну да ладно. Мне платят не за то, #чтобы я по этому поводу себя накручивала.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Дил:[C:C] Могу я спросить кое-что по поводу твоей #работы?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] Конечно.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Дил:[C:C] Мне всегда было интересно: что в БТС #требуют от своих барменов? Какие навыки нужны #для этой работы?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] Они обучают всему с нуля, так что #заранее ничего особенного знать не надо.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Дил:[C:C] И что входит в обучение?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] Куча правил этикета и правовых #моментов. Но большую часть времени мы #проводим в отыгрыше различных ситуаций.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Бетти:[C:C] В смысле «отыгрыше»?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] Воспроизводим различные ситуации, #например, в случае возникновения химической #опасности. Как-то так.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] Им нужно, чтобы ты мог правильно #среагировать на любую аварию с участием #наших ингредиентов.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] На деле же вероятность того, что #что-то пойдёт не так, крайне мала... Но #всегда лучше перестраховаться.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Дил:[C:C] Понятно.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] Одну секунду, сейчас я к вам вернусь. #Нужно обслужить других клиентов... псов... #да.[STOPLIP:]

[XS:radtalk,1][C:57]Нам Три Годика:[C:C] *вздох*[XS:radhide,1][STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] (Что ж, теперь я чувствую себя #виноватой.)[XS:ph,8][XS:mix,0][E:14][STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Бетти:[C:C] Слушай, по дороге домой вчера такую #няшу встретила! Тебе надо было её видеть.[STOPLIP:]
[SHOW:120,sprite_betty][SHOW:280,sprite_deal][XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Бетти:[C:C] Котобумер, судя по всему. В лёгком #платьице вся такая. И с искусственным #глазом...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Дил:[C:C] Ты же вроде как противница #протезирования.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Бетти:[C:C] Но я сторонница няшек.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettyface,sigh][XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Бетти:[C:C] И я не против протезов, а только #против аугментаций.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Дил:[C:C] Не вижу между ними разницы.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettyface,][XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Бетти:[C:C] Ну вот смотри. Предположим,#ты потерял руку.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Бетти:[C:C] Если ты заменишь её на протез, который #функционирует точно так же, как обычная рука, # всё в порядке, я буду рада за тебя.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Бетти:[C:C] Но если ты заменишь её на#супер-руку-2080 со встроенным травматом, #полуметровыми лезвиями или самотыком...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Бетти:[C:C] То очень сильно огорчишь меня своим #выбором.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Бетти:[C:C] Особенно, если ты решишь заменить#имеющуюся конечность ради моды, или потому, #что это даст тебе какие-то преимущества. [STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Бетти:[C:C] Вот это будет вообще не круто.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Бетти:[C:C] В этом и заключается разница между #протезами и аугментациями. Заменители против #улучшений...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Бетти:[C:C] И я точно так же отношусь к ситуациям, #когда лилимы заменяют свои части тела просто #потому, что им вдруг захотелось.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Бетти:[C:C] Потому что если ты думаешь, что замена #конечности лёгкий способ преуспеть в #чём-то, то ты сильно ошибаешься.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Дил:[C:C] Ну, я понял твою точку зрения, но... #Почему ты думаешь, что глаз той девушки не #был, как ты говоришь, улучшением?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Дил:[C:C] И потом, если бы у неё было плохое #зрение, не считалось бы исправление зрения #своего рода улучшением в твоём понятии?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Дил:[C:C] Какое место в твоей идеологии занимает #исправляющий фактор?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Дил:[C:C] Ведь аугментации могут служить для того, #чтобы восполнить недостатки человека, #имеющего проблемы со здоровьем.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettyface,grumpy][XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Бетти:[C:C] Ну... как бы...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Бетти:[C:C] Так, стоямба. Разве это не переводит #их в разряд протезов?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettyface,sigh][XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Бетти:[C:C] Чёрт, ты меня запутал своим #умничанием, железа кусок![STOPLIP:]

[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Дил:[C:C] О, бармен. А ты быстро.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] Похоже, сегодня псов меньше. Во всяком #случае, тех, кто хочет выпить.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Дил:[C:C] Да... Некоторые съели свои талоны.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Бетти:[C:C] *вздох* Охуенно. Работку мне #подкинули.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettyface,][XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Бетти:[C:C] Кстати, бармен, а что ты думаешь вот #об этих всех аугментациях?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] Как говорила моя мать: «Каждый вправе #сделать из своей жопы светильник».[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] Или, проще говоря, «Твоё тело твоё #дело».[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] Пока носители аугментаций не вредят #окружающим, не вижу смысла ненавидеть этих #людей.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Дил:[C:C] Видишь, Бетти?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettyface,grumpy][XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Бетти:[C:C] Эй! Я не говорила, что ненавижу всех, #кто аугментирует своё тело. [STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Бетти:[C:C] Если я против чего-то, то это не #значит, что я против людей, которые с этим #связаны.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Бетти:[C:C] Я же не тупая школьница, слепо #ненавидящая всех и вся.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Дил:[C:C] Может, тебе следует начать следовать #тому, что ты проповедуешь?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Бетти:[C:C] А ЭТО ещё что значит?[STOPLIP:]

[XS:radtalk,1][C:58]Толчколиз:[C:C] И ты ничего не предпримешь в #отношении того другого пса?![STOPLIP:]

[RES:][XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] Пожалуйста.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Бетти:[C:C] Выбрала что-то своё, да?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Бетти:[C:C] Таким образом ты хотела сказать, что #оба напитка являют собой исключительную #ерунду?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] Да не то чтобы...[XS:ph,12][XS:mix,0][E:23][STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] И как вы вообще пришли к этому спору?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettyface,][XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Бетти:[C:C] Ну, всё началось с того, что я #сказала этому типу, что не разделяю его #идеи работать просто ради корги.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Дил:[C:C] Чем тебе не нравятся корги?! Они же #милые, и пушистые, и забавные, и вообще они, #типа... ДАРЯТ УЛЫБКИ ОДНИМ ТОЛЬКО ВИДОМ![STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Бетти:[C:C] Ну вот расскажи мне что-нибудь #интересное о них. Хоть что-нибудь.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Дил:[C:C] Легенда гласит, что они были созданы #феей, чтобы их многочисленные потомки затем #сражались с драконами.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettyface,grumpy][XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Бетти:[C:C] Охереть как смешно.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] Нет, правда, я тоже слышала эту #историю.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Бетти:[C:C] Прикалываешься, что ли?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Дил:[C:C] И всё же я не понимаю, почему ты так от #них устала.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettyface,sigh][XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Бетти:[C:C] Не знаю. Может, потому что мне #приходится иметь с ними дело, только когда у #них блохи и они серят под себя?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Бетти:[C:C] А ты их видишь только тогда, когда они #весело резвятся.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Бетти:[C:C] В то время как я провожу анализы их #кала и прочищаю им сфинктеры, если они вдруг #что-то не то проглотят.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Бетти:[C:C] И относятся они ко мне как к мамочке. #Далеко не в лучшем значении этого слова.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Бетти:[C:C] Так что ощущения можно сравнить с #работой гинеколога.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Бетти:[C:C] Спустя какое-то время ты перестаёшь#видеть перед собой сиськи-письки, а видишь#только проблемы, которые нужно исправить.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Дил:[C:C] Ну, по крайней мере, это проблемы милых #пушистиков.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettyface,][XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Бетти:[C:C] Когда как, врач ведь не может #отсеивать пациентов по возрасту. И бритые #всё-таки лучше.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Дил:[C:C] Я говорил про твою работу.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Бетти:[C:C] А, ну... Да, тут схожая история.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Бетти:[C:C] И потом, я бы не сказала, что я устала #от них. Я, скорее, устала от твоей #одержимости ими.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Дил:[C:C] Это не одержимость. Это любовь.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Бетти:[C:C] Ты спишь с плюшевым корги. И заклеил #целую стену в комнате фотографиями, #сделанными в компании.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Дил:[C:C] Это очень... пылкая любовь?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Бетти:[C:C] Такая любовь может привести к #нехорошим последствиям, знаешь ли...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Дил:[C:C] Кстати, о нехорошем. Ты уже общалась с #советом директоров на тему конфликта с #кардиганами?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Бетти:[C:C] Я хотела завтра пойти. У них как раз #там заседание будет.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Бетти:[C:C] Но я всё ещё не понимаю, почему именно #я должна с ними об этом говорить.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Дил:[C:C] Ну, во-первых, они не воспринимают меня #всерьёз.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Бетти:[C:C] Их можно понять. Я вот тоже тебя #всерьёз не воспринимаю.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Дил:[C:C] Я к тому, что они же псы, в конце #концов. С ними нужно говорить громким #командным голосом.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettyface,grumpy][XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Бетти:[C:C] Хочешь сказать, что у меня такой едкий #голос?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Дил:[C:C] Нет, не голос. Вообще манера поведения.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Бетти:[C:C] То есть у меня едкая манера #поведения?![STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] Я так полагаю, вы сейчас обсуждаете #конфликт между двумя породами?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettyface,sigh][XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Бетти:[C:C] Да, и им это вредит гораздо больше, #чем они думают. Вся компания может в итоге #накрыться.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Дил:[C:C] И это будет ужасно, так как несколько #семей живут на зарплату своих питомцев.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] Разве это этично и вообще... Разве это #не подпадает под жестокое обращение с #животными?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettyface,][XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Бетти:[C:C] Про такой расклад в действующем законе #ничего не сказано. Да и потом, псы ведь сами #хотят этим заниматься.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Бетти:[C:C] И даже если бы сами псы не стремились #всем этим заниматься, там их всё равно никто #не унижает и не эксплуатирует. [STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Бетти:[C:C] Да и вообще, то, чем они занимаются в #компании, сложно назвать работой.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Бетти:[C:C] Кстати о работе, как там Юрген?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Дил:[C:C] Нормально. По-прежнему жалуется на #больную спину, по-прежнему отказывается #лечиться. Говорит, что не так уж он и болен.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] А что за Юрген?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Дил:[C:C] Мой опекун. Я ещё год назад прошёл все #тесты, но всё никак не могу расстаться с #ним.
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] Разве это не обычная практика? [STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] Ну, то, что лилимы не могут расстаться #со своими опекунами из-за того, что те стали #для них семьёй.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Бетти:[C:C] Сейчас люди много с чем не могут #расстаться. Некоторые привязываются даже к #неодушевлённым объектам... иногда чересчур.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Бетти:[C:C] Мой дед, например, любил свою тачку #больше, чем собственных сыновей.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Дил:[C:C] Ты про того дедушку, что завещал все #свои пожитки своей машине?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Бетти:[C:C] Да, именно про него.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] А как стать опекуном лилима?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Дил:[C:C] Нужно обратиться в Совет Искусственного #Интеллекта, заполнить у них нужные формы. [STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Дил:[C:C] Потом они проверяют, кто ты и что ты. И #если они сочтут тебя пригодной для данной #роли, то разрешат тебе опекунствовать.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Дил:[C:C] И потом они высылают тебе уведомление за#неделю до того, как выдать тебе всю информацию#о лилиме, за которым тебя закрепят.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Дил:[C:C] И ты должна будешь заботиться о нём, #пока он не сдаст три теста на зрелость.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Дил:[C:C] Если после этого лилим захочет остаться #с тобой, то это уже полностью твоя забота.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] То есть, эдакая лотерея, где может #выпасть усыновление лилима, я правильно #понимаю?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Дил:[C:C] Типа того. А вообще, смысл участия #разных опекунов в разнообразии возможных #путей развития лилимов. [STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Дил:[C:C] Два лилима одной модели могут вести себя #по-разному из-за того, что росли с разными #опекунами.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Бетти:[C:C] А если что-то случится с опекуном?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Дил:[C:C] Совет объявляет место опекуна свободным, #собирает какое-то время заявки и потом #выбирает нового.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Дил:[C:C] Так происходит, если опекун по какой-то #причине потеряет возможность исполнять свои #обязанности по отношению к лилиму...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Дил:[C:C] ...или если просто начнёт халатно #относиться к опекунству.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Бетти:[C:C] Ты так выдаёшь всю эту инфу, будто она #у тебя зашита в программе.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Дил:[C:C] Я работал в этой отрасли перед тем, как #пойти работать в «ФИС». Так что теперь #проговариваю это всё на автомате.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Дил:[C:C] А ты хочешь стать опекуном, а, бармен? [STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] Да нет, просто интересуюсь всем, что #связано с искусственным интеллектом.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Бетти:[C:C] Впрочем, платят за опекунство не так #много.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] Понятно.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] Так, пора проведать пёсиков.[XS:dealhide,1][XS:bettyhide,1][STOPLIP:]

[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Дил:[C:C] Да нет же, я прекрасно понимаю, что у #каждой породы собак есть свои особенности.[STOPLIP:]
[SHOW:120,sprite_betty][SHOW:280,sprite_deal][XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Дил:[C:C] Шпицы, например. Они МИЛЫЕ, но они #совсем не как корги.[STOPLIP:]

[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Бетти:[C:C] То есть, вот помнишь ту вчерашнюю #девушку, о которой я уже говорила?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Дил:[C:C] Да...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Бетти:[C:C] Помнишь ту белую рыцаршу, что была с #ней? Она ведь тоже ничего.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Бетти:[C:C] То есть, конечно же, под формой у неё #скрывалась груда мускул.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Бетти:[C:C] Но мне нравятся более нежные #создания.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Бетти:[C:C] То есть, тебе может нравиться что-то #внешне, но это не значит, что это именно #твоё.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Дил:[C:C] А ты как думаешь, бармен?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] Я... на тему?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Дил:[C:C] Какая порода собак тебе больше #нравится?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Бетти:[C:C] Я ожидала другой вопрос.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] ...Я, честно говоря, вообще не по #собакам.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Дил:[C:C] У тебя есть домашние любимцы?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] Да, кошка по кличке Лунка.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] Просто на улице её подобрала, спасла #от собаки.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Бетти:[C:C] А девчонок тебе нравится спасать на #улице?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] Я, наверное, должна сейчас вся такая #засмущаться, но... отвечу просто «нет».[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Бетти:[C:C] Странно. Я думала, что всех посещают #фантазии о том, как они спасают свою будущую #половинку.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Дил:[C:C] А почему ты назвала её Лункой?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] Так звали лилима, которого я в своё #время встретила...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] ...Впрочем, забей.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Бетти:[C:C] Довольно глупое имя, как по мне.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] Всё же лучше, чем Жопа-С-Ручкой.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Дил:[C:C] Интересно было бы посмотреть, как ты #играешь со своей Лункой.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Бетти:[C:C] ...[STOPLIP:]

[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Дил:[C:C] Ну Бетти, тебе давно пора охладить свою #ненависть к каламбурам.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Дил:[C:C] Ну да ладно, оставим пушистый предмет #разговора позади. Так что ты говорила про #фантазию о спасении половинки?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettyface,][XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Бетти:[C:C] Ну, знаешь, когда сбившиеся с пути #потерянные души находят себя благодаря силе #любви.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Бетти:[C:C] Например, плохой парень бросает #преступное прошлое.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Бетти:[C:C] Или наркоманка, которая живёт в #подворотне и ворует деньги, пока не встретит #человека, ради которого захочет измениться.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Бетти:[C:C] Рекомендации из книги «Романтические #клише для чайников», в общем.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Дил:[C:C] Ну, ты же у нас владелица целого шкафа #дамских романов, так что здесь я в твоём #экспертном мнении нисколько не сомневаюсь.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettyface,grumpy][XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Бетти:[C:C] Эй! «Фабио Тринадцатый» национальное #достояние![STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Дил:[C:C] Тебя ведь даже не привлекают парни. #Почему ты всё это читаешь?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettyface,][XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Бетти:[C:C] Ты легко можешь представить себя на #месте главного героя.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Дил:[C:C] То есть, мускулистого парня?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Бетти:[C:C] В этом что-то не так?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Дил:[C:C] Ну... А кем ты вообще себя #представляешь по жизни?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] У меня тут есть ещё кое-какой #вопрос...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Бетти:[C:C] Какой?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] Чем тебе не нравятся каламбуры?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettyface,sigh][XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Бетти:[C:C] Ты в курсе, что многих людей от них #корёжит?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] Да, но ты так на них реагируешь, #будто у тебя с ними какие-то личные счёты.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Бетти:[C:C] ...Я из-за них считала себя дурой.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] Эм... это как?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettyface,][XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Бетти:[C:C] Когда я была ребёнком, все в моей #семье кидались каламбурами на ровном месте.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Бетти:[C:C] И я была единственной, кто их не #понимал.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettyface,grumpy][XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Бетти:[C:C] Спустя годы я таки начала врубаться... #И ОНИ ОКАЗАЛИСЬ НЕ ТАКИМИ УЖ И СМЕШНЫМИ![STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Бетти:[C:C] Я всё своё детство чувствовала себя #глупой! И ради чего?![STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Бетти:[C:C] Ради каких-то идиотских шуток, #которые даже того не стоили![STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Дил:[C:C] Я уже много раз это говорил можно уже #даже просто включать аудиозапись, но... #Бетти, расслабься, наконец.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettyface,][XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Бетти:[C:C] Я расслабляюсь.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Бетти:[C:C] Если я просто сетую на что-то, это не #значит, что я так сильно напряжена.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Дил:[C:C] Я... не думаю, что это на самом деле #так.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Бетти:[C:C] Поверь, когда я по-настоящему #разозлюсь, ты это сразу поймёшь.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Дил:[C:C] Боюсь даже представить.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Бетти:[C:C] Ладно, пойду, проверю, как себя #чувствуют собачки. А то как-то они #подозрительно затихли.[XS:bettyhide,1][STOPLIP:]

[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] А, ясно.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] Ну, всё же, должно же быть что-то ещё. #[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] В том смысле, что несмотря на то, что #вы одни, вы ведь можете при этом ненавидеть #друг друга.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Дил:[C:C] Ну, думаю, я вдобавок отношусь к тем #немногим, кто способен терпеть Бетти.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Дил:[C:C] Она очень хороший человек, пускай #временами она может быть излишне #прямолинейной.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] Да, заметно.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Дил:[C:C] Тебе стоит посмотреть, как она ухаживает #за этими собаками.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Дил:[C:C] Она становится такой терпеливой и #понимающей. Пускай и на очень короткое #время.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Дил:[C:C] Псы не шутки ради зовут её мамой #всё-таки.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] А псам знакома концепция высмеивания?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Дил:[C:C] Я... не знаю, честно говоря.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Бетти:[C:C] «Пускай и на очень короткое время».[STOPLIP:]
[SHOW:120,sprite_betty][SHOW:280,sprite_deal][XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Дил:[C:C] Подслушивала, значит?[STOPLIP:]

[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Дил:[C:C] Так говоришь, будто это я здесь весь из #себя такой агрессивный.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Бетти:[C:C] Просто приятно слышать, как кто-то #иногда говорит о тебе что-то хорошее, #понимаешь?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Дил:[C:C] Тебе бы самой это понять не мешало.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Бетти:[C:C] Может, как-нибудь потом. Я не склонна #к сюсюканиям.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Дил:[C:C] Там как, всё в порядке с псами?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Бетти:[C:C] Пёс в туалете разозлился на своё #отражение в зеркале и набросился на него.[STOPLIP:]

[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Дил:[C:C] Что?![STOPLIP:]

[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Бетти:[C:C] Всё стало так... обыденно.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Бетти:[C:C] Мы решили разойтись, пока всё совсем #по пизде не пошло.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Дил:[C:C] И почему ты раньше мне об этом не #сказала?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettyface,][XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Бетти:[C:C] Зачем? Ты хотел сам прокатиться на #Беттимобиле?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Дил:[C:C] ...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettyface,sigh][XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Бетти:[C:C] Я не знаю. Наверное, просто не хотела #тебя грузить.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Бетти:[C:C] И, спустя какое-то время, мне это #просто перестало казаться чем-то стоящим #упоминания.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Дил:[C:C] *вздох* Пожалуйста, не делай так больше. #Я ведь беспокоюсь. И тебе пора научиться мне #доверять.[STOPLIP:]

[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] ...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] Знаете, что меня постоянно напрягает?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] То, что когда спрашиваешь, как дела у #кого-то третьего, ты как будто ступаешь на #пол, усыпанный битым стеклом.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] Всегда есть ненулевая вероятность #того, что с тем человеком что-то случилось, #или он вовсе умер...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] И разговор, начавшийся за здравие, #скатывается в тоску и горечь.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettyface,][XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Бетти:[C:C] Да, есть такое.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Бетти:[C:C] Да, прости, железка, что не делюсь с #тобой новостями.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Дил:[C:C] Не волнуйся. Я понимаю, почему ты так #поступаешь.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Бетти:[C:C] Кстати, бармен, а чего ты всё с нами #тут тусуешься?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] Ну, по душам с собаками не поговоришь, #да и не так их много сегодня. Даже наливать #толком некому.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] А ты хочешь, чтобы я вас оставила #наедине?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Бетти:[C:C] Нет, вовсе нет. Тем более, что ты #наливаешь.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Дил:[C:C] Ты как те водители такси, что любят #болтать всю дорогу... только пахнешь лучше #большинства из них.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] Я польщена.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] Забавно, но мы неофициально #сотрудничаем с местными таксистами.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] Они развозят по домам тех, кому это #необходимо после весьма качественного #предоставления нами своих услуг. [STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Бетти:[C:C] Похоже, тебе правда нравится говорить #с клиентами, будто это главная часть твоей #работы.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] Но ведь отчасти это так и есть.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] В людных местах вроде магазинов и #баров меня постоянно одолевает одна и та же #мысль...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] «Вот у каждого человека здесь есть #своя история за плечами».[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] И это позволяет понять, как ты на #самом деле мал в сравнении с окружающим #миром.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] У каждого есть свои мечты, свои #страхи, дорогие ему люди. [STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] Если достаточно глубоко копнуть, то #понимаешь, что между двумя случайными людьми #на самом деле очень много общего. [STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] Всё переплетено. И мир чрезвычайно #тесен.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] И работая барменом, ты слышишь #огромное количество разных историй. [STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] Кто-то просто сразу выплёскивает всё #на тебя, кто-то проговорится о чём-то по #пьяни.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] И при этом, как бы два человека ни #были похожи на первый взгляд, двух одинаковых #никогда не будет... Это завораживает.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Бетти:[C:C] С такими знаниями ты могла бы неплохо #торговать информацией.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] Не. Не интересно.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] Мне нравится быть чутким и #внимательным собеседником для клиента, а не #кем-то, кого следует избегать.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Бетти:[C:C] Похоже, не перевелись ещё приличные #люди.[STOPLIP:]

[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Бетти:[C:C] Я сказала... БАХНЕЕЕЕЕМ![STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] За Дила.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Дил:[C:C] Ваше здоровье.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Бетти:[C:C] Зашибись![STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Дил:[C:C] Угрюмая по жизни и милая после литра. #Кажется, она ещё с универа была такой.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Бетти:[C:C] Так говоришь, будто это было лет #десять назад.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Дил:[C:C] *КХЕ-КХЕ* Я понимаю, что кому-то может #нравиться вкус напитка, но что хорошего в #том, чтобы напиться?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Бетти:[C:C] Во-первых, я ещё не напилась.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Дил:[C:C] Но ты чересчур весёлая.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Бетти:[C:C] Такой я человек![STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Дил:[C:C] Когда напьёшься.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Бетти:[C:C] Пфхм...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Бетти:[C:C] В общем, это невозможно просто так #объяснить.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Бетти:[C:C] Тебе это просто нравится. Твоё тело #этого хочет. Рвётся к этому.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Дил:[C:C] Это называется алкоголизм.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Бетти:[C:C] Мне больше нравится термин #«алкогольный энтузиазм».[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Бетти:[C:C] И вообще, люди постоянно ищут способы #опьянеть и расслабиться.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Бетти:[C:C] Иначе зачем бы они оставляли немного #яда в потенциально ядовитой еде, как, #например, вот та надувающаяся рыба?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Бетти:[C:C] Зачем они едят острую пищу и пьют #прокисшее молоко?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Бетти:[C:C] Серьёзно, насколько отбитым нужно #быть, чтобы предложить: «Эй, а давайте съедим #вот это и посмотрим, что будет?»[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Бетти:[C:C] Более того, они даже сумели найти #ЛЕКАРСТВА среди всего этого дерьма.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Бетти:[C:C] А уж как пенициллин открыли я вообще #молчу.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Дил:[C:C] Вполне резонно. С другой стороны, ты #только что подтвердила, что напилась.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Дил:[C:C] Если бы ты была трезвой, ты бы просто #ответила: «Блин, да почём мне знать...»[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Бетти:[C:C] Глупый робот...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Бетти:[C:C] Кстати, раз уж задели эту тему, а что #ИМЕННО ты за робот?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Дил:[C:C] Лилим.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Бетти:[C:C] Лилим какое-то бабское название.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Бетти:[C:C] Ладно, перефразирую. Как называется #модель данного ведра с болтами?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Дил:[C:C] А ты не знаешь?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Бетти:[C:C] Никогда не интересовалась. А сейчас #вот что-то вдруг засвербило прям.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Дил:[C:C] Ох, ладно. Завтра ты всё равно не #вспомнишь.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Дил:[C:C] Я DT-01d, модель для социальных #взаимодействий.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Бетти:[C:C] Типа как DFC-72?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Дил:[C:C] Не, не... DFC-72 делают внешне #максимально похожими на людей, чтобы те лучше #вливались в общество.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Дил:[C:C] А моя линейка больше рассчитана на #выносливость. Мы «рабочие лилимы».[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Бетти:[C:C] Почему ты должен быть обречён всю #жизнь идти по предначертанному пути?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Бетти:[C:C] Ты же можешь делать что захочешь, #глупыш. Иди к своей мечте![STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Дил:[C:C] Я знаю. Уже иду к ней.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Дил:[C:C] То, что меня создавали для какой-то #цели, означает лишь, что я для этого лучше #приспособлен.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Дил:[C:C] Но дальше я уже волен поступать так, как #захочу. В этом как раз суть закона об АДН.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Бетти:[C:C] Да, но знаешь... Вот ты сказал, что #рассчитан на выносливость. Но выглядишь ты #как-то не очень соответствующе.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Дил:[C:C] Да, я никогда не улучшал себе мускулы.#Но зато я могу выдержать нагрев до двухсот#градусов даже не вспотев.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] А лилимы потеют?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Дил:[C:C] Выделяют охлаждающую жидкость, если быть #точнее.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Бетти:[C:C] Похер! Ты всегда будешь особенным для #меня, и мне всё равно, для чего изначально #хотели использовать такого милого робота![STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Дил:[C:C] Лилима.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Бетти:[C:C] Какая разница, как назвать дерьмо с #болтами![STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Дил:[C:C] Кстати об особенностях: как так #получилось, что до сих пор нельзя жениться на #собаке?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Бетти:[C:C] ...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettyface,grumpy][XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Бетти:[C:C] Прости, блядь, что?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Дил:[C:C] Ну если людям можно жениться на #роботах... ЛИЛИМАХ! Я хотел сказать #«Лилимах»![STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Дил:[C:C] *кхм* Так вот, у них тогда должно быть #право и на собаках жениться.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Бетти:[C:C] ...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettyface,drunk][XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Бетти:[C:C] Баберн~[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] Э-э... Ты меня зовёшь?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Бетти:[C:C] Этот тип хочет присунуть собаке. Его #нужно немедленно засмеять.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] Прости, что?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Дил:[C:C] Я НЕ ХОЧУ никому присунуть. [STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Дил:[C:C] Я просто сказал, что если людям можно #вступать в брак с лилимами, то почему всё ещё #нельзя вступать в союз со зверьми?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Бетти:[C:C] В первую очередь потому, что они не #гуманоиды.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Дил:[C:C] А что тогда с обезьянами?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Бетти:[C:C] Не дают с собакой, так хочешь хотя бы #к макаке пристроить своего железного дружка?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Дил:[C:C] ДА НЕ ХОЧУ Я НИЧЕГО СОВАТЬ В МАКАК![STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Бетти:[C:C] Так вот, собаки, как и другие звери, #не могут дать тебе согласие.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Дил:[C:C] Но ты только посмотри на них! [STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Дил:[C:C] Да, интеллект у них на уровне #первоклашек, но они всё же могут говорить, и #бухать, и обсуждать различные темы.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Бетти:[C:C] То есть ты хотел бы отпердолить #первоклашку?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] У нас есть постоянная клиентка, #которой эта мысль пришлась бы по душе.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Дил:[C:C] Прекратите![STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Бетти:[C:C] Не забывай, что браки между людьми и #лилимами были разрешены только после того, #как лилимы достигли полной сознательности.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Бетти:[C:C] И даже после этого браки с ними по #большей части нужны для добавления новых #знаний в коллективное хранилище.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Бетти:[C:C] Кстати, в плане настоящей любви собаки #нас не очень-то «любят». [STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Бетти:[C:C] Пытаться применить к псам человеческие #идеи вроде брака это как... [STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Бетти:[C:C] ...пытаться скормить редис #насекомоядному растению, понимаешь, да?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Дил:[C:C] Сказала бывшая вегетарианка. И почему ты #такая умная, только когда много выпьешь?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Бетти:[C:C] Я не пьяная![STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Бетти:[C:C] Но, в любом случае... Если захочешь #оттарабанить пса или мартышку, то вперёд.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Бетти:[C:C] Просто не думай при этом о свадьбе, #чувствах, и прочих соплей тоже не разводи, #ладно?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Бетти:[C:C] Но если удумаешь окунуться в плотские #утехи с первоклассницей, то постарайся #сначала добраться до психиатра.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Дил:[C:C] Но я не собираюсь трахать собак! И #мартышек тоже! И тем более первоклашек![STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Бетти:[C:C] Ну вот и славненько![STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Бетти:[C:C] Но тогда почему ты вдруг заговорил о #браке между человеком и собакой?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Дил:[C:C] Ну, просто... Я думал обо всех этих #пёсиках в смокингах, и...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Дил:[C:C] ...начал представлять себе собаку в #свадебном платье...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Дил:[C:C] Ну, то есть просто попробовал #представить.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Бетти:[C:C] ...И ты ещё говоришь, что это Я #напилась.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Бетти:[C:C] Тем более, что я-то как раз вовсе не #напилась.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Бетти:[C:C] С другой стороны, когда ты #напиваешься, у тебя ведь только голова #кружиться начинает.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Бетти:[C:C] У тебя вообще предел есть #какой-нибудь? Типа, вырубаешься ли ты #полностью после какой-то дозы спиртного?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Дил:[C:C] Нет, не вырубаюсь. Просто полностью #теряю ориентацию в пространстве и перестаю #что-либо соображать.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Дил:[C:C] Впрочем, если бы я вырубался, мне бы, #наверное, не пришлось иметь дело со всем, что #из этого вытекает. [STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Дил:[C:C] Приходится просто сидеть и ждать целые #сутки, пока спадёт эффект.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Дил:[C:C] Странно, что никто до сих пор не #задумался, зачем лилимов наделили #человеческими недостатками.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] Я читала где-то на эту тему. [STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] Там говорилось, что если лилимы будут #иметь те же слабости, что и люди, то они и #развиваться будут схожим образом.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Бетти:[C:C] Так это поэтому они иногда кусают свои #губы во время еды?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] Похоже на то.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Бетти:[C:C] Тогда у меня возникает вопрос: с какой #именно точностью твоя анатомия повторяет #человеческую?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Дил:[C:C] Это один из вопросов, ответ на который #мне дано знать, а тебе нет.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Бетти:[C:C] Пфф...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] Кому-нибудь из вас что-нибудь налить?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Бетти:[C:C] Да! Я хочу...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Дил:[C:C] Ничего, ты и так уже выпила достаточно.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Бетти:[C:C] Ты мне не мамка, чтобы говорить, что я #могу делать, а что нет![STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Дил:[C:C] Беатрис Альберт, сейчас же прекрати #пить![STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Бетти:[C:C] ...да, мам.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Дил:[C:C] Иди в машину, поспи. Мы всё равно уже #скоро сворачиваемся.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Бетти:[C:C] Ну ма-ам![STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Дил:[C:C] Иди.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Бетти:[C:C] Пфф...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Бетти:[C:C] Прощай, марбен.[XS:bettyhide,1][STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] Прощайте, мисс Бетти.[STOPLIP:]
[SHOW:185,sprite_deal][XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Дил:[C:C] Хм... Не думал, что это сработает. [STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Дил:[C:C] Если бы я не знал, что завтра она уже #ничего из этого не вспомнит, я бы побоялся #последствий.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Дил:[C:C] Кстати, интересно. Почему ты назвала её #«мисс Бетти»? Звучит как имя какой-нибудь #учительницы.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] Не знаю. Может, этикет?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] И что-то в ней такое есть, из-за чего #её хочется назвать именно так. Может, это #из-за лба...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Дил:[C:C] Ясненько...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Дил:[C:C] Ладно, нужно готовиться к отъезду. Прошу #меня простить...[XS:dealhide,1][STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] Удачи.[STOPLIP:]
[SHOW:185,sprite_doge_a][XS:radtalk,1][C:45]Любитель Виверн:[C:C] Эй![STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] Мы закрываемся.[STOPLIP:]

[SHOW:185,sprite_deal][XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Дил:[C:C] Так, все усажены по местам.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Дил:[C:C] Мы поехали, бармен. Спасибо за столь #качественное обслуживание в столь неожиданной #ситуации.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] Это же моя работа. Эм... с вами тоже #было интересно.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Дил:[C:C] Что ж, спасибо. [STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Дил:[C:C] Я обязательно расскажу нашим партнёрам о #том, какое это замечательное место.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] Спасибо, и приходите ещё![STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Дил:[C:C] Обязательно придём.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] Передавай привет мисс Бетти.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Дил:[C:C] С радостью. Ладно, увидимся.[XS:dealhide,1][STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] До скорого.[STOPLIP:]
[SHOW:185,sprite_dana][XS:danaface,worry][XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Дана:[C:C] Всё, закрываемся?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] Ага.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] Похоже, у нас появилась ещё пара #постоянных клиентов.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Дана:[C:C] Да... Было бы круто, если бы они пришли #к нам ещё... Или если бы мы всё ещё были #здесь, когда они захотят вернуться.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] Ты все выходные какая-то странная. Всё #в порядке?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Дана:[C:C] Я-то да, а вот бар нет.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] В смысле?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Дана:[C:C] Ну, думаю, ты имеешь право знать.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Дана:[C:C] В пятницу БТС прислал мне письмо. #Последние пару месяцев «Вальгалла» была не #самым прибыльным заведением.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Дана:[C:C] А это значит, что мы в зоне риска. Нас #могут закрыть. Насовсем.[XS:ph,19][E:31][STOPLIP:]

[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Дана:[C:C] Он был первым работником у нас. В один #прекрасный день этот дуралей купил «зелье #левитации» и сиганул с крыши.[XS:dantalk,0][XS:next,1][STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] О как...[XS:next,1][STOPLIP:]

[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] Точно.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] Если есть только хороший шоколад, то #чуточку похуже на вкус будет казаться #отвратительным.[XS:next,1][STOPLIP:]

[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] Так что вот. Иногда плохое это всего #лишь вопрос восприятия.[XS:next,1][STOPLIP:]
[XS:anface,smug][XS:antalk,1][C:41]Анна:[C:C] Всё равно это не оправдывает плохие #вещи. Ту же смерть, например.[XS:antalk,0][XS:next,1][STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] Хм...[STOPLIP:]

[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] Может, мир вообще существует не так, #как мы думаем, а люди просто не могут этого #понять своим ограниченным разумом.[STOPLIP:]

[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] Что-то такое, что позволяет им #двигаться вперёд, даёт стимул продираться #сквозь сюжет.[STOPLIP:]

[XS:anface,][XS:antalk,1][C:41]Анна:[C:C] «Интересно» от слова «жутко».[XS:antalk,0][STOPLIP:]
[XS:anface,smug][XS:antalk,1][C:41]Анна:[C:C] Оно же не взорвётся мне прямо в лицо, #да?[XS:antalk,0][STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] Нет.[STOPLIP:]

[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] Ну, давай посмотрим...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] Бесплодие, временная слепота, припадки,#химические ожоги, спонтанное самовозгорание, #безумие, грибковые заболевания ног.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:anface,sad][XS:antalk,1][C:41]Анна:[C:C] Зачем тогда люди вообще ходят пить по #таким местам?![XS:antalk,0][STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] Есть те, кто даже растворитель пьёт, #чтобы улететь. У нас он просто ЛЕГАЛЬНЫЙ.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] Ну и, по правде говоря, 60% нашего#обучения посвящена тому, как не убить себя или#кого-то ещё во время приготовления коктейлей.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:anface,][XS:antalk,1][C:41]Анна:[C:C] А остальные 40%?[XS:antalk,0][STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] Методический курс и самозащита.[STOPLIP:]

[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] (По крайней мере, точно не убьёт.)[STOPLIP:]

[SHOW:185,sprite_anna][XS:anface,happy][XS:antalk,1][C:41]Анна:[C:C] Ну как, эффектное появление?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:anface,][XS:antalk,1][C:41]Анна:[C:C] ...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:antalk,1][C:41]Анна:[C:C] Ну же, Джо, соберись! Ты ведь должна #производить хорошее впечатление на #посетителей.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:antalk,1][C:41]Анна:[C:C] Да, я знаю, что ты обслужила стаю корги #в смокингах на тех выходных, и что бар рано #или поздно закроют.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:anface,awayhalf][XS:antalk,1][C:41]Анна:[C:C] ...и да, я признаю, что мой маленький #розыгрыш был слегка через край.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:anface,happy][XS:antalk,1][C:41]Анна:[C:C] Но не забывай, что жизнь это на 90% #то, как ты на неё смотришь. Так что подбери #нюни и взгляни на светлую сторону![STOPLIP:]
[XS:anface,smug][XS:antalk,1][C:41]Анна:[C:C] Я вообще не знаю, где эта самая светлая #сторона, но ты-то её точно найдёшь.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:anface,][XS:antalk,1][C:41]Анна:[C:C] В любом случае, тебе непременно надо #посмотреть, что в том конверте, который ты #только что получила.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:anface,happy][XS:antalk,1][C:41]Анна:[C:C] До скорого![STOPLIP:][XS:ph,-1][E:50][STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] !..[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] Ох... *зевок* это просто сон.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] (Хм? Там под дверью что-то лежит.)[STOPLIP:][XS:ph,-3][E:51][STOPLIP:]
[XS:antalk,1][C:41]Анна:[C:C] Пс-с-с.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:antalk,1][C:41]Анна:[C:C] Эй, посмотри сюда.[STOPLIP:]
[SHOW:185,sprite_anna][XS:anface,happy][XS:antalk,1][C:41]Анна:[C:C] БУ![STOPLIP:]
[XS:antalk,1][C:41]Анна:[C:C] ...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:anface,][XS:antalk,1][C:41]Анна:[C:C] Э? А почему по телеку меня не #показали?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:anface,smug][XS:antalk,1][C:41]Анна:[C:C] Видимо, шутки, повторённые больше двух #раз, теряют свою остроту.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:anface,happy][XS:antalk,1][C:41]Анна:[C:C] Но это неважно. Спасибо, что играешь #снова![STOPLIP:]
[XS:anface,][XS:antalk,1][C:41]Анна:[C:C] И не волнуйся, тебя никто не будет#винить за твои поступки в предыдущем#прохождении. Всё начнётся с чистого листа.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:anface,away][XS:antalk,1][C:41]Анна:[C:C] Ну... или почти чистого.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:anface,][XS:antalk,1][C:41]Анна:[C:C] У Джо будут все её деньги, что остались #у неё к концу прошлой игры.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:antalk,1][C:41]Анна:[C:C] У неё также останутся все её покупочки #и прочие мелочи.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:antalk,1][C:41]Анна:[C:C] И это означает, что, в теории, она может#быть подпольным миллионером, но всё равно#останется на этой тухлой работе бармена.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:antalk,1][C:41]Анна:[C:C] ...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:anface,away][XS:antalk,1][C:41]Анна:[C:C] ...Ну, «приостановку неверия» не зря #умные дяди придумали, да?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:anface,smugsmile][XS:antalk,1][C:41]Анна:[C:C] Но счета всё равно будут приходить по #расписанию, так что будь внимательнее.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:anface,][XS:antalk,1][C:41]Анна:[C:C] Ты уже все концовки открыл? Если нет, #то вот пара советов:[STOPLIP:]
[XS:antalk,1][C:41]Анна:[C:C] Сохранить квартиру или лишить Джо крыши #над головой уже простейшее разветвление #сюжета.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:antalk,1][C:41]Анна:[C:C] Ещё две концовки будут доступны, если #ты на отлично обслужишь пышную душечку и #ушастую милочку.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:antalk,1][C:41]Анна:[C:C] Для одной из них требуется #долготерпение в разговорах с надутым #претенциозным павлином.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:antalk,1][C:41]Анна:[C:C] А другая концовка случится, если ты #угадаешь желания грудастой рободивы.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:antalk,1][C:41]Анна:[C:C] Кстати о титьках. Концовку другой #полногрудой девицы блондиночки ты #получишь, если не будешь совсем мудаком.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:antalk,1][C:41]Анна:[C:C] А с Бекки всё должно быть совсем #просто, если ты запоминаешь, что она #говорит.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:anface,happy][XS:antalk,1][C:41]Анна:[C:C] Итого шесть различных концовок. Собери #их все![STOPLIP:]
[XS:anface,][XS:antalk,1][C:41]Анна:[C:C] Ладно, прости за всю эту болтовню. #Представим, что её не было.[STOPLIP:]

[E:1][STOPLIP:]
[XS:end,][XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] Вкусно. Правда, очень вкусно.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] Вы не представляете, как давно я #хотела отведать карри.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] Я собиралась как-то купить себе, но #разлила коктейли. И их стоимость вычли из #моей зарплаты.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] Это был тяжёлый удар по моему #карману.[STOPLIP:]
[SHOW:0,curry_end_obj][XS:virgiliotalk,1][C:29]Виргилио:[C:C] Это меньшее, чем я могу искупить #свой образ эстетствующего пустобреха.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] Кстати, насчёт этого. Могу я у вас #кое-что спросить, мистер... Тимоти Меркьюри?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:virgiliotalk,1][C:29]Виргилио:[C:C] Так ты знаешь?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] Город тесен. Так вышло, что две милые #девушки стали нашими постоянными клиентами. И #они вам очень благодарны.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:virgiliotalk,1][C:29]Виргилио:[C:C] Так что ты хочешь спросить, госпожа #бармен?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] Зовите меня Джилл.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] Два вопроса, на самом деле.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] Во-первых, зачем они вас заклеймили #предателем? За убийство соратника?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] Не знаю. Звучит как-то странно, #учитывая, что тот человек напал на двух #маленьких девочек.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:virgiliotalk,1][C:29]Виргилио:[C:C] Они хотели привлечь меньше #внимания.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:virgiliotalk,1][C:29]Виргилио:[C:C] Этот мужчина был старше меня по #званию.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:virgiliotalk,1][C:29]Виргилио:[C:C] Офицер высшего ранга, нападающий на #невинных людей? Это просто невообразимо... По #крайней мере, на бумаге.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:virgiliotalk,1][C:29]Виргилио:[C:C] По официальной версии я ранил #девочек и убил его до того, как меня поймали. #Затем я сбежал из под стражи.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:virgiliotalk,1][C:29]Виргилио:[C:C] В реальности же...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] ...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] Мне этого достаточно. Извините, что #подняла эту тему.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:virgiliotalk,1][C:29]Виргилио:[C:C] А как же ваш второй вопрос?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] А, да. Как вы смогли так быстро #открыть это заведение?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:virgiliotalk,1][C:29]Виргилио:[C:C] Город тесен. Вышло так, что две #благодарные мне девушки отыскали меня, чтобы #сказать свое «спасибо».[STOPLIP:]
[XS:virgiliotalk,1][C:29]Виргилио:[C:C] Одна оказалась очень богатой, а #другая заметила, что от меня пахнет карри.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] Хе-хе... Они замечательные, правда?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:virgiliotalk,1][C:29]Виргилио:[C:C] Они не заслужили того, что с ними #сотворил тот подонок.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Стелла:[C:C] Прошу прощения...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:virgiliotalk,1][C:29]Виргилио:[C:C] «Вспомни крыльев ангелиев #шелест...»[STOPLIP:]

[XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Стелла:[C:C] ОООООООООО ДААААА!![STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] Вау, я ещё не видела, чтобы она так #открыто радовалась чему-то.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:seitalk,1][C:17]Сэй:[C:C] Говори тише, а то засмущаешь её.[STOPLIP:]
[SHOW:0,concert_end_obj][XS:seitalk,1][C:17]Сэй:[C:C] Так приятно видеть её счастливой, когда #она не сдерживается и просто веселится.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] Я вам точно не мешаю?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:seitalk,1][C:17]Сэй:[C:C] Конечно нет! Я не хочу быть #единственной, кто не понимает, что здесь #происходит![STOPLIP:]
[XS:seitalk,1][C:17]Сэй:[C:C] Ты правда обслуживала эту *Киру* Мики у #себя в баре?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] Да, и это было круто.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] Очень приятная девушка... Правда, не #очень понимает, какими опасными бывают #некоторые люди.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:seitalk,1][C:17]Сэй:[C:C] Что ты имеешь в виду?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] Ей всё равно, что её постоянно #преследуют фанаты.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:seitalk,1][C:17]Сэй:[C:C] Ого.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] Как твои раны?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:seitalk,1][C:17]Сэй:[C:C] Рука в порядке, глаз хорошо заживает, и #сон у меня теперь спокойный.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] Так что всё-таки произошло внутри #банка?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:seitalk,1][C:17]Сэй:[C:C] Это уже не важно.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:seitalk,1][C:17]Сэй:[C:C] Важно то, что Стелла даст мне работу, #когда я поправлюсь![STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] Правда?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:seitalk,1][C:17]Сэй:[C:C] Она работает над новыми доспехами для #меня. И хочет, чтобы я была её #телохранителем.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:seitalk,1][C:17]Сэй:[C:C] Мне будут платить за то, что я и так #делаю. И ещё я буду больше времени проводить #с ней![STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] Это чудесно.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:seitalk,1][C:17]Сэй:[C:C] Мне бы хотелось помогать большему числу #людей, но для начала и это уже хорошо.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] Хочешь взять закон в свои руки?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:seitalk,1][C:17]Сэй:[C:C] Может быть.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Стелла:[C:C] УРАААААААА!! ОНА УЖЕ ЗДЕСЬ! ЭТО ОНА! #ЭТО ПРАВДА ОНА![STOPLIP:]

[XS:end,][XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Дороти:[C:C] Собственно да, у паренька была #фантазия: он хотел, чтобы девушка его #кастрировала.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Дороти:[C:C] Я целый час пыталась втолковать ему, #почему это плохая идея. И до него наконец-то #дошло в какой-то момент.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Дороти:[C:C] Мы таки дошли до постели... и #оказалось, что у парня был имплант на месте #мошонки.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Дороти:[C:C] По сути это был съёмный мешочек с #яйцами![STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Дороти:[C:C] Похоже, что один раз он уже воплотил #свою фантазию в жизнь.[STOPLIP:]
[SHOW:0,doro_end_obj][XS:antalk,1][C:41]Анна:[C:C] Я как-то видела парня в отделении #скорой помощи, он тоже был кастрирован по #своему желанию.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:antalk,1][C:41]Анна:[C:C] Может, это он и был?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] Хватит уже, мне и одной хватает.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Дороти:[C:C] Одной чего?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] Ээ... Эм...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:antalk,1][C:41]Анна:[C:C] Хихи...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] Вполне хватает одной из твоих #сумасшедших историй, я хотела сказать.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] Сначала твоя история про Нео-Тихуану, #а теперь это. У тебя нет чего-то более... #приличного?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:antalk,1][C:41]Анна:[C:C] Ну же, Джо, ты уже взрослая девочка. Не #стесняйся.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] (Заткнись.)[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Дороти:[C:C] Тут это...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Дороти:[C:C] Когда я говорила со своей мамой в #последний раз, я спросила про её дочь. #Оказалось, её звали Анна.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] Вот как...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:antalk,1][C:41]Анна:[C:C] Ой, только не надо делать вид, что ты #не знала.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] (Тихо, кому сказала.)[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Дороти:[C:C] Большую часть своей жизни она #боролась с отторжением наномашин.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Дороти:[C:C] Она познакомилась в больнице с #девушкой с тем же диагнозом, и они полюбили #друг друга. Но та, к сожалению, умерла.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:antalk,1][C:41]Анна:[C:C] ...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Дороти:[C:C] Так вот, эта Анна излечилась от#отторжения, выписалась из больницы... И почти#сразу после этого её насмерть сбил грузовик.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Дороти:[C:C] Очень жаль... Но какой же она была #удивительной![STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] Да?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:antalk,1][C:41]Анна:[C:C] Да?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Дороти:[C:C] Да! Она даже в больнице продолжала #учиться! Она училась всему сама и с отличием #закончила школу![STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Дороти:[C:C] Кроме того, она входила в пятёрку #главных кандидатов на поступление в сразу три #колледжа![STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Дороти:[C:C] Она ещё играла на пианино и гитаре![STOPLIP:]
[XS:antalk,1][C:41]Анна:[C:C] Если постоянно торчать в одной комнате, #становится скучно.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Дороти:[C:C] Даже здоровые люди могут только #мечтать о таких достижениях...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Дороти:[C:C] А она достигла всего этого сама! С #её-то болезнью![STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Дороти:[C:C] И, ко всему прочему, она ещё и#поборола отторжение наномашин! Мало кто им #заболевает. А уж переживают его ещё меньше![STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Дороти:[C:C] Чтобы остановить её, понадобился#целый грёбаный грузовик! Как же она была#крута! И я ведь в каком-то роде её сестра...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] ...[STOPLIP:]

[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Альма:[C:C] Да? Чем?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:gabytalk,1][C:43]Гэби:[C:C] Тебе всегда удаётся подзадорить Джилл.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:gabytalk,1][C:43]Гэби:[C:C] Сестрёнка всегда говорила, что если #Джилл на кого-то огрызается, этот человек ей #точно нравится.[STOPLIP:]

[XS:gabytalk,1][C:43]Гэби:[C:C] На которой был нарисован огурчик![STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Альма:[C:C] Огурчик?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] Э-эм... АЙ! Что ты забыла у меня в #волосах?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Альма:[C:C] Извини, волосок зацепился за палец.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] Господи...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Альма:[C:C] Значит, я немного похожа на Ленор?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:gabytalk,1][C:43]Гэби:[C:C] Н-нет, ты просто напоминаешь мне её #немного.[STOPLIP:]

[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Альма:[C:C] Не такая же, как?..[STOPLIP:]

[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Дана:[C:C] Не забывай ещё, что ты присматриваешь #за моей квартирой. Наши пути ТОЧНО #пересекутся, ведь я там, блин, живу.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Дана:[C:C] Лучше бы вместо того, чтобы распускать #сопли, спросил бы что-нибудь насчёт #квартиры.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Дана:[C:C] К примеру, где находятся переключатели #и вентили.[STOPLIP:]

[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Дана:[C:C] А я люблю лишний раз поговорить про #свою панель управления. Это же моя гордость.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Дана:[C:C] Кстати, о любви поговорить...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Дана:[C:C] Джилл! Хватит Армитаж названивать! #Присмотрит она за твоей Лункой, не волнуйся.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] Да я не за неё волнуюсь, а за себя![STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] Я же никогда не расставалась с моей #Луночкой! Я же с ума сойду![STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Дана:[C:C] Ничего, переживёшь. Ты четверть века #нормально прожила до того, как её встретила. [STOPLIP:]

[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] Чего?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Дана:[C:C] В смысле «чего»?! Если он захочет #привести туда свою новую девушку, то я должна #быть уверена, что он будет во всеоружии![STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Дана:[C:C] Но есть одно условие. Если будете #трахаться как кролики, держитесь подальше#от моей спальни.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Дана:[C:C] Там слишком много фотографий моей #имоуто, и я не хочу, чтобы она вас видела.[STOPLIP:]

[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Дана:[C:C] Младшая сестра.[STOPLIP:]

[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I have to come.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I threw away everything I had in my #life to be here.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] People I loved were pushed aside #just so I could enjoy my freedom of being #here.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] My stupid, stupid freedom...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] ...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] So I will come here until I die, #even after the bar closes, until my hair #falls out.[STOPLIP:]

[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] All because of a fight I spent all #these years regretting and wishing to, but #never actually apologizing for.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] My decision to assert my freedom and #grab a hold of my life led me to this.[STOPLIP:]

[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] And here, she's surrounded by people #that care about her. [STOPLIP:]

[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] What part of "I won't leave" didn't #you understand?![STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I didn't leave everyone behind to #just sit and do nothing![STOPLIP:]
[XS:gilface,fucked][XS:giltalk,1][C:19]Gillian:[C:C] Fine, fine...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:giltalk,1][C:19]Gillian:[C:C] *sigh* What do we do if she #lashes out at a client?[STOPLIP:]

[SHOW:185,sprite_virgilio][XS:virgiliotalk,1][C:29]Virgilio:[C:C] We meet again, bartender.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] ...Virgilio. What can I get you?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:virgiliotalk,1][C:29]Virgilio:[C:C] Today, the luminous pollution on #the streets makes it seem almost like a #starry sky.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:virgiliotalk,1][C:29]Virgilio:[C:C] And when I think about stars, I #think about celebrities. Celebrities are #fishy and my favorite fish is the octopus.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:virgiliotalk,1][C:29]Virgilio:[C:C] So I want something octopus-like.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] ...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:virgiliotalk,1][C:29]Virgilio:[C:C] Aren't you... gonna do that #weird bartending thing?[STOPLIP:]

[XS:virgiliotalk,1][C:29]Virgilio:[C:C] I'm not following.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Spell out your order like you're a #human who is not in need of medical help.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:virgilioface,serious][XS:virgiliotalk,1][C:29]Virgilio:[C:C] Fine then, I want a Sparkle #Star. S-P-A-R R... kle Star.[STOPLIP:]

[XS:virgilioface,][XS:virgiliotalk,1][C:29]Virgilio:[C:C] You look angry, Spelling #Bartender. Are you having that time of the #month or something?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] No, I'm just filled with ridiculous #amounts of anger, pain, and self-hate, #and...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] ...on second thought, you're not #that far from the truth, I guess.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:virgilioface,dissapoint][XS:virgiliotalk,1][C:29]Virgilio:[C:C] I get those too, you know? #Periods.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] ...you do?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:virgilioface,smug][XS:virgiliotalk,1][C:29]Virgilio:[C:C] Yes. Last month, I finally got #over my Renaissance and moved to my #Enlightenment.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] ...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] And here I was, thinking you'd get #to say something serious for once.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:virgilioface,serious][XS:virgiliotalk,1][C:29]Virgilio:[C:C] Are you implying I'm not serious?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] ...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:virgiliotalk,1][C:29]Virgilio:[C:C] Glaring holes through me will do #nothing. I'm glare-immune![STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] *sigh*[STOPLIP:]
[XS:virgilioface,][XS:virgiliotalk,1][C:29]Virgilio:[C:C] But if you allow me to give you #a sincere piece of advice...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] ...whatever. It's not like it'll #help.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:virgiliotalk,1][C:29]Virgilio:[C:C] You shouldn't kick yourself so #much.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:virgiliotalk,1][C:29]Virgilio:[C:C] If you keep it up, any chance of #finally forgiving yourself will someday be #gone.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:virgiliotalk,1][C:29]Virgilio:[C:C] Self-hate will leave you with a #hole that will never heal.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:virgiliotalk,1][C:29]Virgilio:[C:C] So please take measures against #it instead of sulking so much.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] ...I'll be damned. That actually #sounded half-sensible.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] And here I was thinking you were #just a pompous lunatic.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:virgilioface,serious][XS:virgiliotalk,1][C:29]Virgilio:[C:C] Hey! Pompous lunatics have #stories too![STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Really? What story?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:virgiliotalk,1][C:29]Virgilio:[C:C] I... would rather not tell.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Figures.[STOPLIP:]

[XS:seitalk,1][C:17]Sei:[C:C] I needed something to do some #breathing exercises with, and a harmonica #is a lot smaller than a tuba.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:seiface,happy][XS:seitalk,1][C:17]Sei:[C:C] And I guess if you practice enough, #you become decent.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] That's something I didn't expect.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:seitalk,1][C:17]Sei:[C:C] I hear that a lot. I know I don't #look like the musical type.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I used to play the violin. Right #until I was... 16 or so.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:seiface,][XS:seitalk,1][C:17]Sei:[C:C] Really? Can you still play?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] The violin's at my mom's house, so I #don't have it with me.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] But I guess I could. It's one of #those things you don't forget easily.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:seitalk,1][C:17]Sei:[C:C] Why did you stop?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I don't know. One day, I just felt #like stopping. No deep reason behind it.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:seitalk,1][C:17]Sei:[C:C] Just like me and cooking![STOPLIP:]
[XS:seitalk,1][C:17]Sei:[C:C] That... and almost burning my place #up.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] ...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] When's Stella coming?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:seitalk,1][C:17]Sei:[C:C] Now that you mention it, she's a bit #late. Let me call her.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] You do that, I'm going to take my #break. Tell Gil if you need anything else.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:seitalk,1][C:17]Sei:[C:C] Sure![XS:ph,11][E:15][STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Back.[STOPLIP:]
[SHOW:185,sprite_gil][XS:giltalk,1][C:19]Gillian:[C:C] Looks like you've calmed down.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I still feel like kicking myself, #make no mistake.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] ...but I guess I cooled down a bit.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Sei helped a lot with that one, #though. I just can't stay mad when I #see her.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Speaking of which, where is she?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:giltalk,1][C:19]Gillian:[C:C] I believe she went outside to #look for that Stella girl or something.[XS:gilhide,1][STOPLIP:]
[XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] The way you are right now, it #feels like I should be protecting you.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:seitalk,1][C:17]Sei:[C:C] Hey! The only thing hindering me is #the broken arm. I've gone into burning #buildings with a 2cm deep cut.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] Yeah, I remember that one. 1mm #more and you would've lost the motor #function in your arm.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Welcome.[STOPLIP:]
[SHOW:280,sprite_seiwound][SHOW:120,sprite_stella][XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] Ah. Hello, Jill.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] What's this about protecting who?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:seitalk,1][C:17]Sei:[C:C] Yeah, um... I'm sort of like Stella's #unofficial bodyguard. But I'm not really #fit for such duties right now.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] My father insists I go everywhere #with protection. So most of the time I #only ask Sei if she feels like going out.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] She's trained to deal with the #kind of things that bodyguards deal with #anyway.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:stelface,happy][XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] And she's more fun to hang around #with too.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] So I'm assuming that gorilla outside #is a bodyguard?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:seiface,happy][XS:seitalk,1][C:17]Sei:[C:C] That's Buster. Pretty cool guy. He #played football professionally until he #lost his leg in a demolition derby.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:stelface,concern][XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] We've offered him an implant #surgery for all his years of service, but #he rejects it every time.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:seiface,][XS:seitalk,1][C:17]Sei:[C:C] Well, he got used to the replacement #he's using, so maybe it's for the best.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:stelface,][XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] It's a thick oak branch on a metal #bowl tied to his stump.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:seitalk,1][C:17]Sei:[C:C] And yet he can still run faster than #me with it.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:stelface,][XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] True.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Do you want something?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:seitalk,1][C:17]Sei:[C:C] I'm fine right now.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] A Brandtini. A big one. I'm in a #good mood.[XS:mix,1][XS:ph,2][E:16][STOPLIP:]
[RES:][XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Here.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:stelface,concern][XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] After all these years, I still #don't get why the finest and most #expensive things come in small packages.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:stelface,][XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] Ever tried to go to a restaurant #only for them to serve you a really small #portion of some fine food?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] Sometimes you just want to... #stuff yourself with really cheap food.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] ...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] Sei, let's go for some hamburgers #later. I'm not taking a no for an answer.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:seiface,happy][XS:seitalk,1][C:17]Sei:[C:C] I know what you mean when you say #"some", you know?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:seiface,][XS:seitalk,1][C:17]Sei:[C:C] You might as well call the place and #tell them to prepare everything in #advance.[XS:mix,0][XS:ph,3][E:17][STOPLIP:]
[RES:][XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Here.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:stelface,concern][XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] I guess this means my good mood #is halved now.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:seiface,happy][XS:seitalk,1][C:17]Sei:[C:C] Can't you make up the other half with #the fact that I'm here alive?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:stelface,baka][XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] ...[XS:mix,0][XS:ph,3][E:18][STOPLIP:]
[RES:][XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Here.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:stelface,concern][XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] Aaaaand the good mood's gone.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] That's two of us.[XS:ph,3][E:19][STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Can I ask you two something?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:seiface,][XS:seitalk,1][C:17]Sei:[C:C] Sure![STOPLIP:]
[XS:stelface,][XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] I guess.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] How did you two meet?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:seitalk,1][C:17]Sei:[C:C] Stella showed up in the park I used #to play at when I was a kid. [STOPLIP:]
[XS:seitalk,1][C:17]Sei:[C:C] We played a couple of times. She #started showing up more and more and that #was it.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] *ahem* My father told me that, #when I was 5, I kept insisting on going to #a "real kid's park."[STOPLIP:]
[XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] We drove for some time, and the #park I liked was the one Sei happened to #be at.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:seiface,happy][XS:seitalk,1][C:17]Sei:[C:C] Have you ever seen a girl in a dress #go to a muddy park? [STOPLIP:]
[XS:seitalk,1][C:17]Sei:[C:C] She learned her lesson and started #showing up with more fitting clothes.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:seitalk,1][C:17]Sei:[C:C] But man, that's a scene I can't #forget.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:stelface,baka][XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] ...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] So you two have known each other for #most of your lives?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:seiface,][XS:seitalk,1][C:17]Sei:[C:C] I've known her longer than I've known #my own father.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:seitalk,1][C:17]Sei:[C:C] Why the question?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] No reason. You two just look so #comfortable with each other. Any other #person could've sworn you were an item.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:seiface,sorry][XS:seitalk,1][C:17]Sei:[C:C] A-An item? What kind of item?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:stelface,][XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] ...a couple, Sei.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:seiface,][XS:seitalk,1][C:17]Sei:[C:C] Oh! Ite-... yeah, I get it now.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:seitalk,1][C:17]Sei:[C:C] It's funny because we actually earned #a mock prize of sorts for "best couple" at #Stella's high school. [STOPLIP:]
[XS:stelface,concern][XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] ...Three years in a row.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] So you two didn't go to the same #high school?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:seitalk,1][C:17]Sei:[C:C] Nope.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Oh.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:seitalk,1][C:17]Sei:[C:C] Don't you have any childhood friends, #Jill?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Childhood friends... can't think of #any. My grandpa, I guess.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:stelface,][XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] What kind of man was he?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Gruff. The kind to eat raw Bronson #roots every morning.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:stelface,concern][XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] *brrrrrr*[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] But around me he, was... different. [STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I have memories of him barking #orders to my dad, only to turn around and #play with me gently.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] It's interesting though. He was my #mom's dad. But after my mom and dad #separated, he stayed with my dad.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] But yeah, he's the one that comes to #mind when I think about childhood friends.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:seitalk,1][C:17]Sei:[C:C] Ooooooh.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:seitalk,1][C:17]Sei:[C:C] Hey Jill, what's this... Bloom Light?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] A spicy drink. Tastes nice the first #time but it gets same-y after a while. #It's also brown for some reason.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:seitalk,1][C:17]Sei:[C:C] Gimme one of those, please.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:stelface,][XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] I'll have one too.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] On it.[XS:mix,1][XS:ph,4][E:20][STOPLIP:]
[RES:][XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Here.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:seitalk,1][C:17]Sei:[C:C] I don't know. I kind of like it.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] Yeah, but after the third one, it #starts tasting like sand.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] Spicy sand, but sand nonetheless.[XS:mix,0][XS:ph,5][E:21][STOPLIP:]
[RES:][XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Here.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] Here you go. You have this one.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:seitalk,1][C:17]Sei:[C:C] What are you gonna drink? [STOPLIP:]
[XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] This other one. Bloom Lights taste #like sand to me.[XS:mix,0][XS:ph,5][E:22][STOPLIP:]
[RES:][XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Here you go.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:seiface,sorry][XS:seitalk,1][C:17]Sei:[C:C] I-Is this right?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] First time I'm glad someone messed #up my order.[XS:mix,0][XS:ph,5][E:23][STOPLIP:]
[XS:seiface,sleepy][XS:seitalk,1][C:17]Sei:[C:C] Who's *yawn* dimming the light?[XS:seihide,1][STOPLIP:]
[XS:seitalk,1][C:17]Sei:[C:C] Zzzzzz...[STOPLIP:]
[SHOW:185,sprite_stella][XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] Huh... I guess she had too much #before I came.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] Well, that, and that she must #still be tired.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] From the whole bank thing?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:stelface,concern][XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] She told me about everything that #happened in there. To be honest, I don't #think I would've made it in her place.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] I guess I should be thankful for #the nanomachine treatment she went through #as a White Knight.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Treatment?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:stelface,][XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] Trauma suppressors.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] Basically, it helps with the #healing process of PTSD.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] It's mandatory for every White #Knight, regardless of division.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Oh.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:stelface,concern][XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] Still, healing can only do so much.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] For three days, that bank was #hell. And poor Sei is still paying for it.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] The disbanding of the White Knights #and subsequent persecution of those who #were identifed as former members...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] It's unfair, you know? Among all #the people using the White Knights to #further their own goals...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] Sei was one of the few that #actually believed in what they were #supposed to do.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:stelface,][XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] It paid off though.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] The doctor who treated her wounds #was the same one she's always assisted #with accidents and emergencies.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] He treated her at no cost #whatsoever.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Well, good karma and all that.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] She's earned the gods' favor, I #think.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] ...but you know. All of that made #me realize I might be a bad person.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] How?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:stelface,concern][XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] When I saw Sei, wounded, asking #for help; a part of me was happy. [STOPLIP:]
[XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] After all this time needing her, #she finally needed ME.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] I felt truly useful to her for the #first time.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:stelface,sad][XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] *sigh* How sad is that?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Sometimes the best help one can #provide is to stay alive.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Who knows? Maybe it was the idea of #coming back to you that helped her.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] And I guess you wouldn't be human #without thoughts like those once in a #while.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:stelface,concern][XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] Maybe.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Can I get you anything else?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:stelface,][XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] I'm good. I should be leaving #actually.[XS:ph,6][E:24][STOPLIP:]
[XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] Come, Sei. Let's get hamburgers and #go home.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:seitalk,1][C:17]Sei:[C:C] *mumble* Yeah...[XS:ph,7][E:25][STOPLIP:]
[XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] Sei, come on. We need to go.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:seitalk,1][C:17]Sei:[C:C] *yawn* My mouth's dry...[XS:ph,7][E:26][STOPLIP:]
[XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] We'll be leaving now.[XS:stelhide,1][STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Thank you. Please come again.[XS:client,3][XS:ph,1][E:27][STOPLIP:]
[XS:seiface,][XS:seitalk,1][C:17]Sei:[C:C] You know? Your grandpa reminds me a #bit of Mr. Sirius.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Who?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:stelface,][XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] My father.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] (Stella Hoshii's father is Sirius #Hoshii...)[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] ...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:seiface,happy][XS:seitalk,1][C:17]Sei:[C:C] He's all like "Sell all the stock #before the month ends!" and "We both know #that's not the best price he can offer!"[STOPLIP:]
[XS:seitalk,1][C:17]Sei:[C:C] Then he starts talking with Stella or #me and he becomes all soft spoken and calm.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] Well, what did you expect? If he #behaved like that during business #meetings, they'd eat him alive.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:seiface,][XS:seitalk,1][C:17]Sei:[C:C] Oh yeah, you do that thing about #behaving differently when in business #meetings too.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Really?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:seitalk,1][C:17]Sei:[C:C] Yeah, she acts like a shallow #sochi... so... sooo... cialight...?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] "Socialite".[STOPLIP:]
[XS:seitalk,1][C:17]Sei:[C:C] Yeah! That thing.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Care to elaborate?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] My dadd-... er... father, told me #since I was very young to "cultivate a #shallow, dim-witted, daddy's girl persona".[STOPLIP:]
[XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] "They will lower their guard #thinking you're just another rich daddy's #girl. That's when we strike!" He said.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:seiface,happy][XS:seitalk,1][C:17]Sei:[C:C] Everything about that it's an act... #except the daddy's girl part.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:seitalk,1][C:17]Sei:[C:C] You are the biggest daddy's girl I've #seen.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:stelface,baka][XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] S-Shut up![STOPLIP:]
[XS:seiface,][XS:seitalk,1][C:17]Sei:[C:C] But yeah, Mr. Sirius is one of the #nicest guys I've met. Although Ms. Carmine #isn't too far behind.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Ms. Carmine's your mother?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:stelface,][XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] Yeah. Disappointed her name isn't #star-themed?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Um... n-no. [STOPLIP:]
[XS:seitalk,1][C:17]Sei:[C:C] I really owe it big to her though. #She got my mom some really good clients. #Good enough to let her semi-retire, even.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] Your mom isn't too far behind #though. Being a veterinarian requires #quite the thick skin.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:seitalk,1][C:17]Sei:[C:C] Well, she got bitten enough to #develop one.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] You want anything else?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:seitalk,1][C:17]Sei:[C:C] I want a Beer.[STOPLIP:]

[XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] Buster! Please carry Sei to the #car.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Hey, Stella?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] Yes?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Take care of Sei. Don't lose someone #like her over something stupid.[STOPLIP:]

[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Smell?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:stelface,concern][XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] You usually just LOOK gloomy... #but today, your face is making me feel down![STOPLIP:]
[XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] What happened to you?![STOPLIP:]
[XS:seiface,sorry][XS:seitalk,1][C:17]Sei:[C:C] Stella, it's time we left.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] I'll leave after she tells me #what happened![STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] *sigh* Let's just say I said some #mean things to someone and now I can't #make amends for it.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:stelface,surprise][XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] ...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] IIIIIIIIIIdiot. You're an idiot![STOPLIP:]
[XS:seitalk,1][C:17]Sei:[C:C] Stella![STOPLIP:]
[XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] If you said mean things and you're #sorry, just say you're sorry![STOPLIP:]
[XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] A friendship isn't worth a bit of #pride![STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Heh...[STOPLIP:]

[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] "Learn from your mistakes"... I #guess that's all that's left.[XS:client,3][XS:ph,1][E:34][STOPLIP:]

[XS:stelface,surprise][XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] Seeeeeeeeeeei! Wake uuuuuuuuuuuuup![STOPLIP:]

[SHOW:185,sprite_gil][XS:giltalk,1][C:19]Gillian:[C:C] Feeling better?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] No, I just don't reek of rage.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] But I still feel like a piece of #shit.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:giltalk,1][C:19]Gillian:[C:C] Little steps, I guess.[XS:gilhide,1][STOPLIP:]
[XS:kimtalk,1][C:22]Kim:[C:C] Hello?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Ah, Kim. Welcome.[STOPLIP:]
[SHOW:185,sprite_kim][XS:kimtalk,1][C:22]Kim:[C:C] I was afraid I'd mix up the #directions and end up in someone's #house or something.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] What can I get you?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:kimtalk,1][C:22]Kim:[C:C] I'll have a Sunshine Cloud, please.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Sure.[XS:mix,1][XS:ph,2][E:36][STOPLIP:]
[RES:][XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Here.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:kimtalk,1][C:22]Kim:[C:C] Thanks![XS:mix,0][XS:ph,3][E:37][STOPLIP:]
[RES:][XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Here.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:kimtalk,1][C:22]Kim:[C:C] This isn't my order... did I arrive #at a bad time?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] *ahem*[XS:mix,0][XS:ph,3][E:38][STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] So, how's work on the webpaper?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:kimtalk,1][C:22]Kim:[C:C] Oh, I quit.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] ...what?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:kimtalk,1][C:22]Kim:[C:C] Yup! I went to the office of that #chauvinistic horseblower and told him I #quit![STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Why did you do that?[XS:ph,4][E:39][STOPLIP:]
[XS:kimface,sleep][XS:kimtalk,1][C:22]Kim:[C:C] *sigh* Well, after I got drunk and #overslept, I missed some assignments.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:kimtalk,1][C:22]Kim:[C:C] My supervisor yelled at me for being #late. I got the mandatory bullying...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:kimface,mad][XS:kimtalk,1][C:22]Kim:[C:C] So at some point I just kinda snapped #and said that I didn't have to put up with #that.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:kimface,][XS:kimtalk,1][C:22]Kim:[C:C] So I quit.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Ah, I see.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Um... Sorry again about that by the #way.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:kimtalk,1][C:22]Kim:[C:C] Oh, don't worry. I should be the one #apologizing.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:kimtalk,1][C:22]Kim:[C:C] Lashing out like that the next day #and all.[XS:ph,5][E:40][STOPLIP:]
[XS:kimtalk,1][C:22]Kim:[C:C] I arrived early to my meeting and got #some assignment.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:kimface,sleep][XS:kimtalk,1][C:22]Kim:[C:C] I spent hours doing it, only for the #other bitches to come and ruin it.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:kimtalk,1][C:22]Kim:[C:C] After that, I didn't have time left #so my supervisor scolded me.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:kimface,][XS:kimtalk,1][C:22]Kim:[C:C] So I snapped and quit on a whim.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Oh...[XS:ph,5][E:41][STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Don't you have any second thoughts? #Regret anything?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:kimtalk,1][C:22]Kim:[C:C] I guess you'll always have second #thoughts. Even if you do what you want, #you'll still think "what if".[STOPLIP:]
[XS:kimface,sleep][XS:kimtalk,1][C:22]Kim:[C:C] Even so, I was getting physically #sick there. I dreaded the arrival of every #morning. I even almost...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:kimtalk,1][C:22]Kim:[C:C] ...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:kimface,][XS:kimtalk,1][C:22]Kim:[C:C] What I'm saying is: I don't know what #I'll do, but it's certainly better than #being there.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:kimtalk,1][C:22]Kim:[C:C] I feel... free.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] (Free...)[STOPLIP:]
[XS:kimtalk,1][C:22]Kim:[C:C] It's a wonderful feeling, you know? I #feel like now I can find something I care #about.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:kimtalk,1][C:22]Kim:[C:C] I won't return to The Augmented Eye, #but I could still pursue journalism with #another outlet.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:kimtalk,1][C:22]Kim:[C:C] I haven't felt like this in... #well... never![STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] ...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] *ahem*[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] What about your family?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:kimface,sleep][XS:kimtalk,1][C:22]Kim:[C:C] They weren't happy, that's for sure...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:kimtalk,1][C:22]Kim:[C:C] My dad took it better, but my mom #freaked out, to put it mildly.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:kimtalk,1][C:22]Kim:[C:C] "What are you gonna do?!" and all #that.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:kimtalk,1][C:22]Kim:[C:C] *sigh* But I'm not here about that. #Give me a big drink, please.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] What kind?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:kimface,][XS:kimtalk,1][C:22]Kim:[C:C] I don't know... bubbly or something.[XS:mix,1][XS:ph,6][E:42][STOPLIP:]
[RES:][XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Here.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:kimtalk,1][C:22]Kim:[C:C] If detergent commercials are to be #believed, this will clean out my insides.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] It'll also kill things inside you.[XS:mix,0][XS:ph,7][E:43][STOPLIP:]
[RES:][XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Here.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:kimtalk,1][C:22]Kim:[C:C] It's big but... ah well, I didn't #care that much about which drink it was #anyways.[XS:mix,0][XS:ph,7][E:44][STOPLIP:]
[RES:][XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Here.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:kimtalk,1][C:22]Kim:[C:C] I didn't particularly care about the #drink this time around but...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:kimtalk,1][C:22]Kim:[C:C] ...no, nevermind.[XS:mix,0][XS:ph,7][E:45][STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I gotta ask though. How did you end #up working there?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:kimtalk,1][C:22]Kim:[C:C] No deep reason. That's what I did #when I got out of high school.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:kimtalk,1][C:22]Kim:[C:C] Taking a year off was out of the #question so I went for the first thing #I thought about.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:kimface,sleep][XS:kimtalk,1][C:22]Kim:[C:C] ...but I couldn't get into the #robotics course, so I settled for #journalism.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:kimtalk,1][C:22]Kim:[C:C] ...to be honest, I got tired of the #job midway through it, but I couldn't #bring myself to leave.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:kimtalk,1][C:22]Kim:[C:C] *sigh* Too much pressure from my #family.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] It's a really common tale, I guess.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:kimface,][XS:kimtalk,1][C:22]Kim:[C:C] Did you have troubles like those?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Same story as you. I just... went #through the motions.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] From high school to college, I never #stopped to think about what I was doing.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] And then, at some point, I just felt #like my life slipped through my fingers.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Suddenly all I wanted was freedom, a #little pause. To stop and take a breather.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] ...and my life went to hell for that #fucking breather.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] ...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:kimtalk,1][C:22]Kim:[C:C] Ehhhh... um... g-give me a... err... #SOMETHING![STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] "Something"?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:kimtalk,1][C:22]Kim:[C:C] S-Sorry. I just have a dry mouth. #Anything will do.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Alright...[XS:mix,1][XS:ph,8][E:46][STOPLIP:]
[RES:][XS:mix,0][XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Here.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:kimtalk,1][C:22]Kim:[C:C] Thanks.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:kimtalk,1][C:22]Kim:[C:C] ...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:kimface,sleep][XS:kimtalk,1][C:22]Kim:[C:C] I feel like I asked something I #shouldn't have.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Don't fret about it. I'm just in #a... rough spot right now.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] What are you gonna do now?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:kimface,][XS:kimtalk,1][C:22]Kim:[C:C] Honestly... I don't know.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:kimtalk,1][C:22]Kim:[C:C] I do feel liberated, however.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:kimtalk,1][C:22]Kim:[C:C] Like... I can do whatever I want. #Study whatever I like, work wherever I #want.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:kimtalk,1][C:22]Kim:[C:C] I know it's not that way and it won't #be easy... but I feel a lot more confident #than when I was out of high school.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:kimtalk,1][C:22]Kim:[C:C] I honestly don't get why they put #young people who barely know how society #works through that one.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Well, I wish you the best of luck.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Your mental health should be your #priority and all that.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:kimtalk,1][C:22]Kim:[C:C] Thanks. I really needed the #encouragement.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Come back if you need more #encouragement.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I wouldn't dare leave someone alone #when it comes to this sort of thing.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:kimtalk,1][C:22]Kim:[C:C] Thanks! Bye Jill.[XS:kimhide,1][STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Please come again.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] *sigh*[STOPLIP:]
[XS:giltalk,1][C:19]Gillian:[C:C] You should take some of that #advice for yourself.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I know, I know...[STOPLIP:]
[SHOW:185,sprite_gil][XS:giltalk,1][C:19]Gillian:[C:C] Let's call it a day for now. You #need some rest.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] ...yeah.[XS:gilhide,1][STOPLIP:]

[SHOW:185,sprite_doro][XS:doroface,pachi][XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Ah, Dorothy. Sorry, we're just #closing.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:doroface,pachi][XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] I know. I came for you![STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] For me?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] W-Why are you hugging me?[STOPLIP:]
[SHOW:120,sprite_doro][SHOW:280,sprite_dana][XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] I paid her to do that.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] All. Night. Long.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] ...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Come again? [STOPLIP:]
[XS:danaface,closedsmile][XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] To put it simply: Dorothy will go #home with you and she won't leave your #side.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] What do you hope to accomplish with #that?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:danaface,worry][XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] Well, at first it was to calm that #rage you had earlier. [STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] It was either hugs or a cold #bucket... and I don't promise there'll #be any water in it.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:danaface,][XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] You calmed down a bit. But honestly, #I know better than to leave you alone for #another night.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] At the very least, all the cuddling #will give you an epiphany or something.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] That's some alien reasoning right #there.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:danaface,worry][XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] It's not. You need hugs. Many.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] You need some human... err... #humanoid contact right now.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:danaface,][XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] You had your alone time. Now, we're #playing by my rules.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] Please take care of me.[STOPLIP:]

[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] You heard me.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:gilface,][XS:giltalk,1][C:19]Gillian:[C:C] So, on a scale from "steaming #pile of shit" to just "sad", where are you?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Hm...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] A sad pile of shit.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I still hate myself, I'm still sad #as hell, but... how to put it... the noise #stopped.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I don't know if I explained myself.[STOPLIP:]

[SHOW:120,sprite_dana][SHOW:280,sprite_gil][XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] So, how were things last night?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] ...cozy, I must admit.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I can't believe you paid Dorothy for #that.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:danaface,][XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] Well, if you wanna call that #payment, I guess.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Hm?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:danaface,][XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] I called Dorothy to tell her what #happened to you and she was really #concerned.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] She stuttered for a second saying #that she had the whole night to go and she #couldn't just leave for free.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] I asked her how much and she said, #"Enough to pay for this soda I'm having is #fine."[STOPLIP:]

[XS:nachotalk,1][C:35]Nacho:[C:C] Soldier, why didn't you tell me you #were working for Dana?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:radtalk,1][C:32]Rad Shiba:[C:C] No, that's not Dana. That's #just J.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] ...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] So I'm guessing you're part of this #whole CIRA thing.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:nachotalk,1][C:35]Nacho:[C:C] Part of it? I FOUNDED it![STOPLIP:]
[XS:nachotalk,1][C:35]Nacho:[C:C] Humans have the best intentions, #but they just don't get us.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:nachotalk,1][C:35]Nacho:[C:C] So I decided to create a place #where dogs can be dogs. [STOPLIP:]
[XS:nachotalk,1][C:35]Nacho:[C:C] "Here, we can take in any dog #without a place in this world."[STOPLIP:]
[XS:nachotalk,1][C:35]Nacho:[C:C] We created our own heaven on earth.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] And do you take Corgis only?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:nachotalk,1][C:35]Nacho:[C:C] Do I look like one of those Seifar #bitches? Of course not![STOPLIP:]
[XS:nachotalk,1][C:35]Nacho:[C:C] I'd include other animals, but #sadly I can only take care of those who #are of the same species as I.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] (Sad thing is, I'd take him more #seriously... but it's a talking Corgi with #an eyepatch.)[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Will you get anything?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:radtalk,1][C:32]Rad Shiba:[C:C] I'm fine. What about you, boss?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:nachotalk,1][C:35]Nacho:[C:C] Manly stuff.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] ...you sure?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:nachotalk,1][C:35]Nacho:[C:C] Did I stutter?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] ...alright.[XS:mix,1][XS:ph,3][E:3][STOPLIP:]
[RES:][XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Here.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:nachotalk,1][C:35]Nacho:[C:C] Yes! This is just what I wanted.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:nachotalk,1][C:35]Nacho:[C:C] ...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:nachotalk,1][C:35]Nacho:[C:C] BLEGH! This tastes worse than my #own butt.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Hey, you asked for it.[XS:mix,0][XS:ph,4][E:4][STOPLIP:]
[RES:][XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Here.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:nachotalk,1][C:35]Nacho:[C:C] This looks good.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:nachotalk,1][C:35]Nacho:[C:C] ...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:nachotalk,1][C:35]Nacho:[C:C] BLEGH! This tastes worse than cat #poo.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] ...right.[XS:mix,0][XS:ph,4][E:5][STOPLIP:]
[RES:][XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Here.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:nachotalk,1][C:35]Nacho:[C:C] Are you underestimating me, kid?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:nachotalk,1][C:35]Nacho:[C:C] I'll let you know I was the top #graduate from my paw to hand combat #class.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Did you really?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:nachotalk,1][C:35]Nacho:[C:C] Yes! I was the only one to follow #MMAJunkie2040's video tutorials to the #end.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I see.[XS:mix,0][XS:ph,4][E:6][STOPLIP:]
[XS:nachotalk,1][C:35]Nacho:[C:C] This is a really nice place, you #know?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:nachotalk,1][C:35]Nacho:[C:C] You picked a good place to work at, #soldier.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:radtalk,1][C:32]Rad Shiba:[C:C] Thanks![STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] (Does he really get paid?)[STOPLIP:]
[XS:nachotalk,1][C:35]Nacho:[C:C] Your efforts to keep CIRA afloat #will not go to waste! We'll make her #better and better![STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] (I mean, we're pretty much on the #verge of closing. Can Boss really #afford that?)[STOPLIP:]
[XS:nachotalk,1][C:35]Nacho:[C:C] We have more urgent matters at hand #though. Like the fact we don't have enough #balls for everyone![STOPLIP:]
[XS:radtalk,1][C:32]Rad Shiba:[C:C] Can't they just share the ones #we have?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:nachotalk,1][C:35]Nacho:[C:C] You fool! Every dog has a right to #have his own ball![STOPLIP:]
[XS:nachotalk,1][C:35]Nacho:[C:C] If we can't provide even that, then #what's the point of even trying?![STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] (Wait... don't tell me she just #doesn't give a fuck and is spending all of #her money like water.)[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] (I mean, what with the bar closing #and all that.)[STOPLIP:]
[XS:radtalk,1][C:32]Rad Shiba:[C:C] But many have enjoyed the boxes #more than they do the balls![STOPLIP:]
[XS:nachotalk,1][C:35]Nacho:[C:C] That's a good point.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:nachotalk,1][C:35]Nacho:[C:C] What do you think is cheaper, a box #of balls or a box of boxes?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:radtalk,1][C:32]Rad Shiba:[C:C] Are there boxes of boxes?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:nachotalk,1][C:35]Nacho:[C:C] Of course there are! How do you #think they ship boxes?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:radtalk,1][C:32]Rad Shiba:[C:C] Tied together?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:nachotalk,1][C:35]Nacho:[C:C] Tied together? Don't be silly.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] (Unless she's paying him straight #from her pocket. Boss is that kind of #woman.)[STOPLIP:]
[XS:nachotalk,1][C:35]Nacho:[C:C] This world is filled with all sort #of recursive madness, you know?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:nachotalk,1][C:35]Nacho:[C:C] Doctors consult doctors, boxes come #in boxes, bottles come in bottles.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:radtalk,1][C:32]Rad Shiba:[C:C] Ooooooh, as expected from you, #boss.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] (Wait... that theory only works #assuming she's actually paying him with #money.) [STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] (For all I know, she might be paying #him with steaks.)[STOPLIP:]
[XS:nachotalk,1][C:35]Nacho:[C:C] So tomorrow you're gonna check for #people selling boxes, you hear?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:radtalk,1][C:32]Rad Shiba:[C:C] Sir, yes sir![STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] (...except that to Boss, a good #steak is more valuable than money.)[STOPLIP:]
[XS:radtalk,1][C:32]Rad Shiba:[C:C] Wait, what if they come with #foil? [STOPLIP:]
[XS:radtalk,1][C:32]Rad Shiba:[C:C] Russenstrauss had to be taken #to the vet because he ate the foil a piece #of cheese came in.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:nachotalk,1][C:35]Nacho:[C:C] Curses! You're right. We need a #contingency plan.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] (Besides, Boss is not one to scam #people, let alone a dog...)[STOPLIP:]
[XS:nachotalk,1][C:35]Nacho:[C:C] I wonder if we can strike a deal #with the vet those Seifar bastards have.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:nachotalk,1][C:35]Nacho:[C:C] She's always so nice with us.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:radtalk,1][C:32]Rad Shiba:[C:C] I know. Her smile is so cute #too.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:radtalk,1][C:32]Rad Shiba:[C:C] So it's better that we vet for #a vet?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:nachotalk,1][C:35]Nacho:[C:C] Yes, put that on the list.[STOPLIP:]
[SHOW:185,sprite_dana][XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] Ah, Nacho.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] (Oh yeah, forgot she knew the dog.)[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] Are you staying for a while?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:nachotalk,1][C:35]Nacho:[C:C] I was just passing by, I've got #some errands to run.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] Great! Gil can go with you.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:giltalk,1][C:19]Gillian:[C:C] I can?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:danaface,worry][XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] You WILL.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:giltalk,1][C:19]Gillian:[C:C] I'll still get paid for today, #right?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:danaface,][XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] That depends on Nacho's evaluation.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:nachotalk,1][C:35]Nacho:[C:C] Alright, greenhorn! Let's get going![XS:nahide,1][STOPLIP:]
[XS:giltalk,1][C:19]Gillian:[C:C] *sigh*[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] Oh, I'm paying him anyways, by the #way. Just wanted to mess around with him.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] No, that's not the problem here.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Why make him do that?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] Gil looked like he needed to take a #good break, and he's the kind to just not #accept such a thing.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] But with Nacho, he'd have SOMETHING #to do. AND he'd be away from the bar for a #bit.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] When you put it that way...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] Anyway, I'm going back to my office.[XS:danhide,1][STOPLIP:]

[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] So, you having anything?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:radtalk,1][C:32]Rad Shiba:[C:C] Actually, I'm just gonna go sit #over there and be on standby. Await orders.[XS:radhide,1][STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Okay.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] ...shit, I missed the chance to ask #how, or if he even gets paid with money.[XS:client,2][XS:ph,1}[E:7][STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] Man, I sure need to get wasted.[STOPLIP:]

[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] For fuck's sake, you piece of #scrap, we just got out of a building full #of dogs.[STOPLIP:]

[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Just a Beer, then.[STOPLIP:]

[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] How so?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] You look down, or at least lost in #thought.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I do?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] I mean, it's not like you're a #really expressive girl, but you don't have #that... um... sharp look.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I've been through some stuff lately, #but I'm getting better. Don't worry.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] If you say so...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] That's still no excuse for messing #my drink though.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Sorry...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Lots of people have noticed that I'm #not all that okay. Is it that obvious?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] You usually look more attentive. #But you are looking a bit lost now.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettyface,grumpy][XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] It's hard to put into words.[XS:ph,4][E:12][STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettyface,][XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] Hey Jill, do you like Beer?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] The amount of Beer cans in my #apartment is becoming a problem, actually.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] I had this friend back in high #school who made some pretty nice crafts #with them.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] I'm still in contact with him if #you're interested.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] No, thanks. The last thing I need #right now is more crap taking space.[XS:ph,4][E:13][STOPLIP:]

[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] Well, that Laura girl is stirring #things up, for better or for worse.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] For worse?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettyface,sigh][XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] She's... um... like a rabbit.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] An overtly politically-correct #rabbit.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] R-Rabbit?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettyface,][XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] Never had a pet rabbit? They're a #nervous mess that gets startled over the #littlest of things.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] And this girl is on the constant #lookout, scared of saying something that #might irk someone. [STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] It doesn't have to be the person #she's speaking with, even.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] It's no problem in the company, but #the other day, we went out together and #holy shit! [STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettyface,sigh][XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] Poor girl can't speak properly.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] She pauses every sentence to make #sure she doesn't say something offensive.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] She's a nice girl, and it's sweet #that she tries so hard to not offend #anyone.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] ...but seriously, she tries too #hard.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Deal:[C:C] You don't help either.[STOPLIP:]
[SHOW:280,sprite_deal][SHOW:120,sprite_betty][XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Hm?[STOPLIP:]

[XS:bettyface,grumpy][XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] Yeah, well...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettyface,][XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] It's just that... she looks so cute #when she's startled.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] Like a rabbit.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Deal:[C:C] It raises up the question of #whether she's really like that...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Deal:[C:C] ...or if you're the one making her #wary of anything she says.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] Well, why don't we test that?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Deal:[C:C] How?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] You go out with her.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Deal:[C:C] Why?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] To test if it's really me who makes #her like that.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Deal:[C:C] ...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] It's not like you can say no, you #know?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] I mean, it's my honor that's on the #line here.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] I wanna prove you're only talking #shit about me.[XS:ph,5][E:14][STOPLIP:]

[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] I got drunk. Aaaaaaand that's all I #remember after that.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Deal:[C:C] You were rambling about her being #head over heels for me or something like #that.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettyface,grumpy][XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] I-I did? Damn, I need to keep my #mouth shut when drunk.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettyface,][XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] Well, It's not like I'm trying to #do that. You know?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Deal:[C:C] ...right.[XS:ph,6][E:15][STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Deal:[C:C] Even if you were right, you have... #quite the fixation on that girl.[STOPLIP:]

[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Deal:[C:C] Fun how?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] She actually reacts when I tease #her.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Deal:[C:C] ...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] You take it in your stride, but she #actually gets startled, squirms and then #gets uncomfortable![STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Deal:[C:C] How is that any good?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] She's cute and her reactions are #cute.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Deal:[C:C] But if you keep it up, she'll #either leave or get used to you.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Deal:[C:C] You know... like me.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettyface,grumpy][XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] Shit. You're right.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] I must save my teasing for when #the moment is just right, then.[STOPLIP:]

[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] It is for me.[XS:ph,6][E:16][STOPLIP:]

[XS:bettyface,][XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] I wouldn't know. We get along as #co-workers at the very least.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Deal:[C:C] ...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] What kind of girl is she? Aside from #the whole politically-correct rabbit... #thing.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] Slow.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] She's the kind that does things so #carefully that she does them really, #really slowly.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] Really, REALLY slowly.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] I can't deny that when she actually #finishes stuff, she does a great job, but...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettyface,sigh][XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] It's unnerving.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Deal:[C:C] She doesn't actually have to be with #us in the building though. She's more like #a freelancer.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Why is she there then?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettyface,][XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] Because she likes dogs.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] And that's why I insist that you #two would make a fine couple.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Deal:[C:C] That's a really superficial #statement. It's like saying you'd be fine #with someone because you're both women.[STOPLIP:]

[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Deal:[C:C] Okay... bad example.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] May I say something?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Deal:[C:C] By all means.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] If that Laura girl is really as... #bland as you claim her to be, wouldn't she #be better off with a more... um...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] A more assertive person... Lilim... uh... [STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] A more assertive partner?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] Yo, piece o' scrap, she's totally #calling you a pussy.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] ...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Deal:[C:C] She's right though.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Deal:[C:C] Sharing interests and being #compatible are totally different things.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] But then, you'd be underestimating #the power of LOOOOOOOOOVE.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] Whether you want to admit it or #not, love changes people for better or for #worse.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] Who knows? Maybe you'll become more #assertive after spending time with her.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Deal:[C:C] Or she'll drive me nuts.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] I guess that's a possibility too.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Deal:[C:C] Still, why are you so insistent on #me and her getting together?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] Because she's like a cute rabbit... #so someone might try to eat her out there.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] It'd be a lot easier to keep her in #my sight.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Deal:[C:C] So in short, your motherly instincts #arose because of Laura.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Deal:[C:C] *sigh* Why not see if she likes you #and-...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Deal:[C:C] ...you already tried to hit on her, #didn't you?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettyface,grumpy][XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] You make me sound like some #skirt-chaser.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Deal:[C:C] ...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] ...she's not into girls.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Deal:[C:C] How did you find out?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettyface,][XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] I asked her directly.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Deal:[C:C] Of course you did.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] She seemed... um... giddy #afterwards though.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] I heard her muttering something #about meeting her first lesbian...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettyface,sigh][XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] It was weird.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Deal:[C:C] Okay... enough Laura for a night.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettyface,][XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] That-...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Deal:[C:C] Refrain from using any "That's what #you said last night" jokes or variations #thereof. Please.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettyface,grumpy][XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] ...party pooper.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] Let's get a drink then.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Deal:[C:C] Sounds good.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Deal:[C:C] I'll have a Bloom Light, please.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettyface,][XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] Get me a Fringe Weaver.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Alright.[XS:ph,7][XS:mix,1][E:17][STOPLIP:]
[RES:][XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Here you go.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Deal:[C:C] I wonder why it's called a Bloom Light.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Seems it was first developed at some #video games event.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] The creator said something about #making the attendees feel like their #customers do.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Said attendees were, of course, #part of some big games company.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Seems that company always used too much #bloom lighting, so the bartender there #literally made them drink all the bloom.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] So it's not called that #because it glows in the dark?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Not this one, no.[XS:ph,8][XS:mix,0][E:18][STOPLIP:]
[RES:][XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Here.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] First, she calls you a pussy, and #now she messes up your drink?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] If I were you, I'd be mad.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] No, wait. If I were you, I'd do #nothing and let it slide.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Deal:[C:C] It's better than getting thrown out #of a restaurant because you insulted the #head chef.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] That meat was raw and you know it![STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Deal:[C:C] It was Venison Tartare.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] Your point being?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Deal:[C:C] ...[XS:ph,8][XS:mix,0][E:19][STOPLIP:]
[RES:][XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Here.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] I don't mind if you're apologizing #for calling him a pussy, you've still #messed up my drink.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Deal:[C:C] She might not be apologizing to me, #you know?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] Then that'd mean she's holding a #grudge against me instead![STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] My god, that stoic look of yours #almost got my guard down.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] ...[XS:ph,8][XS:mix,0][E:20][STOPLIP:]
[RES:][XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Here.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] Why two of these?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Because... you're a... blooming #beauty?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] That's bullshit, but I believe it.[XS:ph,8][XS:mix,0][E:21][STOPLIP:]
[RES:][XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Here.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettyface,sigh][XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] *sigh* Not a single drink right.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] S-Sorry.[XS:ph,8][XS:mix,0][E:22][STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettyface,][XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] Come to think of it. Did you ever #change because of a relationship, Jill?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] ...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] In more ways than one, I guess.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] Would you say for better or for #worse?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I guess for the better. I'm too #thick-headed to develop any new bad #habits.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Although thanks to my first boyfriend, #I did pick up a very annoying habit of #correcting people's grammar on the fly.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Pretty annoying when I think back to #it.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] So you were one of those kinds of #people.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] As for me, sometimes I think I #became more... err... what's the word?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Deal:[C:C] Cynical? Jaded? Bitter? Tired of the #crap this world and everyone in it throws #on a daily basis?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettyface,grumpy][XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] Hey...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Deal:[C:C] I'm just quoting you.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettyface,sigh][XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] *sigh* But yeah. I think I became #all that because of this one girlfriend I #had in college.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] She got me into the whole activism #thing in the first place.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Deal:[C:C] How is that bad?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettyface,][XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] We'd all go and protest. We'd start #all kinds of movements to see things #changed...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] I really got into the whole thing.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] But whenever I wanted to get more #serious, I'd find myself coming up against #a wall.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] That wall is an analogy for the #fact that not everyone was willing to #go that far.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettyface,sigh][XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] I found out pretty fast that most #of them were in the whole thing because of #some shitty fad.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] And not because they actually believed #in whatever movement they were championing.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettyface,][XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] So I moved from group to group, only #to find people who were in it because of a #fad.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] And when they were not in it because #of a passing fad, they were of the dangerous #extremist kind.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettyface,grumpy][XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] My tolerance for people's shit was #greatly diminished after all that.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] So it wasn't so much the person you #had a relationship with, but rather other #people.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] ...um.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Deal:[C:C] You seriously never thought about it #that way?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] Uh...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Deal:[C:C] You need to stop putting the blame #for what you do on past relationships.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] Whatever![XS:ph,9][E:23][STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettyface,][XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] So, how did you spend last #Saturday, Jill?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Well, I had to sleep here. The #streets were too messy.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Thank god my boss escorted to my #place on Sunday.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Deal:[C:C] We arrived at work on Monday only to #find all the dogs hiding behind the desks.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Deal:[C:C] Some were trying to open a hole in #the floor, so the carpet's ruined.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Oh yeah... I guess they're dogs #after all.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Wait, they spent the whole time #there?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Deal:[C:C] They have food, water and a #bathroom. Not to mention advanced security #measures.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Deal:[C:C] Their owners probably thought it'd #be safer for them to stay there.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] If you ask me, the whole thing had #to happen.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] Given all the gunshots and madness #going on, the White Knights had to show #their true faces sooner or later.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Deal:[C:C] Yeah, but think of all the people #that died because of that.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Deal:[C:C] Not only here, but in the Apollo #Trust Bank too.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettyface,grumpy][XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] Of course I'm angry all of that #happened. A friend's boyfriend died in one #of those riots.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettyface,sigh][XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] But in the end, they showed people #outside of the city that there's a lot of #corruption and chaos taking place here.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettyface,][XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] Having neighboring cities intervene #in the riots is evidence enough that they #realized the magnitude of the problem.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] You'd think with the world pretty #much connected, everyone would realize #stuff like that.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] Many know about it. They just say #"Man, that's horrible" and move on.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] Then again, net activism can only #get you so far with this kind of stuff.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] It's not like a bunch of people #expressing their concerns online will do #that much of a difference.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] But if they at least get to know #how bad things are around here, instead of #just knowing they're 'bad'... [STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Deal:[C:C] Aren't you seeing that with a harsh #sort of "to each their own" mentality?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] How so?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Deal:[C:C] Many people leave the city, but not #of their own volition.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Deal:[C:C] They do it because they have a #better opportunity outside. But they still #have families here.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Deal:[C:C] Many have visited the city in better #times, and it hurts them to see it like #this.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Deal:[C:C] Problem is that written words usually #fail to convey the emotion needed...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Deal:[C:C] But I bet many of them would do what #they can.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] ...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] ...from a more cynical standpoint...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Having revealed the White Knights as #the "bad guys" with the help of #irrefutable evidence..[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Anyone who gets involved against #them gets a free PR boost. [STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I heard a neighboring city had a #problem with weapons being smuggled into #prisons...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] And it all went under the radar #because they helped with the situation #here.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] It's not too bad if we benefit from #people looking to get into that bandwagon.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Especially if it helps us with this #situation.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] See, piece o' junk? She understands #how to get her idea through to me.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I like his idealist standpoint a lot #more though.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] You'd be surprised at the nice #things people can and will do to help #others.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Deal:[C:C] Yeah![XS:ph,9][E:24][STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] Where's the other guy, by the way?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] He... had to escort one of the dogs #outside.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] Figures.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Deal:[C:C] Oh, yeah. The one that was here #asked if you were "the nice vet lady that #works at the Seifar Toy Company."[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Deal:[C:C] I suppose he's interested in talking #to you or something.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] Why didn't he do it then?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Deal:[C:C] I don't know.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Deal:[C:C] You've been doing a few jobs on the #side, haven't you?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettyface,grumpy][XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] The pay from the dogs isn't enough #to keep up with the mounting debts. I #don't know how you do it.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] (It's hard to believe dogs pay you #at all...)[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] (...but this is coming from someone #working at a place that pays a dog for #doing fuck all.)[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] (Or at least I THINK we're paying #him. I'm not completely certain we do.)[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Will you get anything else?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettyface,][XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] Well...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Deal:[C:C] We're fine, but we have to get up #early tomorrow. And by "we," I really mean #her.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Deal:[C:C] She got invited to a picnic and I #won't stand to hear another "had to go to #a picnic with a hangover" story.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettyface,grumpy][XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] Fiiiiiiiiiine.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] Let's go then.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettyface,][XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] See ya, Jill.[XS:bettyhide,1][STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Deal:[C:C] Bye.[XS:dealhide,1][STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Please come again.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettyface,grumpy][XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] Man, you're such a party pooper.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Deal:[C:C] You'll be the party pooper tomorrow #if you keep drinking.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Boss, I'll take my break! Call me if #someone comes.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] Alright.[XS:ph,10][E:25][STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Okay then, back to work.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Welcome to Valha-... oh, hey there #Alma.[STOPLIP:]
[SHOW:185,sprite_alma][XS:almaface,concern][XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] ...[STOPLIP:]

[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] ...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Umm...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almaface,sigh][XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] *sigh*[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] (She seems down... maybe there's #something I can give her to cheer her up?)[XS:ph,2][XS:mix,1][E:26][STOPLIP:]
[RES:][XS:mix,0][XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Hey![STOPLIP:]
[XS:almaface,worried][XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Hm? And this?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] It's on me. Drink, so you at least #change your expression.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almaface,smug][XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Why not just say you're worried #about me?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] You got the message anyway, didn't #you?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almaface,smile][XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Heh...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] So? How is it?[XS:ph,3][E:27][STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] A Brandtini! So you do pay attention #to what I ask for![STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] You have quite the fixation with #Brandtinis.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] To be honest, they suit you.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almaface,][XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Hey, wanna hear a silly story?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Always.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] When I turned 21, my dad and I went #to a bar to celebrate. Just him and I.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] He told me to dress well enough that #he "looked like my sugar daddy".[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] It was a fun night. We pretended at #times we were dating. I managed to blow #off some steam about my mom...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almaface,smile][XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] But the highlight was him ordering a #Brandtini for me.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] I've had plenty of drinks and gotten #wasted many times since I was 15, but that #drink was different.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] It wasn't about getting drunk. The #drink itself was the pleasure.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] He too said they suited me somehow.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Oh?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almaface,][XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Ever since that day, he's called me #"Brandtini girl" from time to time.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Your dad sounds like a cool guy.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] You should meet him sometime.[XS:ph,4][E:28][STOPLIP:]
[XS:almaface,][XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Well, it's not bad...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Sweet things always soothe me, so I #figured it would help you too.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almaface,smile][XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] You sound like my little brother.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Just replace "Sweet" with "Meat" #though.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Oh.[XS:ph,4][E:29][STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Well, it has alcohol, and I'm in a #bar, so...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almaface,smile][XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Good enough, I guess.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I got you to speak. That's all I #wanted.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] What? You're gonna jinx me or #something?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] No, but you being down and silent #is... uncanny.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almaface,smug][XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] You're making it sound like I'm some #sort of windbag.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] You know what I mean.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almaface,][XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Yeah, I do. Thanks.[XS:ph,4][E:30][STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Here.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almaface,][XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] And this is?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] A drink? You're in a bar, remember?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] This doesn't appear to have any #alcohol.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] It's still a drink.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almaface,sigh][XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Yeah, but what good is it without #alcohol?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] For throwing into your face?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almaface,][XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] That's one way of seeing things, I #guess.[XS:ph,4][E:31][STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] So, why are you deflating?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almaface,][XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Deflating?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] When I got sad and started sighing #repeatedly...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] My grandpa would warn me that I would #start deflating like an old tire if I kept #it up.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almaface,smile][XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Heheh...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] So, what is it? Was it the news #about people dressing in bunny suits after #the whole Alice_Rabbit boom?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Nah, that is old news.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almaface,][XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] I mean, it IS a problem, but such a #thing would only annoy me.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] ...say Jill, how's your mood right #now? I wanna ruin it by blowing off all my #stored steam.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Silly Alma. I've been feeling like #utter shit the last couple of days. You #can't make me feel worse.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] So, go ahead. Unwind all your #worries on me.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almaface,smile][XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Don't say I didn't warn you.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almaface,][XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Okay, so... remember my sister #Dayana?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] The one that separated from her #husband and forgot her kids while fucking #her way around or something?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Perfect summary. I'll use it next #time.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] I didn't tell you the whole story #then. More specifically, that she threw #her husband out after months of abuse.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Oh...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almaface,sigh][XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] However, that woman is incapable of #getting a job and maintaining herself.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] And I mean that. She never even #thinks about selling some stuff or trying #to earn her bread.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] She just EXPECTS a guy to do all #that for her.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almaface,serious][XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] I have no idea why she turned out #like that. Both my mom and dad were hard #workers. [STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] They even started a small shop to #have something to do after retirement.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Huh...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] So... what does this fully capable #woman do a couple of weeks later? [STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Why, bring her abusive husband back #of course![STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] ...what?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Yeah, and the guy spent a couple of #days with her before leaving her again.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] He had a nice couple of hot steamy #nights and then left![STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] ...I-I... well...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almaface,][XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Huh, you reacted like my lil' #brother and sister after hearing that.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almaface,sigh][XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] But the story doesn't end there. Oh #no.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] So she's broke and can't even get #enough for a bus. [STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Even though she'd probably be glad #to sell her ass just to get money.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almaface,serious][XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] And it was up to ME to pick her up.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] For the last couple of days, she left #her kids with my parents.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] ...and being such sweet angels, #they've made a mess out of the whole place.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Bernardo and Eva are actually #staying with me a couple of days to give #'em some peace.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almaface,sigh][XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] It doesn't help that I never got #along with Dayana.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] So, we're in the car and she asks #how her kids are.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almaface,serious][XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] And of course. After all the built-up #tension, I just... exploded.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] First, I started ranting about how her #kids are growing up seeing some messed-up #stuff.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] I start scolding her about not taking #responsibility, about not taking proper #care of her children.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] I tell her that she's in no place to #have all those escapades...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] And after all that, she just says...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almaface,concern][XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] "What the hell do you know? You #don't have any kids!"[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] ...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almaface,serious][XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Yeah, you slutty skank. I don't have #kids but I'm not broke just because I #refuse to take a job![STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] I don't have kids, but I'm not #leaving them in the first barely familiar #house I find.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] I don't have kids, but I'm not #letting the guy that hit me on a regular #basis back into my bed.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] I don't have kids, but I pretty much #raised Eva and Bernardo and they've turned #out pretty damn well![STOPLIP:]
[SHOW:0,minicg_alma][XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] I DON'T HAVE ANY KIDS BUT I'M NOT A #CHEAP WHOOOOOOOOORE!!![STOPLIP:]
[SHAKE:][XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAGH!!!![STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] ...damn.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:minicg,1][SHOW:185,sprite_alma][XS:almaface,serious][XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I... don't know what to say.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almaface,sigh][XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] There's nothing to say.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] I love my family and I put them #above all else... [STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] ...but Dayana is seriously pushing #the boundaries of what I can allow.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Any way I could help?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almaface,][XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] You just did.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Eh?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almaface,smile][XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] I know who I'm dealing with. I'm not #one to let stuff like that get to me.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almaface,sigh][XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] I'm still angry as hell though, and #I couldn't just discuss this with any of #my family members.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] I can't tell my mom "Your daughter #is a slut".[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almaface,smile][XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] I just... needed to get all of this #off my chest, you know?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Well, from what I see there's still #a lot more to get off your chest. It's #swollen as fuck.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Nah, all you see here is filled with #love and dreams.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Is everyone in your family as busty #as you?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almaface,][XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] The worst offender is my dad #actually.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almaface,smile][XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Kidding, kidding.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almaface,][XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] I guess the only one that didn't get #the big boobs gene was Eva.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] She insists on getting surgery or #genetic treatment, but I tell her she's #fine the way she is.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almaface,sigh][XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] These can actually be more of a #hassle than a blessing.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] And poor Bernardo. His breasts #actually started growing when he was 8.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] I just hope I don't take too much #from my mother's side of the family.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almaface,concern][XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] My father's sisters still look quite #young. But when menopause hit, my mom lost #her looks rather quickly.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almaface,][XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Any good genes you got from your #family, Jill?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Good enough skin and hair, I guess.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] There's a thing about a shrimp #allergy, but so far I haven't had problems #with that.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Oh, I see.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] ...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almaface,concern][XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Hey, you know what worries me the #most about the whole Dayana situation?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] How your nephews are turning out?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almaface,smug][XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] If she leaves them with my mom, #they'll turn out better than her... #somehow.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almaface,worried][XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Actually, what worries me is... what #if I end up like that too?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] How so?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] If I find a good man and I settle #down, what if he turns out shitty?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] What if I have a sudden burst where #I wanna "live my life" and end up like #that?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] What if I have kids and I end up #neglecting them because of all that?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] If you ask me, the fact that you're #even worried about it is indication enough #that you'll be fine.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almaface,][XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] You think?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I'm pretty sure.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] You said before that she pretty much #married the guy after a couple of months, #right?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Yeah.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] No offense, but those are the kind #of people who wouldn't even think about #all that.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Besides, if any guy ends up marrying #you, it's because he passed your #irrational standards.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almaface,serious][XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Hey![STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Am I lying?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almaface,sigh][XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] No... but there are things best kept #as unspoken truths.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] *sigh* I wonder if I'll ever find a #good guy.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] You will. You'll know when the time #comes.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] I sure hope so.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almaface,][XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] For now, the time has come to get #another drink.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] What can I get you?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Hm...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Get me something with ice, but #alcoholic please.[STOPLIP:]

[RES:][XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Here you go.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Thanks, I needed to cool down a bit.[STOPLIP:]

[XS:almaface,sigh][XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Jill. This is softer than a pillow #on Monday morning. And I don't mean it in #a good way.[STOPLIP:]

[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] I appreciate the gesture though.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Just making sure.[XS:ph,6][XS:mix,0][E:36][STOPLIP:]
[XS:almaface,][XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] So, you said you felt shitty the #last couple of days. Why?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Don't think too much about it.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almaface,seiours][XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Oh, come on! You heard my problems. #I wanna help you too.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Don't worry too much.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Right! I almost forgot to tell you #something.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almaface,][XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] What is it?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] My boss is throwing a Mega Christmas #party this Sunday. You wanna come?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almaface,sigh][XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Sure. Something tells me this #Mega Christmas is gonna be a mess at my #parents' home, so I'd rather avoid it.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almaface,][XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Are you guys getting chicken? I can #get one.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Hm... to be honest, I wouldn't know.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] You can bring it if you want. It #won't go to waste.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Gotcha.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Hm... say Jill, what's your favorite #part of the chicken?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Favorite part... I guess I like legs #the most.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Really? I like breast better.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Breast is a bit too simple, don't #you think? Legs have a better texture.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almaface,smile][XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Maybe, but simple is usually better. #Breast is easier to enjoy than legs... and #a lot less messy.[STOPLIP:]
[SHOW:280,sprite_dana][SHOW:120,sprite_alma][XS:danaface,closedsmile][XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] Hmhmhm... you silly girls.[STOPLIP:]

[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] Spicy chicken wings.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Where did you get spicy chicken #wings?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] From a Spicy Chicken.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] You know, Spicy Chicken, the shop #two blocks from here.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] ...sorry, let me rephrase that. Why #are you carrying a bucket of spicy chicken #wings?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:danaface,worry][XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] Why AREN'T you carrying a bucket of #spicy chicken wings?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Well... because... eh?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] Thought as much.[STOPLIP:]

[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Alma.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:danaface,worry][XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] I know what I said.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:danaface,][XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] Will the chicken you're talking #about be cooked already?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] You might need to heat it up.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] But it'd be cooked otherwise.[STOPLIP:]

[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] ...oh, mild-spice. Nice.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Weird. Maybe she got a mixed-up #order and that's why she left them here.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almaface,][XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] She usually orders stronger stuff?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I've found buckets that make my #throat itch just from being near them.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Oh.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Hm...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Say, Jill. What kind of guys do you #like?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] That's a sudden question.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I'm not too picky with guys, to be #honest. I want them to be decent enough.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Not jealous, not aggressive, #responsible enough to keep a job...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almaface,serious][XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] That's no good! Do you like them #buff? What about tall?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Hm...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] No tattoos or piercings, I guess. #Never liked either.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] What about you?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almaface,smile][XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] I like them well-dressed.[STOPLIP:]

[XS:almaface,][XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] ...some muscle is always fine too. #But sharply-dressed males catch my #attention faster.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] And yet you're still single.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almaface,sigh][XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] That's how I like my men. My #potential husband on the other hand... is #another matter completely.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I see.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almaface,][XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] So, can you get me a drink here? The #spicy wings turned out to be spicy.[STOPLIP:]

[XS:almaface,sigh][XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Anything, as long as it helps me #with the spiciness in my mouth.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Okay.[XS:ph,7][XS:mix,1][E:37][STOPLIP:]

[RES:][XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] This might help.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] ...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almaface,smile][XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] *phew* Yup, it did.[STOPLIP:]

[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] *COUGH* Damn...[STOPLIP:]

[XS:almaface,serious][XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Jill, I'm *this* close to throwing #it in your face.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Mission accomplished then.[XS:ph,8][XS:mix,0][E:42][STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Alright, so. Next question.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almaface,smug][XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] What kind of girl do you like?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Ngh...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Hmhm...?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Y-You first.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almaface,smile][XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Sorry, I don't swing that way.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Sure, I have no qualms about saying #a girl is cute or cool but...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Nope, I prefer men in my bed.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Now you.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] (Shit, just... calm down.)[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I-I guess I like girls with #light-colored hair.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almaface,][XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Light-colored hair?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Y-Yeah, you know... like redheads #and such.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] What about white? Like your boss?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] ...you were just setting me up for #that comment, weren't you?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almaface,smile][XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Sorry, it's just that when she got #here with the bucket of wings, your eyes #pretty much started sparkling.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Your whole behavior transformed! You #became giddy and cheerful all the sudden.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] ...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almaface,][XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Hey, I can't blame you. She's pretty #nice.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] I just felt like teasing you.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] *sigh*[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] So... light-colored hair.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] What about blondes? Do you like me?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Yeah, I guess.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Let's say I'm into girls too and I #start hitting on you.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Would you go along with it?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Nice body, pretty face, and a good #apartment? I wouldn't ever let you go.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almaface,smile][XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Heheh...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almaface,][XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Okay then. Enough tangents. Why #don't you tell me why you were feeling #shitty these last days?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] What? Oh... that.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I told you not to think too much #about it.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almaface,serious][XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] And I told you I wanna know![STOPLIP:]
[XS:almaface,worried][XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Come on, Jill! You've heard my #problems so many times. Now I wanna #help you.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] ...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almaface,smile][XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Come on, come here.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Eh?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] I told you to sit here. Come on.[XS:almahide,1][STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] E-Eh? W-Wha-...[STOPLIP:]
[SHOW:185,sprite_jill][XS:jillface,surprise][XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] What are you-...?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Alright then. Now, I'm the bartender #and you're the client.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jillface,][XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Hardly. The bartending station only #works with me.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] I see.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Okay then, I move this here, click #here and...[SHOW:185,hack_obj][STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Now it works for you, for me, and #that dog in a Hawaiian shirt.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jillface,uh][XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Why with him too?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] He's a dog. In a fucking Hawaiian #shirt.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jillface,][XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Right, and how did you even manage #to...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jillface,baka][XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Oh yeah, hacker. Right...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Now we've changed roles.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] You've been feeling shitty. Mind #telling me why?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jillface,][XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] It's... a long story. I don't even #know where to start.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Start from the beginning. [STOPLIP:]
[XS:jillface,][XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] ...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Okay then. It's something that goes #back to my college years.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Whoa, that's taking it way back.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Back in compulsory education, I #never made too much of an effort but I #managed to get high grades.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Even in P.E., I managed to do well #enough to always get perfect grades.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] And then, of course, when I got to #college, shit started getting hard.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I had this perfectionist streak that #wouldn't let me fail anything.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Burning my eyelashes studying, I #eventually managed to keep up good grades.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jillface,think][XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] After about half of the career, I #met a student teacher. Her name was Lenore.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] She helped me a lot with my studies. #She even got me into stuff that gave more #credits.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I really liked her, and after some #time I found out she liked me too.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Ohoho...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jillface,][XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] We started going out, I met all of #her family even, and-...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] You want a drink?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jillface,surprise][XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] What?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] A drink. Around this time, there's #usually a pause that makes you offer #a drink to the client.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jillface,uh][XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] There was no such pause.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Please! I wanna test this whole #bartending interface.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jillface,][XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] *sigh* A Sugar Rush then, you can't #mess that up.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Right![XS:ph,9][XS:mix,1][E:43][STOPLIP:]
[RES:][XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Here![STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Thanks.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] How is it?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jillface,baka][XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Like I said, you can't mess up a #Sugar Rush.[STOPLIP:]

[RES:][XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Here![STOPLIP:]
[XS:jillface,uh][XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] ...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] ...this is for giving you that drink #before, right?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Revenge is a drink best dispensed #spicy.[XS:ph,10][XS:mix,0][E:45][STOPLIP:]
[RES:][XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Here.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Thanks.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] ...so?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jillface,baka][XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] No Sugar Rush, but this doesn't look #like it'll blow up.[XS:ph,10][XS:mix,0][E:46][STOPLIP:]
[XS:jillface,][XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I have this gut feeling that with #your body, you'd make a better bartender #than me.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] You're selling yourself too short. #You're cute, you know?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] People don't go to bars for cuteness #though...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] You've obviously never been to a #Catbar then.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Besides, my boobs can be a hassle #when trying to move around this kind of #stuff.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] So, keep telling the story.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jillface,baka][XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] *sigh*[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Well, as the career went on and on, #it got harder and harder.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jillface,][XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] The last year and a half of it became #nothing but study session after study #session, investigations, my thesis...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] When the graduation ceremony came, I #had to make a speech and suddenly, while #reading said speech...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jillface,sad][XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I almost had a panic attack.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Fear of public speaking?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I realised I lost about a year and a #half of my life.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jillface,][XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I tried to remember if I did anything #fun at all, but all I could remember was #studying and investigating new topics.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I didn't even enjoy doing all that. #So, I was just standing there and the #satisfaction of graduating was minimal.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jillface,think][XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I realized I had only gone through #the motions, day after day. From high #school to graduating.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jillface,sad][XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I-I... felt like whole years of #my life had slipped through my fingers.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I never stopped to think if I #enjoyed what I was doing... in fact, I #never stopped.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jillface,][XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] But at that point, I stopped... and #realized I needed a breather or something.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jillface,baka][XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Did I even like that career? It was #all terrifying as hell.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I needed all of my strength to not #start running like a panicked mess.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Hm...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jillface,think][XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] ...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] *sigh*[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] So, a couple of months later, I get #an offer to start working at this big #research facility.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jillface,][XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Lenore was ecstatic. She was so #proud of me back then.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] ...but I was just scared.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] That would be my job. I'd spend my #life expanding on what I did during that #year and a half.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] What if I had a sudden realization #like the one I had at graduation, but when #I turned 40?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I didn't know what to do, but I sure #as hell wasn't taking that offer.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I told Lenore and she freaked out. #She confessed that she was jealous because #she never got such a chance.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Things devolved pretty quickly. She #said one too many things, I said one too #many things...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] In the end I just stormed out of #her house, and I broke a vase in the #process.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jillface,think][XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] After that, I never spoke to her #again.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Damn.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] I'm sorry I...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] I suddenly feel bad for pushing you #to tell me all that.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Why are you feeling shitty about #that after all this time, though?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Unless you've been feeling shitty #for years.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jillface,][XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I have, but it's not just because of #that.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Eh?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] The other day Lenore's sister, #Gabrielle, came to this bar.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] ...apparently Lenore died last week.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] ...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Localized Nanomachine Rejection. A #heart attack.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Apparently, she had it for a long #time, but never told anyone.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] ...and coincidentally, it got worse #after I left.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jillface,sad][XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] And I just can't stop thinking about #it. Wondering if me being there would've #made a difference.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] And if it's true she had that for a #long time, why didn't she tell me she was #sick when we were together?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I don't know, I just feel... like #all kinds of failure.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] ...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Jill...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] And to make it worse, I also lashed #out at Gaby.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Yes, she was blaming me for her #sister's death and all but... [STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] She's just a kid, for fuck's sake. #She lost the sister who pretty much raised #her on her own.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] ...and to top it all off, I suddenly #can't remember what stopped me from #apologizing.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Pride? Fear? A stupid effort to #leave the most awesome person I loved #as a thing of the past?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Who cares?! I lost my chance to #apologize to her forever. Truly forever.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I'm such a piece of shit... [STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] A selfish... piece of shit.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] ...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] I honestly don't know what to say.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] I... didn't expect the story to be #this...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] I...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jillface,][XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] ...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Yo, Boobtender.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Y-Yes?![STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Can you get me a big Beer here?[STOPLIP:]

[XS:jillface,smile][XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Thanks.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I need to remember to take care of #the cans in my apartment.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Do you drink lots of Beer?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] One of the perks of the BTC-issued #liver implant is that I can drink lots of #Beer without getting too wasted.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Ooooh.[XS:ph,12][XS:mix,0][E:48][STOPLIP:]
[RES:][XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] One Beer.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jillface,uh][XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Not a big one, though.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] You sure those glasses of yours work?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Well, I do need to get them checked #but... [STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Nevermind. Sorry for the mistake.[XS:ph,12][XS:mix,0][E:49][STOPLIP:]
[RES:][XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Here.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] This isn't a Beer.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jillface,uh][XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Alma, you do know what a Beer is, #right?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Drank so much of it in college I #might not know anymore, actually.[XS:ph,12][XS:mix,0][E:50][STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] ...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Hey Jill, what kind of girl was #Lenore?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jillface,][XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Hm? Well...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] She was... calm, and smart.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Back in college, I was too #thick-headed and got riled up easily. #"Stressed" was my default state.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] So, just like you're behaving right #now.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jillface,baka][XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Shut up. I was worse.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Can't picture that.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Don't. It's embarrassing.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jillface,smile][XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Anyway, she was always there, #finding a way to cool me down.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] She was also able to hold #conversations about pretty much any topic. [STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] One time, I saw her go from talking #about video games to talking about sports.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] All of that variety while still being #a hardcore scientist.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] She would always push me into social #interactions. If she saw me by myself, she #would drag me with her.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] "Watching people is fine, but #talking to them is better," she would say.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Lenore would always present me to #her many acquaintances as "the girl I #don't mind cuddling with for hours".[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jillface,][XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] *sigh* Man, I'm gonna miss her.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] After a point, I didn't even think #about getting back into a relationship #with her, but...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] She was such an awesome person, I #just wanted to apologize.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] And now...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jillface,think][XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] ...*sigh*[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jillface,][XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] You know... in a cruel twist of #irony, she's the one that made me pick up #bartending.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Oh?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Back when I was thinking what the #hell to do with my life, I remembered a #night we spent in a club.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] She started talking about how the #drinks were synthesized, the chemistry #involved, the reactions and all that.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Everything sounded so fascinating. I #remember saying that her talk made me #want to start mixing drinks.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] She said "If everything else fails, #why not take up bartending?"[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Huh... interesting.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jillface,think][XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] ...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] ...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Are you okay?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jillface,uh][XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] For some value of "okay", yeah.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] It's just...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jillface,smile][XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I wanted to thank you, Alma.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] T-Thank me?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I guess I just needed someone to #tell all of this to. And you were the one.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] You volunteered yourself. You #insisted on listening to me.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] You stood there, listening to the #whole thing from beginning to end.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I know I might not be the most #expressive person, that I'm not one to #spout love and fluffiness, but...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I really like you.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Maybe I'm just a bartender and you're #just a client...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] ...but I really appreciate your #friendship, or at the very least your #patronage.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I really enjoy working for you.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] ...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] ...Jill, are you dying?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jillface,surprise][XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Shut up! I'm trying to have a heart #to heart here![STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Sorry, sorry. It's just...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] It's weird for you to get so... #sappy.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jillface,baka][XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Well, I just realized that the #saddest thing is how I'll never be able to #make amends...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jillface,sad][XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] And it hurts like fucking hell, you #know.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I never, and I mean NEVER, wanna #feel that way ever again.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jillface,][XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I don't want someone to suddenly #exit my life and have my last memory of #them involve something nasty.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I don't want the lingering grief of #having burned a bridge on a whim.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I want to avoid that at any cost. #And if it means breaking character every #once in a while, so be it.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I'll let everyone know how I really #feel about them.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jillface,think][XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] And if I ever fight with them, I'll #swallow my pride, muster all the courage I #can and be the one to apologize.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jillface,sad][XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I hate feeling like this. Hate it! #Hate it!![STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Heheh, that's a nice resolution. #Maybe I'll be a copycat and do the same.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jillface,][XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] ...alright, enough sappiness, get #back here. I'm on duty, you know?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Fiiiiiiiiiiiiine.[XS:jillhide,1][STOPLIP:]
[SHOW:185,sprite_alma][XS:almaface,smile][XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] It's almost closing time anyways.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] It was fun while it lasted though.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] ...hey.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almaface,][XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Yeah?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I-I mean it, you know? Thanks for #everything today.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almaface,smile][XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Silly Jill. You listened to my #problems and I listened to yours. That's #what friends are for, right?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Right...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almaface,][XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] I'll be leaving now... Oh! Before I #forget.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Did you ever talk about all this #with your parents?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] They know the basics, but I haven't #told them about Lenore's death yet.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Why don't you do that sometime?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I don't know. I don't want to bother #them with my problems...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Don't be silly, they're your #parents. They live to share your problems.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] You should try having a talk like #this with them sometime. They'll #appreciate it.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Anyway, I'm out. See you on Sunday![XS:almahide,1][STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Take care.[STOPLIP:]

[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] Not all of it, but a good chunk, at #the very least.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] Your expression changed a lot #already.[STOPLIP:]

[SHOW:185,sprite_dana][XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] Ah. Hey, Jill.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] How are you feeling?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I won't say good but...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Not that bad, I guess.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:danaface,closedsmile][XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] That's nice to hear.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Where's Gil? Did he run away again?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] Nah, I have him on errand duty, #buying the drinks for tomorrow.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] That sounds... weird, coming from #the owner of a bar.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:danaface,worry][XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] Every drink from here would come out #of our own funds.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] So if we're gonna spend money, we #might as well get more variety.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:danaface,][XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] Besides, those kind of walks are #always good for Gil.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] You're the boss.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Who's coming so far?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] Well, there's the three of us, the #dogs, you invited titty hacker, Gil #invited Jamie...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] Oh yeah, I also invited Dorothy when #I called her to spend the night with you.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Sounds good so far.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] Invite anyone else you feel like #inviting. The more the merrier.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I could, but I bet everyone's made #plans by this point.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:danaface,][XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] That's true.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:danaface,][XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] I'll be in my office, call me should #anything arise.[XS:danhide,1][STOPLIP:]

[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Why does that place make people get #lost so easily?[STOPLIP:]

[XS:vellatalk,1][C:39]"Vella":[C:C] Have you heard of a game called #YIIK, bartender?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] That cult classic game that has seen #like three remastered versions made by six #different companies this year?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:vellatalk,1][C:39]"Vella":[C:C] That one. We're in a cosplay #group dedicated to it and we got lost on #the way.[STOPLIP:]

[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] He has tased people for even liking #1980's R&B before.[STOPLIP:]

[XS:doroface,][XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] This is...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Didn't you say you liked having a #Piano Woman whenever you felt like #celebrating, or were feeling down? [STOPLIP:]
[XS:doroface,think][XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] I did?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:doroface,heart][XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] Wait... I did! You actually #remembered such a thing.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] You're so sweet~[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] (I was half expecting her to say #that she meant a literal Piano Woman. Glad #I was wrong.)[XS:mix,0][XS:ph,3][E:15][STOPLIP:]
[RES:][XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Here.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] Thanks...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] ...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] ...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] (She didn't notice it was the wrong #drink?)[XS:mix,0][XS:ph,3][E:16][STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] ...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] ...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] (So much silence...)[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] By the way, thanks for staying with #me the other day. Turns out I really #needed that.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] So, did you enjoy the soda?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:doroface,][XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] Oh, did you find that one out?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Was it supposed to be a secret?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] No... but don't go around telling #everyone about that.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:doroface,smug][XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] I did it because it was you who #needed my help, but a hug night is usually #one of my most expensive services.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] It is?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:doroface,angry][XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] Hey, I don't know if the client #has body odor or something like that.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] Not to mention it limits the #chances of getting any other client that #night.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:doroface,][XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] Still, did it help?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Yeah, it helped me cool down a lot.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] So, from what Dana told me, #someone close to you died, right?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Yeah.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Do you wanna know more about it?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] Do you wanna tell me about it?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I've brought it up enough times #already, I think.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] No problem then. You were sad and #that's all I needed to know.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:doroface,think][XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] Sorry for the loss though. I mean #it.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Thanks.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Although I've wondered for a while, #do you Lilim really understand death?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] Sorta, kinda...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] Our whole database is constantly #being backed up in the Collective Source.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] Even if our bodies are destroyed, #we can be deployed again with our #personalities and memories intact.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] So... our concept of "mortality" #might be different.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:doroface,sad][XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] We do have a fear of death #though...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] You do?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] We can't even begin to understand #the idea of not being redeployed.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:doroface,think][XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] While we have built-in #"warnings", the mere idea of that... #nothingness is paralyzing.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] There are a few that don't mind #it, but we do fear death and we don't wish #it on anyone.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:doroface,][XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] In fact, that was the argument #used for abolishing the whole three laws #thing.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] You seem quite knowledgeable about #robot history.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] Seeing what others have done to #make sure I can live like I do helps me #not take things for granted.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:doroface,angry][XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] Seriously though, those laws were #bullshit.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] "Can't harm humans, can't disobey #humans unless it's about hurting them... [STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] ...and you can protect yourself as #long as it doesn't harm humans."[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] I mean, sure. The first AIs were #just helpers and tools. [STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] But how could those laws still #apply to them after they achieved #self-awareness?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] Who in their right mind would #abide only by rules inscribed in some old #book?![STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] If I remember correctly, those were #only the distilled versions of the "laws" #some writer imagined over 100 years ago.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] They were a reduced version of all #his ideas.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] However, many authors afterwards #took to them like they were the very laws #of physics, or something.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] And like many other things, people #distill and exaggerate what they need and #use it to their favor.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:doroface,smug][XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] Wow, you're a nerd.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Look who's talking.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] Let's change the subject a bit #though. Mood's getting gloomy.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:doroface,][XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] Your apartment is very comfy, you #know?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] It's a tad small though. Sorry about #that.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] And your cat is so cute! What was #his name again?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Fore.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] Why Fore?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I figured if he ever got lost, at #least I wanted to be able to yell #"FOOOOOOOOORE!!"[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] It happened once. You'd be surprised #by how many golf players you run into.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] And every time you play with him, #you can say it's Fore Play. He-he. He.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Pfft... yeah.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] He was also named after... someone.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] Really? Who?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] A Lilim kid that wanted to transcend.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] What? A movie character or #something?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Sure, let's go with that.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:doroface,think][XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] ...?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Do you want anything else?[XS:ph,-2][E:17][STOPLIP:]
[XS:doroface,][XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] Hmmm... Let's go with a Blue #Fairy.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Alright.[XS:mix,1][XS:ph,4][E:18][STOPLIP:]
[RES:][XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Here.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] Why do they call it a Blue Fairy?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] Is it because of Pinocchio?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I believe the name is based off #Absinthe, which some call the Green #Fairy.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] The first versions of the drink were #described as "Sweeter Absinthe".[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Sadly, they had to fix the formula #because people were turning green.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] Not blue?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] A blue-ish green.[XS:mix,0][XS:ph,6][E:19][STOPLIP:]
[RES:][XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Here you go.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] This isn't a fairy, you know?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] It's a spirit though.[XS:mix,0][XS:ph,5][E:20][STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] Still not a fairy.[XS:ph,6][E:21][STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] Nope, not even that.[XS:ph,6][E:22][STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] You seemed to have cheered up a bit #there.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:doroface,pachi][XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] Yeah, talking to you always helps #me get my mind off things.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Hey, there's something I've wondered #for a while now.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:doroface,][XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] What?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] What kind of friends do you have?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I mean, are they in your same line #of work or...?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] Friends? Aside from you?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Thank you.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] Hm... well, there's Lawrence, #that vending machine is a lot of fun to be #with.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:doroface,think][XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] ...once you get past his... #quirkiness, that is.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:doroface,][XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] I've also met a lot of nice #people working in the streets.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] From the top of my head I can #think about...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] Nightingale, another Lilim. He #changed himself to have fur and a more #wolf-like face. [STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] He's also a pretty good pianist. #He plays in a jazz band on the weekends.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] There's also Nadeera, a drag #queen and the owner of a club I've been #invited to a few times.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] She has an animal shelter on the #side. I help her with it occasionally.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] Oh, there's also sister #Clementine, a nun from an orphanage.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:doroface,pachi][XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] I go there sometimes and play #with the kids.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Whoa, that's something I didn't #expect to hear.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:doroface,think][XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] ...I also almost got adopted once.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] I was flattered, but it was... #weird.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:doroface,][XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] Oh, and it turns out I already #knew your boss.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] Some years ago she...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] ...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] She what? What?![STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] ...I said too much. Client #confidentiality and all that.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] ...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] *ahem*[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Well, enough tangents. Why were you #gloomy in the first place?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] Gloomy?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] When you came in. I don't know if #gloomy is the right word, but... you were #pretty quiet at the very least.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] And knowing how you normally are, it #was pretty weird.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] Oh, don't worry about that. Just #had one too many things going in my mind.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] I wasn't gloomy or anything. More #like... distracted, really.[XS:ph,9][E:23][STOPLIP:]
[XS:doroface,][XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] Let's see if you know me that #well. Give me something I'd like.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Okay then.[XS:mix,1][XS:ph,7][E:24][STOPLIP:]
[RES:][STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Here.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] Good! But that's cheating. You #just served me this drink.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Still right, isn't it?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] Yup.[XS:mix,0][XS:ph,8][E:25][STOPLIP:]
[RES:][XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Here you are.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] This one's pretty basic, huh?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] First drink ever created on this #system. Still a favorite of the people up #till today.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] Can't blame 'em.[XS:mix,0][XS:ph,8][E:26][STOPLIP:]
[RES:][XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] What about this?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] Yup! Juuuuust nice.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] You always order either sweet or #girly drinks. It was a no-brainer.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] Girly and Sweet drinks for a #sweet girl.[XS:mix,0][XS:ph,8][E:27][STOPLIP:]
[RES:][STOPLIP:][XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Here.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] Bzzzzzt! Wrong.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] I still love you, but this is #definitely wrong.[STOPLIP:][XS:mix,0][XS:ph,8][E:28][STOPLIP:]
[XS:doroface,heart][XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] I still can't believe you #actually remembered what I said about the #Piano Woman.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] It's always good to keep note of #what regulars like, you know?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I've wondered for a while though. #Why do you keep coming back here?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:doroface,pachi][XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] For you, of course.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Come again?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] Why else would I come, if not to #see you?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:doroface,][XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] You're one of the few people #willing to hear me out, always filled with #curiosity.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] And you're cute. Talking to cute #people is always nice.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] There's also the bar, the way #it's insulated from the noise of the city. #It's really comfortable.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] And it's just a bit away from the #street I'm always at. A win-win situation![STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I see.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] It was weird to see you down though. #Especially since you're always so lively.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:doroface,][XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] Well, I wasn't down, really. I #was just thinking about a lot of things.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Like what?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:doroface,think][XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] Well, my mom, er... guardian #asked me to go home on Monday for a bit.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] And as much as I love her, being #with her is usually... tiring.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] "Guardian"... [STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] That whole thing about someone #taking care of a Lilim after they're #deployed until they reach maturity, right?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:doroface,][XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] Yup. And I'm proud to say that I #reached psychological maturity in just one #year![STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] They always try and keep a varied #pool of volunteers to make the Collective #Source grow faster.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] So, what's wrong with your guardian?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:doroface,think][XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] Well, she still treats me like a #kid.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] The worst part is that sometimes #I fear she might see me as some sort of #replacement for her dead daughter.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Huh? Dead daughter?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:doroface,sad][XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] I was deployed to her not long #after she lost her daughter. A contrived #coincidence, really.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:doroface,think][XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] Even when I was still developing #Self-Awareness, I always feared she might #be using me as a replacement.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] She didn't though, or at least #not consciously. [STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] At times she would just stop #doing something, or return a gift she's #given me...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] If she felt like she was projecting #too much of her daughter onto me.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:doroface,][XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] What irony that years later, I'd #make a living pretending to be someone #else in the bedroom.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] How's that?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] Well, most of the time, my job #involves role-playing. A daughter, a #student, some helpless kid...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:doroface,think][XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] It means I've gotten many clients #looking exactly for that, but on the other #hand...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] From a professional standpoint, #I'd rather have them hire me because of #me.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] Because of my character, not #because I'm "The one that roleplays as #little girls".[STOPLIP:]
[XS:doroface,][XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] Maybe I need to exaggerate some #attribute...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] What's the problem with your #guardian then? If you do that on a daily #basis, why worry about it?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:doroface,sad][XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] Because I don't wanna make her #sad.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] Every time I visit her, I fear #she might look at me and see her daughter. #That seeing me makes her sad.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] At this point, I don't even care #if she's projecting her daughter onto me, #I just don't wanna make her feel sad.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Did you try talking with her?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:doroface,think][XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] How so?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Telling her just what you said to #me. Clear up those fears.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I mean, unless she's not the kind to #want anyone opening up to her, that is.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] I... never really thought about #talking to her about that.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] It doesn't sound like something #you just bring up though.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Keep it in mind, at least. Maybe #she'll appreciate the gesture.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I wouldn't know though. I haven't #met her.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:doroface,][XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] She's a really nice woman. The #problem is mostly with me, I think.[XS:ph,9][E:29][STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] Well, I think I'll go now.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] Thanks for lending me an ear, #honey.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] My boss told you about the party #tomorrow, right?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] Yup! I wouldn't dare to miss that.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Okay then.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] Alright then. See you tomorrow![XS:dorohide,1][STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Good luck.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] Thanks![STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] And that's that.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Boss, I'll be taking my break.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] Alright.[XS:ph,10][E:30][STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Well then, I'm taking my break.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:doroface,think][XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] Oh... I'll be leaving then.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] No, what I was trying to say is that #I'm taking my break, you wanna come?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:doroface,][XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] Really?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] If you don't mind talking on a #chilly night in an alley behind the bar, #that is.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:doroface,smug][XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] Eh, I've done worse in alleys.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:doroface,][XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] Let's go![STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Boss! I'm taking my break.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] Alright![STOPLIP:][XS:ph,10][E:31][STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Want one?[STOPLIP:][SHOW:0,codec_cigar]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] Are you really offering a little #girl a cigarette? [STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] NOW you're a little girl?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] I always am. Innocence, however, #is another matter entirely.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] But anyway. Thanks, no. Smoking #seriously messes with my air filters and #they're a hassle to replace.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] Don't mind me though. Smoke to #your heart's content.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Thanks.[STOPLIP:][XS:codechide,1]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] So, why don't you tell me about this #guardian of yours? I wanna know what kind #of woman she is.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] Sure![STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] Well, her name is Sophia Graem.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] (G-Graem?!)[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] She's a retired P.E. teacher. #Nowadays she works at a gym during the #morning shift.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] She's pretty fit, if I do say so #myself.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] She had a daughter. Apparently #she suffered from Nanomachine Rejection #all of her life...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] ...and when she finally healed, #she was hit by a truck.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Um... what was her daughter's name?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] I don't know, I never asked #really.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] Are you okay? I'm reading fear... #or is that surprise? It's hard to tell.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I'm fine yea-... wait, "read"?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] Well, I don't "see" emotions like #you do. [STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] I have to make do with a #combination of body heat readings, #face recognition and context.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] I'm still a bit confused about #some, but I've gotten better with time.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] Anyway, you sure you're fine?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Yeah, yeah.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] (Scared or surprised... she's not #wrong though.)[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Wait, does that mean your last name #isn't really Haze?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] Haze is just my artistic name. #Sounds more exotic and that's what people #usually look for in this business.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] I tried other names though.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] Dolores Haze, Genesis Graem...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] I tried Dorothy Warrior once, but #a legal team came out of nowhere and #stopped me cold.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] So, what's your legal name, then?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] Rebecca Dorothy Willow Graem. A #bit of a mouthful, if you ask me.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] So Dorothy's actually your second #name?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Should I call you something like #Becky then?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] People have always called me #Dorothy rather than Rebecca for some #reason. That's why I chose it.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] It's useful too. People have #tried to falsify stuff using my name and #they always get caught.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Because they use "Dorothy Haze" as #their name?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] Yup.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] Only my mom... err... guardian #calls me Rebecca, so it's weird to hear it #from others.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] What about Willow?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] Willow's my first surname, #actually. [STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] When I got registered, my #guardian was married to a guy who had #"Willow" as a last name.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] Shortly after I joined their #household, they separated, so I was left #with his family name first.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Hold on, so your real name in short #would be "Rebecca Willow"?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] Doesn't have the same pizzaz to #it if you ask me.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Whatever you say, Becky.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] Stop it![STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] It'd be like if I called you #Julianne all of a sudden.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] NGH![STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] *ahem*[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] Whoa, that was anger I read just #now. Lots of anger.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I think it's weird enough already if #you call me Jill instead of "honey".[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] Weird, huh? How you can end up #feeling associated with a name that's not #yours?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I have an uncle that always called #me Tina. He kept calling my cousin Tina #"Jill," for some reason.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Neither of us mind it, though. #Because he's calling us what he thinks #we're called instead of mixing us up.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] ...that and it's completely useless #to try and correct him.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] But you know, maybe that effect is #true for your clients too.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] How so?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Well, you're worried about your #clients not hiring you because you're... #you, right?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] But think about what happens when #it's announced that a character will be #played by a different actor.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Sure, it's a character, but people #are also going for the actor playing the #character.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] So you're saying they go for MY #roleplay instead of just mere roleplay?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Sounds too far-fetched?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] Sounds plausible, actually.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] Okay honey! I'll take my leave #now. Don't wanna take up all of your break.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] Thanks for the chat. See you at #the party tomorrow![STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Bye.[XS:client,-2][XS:ph,1][E:32][STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Back! Did I miss something?[STOPLIP:]
[SHOW:185,sprite_dana][XS:danaface,worry][XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] Unless you count the worst PPV main #event fight I've seen all year? Not #really, no.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Alright.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Going out?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] I'll have a word with Gogo outside. #He was so hyped for that match. He must be #devastated.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Okay.[XS:danhide,1][STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Welcome to Valhalla.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Oh, hi Sei.[STOPLIP:]
[SHOW:185,sprite_seiwound][XS:seiface,happy][XS:seitalk,1][C:17]Sei:[C:C] Good evening, Jill.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] How are you doing?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:seitalk,1][C:17]Sei:[C:C] The nightmares have stopped, so I'm #sleeping better.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] ...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] *ahem*[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Um... how about your injuries?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:seiface,][XS:seitalk,1][C:17]Sei:[C:C] My bones are healing nicely. My #wounds finally closed... the scars itch a #bit, though.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Well, that's good to hear.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Are you by yourself today?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:seitalk,1][C:17]Sei:[C:C] Yeah, I'm running a couple of errands #by myself today, but I wanted to come here #for a while.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I also notice the big guy from last #time is outside.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:seitalk,1][C:17]Sei:[C:C] Buster? Stella doesn't want me being #alone while I'm still healing, so she #suggested taking him with me.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Ah, I see.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] What can I get you?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:seitalk,1][C:17]Sei:[C:C] Something cold.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Sure.[XS:mix,1][XS:ph,2][E:33][STOPLIP:]
[RES:][XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Here.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:seitalk,1][C:17]Sei:[C:C] Yeah! This is the one.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Why drink something cold when the #weather outside is so cold too?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:seitalk,1][C:17]Sei:[C:C] It's not that cold, actually.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:seitalk,1][C:17]Sei:[C:C] But I've always had decent tolerance #for the cold, so I'm not a good reference.[XS:mix,0][XS:ph,3][E:34][STOPLIP:]
[RES:][XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I think you'll like this one.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:seitalk,1][C:17]Sei:[C:C] Really?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:seitalk,1][C:17]Sei:[C:C] ...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:seiface,happy][XS:seitalk,1][C:17]Sei:[C:C] Heheh... so sweet of you.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:seitalk,1][C:17]Sei:[C:C] Thanks![XS:mix,0][XS:ph,3][E:35][STOPLIP:]
[RES:][XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Here.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:seitalk,1][C:17]Sei:[C:C] Thanks, but.. ummm...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:seitalk,1][C:17]Sei:[C:C] It isn't cold.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Sorry. It's so chilly. My idea of #cold is a bit off.[XS:mix,0][XS:ph,3][E:36][STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] So, Stella isn't with you today?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:seiface,][XS:seitalk,1][C:17]Sei:[C:C] She's throwing a Mega Christmas party #tomorrow and is having a meeting today. [STOPLIP:]
[XS:seitalk,1][C:17]Sei:[C:C] I'm just helping her by checking on #some of the things she ordered.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] And here I was, all ready to invite #you to the party we're throwing tomorrow.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:seiface,sorry][XS:seitalk,1][C:17]Sei:[C:C] You're throwing a party too? Sorry #about that! Can't really say no to Stella.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:seitalk,1][C:17]Sei:[C:C] Maybe next time?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] (If there's a next time at all.)[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Don't worry about it. It's not a big #deal.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:seitalk,1][C:17]Sei:[C:C] I-I want you to know that I want you #to have a good time.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:seitalk,1][C:17]Sei:[C:C] Have fun! Drink a couple of Beers in #our honor![STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Heh. I will, then.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] What are Stella's Christmas parties #like?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:seiface,happy][XS:seitalk,1][C:17]Sei:[C:C] They're really big. There's lots of #food and drinks and music...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:seiface,][XS:seitalk,1][C:17]Sei:[C:C] Sometimes there's too much food, #though. [STOPLIP:]
[XS:seitalk,1][C:17]Sei:[C:C] So at the end of the party, she lets #the staff take home whatever's left.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:seitalk,1][C:17]Sei:[C:C] She also buys toys for all the #children of her staff members.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Really?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:seiface,happy][XS:seitalk,1][C:17]Sei:[C:C] She says something about taxes or #whatever, but during the whole thing, she #just... shines.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:seitalk,1][C:17]Sei:[C:C] She carries a beaming smile that I #don't see any other day of the year.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:seitalk,1][C:17]Sei:[C:C] Many of the kids have even started #calling her "Auntie Ella".[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Heh...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:seiface,][XS:seitalk,1][C:17]Sei:[C:C] Stella always does her best to put up #a tough girl facade, but she's very much #in touch with her inner child.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:seitalk,1][C:17]Sei:[C:C] Christmas, Easter, Halloween. Name a #party and she most likely celebrates it #big.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Interesting.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:seitalk,1][C:17]Sei:[C:C] Do you like parties, Jill?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I don't mind them. They're a good #place to see people.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I'm not one to actively look for #parties to attend, though. I just... don't #mind going to them.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:seitalk,1][C:17]Sei:[C:C] Ah, I see.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:seitalk,1][C:17]Sei:[C:C] I only go to parties that Stella is #attending. Because otherwise, I'd just #stand there without anything to say.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:seitalk,1][C:17]Sei:[C:C] That and... I'm not one to wear #dresses, you know?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] You're not?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:seitalk,1][C:17]Sei:[C:C] I'm a tad too ripped. They don't look #cute on me.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:seitalk,1][C:17]Sei:[C:C] Although, with all this healing I #have to do, I won't be as fit for a while.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:seiface,sad][XS:seitalk,1][C:17]Sei:[C:C] They're too... um... breezy too. I #feel like I'm wearing nothing.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:seiface,][XS:seitalk,1][C:17]Sei:[C:C] But I bet you'd look good in a dress, #Jill.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] It's been years since I last wore #one. I wouldn't know.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Last time I wore one, I remember #worrying my arms were too thin or #something like that.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:seitalk,1][C:17]Sei:[C:C] We all have a complex, huh?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:seitalk,1][C:17]Sei:[C:C] I mean, even Stella has her own.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] That's... hard to imagine.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:seitalk,1][C:17]Sei:[C:C] Oh, but she does have one. She #distresses a lot about her bust size.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Really? She's not that small. I think #I'm smaller than her, in fact.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:seitalk,1][C:17]Sei:[C:C] Actually, it's the opposite. The #opposite kind of complex, I mean.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:seitalk,1][C:17]Sei:[C:C] She's a bit self-conscious about having #a big chest.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Really?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] ...again, I've seen bigger chests than #hers, to be honest.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Although I guess comparisons are #useless here. They rarely help with #complexes.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:seitalk,1][C:17]Sei:[C:C] Well, she does go the extra mile to #hide it.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:seitalk,1][C:17]Sei:[C:C] In fact, I have no idea how she does #it.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:seitalk,1][C:17]Sei:[C:C] I mean, I've seen her before and after #she tucks them away, but... I guess I never #cared enough to ask the specifics.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:seitalk,1][C:17]Sei:[C:C] That's also why when she goes out, she #styles her hair in those... um...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Drills?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:seitalk,1][C:17]Sei:[C:C] They look a bit drill-y, don't they?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:seitalk,1][C:17]Sei:[C:C] She styles her hair like that to help #divert attention away from her chest.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] She seems affluent enough, why not go #through a reduction surgery?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:seitalk,1][C:17]Sei:[C:C] Because she also kinda likes having that #size.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:seitalk,1][C:17]Sei:[C:C] She takes her bust size after her mom. #And Miss Carmine is quite proud of her #chest.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:seiface,happy][XS:seitalk,1][C:17]Sei:[C:C] "Puffing out your chest is a sign of #confidence! And a bigger chest means #more confidence to show!"[STOPLIP:]
[XS:seitalk,1][C:17]Sei:[C:C] She says something along those lines a #lot.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:seiface,][XS:seitalk,1][C:17]Sei:[C:C] Stella has quite the admiration for her #mom, so I guess breast reduction would feel #like betraying her?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Huh...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:seitalk,1][C:17]Sei:[C:C] I'm making it sound like she's hiding #J cups or something like that.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:seitalk,1][C:17]Sei:[C:C] I guess in a taller or thicker person, #her size would be normal. She's just a bit #shorter or thinner than the norm.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:seitalk,1][C:17]Sei:[C:C] Do you get self-conscious about your #bust size, Jill?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Not really. I've been more #self-conscious about my height.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Although it usually comes up whenever #not being average height hinders me somehow.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] What about you?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:seitalk,1][C:17]Sei:[C:C] Yes and... no?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:seiface,sad][XS:seitalk,1][C:17]Sei:[C:C] It's not my bust size, but rather that #I look too manly sometimes.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:seitalk,1][C:17]Sei:[C:C] And I can't help but wonder if bigger #boobs would help with that.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] You're fine, don't worry.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:seiface,happy][XS:seitalk,1][C:17]Sei:[C:C] Thank you.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Can I get you anything else?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:seiface,][XS:seitalk,1][C:17]Sei:[C:C] Hm...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:seitalk,1][C:17]Sei:[C:C] Do you have something non-alcoholic?[STOPLIP:]

[XS:seitalk,1][C:17]Sei:[C:C] It makes me feel sleepy or, at the #very least, makes my legs go numb.[STOPLIP:]

[XS:seitalk,1][C:17]Sei:[C:C] It might be expired, then.[STOPLIP:]

[XS:seitalk,1][C:17]Sei:[C:C] You feel like you're sleepy even when #you're not...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:seitalk,1][C:17]Sei:[C:C] Your legs go numb. Everything starts #sounding funnier than it really is...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:seitalk,1][C:17]Sei:[C:C] What's so good about not being able #to control yourself?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] That's... a good question, actually.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Usually people like feeling numb #because that numbness helps them forget #their problems.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Even if we don't talk about alcohol, #there's a portion of people that can't #afford food... [STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Or who are suffering from some pain #that only alleviates when drunk or high.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] It doesn't sound really logical on #paper, but then again, humans are rarely, #if ever, logical creatures.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Despair and pain cloud your #judgement and make you do stupid things #sometimes...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:seiface,sad][XS:seitalk,1][C:17]Sei:[C:C] ...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:seitalk,1][C:17]Sei:[C:C] Yeah... I've seen that firsthand.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:seitalk,1][C:17]Sei:[C:C] This world has an ugly side nobody #deserves to be a part of.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:seitalk,1][C:17]Sei:[C:C] ...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] *ahem*[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] There's also a matter of addiction, #you know? [STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] You start just liking the drink, but #then you need more of it and before you #know it, you're hooked.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:seiface,][XS:seitalk,1][C:17]Sei:[C:C] Oh yeah, that too.[XS:ph,6][E:40][STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] You don't like things going to waste?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:seiface,happy][XS:seitalk,1][C:17]Sei:[C:C] That's something that stuck with me, #thanks to Stella, actually.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:seitalk,1][C:17]Sei:[C:C] She's not a cheapskate by any means, #but she's a bit obsessive about making #sure things don't go to waste.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:seiface,][XS:seitalk,1][C:17]Sei:[C:C] No food goes to the trash bin. [STOPLIP:]
[XS:seitalk,1][C:17]Sei:[C:C] She always gives it to her pets, or #makes fertilizer out of it if no one else #is gonna eat it.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:seiface,sorry][XS:seitalk,1][C:17]Sei:[C:C] It can get annoying when you try to #peel a vegetable or fruit near her.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:seitalk,1][C:17]Sei:[C:C] At best, she scolds you for not doing #it right. [STOPLIP:]
[XS:seitalk,1][C:17]Sei:[C:C] At worst, she rambles about the #nutrients in the skin and makes you cook #it without peeling it.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:seitalk,1][C:17]Sei:[C:C] So, any time I see something that #might go to waste, I can just... HEAR #Stella scolding me for it.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Huh, you'd think it'd be the #opposite.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:seiface,][XS:seitalk,1][C:17]Sei:[C:C] I can't speak for other rich people, #but Stella's family has always been #really down-to-earth.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:seitalk,1][C:17]Sei:[C:C] They do indulge in expensive things #from time to time, but otherwise they're #pretty simple people.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:seiface,happy][XS:seitalk,1][C:17]Sei:[C:C] Maybe that's the reason I've been #friends with her all this time. I doubt #I would've been able to otherwise.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Oh.[XS:ph,6][E:41][STOPLIP:]
[XS:seiface,][XS:seitalk,1][C:17]Sei:[C:C] So tell me, what kind of party are #you guys throwing?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Nothing fancy. It'll just be me, #Boss, Gil and a couple of regulars.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] They'll bring food. We'll chat for a #while, and that's it.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:seiface,happy][XS:seitalk,1][C:17]Sei:[C:C] Man, that sounds so good.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:seitalk,1][C:17]Sei:[C:C] At least better than the whole #planning madness Stella is throwing right #now.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:seitalk,1][C:17]Sei:[C:C] If you ever throw something like that #again, you let me know, you hear?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Sure.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] ...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Hey, Sei...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:seiface,][XS:seitalk,1][C:17]Sei:[C:C] Yeah?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] What do you plan on doing now?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:seitalk,1][C:17]Sei:[C:C] I'm gonna check one last errand #before going home.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] No, I mean... what do you plan on #doing now, with the White Knights #disbanded and all?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:seitalk,1][C:17]Sei:[C:C] ...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:seiface,sad][XS:seitalk,1][C:17]Sei:[C:C] To be honest, I don't know.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:seitalk,1][C:17]Sei:[C:C] I never prepared a Plan B because I #figured, if you can go with a Plan B, why #not just make it the Plan A?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:seitalk,1][C:17]Sei:[C:C] I'm not the brightest person, so I #never graduated from college or even high #school.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:seitalk,1][C:17]Sei:[C:C] I could go for a position with the #police, but it wouldn't be as #thrilling...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:seitalk,1][C:17]Sei:[C:C] ...and I'm tired of blatant #corruption. Sick of it.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Oh...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:seiface,][XS:seitalk,1][C:17]Sei:[C:C] But I'm alive.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Hm?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:seitalk,1][C:17]Sei:[C:C] I learned something after that hell #in Apollo Trust.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:seitalk,1][C:17]Sei:[C:C] Life is not something that you can #just throw away easily.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:seitalk,1][C:17]Sei:[C:C] Clawing my way out of that place made #me realize just how much I wanna #be alive.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:seitalk,1][C:17]Sei:[C:C] The body count left in the bank was #ridiculous, but I'm still here.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:seiface,happy][XS:seitalk,1][C:17]Sei:[C:C] I don't know what I'll do, but I'm #alive. I'll figure it out sooner or later.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] That's nice to know.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:seitalk,1][C:17]Sei:[C:C] Well, I gotta go.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:seitalk,1][C:17]Sei:[C:C] Bye Jill! Good luck with the party![XS:seihide,1][STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Please come again.[XS:client,5][XS:ph,1][E:42][STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Welcome to Valhalla.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Oh. Hi, Mr. Detective.[STOPLIP:]
[SHOW:185,sprite_art][XS:arttalk,1][C:26]Art:[C:C] Ah. Hey there, girl.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:arttalk,1][C:26]Art:[C:C] Give me a strong drink, won't you?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Alright.[XS:mix,1][XS:ph,2][E:43][STOPLIP:]
[RES:][XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Here you go.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:arttalk,1][C:26]Art:[C:C] Yes, this'll do.[XS:mix,0][XS:ph,3][E:44][STOPLIP:]
[RES:][XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Here.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:arttalk,1][C:26]Art:[C:C] Not strong enough, kid. I ain't #paying for this.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] (You could at least try not to look #happy saying that.)[XS:mix,0][XS:ph,3][E:45][STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] So, what brought you here?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:arttalk,1][C:26]Art:[C:C] Nothing special. I was just working #on a case and I happened to be in the area.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] What kind of work?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:arttalk,1][C:26]Art:[C:C] Tracking someone... a gun-for-hire.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] What about the girl? Crimson #something.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:arttalk,1][C:26]Art:[C:C] I am tracking that girl.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Didn't you just get out of that job?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:artface,sigh][XS:arttalk,1][C:26]Art:[C:C] I did, but the guy offered a huge #amount of money and... well... I just #couldn't refuse again.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Well, it's your life. Not mine.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I wonder, though. There has to be #more to that whole thing than just acting #as middleman to look for some murderer.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:arttalk,1][C:26]Art:[C:C] Hm...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:arttalk,1][C:26]Art:[C:C] Say, how safe is this place?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] We're protected by the BTC property #laws, the walls are soundproof... [STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] ...and I really couldn't give less #of a shit about selling info to anyone.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:artface,][XS:arttalk,1][C:26]Art:[C:C] Okay, then... wait. Soundproof walls? #Why?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Did you see those vending machines #outside?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] They're quite talkative, the #bastards. It'd be annoying without those #walls.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:arttalk,1][C:26]Art:[C:C] Alright then.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:arttalk,1][C:26]Art:[C:C] Have you heard of Lord Lance Lavender?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Nope.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:arttalk,1][C:26]Art:[C:C] He's some big name from Kanyevania. #His blood apparently has some weird #reaction to Glitch City's nanomachines.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:arttalk,1][C:26]Art:[C:C] Once in contact with the air, it #does nothing.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:arttalk,1][C:26]Art:[C:C] But if still fresh and touching #someone's blood, the nanomachines will #initiate a reaction. [STOPLIP:]
[XS:arttalk,1][C:26]Art:[C:C] Essentially, they'll just eat through #the other person's body until there's #nothing left.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:arttalk,1][C:26]Art:[C:C] They're using him as a guinea pig to see #what causes that reaction and if it could #be used to fight Nanomachine Rejection.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Uh-huh...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:artface,sigh][XS:arttalk,1][C:26]Art:[C:C] Well... turns out the Crimson Rose is #his daughter.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:arttalk,1][C:26]Art:[C:C] She left years ago to earn her living #here and he hasn't seen her ever since.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] He could be lying, you know?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:artface,][XS:arttalk,1][C:26]Art:[C:C] Doubt it. I did my research. She #really is his daughter.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Why didn't you figure that out #earlier?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:arttalk,1][C:26]Art:[C:C] I had no clue who was making the #contract, and tracking all the messages to #the source would've been too costly.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:arttalk,1][C:26]Art:[C:C] Knowing who the sender was made #things easier.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I see.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Can I get you anything else?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:arttalk,1][C:26]Art:[C:C] Hm... what about a Cobalt Velvet?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Okay.[XS:mix,1][XS:ph,4][E:46][STOPLIP:]
[RES:][XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Here you are.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:arttalk,1][C:26]Art:[C:C] Oh... you actually did it.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Were you expecting me to mess up so #you didn't have to pay?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:arttalk,1][C:26]Art:[C:C] N-No...[XS:mix,0][XS:ph,5][E:47][STOPLIP:]
[RES:][XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Here.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:arttalk,1][C:26]Art:[C:C] HA! Wrong drink![STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Sorry.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:arttalk,1][C:26]Art:[C:C] Don't be. Free drink![XS:mix,0][XS:ph,5][E:48][STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] So what made you accept the #contract, anyway? Keeping in mind all #the risks you told me last time?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:arttalk,1][C:26]Art:[C:C] He told me he wanted to see her again #one last time or, at the very least, #deliver her a message.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] He could've been lying.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:arttalk,1][C:26]Art:[C:C] Yes, people lie. You made your point.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:arttalk,1][C:26]Art:[C:C] Even then, I felt like I couldn't say #no.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:arttalk,1][C:26]Art:[C:C] I mean, I know what it's like not #being able to find your daughter...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:arttalk,1][C:26]Art:[C:C] What it's like to be apart from her, #not knowing what she's doing or even if #she's alright.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] You do?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:artface,sigh][XS:arttalk,1][C:26]Art:[C:C] I have a daughter. She's about your #age.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:arttalk,1][C:26]Art:[C:C] When she was a teen, we had a big #fight and she ran away from home.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:arttalk,1][C:26]Art:[C:C] At first, I just waited for her to #show up. But then I started getting #worried and went out to find her.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:arttalk,1][C:26]Art:[C:C] I couldn't find any trace of her. #Nobody had seen her. Soon, I was worried #if something might've happened to her. [STOPLIP:]
[XS:arttalk,1][C:26]Art:[C:C] I guess that's how my tracking skills #and list of contacts began to grow.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:arttalk,1][C:26]Art:[C:C] I finally found her, taking cover in #some dumpster, unconscious from starvation.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:arttalk,1][C:26]Art:[C:C] So yeah, I just couldn't say no to #his request of finding his daughter.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:arttalk,1][C:26]Art:[C:C] But I don't expect you to understand.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] ...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] So, how's the search going?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:artface,][XS:arttalk,1][C:26]Art:[C:C] I'm very close to finding her... that #girl's pretty good at covering her tracks.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:arttalk,1][C:26]Art:[C:C] Compared to the her from before the #bank incident, though, she seems slower, #somehow.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:arttalk,1][C:26]Art:[C:C] Either she's let her guard down or #something else is happening.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] What will you do when you find her?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:arttalk,1][C:26]Art:[C:C] I have this letter I'm supposed to #deliver to her.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:arttalk,1][C:26]Art:[C:C] I don't know what it says and I don't #want to find out.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] What if she tries to kill you?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:arttalk,1][C:26]Art:[C:C] I might not look like it, but I can #take care of myself, bartender.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:arttalk,1][C:26]Art:[C:C] You don't stay so long in this #business without picking up a couple of #tricks.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Yeah, I guess you're right.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:arttalk,1][C:26]Art:[C:C] Okay, I better go back to work before #her trail goes cold.[XS:arthide,1][STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Please come again.[STOPLIP:]
[SHOW:185,sprite_dana][XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] Are you done?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Yeah.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] Okay then! I want you here tomorrow #at 8 P.M. No working beforehand. The bar #will be closed tomorrow.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] Come dressed in your absolute best! #We're having a party after all.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Alright.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Where's Gil, by the way?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] He stored all of our things in his #home because of how close it was to the #stores.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] So I told him to go home already and #bring the stuff tomorrow.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I see.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Well, see you tomorrow, Boss.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] Hold on, wait a bit and I'll go with #you.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Oh, sure. Thanks.[XS:ph,6][E:49][STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] (I need to remember to buy more #cigars.)[XS:juke,1][XS:ph,-1][E:50][STOPLIP:]

[XS:radtalk,1][C:32]Rad Shiba:[C:C] Oh, I see.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] ...[XS:ph,3][E:3][STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Well then, Dorothy.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] Yes![STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Truth or Dare?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dare1,Jill][XS:dare2,Dorothy][XS:dare3,0][XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] Let's go with... Truth![STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Is there anything you have rejected #from clients?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] Those who want to roleplay with #mutilation.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Huh...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] I mean sure, I can take off my #limbs with no problem. I have to do that #for maintenance every now and again.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] But I'm not okay with doing it #for clients. Because first: that leaves me #defenseless, which I cannot allow by any #means.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] And second: Half of the time, the #roleplay involves a violent scenario.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] And there are some behaviours I #won't reinforce, namely non-consensual #violence of any kind.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Interesting.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] Alright then. My turn.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] You! Sweater pups![STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Me?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] Truth or Dare?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dare1,Dorothy][XS:dare2,Alma][XS:dare3,1][XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Um... Dare?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Man, you're brave... or stupid.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] Okay, I want you to say in the #most sultry voice you can muster: "admin #override".[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Okay...?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] *ahem*[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Admin... Override.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] ...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Happy?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] Yes, very.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] Seems you caused some collateral #damage here.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Hm?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:giltalk,1][C:19]Gillian:[C:C] I-I don't know what you're #talking about.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Don't mind me.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Seriously guys?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Well, let's see...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] You, the dog.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:radtalk,1][C:32]Rad Shiba:[C:C] My name is...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dare1,Alma][XS:dare2,the dog][XS:dare3,1][XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Yeah, whatever. I want you to bark.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:radtalk,1][C:32]Rad Shiba:[C:C] I haven't picked dare.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] I said: Bark.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:radtalk,1][C:32]Rad Shiba:[C:C] Bark![STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] I asked you to do it. Not to say it.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:radtalk,1][C:32]Rad Shiba:[C:C] Bark! Barking![STOPLIP:]
[XS:radtalk,1][C:32]Rad Shiba:[C:C] Hey! If I bark, then I'm the #king of the bar! 'cause I'm barking![STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] *pffft*[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Seriously, Jill?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Yeah, yeah. I have a lame sense of #humor. Whatever.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:radtalk,1][C:32]Rad Shiba:[C:C] Alright, my turn![STOPLIP:]
[XS:radtalk,1][C:32]Rad Shiba:[C:C] Hey J! Truth or Dare?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dare1,The dog][XS:dare2,Jill][XS:dare3,1][XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Um... Dare.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:radtalk,1][C:32]Rad Shiba:[C:C] Then... pet me![STOPLIP:]
[XS:dare1,The dog][XS:dare2,Jill][XS:dare3,0][XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I'll pick Truth.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:radtalk,1][C:32]Rad Shiba:[C:C] Okay... why are your nails so #thin?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] My... eh?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:radtalk,1][C:32]Rad Shiba:[C:C] Your nails! You won't be able #to dig with such flimsy nails![STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Um... all humans have nails like #these.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:radtalk,1][C:32]Rad Shiba:[C:C] Wait, they do?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:radtalk,1][C:32]Rad Shiba:[C:C] How do you dig?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] With shovels.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:radtalk,1][C:32]Rad Shiba:[C:C] You guys are weird.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] Why are you so reluctant to pet him?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Call it a gut feeling.[XS:ph,3][E:4][STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Okay then, dog.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:radtalk,1][C:32]Rad Shiba:[C:C] Yes![STOPLIP:]
[XS:dare1,Jill][XS:dare2,the dog][XS:dare3,0][XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I dare you to go out and stay there.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:radtalk,1][C:32]Rad Shiba:[C:C] That's easy![STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] ...[STOPLIP:][XS:doge,0]
[XS:dare1,][XS:dare2,][XS:dare3,0][XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] And that's one problem less.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] ...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] Well, why don't you continue in the #dog's place, Dorothy.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] Alright![STOPLIP:]
[XS:dare1,Dorothy][XS:dare2,Dana][XS:dare3,1][XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] I dare you, Dana, to pick up #honey and carry her like a bride![STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] Alright.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Wait, what?![STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] Come, Jill. Get up.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] ...![STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] ...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] (You're welcome.)[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Oh, shut up.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] Okay then, Jill.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Yes?![STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] Truth or Dare?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dare1,Dana][XS:dare2,Jill][XS:dare3,1][XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Um... dare?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] I want you to say...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] ...yes?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] "How can a clam cram in a clean #cream can?"[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] ...eh?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] It's a tongue twister. Say it.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] ...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] "How can a clam cram in a clean #cream can?"[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] Faster![STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] "How can a clam cram in a clean #cream can?" "How can a clam cram in a #clean cream can?"[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] You make it seem so easy...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] "How can a clam clam-..." Damn.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:giltalk,1][C:19]Gillian:[C:C] "How can a clam cram in a #crean-..." Agh![STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] "How can a cram-..." Oops.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] (Wait, Lilim get confused by #tongue twisters?)[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Um... Boss.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] Yes?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] You can drop me now.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] Oh, right.[XS:ph,3][E:5][STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Hm... Alma.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dare1,Jill][XS:dare2,Alma][XS:dare3,0][XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Let's go with Truth.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] What's the most uncomfortable thing #that has happened to those arms of yours?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Uncomfortable...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] They get stuck a lot on clothes and #fibers. Sometimes the joints get jammed #with cloth.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Just how much of those arms are #mechanical, anyway?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Less than you think. The only things #I truly lost were my hands.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] The arm muscles are still mine, #albeit with some enhancements.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] And my skin doesn't grow on them. #They're covered by the plates.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] It's more an enhancement than a #replacement, really.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Huh.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Well then...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Hey Boss![STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] Me?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Truth or Dare?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dare1,Alma][XS:dare2,Dana][XS:dare3,1][XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] Dare me. I dare you.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Hm... Use an Argentine Backbreaker #on Nick.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] Surely.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] NIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIICK!!![STOPLIP:]
[SHAKE:][XS:giltalk,1][C:19]Gillian:[C:C] whoAAAAAAAGH!![STOPLIP:]
[XS:giltalk,1][C:19]Gillian:[C:C] I give! I give![STOPLIP:]
[XS:dare1,Dana][XS:dare2,Gillian][XS:dare3,0][XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] Only after you answer this.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:giltalk,1][C:19]Gillian:[C:C] What?![STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] Does the name Joseph Valentine ring #any bells?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:giltalk,1][C:19]Gillian:[C:C] I know of a Joseph Shine, but not #Valentine.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] Joseph Shine... alright then...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:giltalk,1][C:19]Gillian:[C:C] ...I guess it's my turn, um...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:giltalk,1][C:19]Gillian:[C:C] Hey, Chief. Can you drop me?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] Oh, right.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:giltalk,1][C:19]Gillian:[C:C] ...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:giltalk,1][C:19]Gillian:[C:C] Hey, Jill. Truth or Dare?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dare1,Gillian][XS:dare2,Jill][XS:dare3,1][XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I'll pick Dare.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:giltalk,1][C:19]Gillian:[C:C] Pet the dog.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Yeah, whatever.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] C'mere, mutt.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:radtalk,1][C:32]Rad Shiba:[C:C] Yes! Come on! Pet me harder! Is #that all you've got?![STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Ah, fuck you.[XS:ph,3][E:6][STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Okay then, Gil. What do you pick?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dare1,Jill][XS:dare2,Gillian][XS:dare3,0][XS:giltalk,1][C:19]Gillian:[C:C] Um... truth.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] What's your last name?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dare1,Jill][XS:dare2,Gillian][XS:dare3,1][XS:giltalk,1][C:19]Gillian:[C:C] Dare! I pick Dare![STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] ...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Try to make a Sugar Rush with your #eyes closed.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:giltalk,1][C:19]Gillian:[C:C] Alright.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] ...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:giltalk,1][C:19]Gillian:[C:C] Here.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] This is a Beer...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Well, it works... I think.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:giltalk,1][C:19]Gillian:[C:C] My turn, right? Well...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] Me! Pick me![STOPLIP:]
[XS:giltalk,1][C:19]Gillian:[C:C] You, the dog.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] Come on![STOPLIP:]
[XS:dare1,Gillian][XS:dare2,the dog][XS:dare3,1][XS:radtalk,1][C:32]Rad Shiba:[C:C] Dare! I dare you![STOPLIP:]
[XS:giltalk,1][C:19]Gillian:[C:C] No, I'm the one that dares you.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:radtalk,1][C:32]Rad Shiba:[C:C] Bring it on![STOPLIP:]
[XS:giltalk,1][C:19]Gillian:[C:C] Um... sit.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:radtalk,1][C:32]Rad Shiba:[C:C] Sir! Yes sir![STOPLIP:]
[XS:giltalk,1][C:19]Gillian:[C:C] You're not sitting.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:radtalk,1][C:32]Rad Shiba:[C:C] Sir! Yes sir![STOPLIP:]
[XS:giltalk,1][C:19]Gillian:[C:C] ...whatever, you did it.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dare1,The dog][XS:dare2,Alma][XS:dare3,1][XS:radtalk,1][C:32]Rad Shiba:[C:C] Alright! You, the blonde. Pet #me.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Eh, whatever.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:radtalk,1][C:32]Rad Shiba:[C:C] Your hands are cold.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Colder than your usual hands, I #guess.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Alright then... Jill![STOPLIP:]
[XS:dare1,Alma][XS:dare2,Jill][XS:dare3,1][XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I'll go with Dare.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Give me a shoulder massage.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] ...really?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Really.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Okay...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] ...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] You are good at this.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] My grandpa taught me how years ago.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] How old were you when your grandpa #died?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] 14 or so, if memory serves right.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Then he was-...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] ...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Sorry. Need to use the bathroom.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] Jill... what did that massage do #exactly?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] It was a regular massage. I might #have accidentally unclasped her bra #though. [STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] It felt like something snapped.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] Well, just imagine the pressure #the poor thing must be a subject to.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:giltalk,1][C:19]Gillian:[C:C] You have a pretty triumphant look #on your face though.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Wouldn't you?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:giltalk,1][C:19]Gillian:[C:C] I wonder...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] If everyone's done talking about my #bra, let's move on.[XS:ph,3][E:7][STOPLIP:]
[XS:dare1,][XS:dare2,][XS:dare3,0][XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] (I wonder how long until the food is #done.)[XS:sunday,0][XS:ph,4][E:8][STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Alright, Boss. Pick.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dare1,Jill][XS:dare2,Dana][XS:dare3,0][XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] Truth me.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] How did you get your arm?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dare1,Jill][XS:dare2,Dana][XS:dare3,1][XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] On second thought, dare me.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] ...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Lift Gil by the neck of his shirt.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] Okay.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:giltalk,1][C:19]Gillian:[C:C] Eh?![STOPLIP:]
[XS:giltalk,1][C:19]Gillian:[C:C] Wah![STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] Happy?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I guess. Who cares? I didn't hear #about your arm.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:giltalk,1][C:19]Gillian:[C:C] I do! I care![STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] Alright, Gil. Now that I have you in #this position, answer me.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:giltalk,1][C:19]Gillian:[C:C] I didn't pick...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dare1,Dana][XS:dare2,Gillian][XS:dare3,0][XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] You're in no position to pick! Now #answer![STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] Did you live in Scotland for two #years?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:giltalk,1][C:19]Gillian:[C:C] Scotland? No...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] I guess that rules out a couple of #possibilities...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:giltalk,1][C:19]Gillian:[C:C] Um... Chief...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] What? Oh right, I'm still lifting #you. Sorry.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:giltalk,1][C:19]Gillian:[C:C] And now she apologizes...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:giltalk,1][C:19]Gillian:[C:C] I guess it's my turn...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:giltalk,1][C:19]Gillian:[C:C] Hey, Alma. Truth or Dare?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dare1,Gillian][XS:dare2,Alma][XS:dare3,1][XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Hm... Dare.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] Oh! Oh! I have a suggestion![STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] You stay quiet.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] Fiiiiiiiiine.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:giltalk,1][C:19]Gillian:[C:C] Hm... how strong are those arms #of yours?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] It's still my muscles under them #so... not very.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Although not having fleshy skin #makes things easier.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Wait. That's Truth, not Dare.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:giltalk,1][C:19]Gillian:[C:C] I just wanted to make sure.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:giltalk,1][C:19]Gillian:[C:C] I dare you to break this nut with #your hands.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Okay.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:giltalk,1][C:19]Gillian:[C:C] Well, that was easy.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] Holy shit, Gil. Are you really into #that?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:giltalk,1][C:19]Gillian:[C:C] Eh?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Asking a woman to break a nut in her #hands and then watching her eat it, does #that turn you on?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:giltalk,1][C:19]Gillian:[C:C] Eh?![STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] Wait, wait... is this an actual #thing that turns guys on? I need to know #for professional reasons.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:giltalk,1][C:19]Gillian:[C:C] *sigh*[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] ...you're a pervert, Gilbert.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:giltalk,1][C:19]Gillian:[C:C] Gil-... wait, that was close this #time.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] My turn then? Alright.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Hey Jill, pick.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dare1,Alma][XS:dare2,Jill][XS:dare3,0][XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Um... truth.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Okay then. What's your most #embarrassing childhood dream?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Um... elaborate?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] For example: when I was a girl I #wanted to be a "Professional Puzzle #Master".[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] I guess, in a way, I accomplished #that, but you understand.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] ...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I wanted to be a... ventriloquist.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Huh?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] When I was a child, I liked this #show called Lucia's Fun House.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] The one with the woman in the house #with the talking stuff?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] That one.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] My parents divorced when I was #around... six, I think.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Mom was on tour with an orchestra #and my dad was working constantly.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I spent a lot of time with my #grandpa, but he slept a lot, so I was on #my own most of the time.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I liked to pretend things like #chairs or beds could talk. And since AI #wasn't so advanced back then...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Anyway, I went to a magic show once, #and there was this guy making a puppet #talk.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] My dad told me he was a #"ventriloquist" so I kinda obsessed about #wanting to be one.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Even today, I'd be lying if I said #that I don't think about it every now and #then.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] So that's why you pretend Fore can #talk.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] She what?![STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Nothing.[XS:ph,6][E:9][STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Hm... Dorothy.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dare1,Jill][XS:dare2,Dorothy][XS:dare3,1][XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] Yes! I pick Dare![STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Okay, I want you to put your leg #behind your head.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] Just that? Alright...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] So, the extra-flexible joints #weren't just a bluff.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] I never bluff![STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] I'm pretty sure I heard something #rip though.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] Okay then. Dana![STOPLIP:]
[XS:dare1,Dorothy][XS:dare2,Dana][XS:dare3,1][XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] I pick Dare.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] I dare you to stare honey #straight in the eyes for ten seconds.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] Hm? Sure.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] ...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] ...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Um...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] ...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Please, stop.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] Seven seconds...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] ...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] And done.[XS:ph,5][E:10][STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] Okay then, dog![STOPLIP:]
[XS:radtalk,1][C:32]Rad Shiba:[C:C] Yes! Challenge me![STOPLIP:]
[XS:dare1,Dana][XS:dare2,the dog][XS:dare3,1][XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] Chase your tail... but only make #three spins. No more, no less.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:radtalk,1][C:32]Rad Shiba:[C:C] Alright![STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] ...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:radtalk,1][C:32]Rad Shiba:[C:C] Done![STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] That was four.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:radtalk,1][C:32]Rad Shiba:[C:C] And now?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] Two.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:radtalk,1][C:32]Rad Shiba:[C:C] AAAAAAAAAAAAAGH![STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] That was three. Good job.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:radtalk,1][C:32]Rad Shiba:[C:C] Alright![STOPLIP:]
[XS:radtalk,1][C:32]Rad Shiba:[C:C] Hey J! Pick one![STOPLIP:]
[XS:dare1,The dog][XS:dare2,Jill][XS:dare3,1][XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Dare.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:radtalk,1][C:32]Rad Shiba:[C:C] I dare you to call me a good #boy![STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] ...good boy.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:radtalk,1][C:32]Rad Shiba:[C:C] Yes!!![XS:ph,6][E:11][STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] Okay, then... Gil![STOPLIP:]
[XS:giltalk,1][C:19]Gillian:[C:C] Yes?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dare1,Dana][XS:dare2,Gillian][XS:dare3,0][XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] Truth or Truth?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:giltalk,1][C:19]Gillian:[C:C] Um... truth?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] Have you ever heard of the Unicorn #Gang?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:giltalk,1][C:19]Gillian:[C:C] Ah, yeah. The person that got me #into Glitch City is part of it, actually.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] Dammit, that makes me backtrack a #bit.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:giltalk,1][C:19]Gillian:[C:C] ...?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:giltalk,1][C:19]Gillian:[C:C] Okay then... hey Jill, pick.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dare1,Gillian][XS:dare2,Jill][XS:dare3,1][XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I'll go with Dare.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:giltalk,1][C:19]Gillian:[C:C] Can you spin your twintails?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I guess...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:giltalk,1][C:19]Gillian:[C:C] Then please...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] ...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:giltalk,1][C:19]Gillian:[C:C] Um...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:giltalk,1][C:19]Gillian:[C:C] You're just spinning yourself on #the chair.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] And the twintails with me.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:giltalk,1][C:19]Gillian:[C:C] That's not what I had in mind.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Then be more specific next time.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] Your turn, Jill.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Hold on, I'm dizzy...[XS:ph,6][E:12][STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Okay then, dog.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:radtalk,1][C:32]Rad Shiba:[C:C] Yes![STOPLIP:]
[XS:dare1,Jill][XS:dare2,the dog][XS:dare3,1][XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I dare you to go out and stay there.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:radtalk,1][C:32]Rad Shiba:[C:C] That's easy![STOPLIP:][XS:doge,0]
[XS:dare1,][XS:dare2,][XS:dare3,0][XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] And that's one problem less.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] ...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] Well, then. Why don't you continue #in the dog's place, Dorothy?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] Alright![STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] Hey, sweater pups. What do you #pick?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dare1,Dorothy][XS:dare2,Alma][XS:dare3,1][XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Let's go with dare.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] I dare you to put on some #twintails![STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Sure.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Hey Jill, lend me your hair ties for #a second.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Alright.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] I haven't worn twintails since #elementary school, now that I think about #it.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Is this good?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] Yup![STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Alright, let me untie them. Too #breezy for my taste.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Then... Jill![STOPLIP:]
[XS:dare1,Alma][XS:dare2,Jill][XS:dare3,0][XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I'll go with Truth.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] If you had to spend two hours in a #pressurization chamber with someone, who #would you pick?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Out of what pool of people?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] The ones here right now.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Hm...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I guess either you or Jamie.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Oh?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Yeah, I mean. If I went into a #chamber with Dorothy, it'd be... fishy.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I know for certain that my Boss #would fall asleep because she gets bored #easily.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] And Gil is claustrophobic.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Phillip is claustrophobic?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:giltalk,1][C:19]Gillian:[C:C] I'm many things... [XS:ph,6][E:13][STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Alright then. Alma.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dare1,Jill][XS:dare2,Alma][XS:dare3,0][XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] I'll pick truth.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] What's the most embarrassing thing #that has happened to your arms?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Well...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] There was this one time when I got #mugged on the street so I... uh...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] I... kinda threw my hand at the #thief to knock him out.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Threw?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] I think it's what you usually call #a... rocket punch?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] So you didn't throw it so much as #it... propelled itself towards the thief.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Yup.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] And how is that embarrassing? [STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] It was just so cartoony! It's a bit #embarrassing.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] It's a bit impractical too. The hand #has a startup time after reattachment.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Yes, but... why add such a function?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] Why WOULDN'T you add such a function?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Well... because...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Boss, don't tell your arm can also...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] This hand of mine is awesome![STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] My turn, then...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] I'll pick Lorenzo.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:giltalk,1][C:19]Gillian:[C:C] Gillian.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Casimiro. Truth or Dare?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dare1,Alma][XS:dare2,Casimiro][XS:dare3,0][XS:giltalk,1][C:19]Gillian:[C:C] Um... Truth.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] How do you manage to keep that #stubble of yours at the same length all #the time?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:giltalk,1][C:19]Gillian:[C:C] How do I... eh?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] I mean, no matter when I come here, #whether it's at 3AM on a weekday or in the #afternoon on Sunday, you always have the #same three day beard.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] It never gets any longer, but you #also never shave. How the hell do you do #that?![STOPLIP:]
[XS:giltalk,1][C:19]Gillian:[C:C] Well...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] That's a good question, really.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Now that I think about it...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:giltalk,1][C:19]Gillian:[C:C] Uh...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:giltalk,1][C:19]Gillian:[C:C] I do shave, but... I use an #electric razor.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:giltalk,1][C:19]Gillian:[C:C] And set it quite low, so...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] ...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] You're not saying something. But #whatever.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:giltalk,1][C:19]Gillian:[C:C] A-Anyways.[XS:ph,5][E:14][STOPLIP:]
[XS:giltalk,1][C:19]Gillian:[C:C] Um... Chief, Truth or Dare?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dare1,Gillian][XS:dare2,Dana][XS:dare3,0][XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] Let's go with truth.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:giltalk,1][C:19]Gillian:[C:C] This is something I've been #meaning to ask for a long time.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:giltalk,1][C:19]Gillian:[C:C] Why is the bar called Valhalla if #your designation is "VA-11"? Shouldn't it #be "VA-1"?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] ...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] It WAS going to be that.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] When I applied for a bar owner #certification through the BTC, Brian told #me I would have the VA-1 code.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] BUT then came this one guy, and he #pulled some strings to get a certification #faster.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] He took MY position and I told Brian #to hold off until the VA-11 code became #available.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] This bar remained closed for five #months longer than it should have been.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] What kind of monster takes the #chance for a pun from someone?![STOPLIP:]
[XS:giltalk,1][C:19]Gillian:[C:C] ...right.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] Now I need something to cheer myself #up.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dare1,Dana][XS:dare2,Jill][XS:dare3,1][XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] Hey Jill, I dare you to make this #glass "talk."[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] ...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] Jill?[STOPLIP:]
[C:13]"Glass":[C:C] Oi! Whatcha lookin' at mate? Imma #hook ya in yer gabber. [STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] Wow, you actually did it.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] J-Just this once...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] Why that accent, though?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I don't know.[XS:ph,6][E:15][STOPLIP:]
[XS:giltalk,1][C:19]Gillian:[C:C] Um... let's see...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:giltalk,1][C:19]Gillian:[C:C] Hey, dog.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dare1,Gillian][XS:dare2,the dog][XS:dare3,1][XS:radtalk,1][C:32]Rad Shiba:[C:C] Dare! Dare![STOPLIP:]
[XS:giltalk,1][C:19]Gillian:[C:C] Then... play dead.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:radtalk,1][C:32]Rad Shiba:[C:C] AAAAGH!![STOPLIP:]
[XS:giltalk,1][C:19]Gillian:[C:C] ...![STOPLIP:]
[XS:radtalk,1][C:32]Rad Shiba:[C:C] There's not much time left.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:radtalk,1][C:32]Rad Shiba:[C:C] I-I want you to know...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:radtalk,1][C:32]Rad Shiba:[C:C] I always thought you were...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:radtalk,1][C:32]Rad Shiba:[C:C] ...a fuckboy.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:giltalk,1][C:19]Gillian:[C:C] ...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:radtalk,1][C:32]Rad Shiba:[C:C] I'm dead.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:radtalk,1][C:32]Rad Shiba:[C:C] I'm so dead.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dare1,The dog][XS:dare2,Jill][XS:dare3,1][XS:radtalk,1][C:32]Rad Shiba:[C:C] Hey J, I dare you to bury me.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Okay...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:radtalk,1][C:32]Rad Shiba:[C:C] I was joking! Joking! Don't #bury me for reals! I'm alive![XS:ph,6][E:16][STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Okay then, Gil. Pick your poison.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dare1,Jill][XS:dare2,Gillian][XS:dare3,0][XS:giltalk,1][C:19]Gillian:[C:C] Truth.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] How did you get into the city? How #did you end up here of all places?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:giltalk,1][C:19]Gillian:[C:C] To be honest... I just wandered #aimlessly for some time.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:giltalk,1][C:19]Gillian:[C:C] Stuff happened and I went from #place to place.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:giltalk,1][C:19]Gillian:[C:C] Eventually, I came across the #city and stumbled upon the bar.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:giltalk,1][C:19]Gillian:[C:C] Almost like it was destiny.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Huh.[XS:ph,5][E:17][STOPLIP:]
[XS:giltalk,1][C:19]Gillian:[C:C] Well then...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:giltalk,1][C:19]Gillian:[C:C] Hey Alma, Truth or Dare?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dare1,Gillian][XS:dare2,Alma][XS:dare3,1][XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Dare.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:giltalk,1][C:19]Gillian:[C:C] Try reading that sign without #your glasses.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Alright...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] "For... rela... xing times, make it #sun... "[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] The rest is torn off.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:giltalk,1][C:19]Gillian:[C:C] So you can see without them?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] I'm not blind. Just mildly #uncomfortable without my glasses.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Boss, what do you pick?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dare1,Alma][XS:dare2,Dana][XS:dare3,1][XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] I'll go with Dare.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Try to undo that bed hair of yours.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] Bed hair?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Yeah, you know, that one bit of hair #that's always protruding.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] I have no idea what you're saying.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Here, let me try...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] ...it's very tough.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Maybe if I split it... it rejoined #on its own?![STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] Silly Armitage.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] That ahoge is like my willpower.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] You. Can't. Placate. It.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] ...right.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] The fuck is an ahoge?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] Well, it's...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Boss, please continue.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] Right.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] Well then, Jill.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dare1,Dana][XS:dare2,Jill][XS:dare3,0][XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Truth.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] What would you do if Fore was a girl #AND pregnant?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I wouldn't do anything.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I mean, you educate them and give #them the tools, but it's up to them in the #end.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I'd just make sure she was able to #cope with it.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I'd only call myself a failure if it #was the result of personal #irresponsibility.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] But if it's her choice or if she's #at least able to take responsibility, #then I can only support her.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] After all, she didn't kill someone, #she's bringing a new life into this world.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] ...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Whoa.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] Hey Honey! Be my mom.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:giltalk,1][C:19]Gillian:[C:C] ...Jill, it's a hypothetical #scenario. And it's a cat.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Your point being?[XS:ph,6][E:18][STOPLIP:]
[XS:giltalk,1][C:19]Gillian:[C:C] Hm... Hey dog.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dare1,Gillian][XS:dare2,the dog][XS:dare3,0][XS:radtalk,1][C:32]Rad Shiba:[C:C] Truth![STOPLIP:]
[XS:giltalk,1][C:19]Gillian:[C:C] What's your owner's name?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:radtalk,1][C:32]Rad Shiba:[C:C] I'm not revealing it![STOPLIP:]
[XS:radtalk,1][C:32]Rad Shiba:[C:C] It might be Tom, it might be #James, it might be something else. But I'm #not revealing it![STOPLIP:]
[XS:radtalk,1][C:32]Rad Shiba:[C:C] What I CAN tell you is that my #name is-...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] What if he's called Tom James?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:radtalk,1][C:32]Rad Shiba:[C:C] WHO TOLD YOU?![STOPLIP:]
[XS:radtalk,1][C:32]Rad Shiba:[C:C] Okay then, who's YOUR owner, G?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] It's Boss.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] It's Dana, right?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] It's definitely Boss.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:giltalk,1][C:19]Gillian:[C:C] *sigh* Whatever. You take it from #here, Jill.[XS:ph,6][E:19][STOPLIP:]
[XS:dare1,][XS:dare2,][XS:dare3,0][XS:sunday,0][XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] (I'm getting hungry.)[XS:ph,7][E:20][STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Hm... Boss.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dare1,Jill][XS:dare2,Dana][XS:dare3,1][XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] I'll pick dare.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Can you lift me with just your #non-mechanical arm?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] ...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Alright, you can. You can! Please #put me down![STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] Well then. Hey Gil, Truth or Dare?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:giltalk,1][C:19]Gillian:[C:C] Can I really pick?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dare1,Dana][XS:dare2,Gillian][XS:dare3,1][XS:giltalk,1][C:19]Gillian:[C:C] Let's go with dare.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] Okay then. Please cross your arms.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:giltalk,1][C:19]Gillian:[C:C] Alright...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] Now turn a bit to the left...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:giltalk,1][C:19]Gillian:[C:C] ...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] I mean my left.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:giltalk,1][C:19]Gillian:[C:C] Oh![STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] A bit more... and now stand still #for a second.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:giltalk,1][C:19]Gillian:[C:C] ...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Boss, is that a picture?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] That it is.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] Nope, not even same race. Sorry for #the trouble.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:giltalk,1][C:19]Gillian:[C:C] You were comparing me to a pic?![STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] Yup.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:giltalk,1][C:19]Gillian:[C:C] Can I at least see it?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] No.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:giltalk,1][C:19]Gillian:[C:C] ...*sigh* Fine.[XS:ph,8][E:21][STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Okay then, Dorothy.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dare1,Jill][XS:dare2,Dorothy][XS:dare3,1][XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] Dare![STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Do something... freaky.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] Like removing my head?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Removing your...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] Because I can remove my head with #no problem.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] Do you want me to remove my head?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I'll pass. I take your word for it.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] Anyone wanna see that?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] No.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:giltalk,1][C:19]Gillian:[C:C] No thank you.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] I do, but... I'm not gonna be the #party pooper here.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] Fiiiiiiiiine. I guess it's my #turn now.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] Hey Dana. What do you pick?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dare1,Dorothy][XS:dare2,Dana][XS:dare3,0][XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] I'll pick truth.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] If you had to marry honey OR #John, who would you pick?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] Hm...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] Probably Jill.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Eh?![STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] I mean she's cute, she's smart...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] ...and I kinda own Gil anyways, so #it's kinda redundant.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] ...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:giltalk,1][C:19]Gillian:[C:C] ...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dare1,Dana][XS:dare2,Gillian][XS:dare3,0][XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] Speaking of Gil. Truth or Truth, #fuckboy?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:giltalk,1][C:19]Gillian:[C:C] Pick one for me.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] Well, where were you born?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:giltalk,1][C:19]Gillian:[C:C] I... don't really know.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:giltalk,1][C:19]Gillian:[C:C] It's one of those things I can't #remember or was never informed about.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:giltalk,1][C:19]Gillian:[C:C] Strangely, I do remember an early #childhood in the Arctic of all places.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] The Arctic. Huh...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Just "huh"?[XS:ph,8][E:22][STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Okay then, dog.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:radtalk,1][C:32]Rad Shiba:[C:C] Yes![STOPLIP:]
[XS:dare1,Jill][XS:dare2,the dog][XS:dare3,1][XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I dare you to go out and stay there.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:radtalk,1][C:32]Rad Shiba:[C:C] That's easy![STOPLIP:][XS:doge,0]
[XS:dare1,][XS:dare2,][XS:dare3,0][XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] And that's one problem less.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] ...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] Well then, I'll take the next turn.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] Yo, Armitage.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Yes?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dare1,Dana][XS:dare2,Alma][XS:dare3,1][XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] You're a hacker, right? I dare you #to hack a cute pic of Jill out of her #phone.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] I have old pics, cat pics, selfies. #Pick one.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] Wait, what?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Jill's phone is a CaliCOMP. They get #updates more than any other system in the #world.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] I've made it a weekly ritual to #update my CaliCOMP hack program and she's #my guinea pig.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] I hack into it once a week. And #since she takes daily pics, I just take #one for that week.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] If I'm missing a week, I just look #for the missing pic and investigate.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] Oooh, interesting.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] ...you guys do know I'm still here, #right?[XS:ph,8][E:23][STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Okay, Alma. Truth or Dare?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dare1,Jill][XS:dare2,Alma][XS:dare3,1][XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Hm... Dare.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Then I dare you to call Gil by his #real name.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Gillian.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] ...so you can actually do it.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Of course I can. But messing with #Dilbert is more fun.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:giltalk,1][C:19]Gillian:[C:C] ...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Well then, Dorothy. Truth or Dare?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dare1,Alma][XS:dare2,Dorothy][XS:dare3,0][XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] I'll pick truth.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Do you have any dreams you'd want to #eventually fulfill?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] Well, this might sound silly #but... I wanna work with kids.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Oh?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] I have a friend that works in an #orphanage. I help her from time to time.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] And I find it so much fun to work #with kids. I can't explain why...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] If I had to pick another job or #think of something I want to eventually #try, that would be it.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] Teacher, nurse, pediatrician. #Something like that.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] That wasn't an answer I expected.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Me neither.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] What are you implying?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] Okay! Hey, John! Pick![STOPLIP:]
[XS:dare1,Dorothy][XS:dare2,Gillian][XS:dare3,1][XS:giltalk,1][C:19]Gillian:[C:C] Um... Dare.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] I dare you to say something nice #about all of us playing.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:giltalk,1][C:19]Gillian:[C:C] *sigh* Well...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:giltalk,1][C:19]Gillian:[C:C] You are a pretty cheerful girl, #Dorothy.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] Of course I am.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:giltalk,1][C:19]Gillian:[C:C] Chief... well, I pretty much owe #you everything for giving my life any #semblance of order. [STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] Of course you do.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:giltalk,1][C:19]Gillian:[C:C] Alma... you can be a really #caring person.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] "Can be".[STOPLIP:]
[XS:giltalk,1][C:19]Gillian:[C:C] And Jill... you're a pretty smart #girl.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I wonder if that's true.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] So, is nobody gonna say anything #nice about him in return?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] What is there to say? He's one of #the nicest and most responsible guys I've #met.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] The kind that gets you talking #through an expression of sincere interest.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] The kind of guy that will go the #extra mile even when asked not to.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:giltalk,1][C:19]Gillian:[C:C] ...you could always say that more #frequently, you know?[XS:ph,8][E:24][STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Well then, Gil. What do you pick?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dare1,Jill][XS:dare2,Gillian][XS:dare3,1][XS:giltalk,1][C:19]Gillian:[C:C] I'll go with Dare.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I dare you to eat this bell pepper.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:giltalk,1][C:19]Gillian:[C:C] Truth! I meant Truth![STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Eat the bell pepper![STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] Eat it! Eat it! Eat it! Eat it! Eat #it! Eat it! Eat it! Eat it![STOPLIP:]
[XS:giltalk,1][C:19]Gillian:[C:C] I'd rather not...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] Eat it or I'll make your life #impossible next week! Eat it or I'll make #your life impossible next week![STOPLIP:]
[XS:giltalk,1][C:19]Gillian:[C:C] ...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:giltalk,1][C:19]Gillian:[C:C] Ugh...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Was that hard?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:giltalk,1][C:19]Gillian:[C:C] Yes.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:giltalk,1][C:19]Gillian:[C:C] *sigh* Anyways. What do you pick, #Alma?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dare1,Gillian][XS:dare2,Alma][XS:dare3,0][XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] I pick truth.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:giltalk,1][C:19]Gillian:[C:C] What's the most embarrassing #thing that has happened to you while drunk?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] I...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] I almost...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] ...bought a timeshare in Panama.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:giltalk,1][C:19]Gillian:[C:C] Eh?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] What?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] Ha![STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] I was on vacation with my family and #family's friends.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] We went to a hotel where a couple of #salesmen tried to coerce us into buying a #timeshare.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] When I was sober, it was obvious #bullshit.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] But then I fell into their trap with #the free bar.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Were it not for my brother-in-law, #I'd be forever doomed to spend one week a #year in Panama.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] You could just not go.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] And lose my money? Forget it.[XS:ph,8][E:25][STOPLIP:]
[XS:dare1,][XS:dare2,][XS:dare3,0][XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] A bell?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Food's ready![STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] Finally![STOPLIP:]
[XS:giltalk,1][C:19]Gillian:[C:C] Let's go![STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] You guys go ahead. I'll have a quick #smoke outside.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] Careful.[XS:ph,9][E:26][STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] G'evening.[STOPLIP:]
[SHOW:185,sprite_dana][XS:danaface,worry][XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] Jill! I told you to come in the #nicest clothes you have![STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] You came in your uniform![STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] ...these ARE the nicest clothes I #have with me.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Besides, you and Gil are in #your uniforms too.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:danaface,worry][XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] Well, I can't really show up in #casual clothing. I'm being monitored.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] What about the kilt you wore that #one time?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] I'm still surprised that one didn't #break the dress code somehow.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] And you, Gil?[STOPLIP:]
[SHOW:280,sprite_dana][SHOW:120,sprite_gil][XS:gilface,fucked][XS:giltalk,1][C:19]Gillian:[C:C] I don't have that many clothes to #begin with.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:danaface,worry][XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] You people depress me.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:gilhide,1][SHOW:120,sprite_alma][XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Well, everything's in place back #there.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Ah, Alma's here.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almaface,sigh][XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] You know, there was a time when #people greeted others before saying stuff #like that.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:danaface,][XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] Come on, Jill. Greet her properly.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Welcome to Valha-... wait.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:giltalk,1][C:19]Gillian:[C:C] AHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!![STOPLIP:]
[XS:almaface,smile][XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Man, if that's not a sign that you #need to ease up on the work, I don't know #what is.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Shut up. It's become a reflex.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Wait. Alma also came in her usual #attire. Why aren't you saying anything to #her?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] Ribbed sweaters get a free pass.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Why?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:danaface,worry][XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] ...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Silly question. Nevermind.
[XS:giltalk,1][C:19]Gillian:[C:C] Jamie came earlier too. The dogs #went with him to get some ice.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Don't we have ice?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:danaface,][XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] Trying to take it out of the #bartending station is a chore, so it's #better to buy some outside.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Huh...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] What were you doing back there, Alma?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almaface,][XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Setting up the food warmer.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] The what?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] I bought it three days ago.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] It's amazing. It looks like just a #set of wires, but you can create a frame #with them.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] Put the food inside it, press a #button and watch as it warms the food up #just like a microwave![STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] It's an informercial bauble, though. #Really useful, but tricky to handle at #the same time.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almaface,sigh][XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] One wrong move and we'll be out of #food for the night.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Everything will be scorched in a #second.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Oh.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] So you've bought infomercial stuff #too?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almaface,][XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Haven't you? It's at the very least #a good idea for gifts.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Well...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] DYNAMIC ENTRYYYY!![STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Finally, at least somebody came #after me.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:danhide,1][SHOW:280,sprite_doro][XS:doroface,pachi][XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] Is it weird that I've already #heard that three times in the last hour?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] *sigh* [STOPLIP:]
[XS:almaface,smile][XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Oh, don't be like that. She's not #saying it out of malice or anything. She #just found it funny.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] You're taking her side now?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Jealous?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] You wish.[STOPLIP:]

[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] It's doing well, but it'll take a #bit.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] Can't you speed it up?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] I've used those microwave wire #things before. It's either "warm nicely #but slowly" or "burn that bitch". [STOPLIP:]
[XS:danaface,][XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] So, how long?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] 15 minutes or so. A bell will ring #when the time comes.[STOPLIP:]

[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Are you leaving already?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Yeah. Technically, we celebrated #Mega Christmas yesterday...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] ...but I just got a message that #Dayana is making a ruckus, so I gotta #leave.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Good luck with that.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Speaking of ruckus, how have you #been doing?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Fine, I guess. All of this has #helped keep my mind off things for a while.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] *sigh*[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I-Is it weird to feel the absence of #someone you had no contact with whatsoever #for the last three years?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Ask Katyusha, or any of the "old #literature maidens whose spouse went to #war" types.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] I mean, even if you had no contact #with her, maybe she was constantly on your #mind.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] If you tweak the circumstances, it's #not that different from one of you going #to a war.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I guess...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Well, although the circumstances #make me not want to, I've gotta go.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Careful out there.[STOPLIP:]

[SHOW:185,sprite_virgilio][XS:virgiliotalk,1][C:29]Virgilio:[C:C] Why do you sound so weirded out?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] You didn't show up with a... #bombastic soliloquy.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:virgilioface,serious][XS:virgiliotalk,1][C:29]Virgilio:[C:C] Well, putting up an act can be #tiring, you know?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] So it's all an act, then?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:virgilioface,][XS:virgiliotalk,1][C:29]Virgilio:[C:C] Wasn't it obvious?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I guess...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:virgiliotalk,1][C:29]Virgilio:[C:C] Would you mind getting me a #Bleeding Jane?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Sure.[XS:mix,1][XS:ph,3][E:3][STOPLIP:]
[RES:][XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] A Bleeding Jane.[STOPLIP:]

[RES:][XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Here.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:virgiliotalk,1][C:29]Virgilio:[C:C] This isn't a Bleeding Jane.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Uh... actually my name is Jane and #I'm bleeding, so... um...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:virgiliotalk,1][C:29]Virgilio:[C:C] Hahaha! You can be quite #creative with your excuses, Miss Bartender.[XS:ph,4][XS:mix,0][E:5][STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] So... tired of putting on an act. #Care to explain?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:virgiliotalk,1][C:29]Virgilio:[C:C] It's a long story. And I'd #honestly rather not talk about it right #now.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Fair enough. What made you change #your mind, though?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:virgiliotalk,1][C:29]Virgilio:[C:C] Well, for one thing, it's safer #for me now. The pompous buffoon act was #mostly a way to avoid raising suspicion.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Safer? There's a word that's been #losing meaning lately.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Wait... THAT was your way of #avoiding suspicion?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:virgiliotalk,1][C:29]Virgilio:[C:C] Yes.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] ...you do know how weird that #sounds, right?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:virgiliotalk,1][C:29]Virgilio:[C:C] It sounds weird?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] You try not to raise suspicion, but #you act in a bombastic manner that screams #you're there.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:virgiliotalk,1][C:29]Virgilio:[C:C] And everyone dismisses the fool #as a buffoon and moves on.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] ...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] ...eh?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:virgiliotalk,1][C:29]Virgilio:[C:C] I mean, you might be right if I #were talking about hiding myself.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:virgiliotalk,1][C:29]Virgilio:[C:C] But I'm avoiding certain... #crowds of people.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:virgiliotalk,1][C:29]Virgilio:[C:C] Yes, my behaviour might call #everyone's attention.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:virgiliotalk,1][C:29]Virgilio:[C:C] But then everyone just decides #I'm harmless and disregards me.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:virgiliotalk,1][C:29]Virgilio:[C:C] And depending on how erratic my #actions are, I become harder to read.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:virgiliotalk,1][C:29]Virgilio:[C:C] Giving me yet another layer of #enigma.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Huh.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Well, congrats. No offense, but I #fell right into your plan.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I just dismissed your actions as #those of a fool and moved on.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] You completely fooled me.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:virgiliotalk,1][C:29]Virgilio:[C:C] Thanks.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:virgiliotalk,1][C:29]Virgilio:[C:C] Say, can you give me something #spicy?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Sure.[XS:ph,5][XS:mix,1][E:6][STOPLIP:]
[RES:][XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Here.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:virgiliotalk,1][C:29]Virgilio:[C:C] Aren't you fascinated by #spiciness?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:virgiliotalk,1][C:29]Virgilio:[C:C] What's spicy for humans might #not be spicy for other animals.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:virgiliotalk,1][C:29]Virgilio:[C:C] Hell, what's toxic for us might #not be for other creatures.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:virgiliotalk,1][C:29]Virgilio:[C:C] Do you like spicy things, #bartender?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I don't mind them, I guess. But I'm #not really a fan.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:virgiliotalk,1][C:29]Virgilio:[C:C] That neutral stance is actually #weird to come across.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:virgiliotalk,1][C:29]Virgilio:[C:C] Everyone either loves spicy #things or hates them with passion.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Do you like it?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:virgiliotalk,1][C:29]Virgilio:[C:C] Lots. Not only in regards to #painfully spicy things, but also the way #mild or slight spice adds to a meal.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:virgiliotalk,1][C:29]Virgilio:[C:C] I've always had this dream of #opening a curry stand.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:virgiliotalk,1][C:29]Virgilio:[C:C] As things are, I might actually #pursue that dream.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Let me know if you do. I haven't had #curry in ages now.[XS:ph,6][XS:mix,0][E:7][STOPLIP:]
[RES:][XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Here.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:virgilioface,serious][XS:virgiliotalk,1][C:29]Virgilio:[C:C] Not spicy enough.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:virgiliotalk,1][C:29]Virgilio:[C:C] I hate it when things aren't #spicy enough.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] It burns the tongue a bit, though.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:virgiliotalk,1][C:29]Virgilio:[C:C] Not the same thing.[XS:ph,6][XS:mix,0][E:8][STOPLIP:]
[XS:virgilioface,][XS:virgiliotalk,1][C:29]Virgilio:[C:C] Hey, bartender... [STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Call me Jill.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:virgiliotalk,1][C:29]Virgilio:[C:C] I wanted to apologize.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Hm?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:virgiliotalk,1][C:29]Virgilio:[C:C] You put up with me all this time #without lashing out. I should apologize #for my behaviour, and thank you at that.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Don't worry. I actually feel like I #was too rude to you last time you came.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Granted, you came at a really bad #time, but...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I should be the one apologizing. #You're a client after all.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:virgiliotalk,1][C:29]Virgilio:[C:C] Well, don't. I'm actually #surprised that nobody else had violently #lashed out at me yet.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] You're making me curious as to who #you really are though.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Is Virgilio even your real name?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:virgiliotalk,1][C:29]Virgilio:[C:C] It might be, it might not.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] ...sometimes I wonder if I'm a #magnet for people who hide their identities #and sordid pasts.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Gil, Jamie, you...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:virgiliotalk,1][C:29]Virgilio:[C:C] Um... did you say something?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Just rambling. Pay me no mind.[XS:ph,7][E:9][STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] So, tell me. Why a steampunk museum?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:virgiliotalk,1][C:29]Virgilio:[C:C] I've always liked the steampunk #aesthetic. And that whole art movement is #fascinating.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:virgiliotalk,1][C:29]Virgilio:[C:C] It's always interesting to see #how certain currents mirror certain #cultures.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:virgiliotalk,1][C:29]Virgilio:[C:C] And in this case, how steampunk #takes from Victorian culture.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:virgiliotalk,1][C:29]Virgilio:[C:C] Non-Victorian examples are too #few and far between.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Interesting.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:virgiliotalk,1][C:29]Virgilio:[C:C] ...I also needed a job and the #director just so happened to be a friend #of mine.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Of course.[XS:ph,7][E:10][STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Now that I think about it, how did #you find this bar?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:virgiliotalk,1][C:29]Virgilio:[C:C] I was... avoiding some chaps and #came to this alley.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Huh... again.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:virgiliotalk,1][C:29]Virgilio:[C:C] "Again"?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] In my time here, I've heard "avoided #people and ended up here" enough times to #make me believe... [STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] That the original owner built the #bar here thinking about the runaway public.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:virgiliotalk,1][C:29]Virgilio:[C:C] You make me sound like a #criminal.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] You're not helping.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] The expression "runaway" doesn't #just mean people escaping the law though.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] We've had people avoiding stalkers #or solicitors.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I've seen people more shocked by an #insistent salesman than a shady figure.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Maybe because the salesman is a more #active predator? I don't know.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] A troublesome part of the city right #near the shopping district.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Let them know there's a bar and #they'll come.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] ...sorry. I should stop rambling to #myself so much.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:virgiliotalk,1][C:29]Virgilio:[C:C] I don't mind it.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:virgiliotalk,1][C:29]Virgilio:[C:C] ...do you think I'm sort of #criminal, though?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Like I said: you're not helping.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] But for all I know... you might be #the buffoon I've seen the other days.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:virgiliotalk,1][C:29]Virgilio:[C:C] In any case, can I get something #bitter here?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] On it.[XS:ph,8][XS:mix,1][E:11][STOPLIP:]

[XS:virgiliotalk,1][C:29]Virgilio:[C:C] This... isn't bitter.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Um... because you're the bitter one #now![STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] ...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Sorry.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:virgiliotalk,1][C:29]Virgilio:[C:C] Don't be. It wouldn't surprise #me if it became force of habit due to my #weird orders before.[XS:ph,9][XS:mix,0][E:13][STOPLIP:]
[XS:virgilioface,serious][XS:virgiliotalk,1][C:29]Virgilio:[C:C] That Cat Boomer the other day...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] What about her? Still scared of her?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:virgiliotalk,1][C:29]Virgilio:[C:C] Not really, but she looks so #familiar...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Maybe you're mixing her up with #another Cat Boomer?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:virgiliotalk,1][C:29]Virgilio:[C:C] No, that's not it...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:virgiliotalk,1][C:29]Virgilio:[C:C] It's like the bandaged girl last #time.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:virgiliotalk,1][C:29]Virgilio:[C:C] Even with the bandages, there's #just something really familiar about her.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Maybe you need to stop thinking #about it.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Answers usually come to you when you #stop stressing out.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:virgiliotalk,1][C:29]Virgilio:[C:C] You might be right.[XS:ph,10][E:14][STOPLIP:]

[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] What about her?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:virgiliotalk,1][C:29]Virgilio:[C:C] I feel like I've met her before. #I've been thinking a lot, but can't put my #finger on it.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Maybe you need to stop thinking #about it.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Answers usually come to you when you #stop stressing out.[STOPLIP:]

[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Welcome to Valhalla.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Oh, hello, Mister Detective.[STOPLIP:]
[SHOW:185,sprite_art][XS:artface,sigh][XS:arttalk,1][C:26]Art:[C:C] ...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] (And here we are, another mute #person wandering into the bar.)[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Anything I can get you?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:arttalk,1][C:26]Art:[C:C] Gut Punch.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Okay.[XS:ph,2][XS:mix,1][E:17][STOPLIP:]
[RES:][XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Here. [STOPLIP:]
[XS:arttalk,1][C:26]Art:[C:C] Oh, you got it right.[XS:ph,3][XS:mix,0][E:18][STOPLIP:]
[RES:][XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Here.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:arttalk,1][C:26]Art:[C:C] Alright! Free drink![XS:ph,3][XS:mix,0][E:19][STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] So, what's up now?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:arttalk,1][C:26]Art:[C:C] A bit of holiday blues, you could say.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] So you celebrate Mega Christmas?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:artface,][XS:arttalk,1][C:26]Art:[C:C] Why wouldn't I?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] You looked more like a Festivus kind #of guy.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:arttalk,1][C:26]Art:[C:C] Why does everyone keep saying that?![STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Well, Festivus IS a celebration #going against the capitalist madness that #is Mega Christmas.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] (And you know... cheapskate.)[STOPLIP:]
[XS:arttalk,1][C:26]Art:[C:C] If you have something to say, say it.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I'll refrain. [STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Although now that I think about it, #"holiday blues" is not really tied to a #specific celebration.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Just the season.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:arttalk,1][C:26]Art:[C:C] A season of consumerist craze.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:arttalk,1][C:26]Art:[C:C] Mega Christmas is just a mockery of #what the real Christmas once was.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:arttalk,1][C:26]Art:[C:C] I mean, the season has slowly become #enslaved to the corporations over time.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:arttalk,1][C:26]Art:[C:C] "Holiday spirit" can only be #manipulated so much.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:arttalk,1][C:26]Art:[C:C] But then came that Turbo Male guy. He #started a yearly tradition of dressing up #like Santa in the ring.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Turbo Male? That can't be his ring #name.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:arttalk,1][C:26]Art:[C:C] It is.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Really? Such a tacky name was #accepted?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:arttalk,1][C:26]Art:[C:C] His partner was Buster Master and his #rival was Dr. Chris Max. Tacky names were #not a problem.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I mean, I knew there was a wrestler #that dressed as Santa every year.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I also knew that the guy became #insanely popular and the stunt got out of #control.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] And, of course, that's the part #everyone sings about.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Santa became Nega Santa thanks to the #Redmond Family.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Nega Santa sees the error of his #ways and becomes the mighty Mega Santa, #renaming the holiday Mega Christmas.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:arttalk,1][C:26]Art:[C:C] And then every company jumped on the #bandwagon and Christmas was Mega Christmas #before anyone noticed.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] So you're telling me that the guy #who somehow managed to rename the #holiday...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Went by the ring name "Turbo Male"?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:arttalk,1][C:26]Art:[C:C] Yup.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] ...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] That makes the whole holiday sound #like a joke.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:arttalk,1][C:26]Art:[C:C] The holiday IS a joke.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] And you're telling me you don't #celebrate Festivus?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:artface,sigh][XS:arttalk,1][C:26]Art:[C:C] *sigh* No, I don't.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:arttalk,1][C:26]Art:[C:C] Do you know what kind of people #celebrate Festivus?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:arttalk,1][C:26]Art:[C:C] The kind that's so lame and bland #that they can only talk about how they're #better because they celebrate Festivus.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:arttalk,1][C:26]Art:[C:C] Like those jerks who only eat Nuke #and think they're better than everyone #else.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I see...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Anything else I can get you?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:artface,][XS:arttalk,1][C:26]Art:[C:C] Get me a Fringe Weaver, will you?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Sure.[XS:ph,4][XS:mix,1][E:20][STOPLIP:]
[RES:][XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Here.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:arttalk,1][C:26]Art:[C:C] Right, thanks.[XS:ph,5][XS:mix,0][E:21][STOPLIP:]
[RES:][XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Here you are.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:arttalk,1][C:26]Art:[C:C] Hah! Thanks a lot.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] (I wonder if he'd be happy if I gave #him thinner just because it's wrong and #thus free?)[XS:ph,5][XS:mix,0][E:22][STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Okay, we both know it's not holiday #blues. Why are you so down?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:arttalk,1][C:26]Art:[C:C] Why so interested? Are you hitting on #me?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Nah, just bored.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Besides, you could be my dad. I'd #never hit on you.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:arttalk,1][C:26]Art:[C:C] You'd be surprised by the amount of #girls that are into older men.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Let me rephrase it: I'd never hit on #you. Period.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:arttalk,1][C:26]Art:[C:C] Whatever, I'm married, anyway.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:arttalk,1][C:26]Art:[C:C] So you wanna know why I'm feeling #down?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] If you don't want to tell me, it's #okay.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:arttalk,1][C:26]Art:[C:C] Nah, there's no problem.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:arttalk,1][C:26]Art:[C:C] Well, you see. I found the girl I was #looking for...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:arttalk,1][C:26]Art:[C:C] ...in her last moments.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Huh... really?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:arttalk,1][C:26]Art:[C:C] I followed her tracks and finally #found her. Although to be fair, it's more #like she stopped trying to cover them.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:arttalk,1][C:26]Art:[C:C] She was just sitting in a room near #some more corpses. From what I gathered #later, seems it was some drug lab.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:arttalk,1][C:26]Art:[C:C] She passed herself off as a #prostitute, and then proceeded to #kill everyone inside.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:arttalk,1][C:26]Art:[C:C] When I found her, she was drugged to #hell and back.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:arttalk,1][C:26]Art:[C:C] According to what little I could get #out of her, she was dying.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:arttalk,1][C:26]Art:[C:C] Seems the same rejection she used to #kill her targets was also killing her too.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] You mentioned she caused a #Nanomachine Rejection of sorts, right?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] So I'm guessing the city's #nanomachines seeped into her body, causing #a reaction.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:artface,sigh][XS:arttalk,1][C:26]Art:[C:C] As a psycho-for-hire, you'd think #she'd have had the foresight to think #about that before coming into the city.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:arttalk,1][C:26]Art:[C:C] But anyway, I had a job to do, so I #delivered her letter.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:arttalk,1][C:26]Art:[C:C] ...only for her to tear it apart #without reading it.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Must've been frustrating, huh?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I mean, all that work for her to rip #it to pieces.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:arttalk,1][C:26]Art:[C:C] I thought something like that might #happen. [STOPLIP:]
[XS:arttalk,1][C:26]Art:[C:C] To be honest, at that point, I was #really just doing it for my own sense of #peace. [STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Why tear the letter, though?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:artface,][XS:arttalk,1][C:26]Art:[C:C] Apparently, the guy wasn't exactly #the best father out there.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:arttalk,1][C:26]Art:[C:C] She was born for experimental #purposes. A living guinea pig for her #father's condition.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:arttalk,1][C:26]Art:[C:C] He was literally going to use her to #test any treatment, no matter how #unorthodox.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:arttalk,1][C:26]Art:[C:C] She was experimented upon from an #early age. And when she found out what her #blood was capable of, she just... snapped.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:arttalk,1][C:26]Art:[C:C] In her own words, "I didn't have to #take shit from anyone anymore, not even my #'father'".[STOPLIP:]
[XS:arttalk,1][C:26]Art:[C:C] So she ran away, came to the city. #Became a gun for hire...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:arttalk,1][C:26]Art:[C:C] Got trapped in that bank. Then, the #rejection started to kick in...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Tough stuff.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:arttalk,1][C:26]Art:[C:C] It hit me hard, you know? I kinda saw #my own daughter in her at that moment.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:arttalk,1][C:26]Art:[C:C] The anger she bore against this old #man...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:arttalk,1][C:26]Art:[C:C] I've seen it before. Many times while #my daughter was a teen.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Really?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:arttalk,1][C:26]Art:[C:C] She... my daughter was born as a boy. #And back then, spent all her time angry.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:arttalk,1][C:26]Art:[C:C] I had a short fuse, so I lost control #with her more often than not.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:arttalk,1][C:26]Art:[C:C] I yelled at her, she yelled at me...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] ...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:artface,sigh][XS:arttalk,1][C:26]Art:[C:C] When she turned 11, she started her #transition process. Her behaviour changed #a lot.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:arttalk,1][C:26]Art:[C:C] She was calmer, friendlier... but my #relationship with her was already #fractured.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:arttalk,1][C:26]Art:[C:C] It wasn't until a couple of years ago #that she decided to give me a second #chance.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:arttalk,1][C:26]Art:[C:C] I've been doing my best to make #amends, but I still remember the anger on #her face.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:arttalk,1][C:26]Art:[C:C] And to see that girl, in her death #throes, with that same look...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:arttalk,1][C:26]Art:[C:C] ...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Maybe you shouldn't be here then.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:arttalk,1][C:26]Art:[C:C] Huh?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Maybe you should be with your #daughter, preventing that stuff from ever #happening again.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] You finished your job. Take your #lesson to heart and go spend time with her.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Not everyone gets second chances, so #don't waste it.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:artface,][XS:arttalk,1][C:26]Art:[C:C] Yeah, I'll do that. Thanks for #everything, bartender.[XS:arthide,1][STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] (Does that count as scaring a client #off? Eh...)[XS:ph,6][E:23][STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] So, any issues with the city lately? #What's the word on the street?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:arttalk,1][C:26]Art:[C:C] Shouldn't I be asking that?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:arttalk,1][C:26]Art:[C:C] There's nothing new, really.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:arttalk,1][C:26]Art:[C:C] The lynchings of White Knights #stopped, so there's that.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Really?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:arttalk,1][C:26]Art:[C:C] Something about the armor. I haven't #gotten much on that one yet.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:arttalk,1][C:26]Art:[C:C] All in all, the madness following the #attack on the bank seems to have settled #down a bit.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] That's good to hear.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Have any other details about the #attack emerged yet?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:arttalk,1][C:26]Art:[C:C] All records of whatever happened #there have been long deleted.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:arttalk,1][C:26]Art:[C:C] Security cams, system logs... #everything was wiped.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:arttalk,1][C:26]Art:[C:C] Whatever happened there, it's become #even more of a mystery now.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] (I wonder if Sei plans on #testifying.)[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] (...does anyone know if Sei went #there in the first place?)[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] (Maybe the wiping of everything #actually protects her somehow.)[STOPLIP:]
[XS:arttalk,1][C:26]Art:[C:C] Hey, bartender. You okay?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Sorry, got distracted.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:arttalk,1][C:26]Art:[C:C] There's not much to say, really.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:arttalk,1][C:26]Art:[C:C] There's the odd silly rumor here and #there.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:arttalk,1][C:26]Art:[C:C] Like the vending machines' tasers #malfunctioning and applying more strength.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:arttalk,1][C:26]Art:[C:C] Or that the writer of The Last Rain #In The World is actually living here as a #brain in a jar.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:arttalk,1][C:26]Art:[C:C] But those are the kind of rumors you #hear from crackheads.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:arttalk,1][C:26]Art:[C:C] Crackheads might hold that one last #piece of info you need, but you also hear #crap like that.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I see.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:arttalk,1][C:26]Art:[C:C] Anyway, I'm leaving. Happy New Year, #bartender.[XS:arthide,1][STOPLIP:]

[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] What can I get you?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:lexitalk,1][C:36]Lexi:[C:C] Hm... let's try the Fringe Weaver.[STOPLIP:]

[RES:][XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] A Fringe Weaver.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:lexitalk,1][C:36]Lexi:[C:C] Seems right. Thanks.[XS:ph,3][XS:mix,0][E:28][STOPLIP:]
[RES:][XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Here.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:lexitalk,1][C:36]Lexi:[C:C] Something's not right here...[XS:ph,3][XS:mix,0][E:29][STOPLIP:]
[SHOW:120,sprite_dana][SHOW:280,sprite_lexi][XS:danaface,worry][XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] Agh! Sorry, my office is a mess so I #can't let you in right now. I'll just go #buy some-...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:lexitalk,1][C:36]Lexi:[C:C] Take your time.[XS:danhide,1][STOPLIP:]
[SHOW:185,sprite_lexi][XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] This is the first time I've seen her #get excited about someone.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:lexitalk,1][C:36]Lexi:[C:C] Well, I guess it's been almost 7 or #8 years since I last saw her.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:lexitalk,1][C:36]Lexi:[C:C] She had a brief stint with me at the #Neo-San Francisco Police Department.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Huh. Another thing to add to the #oddly adventurous past of my boss.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I can't picture her as a policewoman, #though.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:lexitalk,1][C:36]Lexi:[C:C] Well, she was more of a... #collaborator.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:lexitalk,1][C:36]Lexi:[C:C] Everyone in the department #acknowledged her abilities and she helped #us from time to time.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:lexitalk,1][C:36]Lexi:[C:C] She was authorized to come with us #but couldn't act by herself.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:lexitalk,1][C:36]Lexi:[C:C] She didn't have a gun or a badge, but #she did have a radio to stay in touch.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:lexitalk,1][C:36]Lexi:[C:C] And, I'm not gonna lie, she was one #of the best backup partners I've had over #the years.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:lexitalk,1][C:36]Lexi:[C:C] She once took down a band of punks #with nothing but a loaf of bread.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] A loaf of-...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] ...yup, sounds like Boss.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:lexitalk,1][C:36]Lexi:[C:C] She requested that the next loaf #have sesame seeds. Something about it #hitting harder.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] (So her penchant for swinging bread #loaves like swords is not just some weird #habit...)[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] And how did she end up with the #police, of all places?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:lexitalk,1][C:36]Lexi:[C:C] Her old league, the Grand Slam #Fighters, was fighting against the NSFW.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] (NSFW?)[STOPLIP:]
[XS:lexitalk,1][C:36]Lexi:[C:C] I was there because I needed to ask #the owner of the league a couple of #questions.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:lexitalk,1][C:36]Lexi:[C:C] But then a fight broke out. Many #drunkards joined the fray not too long #after.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:lexitalk,1][C:36]Lexi:[C:C] I was gonna start evacuating the #place, but before I knew it, she had #already subdued the troublemakers.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:lexitalk,1][C:36]Lexi:[C:C] I asked for help with the rest of #the case. One thing led to another...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Oh.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I was afraid that she might have #become involved as an alternative to jail #time.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:lexitalk,1][C:36]Lexi:[C:C] Nah, she's not that kind of girl.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] So you came all the way here for a #visit?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:lexitalk,1][C:36]Lexi:[C:C] I'm in the middle of some #investigations, actually.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I don't think the Neo-San Francisco #police has any say on whatever happens #here.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:lexitalk,1][C:36]Lexi:[C:C] Nah, I'm not in the police anymore. #Just a simple private investigator.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] If you came all the way here on a #case, you can't be just a "simple" #private investigator.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:lexitalk,1][C:36]Lexi:[C:C] Fair enough.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:lexitalk,1][C:36]Lexi:[C:C] You wouldn't by any chance have heard #about a group called the "Swap Spiders", #would you?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] First I hear that name, sorry.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:lexitalk,1][C:36]Lexi:[C:C] Don't worry.[STOPLIP:]

[XS:danaface,][XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] I was bored. She was lonely. We gave #it a try. It didn't work. We "broke up" #after less than a week.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Huh...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] What didn't work?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:danaface,][XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] She was too uptight.[STOPLIP:]

[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Too Dana?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:lexitalk,1][C:36]Lexi:[C:C] On our first date, she got her head #stuck in a bucket. Dinner became a night #in a hardware store getting the thing off.[STOPLIP:]

[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] The relationship?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] No, I... actually, you got me #curious. Do you swing that way, Boss?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] Cuteness knows no boundaries.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Right.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Anyway, what got me thinking is that #she thinks Gil is a dog.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] She does?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Yeah, when you talk about him, she #thinks you're talking about a dog.[STOPLIP:]

[XS:anface,][XS:antalk,1][C:41]Anna:[C:C] That's such a self-centered way to #see the world.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:antalk,1][C:41]Anna:[C:C] You assume that you're crazy because #you can't accept that this world could be #weirder than you think.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:anface,happy][XS:antalk,1][C:41]Anna:[C:C] This world is amazing because of the #things you just can't explain.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:anface,][XS:antalk,1][C:41]Anna:[C:C] And just because only you experience #something doesn't mean it's a lie or that #you're crazy.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:antalk,1][C:41]Anna:[C:C] I mean, just look at ASMR.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] (No, I'm pretty sure that's what a #crazy person would say in this scenario.)[STOPLIP:]

[XS:kimtalk,1][C:22]Kim:[C:C] Pretty good, actually![STOPLIP:]
[XS:kimtalk,1][C:22]Kim:[C:C] My hair stopped falling out. My #appetite is coming back.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:kimtalk,1][C:22]Kim:[C:C] I hadn't realized just how much the #newspaper was weighing on me until I quit.
[XS:kimtalk,1][C:22]Kim:[C:C] I suddenly stopped feeling defeated. #I actually felt like I achieved a victory![STOPLIP:]
[XS:kimtalk,1][C:22]Kim:[C:C] Like... like I got a hold of my own #life.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] So nice to hear.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:kimtalk,1][C:22]Kim:[C:C] Oh yeah! I'll start bartender #training in January, too.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Huh, really?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:kimtalk,1][C:22]Kim:[C:C] Yeah! I did some research and it #sounded cool.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:kimtalk,1][C:22]Kim:[C:C] BTC gives you many benefits, so it #sounds like a good thing to do for the #time being.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:kimtalk,1][C:22]Kim:[C:C] I don't know if it's what I wanna do #for the rest of my life, but it's a good #start.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:kimtalk,1][C:22]Kim:[C:C] It'll give me time to think on the #next course of action.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] A bit of advice: don't go for BTC #housing plans unless you absolutely have #to.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] You have to sign a contract for at #least five years of service, with a cut in #pay and tips.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I was gonna go for that one but I #backed down a bit at the last minute.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:kimtalk,1][C:22]Kim:[C:C] How do you back down "a bit"?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Well, I took the chance when the BTC #found me an apartment.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] And instead of signing the BTC #contract, I just asked for a regular one.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I still have no idea how I got away #with that one.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:kimtalk,1][C:22]Kim:[C:C] I thought those apartments were built #by them or something.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Back in England, they are. They have #their own real estate companies.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Apartment complexes where they have #the means to give discounted rooms to #employees.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] But in this city, Realty Nua holds #an unspoken real estate monopoly.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] So BTC can't easily offer such #promises. [STOPLIP:]
[XS:kimtalk,1][C:22]Kim:[C:C] Oh![STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Realty Nua is a bit weird as far as #companies go.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Their name has become synonymous with #quality, a brand built around certain #expectations...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] But the truth is that Realty Nua has #done little to no work in the last ten #years or so.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:kimtalk,1][C:22]Kim:[C:C] Really?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I mean, when they started, they #managed to sell and build upon plots of #land that everyone gave up on.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] They became a big name as far as #real estate goes.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] But in reality, the company itself #has actually done less than you'd think #over the years.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Most of the time they're cashing in #on their established properties or letting #others work with them.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I believe in the last ten years or #so, they've only started around three or #four new projects.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] And they're all expansions of their #already established ones.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:kimtalk,1][C:22]Kim:[C:C] Y-You seem to know a lot about it.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Nah, I've just read a lot about it #over time, especially after hearing my #landlord ramble about them.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I think it's all par for the course #for real estate companies, really.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] But it's true that when you hear a #name so much, you expect something... I #don't know, different.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] But enough rambling on my side, you #must be thirsty.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Can I get you anything else?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:kimtalk,1][C:22]Kim:[C:C] Let's try a Sugar Rush.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Okay.[XS:ph,5][XS:mix,1][E:39][STOPLIP:]
[RES:][XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Here you go.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:kimtalk,1][C:22]Kim:[C:C] Yay![XS:ph,6][XS:mix,0][E:40][STOPLIP:]
[RES:][XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Here.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:kimtalk,1][C:22]Kim:[C:C] This isn't... oh whatever.[XS:ph,6][XS:mix,0][E:41][STOPLIP:]
[XS:kimtalk,1][C:22]Kim:[C:C] Actually, Jill, I came here today to #thank you.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Me?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:kimtalk,1][C:22]Kim:[C:C] Yeah, back when I first showed up #here, I was in a really rough spot.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:kimtalk,1][C:22]Kim:[C:C] I was shocked. I was tired. I was a #total mess.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:kimtalk,1][C:22]Kim:[C:C] I even said some really mean things, #but you had patience with me.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:kimtalk,1][C:22]Kim:[C:C] Not to mention you helped me cool #down, and your boss saved me.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:kimtalk,1][C:22]Kim:[C:C] And... I don't know, I felt like I #had to tell you all that before the year #ended.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Much appreciated, thanks.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:kimtalk,1][C:22]Kim:[C:C] But anyway, how are you doing? Last #time you were a bit... off.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I'm better now, thanks a lot.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:kimtalk,1][C:22]Kim:[C:C] Glad to hear. It was weird to see you #like that.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:kimtalk,1][C:22]Kim:[C:C] It always felt like you were putting #up a "cool bartender" act.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] It did?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:kimtalk,1][C:22]Kim:[C:C] You don't?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I don't.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:kimtalk,1][C:22]Kim:[C:C] Are you sure?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] What you saw as a "cool bartender #act" is what everyone else has described #as "being cold".[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I mean, cold and cool do mean the #same, but...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Nah, I don't try to put up that act. #Sorry to disillusion you.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I'm too much of a mess to do such a #thing.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:kimtalk,1][C:22]Kim:[C:C] Huh... [STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Disappointed?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:kimtalk,1][C:22]Kim:[C:C] Surprised, actually. What led me to #believe that you were putting on an act?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:kimtalk,1][C:22]Kim:[C:C] And more importantly, how can I make #use of it when I get assigned to a bar?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:kimtalk,1][C:22]Kim:[C:C] I must investigate further.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Good luck with that.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:kimtalk,1][C:22]Kim:[C:C] Say... let's try something bubbly now.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Alright.[XS:ph,7][XS:mix,1][E:42][STOPLIP:]

[SHOW:120,sprite_dana][SHOW:280,sprite_kim][XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] Hey Jill, I'm gonna need some ice.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Ah, Boss.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:kimtalk,1][C:22]Kim:[C:C] Boss?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] Oh, I know you.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:kimface,sad][XS:kimtalk,1][C:22]Kim:[C:C] THANK YOU! THANK YOU!![STOPLIP:]
[XS:danaface,][XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] Heeeey. Nice to see you're fine.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:kimtalk,1][C:22]Kim:[C:C] I'm more than fine! I'm alive! I'm #here![STOPLIP:]
[XS:kimtalk,1][C:22]Kim:[C:C] I avoided my biggest mistake in life #thanks to your timely intervention.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:kimtalk,1][C:22]Kim:[C:C] I-I don't know what overcame me, I #just felt like... like... like everything #was shouting.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:kimtalk,1][C:22]Kim:[C:C] I couldn't stop the shouting so I #just felt like...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:kimtalk,1][C:22]Kim:[C:C] Like...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:kimtalk,1][C:22]Kim:[C:C] THANK YOU![STOPLIP:]
[XS:danaface,][XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] Don't even mention it. I just did #what I felt was right.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] Jill? Ice please.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] ...right.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] Are you alright? Did you seek help? I #know a couple of people that could help #you.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:kimtalk,1][C:22]Kim:[C:C] Don't worry. I'm perfectly fine.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:kimtalk,1][C:22]Kim:[C:C] I've gone to a therapist a couple of #times, but he says I'm okay.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:kimtalk,1][C:22]Kim:[C:C] I just... something overcame me, but you #intervened and...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:kimtalk,1][C:22]Kim:[C:C] I... I don't know what to say.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] You already said thank you. Seeing #that you're fine is more than enough for #me.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:kimtalk,1][C:22]Kim:[C:C] *sniff* I should've come to thank you #earlier. I owed you that at least.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:danaface,][XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] Don't worry. Just go out and be #happy.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:danaface,][XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] You have a second chance, so use it #as best as you can.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:kimface,][XS:kimtalk,1][C:22]Kim:[C:C] I will![STOPLIP:]
[XS:kimtalk,1][C:22]Kim:[C:C] I'll be leaving. Happy New Year, #Jill! And thank you again.[XS:kimhide,1][STOPLIP:]

[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] So... a couple of weeks ago I read #some news about a woman saving a suicidal #girl. Catching her mid-air.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Would you know something about that, #Boss?[STOPLIP:]

[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] G'evening.[STOPLIP:]
[SHOW:185,sprite_dana][XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] Hey Jill! Let's have a New Year's #party this Saturday![STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Isn't that a bit soon?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] Why? Did someone famous get killed #at a New Year's party?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] No, I mean...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Nevermind. [STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Sure, I'm in for it.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] Great![STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] And Gil?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] He's coming too. I mean, it's not #like he has anything else to do.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Hey...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] No, I mean where is he?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] He was escorting a client of his to #the station. He should be back any second #now.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:giltalk,1][C:19]Gillian:[C:C] Back.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] See?[STOPLIP:]
[SHOW:120,sprite_gil][SHOW:280,sprite_dana][XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] So, you coming to the New Year's #party too, Gil?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:gilface,fucked][XS:giltalk,1][C:19]Gillian:[C:C] It's not like I have anything #else to do, so...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] I told you.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] ...we're depressing people.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:gilface,][XS:giltalk,1][C:19]Gillian:[C:C] Oh yeah, the kid from the other #day - Gaby, I think you called her - asked #me to give you this.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:giltalk,1][C:19]Gillian:[C:C] I believe it's a note.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] A note? Gaby? Let's see...[STOPLIP:]
[SOUND:pageturn][XS:jilltalk,1][C:43]First of all, I want to apologize for my #behaviour before.[C:C][STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:43]I was still hurt by my sister's death and #it wasn't fair to take out all the stress #on you, let alone put the blame on you.[C:C][STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:43]And so, it feels weird to ask this of you #after how I treated you, but I really want #to talk to you.[C:C][STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:43]I want to catch up, to chat for a while, #to do what you were doing with me before I #lashed out.[C:C][STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:43]I want to understand this freedom you #talked about, the fear that drove you to a #fight with my sister.[C:C][STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:43]I'll go back to the bar on the 31st. I #won't take much of your time. [C:C][STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:43]If you don't wanna see me after all #that, I'll understand.[C:C][STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:43]But please, I really want to talk to you. ##-Gaby[C:C][STOPLIP:]
[XS:danaface,][XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] Wow, that girl has a big vocabulary.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] She was always a smart one.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] ...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Hm? The "31st" is written in #different handwriting.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:gilface,surprise][XS:giltalk,1][C:19]Gillian:[C:C] Oh yeah, she asked me when would #you be here and relatively free. So I told #her about the party.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:gilface,fucked][XS:giltalk,1][C:19]Gillian:[C:C] I also assumed you'd say yes to #the party, which might not have been the #best idea, now that I think about it.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] ...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] B-Boss... I'm having second thoughts #about coming to the party.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:gilface,][XS:danaface,worry][XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] What? Why?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] B-Because I really don't want to #face Gaby again...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] *sigh* Now it's coming back to me... #what drove me to never go back and #apologize after all these years.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Fear and shame.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Shame because I know I made a #hideously stupid mistake, and it's painful #to face your mistakes.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] And fear of what they might say. [STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] With Lenore, we never broke up #formally, so I was always afraid that if #we were to meet again... [STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] ...she'd break up with me.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] ...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] ...and I don't want Gaby to tell me #that she hates me to my face.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Lenore was in the right to break up #with me and Gaby is in the right to hate #me...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] But I don't want her to. Maybe if I #never see her again, she'll never tell me #that and...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] Jill, you IDIOOOOOOOOOOOOOT!![STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] E-Eh?![STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] You're thinking backwards! Didn't #the letter say she wanted to understand #you?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] If you bail out on this, she WILL #hate you.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] Not only that, but you're getting a #new chance here![STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] Do you wanna live the rest of your #life running from another memory?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] Didn't you just say to Armitage that #you hated feeling like that?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] ...![STOPLIP:]
[XS:giltalk,1][C:19]Gillian:[C:C] Armitage?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] Titty Hacker.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:giltalk,1][C:19]Gillian:[C:C] Alma, right.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] I don't know what happened when you #fought with that girl's sister.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:danaface,][XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] But now you have a chance to make #amends![STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] And not only that, you have us #watching your back![STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] So I want you to think about this:[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] One day of fear or a lifetime filled #with regret. Which one do you pick?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Yeah.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Yeah! You're right. I hated feeling #like that. I won't run away this time![STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] Good, because I would've gone to #your apartment and dragged you outta there #if need be.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Hey, Boss? Thanks.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] That's what friends are for.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Yeah.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Anyways, let's start the day.[XS:juke,1][XS:ph,-1][E:2][STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Time to mix drinks and change lives.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] ...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] ...seriously though, it's the second #note that has stirred such feelings in #me.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:giltalk,1][C:19]Gillian:[C:C] Second one?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Two weeks ago, I got another note in #the mail. This one is from Lenore.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] Was that the envelope you took away #from me in a panic?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] ...yup.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] You haven't opened it?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] ...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] Why not open it with Gaby? You're #facing one fear, might as well face the #other.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] ...maybe.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:gilface,fucked][XS:giltalk,1][C:19]Gillian:[C:C] Don't push her, Chief.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] I'm not. I just know she's capable #of doing all that.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] I'll go secure stuff for the party. #Call me if you need anything.[XS:danhide,1][STOPLIP:]
[XS:gilface,][XS:giltalk,1][C:19]Gillian:[C:C] ...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:giltalk,1][C:19]Gillian:[C:C] Keep it up, Jill.[XS:gilhide,1][STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Thanks...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] ...[STOPLIP:]
[SHOW:185,sprite_stella][XS:stelface,happy][XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] Haaaappy holidays![STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Someone's happy.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] We held a party for the staff and #their children...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] You should've seen the faces of #those kids receiving gifts.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] Nabbing that Santa suit at the #last minute the other day was totally #worth it.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Santa dresses seem to have been #popular this year.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I heard they were sold out in most #places.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] There was this... weird shortage #of Santa suits, but luck was on my side #this year![STOPLIP:]
[XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] ...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:stelface,baka][XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] *ahem* Sorry for that... outburst.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Why? You looked so happy I felt #happy too. You shouldn't hide your #happiness.[STOPLIP:]

[XS:stelface,][XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] She should be here in a bit.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] She told me she wanted a drink #here and since I was coming here too...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:stelface,concern][XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] Sadly, I can't stay for long. I #have some errands to run.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] How has she been lately? [STOPLIP:]
[XS:stelface,][XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] She's better. Her wounds have been #healing really nicely.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] If only she stopped scratching at #her bandages so often.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] What about her eye?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:stelface,surprise][XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] EYE?![STOPLIP:]
[XS:stelface,][XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] Oh, hers. Sorry...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] *ahem* It'll take longer to heal, #but as long as it's kept clean, there #should be no problem.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:stelface,concern][XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] But to be honest, I'm more worried #about her emotional wounds.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] She doesn't show it, but she's had #depressive bouts from time to time.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] And who can blame her? Her life #changed completely.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] The job she loved no longer #exists, she was used as a disposable pawn #in the whole bank affair...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] I'm afraid it will all make her go #back to her old ways.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Old ways?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] There was a... rough spot when Sei #was a teen.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] Her mom's clinic was about to #close. Then, her biological father, who #was an asshole, showed up.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] And the teachers at her school #didn't help.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] Sei is not a slow learner by any #means, but her way of learning stuff is... #different.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] She needs equivalences to things #she knows. You need to get a bit in her #mindset.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] Once you get this, she's a fast #learner... but schools don't have that #kind of patience.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] They basically branded her a #failure. She even dropped out.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] I would've suggested a special #course somewhere else, but that would've #offended her.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] She's always been against being #labeled as "special" or "different".[STOPLIP:]
[XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] Anyway, Sei was totally different #during that period.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] ...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] *pffft*[STOPLIP:]
[XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] Foul-mouthed, short-fused...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] Always frowning; the total #opposite of how she is nowadays.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:stelface,sad][XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] From time to time, I see that old #look cross her face and it scares me.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] ...you're comparing her to her teen #self, though. People mature.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Maybe she'll show signs from time to #time. But I bet Sei knows better than to #go back to that.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:stelface,concern][XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] I hope so.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:stelface,][XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] Get me something cold and sweet, #will you?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Sure.[XS:mix,1][XS:ph,5][E:6][STOPLIP:]
[RES:][XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Here.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] Thanks.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] This is the kind of stuff Sei asks #for, you know?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] Now that you mention it...[XS:mix,0][XS:ph,6][E:7][STOPLIP:]
[RES:][XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Here.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] Hm... not cold enough.[XS:mix,0][XS:ph,6][E:8][STOPLIP:]
[RES:][XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Here.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] This... isn't sweet, Jill.[XS:mix,0][XS:ph,6][E:9][STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] You know, back when Sei reappeared, #it seems that she came here first.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] Oh yeah. She told me that.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:stelface,happy][XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] Glad she found a familiar face #after all that chaos.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Did she tell you we had a talk at #the back of the bar?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:stelface,][XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] You did?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Well, it's nothing that important, #but...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] She was devastated, you know?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] She was afraid, tired.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] It... hit me quite hard, not only #after seeing her covered in bandages, but #also after seeing her so cheerful before.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] I guess I should be thanking you #then.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] You what?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] When I met with her, she told me #you calmed her down quite a bit.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I did?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:stelface,concern][XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] I'm guessing with all that was #going on, the desire to not worry me #weighed on her. It has happened before.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:stelface,][XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] So it's good there was someone #else for her to share her stress with.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:stelface,happy][XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] Thanks.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Um... sure.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I don't think I did anything #noteworthy, but sure.[XS:ph,7][E:10][STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] So... I take it Sei's family #situation isn't exactly fine and dandy, #huh?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:stelface,concern][XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] It's a mess they've tried to fix #over time, and I'm glad to say they've #actually done it.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] Sei's mom had a... really abusive #relationship with Sei's biological father.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] Sadly, like many women in that #situation, she just tried to justify his #actions.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:stelface,][XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] But, apparently, things got nasty #when Sei's mom, Miss Emi, got pregnant.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] At that point she had... an #epiphany, one could say.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] She didn't want that guy to raise #her child. So she finally sought help.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:stelface,concern][XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] Things weren't so easy though.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] Before the authorities could take #him away, Miss Emi got a serious beating #from him.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] She still uses a cane to walk, #thanks to that.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] She moved here, Sei was born. She #started her veterinary clinic...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] So did he come back?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:stelface,][XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] He was drunk and couldn't find any #drugs, so he made it to the city.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] He caused a ruckus for a couple of #days until Sei managed to scare him off.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] How?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] She beat him to near death... #three times.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] *pfft*[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Sorry, I shouldn't laugh but...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:stelface,][XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] Oh, don't worry. I laughed too.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:stelface,happy][XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] The dramatic irony there is #delicious.[XS:ph,7][E:11][STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I've been wondering, can you really #be so calm in the lower parts of the #city?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:stelface,][XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] Hm?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I mean, the streets are not exactly #safe.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] And a Cat Boomer is sure to become a #target.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] Well, I have my security staff #with me at all times, so there's no #problem.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] Besides, this part of the city #is... comfier.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Come again?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] Sure, uptown is cleaner and maybe #more secure, but it's also too... sterile.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] Around here you can actually feel #the warmth of the people. You feel #there're people living.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] I especially like going to a busy #food stand - I feel a warmth there that #uptown doesn't have.[STOPLIP:]
[C:17]???:[C:C][XS:seitalk,1] It's also easier to talk to people.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] You finally came.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Welcome.[STOPLIP:]
[SHOW:280,sprite_seiwound][SHOW:120,sprite_stella][XS:seitalk,1][C:17]Sei:[C:C] If you try to talk to someone in the #upper part of the city, they either shrug #you off or flat-out ignore you.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:seitalk,1][C:17]Sei:[C:C] People around here are a bit wary, #but they're also more likely to talk to #you.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:seitalk,1][C:17]Sei:[C:C] Not that things aren't nice there, #though.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Can I get you something?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:seiface,happy][XS:seitalk,1][C:17]Sei:[C:C] I feel like having a Beer.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] Make that two.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:seiface,sorry][XS:seitalk,1][C:17]Sei:[C:C] But I just want one.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] I'm asking for one for me, adding #one to your order.[STOPLIP:]

[XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] They were all playing with the #toys you picked! You nailed it again #this year.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] They were all asking "Where's Sei? #Where's Sei?"[STOPLIP:]
[XS:stelface,concern][XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] Why do they call you just Sei when #they call me "Auntie Stella?"[STOPLIP:]
[XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] I don't look that old.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:seiface,happy][XS:seitalk,1][C:17]Sei:[C:C] Heheheh...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:seitalk,1][C:17]Sei:[C:C] Don't worry. They still like you.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:seiface,][XS:seitalk,1][C:17]Sei:[C:C] Sorry I had to leave, but mom worked #overtime that night and I couldn't leave #her alone.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] What happened?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:seitalk,1][C:17]Sei:[C:C] Well, there were fireworks, and some #dog thought it'd be safe to hide in a jar.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:seiface,sorry][XS:seitalk,1][C:17]Sei:[C:C] The little guy managed to get his #head and a paw inside before getting stuck.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:seitalk,1][C:17]Sei:[C:C] And it was plastic, so they couldn't #just try to break it.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] That's messy.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:seiface,][XS:seitalk,1][C:17]Sei:[C:C] She needed someone to hold the dog #while she worked.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:seitalk,1][C:17]Sei:[C:C] Poor fella was scared.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:stelface,][XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] Well, IIIIIIII'm out.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Oh yeah![STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] We'll have a New Year's party this #Saturday, if you wanna come.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:stelface,happy][XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] Sure, it's better than depressing #myself with my dad's woes about the next #fiscal year.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] I'll be here.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] Bye Jill. Bye Sei.[XS:stelhide,1][STOPLIP:]
[SHOW:185,sprite_seiwound][XS:seitalk,1][C:17]Sei:[C:C] Careful![STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Please come again.[XS:client,2][XS:ph,1][E:16][STOPLIP:]
[XS:seiface,][XS:seitalk,1][C:17]Sei:[C:C] So, how are you treating my old armor?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:stelface,][XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] I think they're treating it well. [STOPLIP:]
[XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] Cracking through it hasn't been #easy though.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] What's this about the armor?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:seitalk,1][C:17]Sei:[C:C] Stella knows of a medical researcher #that wanted to see the systems embedded #inside the White Knight armor.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:seitalk,1][C:17]Sei:[C:C] Apparently he wants to use them in #conjunction with some mods to help with #treatments and recovery.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:seitalk,1][C:17]Sei:[C:C] I can see why. That armor had some #support systems that got me out of a #pinch when I was injured.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Also, did you say "crack through"?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] The armor is... um... locked.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] As a countermeasure against the #rogue agents that caused havoc the other #day, Zaibatsu Corp deactivated them.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] It was a remote safeguard nobody #knew about, apparently.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] All systems were shut down, and #they couldn't be started manually.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Is that the thing people mentioned #about the White Knights stopping in their #tracks?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] Yup.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] Many of the trouble-makers got #caught because the system wouldn't even #let them move.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:stelface,concern][XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] Besides, if we can #reverse-engineer the whole suit, we #might...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] ...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] Hm...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Um...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] We're having a New Year's party this #Saturday. Do you wanna come?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:stelface,happy][XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] Sure. That'd be a nice change of #pace.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:stelface,][XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] Well, I gotta go.[XS:stelhide,1][STOPLIP:]
[SHOW:185,sprite_seiwound][XS:seitalk,1][C:17]Sei:[C:C] I'll stay here a bit. Be careful.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Please come again.[XS:client,2][XS:ph,1][E:17][STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] You wanna come too?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:seiface,happy][XS:seitalk,1][C:17]Sei:[C:C] I'd love to! I'll also make up for #not coming last time.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:seiface,][XS:seitalk,1][C:17]Sei:[C:C] How was the party?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Pretty nice. We played Truth or Dare.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Had some fun, broke some glasses.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Ate lots and lots of food...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] ...seriously. Looking back, the #amount of food was ridiculous compared to #the number of people who were there. [STOPLIP:]
[XS:seiface,happy][XS:seitalk,1][C:17]Sei:[C:C] Better leftovers than left hanging, #don't you think?[STOPLIP:]

[RES:][XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Stella came in quite cheery about #Sunday.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:seitalk,1][C:17]Sei:[C:C] This Sunday?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:seitalk,1][C:17]Sei:[C:C] Oh yeah![STOPLIP:]
[XS:seitalk,1][C:17]Sei:[C:C] Well, you know... her birthday is #actually the 25th.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Really?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:seitalk,1][C:17]Sei:[C:C] There's a weird story from when she #was a kid.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:seitalk,1][C:17]Sei:[C:C] She heard Mega Santa's story and #somehow she got it into her head that #by being born on the 25th...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:seitalk,1][C:17]Sei:[C:C] She was the spiritual reincarnation #of the original Santa. That made her #start giving out gifts like crazy.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:seitalk,1][C:17]Sei:[C:C] She got over it. But the gifting #stuck to her.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] "Spiritual reincarnation"?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:seitalk,1][C:17]Sei:[C:C] Well, the story says the Redmond #family destroyed Santa's spirit.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:seitalk,1][C:17]Sei:[C:C] And that Mega Santa was reborn as a #manifestation of the Christmas spirit.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:seitalk,1][C:17]Sei:[C:C] She thought she was the old Santa #spirit in a new body.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:seitalk,1][C:17]Sei:[C:C] Heh... that girl was delusional as a #kid.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Huh...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Speaking of things you did when you #were young...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Stella mentioned she's worried about #you "going back to your old ways".[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Something about a rough period where #you were angry or something.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:seiface,sorry][XS:seitalk,1][C:17]Sei:[C:C] Oh, that...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:seiface,][XS:seitalk,1][C:17]Sei:[C:C] It's sweet that she's worried.[STOPLIP:]

[XS:seiface,pain][XS:seitalk,1][C:17]Sei:[C:C] ...he gouged Stella's eye out.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] ...![STOPLIP:]
[XS:seiface,sad][XS:seitalk,1][C:17]Sei:[C:C] I tried to stop him, but he just went #and kicked me.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:seiface,pain][XS:seitalk,1][C:17]Sei:[C:C] I still remember that kick. I could #feel my ribs breaking. There was pain in #places I didn't know could feel pain.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:seiface,sad][XS:seitalk,1][C:17]Sei:[C:C] From time to time, I still relive #that day. [STOPLIP:]
[XS:seitalk,1][C:17]Sei:[C:C] The kick in my torso, Stella's #screams. It's... it's chilling.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:seitalk,1][C:17]Sei:[C:C] I briefly regained consciousness #after the kick, when I felt like I was #being lifted.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:seitalk,1][C:17]Sei:[C:C] The White Knight that attacked us was #on the floor, not moving.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:seiface,][XS:seitalk,1][C:17]Sei:[C:C] I was on another White Knight's #shoulder. He took his helmet off and put #it on an anguished Stella.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:seitalk,1][C:17]Sei:[C:C] ...I passed out, and when I came to, #I was in a hospital.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:seitalk,1][C:17]Sei:[C:C] Apparently the kick ruptured a couple #of organs and I was put on emergency care.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:seiface,happy][XS:seitalk,1][C:17]Sei:[C:C] I woke up because Stella was punching #my leg telling me to wake up.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Damn...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Just... damn.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] What made you bring this up?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:seiface,][XS:seitalk,1][C:17]Sei:[C:C] I bring this up because that guy that #was here last time I came...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:seitalk,1][C:17]Sei:[C:C] ...I think he's the one that saved us.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] (...no fucking way. Virgilio? #Really?)[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] ...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] What made you think that?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:seitalk,1][C:17]Sei:[C:C] Sure, more pounds and years, but I'm #pretty sure it's him.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:seitalk,1][C:17]Sei:[C:C] There's something about his face I #just can't dismiss.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:seitalk,1][C:17]Sei:[C:C] I'd like to see him again. Do you #know how?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Do you know the Steampunk Museum? #Ask for Virgilio there.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:seitalk,1][C:17]Sei:[C:C] Gotcha![XS:ph,6][E:24][STOPLIP:]
[XS:seiface,][XS:seitalk,1][C:17]Sei:[C:C] Hey Jill, this might seem a bit #random, but...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:seitalk,1][C:17]Sei:[C:C] Do you remember the first time I came #here?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Yeah, you're the second White Knight #I've served.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I remember. Why?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:seitalk,1][C:17]Sei:[C:C] Precisely because of that.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:seitalk,1][C:17]Sei:[C:C] I've been meaning to ask you about #that story. How was your other experience #with a White Knight?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] If I had to put it simply... the #total opposite of you.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:seitalk,1][C:17]Sei:[C:C] Oh?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] She came here as part of her work. #Looking for information on some case.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I went through the motions, offering #her a drink and all that. But she came #only for her job.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] At first I thought she was just #another private eye, but she showed me her #badge and all.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:seitalk,1][C:17]Sei:[C:C] What kind of case was it?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Hm... I wouldn't know...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] She never told me, but she asked if #I saw some people.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] She got pretty intense when I told #her I had no idea who she was talking #about.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I suggested she ask the vending #machines outside, and they told her the #suspect climbed on them.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] She got her info and she left. #Pretty professional, if a bit intimidating.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] She seemed personally invested in #the case, though. The way she lost her #cool was... suspicious.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:seitalk,1][C:17]Sei:[C:C] You seem to be pretty good at reading #people, Jill.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:seitalk,1][C:17]Sei:[C:C] It makes me kinda jealous.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Nah, I'm not good at that. It's just #a coincidence that I noticed it.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:seiface,happy][XS:seitalk,1][C:17]Sei:[C:C] But you noticed it.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:seitalk,1][C:17]Sei:[C:C] I'm not good at reading people. Even #if the cue was thrown in my face, I #wouldn't be able to see it.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I'm sure you can compensate with #another skill.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Any particular reason you asked me #about that event?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:seiface,][XS:seitalk,1][C:17]Sei:[C:C] Not really. I just found the fact #that I was the only other White Knight #you've served... weird.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:seitalk,1][C:17]Sei:[C:C] I mean... really? Just two?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Weird, I know.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I've spent most of my life with #almost no interactions with White Knights #until I met you.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:seitalk,1][C:17]Sei:[C:C] Means you've had a nice life then![STOPLIP:]
[XS:seitalk,1][C:17]Sei:[C:C] ...that sounded creepier than I #thought.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] A bit, yeah.[XS:ph,6][E:25][STOPLIP:]
[XS:seitalk,1][C:17]Sei:[C:C] Well, I'm done for today. Thanks, #Jill![XS:seihide,1][STOPLIP:]

[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] How so?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] I mean, how do you know if what #you see is an actual thing?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] How can you tell if what you see #around you is actually happening?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] What tells you everything is not #actually a fabrication?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] What tells me I'm not just a #simulation in a computer?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] And those ponderings brought you to #the bar?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] What? Oh, I'm in the bar.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] Am I?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Dorothy...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] ...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] So you're having a solipsistic #crisis of sorts?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] Solipwhat?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Solipsism. The theory that the self #is the only thing that can be known to #exist.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:doroface,think][XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] See? That's another thing right #there. That word.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] "Solipsism". What does it even #mean? Where the hell did it come from?![STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Well, Solus means alone and Ipse #means self.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] Yes, but how did it come to be?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] Do you expect me to believe that #a lot of people just randomly decided to #make noises...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] And decide "Hey, let's make this #noise mean this!"[STOPLIP:]
[XS:doroface,angry][XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] It doesn't make sense! Words #don't make sense![STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] I've been repeating words for a #long time and they've stopped making #sense! Why?![STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Calm down. That's just semantic #satiation.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] Stop making up words, honey![STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] And then there's this counter. #How can I be sure the counter is really #here?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] It is. Please stop tapping it.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] Hold on, just making sure...[STOPLIP:]

[XS:doroface,think][XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] Sorry...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] *sigh* So let's start from the #beginning. Since when did you have #this... existential crisis?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] Since earlier today, I think.[XS:ph,6][XS:mix,0][E:32][STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] I was remembering the good times I #had with mo-... with my guardian.[XS:ph,7][E:33][STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] But I don't know. It was all too #sudden.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] I was thinking about everything #that happened from a week ago until #now...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] How much fun I was having, how #much I loved everyone around me.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] And out of nowhere the thoughts #started piling up in my mind.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] What is love? What is fun?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] Are those feelings real? Is all #of that real? Am I real?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] What tells me I'm actually in a #body? What if I'm just some computer #somewhere thinking it has a body?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] What if I'm just a human girl in #a comatose dream?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] What tells ME that you're real?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:doroface,sad][XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] Eh?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] For all I know, I might just be a #figment of someone's imagination.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Or even just an AI simulation in #some computer that thinks it's a human.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] ...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I've been there, Dorothy.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] That... existential doubt and #crisis. That uncertainty about whether or #not things are real.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] It was a couple of months only but...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I remember having panic attacks and #scratching my arm to *feel* something.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] But the panic attack gave me a rush #of adrenaline, so I couldn't feel the #scratch and the fear got worse.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] What did you do to get over it?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Oddly enough... I read a book.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] "The Last Rain in the World." One of #my favorites.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] At one point I cried with the book #and I realized...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I was crying over "fake" things. A #story and its characters.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I didn't care less for them because #they were fake. Why not think of "reality" #like that too?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Even if I'm a figment of someone's #imagination, I'd still care about you.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] ...that's what I told myself, at #least. It wasn't immediate, but that focus #helped me.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:doroface,][XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] Heh, I like it.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] Hey, can I take this drink?[STOPLIP:]

[XS:mariotalk,1][C:34]Mario:[C:C] I spend all of my free time in the #motor district, actually. Why?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Is it true what they say about all #the illegal races going on there?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:mariotalk,1][C:34]Mario:[C:C] You're not a cop, are you?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] As far as I remember, no.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:mariotalk,1][C:34]Mario:[C:C] ...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:mariotalk,1][C:34]Mario:[C:C] Well, I mean, there ARE illegal #races. But there's also a semi-legal #league going on there.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Semi-legal?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:mariotalk,1][C:34]Mario:[C:C] The authorities acknowledge that #there's races going on.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:mariotalk,1][C:34]Mario:[C:C] They don't know what goes on in #them, however.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:mariotalk,1][C:34]Mario:[C:C] Modified engines, casualties, #substance abuse...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:mariotalk,1][C:34]Mario:[C:C] The illegal ones end up being safer #in the end.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Huh...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Have you heard about a biker called #Christine Love?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:marioface,smile][XS:mariotalk,1][C:34]Mario:[C:C] Ms. Love, of course. Everyone knows #who she is. What about her?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Is her gang as dangerous as they say?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:marioface,nothet][XS:mariotalk,1][C:34]Mario:[C:C] I don't know. Nobody knows.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Excuse me?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:mariotalk,1][C:34]Mario:[C:C] They look intimidating enough, but #truth is that nobody has faced them #directly.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:marioface,][XS:mariotalk,1][C:34]Mario:[C:C] Moreover, nobody wants to be the #one that got beaten to a pulp if they turn #out to be what they seem.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:mariotalk,1][C:34]Mario:[C:C] So her gang is just... there. #Menacingly doing their own thing. Not #bothering anyone.[STOPLIP:]

[XS:marioface,][XS:mariotalk,1][C:34]Mario:[C:C] This will sound weird but... do you #believe in replibots?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Replibots?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:giltalk,1][C:19]Gillian:[C:C] There's the belief that some #Lilim out there are designed to perfectly #replicate a particular human.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:giltalk,1][C:19]Gillian:[C:C] That someone or something #replaces those humans with such Lilim.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:giltalk,1][C:19]Gillian:[C:C] Thus they call them Replibots.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] You know a lot about this.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:giltalk,1][C:19]Gillian:[C:C] I don't, it's in most magazines #nowadays.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Well, it's the first time I've heard #of it.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] What about it?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:mariotalk,1][C:34]Mario:[C:C] On my way here, I almost ran over #my neighbor. He just showed up in the #middle of the street.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:marioface,surprise][XS:mariotalk,1][C:34]Mario:[C:C] And I say almost because he moved #really quickly out of the way.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:mariotalk,1][C:34]Mario:[C:C] Then I went to deliver a package #and somehow, my neighbor was there! Almost #immediately after the whole thing.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:mariotalk,1][C:34]Mario:[C:C] And he was there the whole time![STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Maybe it was someone that looked #like him?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:mariotalk,1][C:34]Mario:[C:C] He had the same looks, clothes, and #mannerisms.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:mariotalk,1][C:34]Mario:[C:C] Trust me, you know a perfect #replica when you see one.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:mariotalk,1][C:34]Mario:[C:C] And you saw the kid Lilim here! #They could easily pass off as humans![STOPLIP:]
[XS:mariotalk,1][C:34]Mario:[C:C] There are even Lilim idol singers #nowadays whose voices can pass off as #human![STOPLIP:]
[XS:mariotalk,1][C:34]Mario:[C:C] They could be passing off as humans #under our very own noses! Replacing us #little by little![STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] At this point in time? I really #doubt it.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Lilim behavior is a bit different. #You can easily tell someone's a Lilim #because they seem...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] ...how do I put this?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] They don't care about risk and #danger as much as we do. They treat risks #with a lot more leniency. [STOPLIP:]
[XS:marioface,][XS:mariotalk,1][C:34]Mario:[C:C] Still, be careful. Keep an eye out #for uncanny doppelgangers.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:marioface,smile][XS:mariotalk,1][C:34]Mario:[C:C] I'm leaving. Thanks for everything.[XS:mariohide,1][STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Please come again.[STOPLIP:]
[SHOW:185,sprite_gil][XS:giltalk,1][C:19]Gillian:[C:C] What's your take on the replibot #thing? Do you believe in them?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Do you?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:giltalk,1][C:19]Gillian:[C:C] Not really, but I asked you first.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] When I was in high school, I had #this... irrational fear of aliens.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I was paranoid that they would come. #What would I do then?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I remember I lost lots of sleep #because of it.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:giltalk,1][C:19]Gillian:[C:C] That... doesn't answer my #question.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Let me finish.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] After many months of fear, I reached #a conclusion that might as well apply #here.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] It's useless to be afraid.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I'm but a simple woman. I wouldn't #be able to do shit against them.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] So I'd rather live without being #afraid.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] ...because the memories of not being #afraid will be my only solace when the #Nevulai Crabs invade.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Err, I mean. When the replibots come.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:giltalk,1][C:19]Gillian:[C:C] ...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:gilface,cods][XS:giltalk,1][C:19]Gillian:[C:C] ...Jill, are you still afraid of #aliens?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] What part of "it's useless to be #afraid" didn't you catch?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:giltalk,1][C:19]Gillian:[C:C] ...right.[XS:ph,7][E:46][STOPLIP:]
[XS:marioface,][XS:mariotalk,1][C:34]Mario:[C:C] Hey, you two an item?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:giltalk,1][C:19]Gillian:[C:C] AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!![STOPLIP:]

[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] No, we're not.[STOPLIP:]

[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] E-Eh?![STOPLIP:]
[XS:mariotalk,1][C:34]Mario:[C:C] You work with this hunk of a man #and you don't feel the least bit tempted?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:mariotalk,1][C:34]Mario:[C:C] How can you be so calm with his #smell so close to you?![STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Ever heard the expression "his past #is a fucking weight I don't wanna carry"?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Because his past is a fucking weight #I don't wanna carry.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] If he even has a past at all. I'm #having my doubts lately.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:marioface,][XS:mariotalk,1][C:34]Mario:[C:C] Are you implying he's not good game?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Oh, don't misunderstand. Gil IS good #game.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] He's not bad looking, he's a #gentleman, he's always attentive.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] But he's also distant and will take #many steps back when he feels like he's #getting close to somebody.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:mariotalk,1][C:34]Mario:[C:C] You don't have to marry him, just #push into a closet, and...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Eh... not interested.[STOPLIP:]

[XS:jamietalk,1][C:23]Jamie:[C:C] I did, actually.[XS:jamietalk,0][STOPLIP:]
[XS:intalk,1][C:21]Ingram:[C:C] Figured as much. Only a handful of #people do that.[XS:intalk,0][STOPLIP:]

[XS:intalk,1][C:21]Ingram:[C:C] So, why go through the whole thing? #Rejection? Need to hide something?[XS:intalk,0][STOPLIP:]
[XS:jamietalk,1][C:23]Jamie:[C:C] The second one.[XS:jamietalk,0][STOPLIP:]
[XS:jamietalk,1][C:23]Jamie:[C:C] It's easier to remain undetected when #they have no means to track you or your #activity.[XS:jamietalk,0][STOPLIP:]

[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] How does the expunge work?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jamietalk,1][C:23]Jamie:[C:C] You lie in a pressure chamber and they #give you a special IV solution.[XS:jamietalk,0][STOPLIP:]
[XS:jamietalk,1][C:23]Jamie:[C:C] It causes Nanomachine Rejection while #giving you the antibodies needed to prevent #them from getting back in.[XS:jamietalk,0][STOPLIP:]

[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] The Roma...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] ...let's call it the Catification #procedure.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] It was not only the first successful #genetic treatment on a fetus, but also the #first way to fight Nanomachine Rejection.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Moreover, that research had a bit of #a rocky story.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Funding got cut in the middle of it, #at a critical point that could make or break #the whole thing.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Not to mention Zaibatsu Corp's record #of not addressing Nanomachine Rejection at #all.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] The rest of the research was funded by #Mackie Stengovich.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Was it Stengovich? Let's call #him Stengovich for now.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] He's a businessman whose unborn #daughter got diagnosed with early #Nanomachine Rejection.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Stengovich funded the research. And in #a desperate move, his wife offered herself #and her daughter as test subjects.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Of course, the experiment was a #success. [STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] The girl, Silvia Stengovich, didn't #die. She became the living testament of a #scientific breakthrough.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] But then, the story of how things #played out for Silvia got sensationalized #in the media and created a weird fad.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Parents made their unborn children go #through the Catification procedure, even if #they had no ailments at all.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] All because one particular girl whose #life got saved through that treatment became #a media darling for a bit.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] A whole generation of kids with those #cat-like protrusions got born.
[XS:giltalk,1][C:19]Gillian:[C:C] And their parents got called #Cat Boomers?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] A generation of parents obsessed with #those cat-like features.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] The fad quickly passed, but the term #remained in use. [STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Eventually "Cat Boomer" just started #being used for people with the protrusions #instead of their parents.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:giltalk,1][C:19]Gillian:[C:C] You keep calling them Protrusions, #why is that?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Because that's what they are.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:gilface,surprise][XS:giltalk,1][C:19]Gillian:[C:C] Eh?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] You didn't think those things on their #heads were ears, right?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Sure, they can be moved because #they're somehow connected to the facial #and ear muscles.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Thus they can move like a cat's and #react to their mood.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] But in the end, they're just appendages #with no real function.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:gilface,][XS:giltalk,1][C:19]Gillian:[C:C] Huh...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] It still surprises me a bit though, #that the biggest mutation they get after #the treatment is just that.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Those "ears" are a small miracle on #their own. People have been born with no #eyes for less intrusive procedures.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] You really thought they were functional #ears, huh?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:giltalk,1][C:19]Gillian:[C:C] Let's say I learned quite a bit #today. Thank you.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Don't worry. I feel like I should #apologize for talking so much instead.
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] And keep in mind I'm fucking up the #terms.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I don't want you saying someone got #protrusions because of a Catification #procedure.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:gilface,cods][XS:giltalk,1][C:19]Gillian:[C:C] I'll keep it in mind.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] WAIT![STOPLIP:]
[XS:gilface,surprise][XS:giltalk,1][C:19]Gillian:[C:C] What?![STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] ...yeah, the guy's name was #Stengovich.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:giltalk,1][C:19]Gillian:[C:C] Eh?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I just remembered Silvia Stengovich #was around my age, and when I was a teen, #there were some TV specials featuring her.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] And I just remembered that I had the #biggest crush on her.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] ...now that I think about it, that #crush had me VERY confused back then.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:gilface,fucked][XS:giltalk,1][C:19]Gillian:[C:C] And did you need to shout just now?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] ...sorry.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] In any case, I'm out for the day.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:giltalk,1][C:19]Gillian:[C:C] Alright. Careful out there.[XS:giltalk,0][XS:ph,8][E:53][STOPLIP:]
[XS:tomtalk,1][C:38]???:[C:C] Let's see... not here...[XS:tomtalk,0][STOPLIP:]
[XS:tomtalk,1][C:38]???:[C:C] Weird, I'd swear the tracks led here.[XS:tomtalk,0][STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Um...[STOPLIP:]
[SHOW:185,sprite_tomcat][XS:tomtalk,1][C:38]???:[C:C] Oh, I'm at a bar. Well, that's nice.[XS:tomtalk,0][STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Can I get you something?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:tomtalk,1][C:38]???:[C:C] Let's have a Brandtini.[XS:tomtalk,0][STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Sure.[XS:mix,1][XS:ph,3][E:54][STOPLIP:]
[RES:][XS:tomtalk,1][C:38]???:[C:C] This seems right.[XS:tomtalk,0][XS:mix,0][XS:ph,4][E:55][STOPLIP:]
[RES:][XS:tomtalk,1][C:38]???:[C:C] Not really what I was expecting.[XS:tomtalk,0][XS:mix,0][XS:ph,4][E:56][STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] And what brought you here? Um...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:tomtalk,1][C:38]???:[C:C] I think it's better if my name remains #a mystery for now.[XS:tomtalk,0][STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] (The registry says... error? Huh...)[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] (The money's there, but the registry #can't display the name properly...)[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Still, what brought you here... um... #mysterious person?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:tomtalk,1][C:38]???:[C:C] I'm following Alice_Rabbit's trail.[XS:tomtalk,0][STOPLIP:]
[XS:tomtalk,1][C:38]???:[C:C] I wanna know how deep the hole goes.[XS:tomtalk,0][STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] "Trail"?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:tomtalk,1][C:38]???:[C:C] The massive leak of White Knights' #insider info from two weeks ago made it #to global news.[XS:tomtalk,0][STOPLIP:]
[XS:tomtalk,1][C:38]???:[C:C] Curiosity got the best of me, so I #started seeking the trail of the #transmission.[XS:tomtalk,0][STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Do you work for someone, then?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:tomtalk,1][C:38]???:[C:C] No, you could say it's for fun.[XS:tomtalk,0][STOPLIP:]
[XS:tomtalk,1][C:38]???:[C:C] Alice_Rabbit is quite the urban legend #and I wanted to study it.[XS:tomtalk,0][STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I see.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Hey, would you say Alice_Rabbit is a #person or a group?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:tomtalk,1][C:38]???:[C:C] Excuse me?[XS:tomtalk,0][STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Well, there're people who say that it #might as well be a group instead of just a #person.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:tomtalk,1][C:38]???:[C:C] If it can be just a group, it can also #be just a symbol.[XS:tomtalk,0][STOPLIP:]
[XS:tomtalk,1][C:38]???:[C:C] Everyone using the Alice_Rabbit moniker #could be doing so as a way of staying #anonymous while projecting clear intent. [XS:tomtalk,0][STOPLIP:]
[XS:tomtalk,1][C:38]???:[C:C] I doubt it, though.[XS:tomtalk,0][STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Why?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:tomtalk,1][C:38]???:[C:C] Alice_Rabbit's actions are too #consistent.[XS:tomtalk,0][STOPLIP:]
[XS:tomtalk,1][C:38]???:[C:C] It can't be a group. And if it's a #group, it's most likely coordinated by #just one person.[XS:tomtalk,0][STOPLIP:]
[XS:tomtalk,1][C:38]???:[C:C] Everything seems to fit an agenda, the #attacks are too consistent, and use similar #methods.[XS:tomtalk,0][STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Really?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:tomtalk,1][C:38]???:[C:C] I guess it can be hard for most #people to notice, beyond the consistent #usage of the same bunny avatar.[XS:tomtalk,0][STOPLIP:]
[XS:tomtalk,1][C:38]???:[C:C] But the way the attacks are executed is #always in the same vein.[XS:tomtalk,0][STOPLIP:]
[XS:tomtalk,1][C:38]???:[C:C] Not that it makes it easier to track, #actually. Its tracks only get dimmer and #dimmer with each attack.[XS:tomtalk,0][STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] And so you came to check on what #might be left behind from the last #hacking job?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:tomtalk,1][C:38]???:[C:C] A pilgrimage of sorts, if you will.[XS:tomtalk,0][STOPLIP:]
[XS:tomtalk,1][C:38]???:[C:C] Say, would you mind giving me a Zen #Star?[XS:tomtalk,0][STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Sure.[XS:mix,1][XS:ph,5][E:57][STOPLIP:]
[RES:][XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Here.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:tomtalk,1][C:38]???:[C:C] Ah, as nasty as I remember.[XS:tomtalk,0][XS:mix,0][XS:ph,6][E:58][STOPLIP:]
[RES:][XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Here.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:tomtalk,1][C:38]???:[C:C] This isn't Zen at all.[XS:tomtalk,0][XS:mix,0][XS:ph,6][E:59][STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] So, what have you found? Can you share?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:tomtalk,1][C:38]???:[C:C] Sure. Why the hell not? I'm in a good #mood.[XS:tomtalk,0][STOPLIP:]
[XS:tomtalk,1][C:38]???:[C:C] Well, whoever Alice_Rabbit is, or... #are, they spent a lot of time planting #"seeds" all over the city.[XS:tomtalk,0][STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] "Seeds"?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:tomtalk,1][C:38]???:[C:C] There's traces of the video being #streamed from up to 23 different locations.[XS:tomtalk,0][STOPLIP:]
[XS:tomtalk,1][C:38]???:[C:C] All of them routers of different brands #that blew up after the transmission.[XS:tomtalk,0][STOPLIP:]
[XS:tomtalk,1][C:38]???:[C:C] Every one of them using different ISPs, #some even using internet providers from #outside the city.[XS:tomtalk,0][STOPLIP:]
[XS:tomtalk,1][C:38]???:[C:C] There's even traces of programs that #hacked into devices...[XS:tomtalk,0][STOPLIP:]
[XS:tomtalk,1][C:38]???:[C:C] Giving it the means to access a network #for as long as the broadcast lasted.[XS:tomtalk,0][STOPLIP:]
[XS:tomtalk,1][C:38]???:[C:C] Apparently, Alice_Rabbit also accessed #devices early to make sure they'd be turned #on at the right time.[XS:tomtalk,0][STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Well, the only thing without the #transmission was my old CRT, so yeah.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:tomtalk,1][C:38]???:[C:C] Quite the craftsmanship, let me tell #you.[XS:tomtalk,0][STOPLIP:]
[XS:tomtalk,1][C:38]???:[C:C] Left no trace whatsoever of where #anything came from.[XS:tomtalk,0][STOPLIP:]
[XS:tomtalk,1][C:38]???:[C:C] Even if you look at the metadata in the #leaked files left on all devices after #the transmission ended, there's nothing.[XS:tomtalk,0][STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Perfect crime, then?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:tomtalk,1][C:38]???:[C:C] Not perfect. Compared to other attacks, #like the first leaks that started riots #around here, this one is... sloppy.[XS:tomtalk,0][STOPLIP:]
[XS:tomtalk,1][C:38]???:[C:C] More specifically, the means of #destroying evidence wasn't as effective #as other occasions.[XS:tomtalk,0][STOPLIP:]
[XS:tomtalk,1][C:38]???:[C:C] But thanks to the commotion at the #bank, any attempts to investigate further #were curbed by the madness that followed.[XS:tomtalk,0][STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I see.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:tomtalk,1][C:38]???:[C:C] Well, I must keep moving.[XS:tomtalk,0][STOPLIP:]
[XS:tomtalk,1][C:38]???:[C:C] Oh, yeah.[XS:tomtalk,0][STOPLIP:]
[XS:tomtalk,1][C:38]TOMCAT:[C:C] Name's TOMCAT by the way.[XS:tomtalk,0][XS:tomhide,1][STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Nice meeting you.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] (Huh, the registry cleared up too.)[XS:ph,7][E:60][STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Well, I guess that's it for today.[STOPLIP:]
[SHOW:185,sprite_gil][XS:giltalk,1][C:19]Gillian:[C:C] You sure you're fine?[XS:giltalk,0][STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I am, don't worry.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:giltalk,1][C:19]Gillian:[C:C] Alright. Careful out there.[XS:giltalk,0][XS:giltalk,0][XS:ph,8][E:61][STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] It's less chilly today...[XS:juke,1][XS:ph,-1][E:62][STOPLIP:]
[XS:intalk,1][C:21]Ingram:[C:C] So, no dogs this time around?[XS:intalk,0][STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] They're around here somewhere, but #I can't be arsed to look for them.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:intalk,1][C:21]Ingram:[C:C] So you're not a dog person.[XS:intalk,0][STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] It's not that I'm not a dog person.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I'm just... tired of dogs right now.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:intalk,1][C:21]Ingram:[C:C] You're not a dog person, then.[XS:intalk,0][STOPLIP:]
[XS:intalk,1][C:21]Ingram:[C:C] I've never met anyone who liked a #specific animal and got tired of it.[XS:intalk,0][STOPLIP:]
[XS:intalk,1][C:21]Ingram:[C:C] There's nothing wrong with not being #a dog person. I'm not one either.[XS:intalk,0][STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] (Well, fuck.)[STOPLIP:]
[XS:intalk,1][C:21]Ingram:[C:C] Think about it. Do you get tired of #your cat?[XS:intalk,0][STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] ...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:intalk,1][C:21]Ingram:[C:C] It's not about hating them, but some #people just have little tolerance for #certain animals.[XS:intalk,0][STOPLIP:]
[XS:intalk,1][C:21]Ingram:[C:C] In my experience, cat people are the #ones that didn't have pets in their #childhood.[XS:intalk,0][STOPLIP:]
[XS:intalk,1][C:21]Ingram:[C:C] Dog people, on the other hand, were #most likely raised with one.[XS:intalk,0][STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] You're pretty insightful today.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:intalk,1][C:21]Ingram:[C:C] No, I'm just messing with you.[XS:intalk,0][STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] ...[STOPLIP:]

[SHOW:185,sprite_gil][XS:giltalk,1][C:19]Gillian:[C:C] Hey.[STOPLIP:]
[SHOW:120,sprite_gil][SHOW:280,sprite_dana][XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] Okay, so... we've got almost #everything, but we're still missing a #couple of things for Saturday.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:danaface,closedsmile][XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] And so, I designate you, Gillian #Applegate, as official "Guy Who Goes To #Buy The Rest of the Stuff."[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Applegate?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:gilface,fucked][XS:giltalk,1][C:19]Gillian:[C:C] I have no idea who that is.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:giltalk,1][C:19]Gillian:[C:C] Why me?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:danaface,][XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] I could send Jill, but I wouldn't #dare send a lady by herself.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] And I could go with her, but I #believe the bar should have at least two #people in the vicinity at all times.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:gilface,][XS:giltalk,1][C:19]Gillian:[C:C] You're not gonna say anything, #Jill?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] If it means not being delivery girl, #I'm happy to fake helplessness.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:gilface,fucked][XS:giltalk,1][C:19]Gillian:[C:C] *sigh* Fine. Give me that list.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:giltalk,1][C:19]Gillian:[C:C] I'll be back... sometime.[XS:gilhide,1][STOPLIP:]
[SHOW:185,sprite_dana][XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Something tells me you're planning #something, Boss.[STOPLIP:]

[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Call it... a gut feeling.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:danaface,][XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] Did you know Gil has a crush?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] He... what?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] A client of his. A girl that owns a #bazaar.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] She's been coming on to him for ages #and he's only just started opening up.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:danaface,worry][XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] But he's taking steps backward and #I'm not gonna let him![STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] He's opening up, for fuck's sake.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] And so the errands will take him to #the bazaar, I take it.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:danaface,][XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] That's right![STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] ...huh.[STOPLIP:]

[XS:dtalk,1][C:20]Mr. Donovan:[C:C] This seems right.[XS:mix,0][XS:ph,3][E:4][STOPLIP:]
[RES:][XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Here. [STOPLIP:]
[XS:dtalk,1][C:20]Mr. Donovan:[C:C] Sure, good enough.[XS:mix,0][XS:ph,3][E:5][STOPLIP:]
[RES:][XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Here. [STOPLIP:]
[XS:dtalk,1][C:20]Mr. Donovan:[C:C] Eh, whatever.[XS:mix,0][XS:ph,3][E:6][STOPLIP:]
[XS:donface,smile][XS:dtalk,1][C:20]Mr. Donovan:[C:C] You know, kid, life after #quitting has been quite nice.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dtalk,1][C:20]Mr. Donovan:[C:C] I have enough money should I #ever retire, but I can also do what I want.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dtalk,1][C:20]Mr. Donovan:[C:C] I could even start that #hairdressing business like I've always #wanted to.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] (Should I say the newspaper is #pretty much the same even without him?)[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Hey, Mr. Donovan. This is a stray #thought, but...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Are you German by any chance?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:donface,][XS:dtalk,1][C:20]Mr. Donovan:[C:C] I wasn't born there, but I #spent most of my life in Germany, yeah.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dtalk,1][C:20]Mr. Donovan:[C:C] Did something tip you off?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Well. When you came here a couple of #weeks ago you mentioned that you do #certain stuff while drunk.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Speaking badly of your investors #and... spouting racial slurs in German.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] The last one stuck with me, it #felt... too random.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dtalk,1][C:20]Mr. Donovan:[C:C] Huh, I don't remember that.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dtalk,1][C:20]Mr. Donovan:[C:C] But yeah. I spent a good #chunk of my life in Germany.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dtalk,1][C:20]Mr. Donovan:[C:C] My pop was a car salesman and #my mother an economy teacher.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Ah, I see.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] (One mystery less)[XS:ph,5][E:7][STOPLIP:]
[XS:dtalk,1][C:20]Mr. Donovan:[C:C] The paper's been a mess #lately.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dtalk,1][C:20]Mr. Donovan:[C:C] You'd think with all that's #happening, they'd stay and do more #reports.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dtalk,1][C:20]Mr. Donovan:[C:C] But they're all asking for #vacations and I can't afford to be #understaffed![STOPLIP:]
[XS:dtalk,1][C:20]Mr. Donovan:[C:C] So I had to come up with some #sort of reward for whoever produces the #most reports.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] (I see no difference in my feed, #though.)[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Mr. Donovan, I don't mean to sound #rude, but...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] You do know the infamy of The #Augmented Eye with the general public, #right?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dtalk,1][C:20]Mr. Donovan:[C:C] A shitty page that will #oversensationalize anything and report #useless things.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dtalk,1][C:20]Mr. Donovan:[C:C] Of course I know.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Then why not try to rectify that #image?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:donface,shitgrin][XS:dtalk,1][C:20]Mr. Donovan:[C:C] To put it simply: I'm being #clutched by the balls... in the #non-pleasant way.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:donface,][XS:dtalk,1][C:20]Mr. Donovan:[C:C] Zaibatsu Corp. and company #have an eye on every publication they #haven't bought yet.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dtalk,1][C:20]Mr. Donovan:[C:C] Report on them once and #they'll find something to fine you with.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dtalk,1][C:20]Mr. Donovan:[C:C] Twice and you'll find your #resources severely cut.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dtalk,1][C:20]Mr. Donovan:[C:C] Anything beyond that and the #best case scenario is that they'll buy the #damn operation to keep it quiet.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dtalk,1][C:20]Mr. Donovan:[C:C] I know there are more #newsworthy things than whatever it is the #lackeys picked out that week.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dtalk,1][C:20]Mr. Donovan:[C:C] But if I overstep, my ass is #on the line.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Huh...[XS:ph,5][E:8][STOPLIP:]
[XS:dtalk,1][C:20]Mr. Donovan:[C:C] Glad to see this hell hole is #still in one piece.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dtalk,1][C:20]Mr. Donovan:[C:C] The BTC has been going #apeshit closing bars lately.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Oh yeah, that.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dtalk,1][C:20]Mr. Donovan:[C:C] Yesterday, they closed one #that served as a key part of a drug #trafficking ring.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dtalk,1][C:20]Mr. Donovan:[C:C] And last week, they closed #three small bars that served as illegal #chicken restaurants.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Huh...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dtalk,1][C:20]Mr. Donovan:[C:C] Not to mention, there are #like a hundred people who have BTC #certificates but never use them.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dtalk,1][C:20]Mr. Donovan:[C:C] Instead, they keep those #credentials around to stop police from #raiding their homes or warehouses.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dtalk,1][C:20]Mr. Donovan:[C:C] I don't know about you, but it's #obvious to me that some restructuring will #begin at the BTC after this whole thing.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] (Man, shit ran deeper than I thought.)[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] (...and no news outlet talks about #that.)[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dtalk,1][C:20]Mr. Donovan:[C:C] Alright kid, let's try a #Moonblast now.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] ...come again?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dtalk,1][C:20]Mr. Donovan:[C:C] Hey, even I have to break the #routine from time to time.[XS:mix,1][XS:ph,6][E:9][STOPLIP:]

[RES:][XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Here.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dtalk,1][C:20]Mr. Donovan:[C:C] Sure, I'll take this.[XS:mix,0][XS:ph,7][E:11][STOPLIP:]
[RES:][XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Here.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dtalk,1][C:20]Mr. Donovan:[C:C] And wrong![XS:mix,0][XS:ph,7][E:12][STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Um... so...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] What brought you here?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dtalk,1][C:20]Mr. Donovan:[C:C] Oh, right. Didn't you see a #Lilim coming in here?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:donface,shitgrin][XS:dtalk,1][C:20]Mr. Donovan:[C:C] Blue hair, big tits.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dtalk,1][C:20]Mr. Donovan:[C:C] She's the one from the encore #concert coming up.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Not really.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:donface,][XS:dtalk,1][C:20]Mr. Donovan:[C:C] Did she jump to the roof then?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Why were you looking for her?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Did you want an interview?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dtalk,1][C:20]Mr. Donovan:[C:C] Not really. Just hitting on #her.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] ...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dtalk,1][C:20]Mr. Donovan:[C:C] Hey, I said hitting ON her, #not hitting her! Stop glaring![STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Why, though?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Are you that bored? Don't you have, #like... a family or something?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dtalk,1][C:20]Mr. Donovan:[C:C] Have you seen that girl? Hot #as tits! Also, hot ass n' tits.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dtalk,1][C:20]Mr. Donovan:[C:C] I'm suffering the weirdest #combo of being hard as fuck and curious as #shit right now.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dtalk,1][C:20]Mr. Donovan:[C:C] I want to know just how #detailed those King-Class CH1A models are. #Personally.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] And so you followed her.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dtalk,1][C:20]Mr. Donovan:[C:C] I've yet to meet a woman that #can resist the charms of Donovan D. Dawson.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] (You're in front of one. And I'm #guessing you have quite the selective #memory.)[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Like I said, don't you have a family #or something?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dtalk,1][C:20]Mr. Donovan:[C:C] A wife, but that woman cheats #on me as much as I cheat on her.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:donface,smile][XS:dtalk,1][C:20]Mr. Donovan:[C:C] In fact, I'm pretty convinced #she gets off on the thought of me cheating #on her.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] ...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:donface,][XS:dtalk,1][C:20]Mr. Donovan:[C:C] So that Lilim isn't here, #huh...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dtalk,1][C:20]Mr. Donovan:[C:C] I'll have to find a busty #enough replacement tonight or I'll explode.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] ...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dtalk,1][C:20]Mr. Donovan:[C:C] Hey, after you're done #glaring, please serve me a Piledriver.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Right.[XS:mix,1][XS:ph,8][E:13][STOPLIP:]

[XS:dtalk,1][C:20]Mr. Donovan:[C:C] What? Did I do something to #annoy you?[XS:mix,0][XS:ph,9][E:15][STOPLIP:]
[XS:dtalk,1][C:20]Mr. Donovan:[C:C] Well, seeing as she's not #here, I have no reason to stay.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dtalk,1][C:20]Mr. Donovan:[C:C] Maybe I'll find someone that #looks a bit like her...[XS:donhide,1][XS:client,2][XS:ph,1][E:16][STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] ...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] The guy left![STOPLIP:]
[SHOW:185,sprite_miki][XS:mikiface,smile][XS:mikitalk,1][C:42]*Kira* Miki:[C:C] Oh! Alright![STOPLIP:]
[XS:mikitalk,1][C:42]*Kira* Miki:[C:C] Thanks for sheltering me, #Dana. Hope your sister likes the video![STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] No, thank you![STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Seems you had a hearty talk.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:mikitalk,1][C:42]*Kira* Miki:[C:C] Your boss is such a fun #person.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:mikiface,][XS:mikitalk,1][C:42]*Kira* Miki:[C:C] Her sister is a fan of mine, #so I recorded a small video for her and #took a couple of photos.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] How nice of you.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:mikitalk,1][C:42]*Kira* Miki:[C:C] It's nothing, really, and she #did hide me, so it's the least I could do.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:mikitalk,1][C:42]*Kira* Miki:[C:C] But, well, we're here #already. Mind giving me something sweet?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Sure.[XS:mix,1][XS:ph,3][E:17][STOPLIP:]

[XS:mikitalk,1][C:42]*Kira* Miki:[C:C] Thanks![XS:mix,0][XS:ph,3][E:18][STOPLIP:]
[RES:][XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Here.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:mikitalk,1][C:42]*Kira* Miki:[C:C] Are you okay, Jill?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Hm? Yeah.[XS:mix,0][XS:ph,3][E:19][STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] So, do you know why Donovan was #following you?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:mikitalk,1][C:42]*Kira* Miki:[C:C] I don't, but I wasn't in the #mood to deal with him.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:mikitalk,1][C:42]*Kira* Miki:[C:C] His questions were a bit over #the line last time, too.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:mikitalk,1][C:42]*Kira* Miki:[C:C] Not the worst I've dealt #with, but I just didn't want to humor him.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I see.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Seems like he was just trying to #come onto you.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:mikitalk,1][C:42]*Kira* Miki:[C:C] You don't say...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:mikiface,smile][XS:mikitalk,1][C:42]*Kira* Miki:[C:C] Well, not like he'd have a #chance anyways.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:mikitalk,1][C:42]*Kira* Miki:[C:C] I'm not into older guys and #I'm already committed to a relationship.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Figu-... wait, you are?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:mikiface,][XS:mikitalk,1][C:42]*Kira* Miki:[C:C] It's not common knowledge and #the ones that hear it try to dismiss it as #rumors, but...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:mikitalk,1][C:42]*Kira* Miki:[C:C] I've been in a relationship #with my producer for a while now.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Really?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:mikitalk,1][C:42]*Kira* Miki:[C:C] We were both single, and that #kind of stuff is bound to happen when you #spend so much time together.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:mikitalk,1][C:42]*Kira* Miki:[C:C] But it all started when he #read an entry I made in my blog about #wanting to experience love and the like.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:mikitalk,1][C:42]*Kira* Miki:[C:C] He offered to "help with #that" after he read it and I thought #"sure, why not?"[STOPLIP:]
[XS:mikiface,smile][XS:mikitalk,1][C:42]*Kira* Miki:[C:C] I already knew him well #enough, it wouldn't hurt to try![STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] How nice.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:mikitalk,1][C:42]*Kira* Miki:[C:C] He's a stick in the mud where #planning is due, but he's a sweetheart #otherwise.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I see.[XS:ph,4][E:20][STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] You know, I've met two fans of yours #lately.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:mikiface,][XS:mikitalk,1][C:42]*Kira* Miki:[C:C] Really?![STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Both of them seemed so excited #when they were talking about you. #It was amazing.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:mikiface,smile][XS:mikitalk,1][C:42]*Kira* Miki:[C:C] Heheheh...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:mikitalk,1][C:42]*Kira* Miki:[C:C] I don't like the term "fan" #too much. It strikes me as a bit... #pretentious, in my opinion.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:mikitalk,1][C:42]*Kira* Miki:[C:C] "I have many fans" doesn't #sit so well. I like "many people who like #my music" better.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:mikiface,][XS:mikitalk,1][C:42]*Kira* Miki:[C:C] "Fan" evokes an uglier and #more pretentious image for me.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:mikitalk,1][C:42]*Kira* Miki:[C:C] ...do you like what I do, #Jill? Do you like my music?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] To be honest, I haven't had much #exposure to your work, but...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] The few things I've heard are really #good.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] And, not gonna lie, having talked to #you, I feel like I would support you even #if I didn't like it.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:mikiface,smile][XS:mikitalk,1][C:42]*Kira* Miki:[C:C] So nice to hear![XS:ph,5][E:21][STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Hey, can you really walk so calmly? #These streets aren't exactly... safe.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:mikiface,][XS:mikitalk,1][C:42]*Kira* Miki:[C:C] Really? I haven't faced any #issues lately.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:mikitalk,1][C:42]*Kira* Miki:[C:C] Sure, they've tried to mug me #once or twice, but it's no big deal.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] No big deal?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:mikitalk,1][C:42]*Kira* Miki:[C:C] Every time someone tries to #mug me, somebody pops out of... somewhere #and stops it.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:mikitalk,1][C:42]*Kira* Miki:[C:C] Makes me feel like I'm always #protected.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] (Those are some hardcore stalkers.)[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] (I guess the fact that she ran away #from Donovan, even after all that, says #something.)[XS:ph,5][E:22][STOPLIP:]
[XS:mikitalk,1][C:42]*Kira* Miki:[C:C] Hey, this will sound #familiar, but do you have anything like #tea?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Let me see...[XS:mix,1][XS:ph,6][E:23][STOPLIP:]
[RES:][XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Here.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:mikitalk,1][C:42]*Kira* Miki:[C:C] Perfect![XS:mix,0][XS:ph,7][E:24][STOPLIP:]
[RES:][XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Here.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:mikitalk,1][C:42]*Kira* Miki:[C:C] Yeah, this works.[XS:mix,0][XS:ph,7][E:25][STOPLIP:]
[RES:][XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Here.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:mikitalk,1][C:42]*Kira* Miki:[C:C] Too vague of an order, huh?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Sorry.[XS:mix,0][XS:ph,7][E:26][STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Hey, you're a King-Class CH1A, right?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:mikitalk,1][C:42]*Kira* Miki:[C:C] That, I am.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] May I ask you something about your #model?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:mikitalk,1][C:42]*Kira* Miki:[C:C] Sure![STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Are there any differences between #you and a DFC-72?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:mikitalk,1][C:42]*Kira* Miki:[C:C] Hm...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:mikitalk,1][C:42]*Kira* Miki:[C:C] We both serve the same #purpose, but...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:mikitalk,1][C:42]*Kira* Miki:[C:C] DFC-72s have the port on #their heads, which makes them more #versatile.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:mikitalk,1][C:42]*Kira* Miki:[C:C] My line lacks that or the #resilience of the DT-01Ds, but we're a tad #more polished elsewhere.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:mikitalk,1][C:42]*Kira* Miki:[C:C] More specifically, our voice #emulators are more advanced and our #movements are smoother.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:mikitalk,1][C:42]*Kira* Miki:[C:C] A trade off of functionality #and power for appearance, you could say.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Ah, I see.[XS:ph,8][E:27][STOPLIP:]
[XS:mikitalk,1][C:42]*Kira* Miki:[C:C] Hey Jill, will you go to my #next concert?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I heard every ticket was sold out. #Never mind how expensive they are.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] So I guess that's a no, sorry.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:mikiface,smile][XS:mikitalk,1][C:42]*Kira* Miki:[C:C] Now you will![STOPLIP:]
[XS:mikitalk,1][C:42]*Kira* Miki:[C:C] Here![STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] E-Eh?![STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Is... Is this...?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:mikitalk,1][C:42]*Kira* Miki:[C:C] It's a ticket for my encore #concert![STOPLIP:]
[XS:mikitalk,1][C:42]*Kira* Miki:[C:C] Sorry it's not a better seat, #but I only get so many free tickets.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] N-No! I mean, this is amazing![STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I don't know if I can accept it, #though.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:mikitalk,1][C:42]*Kira* Miki:[C:C] You will. It even has a #backstage pass so we can talk afterward #and you'll tell me how it was![STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Why give it to me?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:mikitalk,1][C:42]*Kira* Miki:[C:C] I don't know, I like you.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:mikitalk,1][C:42]*Kira* Miki:[C:C] You're attentive and hear me #out. That behaviour should be rewarded #more.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Well... thanks![STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] God, it feels so weird to get a gift.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] And from a celebrity no less![STOPLIP:]
[XS:mikitalk,1][C:42]*Kira* Miki:[C:C] Don't think too much about #it. You deserve it.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:mikiface,][XS:mikitalk,1][C:42]*Kira* Miki:[C:C] Although I guess I can #understand how you feel about receiving #gifts.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:mikitalk,1][C:42]*Kira* Miki:[C:C] I usually get quite a few #from fans but it always feels so... weird.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:mikitalk,1][C:42]*Kira* Miki:[C:C] I don't like feeling as #though I got something for free.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:mikitalk,1][C:42]*Kira* Miki:[C:C] Luckily, I've thought of a #way of not feeling so bad about it.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] How?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:mikitalk,1][C:42]*Kira* Miki:[C:C] Just give it my all on stage![STOPLIP:]
[XS:mikitalk,1][C:42]*Kira* Miki:[C:C] They gave those gifts to me #after watching me perform. [STOPLIP:]
[XS:mikitalk,1][C:42]*Kira* Miki:[C:C] It's only natural for me to #do my best and give it my all as a way to #repay them.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I should... uh... give it my all #mixing drinks, then?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:mikitalk,1][C:42]*Kira* Miki:[C:C] Of course![STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I... I see.[XS:ph,9][E:28][STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] So, anything new for this concert?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:mikitalk,1][C:42]*Kira* Miki:[C:C] Hm... well, it is an encore, #so we're trying to make it the same for #those that couldn't go to the first one.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:mikitalk,1][C:42]*Kira* Miki:[C:C] But we always try to spice it #up, like maybe with a surprise song or #something.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:mikitalk,1][C:42]*Kira* Miki:[C:C] There was this one time I #sang a cover of a song by b-LINK.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:mikitalk,1][C:42]*Kira* Miki:[C:C] Of course, in return, they #sang Your Love is a Drug.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Ah.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] So you know the b-LINK girls?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:mikiface,smile][XS:mikitalk,1][C:42]*Kira* Miki:[C:C] Really nice kids. You'd be #surprised how different from their onstage #personas they are.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Really?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:mikitalk,1][C:42]*Kira* Miki:[C:C] Suzu, for example, can be #really childish at times. She also laughs #a lot... and loudly at that.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:mikitalk,1][C:42]*Kira* Miki:[C:C] Meanwhile, Aina is a party #girl through and through. [STOPLIP:]
[XS:mikitalk,1][C:42]*Kira* Miki:[C:C] If they're not on tour, she #spends her time partying like crazy.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Huh, hard to believe. I mean, their #image is that of stoic girls with little #expression.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Almost like living Victorian dolls or #something.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:mikiface,][XS:mikitalk,1][C:42]*Kira* Miki:[C:C] Well, they wanted to pop out #in the public.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:mikitalk,1][C:42]*Kira* Miki:[C:C] They once told me, "If we #want people to notice us, we have to break #the cutesy idol concept."[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] And so they took the opposite route #by becoming "cool beauties" with #melancholic songs?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:mikitalk,1][C:42]*Kira* Miki:[C:C] I wouldn't say they went the #opposite way.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:mikitalk,1][C:42]*Kira* Miki:[C:C] The opposite of cutesy idols #would be unkempt, tone-deaf girls spewing #vitriol and hate.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] True, I guess. [XS:ph,9][E:29][STOPLIP:]
[XS:mikitalk,1][C:42]*Kira* Miki:[C:C] Well, I've gotta go, but #let's have a Sparkle Star first.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Alright.[XS:mix,1][XS:ph,10][E:30][STOPLIP:]

[XS:mikiface,smile][XS:mikitalk,1][C:42]*Kira* Miki:[C:C] Will do![XS:mikihide,1][STOPLIP:]

[XS:giltalk,1][C:19]Gillian:[C:C] Um? Uh...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Boss! Gil's back, I'll take my break.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] Alright.[XS:ph,12][E:33][STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Alright, then...[STOPLIP:]
[SHOW:185,sprite_gil][XS:giltalk,1][C:19]Gillian:[C:C] ...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] ...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Gil, you're in my spot. Please.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:gilface,surprise][XS:giltalk,1][C:19]Gillian:[C:C] Oh, sorry.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Also, you're cleaning one of Boss' #chicken buckets.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] ...did Boss ask you to do that?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:gilface,][XS:giltalk,1][C:19]Gillian:[C:C] ...if I told you she did, would #you believe me?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Without a doubt.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:giltalk,1][C:19]Gillian:[C:C] Let's go with that, then.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Right...[XS:gilhide,1][STOPLIP:]
[SHOW:185,sprite_stella][XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] Greetings.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Ah, Stella. What can I get you?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] I'll go with a Bleeding Jane today.[XS:mix,1][XS:ph,2][E:34][STOPLIP:]
[RES:][XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Here you go.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] Thank you.[XS:mix,0][XS:ph,3][E:35][STOPLIP:]
[RES:][XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Here you go.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] ...right.[XS:mix,0][XS:ph,3][E:36][STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] What brought you here today? Waiting #for Sei?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] I came by myself, actually. I was #in the area and stopped to say hi.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Oh.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] It's pretty interesting, though. #When I first saw you, I doubted you'd ever #come here again.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] Well, this place is... #comfortable, I must admit.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] So quiet and secluded.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] It's also clean, really clean.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Gil is the one you can owe that to.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] The guy takes pride in how clean he #keeps things around here.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] If you ever need cleaning staff, #he's a nice pick.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] Really?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:giltalk,1][C:19]Gillian:[C:C] ...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:giltalk,1][C:19]Gillian:[C:C] Hm... hmhmhm...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] He's a bit out of it today, though.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] I see.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] Hey Jill, have you heard of the new #gold rush in the city?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Gold rush?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] Everyone is paying small fortunes to #get their hands on pieces of White Knight #suits.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I think I heard or read something about #that? But I'm having doubts, so probably #not.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] In any case, how is it a gold rush?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:stelface,concern][XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] Well, the tech behind the suits was #always safely guarded, but after the events #at the bank...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] ...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] ...sorry.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:stelface,][XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] After the events at the bank, the #suits were remotely shut down, bricking #many of them in the process.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] Many units dropped their armor #right there and fled when the lynchings #went on.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] Any White Knight still stuck in #their suit had to take the armor off #manually to run away.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] It all happened in the middle of #the lynchings, so they'd be sitting ducks #if they didn't.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] Some weren't that lucky. They got #beaten up while they weren't able to move.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] So, between the suits becoming #glorified paperweights, and many White #Knights going on the run...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] There ended up being a lot of #junk lying around.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] But the whole scientific community is #rejoicing.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] They're on a race to reverse-engineer #the suits and take as much technology as #possible from them.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] And of course, even single pieces of #the armor fetch a high price these days.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Could anyone see any profit from that #research to justify those expenses?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] It's new tech, a whole new field ripe #with patents just opened for many. So I'd #say yes.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Huh...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I mean, the BTC is literally a #conglomerate built upon patents and #trademarks, I can see how.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] There is one weird case though...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Hm?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] There's this guy named Jack. He's the #captain of a very unique Blitzkrieg Corps #unit.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Unique?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] The guy had a really small unit. Five #people, including himself.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] The aesthetics of his unit's armor #was heavily modded to the point that they #looked like a squad of Henshin Heroes.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Hen what?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:stelface,baka][XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] ...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:stelface,][XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] *ahem* They looked really gaudy.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] But it turned out that the guy #actually broke through the software and #disabled the remote switch.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] He has one of the few - if not the #only - suits of armor with the OS intact.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] To say they're among the most wanted #people would be an understandment.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] You know a lot about this.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] It's interesting, the amount of things #you hear when dealing with drunk people of #all kinds in the same place.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] It also helps to put on a front #that makes people lower their guard...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] That should sound familiar to you.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] True.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] ...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] ...wait.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] Here's a freebie. A fun fact.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] The failsafe was originally going to #involve the armor blowing up and leaving #no traces.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] But regulations and laws didn't allow #that kind of technology near civilians.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I guess even Zaibatsu Corp has its #limits, huh.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] People love to demonize Zaibatsu #Corp. because, let's face it, they're far #from innocent.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] But they're not evil overlords, #they're just... greedy. They're just a big #corporation.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] They just so happen to have control #over what tantamounts to a city-state.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:stelface,concern][XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] But corporations will naturally #resort to draconian methods.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] I've heard horror stories from people #outside the city about trying to use product #placement.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] If you so much as hold a bottle the #wrong way or get in the way of a logo, #you'll be in for lots of trouble.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] And let's not start with theme parks #or the like. Those are dystopias of their #own.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Then again, most of the "demonization" #is due to QUINCY being such a clown.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:stelface,][XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] He has no power anyways. [STOPLIP:]
[XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] He's just the front that whatever #council behind Zaibatsu Corp. chose.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] He makes a fool of himself and the #attention is taken away from whatever it is #that Zaibatsu Corp is actually doing.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] *sigh* Yeah.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] So what you were saying is that Glitch #City is basically a huge theme park?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] I've called the White Knights #"Glorified Mall Security" in the past, #so yeah.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Huh...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] ...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] ...no, seriously. Hen what?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] *ahem*[STOPLIP:]
[XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] C-Can I get a Brandtini here, please?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Sure, sure.[XS:mix,1][XS:ph,4][E:37][STOPLIP:]
[RES:][XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Here.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] Thanks.[XS:mix,0][XS:ph,5][E:38][STOPLIP:]
[RES:][XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Here.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] ...[XS:mix,0][XS:ph,5][E:39][STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] So I take it you're in a good mood #today?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] Does it show?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] A bit.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] Yeah, well...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:stelface,happy][XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] I managed to nab a couple of #tickets for the *Kira* Miki encore concert.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Nice.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Oh right, as it turns out she was #just here.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:stelface,surprise][XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] AGAIN?![STOPLIP:]
[XS:stelface,concern][XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] *ahem* Sorry.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:stelface,][XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] Again?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] Can't believe I just missed her.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I was surprised too. I was more #surprised she remembered my name, though.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] And, like last time, she was quite #the graceful client.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:stelface,happy][XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] Man, so those rumors about her #being really nice in person were actually #true? Amazing.[XS:ph,6][E:40][STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I know, she even got me a ticket for #the concert.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:stelface,surprise][XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] She WHAT?![STOPLIP:]
[XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] I had to twist some arms to get #tickets for the encore concert...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] And not only did you get them #free, the idol herself gave them to you?![STOPLIP:]
[XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] Do you have any idea how jealous I #am right now?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] It'll be interesting.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:stelface,happy][XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] You're gonna enjoy the hell out of #it. Trust me.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] This will be my first live concert #of her, but I've seen every other concert #of hers on video.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] They all have such a magical aura #to them.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] Everyone says they have to be seen #to be believed.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] You really like her music, huh?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] It makes me happy. What can I say?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] I love listening to it when I'm #feeling down.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] Hell, it even helped me when I was #worried sick about Sei at the bank.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] It made me forget all my worries, #even if for a while.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Huh, I see.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:stelface,][XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] ...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] Say, Jill, you wanna come to the #concert with us?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] "Us"?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] I invited Sei because I managed to #get two tickets. You wanna come with us #both?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I'd love to. I didn't want to go by #myself, but...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Are you okay with that? I don't #wanna be a burden.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:stelface,happy][XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] Of course! The more the merrier![XS:ph,7][E:41][STOPLIP:]
[XS:stelface,happy][XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] I mean, you always want the famous #people to be nice in real life...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] But having such backing to that #claim, to hear that she's so nice to #everyone...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] It's nice to hear, you know?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] In fact, many think that's what #made her so famous so quickly.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] How she's down to earth and #totally accessible, making her someone #everyone wants to root for.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Ah, I see.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Yeah, I mean, I guess you don't want #to feel like you're supporting crappy #people.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Although to be honest, I've never #put much thought into that one.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Hell, half the time I have no idea #who made what I use, nor do I care much.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:stelface,][XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] Being a nice person will take you #far, though.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] My daddy always insisted that #"being ruthless in the boardroom doesn't #mean being an ass".[STOPLIP:]
[XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] And he has actually managed to get #certain contracts over other more powerful #people. [STOPLIP:]
[XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] All thanks to being a nice guy #overall.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Sounds like good advice.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] But more importantly, "daddy"?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:stelface,baka][XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] ...*ahem*[XS:ph,7][E:42][STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Do you really believe me saying she #was just here that easily?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:stelface,][XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] You're not the kind to lie about #stuff like that, so sure.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Thanks, I guess.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] That said, can you go to the concert #so easily? What about security and the #like?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] My dad always has a unit keeping #an eye on me from a distance.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] And you'd be surprised at how #easily I can disguise myself with just a #different hairdo and a cap.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I see.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] I wonder if I could get in the #disabled line with Sei and her wounds...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] Although she'll probably nag me #about how she doesn't need it and we #shouldn't abuse that.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Heh.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] Hey, can you get me a classic #drink?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Sure.[XS:mix,1][XS:ph,8][E:43][STOPLIP:]

[RES:][XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Here.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] This is classic how?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] Eh, whatever.[XS:mix,0][XS:ph,9][E:45][STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I think you should know about this...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] About what?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Sei... um... told me about your eye.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] That? Oh yeah, I knew.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] You did?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] Sei told me. I'm alright. Don't #worry.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Still... that was quite the... um...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I mean, damn...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] We all have our own share of #painful stories. I might be just as #shocked hearing something from you.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:stelface,pain][XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] I've gotten over it, but every #time someone brings attention to my eye, #it... starts hurting.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] The tech in the replacement is #good enough, but remembering it hurts a #bit.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Oh...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:stelface,][XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] Still, she also told you about #that... Virgilio guy, didn't she?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] You know him?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] Virgilio Armandio didn't net any #results but after digging deeper, we found #another name.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] Timothy Mercury. Branded traitor #after killing a fellow White Knight. #Declared MIA.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] Seems like the guy knew how to #hide himself.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] What are you gonna do?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] At the very least, seek him to #thank him. It's the least I can do.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Oh.[XS:ph,10][E:46][STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Do you have many servants around the #house, Stella?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:stelface,][XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] I do, but they've been with us for #so long, they're pretty much family.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] My dad has always said that if you #earn someone's trust, they'll gleefully #work for you, and everyone wins.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] We even had a young gardener that #left to study engineering. And he actually #came back![STOPLIP:]
[XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] He still comes by every weekend to #tend the plants.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Man, that sounds nice.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] Let me know if you're ever in need #of a job, I might find you something.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Thanks for the offer.[XS:ph,10][E:47][STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] ...wait.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] Hm?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I just realized something's off with #the whole tech gold rush story.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] What would it be?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Wouldn't all that tech be patented #anyways? I get trying to crack it in #the first place, but...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] That would be true if the tech was #patented in the first place.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] It isn't?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] Zaibatsu have been so paranoid about #making the White Knights untouchable that #they never patented anything.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] A patent would be in a database #that someone could hack and retrieve #valuable info from.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] Not to mention they've been using #tech from other companies without any #authorization.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] And no patent registry in their #right mind would approve of that global #shutdown signal.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] Let alone how it immobilized #everyone still inside one of those suits.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] So the ones that were upholding the #law did so using suits that are by all #means illegal?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] The irony runs deep, wouldn't you #say?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Why do it though?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] When you have so much money, you #start thinking you can screw around with #the rules.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] All that power makes you think #you're above every law there is.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] And this city is what happens when #those with money start making the rules.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I'm curious though, have you ever #covered up any fuck ups by using money?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:stelface,concern][XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] ...I think we've all done things #we're not too proud of at some point of #our lives.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:stelface,happy][XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] Well, Jill. I gotta go. Always a #pleasure.[XS:stelhide,1][STOPLIP:]

[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Certainly.[XS:ph,2][XS:mix,1][E:49][STOPLIP:]
[RES:][XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Here.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jesstalk,1][C:37]???:[C:C] Thanks![XS:ph,3][XS:mix,0][E:50][STOPLIP:]
[RES:][XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Here.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jesstalk,1][C:37]???:[C:C] This doesn't seem right.[XS:ph,3][XS:mix,0][E:51][STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] You don't look like you're from #around here, miss...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jesstalk,1][C:37]Jess:[C:C] Call me Jess.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jesstalk,1][C:37]Jess:[C:C] I'm from Neo-San Francisco, #actually. I came here to see the Mega #Christmas I hear so much about.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I've always wondered why it's called #Neo-San Francisco.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Is it like Neo-Tijuana? Or is it #more like New Mexico?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jesstalk,1][C:37]Jess:[C:C] Wait, there's a New Mexico?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jesstalk,1][C:37]Jess:[C:C] Still, that's... a good question.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jesstalk,1][C:37]Jess:[C:C] What tipped you off that I'm not #from around here?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] The fact that you're a hybrid.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jesstalk,1][C:37]Jess:[C:C] Really? I thought Glitch City was #the "world's genetic engineering mecca".[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jesstalk,1][C:37]Jess:[C:C] Every time you hear about a #breakthrough in genetic engineering, #it most likely came from here.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] That's true, that's all true. If you #have the money.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Glitch City has some awesome #advances, but many of them are gated #behind giant walls of cash.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Like genetic modifications or #prosthetics.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jesstalk,1][C:37]Jess:[C:C] Is it really that bad?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Let's say I wanted a treatment to #change my hair color to yellow and my eyes #to amber.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Simple stuff. Two shots.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] But just for the hair, I'd need to #save minimum wage paychecks for 10 years.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Not only that, insurers still refuse #to cover genetic modifications. Even the #medical ones.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jesstalk,1][C:37]Jess:[C:C] Weird. I mean...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jesstalk,1][C:37]Jess:[C:C] Nowadays, genetic modifications are #pretty common everywhere else.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I don't understand much about it #myself.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I think the exorbitant import fees #levied by the city are a deciding factor #in the whole pricing situation.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Or maybe it has to do with how #devaluated our currency is. Or maybe #it's both those things and then some.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jesstalk,1][C:37]Jess:[C:C] I see.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Oh, but look at me rambling. Can I #get you anything else?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jesstalk,1][C:37]Jess:[C:C] Hm... let's try the Brandtini.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Sure.[XS:ph,4][XS:mix,1][E:52][STOPLIP:]
[RES:][XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Here.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jesstalk,1][C:37]Jess:[C:C] Thanks.[XS:ph,5][XS:mix,0][E:53][STOPLIP:]
[RES:][XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Here.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jesstalk,1][C:37]Jess:[C:C] Something's off on this one.[XS:ph,5][XS:mix,0][E:54][STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] It's interesting, though. hybrids #are well received around here.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] It might have something to do with #hybrids usually having lots of money.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I guess it could be an example of #the higher classes establishing beauty #standards or something.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jesstalk,1][C:37]Jess:[C:C] It will make me a more likely target #for mugging, then.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Everyone is a likely target for #mugging. You'd just stick out a bit more #than the rest.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] You'd do well to remain vigilant #anyways.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jesstalk,1][C:37]Jess:[C:C] Thanks for the advice.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Hey, mind if I ask something?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jesstalk,1][C:37]Jess:[C:C] Go ahead, no problem.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Are Cat Boomers hybrids?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jesstalk,1][C:37]Jess:[C:C] Hm...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jesstalk,1][C:37]Jess:[C:C] Nah, I don't think so.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jesstalk,1][C:37]Jess:[C:C] While there is genetic modification #going on, it's more akin to being born #with six fingers.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jesstalk,1][C:37]Jess:[C:C] The side effect of a treatment, if #you will.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Really? Because there seem to be #countries where Cat Boomers are considered #hybrids.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jesstalk,1][C:37]Jess:[C:C] True, but think about it for a #second.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jesstalk,1][C:37]Jess:[C:C] Let's say you got a treatment for a #skin condition, and the side effect was #getting scaly skin.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jesstalk,1][C:37]Jess:[C:C] There's hybrids with scales as skin, #but your skin is a side effect, the scales #might just be dead skin.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jesstalk,1][C:37]Jess:[C:C] Even if legally the scaly skin could #make you a hybrid, you're not one #necessarily.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jesstalk,1][C:37]Jess:[C:C] Even if it's a law, laws can be wrong #too.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Yeah, you're right. Sorry about #asking so many things.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jesstalk,1][C:37]Jess:[C:C] Oh, I don't mind. I guess you really #don't see many hybrids around, huh?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jesstalk,1][C:37]Jess:[C:C] Oh! Right. Could you give me #directions to the Artemis Will Mall?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Sure, let me grab a piece of paper.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Let's see...[STOPLIP:]

[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] That I am, yeah. Why?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I was wondering. Isn't wrestling #fake?[STOPLIP:]

[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Eighth grade what?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:danaface,][XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] When you get down to it, wrestling #is as real as a soap opera.[STOPLIP:]

[XS:almaface,confused][XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] ...you're not still like that, right?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Gods no, I gave up on the whole #occult stuff.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] It's just that remembering all that #stuff is...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] *BRRRRRRRRR*[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almaface,smile][XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] I don't know. I like the way you #looked.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] All dressed in black, with the rare #accessory popping out, thanks to the #colors.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] I mean, at least you had the decency #to use makeup and take care of yourself.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] ...so you have a pic.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Oh god, you have a fucking pic.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Why do you do this to me? Why do you #dig out the sins of my past?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almaface,][XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] I was bored.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Last Friday, I had to take my mind #off the whole Dayana thing so I ran a #small background check on you.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Simple stuff, just checking past #internet activity.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Please don't run background checks #like that.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almaface,sigh][XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] I just used a search engine, you #know? I didn't request documents or #anything.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] What led you to the page?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almaface,confused][XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] You do realize your main mail #account everywhere is still the one you #used back then, right?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] ...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almaface,][XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Like I said, relax.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] You were obsessed with occultism, I #wanted to kiss all the boys... [STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] ...and I kinda almost accomplished #that in middle school, which still sort of #haunts me today.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almaface,sigh][XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] *sigh* Never underestimate the #lengths old classmates will go to track #you down.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Especially if they think you're #still the girl that kissed them for fun #and they're lonely to boot.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] We all have things we're not too #proud of as adults.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] *sigh* Now I know how criminals feel #when evidence is used against them.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almaface,][XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] I have to ask, though, why the 69?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] ...it was supposed to be six-nine, #not sixty-nine. Like, in reference to both #The Lovers and The Hermit.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I was convinced it meant "Wise #Choices".[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almaface,sigh][XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Jill, there's NOBODY that would read #that as Six-Nine.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I-I was twelve at the time...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almaface,serious][XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Even at twelve, I fucking knew what #a sixty-nine was. Just how innocent were #you back then?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] ...you have no idea.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almaface,sigh][XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Well, let's sweeten up things a bit. #I'll have a Sugar Rush.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Sure.[XS:ph,4][XS:mix,1][E:62][STOPLIP:]
[RES:][XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Here.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] This is the thing.[XS:ph,5][XS:mix,0][E:63][STOPLIP:]
[RES:][XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Here.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] This is not the thing.[XS:ph,5][XS:mix,0][E:64][STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Say, Alma, speaking of the past. #What was your last long-term #relationship like?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almaface,][XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] That's sudden.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] You dug through my past, I've earned #the right to dig through yours.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almaface,sigh][XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Fine, fine...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almaface,][XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Long lasting relationships, huh...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Romantic ones, I'm guessing.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Yup.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Hm...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Well, I've had about... four #boyfriends who I'd describe as such. That #I've introduced to my family and all.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] The first one was in high school. I #broke up with him because he cheated on me.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almaface,sigh][XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] I remember the other girl trying to #pick a fight, and me just saying "keep the #fucker".[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almaface,][XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] The second one was during my #freshman year.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almaface,concern][XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] I broke up with him after he thought #it'd be funny to punch me in the arm.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] He starts with a friendly hit and #before you know it...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almaface,][XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] ...anyways.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] The other guy, I met shortly after I #dropped out.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] He was interested in marriage, but #he wanted to get married after only half a #year or so of knowing him.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almaface,sigh][XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] ...and then there's Richard.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Who?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almaface,concern][XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] I spent almost 4 years with him.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] We got along pretty well, we had #awesome chemistry, I... truly loved him.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] But as time went by, there was a #rift that started separating us.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] He just didn't like my family.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] He didn't?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Moreover, he wasn't a family person. #He distanced himself from his own and #voiced that he didn't want kids.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] There was a part of me that wanted #to believe, even if just for a little #bit, that maybe he'd change his mind.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] But as much as I loved him, that one #detail brought a growing gap between us.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] And at one point I just... had to #break up with him.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] ...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almaface,smile][XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] But I'm not here to depress you. #Bring me a Beer, will ya?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Sure.[XS:ph,6][XS:mix,1][E:65][STOPLIP:]
[RES:][XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Thanks for telling me that, by the #way.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Don't mention it.[XS:ph,7][XS:mix,0][E:66][STOPLIP:]
[RES:][XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Here.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Don't tell me the tale distressed #you.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Kinda?[XS:ph,7][XS:mix,0][E:67][STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Okay, one more question and we're #even.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almaface,smile][XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Wow, you really are embarrassed of #that blog, huh?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almaface,][XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Sure, ask away.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] At what age did you get those #implants in your boobs?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almaface,sigh][XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] ...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Jill, I love you and I know you're #saying that in jest...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almaface,serious][XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] But I've lived through so many rumors #about me getting plastic surgery that I #can't and won't take it as a joke.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] As such, and honoring our friendship, #I'll just say this...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almaface,][XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] They're real, and they're #spectacular.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almaface,serious][XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Now ask the real question before I #slap you.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I'll grant you one, and only one #chance to call me by my full name as a #compensation, then.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almaface,smile][XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] I gladly take your offer.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] It's funny that you mention slapping #because my real question was, why did you #get your hands chopped?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Heheh... chopped.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almaface,][XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Well, there's a couple of reasons.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] The first is that I spend lots of #time typing, and these replacements help #me avoid Carpal Tunnel Syndrome.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Oh.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] There's other utilities. Like how I #can interface with many devices.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] For example, there's a tiny computer #embedded in my glasses.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] If I move my index finger, it acts #like the computer's cursor.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] There's lots more, but they're small #things that don't sound that impressive #when I say it out loud.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] How did your family take the #operation?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almaface,sigh][XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] They took it well enough... except #for my mom. She freaked out for months.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] She even went to the hospital to ask #for my hands.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Don't you miss them?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almaface,concern][XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Sometimes, but just during #emotional moments. But as luck would #have it, someone else has them.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Shortly before my operation, there #was an accident on the highway.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] One of the victims was this young #lady whose right hand got completely #crushed.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] I told them to check if we were #compatible and all that.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almaface,][XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] I mean, implants are not everyone's #first choice if they can get a natural #replacement.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] A bit of cosmetic treatment and it #could pass off as her original hand with #no problem.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Last I heard we were compatible and #the family agreed to the donation.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almaface,smile][XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] I don't know what became of her, but #I hope she's fine.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] And you didn't tell your mom about #that?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almaface,confused][XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] I didn't want her pestering the poor #girl.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almaface,][XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] So, are we cool now? Are we even #now?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Are we? You were pretty pissed about #my comment regarding your boobs.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Again, I'm sorry. It sounded a lot #less rude in my head.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Yeah, don't worry about that.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almaface,smile][XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Besides, I get to call you Julianne #once.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Now you don't.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almaface,serious][XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Eh? Why?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] You just called me by my full name.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almaface,confused][XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] ...are you serious?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] One chance and only one chance, and #you just used it up.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almaface,sigh][XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Dammit![STOPLIP:]
[CHANNEL:6][SHOW:120,sprite_anna][XS:anface,happy][XS:antalk,1][C:41]Anna:[C:C] Surprise![STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] ...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Hey Alma, this might be a weird #tangent, but... do you believe in ghosts?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:anface,smug][XS:antalk,1][C:41]Anna:[C:C] Hey![STOPLIP:]
[XS:almaface,][XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Not particularly, no.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Although there was this paper I read #once that was quite interesting.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Hm?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] It proposed a scenario where #nanomachine clusters would leave the body #after death. [STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] And then acted as a collective #hivemind through residual brain waves.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] The result would basically be an #image not unlike a hologram.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Of course, the hypothesis fell #through because such nanomachine density #is imposible in a body.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Even 5% of the amount needed is #enough to make the blood too dense for #the heart.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] And it's not like brain waves are #potent enough to create those reactions.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Still an interesting read, though.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I see.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Hm...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:antalk,1][C:41]Anna:[C:C] Don't give me that look. It's not my #fault that you convinced yourself that #you're crazy.[XS:anhide,1][STOPLIP:][CHANGE:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Well, I'll leave then. See ya #tomorrow.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] See ya.[XS:almahide,1][XS:client,4][XS:ph,6][E:68][STOPLIP:]

[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] Anyways...[XS:ph,5][E:7][STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] Betty was right and that deserves a #Beer![STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] And you?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Deal:[C:C] I'm fine.[XS:ph,6][XS:mix,1][E:8][STOPLIP:]
[RES:][XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] For the occasion.[STOPLIP:]

[RES:][XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Here.[STOPLIP:]

[RES:][XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Here.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] You're not killing my mood, Jill![XS:ph,7][XS:mix,0][E:11][STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] So the girl was actually infatuated #with him?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] You should've seen her, screaming #from the top of her lungs that she liked #him.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] And him just standing there #thinking.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Deal:[C:C] ...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] Just like that![STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] In retrospect, it was a tad too #cliched for my taste. *BRRRRRRR*[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] Still, I KNEW she liked him.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] I was right! I was right![STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] He doesn't seem particularly happy.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] He never is.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettyface,grumpy][XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] ...unlike your co-worker. Holy #shit, did he fuck?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] You're making it too obvious, Gil.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:giltalk,1][C:19]Gillian:[C:C] HOW?![STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettyface,][XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] That beaming face is unmistakable. #The face of a guy that got some and #enjoyed every moment.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Back to Deal, though. Like I said, #he seems... lost in thought.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] Victories like these are few and #far between. Let me enjoy myself.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Deal:[C:C] *sigh* Can I get something #non-alcoholic here?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] That's not how you drown your #sorrows, piece o' scrap.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] I'll have a Bloom Light.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Okay.[XS:ph,8][XS:mix,1][E:12][STOPLIP:]

[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Deal:[C:C] Celebrate all you want, but I'm #freaking out here.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Deal:[C:C] I know nothing about relationships! #I have no idea what to do![STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] Well, for starters...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Deal:[C:C] What do you think, Jill?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Me?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettyface,grumpy][XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] Her?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Deal:[C:C] Betty, I've seen a few of your #relationships. Remember?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Deal:[C:C] Aside from Veronica, there's Angela, #Pamela, Sandra, Rita, Monica, Erica, Tina, #Mary, and Jessica.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Deal:[C:C] Or should I say...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Deal:[C:C] "Didn't share the bed sheets," #"Snores like a pig," "Cold feet," "Shampoo #waster," "Chocolate addict"...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Deal:[C:C] "Too religious," "Fan of the wrong #rugby team," "Teetotaler," and "Chews #with the mouth open"?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] ...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettyface,][XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] What do you think, Jill?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] That you must be quite the #heartbreaker to have so many relationships #in a short period of time.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] I mean about piece o' scrap's #situation.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] ...and thank you.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I'm not the right person for this, #um... Gil?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:giltalk,1][C:19]Gillian:[C:C] Hmhmhm... hmhmhmhm...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] He's still on fucking Cloud Nine.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] (Or is it Fucking in Cloud Nine?)[XS:ph,10][E:17][STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] What about...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:streamtalk,1][C:27]Streaming-chan:[C:C] Sneaky, sneaky...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] (I'll be damned, she actually hides #pretty well.)[XS:ph,11][E:18][STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] *sigh*[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] For starters, how do you feel about #her?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Deal:[C:C] I... don't know. I don't know her #that well.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] You could start there. [STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Ask her out sometime, get to know #her, maybe she'll change her mind, maybe #you'll change yours...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] In the end you lose nothing by...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] ...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Deal:[C:C] What?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I'm just realizing I'm giving "Love" #advice to a Lilim.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] So I don't know how well it applies #to you.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] Eh, these things are humans in all #but organs nowadays anyways.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Even if that's the case, it's #interesting that she felt that way towards #him.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] Why wouldn't she? This fella is a #good catch, if I do say so myself.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] And like I said: Humans in all but #organs.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] You've surely encountered Lilim #that you sometimes forget are not humans.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Well...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] We live in weird times but hey, #that only makes them more interesting.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] It's odd going to other cities and #not seeing the same integration of Lilim #though.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Well, Glitch City is pretty much the #cradle of social experiments involving #Lilim integration, so...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] *ahem* A-Anyway.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Just try to get to know her. You'll #find out how you feel afterwards.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Deal:[C:C] Yeah, I think I'll try that.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] (It's quite the uninspired advice if #you ask me.)[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Anything else?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] Let's commemorate the occasion with #a Piano Man and a Piano Woman![XS:ph,12][XS:mix,1][E:19][STOPLIP:]
[RES:][XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Here.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettyface,grumpy][XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] And now we reach a stalemate.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] I'd normally take the Piano Man, #but I feel there's a symbolic value in #taking the woman.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] Hm...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Deal:[C:C] Why order like that then?[XS:ph,13][XS:mix,0][E:20][STOPLIP:]
[RES:][XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Here.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] Okay then. You take the man.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Deal:[C:C] I don't want to.[STOPLIP:]

[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Deal:[C:C] I expected a witty comment.[STOPLIP:]

[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] She's gonna take you away from me![STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] You're my piece o' scrap, not hers! #You're mine! Miiiiine![STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Deal:[C:C] Betty... You don't own me.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Deal:[C:C] Besides, I can't, for the life of #me, leave you alone.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Deal:[C:C] I feel like the moment I let you out #of my sight, you'll just... crash.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] Heheh...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Deal:[C:C] That's not a laughing matter. You #need someone making sure you aren't #kicking people.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Deal:[C:C] That's not normal, you know?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Deal:[C:C] Besides, it's not like I have #something with her yet.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] You're right.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:bettytalk,1][C:24]Betty:[C:C] So you won't leave me?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dealtalk,1][C:25]Deal:[C:C] *sigh* I'd worry myself sick if I left #you to your own devices, honestly.[STOPLIP:]

[XS:doroface,][XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] Yeah, I'm just trying out stuff.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] Did you know Lilim tongues are #designed to identify food using the #chemical components?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] Our tongues were designed with #the human ones in mind.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] For example, the first flavors #that we detect are sour and bitter, just #like you guys.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] I checked my personal specs and #apparently, my sensitivity is set to #1.2235x.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] That makes me hate those flavors #because I feel them harder.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Why all that... exposition?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I mean, I'd lie if I say I wasn't #interested, but why?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:doroface,think][XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] Well, after last time, I got #curious and started checking how many of #my systems worked in detail.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:doroface,][XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] For example, the tips of my #fingers are so sensitive to vibrations, you #could make a seismograph with them.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Huh.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] And checking that, I've found that #it's all based on how humans work.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] And that got me thinking about #what you said.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] I mean, for my systems to work, #humans had to understand how they work.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] And after all those discoveries, #they're not any more or less artificial.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] Why should I be? [STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] I don't know, looking up all of #that suddenly made me feel... real.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] It was the opposite of what I #felt last time, I feel like I'm here right #now.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Glad to hear that.[STOPLIP:]

[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] To be honest, it's a bit surreal for #me.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] What?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I'm here talking to you and you're #answering like any human would, you're #even expressing happiness.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I remember when I was a kid, I #usually tried to strike conversations with #AIs.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] But after a bit, they'd just... start #looping through their built-in answers, #repeating the same things over and over.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] That always made me crash back into #reality.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] When I think back to that, having #such advanced AIs like you here right now, #it's... amazing.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I don't know, it makes my inner #child happy to see something she always #dreamt of.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] It helps when I feel particularly #cynical.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:doroface,pachi][XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] Aw... you flatter me.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Besides, I've always thought about #humans like nature's Lilim.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] The method might have been #different, but we, too, evolved from a #more simple form ages ago.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] If Lilim manage to create biological #life years from now, it will all have come #full circle.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:doroface,][XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] So what should I take from this #is...[STOPLIP:]

[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] It was a very emotional meeting. #They both said they felt like they closed #a long chapter.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] I was moved, but that's when it #set in.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] "Why was I moved?" "I never met #any of them, so where do these feelings #come from?"[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] "Why do I feel things?" "Do I #really feel them?" [STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] "What tells me someone else isn't #pressing a button to make me feel that?"[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] "What tells me I'm in my body?" #"What is 'real'?"[STOPLIP:]
[XS:doroface,wah][XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] BOOM![STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] ...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:doroface,][XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] Oh, don't worry by the way. I'm #fine.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Thank god, it's unnatural to see you #down like that...[XS:client,5][XS:ph,1][E:45][STOPLIP:]

[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] Don't you feel like talking a bit #more with Didi?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:streamtalk,1][C:27]Streaming-chan:[C:C] Didi is too much of a #prick, and Gogo is tired.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:streamtalk,1][C:27]Streaming-chan:[C:C] Besides, I wanna talk with #the bartenders.[STOPLIP:]

[XS:doroface,pachi][XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] Sure! Sounds fun![STOPLIP:]

[XS:doroface,][XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] Try the Sugar Rush.[STOPLIP:]

[RES:][XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Here you go.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:streamface,pout][XS:streamtalk,1][C:27]Streaming-chan:[C:C] Wrong order, bartender![STOPLIP:]

[XS:doroface,][XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] So, what are you doing in my #turf? Um...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Streaming-chan.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:streamface,][XS:streamtalk,1][C:27]Streaming-chan:[C:C] Yes?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] No, I mean. That's what she calls #herself.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] Man, that's a tacky name.[STOPLIP:][CHAT:w]
[XS:streamtalk,1][C:27]Streaming-chan:[C:C] Yeah, but it's my tacky #name.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:streamtalk,1][C:27]Streaming-chan:[C:C] Actually, that's not #really my name.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] What's your real name, then?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:streamface,ex][XS:streamtalk,1][C:27]Streaming-chan:[C:C] Behind Streaming-chan's #awesome mask lies the humble Nicole Chen![STOPLIP:][CHAT:yeah]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] (Humble...)[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] Why not call yourself Streaming #Chen?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:streamtalk,1][C:27]Streaming-chan:[C:C] It's funny that you #mention it.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:streamtalk,1][C:27]Streaming-chan:[C:C] You see, when I started I #called myself Nico Nico Chen.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:streamface,][XS:streamtalk,1][C:27]Streaming-chan:[C:C] I changed websites, so the #name felt a bit out of place. Thus I #became Streaming Chen.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:streamtalk,1][C:27]Streaming-chan:[C:C] Everyone nicknamed me #Streaming-chan though, so I just went #along with it.[STOPLIP:][CHAT:aw]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] Oh yeah, I get it.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] At one point I was gonna call #myself Dolores Haze.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:doroface,think][XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] But then I realized the name was #as subtle as a brick to the face.[STOPLIP:][CHAT:w]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] ...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:streamface,][XS:streamtalk,1][C:27]Streaming-chan:[C:C] Anyway. I'm here because the #last time I came, I ended up with greater #viewer numbers than usual.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:streamtalk,1][C:27]Streaming-chan:[C:C] And so, I wanted to treat my #loyal audience again![STOPLIP:]
[XS:doroface,][XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] Oooh, I see.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] Well, you came to the right #place, especially if you're looking for #some comfy fun![STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] Honey here might seem harsh, but #you just need to crack her shell.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Shut up.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:doroface,smug][XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] See? You just need to say the #right thing at the right time and she #becomes a sweetheart.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Quiet, you.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] Don't play hard to get. You know #it's true.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Hey, stream girl.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:streamtalk,1][C:27]Streaming-chan:[C:C] That's me.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I'll regret asking this, but don't #you have a sponsor?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] It's weird that it's been this long #without SOME advertisement.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:doroface,][XS:streamtalk,1][C:27]Streaming-chan:[C:C] I HAVE, but you see...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:streamtalk,1][C:27]Streaming-chan:[C:C] The contract with them #expired, so Marvin, the business guy or #whatever had to make a new one.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:streamtalk,1][C:27]Streaming-chan:[C:C] He was gonna send the #draft to his lawyer as it had a couple of #additions, but...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:streamtalk,1][C:27]Streaming-chan:[C:C] Um...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:streamtalk,1][C:27]Streaming-chan:[C:C] Let's say he got too #excited with my VR model and the contract #became... unreadable.[STOPLIP:][CHAT:boo]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] ...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] Oh, so he used the contract to...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:streamtalk,1][C:27]Streaming-chan:[C:C] Yup. He cut it into a pair #of panties and rubbed it vigorously on his #penis.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:streamface,pout][XS:streamtalk,1][C:27]Streaming-chan:[C:C] I mean, you'd expect #certain... principles to be upheld, even #in the adult VR industry.[STOPLIP:][CHAT:boo]
[XS:streamtalk,1][C:27]Streaming-chan:[C:C] I reported him and he got #fired, but now they're looking for a new #business person thing.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:streamtalk,1][C:27]Streaming-chan:[C:C] Honestly, I think the #paper cuts all over his dick are #punishment enough.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:streamtalk,1][C:27]Streaming-chan:[C:C] But I mean... why the #contract?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:streamtalk,1][C:27]Streaming-chan:[C:C] I don't mind it if he #jacked off to an image of me, but the #contract?![STOPLIP:]
[XS:streamtalk,1][C:27]Streaming-chan:[C:C] That's money that you're #soiling right there![STOPLIP:]
[XS:streaface,][XS:streamtalk,1][C:27]Streaming-chan:[C:C] I would've gone back on the #deal, were it not for the owner paying me a #visit and apologizing profusely.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:streamtalk,1][C:27]Streaming-chan:[C:C] Some people seriously...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:doroface,think][XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] Ah... dick paper cuts.[STOPLIP:][CHAT:w]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] I've done enough "crazed teacher #fantasies" to know how they can be a #problem.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I don't think you need to have #experience to understand that.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] ...that said, Gil's been grimacing #for a full minute now.[STOPLIP:][CHAT:w]
[XS:giltalk,1][C:19]Gillian:[C:C] Don't... mind me.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:streamface,][XS:streamtalk,1][C:27]Streaming-chan:[C:C] Huh...[STOPLIP:]

[XS:doroface,][XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] Did I hear lewd? Do you have any #stories?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:streamface,drunkex][XS:streamtalk,1][C:27]Streaming-chan:[C:C] Hmhmhm... this will be a #treat for non-premium users![STOPLIP:]
[XS:streamface,drunk][XS:streamtalk,1][C:27]Streaming-chan:[C:C] I once met a guy that #insisted on doing it in a jacuzzi.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:streamtalk,1][C:27]Streaming-chan:[C:C] He didn't mind being in #Premium time, so I started setting up #the cameras.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:streamtalk,1][C:27]Streaming-chan:[C:C] And man, was it a #challenge.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:streamtalk,1][C:27]Streaming-chan:[C:C] I wasn't just gonna stream #over the water. I wanted some underwater #action too![STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] What did you do with the bubbles #and all?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:streamtalk,1][C:27]Streaming-chan:[C:C] That was the least of the #problems! We just turned the jets off.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:streamtalk,1][C:27]Streaming-chan:[C:C] But not only did I have to #make a makeshift underwater cover, I also #had to keep in mind the heat![STOPLIP:]
[XS:streamtalk,1][C:27]Streaming-chan:[C:C] Heat isn't good with #cameras.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] Did you try chilling the cam a #bit and putting it in a bag with some #filling?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:streamtalk,1][C:27]Streaming-chan:[C:C] We made something more... #convoluted.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:streamtalk,1][C:27]Streaming-chan:[C:C] We took a small cooler, #opened a hole for the lens, and sealed it #with plastic.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:streamtalk,1][C:27]Streaming-chan:[C:C] I made sure things looked #good through the cam and started recording.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:streamtalk,1][C:27]Streaming-chan:[C:C] Threw in some cooling #packs, and sealed the fuck out of the #cooler.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] Did it need any weight?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:streamtalk,1][C:27]Streaming-chan:[C:C] Yup! Luckily, the guy was #into bodybuilding so we used some old #dumbbells.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:streamtalk,1][C:27]Streaming-chan:[C:C] He was also ripped as #fuck! But that's another story.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:streamtalk,1][C:27]Streaming-chan:[C:C] It was all a success! But #it's also the last time I have sex on a #jacuzzi.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:streamtalk,1][C:27]Streaming-chan:[C:C] Blood rushing, hot #water... I felt like I was dying midway #through it.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:streamface,drunkex][XS:streamtalk,1][C:27]Streaming-chan:[C:C] Thank god he decided to #resume the action out of the water midway #through it, or I would've surely died.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:doroface,][XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] At least the guy didn't burn #himself.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:streamface,drunk][XS:streamtalk,1][C:27]Streaming-chan:[C:C] What do you mean?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] Last time I had sex on a jacuzzi, #my body got so hot, the guy almost burned #his dick![STOPLIP:][CHAT:no]
[XS:doroface,think][XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] I considered investing in a #cooling system, but it's so situational #and expensive that I'll pass.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] Besides, those cooling systems #require too much maintenance.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:streamface,drunkex][XS:streamtalk,1][C:27]Streaming-chan:[C:C] Waaaaait! I think I should #leave, but... care to join me in escapades #for the rest of the night?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:doroface,][XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] Can I plug my services at the end #of the night?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:streamtalk,1][C:27]Streaming-chan:[C:C] Sure! [STOPLIP:]

[XS:streamtalk,1][C:27]Streaming-chan:[C:C] Wait, seriously?![STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] ...they left.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] A pair made in hell.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] At least they look like they're #having fun.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] (That method of filming underwater #sounded convoluted as fuck though.)[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] (But I guess it's hard to keep a #cool head when you're horny.)[XS:ph,6][E:54][STOPLIP:]
[XS:streamface,][XS:streamtalk,1][C:27]Streaming-chan:[C:C] So, what do you do, #Dorothy?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:doroface,][XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] Sex worker.[STOPLIP:][CHAT:pachi]
[XS:streamtalk,1][C:27]Streaming-chan:[C:C] Really? You wouldn't #happen to have male co-workers, do you?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:doroface,think][XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] Am I not good enough for you?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:streamtalk,1][C:27]Streaming-chan:[C:C] Getting serious? No, #sorry. Fooling around maybe.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:streamtalk,1][C:27]Streaming-chan:[C:C] Still, I wanna spice up #some premium nights, so...[STOPLIP:][CHAT:yeah]
[XS:doroface,][XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] Do you have a card? I could send #you some numbers and pics.[STOPLIP:]

[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] And here's mine! Just in case you #change your mind.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] Hey, is camgirling like that a #good job?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] Can you earn enough?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:streamface,ex][XS:streamtalk,1][C:27]Streaming-chan:[C:C] More than enough! I can #even afford an apartment in a high-end #district of Glitch City![STOPLIP:]
[XS:streamface,][XS:streamtalk,1][C:27]Streaming-chan:[C:C] It can be a challenge from #time to time though.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:streamtalk,1][C:27]Streaming-chan:[C:C] You can't just do anything #and expect people to come back![STOPLIP:][CHAT:aw]
[XS:streamtalk,1][C:27]Streaming-chan:[C:C] You need to be varied! #Keep it fresh![STOPLIP:]
[XS:streamtalk,1][C:27]Streaming-chan:[C:C] It's all worked out nicely #though. I'm one of the top streamers on my #website.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:streamface,ex][XS:streamtalk,1][C:27]Streaming-chan:[C:C] I even got this![STOPLIP:][XS:daki,1][CHAT:pachi]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] A pillow?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:streamtalk,1][C:27]Streaming-chan:[C:C] Not just a pillow, a #Dakimakura! With the website's president #on it![STOPLIP:]
[XS:streamtalk,1][C:27]Streaming-chan:[C:C] It's a trophy in honor of #all the money I've brought to the website.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:streamface,][XS:streamtalk,1][C:27]Streaming-chan:[C:C] It's even a direct line to #him! I can use it to call him for tech #support on the spot![STOPLIP:]
[XS:doroface,pachi][XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] Call him, call him![STOPLIP:]
[XS:streamtalk,1][C:27]Streaming-chan:[C:C] Let's see...[STOPLIP:]
...#...#...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:streamface,pout][XS:streamtalk,1][C:27]Streaming-chan:[C:C] It's busy. Oh well.[STOPLIP:][CHAT:boo]
[XS:streamface,][XS:streamtalk,1][C:27]Streaming-chan:[C:C] The only condition they #stipulated for this Dakimakura is that I #can't use it for... premium content.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:streamtalk,1][C:27]Streaming-chan:[C:C] Not that I would have, but #you know...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:streamtalk,1][C:27]Streaming-chan:[C:C] Boring nights, lonely #nights, everything can be a dildo if #you're brave enough...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:streamtalk,1][C:27]Streaming-chan:[C:C] That kind of stuff.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:doroface,][XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] Yeah. You tell me.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] I can show you something too, but #only if you let me promote myself at the #end of it all.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:streamtalk,1][C:27]Streaming-chan:[C:C] Sure! Go ahead![STOPLIP:]
[XS:doroface,cat][XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] Ta-chan![STOPLIP:]

[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] I can see you're no stranger to #lewd content, but... does the streaming #site allow it?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:streamface,][XS:streamtalk,1][C:27]Streaming-chan:[C:C] Well, first they gave me #the means to stream, but my website was #different from theirs.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:streamtalk,1][C:27]Streaming-chan:[C:C] Eventually, the demand for #adult content grew, so they added lots of #gates to let people get lewd.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] They created an age gate because #of you?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:streamface,ex][XS:streamtalk,1][C:27]Streaming-chan:[C:C] Yup![STOPLIP:][CHAT:no][CHAT:aaa]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] Nice![STOPLIP:]

[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] ...it was from your sister.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:gabyface,surprise][XS:gabytalk,1][C:43]Gaby:[C:C] A what?[XS:gabytalk,0][STOPLIP:]
[XS:gabytalk,1][C:43]Gaby:[C:C] My sister sent you a letter? That's #the first I've heard of it.[XS:gabytalk,0][STOPLIP:]
[XS:gabytalk,1][C:43]Gaby:[C:C] What did it say?[XS:gabytalk,0][STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I don't know, I never opened it.[STOPLIP:]

[XS:gabytalk,1][C:43]Gaby:[C:C] Huh?[XS:gabytalk,0][STOPLIP:]

[C:13]Sorry.[C:C][STOPLIP:]

[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] ...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:gabyface,surprise][XS:gabytalk,1][C:43]Gaby:[C:C] Just... Just that?[XS:gabytalk,0][STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Yup.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:gabytalk,1][C:43]Gaby:[C:C] Isn't there anything else in the #letter? Maybe on the back?[XS:gabytalk,0][STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] *sigh* This is just like your sister.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I spent days worried about this letter, #not wanting to open it for fear of what it #might contain.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I lost sleep and appetite thinking #about it.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] And after all those worries, after all #those problems... [STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] After all these years not talking to #her, she sends me a letter, a fucking #letter of all things.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] And she just says "Sorry"?![STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Sorry for what?! For our fight? For #not talking all these years?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] ...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Agh! Now I'm fucking pissed.[STOPLIP:]

[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] ...are you laughing?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:gabytalk,1][C:43]Gaby:[C:C] Heheheheh... Sorry, I just... heheh... #I remembered all the times my sis provoked #you that way.[XS:gabytalk,0][STOPLIP:]
[XS:gabytalk,1][C:43]Gaby:[C:C] Like that time where she gave you #chocolates labeled 1, 2 and 4 during #Valentine's Day.[XS:gabytalk,0][STOPLIP:]
[XS:gabytalk,1][C:43]Gaby:[C:C] And you were pissed about the lack of #a 3.[XS:gabytalk,0][STOPLIP:]
[XS:gabytalk,1][C:43]Gaby:[C:C] Or that time when you left an unopened #Beer bottle on the table, she sneakily #opened it and took a sip.[XS:gabytalk,0][STOPLIP:]
[XS:gabytalk,1][C:43]Gaby:[C:C] She didn't tell you she did it and you #were confused all day long.[XS:gabytalk,0][STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] She always bragged she knew me like the #back of her hand.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] ...if the letter was supposed to piss #me off like that, I guess she had all the #rights to brag.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:gabyface,shy][XS:gabytalk,1][C:43]Gaby:[C:C] Maybe she was being sincere, though.[XS:gabytalk,0][STOPLIP:]
[XS:gabytalk,1][C:43]Gaby:[C:C] She did express to me that she was #sorry on more than one occasion.[XS:gabytalk,0][STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] She did, huh?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] ...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] You told me she died from... Localized #Nanomachine Rejection, right?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:gabyface,][XS:gabytalk,1][C:43]Gaby:[C:C] In her heart, yeah.[XS:gabytalk,0][STOPLIP:]
[XS:gabytalk,1][C:43]Gaby:[C:C] Instead of the massive rejection that #always makes the news, her case was more... #focused. [XS:gabytalk,0][STOPLIP:]
[XS:gabytalk,1][C:43]Gaby:[C:C] They usually amputate or replace the #part and call it a day.[XS:gabytalk,0][STOPLIP:]
[XS:gabytalk,1][C:43]Gaby:[C:C] But organs are different. The condition #made her susceptible to transplant #rejections.[XS:gabytalk,0][STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Not to mention artificial hearts and #genetic treatments were out of the question.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:gabytalk,1][C:43]Gaby:[C:C] Yup.[XS:gabytalk,0][STOPLIP:]
[XS:gabyface,shy][XS:gabytalk,1][C:43]Gaby:[C:C] Thing is, apparently, she suffered that #since she was 18, but kept it a secret from #everyone.[XS:gabytalk,0][STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Why?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:gabyface,angry][XS:gabytalk,1][C:43]Gaby:[C:C] Hell if I know. I was angry to learn #that she hid it.[XS:gabytalk,0][STOPLIP:]
[XS:gabytalk,1][C:43]Gaby:[C:C] Why didn't she tell me?! Was it to #avoid worrying me? Was she ashamed? What #was it?![XS:gabytalk,0][STOPLIP:]
[XS:gabytalk,1][C:43]Gaby:[C:C] ...[XS:gabytalk,0][STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] ...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Wait, how did she live so normally #then?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:gabyface,][XS:gabytalk,1][C:43]Gaby:[C:C] She had to use a serum. Shots near her #heart every three days.[XS:gabytalk,0][STOPLIP:]
[XS:gabyface,shy][XS:gabytalk,1][C:43]Gaby:[C:C] Apparently, the serum burns like hell. #The shot even left her a nasty mark where #she had to apply them.[XS:gabytalk,0][STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] (So the thing near her left breast #wasn't a birth mark?)[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] And the rejection was what ended up #killing her?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:gabyface,][XS:gabytalk,1][C:43]Gaby:[C:C] The Nanomachine Rejection was what #ended up killing her, but they couldn't #find what made her so vulnerable.[XS:gabytalk,0][STOPLIP:]
[XS:gabytalk,1][C:43]Gaby:[C:C] Doctor said she might have missed a #shot, or the shots made her other defenses #grow weaker.[XS:gabytalk,0][STOPLIP:]
[XS:gabytalk,1][C:43]Gaby:[C:C] The condition could've just gone nuts #outta nowhere, or maybe it was blood #pressure.[XS:gabytalk,0][STOPLIP:]
[XS:gabytalk,1][C:43]Gaby:[C:C] Maybe it was a regular heart attack #and the rejection acted afterwards, they #don't know.[XS:gabytalk,0][STOPLIP:]
[XS:gabyface,angry][XS:gabytalk,1][C:43]Gaby:[C:C] She kept it a secret from everyone, #so nobody knows![XS:gabytalk,0][STOPLIP:]
[XS:gabytalk,1][C:43]Gaby:[C:C] Maybe if she had told me about it, I #could've helped her, maybe she'd still be #alive.[XS:gabytalk,0][STOPLIP:]
[XS:gabyface,sad][XS:gabytalk,1][C:43]Gaby:[C:C] Maybe she wouldn't have faced it alone #instead of just dying in her sleep.[XS:gabytalk,0][STOPLIP:]
[XS:gabytalk,1][C:43]Gaby:[C:C] ...[XS:gabytalk,0][STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] ...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Thinking about what ifs won't bring #her back.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:gabyface,surprise][XS:gabytalk,1][C:43]Gaby:[C:C] Eh?[XS:gabytalk,0][STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I spent so much time hammering myself #with what ifs after you told me she died.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] What if I waited to cool down a bit #back then? What if I just swallowed my fears #at that very moment?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] What if I had apologized earlier? #What if I had given a chance to the #research institute thing back then?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] And the amount just increased #threefold after I lashed out at you the #other day. [STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] But today, I realized something.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Having such regrets with the dead is a #hollow effort.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] You're alive, you're here. I can make #amends with you... but I can't make amends #with the dead.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I can't apologize to her like I can #apologize to you right now.[STOPLIP:]

[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I need to ask, though. Did she really #start to complain about chest pains shortly #after I left?[STOPLIP:]

[XS:gabytalk,1][C:43]Gaby:[C:C] I was just too angry back then, and #part of me just wanted to put the blame #on... someone or something.[XS:gabytalk,0][STOPLIP:]
[XS:gabytalk,1][C:43]Gaby:[C:C] And you didn't deserve that. Sorry.[XS:gabytalk,0][STOPLIP:]

[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I should've been mature and not shouted #at you either. So.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Let's just call all that water under #the bridge, shall we?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:gabyface,shy][XS:gabytalk,1][C:43]Gaby:[C:C] Are you sure?[XS:gabytalk,0][STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Of course I am.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] ...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] So, how did you find me, exactly?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:gabytalk,1][C:43]Gaby:[C:C] E-Eh? Um... [XS:gabytalk,0][STOPLIP:]

[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] ...I have, yeah.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:gabytalk,1][C:43]Gaby:[C:C] Well, truth is that I visit it from #time to time.[XS:gabytalk,0][STOPLIP:]
[XS:gabytalk,1][C:43]Gaby:[C:C] And the other day, I read a thread that #discussed the bar.[XS:gabytalk,0][STOPLIP:]

[XS:gabytalk,1][C:43]Gaby:[C:C] What sparked that fight? Weren't you #happy with my sister?[XS:gabytalk,0][STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Well... hm...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Back then, I didn't know what to do #with myself after I graduated college.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I went in and pretty much hated my #last couple of years there.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] It's not far-fetched to think that I #only tolerated being there because your #sister was with me.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Had she stopped supporting my studies, #I would've quit right then and there.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] And then after graduating, I got a #very good job offer... that she accepted #on my behalf in no time.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] She kept saying it was the best for me #and my future, but I was LIVID. Why did she #have to do that?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I hated it... I didn't even know if I #wanted to go there, but she still insisted #so much. [STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Like she was forcing that burden on #me.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] And then "my" became "our" future and #she started talking about marriage...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:gabyface,surprise][XS:gabytalk,1][C:43]Gaby:[C:C] YOU WERE GOING TO GET MARRIED?![XS:gabytalk,0][STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I don't think we ever took it #seriously! It was just something she #kept mentioning.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Not like we didn't think about that #down the line, but she mostly teased me #with it.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:gabyface,][XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] But the thought suddenly scared the #shit out of me...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I loved her, but I don't think I was #ready for such a commitment. Especially #considering what she did.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I didn't know what I wanted to do, but #I wasn't going to let her decide such a big #thing for me.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I mean, she could be really pushy from #time to time.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Like I said, I pretty much passed #college thanks to being with her. And that #was partly because she was so pushy.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Even if she had the best intentions, #she could be... abrasive from time to time.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] And it rained down on me at that #moment.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] She took it upon herself to make that #choice for me. What would have stopped her #once we'd gotten married?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] What if she suddenly decided to craft #my life to her needs after marriage?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I knew her. She would do it thinking it #was the best for me. But what about my #freedom? My say on the matter?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:gabytalk,1][C:43]Gaby:[C:C] So that's where you stopped loving #Lenore?[XS:gabytalk,0][STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] No! No, no...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I never stopped loving her, which is #why it hurt so much. But you have to #understand.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I didn't want to wake up 40 years old #and working a job I hate.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Just out of routine. Getting used to #it.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I wanted a break from everything for a #while to put my thoughts in order.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Regroup myself. Think carefully about #what to do next.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:gabyface,shy][XS:gabytalk,1][C:43]Gaby:[C:C] I can understand. I've sometimes felt the #same, although I'm not even in college.[XS:gabytalk,0][STOPLIP:]
[XS:gabyface,][XS:gabytalk,1][C:43]Gaby:[C:C] So that's what led to you two fighting, #huh?[XS:gabytalk,0][STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Heh. You know, the word "fight" makes #it sound like we exchanged blows or #something.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] It's all silly when I think back to it. #Tragically silly.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Maybe I was the one who started the #fight, getting all defensive about not #wanting to take that offer.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Perhaps if I didn't overreact to her #arguments about wasting this huge #opportunity... [STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Maybe she wouldn't have lashed out at #me this bad.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] It could've been avoided if I had #just kept a cool head and talked about #that with her.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:gabytalk,1][C:43]Gaby:[C:C] ...my sister said something like that.[XS:gabytalk,0][STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Eh?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:gabytalk,1][C:43]Gaby:[C:C] I told you she mentioned on more than #one occasion how sorry she was about the #whole thing, right?[XS:gabytalk,0][STOPLIP:]
[XS:gabytalk,1][C:43]Gaby:[C:C] "Should've listened to her to the end, #but instead I kept pushing her."[XS:gabytalk,0][STOPLIP:]
[XS:gabytalk,1][C:43]Gaby:[C:C] "I should've kept a cool head instead #of letting my jealousy take the best of #me."[XS:gabytalk,0][STOPLIP:]
[XS:gabytalk,1][C:43]Gaby:[C:C] "It was her offer, not mine. Should've #stopped projecting myself so much into her."[XS:gabytalk,0][STOPLIP:]
[XS:gabytalk,1][C:43]Gaby:[C:C] Something like that.[XS:gabytalk,0][STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Lenore...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:gabyface,smile][XS:gabytalk,1][C:43]Gaby:[C:C] Heheh... we are quite the hot heads. #You, me, my sis.[XS:gabytalk,0][STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] You were supposed to be the mature one, #you know? Play your role correctly![STOPLIP:]
[C:43]Gaby:[C:C] Heh...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:gabyface,shy][XS:gabytalk,1][C:43]Gaby:[C:C] But why didn't you come back, Jill? #Did you end up hating us that much?[XS:gabytalk,0][STOPLIP:]
[XS:gabytalk,1][C:43]Gaby:[C:C] Did the break include us too?[XS:gabytalk,0][STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] No, it's just that... [STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] ...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Remember when your sister was giving a #class and you broke a window?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] How you didn't want to see her for fear #of being scolded?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:gabyface,surprise][XS:gabytalk,1][C:43]Gaby:[C:C] But my sister wouldn't have scolded #you.[XS:gabytalk,0][STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] But I was afraid. Dead afraid. I #couldn't bring myself to face your #sister.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:gabytalk,1][C:43]Gaby:[C:C] But I faced her back then, and I was, #like, 7 at the time. Why couldn't you do #it?[XS:gabytalk,0][STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] It's... not quite the same.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] And in perspective, no matter what #reason I come up with, it will never make #sense.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Everything sounds very stupid when I #look back, you know? Not that it makes #things easier.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I won't ever get to speak to her ever #again, and it feels bad because it's #stupid![STOPLIP:]
[XS:gabyface,shyclosed][XS:gabytalk,1][C:43]Gaby:[C:C] I swear, you and my sis were meant for #one another.[XS:gabytalk,0][STOPLIP:]
[XS:gabyface,][XS:gabytalk,1][C:43]Gaby:[C:C] You both moved on after all that, but #neither had the courage to go back and say #you're sorry.[XS:gabytalk,0][STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] *sigh* And like I said, berating myself #over those past mistakes won't bring her #back.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:gabyface,shyclosed][XS:gabytalk,1][C:43]Gaby:[C:C] ...I miss her so much though.[XS:gabytalk,0][STOPLIP:]
[XS:gabytalk,1][C:43]Gaby:[C:C] We were together all the time! Always #talking about dumb stuff.[XS:gabytalk,0][STOPLIP:]
[XS:gabytalk,1][C:43]Gaby:[C:C] I wouldn't call my parents useless, but #she was the one I could always talk to.[XS:gabytalk,0][STOPLIP:]
[XS:gabytalk,1][C:43]Gaby:[C:C] I feel her absence every day.[XS:gabytalk,0][STOPLIP:]
[XS:gabytalk,1][C:43]Gaby:[C:C] Everything is just so... quiet now.[XS:gabytalk,0][STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] She was an amazing person.[STOPLIP:]

[SHOW:0,ending_playlist][XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Mourning is fine and all, but we should #be celebrating her life![STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] If she was here, she would tell us that #there's no fun in sulking for so long.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:gabyface,smile][XS:gabytalk,1][C:43]Gaby:[C:C] She told YOU that all the time.[XS:gabytalk,0][STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] The same way she told you to stop #rubbing things in people's faces.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Both figuratively and literally.[STOPLIP:]

[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] It's obvious to me now that we both #meant to make amends at some point, but we #never got around to it.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I can't apologize to you anymore, but I #can at the very least make you rest easier.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] So know that I'll look out for Gaby in #your absence.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I'll make sure Gaby grows into a fine #woman, just like you were. I'll always be #there for her.[STOPLIP:]

[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Hey, Gaby. Do your parents know you're #here?[STOPLIP:]

[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Who?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:gabyface,smile][XS:gabytalk,1][C:43]Gaby:[C:C] Oh. She's my best friend at school.[STOPLIP:]

[XS:gabyface,shysmile][XS:gabytalk,1][C:43]Gaby:[C:C] Of course! How would she cover for me #otherwise?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] True.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Will you go to her house afterwards?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:gabyface,shy][XS:gabytalk,1][C:43]Gaby:[C:C] To be honest, I didn't think that #far...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:gabytalk,1][C:43]Gaby:[C:C] Maybe I will, I do live in another #district, but Clarie doesn't live close #by, so...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:gabyface,shyclosed][XS:gabytalk,1][C:43]Gaby:[C:C] Hm...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Well, it can't be helped.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I live nearby and the streets aren't #exactly safe at night. Why not stay with #me tonight?[STOPLIP:]

[XS:gabytalk,1][C:43]Gaby:[C:C] He bet a Beer on whether he was right #or not.[XS:gabytalk,0][STOPLIP:]
[XS:gabyface,smile][XS:gabytalk,1][C:43]Gaby:[C:C] ...that Beer bottle is still in the #fridge. It's even labeled "sweet victory".[XS:gabytalk,0][STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Heh.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] ...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Your mom and Lenore never made up, did #they?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:gabyface,shyclosed][XS:gabytalk,1][C:43]Gaby:[C:C] *sigh* [XS:gabytalk,0][STOPLIP:]
[XS:gabyface,shysad][XS:gabytalk,1][C:43]Gaby:[C:C] I guess that one wasn't as simple as #the "said one too many things" argument.[XS:gabytalk,0][STOPLIP:]
[XS:gabytalk,1][C:43]Gaby:[C:C] Mom was always obsessed with high #society and in her circle of friends, a #lesbian daughter was a no-no.[XS:gabytalk,0][STOPLIP:]
[XS:gabyface,][XS:gabytalk,1][C:43]Gaby:[C:C] I'm still on my sis' side for that one, #though.[XS:gabytalk,0][STOPLIP:]
[XS:gabytalk,1][C:43]Gaby:[C:C] Mom didn't reject her because she #herself was homophobic, she did it because #her friends were.[XS:gabytalk,0][STOPLIP:]
[XS:gabyface,angry][XS:gabytalk,1][C:43]Gaby:[C:C] To mom, the opinion of her circle of #friends was worth more than her own #daughter.[XS:gabytalk,0][STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] How did she react to her death?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:gabyface,][XS:gabytalk,1][C:43]Gaby:[C:C] Dunno, mom and dad broke up two years #ago.[XS:gabytalk,0][STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] They did?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:gabytalk,1][C:43]Gaby:[C:C] They never got married, so there was #no proper divorce.[XS:gabytalk,0][STOPLIP:]
[XS:gabytalk,1][C:43]Gaby:[C:C] I haven't seen her since... August, I #think.[XS:gabytalk,0][STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Did you two fight too?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:gabyface,shy][XS:gabytalk,1][C:43]Gaby:[C:C] No, she just hasn't showed up.[XS:gabytalk,0][STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] You must've felt alone, huh? I've been #there.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:gabyface,smile][XS:gabytalk,1][C:43]Gaby:[C:C] A bit, but I'm not alone anymore. #Thanks to you.[XS:gabytalk,0][STOPLIP:]

[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Must be the alcohol.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:gabyface,surprise][XS:gabytalk,1][C:43]Gaby:[C:C] The WHAT?![STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I did say "let's break the alcohol #taboo," didn't I?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:gabyface,shy][XS:gabytalk,1][C:43]Gaby:[C:C] Yeah, but...[XS:gabytalk,0][STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Don't worry, it'll pass in a bit.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] And let this be a warning of the #dangers of taking things from strangers #in bars.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] First you feel dizzy, then you wake up #in a bathtub full of ice.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:gabyface,][XS:gabytalk,1][C:43]Gaby:[C:C] If you're trying to justify your action #with a moral, you're digging yourself #deeper.[XS:gabytalk,0][XS:ph,6][E:7][STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]???:[C:C] Huh? I thought there was gonna be a #party here.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Alma, over here.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:gabyface,surprise][XS:gabytalk,1][C:43]Gaby:[C:C] Party?[XS:gabytalk,0][STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] A small New Year's celebration.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Wanna stay for it?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:gabyface,shy][XS:gabytalk,1][C:43]Gaby:[C:C] I-I don't want a kid to burden...[XS:gabytalk,0][STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Don't worry, you won't. You'll only get #cola for the night, though. No alcohol.[XS:ph,7][E:8][STOPLIP:]
[XS:gabyface,][XS:gabytalk,1][C:43]Gaby:[C:C] I think it's a bit late for that.[XS:gabytalk,0][STOPLIP:]

[XS:ph,9][XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] It'll give us time to catch up even #more. I can introduce you to some friends. #Are you in?[STOPLIP:]

[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I stumbled across her on my way in #and asked her if she wanted to tag along.[STOPLIP:]

[XS:gilface,][XS:giltalk,1][C:19]Gillian:[C:C] Sure. Make yourself at home.[XS:giltalk,0][STOPLIP:]

[XS:giltalk,1][C:19]Gillian:[C:C] She went out for a bit. I don't #know what for, but she'll be back.[XS:giltalk,0][STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Alright.[XS:gilhide,1][STOPLIP:]

[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Oh, just something they made me say #back in Instruction. It kind of stuck.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Huh...[XS:almatalk,0][STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] I went to a school that made us stand #up with our hands on our backs when someone #came in.[XS:almatalk,0][STOPLIP:]

[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Oh yeah, look at this.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] A glass with a signature?[XS:almatalk,0][STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] To Ji... Jiiii... um...[XS:almatalk,0][STOPLIP:]
[XS:almaface,confused][XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] I'll assume it's either an autograph #or an impromptu medicine recipe.[XS:almatalk,0][STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] That *Kira* Miki girl came here #yesterday before her concert, actually.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almaface,][XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Oh, yeah. Now I see her name here.[XS:almatalk,0][STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] You don't seem very surprised.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almaface,smile][XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] I like b-LINK more, actually.[XS:almatalk,0][STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] The stoic-looking duo, right?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almaface,][XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Yup, those.[XS:almatalk,0][STOPLIP:]
[XS:almaface,sigh][XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] *sigh* Seems you had a better day #than mine yesterday. I had to break up #with Damian.[XS:almatalk,0][STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I see. Want a drink?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almaface,serious][XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] You... don't seem very surprised.[XS:almatalk,0][STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Alma, we've known each other for... #what? A few months now?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I'd be interested if those #"relationships" of yours went further #than a week or two.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] You say you broke up, but there's #usually not enough time to foster #something to break.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] It's more like... "The guy wasn't what #I wanted so I stopped flirting."[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almaface,concern][XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] ...you could pretend to be more #interested, you know?[XS:almatalk,0][STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Like my mom says: "If I don't buy it, #it's because I know the product".[STOPLIP:]

[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Usually the one who registers it.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Some people have quite the silly #sense of humor.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Like that girl who keeps laughing over #this particular drink's name?[XS:almatalk,0][STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Yeah, yeah...[XS:ph,4][XS:mix,0][E:4][STOPLIP:]

[XS:almaface,][XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] The one with the nice car.[XS:almatalk,0][STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Sure, he's also the manager at the #bank, but that car was what caught my #eye.[XS:almatalk,0][STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] And what was wrong with him?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Turns out he was a LARPer.[XS:almatalk,0][STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] LARP?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Live Action Role Playing.[XS:almatalk,0][STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Sounds more like the nickname of some #very heavy-handed writer. Or a military #organization.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] What did he roleplay as?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Have you heard of the Woodstock fairs?[XS:almatalk,0][STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Those events where people barely #dress, stink, roll in the mud, and fuck in #the open?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almaface,sigh][XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Those are hippies, yeah.[XS:almatalk,0][STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] He frequents those and... it's #something I'd rather not deal with. #At all.[XS:almatalk,0][STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] If I stayed with him, I'd eventually #have to. [XS:almatalk,0][STOPLIP:]
[XS:almaface,concern][XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] I mean, I need to support my partner #in what he does, but if it's something #like that...[XS:almatalk,0][STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] You see? That's the problem right #there.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] You say breaking up like you had #something formal, but most of the time #you're still getting to know him.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Think about it. Have you ended your #longest lasting relationships for things #like those?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almaface,serious][XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Okay, sorry for not using the right #word or whatever. But I'm still sorely #disappointed.[XS:almatalk,0][STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] And at least I'm trying to get some #action. When was the last time you spent #the night with someone else?[XS:almatalk,0][STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Last night.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almaface,sigh][XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Your cat doesn't count.[XS:almatalk,0][STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] A year ago. It was messy.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] See?[XS:almatalk,0][STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] I mean, I have no idea how you deal #with that.[XS:almatalk,0][STOPLIP:]
[XS:almaface,][XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] If I were you, I would've pushed #fuckboy over there into a closet ages #ago.[XS:almatalk,0][STOPLIP:]

[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] People have different needs and #priorities.[STOPLIP:]

[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Anything I can make you to shut up #and drink?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almaface,][XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] I'll have you know that my uncle #Juan taught me ventriloquism when I #was 12.[XS:almatalk,0][STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Drinking won't stop me from #talking... or making tasteless puns for #aunt Rosa.[XS:almatalk,0][STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Still, get me something weird, would #you?[XS:almatalk,0][STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] (Huh, ventriloquism.)[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Weird? A weird drink?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Yeah, something different, #experimental, uncommon...[XS:almatalk,0][STOPLIP:]

[RES:][XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Here.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Yeah, this fits the bill.[XS:almatalk,0][STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] It's a promotional drink made to #commemorate a movie.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Read, "they leapt at the chance to #sell drinks that would be unmarketable #otherwise".[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Oh...[XS:almatalk,0][XS:mix,0][XS:ph,6][E:8][STOPLIP:]
[RES:][XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Here you go.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Nope, this looks pretty common to me.[XS:almatalk,0][STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] I'll take it anyways, but no tip for #this one.[XS:almatalk,0][XS:mix,0][XS:ph,6][E:9][STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] You know, your orders are weird today.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] They are?[XS:almatalk,0][STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Yeah, usually the first thing you ask #for is a Brandtini. And then something like #a Cobalt Velvet or something similar.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Well, I sometimes feel like I need #something different, you know?[XS:almatalk,0][STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Something tells me part of the reason #you left this Damian is because he was too #deep into routine.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almaface,sigh][XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] ...maybe.[XS:almatalk,0][STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Hey, speaking of routines...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] As a hacker, what's your opinion on #the whole Alice_Rabbit thing?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almaface,serious][XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] ...[XS:almatalk,0][STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] That's the silence of somebody who #just heard something stupid.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Stupid enough to warrant the speech #they've prepared just for occasions like #this.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] As always, very perceptive of you.[XS:almatalk,0][STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] You know, decades ago, there was this #group of people that hacked simple sites #with an "agenda".[XS:almatalk,0][STOPLIP:]

[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I refuse.[STOPLIP:]

[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] I mean, it's not a date. I just wanna #have a conversation with you outside these #four walls.[XS:almatalk,0][STOPLIP:]

[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] It was originally supposed to replicate #the Martini.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Problem is, the BTC got a hold of a #brand of vermouth that was named after a #certain automobile company.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] So, on a weird whim, they changed the #name.[STOPLIP:]

[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] A Brandford. A blended Brandtini, so #to speak.[STOPLIP:]

[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] How so?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almaface,drunk][XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] They celebrate your budding sexuality.[XS:almatalk,0][STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] It's the point where society tells #you that you can fuck.[XS:almatalk,0][STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] That you're starting to look appealing #enough for other people to consider fucking #you.[XS:almatalk,0][STOPLIP:]
[XS:almaface,drunkconcern][XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] It's also the hypocritical way they #tell you "You can, but SHOULDN'T fuck".[XS:almatalk,0][STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I guess that's one way of seeing it.[STOPLIP:]

[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Well, her love for what she does is so #honest and pure that anyone who tries to #ruin it should be ashamed.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dtalk,1][C:20]Mr. Donovan:[C:C] Oh, don't give me that shit.[XS:dtalk,0][STOPLIP:]
[XS:dtalk,1][C:20]Mr. Donovan:[C:C] Throw me a bone here. Anything.[XS:dtalk,0][STOPLIP:]

[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I'm serious here. She said nothing #that could be used against her or that you #didn't already know.[STOPLIP:]

[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Why only women?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dtalk,1][C:20]Mr. Donovan:[C:C] Did you ever watch "Race for #Hope"?[XS:dtalk,0][STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] The movie?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dtalk,1][C:20]Mr. Donovan:[C:C] Yeah. [XS:dtalk,0][STOPLIP:]
[XS:dtalk,1][C:20]Mr. Donovan:[C:C] A movie about a journalist #looking for clues regarding a murder.[XS:dtalk,0][STOPLIP:]
[XS:dtalk,1][C:20]Mr. Donovan:[C:C] That tacky movie had everything. #Romance, action, a dog with sunglasses...[XS:dtalk,0][STOPLIP:]
[XS:dtalk,1][C:20]Mr. Donovan:[C:C] It also sold this weird #fantastical image of what journalism is.[XS:dtalk,0][STOPLIP:]
[XS:dtalk,1][C:20]Mr. Donovan:[C:C] I'm guessing lots of girls saw #it in high school and wanted to become #journalists.[XS:dtalk,0][STOPLIP:]
[XS:dtalk,1][C:20]Mr. Donovan:[C:C] And now I have to deal with #that shit.[XS:dtalk,0][STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] How can you be so sure?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dtalk,1][C:20]Mr. Donovan:[C:C] My first brother-in-law was a #doctor.[XS:dtalk,0][STOPLIP:]
[XS:dtalk,1][C:20]Mr. Donovan:[C:C] He said that a couple of years #after that "Emergency Heart" movie, all of #his interns were women for a long while.[XS:dtalk,0][STOPLIP:]
[XS:dtalk,1][C:20]Mr. Donovan:[C:C] And this why you don't let brats #that barely understand what responsibilities #are pick a career.[XS:dtalk,0][STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Um...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Do you perhaps know a girl named #Kimberly La Vallette?[STOPLIP:]

[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Um... nobody. Forget I said anything.[XS:ph,5][E:22][STOPLIP:]

[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] E-Excuse me?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dtalk,1][C:20]Mr. Donovan:[C:C] I mean, I've seen a couple of #pornos where they have 'em, but they could #be modded, you know?[XS:dtalk,0][STOPLIP:]
[XS:dtalk,1][C:20]Mr. Donovan:[C:C] So yesterday, while interviewing #the singer Lilim chick, I kept wondering #if those tits had nipples.[XS:dtalk,0][STOPLIP:]
[XS:dtalk,1][C:20]Mr. Donovan:[C:C] I mean, I'd be fine without #them, but the curiosity is killing me.[XS:dtalk,0][STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] ...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dtalk,1][C:20]Mr. Donovan:[C:C] But I'm even more curious about #the engineers that design them.[XS:dtalk,0][STOPLIP:]
[XS:dtalk,1][C:20]Mr. Donovan:[C:C] Can you picture a room full of #people discussing whether or not the tits #on a Lilim look good?[XS:dtalk,0][STOPLIP:]
[XS:dtalk,1][C:20]Mr. Donovan:[C:C] A bunch of guys and a lesbo #engineer wondering if the latest model's #vagina is good enough.[XS:dtalk,0][STOPLIP:]
[XS:donface,smile][XS:dtalk,1][C:20]Mr. Donovan:[C:C] Man, god bless those #sonsabitches.[XS:dtalk,0][STOPLIP:]

[XS:donface,][XS:dtalk,1][C:20]Mr. Donovan:[C:C] You expect me to share my #information when you wouldn't share your #scoop on the singer?[XS:dtalk,0][STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] How can one share when there's #honestly nothing to share?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dtalk,1][C:20]Mr. Donovan:[C:C] Uh huh...[XS:dtalk,0][STOPLIP:]
[XS:dtalk,1][C:20]Mr. Donovan:[C:C] I'm gonna be a good citizen #today and let this one pass.[XS:dtalk,0][STOPLIP:]
[XS:dtalk,1][C:20]Mr. Donovan:[C:C] Have you heard of a group #called "The Harbingers"?[XS:dtalk,0][STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Not really, no.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dtalk,1][C:20]Mr. Donovan:[C:C] They're some group wanting to #overthrow the White Knights.[XS:dtalk,0][STOPLIP:]
[XS:dtalk,1][C:20]Mr. Donovan:[C:C] I read their manifesto in the #bathroom once. Interesting piece and even #better makeshift toilet paper.[XS:dtalk,0][STOPLIP:]
[XS:dtalk,1][C:20]Mr. Donovan:[C:C] They talk about how the #organization is corrupt, full of mob #bosses or something like that.[XS:dtalk,0][STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I think I've heard about that #somewhere. What of them?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dtalk,1][C:20]Mr. Donovan:[C:C] They sent a message to some #outlets saying they have proof of their #claims. [XS:dtalk,0][STOPLIP:]
[XS:dtalk,1][C:20]Mr. Donovan:[C:C] That they're gonna release it #to the public tomorrow.[XS:dtalk,0][STOPLIP:]

[XS:dtalk,1][C:20]Mr. Donovan:[C:C] So, I've heard this is Dana #Zane's bar. Is it true?[XS:dtalk,0][STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Yeah.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:donface,smile][XS:dtalk,1][C:20]Mr. Donovan:[C:C] Never thought I'd hear about #the Undefeated of the West again.[XS:dtalk,0][STOPLIP:]
[XS:dtalk,1][C:20]Mr. Donovan:[C:C] Moreso after that incident with #the bears. Where is she?[XS:dtalk,0][STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] She's out running some err-... bears?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:donface,][XS:dtalk,1][C:20]Mr. Donovan:[C:C] Six years ago, a cash-strapped #Dana Zane entered an underground ring for #money.[XS:dtalk,0][STOPLIP:]
[XS:dtalk,1][C:20]Mr. Donovan:[C:C] Faced ten enraged grizzly bears. #She beat them all without killing them.[XS:dtalk,0][STOPLIP:]
[XS:dtalk,1][C:20]Mr. Donovan:[C:C] I heard she set them free #afterwards too.[XS:dtalk,0][STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] And you were there?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dtalk,1][C:20]Mr. Donovan:[C:C] I was drunk and bored. What can #I say?[XS:dtalk,0][STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Do you know if she lost her arm there?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dtalk,1][C:20]Mr. Donovan:[C:C] Can't remember, too drunk. #Maybe she had her prosthetic then too.[XS:dtalk,0][STOPLIP:]
[XS:dtalk,1][C:20]Mr. Donovan:[C:C] I heard someone there suggest #that she lost it after throwing a baseball #out of some stadium. [XS:dtalk,0][STOPLIP:]
[XS:dtalk,1][C:20]Mr. Donovan:[C:C] Threw it so hard her arm fell #off.[XS:dtalk,0][STOPLIP:]
[XS:dtalk,1][C:20]Mr. Donovan:[C:C] But that sounds more like an #unsubstantiated rumor.[XS:dtalk,0][STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] (More like something she made up.)[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dtalk,1][C:20]Mr. Donovan:[C:C] Well, I gotta go. Next time you #see Dana, thank her for winning me my second #yacht.[XS:dtalk,0][STOPLIP:]

[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] E-Eh?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dtalk,1][C:20]Mr. Donovan:[C:C] This newspaper has become a #youthful mess where everyone thinks they're #the most important thing on the block.[XS:dtalk,0][STOPLIP:]
[XS:dtalk,1][C:20]Mr. Donovan:[C:C] Even if I didn't have to deal #with those employees, the investors and #readers are particularly obnoxious.[XS:dtalk,0][STOPLIP:]

[XS:dtalk,1][C:20]Mr. Donovan:[C:C] But it can buy stuff.[XS:dtalk,0][STOPLIP:]
[XS:dtalk,1][C:20]Mr. Donovan:[C:C] It lets you stay alive, gives #you shelter, and can make you comfortable. #And I'm not comfortable. [XS:dtalk,0][STOPLIP:]
[XS:dtalk,1][C:20]Mr. Donovan:[C:C] Not because I managed things #the wrong way, but because others won't let #me be.[XS:dtalk,0][STOPLIP:]
[XS:dtalk,1][C:20]Mr. Donovan:[C:C] And this fella has had enough #of it.[XS:dtalk,0][STOPLIP:]

[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] ...really?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dtalk,1][C:20]Mr. Donovan:[C:C] You keep quiet, don't talk #unless talked to, and listen attentively #to everything I say.[XS:dtalk,0][STOPLIP:]
[XS:dtalk,1][C:20]Mr. Donovan:[C:C] If you had more tits and ass, #I'd take you out of here right now.[XS:dtalk,0][STOPLIP:]

[XS:dtalk,1][C:20]Mr. Donovan:[C:C] I can't help but wonder how you #are outside of work.[XS:dtalk,0][STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] ...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dtalk,1][C:20]Mr. Donovan:[C:C] Maybe it's better if I don't #know.[XS:dtalk,0][STOPLIP:]
[XS:dtalk,1][C:20]Mr. Donovan:[C:C] Enough about you. It's time for #some me time.[XS:dtalk,0][STOPLIP:]

[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] No, it's not... or at least I don't #think so.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I don't get to serve many Cat Boomers, #so it's something I've been curious about.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Did you go through the procedure #because of a disease or because of the #fad?[XS:ph,13][E:49][STOPLIP:]

[XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] I'd rather not talk about it.[XS:steltalk,0][STOPLIP:]

[XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] Do you like alcohol?[XS:steltalk,0][STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Yeah, but not in the usual way. I don't #drink that much outside of canned Beer.[STOPLIP:]

[XS:doroface,][XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] Good. What happens in Neo-Tijuana #stays in Neo-Tijuana.[XS:dorotalk,0][STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Now I'm even more grateful.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] It was about some mid-school teacher.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] Ah yeah, that one... man, that was #a nice dick.[XS:dorotalk,0][STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] I guess I didn't mention the part #where he broke down crying afterwards?[XS:dorotalk,0][STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] He... what?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:doroface,think][XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] Yeah... I usually skip that part.[XS:dorotalk,0][STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] You see... half the times I have a #new client, they go through the same #routine.[XS:dorotalk,0][STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] They muster all their strength and #skip to the action.[XS:dorotalk,0][STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] Then they go nuts in bed... if #I'm lucky there WILL be a bed.[XS:dorotalk,0][STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] And afterwards they become a #sobbing mess.[XS:dorotalk,0][STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] How so?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:doroface,sad][XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] Well, imagine you indulged in #something society tells you is sick and #wrong.[XS:dorotalk,0][STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] Like emptying a full toothpaste #tube. [XS:dorotalk,0][STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] Only instead of leaving a minty #smell in your hands, you fuck an #underaged-looking Lilim girl.[XS:dorotalk,0][STOPLIP:]
[XS:doroface,think][XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] Even if it's a "safe" scenario meant #to let them vent their frustrations and #desires... [XS:dorotalk,0][STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] And even if I'm of a mental age #where I do everything knowing full well #what my actions entail...[XS:dorotalk,0][STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] Their morals inevitably start #kicking them in the nuts.[XS:dorotalk,0][STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] Therefore, I have to spend extra #time telling them that there's nothing #wrong with them.[XS:dorotalk,0][STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] Telling them it's not bad feeling #that way, that it's only wrong when they #start causing problems to others.[XS:dorotalk,0][STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] Then again, I suppose I have #quite the luck in drawing troubled #people to me.[XS:dorotalk,0][STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] (Well, considering your job and your #looks...)[STOPLIP:]
[XS:doroface,][XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] I've tried to convince the #mid-school teacher guy to spend another #night with me, but he's too stubborn.[XS:dorotalk,0][STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] You're not helping.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] I'm not trying. I need to build #up as many regulars as I can![XS:dorotalk,0][STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] Well, I gotta go. Came for a drink #and that Sei girl gave me one.[XS:dorotalk,0][STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] Always a pleasure, honey.[XS:dorotalk,0][XS:dorohide,1][STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Take care.[XS:ph,7][E:72][STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] So, you fancy yourself a diviner? #Reading people and all.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] Not really. I'm just quite good at #reading people.[XS:dorotalk,0][STOPLIP:]
[XS:doroface,pachi][XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] I guess it's a byproduct of dealing #with so many people on a daily basis.[XS:dorotalk,0][STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] (It's a bit surreal to hear that from #a Lilim.)[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] What can you say about me, then?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:doroface,][XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] Let's see... hm...[XS:dorotalk,0][STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] You're very, very, VERY sexually #frustrated.[XS:dorotalk,0][STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] It's not the act itself, but rather #that your partners can't seem to satisfy #you on a deeper level.[XS:dorotalk,0][STOPLIP:]
[XS:doroface,think][XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] There's an even deeper frustration. #Something happened that's blocking you.[XS:dorotalk,0][STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] Maybe there's someone who you know #won't return your feelings. Maybe you were #hurt in the past.[XS:dorotalk,0][STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] Thus, your demeanor is that of #someone who feels like life is playing #tricks on her. [XS:dorotalk,0][STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] Like a dog whose owner never really #throws the ball.[XS:dorotalk,0][STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] ...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] ...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:doroface,smug][XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] Oh boy, did I actually hit the nail #on the head? I was making this stuff up on #the fly![XS:dorotalk,0][STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] All of that was just rubbish I say #because it's right 80% of the time.[XS:dorotalk,0][STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] Generic bullshit if you will. You'd #be surprised at the amount of sexual #frustration people hold.[XS:dorotalk,0][STOPLIP:]
[XS:doroface,][XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] I can't read you, honey. You're too #good at putting on a professional face.[XS:dorotalk,0][STOPLIP:]
[XS:doroface,pachi][XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] But this definitely gives me more #insight into you. Lucky lucky~[XS:dorotalk,0][STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Aren't you late or something?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:doroface,smug][XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] I am. But if you'd let me satisfy #your frustrations, I could stall for some #time.[XS:dorotalk,0][STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Go.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:doroface,][XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] Fine, fine... Bye bye, honey.[XS:dorotalk,0][XS:dorohide,1][STOPLIP:]
[XS:giltalk,1][C:19]Gillian:[C:C] Artificial intelligence has come #rather far, eh? One wonders how artificial #it remains.[XS:giltalk,0][STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Shut up, Fuckboy.[XS:ph,7][E:73][STOPLIP:]

[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Hey, Boss. This might seem random, #but...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Do you remember the first time I came #to the bar?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] When you came to submit your contract? #Yeah, why?[XS:dantalk,0][STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Well, for some reason I've been hung #up on it since this morning, and I just #realized why.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] The visage that welcomed me back then #was... Gil trying to pull your hand out of #a jar.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:danaface,][XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] Oh yeah! THAT.[XS:dantalk,0][STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] I can't remember what exactly, but #something fell inside and I tried to #retrieve it.[XS:dantalk,0][STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] I just kinda put my hand in and it got #stuck. It was a friend's jar too so I #couldn't just break it.[XS:dantalk,0][STOPLIP:]
[XS:danaface,][XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] Hey Gil, how did you get my hand out #of that jar?[XS:dantalk,0][STOPLIP:]
[SHOW:280,sprite_dana][SHOW:120,sprite_gil][XS:giltalk,1][C:19]Gillian:[C:C] A straw and some butter.[XS:giltalk,0][STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] Oh yeah, clever solution.[XS:dantalk,0][STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Yeah, and that brings me to the random #thought.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] That incident, the helmet yesterday, #the many times your foot got stuck on #something for stomping it...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Boss... why do you get stuck in so #many different things?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:gilface,surprise][XS:giltalk,1][C:19]Gillian:[C:C] Huh...[XS:giltalk,0][STOPLIP:]
[XS:giltalk,1][C:19]Gillian:[C:C] Now that you mention it, I remember #this one time she tried to eat a big #sandwich and her jaw got stuck.[XS:giltalk,0][STOPLIP:]
[XS:gilface,][XS:giltalk,1][C:19]Gillian:[C:C] Then there was the incident with the #TV...[XS:giltalk,0][STOPLIP:]

[XS:news,0][XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] G'evening...[STOPLIP:]
[SHOW:185,sprite_dana][XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] Huh? I didn't expect you today. I was #waiting for you to call and say you wouldn't #be coming or something.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Things at the Apollo Bank are getting #ugly, so that means more people will be #looking for a drink.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:danaface,eee][XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] *sigh* You can take a break, you know? #You're quite the hard worker. [STOPLIP:]
[XS:danaface,worry][XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] And the streets are not exactly... #safe right now.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] They've never been when you get down #to it.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] And besides, I can't afford to not #come with the bar closing soon.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:danaface,][XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] I wonder if any bar has used impending #closure as a means of getting their #employees to work.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] Seems like the total opposite would #happen.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Not to mention I get bored out of my #brains in my apartment, so I'd rather come #here, anyway.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] What did you say?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Nothing important.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Gil isn't back yet?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] Nope. I wouldn't worry too much about #him though.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] If you say so...[XS:ph,2][E:2][STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] That girl's still here?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] Yup, she was sleeping so peacefully #I felt bad about waking her up.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:danaface,eee][XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] So... would you mind doing that for #me?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Actually... yes, I mind.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] But you're the boss, and it's kinda my #fault she's here in the first place...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] Sorry about that.[XS:danhide,1][STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Hey, young lady! Sleep another hour #and we'll have to start charging you a motel #fee.[STOPLIP:]

[XS:streamtalk,1][C:27]Streaming-chan:[C:C] AAAAAAAAAH!! THE MOON! IT #BURNS!![STOPLIP:]

[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] A client gave it to me yesterday... a #gift of sorts, I'm guessing.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] Oh, cool.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] It's some sort of rum.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] Rum? Nice![STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Want me to serve you a bit of it?[STOPLIP:]

[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] Whatever. I shouldn't be drinking at #work anyways.[XS:danhide,1][STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] That sounds weird when you own a #bar.[XS:mix,0][XS:ph,6][E:7][STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] A bottle of Absinthe I had at home.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I went to have it appraised, but the #guy said that without label, there's not #that much value to it.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] It's still a nice bottle of Absinthe, #though.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] I see.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] Are you gonna serve it today?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] It looks like the Absinthe can be #detected by the station's database, so #it's not conunterfeit.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I'll serve it only if customers ask #for it.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] Sounds good.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Want me to serve you a glass of it?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:danaface,][XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] I'll pass. Absinthe's not my kind of #thing.[STOPLIP:]

[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Ok Taylor.[STOPLIP:]

[XS:taylortalk,1][C:28]Taylor:[C:C] What? Does my handsomeness make you #speechless?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] You're not something a girl sees every #day. And that's saying quite a bit in these #parts.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:taylortalk,1][C:28]Taylor:[C:C] Fear not! For I have a speech #prepared for these situations.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] A speech?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:taylortalk,1][C:28]Taylor:[C:C] You're seeing one of the 5 Great #Living Bottled Brains of the world.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:taylortalk,1][C:28]Taylor:[C:C] We are brains living in conditions #that allow us to exist as any other #humanoid creature. [STOPLIP:]
[XS:taylortalk,1][C:28]Taylor:[C:C] All while computers in our jars scan #our activities.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:taylortalk,1][C:28]Taylor:[C:C] In a slow but steady manner, we are #helping the world understand the inner #workings of nature's most complex computer.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I'm guessing you prepared that after #being asked the same question too many #times, huh?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:taylortalk,1][C:28]Taylor:[C:C] Not out of exasperation or anything #like that, mind you.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:taylortalk,1][C:28]Taylor:[C:C] I just wanted to have something #thoughtful prepared.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:taylortalk,1][C:28]Taylor:[C:C] Look! I even have a couple of #pamphlets with me.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:taylortalk,1][C:28]Taylor:[C:C] You want one?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Sure...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] What brings one of our world's five #brains in jars to this place though?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:taylortalk,1][C:28]Taylor:[C:C] Oh, I'm from around here, actually.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:taylortalk,1][C:28]Taylor:[C:C] I just wanted to take a walk for the #first time in... quite a bit of time.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Have you come here before?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:taylortalk,1][C:28]Taylor:[C:C] Sadly, no. Otherwise I'd remember a #cute face like yours.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:taylortalk,1][C:28]Taylor:[C:C] Speaking of which, can I have your #name?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Um... it's Jill.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:taylortalk,1][C:28]Taylor:[C:C] Jill? That's a really cute name.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Thank you.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Say, weren't you scared of going #outside today? What with the commotion #around and all...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:taylortalk,1][C:28]Taylor:[C:C] It didn't stop you from coming here #either, did it?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Yeah, you're right.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:taylortalk,1][C:28]Taylor:[C:C] It's gonna take more than cryptic #but ominous news to stop me.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] You're awfully energetic, did you know #that?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:taylortalk,1][C:28]Taylor:[C:C] Sorry, does that bother you?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] No, not at all. Just that I figured a #brain in a jar wouldn't be so... happy.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:taylortalk,1][C:28]Taylor:[C:C] While I was alive, my body got to a #point where there wasn't much I could do.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:taylortalk,1][C:28]Taylor:[C:C] This new state of existence allows #me to accomplish more than I ever could #before. [STOPLIP:]
[XS:taylortalk,1][C:28]Taylor:[C:C] Plus, I'm doing something that'll #help people in the long run.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:taylortalk,1][C:28]Taylor:[C:C] Wouldn't you be happy?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I wonder...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:taylortalk,1][C:28]Taylor:[C:C] Do you wanna make me happy, Jill?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Depends on what it takes.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:taylortalk,1][C:28]Taylor:[C:C] Don't worry. Just give me a Beer.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Alright, then yeah. I'll make you #happy.[XS:ph,12][XS:mix,1][E:16][STOPLIP:]
[RES:][XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Here, a Beer.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:taylortalk,1][C:28]Taylor:[C:C] Ah yes... no matter what happens, #Beer's always good.[XS:ph,13][XS:mix,0][E:17][STOPLIP:]
[RES:][XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Here.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:taylortalk,1][C:28]Taylor:[C:C] I guess you didn't want to make me #happy, eh?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:taylortalk,1][C:28]Taylor:[C:C] I'm sorry if I annoyed you.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] No, it's not that...[XS:ph,13][XS:mix,0][E:18][STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] It's interesting, though. Just #yesterday I was talking to a client #about brain uploads.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:taylortalk,1][C:28]Taylor:[C:C] You were?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Yeah. We were talking about how, even #if you upload your brain, you'd still be #here. [STOPLIP:]
[XS:taylortalk,1][C:28]Taylor:[C:C] I've thought about that too.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:taylortalk,1][C:28]Taylor:[C:C] Do you think the you in the #cybernetic environment would feel like she #was indeed transferred?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:taylortalk,1][C:28]Taylor:[C:C] Like, would she remember everything? #Like waking up someplace else and so on?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Hm... that's an interesting question.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I was actually thinking earlier about #being able to transfer someone's brain into #a Lilim.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:taylortalk,1][C:28]Taylor:[C:C] One of the brains is being used in #such an experiment, actually. They can make #a functional Lilim. [STOPLIP:]
[XS:taylortalk,1][C:28]Taylor:[C:C] Unfortunately, the wiring and other #such stuff makes it look more creepy than #anything.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:taylortalk,1][C:28]Taylor:[C:C] They aren't transferring his #identity or anything though. Just wiring him to #a body.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Oh.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] You'd think someone would rather do #that than float around exposed in a jar.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:taylortalk,1][C:28]Taylor:[C:C] I have to admit the whole brain thing #does look creepy. [STOPLIP:]
[XS:taylortalk,1][C:28]Taylor:[C:C] But the body I'm telling you about is #just uncanny-looking.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Speaking of uncanny, how did you feel #when you saw yourself like this for the #first time?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:taylortalk,1][C:28]Taylor:[C:C] It was quite a shock, actually. It #didn't last too long, though. I never was #too attached to my body.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:taylortalk,1][C:28]Taylor:[C:C] Later in my life, that was almost #literal.[XS:ph,14][E:19][STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Hey, Taylor. May I ask something a #bit... indiscreet?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:taylortalk,1][C:28]Taylor:[C:C] You can ask anything you want.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] While you had your other body... were #you male or female?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:taylortalk,1][C:28]Taylor:[C:C] Hm... that's actually quite the #question.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:taylortalk,1][C:28]Taylor:[C:C] Especially considering I don't really #know the answer either.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] You don't?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:taylortalk,1][C:28]Taylor:[C:C] I mean, I remember my name WAS #Taylor.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:taylortalk,1][C:28]Taylor:[C:C] In fact, I remember every detail of #my life, but that the one thing's that's a #bit blurry.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Blurry?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:taylortalk,1][C:28]Taylor:[C:C] Yeah, the team that put me here said #that it might be a side effect of the whole #process...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:taylortalk,1][C:28]Taylor:[C:C] But my family and friends say that #even in life I didn't put too much thought #into questions about gender.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:taylortalk,1][C:28]Taylor:[C:C] So, in the end we're back to square #one.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Wait, don't you have pics or anything #else?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:taylortalk,1][C:28]Taylor:[C:C] To be honest, I've chosen to not #look too deeply into my old identity.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:taylortalk,1][C:28]Taylor:[C:C] Partly because I'm happier in this #ambiguous state.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:taylortalk,1][C:28]Taylor:[C:C] But also because I have this gut #feeling I'm not psychologically prepared to #see what I looked like.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:taylortalk,1][C:28]Taylor:[C:C] I don't know... I feel like if I do #I might... crumble.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Damn...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Just out of curiosity, in a third #person scenario... how should one refer #to you?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:taylortalk,1][C:28]Taylor:[C:C] By my name.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I guess that makes sense...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:taylortalk,1][C:28]Taylor:[C:C] If you absolutely need to use #pronouns, refer to me like you'd refer #to any other house appliance.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:taylortalk,1][C:28]Taylor:[C:C] A TV or anything like that. An "it".[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Are you okay with that?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:taylortalk,1][C:28]Taylor:[C:C] In the end, even if I can speak, #I'm just an object.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:taylortalk,1][C:28]Taylor:[C:C] That's actually something I've #internalized a long time ago. Even with #my original body.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I-I see...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:taylortalk,1][C:28]Taylor:[C:C] If that doesn't make you comfortable, #feel free to use neutral pronouns.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:taylortalk,1][C:28]Taylor:[C:C] To be honest, you can refer to me #however you want. I don't really pay mind #to that.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] But this isn't about what makes me #comfortable...[XS:ph,14][E:20][STOPLIP:]
[XS:taylortalk,1][C:28]Taylor:[C:C] You know what the downside to this #body is?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:taylortalk,1][C:28]Taylor:[C:C] I can't get drunk.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] If you want to call that a downside...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:taylortalk,1][C:28]Taylor:[C:C] If you wanted to drink alcohol for #the taste, there are many alternatives.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:taylortalk,1][C:28]Taylor:[C:C] Drunkenness is part of the whole #experience.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Why though? Lilim can get drunk with #no problem.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:taylortalk,1][C:28]Taylor:[C:C] Yeah, but in their case, their #brain's a computer attached to their body.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:taylortalk,1][C:28]Taylor:[C:C] Getting drunk causes their brains to #reduce the input speed to their bodies.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:taylortalk,1][C:28]Taylor:[C:C] Depending on the model, their "drunk-#subroutine" might throw in a different #behavioral cycle, even.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:taylortalk,1][C:28]Taylor:[C:C] It's hard to get drunk when the #whole point of you being in a jar is figuring #out exactly HOW you work.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Hm... yeah, you're right.[STOPLIP:]
[C:14]???:[C:C][XS:almatalk,1] Hey Jill![STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Oh, Alma.[STOPLIP:]
[SHOW:280,sprite_alma][SHOW:120,sprite_taylor][C:14]Alma:[C:C][XS:almaface,sigh][XS:almatalk,1] Just "Oh, Alma"? Where's the courtesy #one would expect from plebeian bar staff?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Welcome to Valhalla. What can I get #you?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] ...happy?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almaface,serious][XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Not when you put it that way.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:taylortalk,1][C:28]Taylor:[C:C] Why, hello there, beautiful.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Hm? [XS:almaface,worried][SHAKE:]WhoAAAAAAAAAH![STOPLIP:]
[XS:taylortalk,1][C:28]Taylor:[C:C] You hurt my feelings with that, #darling.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almaface,concern][XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] S-S-Sorry, you don't see talking #disembodied brains every day...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] I mean, I did work a summer in Lilim #maintenance but even then, those were #talking heads...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:taylortalk,1][C:28]Taylor:[C:C] Oh, don't worry about it. At least #you're not running or fainting.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:taylortalk,1][C:28]Taylor:[C:C] Your name was Alma, right? I'm #Taylor.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almaface,][XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] N-Nice to meet you, Taylor.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:taylortalk,1][C:28]Taylor:[C:C] Say, Alma. Can I buy you a drink?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almaface,sigh][XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Sorry, I only date people who're at #least 50% organic... and have at least one #face.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:taylortalk,1][C:28]Taylor:[C:C] Hm... I know just what to strive for #then![STOPLIP:]
[XS:taylortalk,1][C:28]Taylor:[C:C] Just kidding. It'd make me happy to #make you happy by buying you a drink. Does #that bother you?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almaface,][XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] I guess if Jill's the bartender, I #don't have a problem with that.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:taylortalk,1][C:28]Taylor:[C:C] Awesome! I'll pay for your next #drink then.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] What will you have?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] I'll have a Cobalt Velvet.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] And you, Taylor?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:taylortalk,1][C:28]Taylor:[C:C] I'm fine, actually.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] You're gonna have me drink alone?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:taylortalk,1][C:28]Taylor:[C:C] I don't wanna drink that much.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Okay, then...[XS:ph,15][XS:mix,1][E:21][STOPLIP:]
[RES:][XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Your drink.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:taylortalk,1][C:28]Taylor:[C:C] Hope you enjoy it.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almaface,smile][XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] You know, you've been nicer to me #these past minutes than at least three guys #have been in the last year.[XS:ph,16][XS:mix,0][E:22][STOPLIP:]
[RES:][XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Here.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:taylortalk,1][C:28]Taylor:[C:C] Hm? Do you not like Alma, Jill? You #messed up her drink.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almaface,sigh][XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Leave her be. She's just like that.[XS:ph,16][XS:mix,0][E:23][STOPLIP:]
[XS:taylortalk,1][C:28]Taylor:[C:C] Judging from the way you two talk, #I'm guessing you've been a client here #for a while now, right?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almaface,][XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Only for about half a year or so, if #memory serves right.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:taylortalk,1][C:28]Taylor:[C:C] Really? One would think it's been #longer.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] *sigh* It feels like it's been longer.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almaface,smug][XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Shut up, you love me and you know it.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:taylortalk,1][C:28]Taylor:[C:C] So, you just started coming here #and that was it?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almaface,][XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Well, the first time I came here, the #other guy... speaking of which, where's #Pablo?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Gillian.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Archimedes.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Dunno. Adventuring or something.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Anyways, the other guy served me the #first time I came here. Nothing unusual #there.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] The next time I showed up, Jill here #was the one serving and... I don't know, I #feel like she just gets me.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almaface,smile][XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] There's this... chemistry. We... #click.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] "We click", she says...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almaface,sigh][XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] The fact that I feel more chemistry #with her than with many other people is #kinda sad, though.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:taylortalk,1][C:28]Taylor:[C:C] It's always good to see a nice #friendship.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:taylortalk,1][C:28]Taylor:[C:C] Sadly, it's getting late and I've #gotta go.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:taylortalk,1][C:28]Taylor:[C:C] I'll leave you two lovely ladies #alone. See ya![XS:taylorhide,1][STOPLIP:]
[SHOW:185,sprite_alma][XS:almaface,][XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Bye.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Please come again.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almaface,smile][XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] That Taylor sure was nice.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] A bit weird at first, though.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Apparently one of five brains being #studied by scientists or something. [STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] There's a summary of it in this #pamphlet.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almaface,][XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Let's see...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Oh yeah, I've heard of them before. #Can't believe I actually met one.[XS:ph,17][E:24][STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Hey Alma, is your family really strict #or something?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Not particularly, no. Why?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] The other day you started mumbling #something about numbers not caring about #what you do.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] About a 27 not caring if you have a #Catholic wedding or not.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almaface,sigh][XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Oh gods, not the numbers thing...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almaface,concern][XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Yeah, My family isn't strict per se, #but my mom can be... really abrasive.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] To her, the fact that I'm this old and #not married or pregnant is a sign that I'm #never gonna have kids.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almaface,sigh][XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Nevermind the fact that she already #has three grandkids.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] I love her but she can be... well... #ugh.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Ah, yeah. I kinda get it.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] You also said the words "I was a #blossoming woman and I wasn't gonna stand #for it!"[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] After talking about some eighth grade #teacher.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] *sigh* Yeah, THAT.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almaface,][XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] You see, back when my body started #developing, I got really shy.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] But at some point, something snapped #within me.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almaface,smile][XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] I wasn't feeling shy anymore, I #felt... powerful.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] My body felt like a new toy to me, #one I was gonna make sure to use.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almaface,confused][XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Of course there were two problems with #that idea.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] I was a teen, a horny teen. And I was #surrounded by horny teens.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almaface,sigh][XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] *sigh* I'm not even ashamed. I still #stand by the core moral I held back then.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] But it's one of those memories that #you look back to and become terrified of #how reckless you were.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almaface,concern][XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] I mean, I could've gotten pregnant... #or worse.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] ...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] ...at that age I was always dressed in #black and was obsessed with occultism.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] The worst I remember was being the #butt of other kids' jokes.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] ...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almaface,][XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Well, you know how the old adage goes.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] "Don't compare your life to others. #You don't know what they've been through."[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Nah, I wasn't comparing. Just wondering #if some of that self-esteem thing would've #helped me back then.[XS:ph,18][E:25][STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Say Alma, how many people are there in #your family? Just curious.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almaface,][XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Well, aside from my mom and dad, we're #five sis-... [XS:almaface,concern]sorry, four sisters and one #brother.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almaface,][XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Funnily enough, we all have names that #start with the first five letters in the #alphabet.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] So you're the eldest one?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] No, I'm actually the middle kid.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] You're the middle kid but your name #starts with an A?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almaface,serious][XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Don't think too much about it. I #never said the order reflected our ages.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almaface,][XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] My sister Carlotta's the eldest one, #then there's Dayana just before me.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Then comes Eva and at the bottom lies #Bele-... [STOPLIP:]
[XS:almaface,sigh][XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] *ahem* Sorry. The youngest one is #Bernardo.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] You've never been alone, I'm guessing.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almaface,][XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Can't complain about that, I guess...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] It helps that we were never five in #the same house. [STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] By the time Evita and Bernie were #born, Dayana and Carlotta had already #moved.[XS:ph,18][E:26][STOPLIP:]
[XS:almaface,concern][XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Speaking of family. Today, I came #because I needed a break from everything #that's been going on with them.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Do you live with them?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almaface,][XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] No, but Evita and Bernie do. Not to #mention I visit them almost every day.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Anyway, my second-eldest sister, #Dayana, just separated from her husband. [STOPLIP:]
[XS:almaface,concern][XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] It's not even been a week but she's #already got some other guy in her bed.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] She left her kid with her husband's #parents and pretty much forgot about them.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almaface,sigh][XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Nevermind the fact that they need to #go to school and all that.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Damn...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Dayana's life has always been messy, #but these days she's really making it big.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] She wants "time for herself." To "live #her life."[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almaface,serious][XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] She didn't think about that when she #married the guy at 20.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] She didn't think about that when #marrying a guy she had only known for #like three months.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] You should take your own advice.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Hey, I'd never marry someone who could #catch my attention so quickly, okay?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almaface,confused][XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Sure, there was that one time when it #almost happened, but I blame the damn #stadium kiss cam.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Kiss cam?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almaface,][XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] I was going out with a guy my little #sister introduced to me.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Seems he was her friend's brother or #something.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] We went out a couple of times and he #invited me to a basketball game.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] The mood was nice but then later, the #kiss cam focused on us and instead of #kissing me, he proposed![STOPLIP:]
[XS:almaface,concern][XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] I almost got caught in the mood and #accepted.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Huh.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] So I take it you rejected him... in #a stadium... on the fucking kiss cam.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almaface,serious][XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] We went out for like 3 weeks![STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] I don't know. Maybe he wanted to get #in my pants with the old "sex on the #wedding night" line.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almaface,sigh][XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] But I honest-to-god can't understand #why he thought it would be a good idea.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] That sounds too convoluted, you know? #Proposing and waiting for the wedding night #just for sex.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almaface,serious][XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Never underestimate the lengths a man #is willing to go to get you in their bed.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] I've seen more convoluted plots over #the years.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I'm feeling tempted to ask. But I'll #pass.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Want anything else?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Hm? What's that bottle?[XS:ph,19][E:27][STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Oh yeah, it's just some rum a client #gave me yesterday.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almaface,][XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] A gift? What did you do?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] A good enough service, I'm guessing.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Ca... ci... que.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Huh, interesting name.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] What does it mean?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Cacique's the name of the chieftain #in some native tribes.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I see. Do you want me to serve you #some of this?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almaface,concern][XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] I'll pass. I don't have too many good #memories where rum's involved.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almaface,][XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Get me a Fringe Weaver instead, will #you?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Alright.[XS:ph,20][XS:mix,1][E:28][STOPLIP:]
[RES:][XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] One Fringe Weaver.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] What kind of memories do you have with #rum?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Nothing you need to worry about.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Okay.[XS:ph,22][XS:mix,0][E:29][STOPLIP:]
[RES:][XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Here.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almaface,serious][XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Very funny. [STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Do you wanna see me take my clothes #off while complaining that "Global warming's #a bitch?"[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] The what now?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] What I mean is, I won't drink this.[STOPLIP:]
[SHOW:280,sprite_dana][XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] Then excuse me while I take it off #your hands...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almaface,worried][SHAKE:][XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] WHA?! Eh? S-Sure...[STOPLIP:]

[XS:almaface,sigh][XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] At times like these, I feel like I #should've ordered the rum instead.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] You can't fail at pouring something #from a bottle... right?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] ...[XS:ph,22][XS:mix,0][E:31][STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Some bottle of Absinthe I found at #home.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] It's unlabeled, so it's not that #valuable.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almaface,][XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Do you know how to serve it?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I'd usually need some kind of spoon #to perch a cube of sugar, but the station #does all that for me...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Do you want some Absinthe then?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Sure, let's try it.[XS:mix,1][XS:ph,21][E:32][STOPLIP:]
[RES:][XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Careful, it's a strong drink.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almaface,smug][XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] I'll tell you if it's strong or not.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almaface,sigh][XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] ...and indeed it is, holy shit.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Are you okay?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almaface,][XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] I'll be fine. I've had worse in #college.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] What did you do in college by the way?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Jaeger Bombs, Giant Taco Pizzas, a cute #student teacher...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] We all did a cute student teacher at #some point in college. I'm talking about #studies, woman.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almaface,smile][XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] I know, I know. I'm a computer #engineering dropout.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Dropout?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almaface,][XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] I was getting fed up with the whole #"make programs for other people" thing.[STOPLIP:]

[RES:][XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Here.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Man, that bartending station messes #up drinks.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] This looks like anything but Absinthe.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] ...[XS:ph,22][XS:mix,0][E:34][STOPLIP:]
[XS:almaface,smile][XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Alright, now's my turn to ask #questions.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] About what?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almaface,][XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] What kind of family is your family?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Well...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I'm an only child. My mom and my dad #split amicably.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] My mom is a violinist, so she was #always away from home with the orchestra.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I spent most of my time with my dad, #my aunt, and my grandpa.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Aside from that, I'd say my childhood #was quite uneventful.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Huh... didn't you get something like #your mom's artistic vein or something?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I played the violin until I was around #16, I think.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] What made you stop? [STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I don't know. I just kinda said #"That's it!" one day and stopped.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] What about cousins or the rest of your #family?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I see very little of them, actually.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Mainly because my dad moved away from #most of them. Most of my mom's family live #in France to boot.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] So your mom's French?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Yup.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Can you speak French?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Mon aeroglisseur est plein d'anguilles.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almaface,smile][XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Ooooh, what does that mean?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Rubbish? I don't know. I can't speak #French.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I did try though, but college started #and I stopped taking classes.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Funny thing, I actually have a cousin #from my mom's side that lives close by.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] But you'll be hard-pressed to make me #spot him in a crowd.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almaface,][XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] You're kinda lucky, you know? All of #my mom's side of the family lives here.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] The chances of me meeting someone I'm #related to on the street are ridiculously #high.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] But yeah, that's the primer on my #family. Nothing too interesting, sadly.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Your mom's a French violinist and you #call that uninteresting?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I'm wondering if your family has ever #made a fuss about you being a hacker.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] "Hacker" makes it sound too exotic. #It's like if I called you a mixologist.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Please don't, ever. Sounds like #something somebody would say to make #"bartender" sound sophisticated.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almaface,smile][XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] See?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almaface,][XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] I mean, "hacker" is a good way to #summarize it, but it's not the best. #I'm a security consultant.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] People want to find flaws in the #security of their systems and I do my best #to pinpoint where it breaks.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Be it Glitch City or anywhere else in #the world. They need security, I'm their #woman.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] You've told quite a few stories about #cracking into databases to retrieve info #like some sort of mercenary though.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almaface,confused][XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] ...that doesn't change the fact that #"hacker" is not the best term to use.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Makes the whole thing sound illegal #when it's actually an honest job.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Didn't you tell me you once secured #some incriminating pics from a guy's #cellphone?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almaface,sigh][XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] A MOSTLY honest job. Sheesh.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] What made you become a hacker, by the #way?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almaface,][XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] I've always been a sucker for puzzles.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Even as a kid, I always had a sudoku or #crossword with me.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] But at some point, they started feeling #kinda same-y.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] So... when I started college, I took a #course on system security. It felt like the #kind of puzzle I was looking for.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] I mean, there are all kinds of things #involved in breaching net security. [STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] You need to attack the stuff from #different angles.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] And it's something that's always #evolving. The whole point of everything #is to strengthen security.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Every time you think you've got the #gist of it, they change everything.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] So it's kinda like an always-evolving #puzzle.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] A puzzle I help make harder at that.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Huh... I didn't think about it that #way.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] It is less action-y than what movies #make it up to be, though...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] No real-time frantic typing. Nothing #like that.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almaface,smile][XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Still, seeing my code break through #something ... It's an amazing feeling.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Will you have anything else?[XS:ph,23][E:35][STOPLIP:]
[XS:almaface,][XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Give me something non-alcoholic. I #wanna play it safe with the whole Absinthe #thing.[XS:ph,24][XS:mix,1][E:36][STOPLIP:]

[XS:almaface,][XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] You know, sometimes, I feel you know #me better than all the guys I've been #with.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I feel compelled to ask how many guys #you've been with.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] If we're talking about serious, #long-lasting relationships? Just a #handful. [STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Casual dating and one night stands on #the other hand...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Why do that? Why go through so many #people?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almaface,serious][XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Hey, it's not like I take every guy I #see to bed. Who do you take me for?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] You know what I mean.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almaface,][XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Yeah, yeah...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almaface,sigh][XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] That's... something I don't have an #answer to, actually.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Maybe I'm just a romantic that loves #having someone to cuddle with... Maybe I #just get lonely.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Maybe there's a deep-seated #psychological reason behind it all. Maybe #I'm just horny.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Whatever the case, I just kinda feel #like it's a quest I shouldn't give up yet.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Well, it's not like I'm too different.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Until recently, I too had a streak of #one night stands.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almaface,][XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Really? What made you stop?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] ...reasons.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] What is it? Tell me![STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Maybe later, it's time for my break. #Come with me.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Huh? Why? Can't I stay here away from #the cold?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I don't trust you. You could fit a #bottle between those tits of yours, and #nobody would know.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almaface,smug][XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Why not just say "please come and #let's keep talking at the back of the #bar?"[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] You got the message. Now, come.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almaface,smile][XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Guide me then.[XS:ph,27][E:42][STOPLIP:]
[XS:almaface,][XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Say, Jill. What's the worst that could #happen if you don't get your drinks right?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Well... people have the right to not #give me money.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] If they don't pay for it, I don't get #my bonus.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] No bonus means less money and no #tips... which doesn't help because I #have to pay bills.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Oh, I see...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Do you have to make an effort to pay #your bills?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Nope.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] You have no idea how much I hate you #right now.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almaface,confused][XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Well, my job pays pretty well, and I'm #not the kind to spend too much on things #other than food and bills.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Maybe maintenance on my hands and new #equipment, but aside from that...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almaface,smile][XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Oh, I know! If you have trouble with #your bills, why not live with me?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] We could be roommates![STOPLIP:]

[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Moving my stuff through the stairs #because the elevator's broken...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Having to move my liquor collection...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Nevermind the fact that my cat's a #shut-in that got VERY upset the one time I #moved some furniture around.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] The idea of moving just gives me a #headache.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almaface,sigh][XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] You shouldn't take things so seriously #when I say them, you know?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I don't, but I've thought about it #before.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Now, I need some air. I'm gonna take #my break. You wanna come?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almaface,][XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Are you inviting me to the back of the #bar? You should invite me to dinner first.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Every minute you waste making jokes is #time taken from my break.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almaface,smile][XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Fine, let's go.[XS:ph,27][E:43][STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Boss, I'm taking my break. Call me #if anyone comes in.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] Sure, sure.[XS:ph,28][XS:log,0][E:44][STOPLIP:]
[SHOW:185,sprite_alma][XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] It sure is chilly out there...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] It's kinda refreshing.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] The hobo out there seems like a nice #guy.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Billy Vine? Yeah, he's a cool guy. #Very respectful.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Apparently he got into some legal #trouble and that's why he's like that.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Really?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] He could also just be a very nice #crackhead, though.[XS:ph,2][E:45][STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] So... are you gonna tell me?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] What?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Why did you stop having one night #stands and all that?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I started working here.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I don't know. After I started working #here, I felt like I didn't need to do that #anymore.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Maybe I was just lonely?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almaface,smile][XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Aww, how cute.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] ...I also got fed up with everyone #complaining about me smoking on the bed.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almaface,sigh][XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] You're gonna burn the bed with that.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Yeah, yeah...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almaface,smile][XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] If you ever need a hug, just let me #know. You don't need one night stands for #that.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] *sigh*[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almaface,][XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] You left me thinking though. What's #your... thing? Your fetish.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] You strike me as the kind to have an #"overpower" fetish of sorts.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] You wanna feel totally swayed by #someone. Have consensual, yet forceful sex #with your partner.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] ...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Did I hit bullseye?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] You have quite the imagination, girl.[XS:ph,3][E:46][STOPLIP:]
[XS:almaface,][XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] I have a cousin that lives like a #hobo, actually.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Really?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almaface,sigh][XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] It's a bit complicated though.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Problem is, his family has tried to #get him to live with them, but his pride #won't let him accept their help.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] He'd rather live on the streets for #some reason.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] You can't tell with some people, #sadly.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Why did he become a hobo in the first #place?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almaface,][XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Bad investments and debts. Bank #evicted him from his house.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Oh...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] It's a serious problem because he has #epileptic attacks but refuses to take his #medication.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] I just don't get what's up with him.[XS:ph,3][E:47][STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Are you ok? You look winded...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almaface,drunk][XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Um... it's not windedness, it's... #light-headedness.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] I'm a bit dizzy, but nothing I can't #handle.[XS:ph,4][E:48][STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] Hoooooneeeeeyyyyy. Some #seeeerviiiiice heeeeeeeeere.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I'm here. Don't scream.[STOPLIP:]
[SHOW:280,sprite_doro][SHOW:120,sprite_alma][XS:doroface,smug][XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] Oho? Were you two hanging at the #back of the bar? What kind of stuff were #you doing?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Just talking.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] Is that what they call it these #days?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] ...what do you want?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:doroface,][XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] Something soft, something sweet. #No alcohol, please.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Wouldn't it be the same if you just #grabbed a soda from a vending machine?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:doroface,cry][XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] But I like you-u-u-u-u-u-u-u.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] Do you dislike my presence so much?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] ...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Sweet and non-alcoholic, you say? #Alright...[XS:ph,5][XS:mix,1][E:49][STOPLIP:]
[RES:][XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Here. Like you asked.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:doroface,smug][XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] See? You don't get this kind of #treatment from vending machines![STOPLIP:]
[XS:doroface,][XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] ...unless you're Lawrence. [STOPLIP:]
[XS:doroface,think][XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] But he has this weird idea that #good service is the same as selling lukewarm #cans of cola.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Lawrence?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:doroface,][XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] A friend of mine. He's a vending #machine.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Oh...[XS:mix,0][XS:ph,6][E:50][STOPLIP:]
[RES:][XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Here you are.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:doroface,][XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] You know... This kind of treatment #is not precisely good for sales.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] Did I catch you in a bad mood?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] No no...[XS:mix,0][XS:ph,6][E:51][STOPLIP:]
[XS:doroface,][XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] Oh, but how impolite of me.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Hm?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:doroface,pachi][XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] I'm lovely and my name's Dorothy, #Dorothy Haze. Nice to meet you![STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Oh. I'm Alma. The pleasure's mine.[XS:ph,7][E:52][STOPLIP:]
[XS:almaface,][XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Dorothy, you say?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] Eeyup, why?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almaface,smile][XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Nothing, I guess I've heard about you #before.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:doroface,][XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] Really? What kind of stuff? Tell #me! Tell me![STOPLIP:]
[XS:almaface,concern][XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Mostly about your... umm... pluckiness.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] And here I was thinking it was #because I'm a sex worker.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almaface,sigh][XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] ...so much for trying to be subtle.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:doroface,angry][XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] Hey, I take pride in my job. #Otherwise I wouldn't be doing it.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almaface,][XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Isn't it dangerous?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] I know how to take care of myself, #thank you very much.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:doroface,][XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] Where do you work, Alma?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] I'm a hacker.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] Really? A full-fledged hacker?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] Not the kind that sees a computer #logged into some account and says that's #hacking, right?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] No, of course not.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] I've always been curious about how #being a hacker works.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] Do you just start typing really fast #while waiting for something to happen?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almaface,sigh][XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] No...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almaface,][XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] I can explain, but I don't know if #you'll get it.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] We won't know until you try, right?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] Last time I said that I had to jam #the plastic replica of a halogen light #bulb up a grown man's ass. [STOPLIP:]
[XS:doroface,pachi][XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] It was a success![STOPLIP:]
[XS:almaface,][XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] *ahem* Okay then... let me try to explain #in general how it works.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Let's say I have to retrieve #information from a company's database.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:doroface,][XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] Alright![STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] First I do some research on the target. #OS, servers, how the information is stored #and all that.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] There've been a couple of occasions #where I had to go in blind, but they're the #exception rather than the rule.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] First, I secure things from my side. [STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] I start working behind proxies, #websites, and through other more vulnerable #computers I find on the way.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] Uh-huh...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] After that I start testing the #networks. [STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] I go through the basic protocols, try #known exploits as long as they don't #trigger any alarm.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Once I've tested the ground, the fun #starts.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] I go through all the security protocols #and look to bypass them. [STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Sometimes I have to look deeper into #the code for the password itself.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] I-I see...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Then, when I'm finally in, I go and #retrieve user privileges.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] After that, I go and try to become a #super-user and get what I need.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] H-How... do you do that?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Well, there are a couple of ways...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] I can use a premade program to hack #into an already existing account.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] I can use info someone already gave #me...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] But the usual way is using a buffer #overflow.[STOPLIP:]
[SHOW:280,doro_shake][XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] B-Buff...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] What happens next?! WHAT HAPPENS #NEXT?![STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] I... create a backdoor in the system #before leaving and covering my tracks...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] ...I-I can't...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:doroface,wah][XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] I can't handle it anymore![STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] Alma, hack me! Hack me like you've #never hacked anything before!![STOPLIP:]
[XS:almaface,confused][XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] E-Eh?![STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] Make my buffer overflow! Create a #backdoor in me! Escalate your user #privileges! Find flaws in my securityyyyy!![STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] ...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] ...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:doroface,think][XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] S-Sorry... I got carried away.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] No shit. What happened?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:doroface,][XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] Have you seen those movies or #books where a couple does something like #paint a picture or cook... [STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] ...but they make it sound like #they're having sex instead?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almaface,][XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Suggestive scenes, yeah.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] Well, that whole thing was kinda #like that for me.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Really?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:doroface,think][XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] I guess humans don't really get it #because their minds don't upload to networks #or anything...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:doroface,][XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] But trust me, if you recorded #yourself giving a REALLY detailed #explanation in a really sexy voice... [STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] You'd make millions. Horny Lilim #are an unexploited market.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almaface,][XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] I see...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Oh, looks like my ride is here.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Your ride?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almaface,smile][XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Yup, my brother-in-law came to look #for me.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Is it alright to ask that from him?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] It's okay. I've known him since pre-#school. It just so happened that he got #married to my sister.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almaface,][XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Hey Dorothy, you need a ride?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] Can you drop me by Third #Street?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Sure, it's on the way.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:doroface,pachi][XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] Yay~ I'll take your offer then.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] Bye, honey![STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Later, Jill.[XS:almahide,1][XS:dorohide,1][STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Take care.[XS:ph,1][XS:client,3][E:53][STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Dorothy... are you that kiddie #sexbot?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:doroface,pachi][XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] The one and only.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] If I find another DFC-72 with the #number 24601, I have the legal right to #put it out of commission.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Oh, that'd make a nice movie.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Are you okay?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Light-headed, a bit weird, but #everything's good aside from that.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Say, Dorothy, you must have quite the #stories, eh?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] !!![STOPLIP:]
[XS:doroface,smug][XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] Hehe...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:doroface,][XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] Well, there was this one time when #a woman dressed me like a doll.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] She spent an hour putting clothes #on me before slowly undressing me.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] She asked me to stay as still as #possible. I was actually falling asleep.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:doroface,think][XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] But damn... that girl had very big #fists and I woke up in a shocking manner, #if you know what I mean.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] It's a bummer I ended up sore after #that, because she was awesome with her #tongue.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] On one hand, I needed minor #maintenance after that session. Fisting #was never my forte.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:doroface,pachi][XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] On the other, she gave me really #cute dresses![STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] ...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] There was this one guy that was really #into BDSM.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] He asked me to tie him up and started #giving me orders on how to be his #dominatrix.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almaface,drunkconcern][XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] It was... kinda boring, you know? There #was almost no fucking involved. [STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] I got that far with the guy looking for #sex and he instead wanted me to whip him and #drop candle wax on him.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Worse still, he seemed to be really #getting off on it. [STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Almost reminded me of my second #boyfriend and his penchant to ask me to do #all the work in bed.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] It either is not my thing or I just #haven't met the right person to show me how #BDSM is done.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] ...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] Well, one time, some guy hired me #because he wanted to teach his son a lesson.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] Apparently, he was getting too horny #with some girl younger than him. He was 18 #and the girl was 13 or 14.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] His father thought that making him #spend some time with me would scare him or #something. [STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] I'm not a therapist and got paid, #so whatever...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:doroface,smug][XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] But oh, little did his father #know. I left the poor guy asking for #more.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:doroface,][XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] Ultimately, it worked though. #He was left "wanting girls with more #experience" or something like that.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] ...*sigh*[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almaface,drunk][XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] When I was 16, I had the hots for this #one guy from a neighboring city.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] So, one day I decided to lure him into #my room and have some fun with him.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] But my great grandma was visiting us #that day, and what do I find out? We both #called her Nana at the same time![STOPLIP:]
[XS:almaface,drunkconcern][XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Turns out he was my cousin. And I #wasn't gonna take risks with inbreeding.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Maybe it was for the best. He didn't #really get old in a graceful way.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Fat, bald and not even a nice person #to boot. [STOPLIP:]
[XS:doroface,pachi][XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] Oh! Oh! There was this time with a #donkey...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Alright, stop.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] Eh?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I can take everything else, but I have #to draw a line somewhere. [STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] And that line is drawn in regards to #anything involving sexual acts between #humanoids and non-humanoids.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:doroface,][XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] But you don't know what the story's #like.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Okay, let's hear it.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] Well, the guy showed me a stable #where there was a donkey in some sort of #lift and...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Okay, that's enough.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] But I didn't reach the part where #the donkey...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Stop it. Shut up. Don't think about #continuing that particular story.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:doroface,angry][XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] Fiiiiiine.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:doroface,][XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] ...on second thought, maybe you're #right.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] "What happens in Neo-Tijuana, stays #in Neo Tijuana".[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almaface,drunk][XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Oh! My ride's outside.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Your ride?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Yup, my bro-in-law came to pick me up.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Did you really tell him to come and #get you?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] There's no problem. He and I have #been partners in crime since we were #toddlers.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] It just so happens that he married my #sister.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Hey, Dorothy, you need to go somewhere? #I wanna hear the rest of this donkey story.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] Sure! Can you drop me by Third #Street?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Yup, it's on the way actually.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:almatalk,1][C:14]Alma:[C:C] Later, Jill.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] Bye, honey![XS:dorohide,1][XS:almahide,1][STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Yeah, yeah... take care.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] (Neo-Tijuana...)[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] (Wasn't the Neo prefix added during #the rebuild after the Tequila Conflict #with BTC?)[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] (Or was that New Mexico?)[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] (It was related to Mexico and had a #prefix added but I can't for the life of #me remember what it was.)[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] (I should check when I have the time.)[XS:ph,1][XS:client,3][E:54][STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] (The street seems... noisy.)[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] (Oh, a client.)[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Hello, welcome to Valhalla. What can #I get-...[STOPLIP:]
[SHOW:185,sprite_virgilio][XS:virgiliotalk,1][C:29]???:[C:C] Such a... small yet comfortable place.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:virgiliotalk,1][C:29]???:[C:C] Truly, an oasis of spiritual drinks in #the midst of the suburban desert.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:virgiliotalk,1][C:29]???:[C:C] A place where lost and corrupt souls can #gather to forget their troubles for a while.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:virgiliotalk,1][C:29]???:[C:C] A nest where everyone from the most #pathetic scum to the vilest trash-junkie #can just sit to kill their insides.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:virgilioface,smug][XS:virgiliotalk,1][C:29]???:[C:C] Truly, a real Persona Non Grata.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:virgiliotalk,1][C:29]???:[C:C] That's Latin for mysterious place, by #the way. I'm so smart and philosophical.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] (Alright! We got ourselves a Persona #Non Grata here...)[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] What will you have then?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:virgilioface,][XS:virgiliotalk,1][C:29]???:[C:C] Seventeen.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] E-Excuse me?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:virgiliotalk,1][C:29]???:[C:C] I said Seventeen. Seven plus teen.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] What does that mean?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:virgiliotalk,1][C:29]???:[C:C] What does it mean to YOU?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Just to be sure... 17 is about the #drink you want, right?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:virgiliotalk,1][C:29]???:[C:C] Only if you want it to be.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] ...[XS:ph,2][XS:mix,1][E:55][STOPLIP:]
[RES:][XS:virgiliotalk,1][C:29]???:[C:C] Okay, explain.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] The total of ingredients here add up #to 17.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:virgiliotalk,1][C:29]???:[C:C] Beautiful.[XS:ph,3][XS:mix,0][E:56][STOPLIP:]
[RES:][XS:virgiliotalk,1][C:29]???:[C:C] How is this a Seventeen?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] It isn't. You said 17 would only be #related to your drink if I thought it #was... and I think it isn't.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:virgiliotalk,1][C:29]???:[C:C] Ooooh, you subverted my expectations by #taking me literally! Sneaky.[XS:ph,3][XS:mix,0][E:57][STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] And what brings you here? Mister...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:virgiliotalk,1][C:29]Virgilio:[C:C] I'm Armandio. Virgilio Armandio.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:virgiliotalk,1][C:29]Virgilio:[C:C] See? I introduced myself using the #Asian order because that's a lot more #polite.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Riiiiiiight.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:virgilioface,smug][XS:virgiliotalk,1][C:29]Virgilio:[C:C] And I came here looking for an... #otherworldly experience.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:virgiliotalk,1][C:29]Virgilio:[C:C] I was passing by and saw this place #is called Valhalla.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:virgilioface,][XS:virgiliotalk,1][C:29]Virgilio:[C:C] I wanna see the souls of resting #warriors, the wounded spirits of noble #souls.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:virgiliotalk,1][C:29]Virgilio:[C:C] The golden hall full of #never-ending banquets, the lively Valkyries #looking over them...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] ...we have some arcade machines on the #corner.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:virgilioface,dissapoint][XS:virgiliotalk,1][C:29]Virgilio:[C:C] No no no... you're taking me too #literally.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:virgiliotalk,1][C:29]Virgilio:[C:C] You see, I'm being poetic. I'm #giving a mystical air to a mundane affair.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:virgilioface,][XS:virgiliotalk,1][C:29]Virgilio:[C:C] I wanted to see drunk people, I #wanted to see waitresses and food.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:virgiliotalk,1][C:29]Virgilio:[C:C] I wanted to see the bar in all of #its decadent glory.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Well, you're out of luck. Today's been #quite the slow day.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Not that I'm very surprised, given #how things have been going in the streets, #though...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:virgilioface,dissapoint][XS:virgiliotalk,1][C:29]Virgilio:[C:C] Humans are a nasty bunch, that much #is true.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:virgiliotalk,1][C:29]Virgilio:[C:C] Making a ruckus, coming at each #other... but that's to be expected from the #only mammal to kill its own.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I'm no zoologist, but I'm pretty sure #that's not the case.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:virgilioface,serious][XS:virgiliotalk,1][C:29]Virgilio:[C:C] Oh yeah? Then give me an example, #not-zoologist bartender.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Like I said, I don't know exact #details, I just know that isn't right.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] If memory serves right, once a lion #takes over a pride, every cub born from #another lion is killed, or something.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:virgiliotalk,1][C:29]Virgilio:[C:C] Pffft... "Takes over a pride", you #can't take over pride. Pride isn't a #tangible thing. [STOPLIP:]
[XS:virgilioface,dissapoint][XS:virgiliotalk,1][C:29]Virgilio:[C:C] You need to stop making things up, #not-zoologist bartender.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] ...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:virgilioface,][XS:virgiliotalk,1][C:29]Virgilio:[C:C] But going back on topic, do you #know what the number seventeen means?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] The atomic number of chlorine?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:virgiliotalk,1][C:29]Virgilio:[C:C] No, and Chloe is a name, not a #number, you know?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] The group where halogens are in the #periodic table?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:virgiliotalk,1][C:29]Virgilio:[C:C] Stop making up words like "halogens", #"periodic", and "table".[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Okay then. I give up.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:virgiliotalk,1][C:29]Virgilio:[C:C] Seventeen is us.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Eh?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:virgiliotalk,1][C:29]Virgilio:[C:C] Every human has seventeen pairs #of chromosomes. That number is the whole #foundation of you and me.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] It's... 23.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:virgilioface,serious][XS:virgiliotalk,1][C:29]Virgilio:[C:C] What is?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Humans have 23 pairs of chromosomes. #Not 17.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:virgiliotalk,1][C:29]Virgilio:[C:C] Well, they're both primal numbers, #so it's the same idea.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] (Primal...)[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] ...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Do you want anything else?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:virgilioface,smug][XS:virgiliotalk,1][C:29]Virgilio:[C:C] I'd like a single plum, floating #in perfume, served in a man's hat.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Okay.[XS:ph,4][XS:mix,1][E:58][STOPLIP:]
[RES:][XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Here.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:virgilioface,][XS:virgiliotalk,1][C:29]Virgilio:[C:C] Ha! You didn't... [XS:virgilioface,serious]wait, you did.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Enjoy~[STOPLIP:]
[XS:virgiliotalk,1][C:29]Virgilio:[C:C] I will, I'll drink this... umm... #perfume.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:virgiliotalk,1][C:29]Virgilio:[C:C] ...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] ...you don't really have to...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:virgiliotalk,1][C:29]Virgilio:[C:C] Yeah, that'd be silly. You win #this round, bartender.[XS:ph,5][XS:mix,0][E:59][STOPLIP:]
[RES:][XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] ...hold on, what?![STOPLIP:]
[XS:virgilioface,smug][XS:virgiliotalk,1][C:29]Virgilio:[C:C] Ohoho... I didn't expect you to #be able to deliver it, you know?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Um... what?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:virgiliotalk,1][C:29]Virgilio:[C:C] I asked you for an impossible #order to prove the feebleness of the human #condition.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:virgiliotalk,1][C:29]Virgilio:[C:C] No matter what you do, you'll #never have all the answers and resources you #need.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:virgiliotalk,1][C:29]Virgilio:[C:C] You can make as many drinks as you #want, but you would never be able to #deliver that ridiculous order.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] ...you still have to pay for this, you #know?[XS:ph,5][XS:mix,0][E:60][STOPLIP:]
[XS:virgilioface,][XS:virgiliotalk,1][C:29]Virgilio:[C:C] Hey, bartender. Have you ever #thought about death?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] How?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:virgiliotalk,1][C:29]Virgilio:[C:C] What if we're already dead? Both #of us?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] ...what?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:virgiliotalk,1][C:29]Virgilio:[C:C] What tells you I even existed #before I entered that door?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:virgiliotalk,1][C:29]Virgilio:[C:C] How can you assure me that this #"reality" is real and we were not, in fact, #in heaven or hell all along?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:virgiliotalk,1][C:29]Virgilio:[C:C] What if everything up to this point #is just some stupid story written by an #unemployed 20-something in his room?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] (I could punch you to make you feel #reality.)[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I don't care about any of that, #actually.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] This reality's real for me and that's #all that matters.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:virgilioface,dissapoint][XS:virgiliotalk,1][C:29]Virgilio:[C:C] Such a close-minded way of seeing #things.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:virgiliotalk,1][C:29]Virgilio:[C:C] You need to... get away from the #factual facts. Open your mind to things #beyond your reach.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:virgiliotalk,1][C:29]Virgilio:[C:C] You'll never reach enlightenment #if you don't start...[STOPLIP:]
[CRASH:][C:29]Virgilio:[C:C][XS:virgilioface,][XS:virgiliotalk,1] The Habanera has started! It #means the "twilight of the gods" in German, #by the way.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:virgiliotalk,1][C:29]Virgilio:[C:C] Well, you're on your own, #bartender. Enjoy your new world order![XS:virgiliohide,1][STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Um... what?[CRASH:][STOPLIP:]
[SHOW:185,sprite_dana][XS:danaface,worry][XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] A couple of nearby cars exploded, it #seems.[STOPLIP:]

[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Let me take a look out the window.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:danaface,][XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] Be careful.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] ...[BANG:][STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I see lots of flashes in the distance. #Most likely gunshots.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:danaface,worry][XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] Jill! Come here a sec.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] What?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:news,1][CHANNEL:2]Newscaster: ...about 5GB of reports proving #that several White Knight squads have been #used to cover... [STOPLIP:]

[XS:jilltalk,1]Newscaster: We're receiving reports of #several units going rogue...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1]Newscaster: ...and using their weapons to hunt #down anyone they find on the street.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1]Newscaster: Several counter-terrorism #forces from neighboring cities have been #dispatched in order to subdue... [STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1]Newscaster: ...the crazed units after a plea #from the vice-president.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1]Newscaster: We're still waiting for a #declaration from Zaibatsu Corp's CEO #on the subject, but until then...[BANG:][STOPLIP:][CHANGE:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Things are ugly in and outside of that #bank, it seems.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] I'd recommend you stay here tonight. #It's too dangerous to even think about #going outside.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] What if they break in?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:danaface,][XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] They won't. Even then, the bar has #quite the security system.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] And I'll be here protecting you, as #an added bonus.[STOPLIP:]
[BANG:][XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] *sigh* ...yeah, I guess I'll stay #tonight.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:danaface,][XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] I'll get you the spare mattress I have. #Do you mind sleeping in my office?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] No, I guess it's fine.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] Good.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] *sigh* Let's hope everything gets #solved by the morning...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] I'll have Zankantou on hand, just in #case.[STOPLIP:]

[SHOW:185,sprite_dana][XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] Rise and shine.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] *yawn* G'mornin'.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] It's 11 a.m., though.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] That's morning for me on the #weekends... and any other day. How's #everything outside?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] Still noisy, but forces have been #deployed to take care of most of 'em at #least.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] How so?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] Zaibatsu Corp's President is pleading #with "anyone" to stop the rogue White #Knights.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] Neighboring city forces were deployed #quickly and have subdued most of the #opposition.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] There have also been reports of White #Knights just... freezing. Like they were #petrified somehow.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] You make it sound like some god #suddenly decided to put everything in #place.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:danaface,closedsmile][XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] Well, I'm just glad no bullets are #flying in and out of the whole building.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] Sure, there're still some bad apples #out and it's not really safe yet, but it #was worse last night.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:danaface,worry][XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] There also seems to be a civilian #force lynching any White Knight they spot.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] So not only are the White Knights a #problem, regular folks are on edge too.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] (I wonder if Sei is okay...)[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Should we be worried about Gil?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:danaface,][XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] That kid knows how to take care of #himself.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] I'm sure that... whatever it is that #he's doing, he's safe.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:danaface,][XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] Dare I say even safer wherever he is #than here.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I sure hope so.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Are we gonna work today?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:danaface,][XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] Nah, things are too nasty right now. #Let's take the Sunday off.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Oh, alright.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] Say, do you want me to help you get #to your apartment?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Actually yeah, I'd appreciate that.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] Okay then. Let me lock things up and #we'll go.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] We'll grab something for lunch on the #way.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Sounds good.[XS:ph,2][E:2][STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] Aaaaaaaaand here we are.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Home sweet home. Thanks a lot.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Hey Boss, wanna hang out for a bit?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] Hm?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Yeah, grab a Beer, chill out for a #bit... Mostly to thank you for helping me.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] Well, I don't have much to do anyway. #So yeah, sure.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] I did tell you you should invite me #to your apartment sometime, didn't I?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Oh, yeah. You did.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] What worries me a bit is that Beer #always leads to something else.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] To more Beer?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] I was gonna say, "To one of us going #through the Spanish announcers' table."[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] But I think we're safe here.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Come on in, then.[STOPLIP:]

[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Thanks.[STOPLIP:][XS:codechide,1]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] Say, how is the chilly weather #treating you?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] It gets cold from time to time but #nothing the kotatsu and the heater can't #fix.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Oh right, Boss. You're not very good #with the cold, are you?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] You know it...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] You didn't bring your jacket here #either.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] Yeah, I left it at home when going to #the bar yesterday. [STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] It wasn't that cold and I didn't #expect to spend the night at the bar.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Would you like a sweater or something?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] Oh, don't mind me.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I insist. I have this hoodie from some #time ago and it was too big for me.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] Why buy it then?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] It was dirt-cheap![STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] Right...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] Wait... w-where did you get this one?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Dunno. Some flea market ages ago. Why?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] Nothing. It's just like one I had many #years ago.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] What happened to it?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] Too much use, it just... ripped.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I see...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] You can keep it if you want, I never #use it anyway.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] Um... we'll see.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Come to think of it, how old are you, #Boss?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] I'm eternally seventeen![STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Fair enough. Seventeen plus how much?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] Seventeen plus I'd have to cut your #tongue if you knew.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] ...alright.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Let me go change into something more #comfortable.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] Take your time.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] ...[STOPLIP:]
[SHOW:0,codec_fore]Fore: ...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] ...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] Say Jill, there's a blue-eyed mass of #black fur glaring in my general direction.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Hm? Oh, that's just Fore. He's just #wary of any new visitors. Cats will be cats, #I guess.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] He'll warm up quickly though. Just #give him time.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] He's unusual-looking. Blue eyes on a #black cat. They usually have green.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Yeah, weird, huh?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] At first I thought they were like that #because he was small but they never changed.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:codechide,1][XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Do you have any pets, Boss?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] Back at home we had a bear.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Ah, I se-... what?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] Good ol' Bosco. He kept intruders away #better than any dog.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] R-Right...[STOPLIP:]
[SHOW:0,codec_pic][XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] Hm? This picture here isn't something #you see everyday.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] What? Me taking such a sappy pic?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] No, a framed picture on printed paper. #It's so... vintage.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] Who are these?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] That's... um... [STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] The one on the right is Lenore, my... #ex-girlfriend. The one on the left is #Gabrielle, her sister.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] Huh. Is this pic recent or...?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Actually, that one's from 3-4 years #ago.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] ...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] You look exactly the same.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I'm only 27. What did you expect? #That's why they say kids are the ones #that get old.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] I thought it was recent because you #don't usually see people displaying #pictures of their exes so openly.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] ...let alone a printed and framed one.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] Did you two break up on good terms, #then? You even hesitated a bit when #calling her your ex.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] *sigh* Let's just say that everything #ended with both of us saying mean things.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] ...and me storming out of her house, #breaking a couple of things on the way #out.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] We never broke up formally... and I #guess I still have feelings for her.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I just... went away, haven't said #a word since.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] Really? It's... hard to picture you #doing such a thing. And you look so happy #in the pic.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] Why have her pic out like this then?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I just couldn't get my mind off #something that Alma said to me.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] About missing having the warmth of #someone else pressed against your side...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Using them as a pillow, mixing your #perfume with theirs.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Putting your head in their chest, #listening to their breathing as they pet #your head.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Dozing off knowing they're there, #watching you. Protecting you...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I don't know. I felt nostalgic... then #miserable.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] ...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] I'll... just put this away.[STOPLIP:][XS:codechide,1]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] ...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I've been meaning to apologize, but I #feel like it's too late now.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Whenever I go out, there's this fear #in the back of my head that I'll meet her #in the street.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I just don't know if I could face #her again. Let alone talk to her.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] ...I'd be a mess.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] It's never too late to apologize, #Jill.[STOPLIP:]

[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] Hm? What's that on the table?[STOPLIP:][SHOW:0,codec_letter]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] ...![STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] Looks like an enve-...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] It's nothing! NOTHING! Now, please #give that to me.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] ...lope. Alright.[STOPLIP:][XS:codechide,1]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] I saw nothing, don't worry.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] ...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] A-Anyway... Let's grab some Beers![STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] Guide me.[XS:ph,3][XS:keeptext,0][E:3][STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] Damn, you have lots of Beer.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Well, the BTC gives me discounts #and a point card I can use every time #I buy their alcohol.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] With that, Beer is actually the #cheapest drink I can get.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] Is there any difference between #the drinks at the bar and these?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] The drinks at the bar are more #addictive, flavorful and also stronger #than the ones they sell in stores.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] And besides, the one in the bar #is more of a Double IPA. This #one is more of a Pilsner.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] In English, please.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] This one's lighter in color and #lighter in flavor.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] Dunno, it doesn't taste like a #lighter to me.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] *pffffft*[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] Is this one made with that... #um... what was the name of the base #liquid you use at the bar again?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Nutriogenic Dichometrical #Lydogenol, or NDL.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] It was a supplement or something, #right?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] It was an experimental fluid they #created to replace water when the #Maiden Kiss polluted water supplies.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] The effects of pollution turned #out to be temporary, so NDL never went #into mass production. [STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] But the BTC still commissioned it #for use in bars.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] And is this one made with it?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Let's see... yup, here it is, #near the end: NDL and corn starch.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] Corn starch?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] It serves as a stabilizer, if I #remember correctly. They need it for #packaged drinks.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] I see. And I just realized #something.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] What?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] You're a nerd, Jill.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Guilty as charged.[XS:ph,4][E:4][STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] There's my alcohol collection if #you feel like getting anything else.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] Those bottles over there?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I can't afford a fancy fridge or #whatever for them so I have to put #them in plain sight.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I'm guessing if some authority on #alcohol came in here, he'd stab me for #crimes against beverages or something.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Anyway, many of them are still #drinkable. [STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I could get you some of the #Absinthe I brought to the bar if you #want.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] I'm not an Oscar Wilde kind of #person, sadly. I'm more of a Theodore #Roosevelt girl.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I have a teddy bear on my closet. #But I don't think you can drink it.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] Nah, that's what I-... wait, you #do?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I'm not ashamed of Doctor Fluff but it #just so happens that I have a #cat. [STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] And I don't want the bear's #fillings spilled all over the place.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] Oh...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] Anyway, Beer's fine. Don't worry.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] If you say so.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] Where did that collection come #from anyways?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Calling it a "Collection" is too #generous, I think.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I got it from my grandpa. He made #a will where the only thing stipulated #was that I got them.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] Heh, that's sweet.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I've already downed some of it #over the years though. Half of them #have colored water instead of alcohol.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] I guess you'd need to be an expert #or something to notice the difference.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Yeah, I make sure the water's the #right color though.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Bottomline, if you wanna taste #anything from it, let me know.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] You're too kind.[XS:ph,5][E:5][STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I still have that bottle of rum #somewhere around. Do you want some of #it?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] Will you have some too?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Not really, no.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] Then leave it like that. I'm not #letting you drink Beer alone. That's #not how drinking with friends works.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Do you consider me a friend then, #Boss?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] Why wouldn't I?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Dunno, what with being my boss and #all. I was never too sure.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] Well, in case you had any doubts: #Yes, I consider you one of my best #friends.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] Besides, you and Gil are always #so diligent and responsible that I'm #boss in name only anyway.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] That's good to know.[XS:ph,5][E:6][STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] On a side note, it surprises me #you kept that poster of me in the #room. [STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] And even more that you hung it in #plain sight.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] When I gave it to you, it was more #or less a joke, you know?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Does it make you uncomfortable?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] If it doesn't make you #uncomfortable, why would it make ME #uncomfortable? It's my own face.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] I'm still wondering why you did it #though.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Aside from filling an empty spot #in the wall, I don't really know. I #thought it was funny too.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I guess it's like if someone gave #you... dunno. [STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] A dildo-shaped trophy or #something and you had it there #as a conversation starter.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Although no one comes here #anyways, so it's kinda pointless.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] What? No steamy nights of passion?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Not since... a year ago I think. #And I rather not talk about what #happened then.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] Did someone hurt you? Because if #they did, I can go dish out the #pain.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] No, nothing of the sort. A #different kind of mess.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Uncomfortable mess. A 'not being #able to have sex for reasons' mess.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Glad to know you have my back #though.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] That's what friends are for.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] Wait, you talk about the poster #and compare it to having a #dildo-shaped trophy...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] Did you just call me Dildo Face?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] That's what friends are for.[XS:ph,6][E:7][STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] ...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] Hey, Jill. Where did you get that #black Fore ball?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Well, as with any black cat or #house cat in general, he's actually a #stray.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I found him in the alleys near #the building. Not long after I moved #here, I think.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] Ah, I see.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] It was quite the sight though. He #was cornered by all these dogs but #they were keeping their distance.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] He was holding his ground, #hissing and scratching as much as #he could.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] There was a fried chicken bucket #nearby that had some rain water in it, #so I threw the water over the dogs.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] They ran and I figured the cat's #mom would be nearby, so I left.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Then I noticed people looking in #my direction as I walked. Turns out #the little shit started following me.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] So you brought it home.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] At first, I wanted to see if I #could find him a new home, but...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Having him welcome me whenever I #came back was just too much for my #heart, so he ended up staying.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] It was destiny, girl.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] When he came, he was so cute #though. Not like the fat mass that's #sleeping on the table.[STOPLIP:]
"Fore": Hey, you're not a spring chicken #yourself, you know.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] ...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] ...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] Oho...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] ...shit, I actually did that in #front of someone else.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] Ohohohoho...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] A-Anyway...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] Don't "anyway" me, do you normally #speak for your cat like that?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] ...maybe.[XS:ph,7][E:8][STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Hey Boss, be honest with me here.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] About what?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Who's Gil exactly?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] What do you mean?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] You know what I mean. Who the fuck #is he?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] Oh yeah, that.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] Well, I have a couple of ideas.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] I know for certain that Gil was #in the Hong Kong riots. [STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] And he took part in the anti-riot #force before defecting.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] That should give me a clue as to #who he is but...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] But...?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] So far, I've only found out about #one such defector, and he didn't leave #Hong Kong for at least 4 years.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] I also know for certain that Gil #was in England and France during that #time frame.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] And it's always like that, when I #think I have a clue as to who he is... [STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] Something else comes up that #contradicts the evidence.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] That guy's troublesome.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] A bit, yeah.[XS:ph,7][E:9][STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] *sigh* I wonder if Gil's alright.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] You worried about him?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] You make it sound like I'm some #emotionless robot.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] You can be hard to read.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] I wouldn't worry about Gil so #much though. There's three things I #know for certain about him.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] First: He can take care of #himself.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] Second: You can sincerely trust #him.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] And third?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] He absolutely hates bell pepper.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] He does?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] I've seen him even reject food #that has been in contact with it.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Man, what a baby... unless he's #allergic or something.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] He's not.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Man, what a baby.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] How did you meet such a guy?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] He... showed up in the door of #the bar.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] He... what?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] Well, it was shortly after the #whole incident with Robert and the #levitation potion.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] (Right... "Levitation potion".)[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] It was a slow day and he just... #showed up at the bar.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] I offered him a drink, but he #said he didn't have money on him.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] I... couldn't leave him alone, #so I pretty much gave the drinks for #free.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] And after a couple, he broke down #crying.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] He... huh?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] I don't know what he did, but he #was really, REALLY regretting it.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] He wanted a second chance or #whatever and I told him if he could #wash himself I'd find him a job.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] And I'll be damned, he looked #totally different the next day.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Damn...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] I tried and failed to find out #anything about him.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] So I decided to take him at face #value. I'd judge him from what he did #as an employee.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] And aside from the occasional #sudden escapade, he's been as loyal #as loyal gets.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] I return the favor in kind, #covering his ass from time to time... #sometimes literally.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] What surprises me is that you took #him in so easily.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] I can take care of myself and I #always kept an eye on him.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] And besides, after the whole #Robert thing I couldn't ignore someone #that desperate so easily...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I see...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] You've made the bar more lively #yourself, you know?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] How so?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] Well, with the regulars you've #earned of course.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] Like that blonde titty hacker. I #can't remember her name.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Alma?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] I was gonna say Armitage.[XS:ph,8][E:10][STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Well, she's hot, I'll give her #that much.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] She's also a nice person in #general, but damn, she's hot.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] Are you alright, Jill?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Yeah, why?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] It's... weird to see you say so #openly that someone's hot.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] What? Even you can see she has a #hot body, Boss.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] ...you'll find no objections #here.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I mean, I'd be lying if I said I #hadn't thought about taking her to a #room and...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] ...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] Jill, you sure you aren't drunk?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I am. I mean I'm sure I'm not. I #mean...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] *ahem*[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] But those are thoughts I leave to #myself. I don't think I could handle #her in a relationship. [STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] She has... weird standards.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] That and she's as straight as #straight gets.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] She's still a lovely person, #though. That she became a regular #is a blessing.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] Any regular is a blessing when you #get down to it.[XS:ph,9][E:11][STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] She's a nice girl, you know?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] I don't think she's young enough #to be called a "girl".[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Says the "Girl Who's Eternally #Seventeen."[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] In any case, she's really lovely.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] When you hear her speak of her #family, she speaks with such love. #Her face just brightens up.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] It makes me kind of jealous that #she has such a close relationship with #them, to be honest.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] You have bad relations with your #family?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Not bad, but I'm not exactly close #to anyone aside from my mom, dad, and #aunt.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] But back to Alma, I'm really #hoping she finds a nice guy to settle #with.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I mean, she's so bent into finding #one, I can't help but want her to #succeed.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] Ah, I see.[XS:ph,9][E:12][STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] There's also that sex worker robot #girl.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Ah, Dorothy.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] She intrigues me, though. I've #seen lots of sex workers over the #years, and she seems pretty giddy.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] It's not that she likes her job, #but rather that she takes to it with #such childish excitement.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I've kinda noticed that too. But #then again, Lilim can be weird.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] You think?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Lilim operate in some really #foreign logic.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I mean, they don't really share #our fear of mortality.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Even if their bodies are #destroyed, their minds are already #backed up in the collective source.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] If they lose an arm, they can #reattach it or replace it. [STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Depending on the circumstances, #they might not even feel pain at all.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] It's not like they haven't #attained human-like emotions like fear #or love, but they are... different.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Like a different culture, if you #must.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] Hm... I didn't see it that way.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Aside from that, Dorothy is a #DFC-72. It's a "Social Interactions" #model or something.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Lilim get positive reinforcement #straight from their bodies if they're #fulfilling their main purpose, so...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I'm guessing she gets a built-in #push whenever she's in a meaningful or #"challenging" social interaction.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] Interesting.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] The name "Lilim" is a bit weird #though.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] It is?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] You'd expect them to be called "Bots" #or "Dolls", but "Lilim" doesn't convey #the image of automatons.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Just a tip. "Bots" and "Dolls" are #considered slurs by them.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] "Bot" is akin to calling them #retarded and "Doll" is like calling #them fake.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] Thanks for the advice.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] That aside, do you know why they're #called Lilim?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] As far as I know, because they all #come from a bigger AI called Lilith.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] And Lilim are Lilith's offspring in #Jewish folklore.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] Ooooooh, cool.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] Hey, speaking of names, why don't #you like being called by your full name?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I have no idea what you're talking #about.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] Don't act stupid. [STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] Back when you first transferred, I #called you Julianne and you almost tore #me a new one with your glare.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] ...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] See? Like that.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] It's no big secret, but it's one #of those things that feels silly #when you say it out loud.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] Try me.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Well... did you ever watch "Model #Warrior Julianne"?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] Not all of it, but my little #sister's a big fan of the reruns.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Back when I was in elementary #school I was a HUGE fan of the show.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I had everything. From the dolls #to the costumes to the lunch boxes.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] It didn't help that it was one of #those shows that got strapped literally #everywhere.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] I saw a couple of episodes once. #They were really nice![STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] It was beyond nice! The show's #about a model who can transform into #an armor-clad magic knight. [STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] She fights demons born from greed #and vanity.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] How the show presented Jules #hating her job because it invited #enemies. [STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] And yet still found solace in #trying to be a role model...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Hell, the main character wasn't a #kid. Julianne was an adult that became #younger when transformed.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I'd say it was a pretty ambitious #kid's show. [STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Even by today's standards![STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Just the fact that her enemies were #literally issues dealing with beauty #standards of body image...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Challenging as fuck.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] Whoa, you got excited there.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] And that is the problem. Back #then I was obsessed with Jules. [STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I sang the songs, dressed like #her. I could even recite full #chapters.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] Something tells me you still can.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] ...that's beside the point.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] It was nice while I was in #elementary school, but then I went to #middle school... [STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] And what a surprise, tweens are #jackasses.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] They went out of their way to #tease me about the things I did back #then.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I don't hold it against Jules. I #always hold my grudge against those #fuckjobs.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] Sounds rough.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] You know how most girls worry #about their thighs at that age? [STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I worried about jerkasses singing #the theme tune of the show mocking me.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Anyways, everytime someone calls #me Julianne or Jules, I instinctively #react negatively. [STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Pavlov would be proud of me.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I never talk about it because I #find the whole thing too silly in #retrospect.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] And yet, it affects you even #today. There's nothing wrong with it #though. [STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] It's actually kinda reasonable.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I sure hope so.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Come to think of it. What kind of #kid were you, Boss?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] When I was a toddler, I was the #kind to always fight with kids bigger #than me.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] Then puberty happened and I #became the Merriam-Webster definition #of "shallow jerkwad".[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] Around the time I turned 16, I #realized what an idiot I was and went #on to become who I am today.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] And the less I talk about those #years from 12 to 15, the better.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Fair enough.[XS:ph,10][E:13][STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Say Boss... how do you like them #men?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] 2D.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] 2D?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] Yes. I don't mind anything as #long as that thing is cute or 2D. #How about you?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Um...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Back in high school, I liked them #funny. [STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] In college, I liked them #successful. [STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] After a while, I just wanted them #stable, and now...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] And now...?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I... don't know.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I stopped caring about them being #funny. [STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] My high school boyfriend started #conflating "cheering me up" with #"mocking me when I'm down".[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I also stopped caring about them #being successful. [STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I realized half the time they had #no qualms about cheating with me or on #me.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] And I stopped caring about them #being stable. [STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I realized they were the kind of #person I was trying not to become.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] Not become stable?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] There was this guy who became so #obsessed with holding a stable job #that he hated... [STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] He started being physically ill.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Not only that. The last time I #managed to get some, I ended up #throwing the guy out. [STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] He took incredible offense with how I #smoked on the bed after sex.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] The bed could catch fire, you #know?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Not you too...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I kinda envy Alma for that. At #least when she dumps a guy it's for... #less petty reasons.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] *sigh*[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] ...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] Are you okay?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I'm fine, it's just... it all #boils down to the fact that I can't #get my mind off Lenore lately.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] She was... she was all of what I #just said.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] She made me laugh, she had a good #position and was stable.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] She was also smart, caring and #why can't I get my mind off the whole #thing?![STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] It's... it's maddening. [STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] ...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Maybe I should go and apologize?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Maybe, I should. Maybe that will #make me rest easier at night, get my #mind off things for a while.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I don't even care about going #back to her, but... but...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Agh![STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] ...hey Jill. Have you tried #thinking about clothes for Fore?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Clothes for...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] ...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] ...heh.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] Listen, I know how you must feel.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] But you can't let all of that #cloud your senses.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] Next time you feel overwhelmed by #those thoughts, try distracting #yourself.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] Like with, say... thinking what #kind of clothes you can put on Fore.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Yeah...[XS:ph,11][E:14][STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] So Jill, what kind of guy was #your grandpa?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] He was rough around the edges. #The kind of guy that means well even #if he says otherwise.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] He seemed to have a soft spot for #me, though. [STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] One moment, he was congratulating #my dad by berating him a little... [STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] ...and the next, he was playing #with me.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] My dad worked a lot and my mom #was always traveling, so I spent most #of my childhood with him.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] Can I ask how he died?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Out of old age. My dad says his #last words were something like...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] "Fucking scientists. Created talking #mannequins, but they still can't let you #upload your brain..."[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Why the question?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] I'm curious about you. Really #curious.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] I just realized that even though #we see each other almost every day, I #know very little about you.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Oh.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] From what you tell me though, #seems your grandpa's personality #rubbed off on you a bit.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I've heard that one since I was a #kid, actually.[XS:ph,11][E:15][STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] You know, Boss, I'm a bit curious #about your circle of friends. What kind #of people do you have in it?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] Keep in mind, you're included in #this circle too, so any insults you #hurl will apply right back to you.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] Anyways. I have this friend I've #known for a long time. A red-headed, #glasses-wearing gun-nut called Iris.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] The one you called for the helmet #thing?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] That one.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] She's managing a BTC bar in Panama #right now, if I remember correctly.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] She's managing a bar too?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] I got the idea from her, actually.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Oh.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] It's called N1-RV Ann-A, and if #you thought this city was dangerous...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] You should see the people she has #to deal with there.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] Piracy ain't nothing to fuck with.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] "Ann" means it's an annex to #another business. What else does #she do there?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] I think the bar was originally #her hotel's bar.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] She moved the bar to its own #building elsewhere and opened #N1-RV Ann-B in the hotel instead.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Weird decision.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] I believe she said she wanted a #place "away from the noisy rich tourists #that go to the hotel."[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] So that bar is her woman cave.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] (Woman cave...)[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] That aside, let's see... friends, #friends...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] I guess there's also my little #sister, but that's a given.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] Oh! There's also my old partner #from when I was with the Neo-San #Francisco police force.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] Good ol' Lexi. Should give her a #call sometime.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Wait, you were in the what?![STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] I've done lots of things, Jill.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] I spent a short time collaborating #with the police force. I've been a #wrestler, an MMA fighter...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] Chimney cleaner, lumberjack, pet #shop attendant, corporate mascot...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Corporate what?![STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] I still see my face on some #websites from time to time.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] Anyways, aside from you, Gil, my #sis, Iris and Lexi... hm...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] I guess there're a lot of people #that don't want to see me in harm's #way.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] ...mostly because they're the ones #that want to hurt me.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] What about you?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I guess I have acquaintances here #and there. [STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Back at home and college, #I went out a lot.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] But it felt more like going out #was the pleasure, rather than the #people involved.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Aside from you and Gil, my #closest friend since moving here is #Alma... oh, and Dorothy.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I mean, sure. There's always Fore, #but that cat's a hermit that refuses #to go out.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] And you know... he's a cat.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] Hey, a cat's fine too, you know?[XS:ph,12][E:16][STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Boss. Hey, Boss.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] Hm?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] How did you lose your v-card?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] V-huh?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] You know, your v-card, your first #time, your deflowering.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] OOOOOOOOOOH, that. Well...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] I'm legally bound to not disclose #that information.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Does that mean you lost it?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] Can't disclose that information.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Come on, just give me a hint #or...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] Jill, bad things will happen for #everyone if that info is revealed in #ANY way.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Alright, alright... sheesh.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] I can only say this: the whole #thing is related to my mechanical arm.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Great, now you're just teasing me.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] Any reason you want to know that?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Well, everyone's first time is #always a mess, but I've always to #know if it was as messy a time as mine.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] What happened?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Well, I got all lovey-dovey with #my first boyfriend, and when we both #got naked, I... pffffft...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] ...?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] When I saw his pfffffffffft... #when I saw his dick I just started #lahahahaha! *ahem* I started laughing.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] What? Got nervous?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Nervous? No! I just find dicks #funny![STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] You... uh?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] They're funny, they're #pffffffft... [STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] They have a sack attached to them #and... heheheheh... and they grow #and...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] They're just... AHAHAHAHAHA... #THEY'RE JUST STUPID MEAT RODS![STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] ...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] So how did your boyfriend react?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] He went flaccid from the laughter #and... AHAHAHAHAHA! It just shrunk and #went limp.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I had to work it out to for a bit #so I could control my laughter. But... [STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] It's so hard! They're just so #stupid! AHAHAHAHAHA!![STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] Pffffffftt...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] *yawn* Heheh...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Shtupid... meat... rods...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] Jill?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Zzzzzzzzzz...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] Huh. [STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] ...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] Well, let's see how to move her #back inside before she catches a #cold.[XS:ph,13][E:17][STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Okay, Boss, I HAVE to know.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] About what?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] About your arm![STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] I'd rather not talk about it.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Come on! I wanna know how you #got it.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] Fiiiiiiiiiiiiine.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Yes?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] I had to use a couple of favors #to get it. I accepted no less than #state-of-the-art tech.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] That's how I got it.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] That's technically correct, but #COME OOOOON![STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] Why do you wanna know how I got #it?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I just wanna know more about you.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] You're always so cool and awesome #and...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Can you at least tell me if it #does something cool?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] It does have a couple of #utilities installed, yeah.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] There's a HDD in the forearm I #use to save assorted data.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] It has a flashlight and a clock, #but many prosthetic arms have those #nowadays. Kinda like watches.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] How did you feel when you lost #it?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] To be honest, I was sad, but I #was also satisfied.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] Yeah, I lost my dominant arm, but #its sacrifice helped a bigger purpose.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] If I had to lose another limb to #accomplish such a thing again, I'd #totally do it.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] But of course, I just hope it #doesn't come to that ever again.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Now you're just teasing me![STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] You'll hear nothing else from #me, young lady.[XS:ph,13][E:18][STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Hey Boss... what will you do when #the bar closes?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] I don't know. Maybe I'll take a #friend's offer of working with her.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] I was also thinking about going #back home and helping with things there.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] Or maybe going travelling for a #while.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I see...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] Oh, but don't worry! Bureaucracy's #slow as fuck, so they won't close the #bar for quite a while. [STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] Better enjoy being there while #you can.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Yeah, maybe...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Will you be visiting me in whatever #bar I end up working in?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] I have a bone to pick with the #guy that supervises the bar I'm #planning to get you transferred to.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] I go there even though I have #virtually no reason to. [STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] With you there, I'd have #something PLEASANT to look forward #to.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Um... you're sending me to #someone you have problems with?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] If I have to trust another bar #owner, it's certainly him. [STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] He's actually a pleasant boss #from what I've seen.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] The fact that he and I have a #tendency to go at each other's throats #is an unrelated matter.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I'll trust you on that one then.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] Don't worry. Maybe I can get you #a bracelet made out of wood pieces #from the bar's counter or something.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Um... we'll see.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] Hey, I'll tell you what.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] When the bar closes, let's both #take a vacation. Go on a trip! That'll #clear your mind a bit.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Yeah, maybe.[XS:ph,13][E:19][STOPLIP:]

[SHOW:185,sprite_gil][XS:giltalk,1][C:19]Gillian:[C:C] Oh, hey guys![STOPLIP:]
[SHOW:120,sprite_dana][SHOW:280,sprite_gil][XS:danaface,worry][XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] How the hell did you get in?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:giltalk,1][C:19]Gillian:[C:C] I have a copy of the key, #remembe-...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:gilface,fucked][XS:giltalk,1][C:19]Gillian:[C:C] Wait, that's how you greet me after #so many days?![STOPLIP:]
[XS:danaface,][XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] I never doubted you'd be fine. [STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] If anything, I'd have to cut your #paycheck for leaving for so many days #without notice.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:giltalk,1][C:19]Gillian:[C:C] ...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] See, Jill? "He'll be here on Monday #like nothing ever happened."[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Wait, why does he have a copy of the #key and I don't?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] The need for you having a key never #arose.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] True...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] Anyway. Glad you're fine Gil.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:giltalk,1][C:19]Gillian:[C:C] Thanks. I guess...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] ...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:gilface,][XS:giltalk,1][C:19]Gillian:[C:C] What? Are you gonna make me wash #the bathrooms again?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Not today.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Listen, I don't know who the hell you #really are or what's trying to come back to #bite you in the ass.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] But remember there are people that #actually care about you. Don't just leave #like you did.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Especially after all hell broke loose. #At least give us a sign that you're still #alive.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:giltalk,1][C:19]Gillian:[C:C] So you were worried?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Isn't that normal?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:gilface,cods][XS:giltalk,1][C:19]Gillian:[C:C] When it comes to you, I don't know.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Shut up.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] She's right, though. You shouldn't #make ladies worry so much.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] Check if the cats didn't move the #internet antenna, would you?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:gilface,][XS:giltalk,1][C:19]Gillian:[C:C] Fine, fine...[XS:gilhide,1][STOPLIP:]
[SHOW:185,sprite_dana][XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Hey Boss, why did you leave the hoodie #at my place?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] Because it's yours?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] But I told you you could keep it.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:danaface,eee][XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] Sorry, I... couldn't find it in myself #to take it.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Why?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:danaface,][XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] Partly because I didn't feel right #taking it.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] But mostly because I thought you'd #totally look cute with it.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I-I see...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] Don't think I'm rejecting a gift of #yours, it's just...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] Preserving cuteness is one of my #principles.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] R-Right...[STOPLIP:][XS:ph,2][E:2]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Um... Boss, about last night...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I think I said one too many things #and... uh...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:danaface,closedsmile][XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] So what? Drunk banter is something you #see every day. It's not like I'm gonna think #less of you because of it.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] ...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:danaface,][XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] Relax, if anything I feel closer to #you after seeing you so wasted.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Oh...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] So yeah, don't give it much thought.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] *snicker* Stupid meat rods.[XS:danhide,1][STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] ...[STOPLIP:]
[SHOW:185,sprite_gil][XS:giltalk,1][C:19]Gillian:[C:C] Antenna's fine. Did I miss #anything?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Nothing, let's go.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:gilface,surprise][XS:giltalk,1][C:19]Gillian:[C:C] Are you okay? Your face is red.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I'M FINE.[XS:ph,-1][XS:juke,1][E:3]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] Are you still worried about the whole #bar closure thing?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Of course I am.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Not like I can't work because of it, #but you know...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] All we can do is enjoy whatever time #we have left here as best we can.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Yeah...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:danaface,closedsmile][XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] So, cheer up! Clients smell sadness and #fear, and we don't want that.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:danaface,][XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] I'll go to my office.[XS:danhide,1][STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Okay.[STOPLIP:]
[SHOW:185,sprite_gil][XS:giltalk,1][C:19]Gillian:[C:C] Antenna's fine. Did I miss #anything?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Not really, no.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Anyways, let's start the day.[XS:ph,-1][XS:juke,1][E:4][STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Time to mix drinks and change lives.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Oh yeah, Gil?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:gilface,][XS:giltalk,1][C:19]Gillian:[C:C] Hm?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Glad to see you're fine. I mean it.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:giltalk,1][C:19]Gillian:[C:C] Thanks.[XS:gilhide,1][STOPLIP:]
[SHOW:185,sprite_brian][XS:briantalk,1][C:30]???:[C:C] Excuse me, I'm looking for Dana Zane.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] May I have your name?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:briantalk,1][C:30]Brian:[C:C] Tell her it's Brian.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Just a sec.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] BOSS!! SOME BRIAN GUY IS LOOKING FOR #YOU!![STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] TELL HIM I'LL BE THERE IN A BIT!![STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] She'll... um... you heard her.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:briantalk,1][C:30]Brian:[C:C] It's alright. I'll wait.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] It's weird for someone to come asking #for her though.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:briantalk,1][C:30]Brian:[C:C] It's not so weird when you're BTC's #Regional Manager in these parts.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Yeah, I guess that's...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] ...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] ...um.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I guess I didn't give you the best #first impression.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:briantalk,1][C:30]Brian:[C:C] Haha! Don't worry, I know who I'm #dealing with. [STOPLIP:]
[XS:briantalk,1][C:30]Brian:[C:C] I'm not a fan of people treating me #too nicely because of my position anyways.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:briantalk,1][C:30]Brian:[C:C] Handle me like I'm just another #client.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] A-Alright. I can do that.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] What can I get you, Mr. Brian?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:briantalk,1][C:30]Brian:[C:C] Let's go with the basics. A Sugar #Rush, please.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Coming right up.[XS:ph,4][XS:mix,1][E:5][STOPLIP:]
[RES:][XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Here.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:briantalk,1][C:30]Brian:[C:C] Yeah, this one's nice.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Back in training, they made a big deal #out of Sugar Rushes. Why?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:briantalk,1][C:30]Brian:[C:C] They're like the Fried Eggs of #mixing drinks.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:briantalk,1][C:30]Brian:[C:C] They're the most basic thing, but #people can still mess them up.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:briantalk,1][C:30]Brian:[C:C] Sugar Rushes are simple enough that #you only need to follow instructions.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:briantalk,1][C:30]Brian:[C:C] If you can't even do that, your future #as a bartender is not bright.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Huh... they never told me that.[XS:mix,0][XS:ph,5][E:6][STOPLIP:]
[RES:][XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Here.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:briantalk,1][C:30]Brian:[C:C] Hm...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:briantalk,1][C:30]Brian:[C:C] We've received reports of some #CaliCOMPs suffering a bug where the names of #the orders don't match up with the recipe.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:briantalk,1][C:30]Brian:[C:C] Are you getting that too by any #chance?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I think...?[XS:mix,0][XS:ph,5][E:7][STOPLIP:]
[XS:briantalk,1][C:30]Brian:[C:C] You're Jill, right?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Yup, that's me.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:briantalk,1][C:30]Brian:[C:C] Dana has talked quite a bit about #you.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Really?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:briantalk,1][C:30]Brian:[C:C] And I guess you must have a few #questions for me, am I right?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] ...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:briantalk,1][C:30]Brian:[C:C] Mostly concerning the closure warning #Valhalla got.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Can you disclose any information?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:briantalk,1][C:30]Brian:[C:C] I shouldn't, but you have the right #to know.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Thanks.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:briantalk,1][C:30]Brian:[C:C] Don't mention it. Now where to start...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:briantalk,1][C:30]Brian:[C:C] You saw the news on the information #leaked during the Apollo Trust Bank #incident, right?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] About the White Knights having lots of #members from criminal organizations in their #ranks?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:briantalk,1][C:30]Brian:[C:C] Turns out the White Knights weren't #the only ones with shady people.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:briantalk,1][C:30]Brian:[C:C] Some of those same folks have been #trying to elude legal problems using BTC-#certified bars.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:briantalk,1][C:30]Brian:[C:C] The BTC bars have their own protocols, #meaning the White Knights can't dig too #deeply...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:briantalk,1][C:30]Brian:[C:C] ...at least, not without going through #a ton of paperwork first, giving the #criminals time to cover their tracks.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:briantalk,1][C:30]Brian:[C:C] Although it takes a bit of time to set #up, it has apparently proven an effective #method for money laundering.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Where does Valhalla come in?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:briantalk,1][C:30]Brian:[C:C] "Young" bars are the ones under the #radar right now, and the modest-to-low #income ones are the primary suspects.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:briantalk,1][C:30]Brian:[C:C] It's not just Valhalla. Any small bar #with small income is being investigated #heavily right now.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] So the closure notice is due to low #sales...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:briantalk,1][C:30]Brian:[C:C] Among the reasons a bar can get axed, #low sales is the rarest one.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:briantalk,1][C:30]Brian:[C:C] If low sales were a problem, lots of #bars would close every year.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] ...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] "You'll find out soon enough" huh...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:briantalk,1][C:30]Brian:[C:C] Sorry?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Oh, nothing. Don't mind me.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Seems your guess was spot-on, Gil.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:giltalk,1][C:19]Gillian:[C:C] Hm?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:briantalk,1][C:30]Brian:[C:C] If it helps, I'm doing my best to #appeal in your place.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Really? Why?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:briantalk,1][C:30]Brian:[C:C] Most of Glitch City's bars are a pain #in the ass. They constantly give reports of #chemical damage or shady drinks.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:briantalk,1][C:30]Brian:[C:C] This is one of the few places from #which I almost never receive complaints.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:briantalk,1][C:30]Brian:[C:C] The closest thing to a recent #complaint was that whole Farmer Fabrics #affair from a little while ago.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] So much saliva...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:briantalk,1][C:30]Brian:[C:C] I wouldn't get my hopes up though. [STOPLIP:]
[XS:briantalk,1][C:30]Brian:[C:C] Especially since the BTC will try to #save face by axing as many suspects as #possible.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Knowing you're making an effort is #enough. Thanks.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Can I get you anything else?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:briantalk,1][C:30]Brian:[C:C] Now that I remember, the recipe book has a #drink created here, right?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Oh yeah, the Suplex.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:briantalk,1][C:30]Brian:[C:C] Get me one of those, please.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Sure.[XS:ph,6][XS:mix,1][E:8][STOPLIP:]
[RES:][XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Here.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:briantalk,1][C:30]Brian:[C:C] The registry form said this was an #accident while making a Piledriver.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] You can ask the creator of the drink #just over there.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:briantalk,1][C:30]Brian:[C:C] Ah, so you're Robert?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:giltalk,1][C:19]Gillian:[C:C] Yes! That's my name. I'm Robert, #the one and only.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] ...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:briantalk,1][C:30]Brian:[C:C] Jill called you "Gil" though.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Uh... it's Argentinian slang.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] R-Robert here is from Argentina, so #we call him Gil.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:briantalk,1][C:30]Brian:[C:C] Huh... I see.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] ...[STOPLIP:]

[RES:][XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Here.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:briantalk,1][C:30]Brian:[C:C] No, I think you got it wrong. The #Suplex is a variation of a Piledriver.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:briantalk,1][C:30]Brian:[C:C] This is just a Piledriver.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] You're right, sorry.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:briantalk,1][C:30]Brian:[C:C] It happens to even the best of us. #Let's leave it at that.[XS:ph,7][XS:mix,0][E:10][STOPLIP:]

[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] Sorry Brian, I was sorting some stuff #at the office. Please come in.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:briantalk,1][C:30]Brian:[C:C] I'll be right there.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:briantalk,1][C:30]Brian:[C:C] Any other questions, Jill?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Not really, no.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Although...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:briantalk,1][C:30]Brian:[C:C] Yeah?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] If you were to evaluate my performance #right now, how would you rate me?[XS:ph,8][E:12][STOPLIP:]
[XS:briantalk,1][C:30]Brian:[C:C] Clean and timely delivery of the #correct orders. A top-notch bartender.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Thanks.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:briantalk,1][C:30]Brian:[C:C] Now if you'll excuse me...[XS:brianhide,1][XS:ph,1][XS:client,2][E:13][STOPLIP:]
[XS:briantalk,1][C:30]Brian:[C:C] You could use a bit more practice to #not mix up one drink with another, but #you're pretty good aside from that.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Thanks.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:briantalk,1][C:30]Brian:[C:C] Now, I need to go talk to your Boss. #Excuse me.[XS:brianhide,1][XS:ph,1][XS:client,2][E:14][STOPLIP:]
[XS:briantalk,1][C:30]Brian:[C:C] Eh... I need to talk to your Boss, #excuse me.[XS:brianhide,1][STOPLIP:]

[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I received my training in another #city. The regional supervisor there was #some girl with a red mohawk.[STOPLIP:]

[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] (I wonder what Boss will talk to #Brian about...)[STOPLIP:]

[XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] ...um.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:stelface,][XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] You know Sei, right?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Of course, what's up with her?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] She was at the Apollo Trust Bank #during that whole affair and...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Oh.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] (Right... that.)[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] So she...?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:stelface,concern][XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] She didn't show up on the list of #the massive body count in the aftermath, #so...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] I was hoping that maybe you've seen #her.[STOPLIP:]

[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] ...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] Yeah, I figured as much.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] ...[STOPLIP:]

[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] (Man, the air is suddenly a lot #heavier.)[STOPLIP:]
[XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] ...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] (I mean, I could tell her everything #will be alright, but that would sound a #bit... condescending.)[STOPLIP:]

[XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] ...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] (Okay, just... try and say anything. At #the very least, you'll break the tension.)[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] (Maybe distracting her will be #enough?)[STOPLIP:]

[XS:stelface,][XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] A private detective, I take it?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Yeah. Maybe you'll want his services?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] What's his name?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I believe it was Art... Van, no. Von #Delay.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] Oh, that Art guy. Yeah, I actually #hired him yesterday to look for Sei.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] So you still have hope.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] I'm somewhere between Bargaining and #Depression right now. And I'm afraid to let #go of Bargaining.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I see.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Is he any good?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] He doesn't look like it, but he's #quite skilled at gathering intel.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] I believe he'll give me answers #about Sei... whatever they might be.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] ...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] ...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] *sigh* Sometimes I wish I had a magic #wand so I could solve all my problems with #a swing, you know?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:stelface,concern][XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] Sorry if I'm making you uncomfortable.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Oh, sorry. No, it's not about feeling #uncomfortable.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] It's just... weird. I usually try to #say something to my clients when I see them #down.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] And right now, I can't find any words #that don't sound hypocritical, useless, or #tasteless.[STOPLIP:]

[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Seems you really like Sei.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:stelface,concern][XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] I don't have brothers or sisters, #and my social interactions are usually #strictly business.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] So Sei's more than a friend to me, #she's... she's...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] ...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Sorry, I brought that topic up at a #bad time.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:stelface,][XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] *ahem* Don't worry about it.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] As I was saying, she's more than a #friend. She's my emotional support, she's #someone I can trust wholeheartedly.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] I'd say she's like my sister, but #siblings usually lack that level of trust.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] I have to deal with high-class pricks #of every race and upbringing on a daily #basis.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] They use a "business mask" to hide #anything they don't want others to know and #I do the same.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] But with Sei I can be myself, I can #do whatever I want and vent all my #frustrations.[STOPLIP:]

[XS:stelface,concern][XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] ...sorry about the outburst.[STOPLIP:]

[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I mean, I'd be a mess in that #situation.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Still, would you like some fresh air? #I'm gonna take my break and you could use #some.[STOPLIP:]

[XS:stelface,][XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] I'm fine, thanks.[STOPLIP:]

[XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] I'm just giving you the facts as #they are.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] What happened while I was gone?[STOPLIP:]
[SHOW:185,sprite_gil][XS:giltalk,1][C:19]Gillian:[C:C] Let's see...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:giltalk,1][C:19]Gillian:[C:C] Detective guy comes in, Cat Boomer #girl greets him. They start talking...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:gilface,fucked][XS:giltalk,1][C:19]Gillian:[C:C] Everything was okay until the girl #mentioned Zaibatsu Corp offhand.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:giltalk,1][C:19]Gillian:[C:C] After that, the guy got riled up #and started badmouthing it.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:gilface,][XS:giltalk,1][C:19]Gillian:[C:C] Oddly enough, he was the only one. #She just carried on like it was just a #normal conversation.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I see...[XS:gilhide,1][STOPLIP:]
[SHOW:280,sprite_stella][XS:stelface,][SHOW:120,sprite_art][XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] While I won't deny Zaibatsu Corp is #anything but innocent... [STOPLIP:]
[XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] When you get down to it, it has #enhanced the quality of life here.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:arttalk,1][C:26]Art:[C:C] Yeah, if by enhanced, you mean getting #yanked around by a shiny new chain around #our necks.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:arttalk,1][C:26]Art:[C:C] Can't you see that those big companies #don't care about us?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:arttalk,1][C:26]Art:[C:C] Why do you think Glitch City is #mockingly called "the guinea pig of the #world"?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:arttalk,1][C:26]Art:[C:C] We're just one big test group for them #to use however they want![STOPLIP:]
[XS:arttalk,1][C:26]Art:[C:C] But then again, I don't expect a kid to #understand how hard it was, let alone a rich #kid.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:stelface,concern][XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] True, I don't know. And true, I have #a privilege that clouds my judgement.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:stelface,][XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] But can you deny that the meddling of #Zaibatsu Corp has brought quite a few #benefits?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:arttalk,1][C:26]Art:[C:C] Like what?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] The AI Integration Program they #started is making huge advances in the AI #department.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] Every day, more and more countries #are seeing the benefits of recognizing AIs #as citizens.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:arttalk,1][C:26]Art:[C:C] Yes, but we also hold the AI Reformation #Program.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:arttalk,1][C:26]Art:[C:C] Meaning that we're also the world's #Lilim prison.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:arttalk,1][C:26]Art:[C:C] AI went rogue? Transfer it to a delivery #drone or ship it to Glitch City.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:arttalk,1][C:26]Art:[C:C] That murderer is now delivering your #pizza.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] Fair point. Although that program HAS #proven to have reformed many AIs.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] They don't brag about their 88% #success rate for nothing.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Um...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] The city also has a stronger economy.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] Zaibatsu Corp's success has made more #and more companies bring their products #here.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:arttalk,1][C:26]Art:[C:C] And the gap between classes continues #to grow.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:arttalk,1][C:26]Art:[C:C] More companies just mean more people #who will plant their feet on your face.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] But it also means more products are #being brought to the lower classes.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] Stores have 20% more brand variety #compared to last year.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Uh...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] Zaibatsu Corp's main Medical #Research branch has also made lots of #discoveries.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] More and more illnesses, previously #thought incurable, are being addressed every #day.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:arttalk,1][C:26]Art:[C:C] It's amazing, for those who can afford #them.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:arttalk,1][C:26]Art:[C:C] Meanwhile, down here we're experiencing #medicine shortages almost every month.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:stelface,concern][XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] You have a point there.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:stelface,][XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] Oh, but there are also more jobs. #All of the companies coming down here #need personnel.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] So the unemployment rate has gone #down by almost 40% this year.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:arttalk,1][C:26]Art:[C:C] More jobs? Shut up.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] Am I wrong?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:arttalk,1][C:26]Art:[C:C] Well, that's...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:arttalk,1][C:26]Art:[C:C] ...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:arttalk,1][C:26]Art:[C:C] Hey you! Don't just sit there. Give me #a Zen Star![STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Sure.[XS:mix,1][XS:ph,2][E:21][STOPLIP:]
[RES:][XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Here.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:arttalk,1][C:26]Art:[C:C] God, this is awful.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] It's your order, though.[XS:mix,0][XS:ph,3][E:22][STOPLIP:]
[RES:][XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Here you are.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:arttalk,1][C:26]Art:[C:C] Hey, this tastes better than I #expected.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] Because it's not the right order.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:arttalk,1][C:26]Art:[C:C] Huh...[XS:mix,0][XS:ph,3][E:23][STOPLIP:]
[XS:arttalk,1][C:26]Art:[C:C] I seriously hope you don't really #believe everything you just said.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] Of course I do, why else would I say #it?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:stelface,concern][XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] You do bring up something I always #fail to remember. All the benefits we've #gained over time are limited to a few.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] I can talk about advances all I want, #but in the end, they're still a luxury #belonging only to a few.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] And even those that can be accessed #by everyone are more like an improvement in #the bigger picture.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:stelface,][XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] That doesn't take away the fact #that there have been positive changes.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] Credit where credit's due, don't you #think?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] That's a... pretty mature answer.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] Discussions are a way for two parties #to understand each other.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] The only people afraid of discussion #are the ones whose points are too fragile #to defend against someone.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:artface,sight][XS:arttalk,1][C:26]Art:[C:C] Yeah, mature. Whatever.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] I'm gonna take the chance to ask you #about that job I gave you yesterday.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:artface,][XS:arttalk,1][C:26]Art:[C:C] I haven't been able to find much, but #I can at least tell you that she wasn't #at the bank when it opened up.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] What does that mean?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:arttalk,1][C:26]Art:[C:C] Either she left before the whole #ordeal started...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:arttalk,1][C:26]Art:[C:C] ...or she managed to escape at some #point before the whole thing ended.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:arttalk,1][C:26]Art:[C:C] All the corpses are accounted for. They #only found one totally disfigured, but #witnesses identified it.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:arttalk,1][C:26]Art:[C:C] It wasn't your friend, that much is for #sure.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:stelface,concern][XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] ...I see.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Did you call him here?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] No, he just so happened to come here #today.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:arttalk,1][C:26]Art:[C:C] The weird part is that the girl did #enter the bank. It's like she... vanished #or something.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:stelface,][XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] I see. Thanks, keep it up.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Your face brightened a bit.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] Hope is the last thing you lose, I #guess.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] If he's telling the truth, Sei might #have found a way out.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] She's a resourceful girl. She surely #did something.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] I think I'll have another drink. Do #you want anything?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:arttalk,1][C:26]Art:[C:C] Me? Um...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:arttalk,1][C:26]Art:[C:C] Just get me whatever you order.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] Two Bad Touches, please.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] *pfft* On it.[XS:ph,4][XS:mix,1][E:24][STOPLIP:]
[RES:][XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] ...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] I remember this one party I went to. #The guy that came up with the name of this #drink showed up.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] After people found that one out, #they lined up to slap him for whatever #reason.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] They didn't seem offended to me #though.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:arttalk,1][C:26]Art:[C:C] Imagine a guy shows up and tells you "I #made a classy Bad Touch", wouldn't you line #up to slap him?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] Um... are you okay, Jill?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I'm... f-f-fahahahahahaine...[XS:mix,0][XS:ph,5][E:25][STOPLIP:]

[XS:arttalk,1][C:26]Art:[C:C] What?![STOPLIP:]
[XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] What? Do you want a girl that could #easily be your daughter to give you a Bad #Touch?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] Very classy, Mr. Von Delay.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:arttalk,1][C:26]Art:[C:C] ...[XS:mix,0][XS:ph,5][E:26][STOPLIP:]
[RES:][XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] ...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] Wrong drink, Jill.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] Maybe it's for the best though. #Every time I order Bad Touches, I end up in #a cycle of bad jokes.[XS:mix,0][XS:ph,5][E:27][STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Now that I think of it, did you find #that girl you were looking for a week ago, #Mr. Von Delay?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:arttalk,1][C:26]Art:[C:C] Turns out she was at the Apollo Trust #Bank all this time. No wonder I couldn't #get in touch with her.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] Girl?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:arttalk,1][C:26]Art:[C:C] Someone paid me to look for Crimson #Rose and she happened to be at the...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:arttalk,1][C:26]Art:[C:C] Um...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] What?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:artface,sigh][XS:arttalk,1][C:26]Art:[C:C] I'm trying to avoid mentioning that a #dangerous assassin got stuck in the same #bank as the girl you're looking for.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] Oh, don't worry.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] Besides, the last thing I'm worried #about with Sei is people.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Why's that?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] Her attitude is usually so laid back #and gentle that she has no problem getting #people on her side.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] And on the off-chance that she has to #defend herself... well... [STOPLIP:]
[XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] I once saw her take care of a warbot #gone haywire by herself.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] She did need medical help afterwards, #but she recovered in no time AND managed to #take care of the 'bot.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Is she really that good?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] She's not only really physically fit, #she's also really good with Krav Maga and...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:stelface,surprise][XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] ...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Something wrong?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:stelface,][XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] No, nothing. I just realized I #forgot about all that.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] Sei's not invincible, but she knows #how to take care of herself.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] And like I said, she's resourceful. #She surely found a way out.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:stelface,concern][XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] *sigh* I just hope she's well #wherever the hell she is.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] ...she owes me an ice cream.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:stelface,][XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] You want another drink, Mr. Von #Delay? It's on me.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:artface,][XS:arttalk,1][C:26]Art:[C:C] Are you sure?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:steltalk,1][C:16]Stella:[C:C] Yeah, order away.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:arttalk,1][C:26]Art:[C:C] Okay then. I'll have a Piano Man.[STOPLIP:]

[XS:arttalk,1][C:26]Art:[C:C] When you entered, you asked for Miss #Stella.[STOPLIP:]

[XS:arttalk,1][C:26]Art:[C:C] Would it happen to be Stella Hoshii?[STOPLIP:]

[XS:arttalk,1][C:26]Art:[C:C] Huh... that was quite the coincidence. #I'm actually doing a job for her.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] It's more of a coincidence that it #happens to be the Stella you're looking #for.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:artface,sigh][XS:arttalk,1][C:26]Art:[C:C] "Stella" is not exactly a common name. #So of course I'll raise an eyebrow when #hearing it.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] What kind of job are you doing for #her?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:artface,][XS:arttalk,1][C:26]Art:[C:C] Tracking some missing girl that was #in the Apollo Trust Bank on the weekend.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Did you find her?[STOPLIP:]

[XS:arttalk,1][C:26]Art:[C:C] I like to think she found a way out, #but I must keep investigating.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Speaking of searches, did you find the #other girl you were looking for?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:arttalk,1][C:26]Art:[C:C] Crimson Rose? Nope, but I did find out #she was stuck with the other people at the #Apollo Trust Bank.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:arttalk,1][C:26]Art:[C:C] She disappeared too, and honestly, she #better stay that way.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:arttalk,1][C:26]Art:[C:C] There are things I certainly don't wanna #deal with, and an assassin whose cover has #been blown is one of them.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I wonder what she was doing there.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:arttalk,1][C:26]Art:[C:C] That girl is... unstable. Crazy.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:arttalk,1][C:26]Art:[C:C] Saying "She was there because she found #the idea of being in a soon-to-be murdered #crowd FUN" isn't far fetched.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Huh...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] And you're saying this girl is on the #run?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:artface,sigh][XS:arttalk,1][C:26]Art:[C:C] Apparently not only is she hurt, she #also got her cover blown.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:arttalk,1][C:26]Art:[C:C] A wounded beast on the run. Something #I'm seriously not getting involved with.[STOPLIP:]

[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] We don't get that many clients, so #it's easy to remember.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:arttalk,1][C:26]Art:[C:C] Yeah, well. I have to. [STOPLIP:]
[XS:arttalk,1][C:26]Art:[C:C] I don't want the client to come back #looking for their cash when they realize #I'm not looking for Crimson Rose.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] You aren't?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:arttalk,1][C:26]Art:[C:C] Do you know how Crimson Rose kills her #targets?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Not really, no.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:arttalk,1][C:26]Art:[C:C] Her blood has an abnormal batch of #nanomachines. [STOPLIP:]
[XS:arttalk,1][C:26]Art:[C:C] They react to the "normal" kind floating #inside you and I.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:arttalk,1][C:26]Art:[C:C] If her blood touches yours, it causes #nanomachine rejection almost immediately.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:arttalk,1][C:26]Art:[C:C] Right then and there, spreading as fast #as your blood pumps.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Tissues getting ripped off by #themselves... brain damage...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:arttalk,1][C:26]Art:[C:C] She never executes her targets. She just #cuts them, cuts her palm and holds the #target's injury tightly.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:arttalk,1][C:26]Art:[C:C] Some say the target looks like it's #getting drained. Getting thinner by the #minute.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:artface,sigh][XS:arttalk,1][C:26]Art:[C:C] Like I said, as far as I know, that #girl's cover got blown during the whole #bank affair. [STOPLIP:]
[XS:arttalk,1][C:26]Art:[C:C] She got crazy with bloodlust and killed #a guy or something.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:arttalk,1][C:26]Art:[C:C] When everyone was freed, she just #disappeared, probably until the smoke blows #off.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:arttalk,1][C:26]Art:[C:C] And there're also hints that she got #some sort of injury.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:arttalk,1][C:26]Art:[C:C] So she's likely going to be more on #guard than usual.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:artface,][XS:arttalk,1][C:26]Art:[C:C] And do you honestly think I wanna chase #someone so dangerous in such a situation? #I'm not an idiot.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:arttalk,1][C:26]Art:[C:C] If my client wants someone dead, they #can get someone else to take the contract. #I have a family, dammit.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] You do?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:arttalk,1][C:26]Art:[C:C] Wife and a daughter, why?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I don't know. You strike me more as a #single person, for some reason.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:arttalk,1][C:26]Art:[C:C] I get that a lot.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:arttalk,1][C:26]Art:[C:C] Alright, one last drink before leaving.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Anything on your mind?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:arttalk,1][C:26]Art:[C:C] Hm... a Piano Man or something with #lots of alcohol, I'll let you decide.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Alright.[XS:ph,6][XS:mix,1][E:43][STOPLIP:]
[RES:][XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Here.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:arttalk,1][C:26]Art:[C:C] A Piano Man...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:arttalk,1][C:26]Art:[C:C] Now that I think about it, why don't #you have a pianist? That would bring #clients.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] The problem isn't the pianist. Pianos #are just too expensive.[XS:ph,7][XS:mix,0][E:44][STOPLIP:]
[RES:][XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Here.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:arttalk,1][C:26]Art:[C:C] This Piano Man seems off.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] It's um... actually a woman.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:arttalk,1][C:26]Art:[C:C] Well, the drink can identify itself #however it wants, I won't judge.[XS:ph,7][XS:mix,0][E:45][STOPLIP:]
[RES:][XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Here.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:arttalk,1][C:26]Art:[C:C] Yup, just like this.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Why order something so strong?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:arttalk,1][C:26]Art:[C:C] I've had this headache for a bit and I #wanted to see if alcohol would calm it.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] And?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:arttalk,1][C:26]Art:[C:C] No luck[XS:ph,7][XS:mix,0][E:46][STOPLIP:]

[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] ...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:arttalk,1][C:26]Art:[C:C] Whatcha lookin' at?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] You're not moving.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:arttalk,1][C:26]Art:[C:C] Bullshit! I'm moving, you're moving, #the damn floor is moving like crazy.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:arttalk,1][C:26]Art:[C:C] I'm just waiting for it to take me out #the door.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Riiiiiight, I'm gonna call you a cab.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] ...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Hello? Yeah, it's me.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] His name? Art Von Dela-... hello?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] They hung up.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:arttalk,1][C:26]Art:[C:C] Was it Tanhausser Cabs? Yeah, I'm #banned from their services.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Why?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:arttalk,1][C:26]Art:[C:C] Too big of a tab, I'd always get into #one of their cabs and then jump out of the #window to avoid having to pay.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I see.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:arttalk,1][C:26]Art:[C:C] Don't worry. I'll just go to my office #and sleep it off. It's nearby.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Take care.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:arttalk,1][C:26]Art:[C:C] Yeah, yeah...[XS:arthide,1][XS:ph,1][XS:client,5][E:48][STOPLIP:]
[XS:arttalk,1][C:26]Art:[C:C] Alright then, I'll just take my leave #now.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Weird that you didn't ask for #information or anything.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:arttalk,1][C:26]Art:[C:C] Right now, I don't need anything like #that. Otherwise I would've been pestering #you from the moment I entered.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I see. Careful out there.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:arttalk,1][C:26]Art:[C:C] Yeah, yeah...[XS:arthide,1][XS:ph,1][XS:client,5][E:49][STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Phew, it's been quite the day.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] At least the streets are calm today.[STOPLIP:]
[C:29]???:[C:C][XS:virgiliotalk,1] I have... *wheeze* arrived yet again at #the *cough* oh god... at the majestic hall #of heroes.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Calm until now.[STOPLIP:]
[SHOW:185,sprite_virgilio][XS:virgiliotalk,1][C:29]Virgilio:[C:C] We meet again, bartender.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] You look winded, Virgilio.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:virgiliotalk,1][C:29]Virgilio:[C:C] It's pronounced Veer-HEE-rio.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] No, I'm pretty sure it's Virgilio. You #said as much the last time you came.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:virgilioface,dissapoint][XS:virgiliotalk,1][C:29]Virgilio:[C:C] Pronunciations are a silly thing #society imposes on letters.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:virgiliotalk,1][C:29]Virgilio:[C:C] They want to be free! They want to #be pronounced however they want.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] ...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] You look winded, Virgilio.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:virgilioface,][XS:virgiliotalk,1][C:29]Virgilio:[C:C] We are all little toys winded by #the cruel hand of fate.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:virgiliotalk,1][C:29]Virgilio:[C:C] Just stumbling until it decides #not to wind us anymore.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] And yet, you're the only one in the #vicinity hyperventilating.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:virgilioface,serious][XS:virgiliotalk,1][C:29]Virgilio:[C:C] That's um... I was jogging.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Dressed like that?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:virgiliotalk,1][C:29]Virgilio:[C:C] I can jog however I want.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Yes you can.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] What can I get you?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:virgilioface,][XS:virgiliotalk,1][C:29]Virgilio:[C:C] Something fake.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Of course.[XS:ph,2][XS:mix,1][E:50][STOPLIP:]
[RES:][XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Here.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:virgiliotalk,1][C:29]Virgilio:[C:C] And this is?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Totally-not-Beer.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:virgiliotalk,1][C:29]Virgilio:[C:C] Ah, yes, just as fake as I want.[XS:ph,3][XS:mix,0][E:51][STOPLIP:]
[RES:][XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Here.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:virgiliotalk,1][C:29]Virgilio:[C:C] Why is this fake?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] It's not a blast from the moon, just a #drink named like one.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:virgiliotalk,1][C:29]Virgilio:[C:C] Ah, the moon. In the Tarot, the #Moon means "Dogs will howl in a river".[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] (Don't... correct him. Keep your mouth shut.)[XS:ph,3][XS:mix,0][E:52][STOPLIP:]
[RES:][XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Here.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:virgiliotalk,1][C:29]Virgilio:[C:C] Why is this fake?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] It's not a blast from a planet, it's #just a drink.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:virgiliotalk,1][C:29]Virgilio:[C:C] Interesting, very interesting.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] ...[XS:ph,3][XS:mix,0][E:53][STOPLIP:]
[RES:][XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Here you go.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:virgiliotalk,1][C:29]Virgilio:[C:C] And why is this fake?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] It's not a real Gut Punch, no matter #how you interpret that phrase.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:virgiliotalk,1][C:29]Virgilio:[C:C] Brilliant![XS:ph,3][XS:mix,0][E:54][STOPLIP:]
[RES:][XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Here you go.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:virgiliotalk,1][C:29]Virgilio:[C:C] Now, tell me why this is fake.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Because I didn't even try. [STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Your expectations of me giving a damn #about the abstract order are fake.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:virgilioface,smug][XS:virgiliotalk,1][C:29]Virgilio:[C:C] Bra-vo! Brilliant![STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] ...[XS:ph,3][XS:mix,0][E:55][STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Say, Virgilio. Where do you work?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:virgilioface,][XS:virgiliotalk,1][C:29]Virgilio:[C:C] I take the noble duties of curator #at the Steampunk Museum.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Really? What do you do?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:virgiliotalk,1][C:29]Virgilio:[C:C] I study everything that comes and #keep it clean for the people that visit #the premises.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:virgilioface,serious][XS:virgiliotalk,1][C:29]Virgilio:[C:C] But lately my duties have been #hindered by the museum's owner.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Really?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:virgiliotalk,1][C:29]Virgilio:[C:C] Yeah, he told me, "Stop touching #the exhibits! You're gonna break them." The #nerve of some people.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] E-Eh?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:virgiliotalk,1][C:29]Virgilio:[C:C] He still fails to realize that #I'M the curator there. [STOPLIP:]
[XS:virgiliotalk,1][C:29]Virgilio:[C:C] Without me, all those machines #would be rustier than they already are.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] ...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:virgiliotalk,1][C:29]Virgilio:[C:C] Even the visitors get that I'm the #one responsible for those, why can't the #owner realize that too?![STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] ...yeeeeeeah.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I bet he treats you like a janitor or #something like that.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:virgilioface,][XS:virgiliotalk,1][C:29]Virgilio:[C:C] Exactly![STOPLIP:]
[XS:virgiliotalk,1][C:29]Virgilio:[C:C] Okay then. Time for your next #challenge, bartender.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Challenge, he says...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:virgiliotalk,1][C:29]Virgilio:[C:C] I want purity.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] ...[XS:mix,1][XS:ph,4][E:56][STOPLIP:]
[RES:][XS:virgiliotalk,1][C:29]Virgilio:[C:C] How is this... "pure"?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] It's a drink. It's free from any human #sin. It can do no harm consciously.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:virgiliotalk,1][C:29]Virgilio:[C:C] Ah, yes... beautiful.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] *sigh*[XS:mix,0][XS:ph,5][E:57][STOPLIP:]

[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] That's an interesting reaction.[STOPLIP:]

[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] What do you think, Gil?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:giltalk,1][C:19]Gillian:[C:C] I know nothing of it.[STOPLIP:]

[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] Granted, Shibas could be seen as the #Japanese counterpart to Corgis.[STOPLIP:]

[XS:radtalk,1][C:32]Rad Shiba:[C:C] What? No! Don't lump me with #those Herding Supremacists.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:radtalk,1][C:32]Rad Shiba:[C:C] I have a more noble and benign #organization. I belong to CIRA.[STOPLIP:]

[XS:radtalk,1][C:32]Rad Shiba:[C:C] Canine Independent Rescue #Association. [STOPLIP:]
[XS:radtalk,1][C:32]Rad Shiba:[C:C] We give a place where dogs can be #dogs and save them from themselves.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:radtalk,1][C:32]Rad Shiba:[C:C] CIRA is what I love, but, damn is #it expensive sometimes.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:radtalk,1][C:32]Rad Shiba:[C:C] We decided to take part-time jobs #to help fund anything it needs. [STOPLIP:]
[XS:radtalk,1][C:32]Rad Shiba:[C:C] We want to help CIRA be the best #it can be.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] What do you do at CIRA?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:radtalk,1][C:32]Rad Shiba:[C:C] Pay treatment for hurt dogs, give #food to the hungry ones, play with the #bored ones...[STOPLIP:]

[XS:radtalk,1][C:32]Rad Shiba:[C:C] It seemed fun.[STOPLIP:]

[XS:radtalk,1][C:32]Rad Shiba:[C:C] Besides, it's close to home, so I #can get here by walking.[STOPLIP:]

[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Um... On a whim too, I guess.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I wanted a place where I could see #people come and go all the time.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] And bartending sounded a bit more #glamorous than just being a store clerk.[STOPLIP:]

[XS:seitalk,1][C:17]Sei:[C:C] Thanks![STOPLIP:]

[RES:][XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Here.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:seiface,sorry][XS:seitalk,1][C:17]Sei:[C:C] Eh... um...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:seitalk,1][C:17]Sei:[C:C] I-I'll save it for later.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Huh...[XS:mix,0][XS:ph,5][E:17][STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] So... how were things inside the bank?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:seiface,pain][XS:seitalk,1][C:17]Sei:[C:C] *cough* *cough* Come again?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] What happened inside the bank? How did #you manage to get through it?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:seiface,sorry][XS:seitalk,1][C:17]Sei:[C:C] Um... I was with this nice bunch of #people. Well... they were apparently nice #at the very least.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:seiface,][XS:seitalk,1][C:17]Sei:[C:C] We tried our best to find a way out of #the whole thing, cracking through the #security, finding safe spots.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:seiface,sad][XS:seitalk,1][C:17]Sei:[C:C] But then... [STOPLIP:]
[XS:seitalk,1][C:17]Sei:[C:C] Um...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:seitalk,1][C:17]Sei:[C:C] ...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Sorry for asking all that, it was #obviously over the line.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:seiface,sorry][XS:seitalk,1][C:17]Sei:[C:C] N-No, don't worry about it. It's just #the analgesics still numbing me.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:seiface,][XS:seitalk,1][C:17]Sei:[C:C] I'll take my leave now. Thank you for #everything, Jill.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Are you alright?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:seiface,happy][XS:seitalk,1][C:17]Sei:[C:C] I'm fine, I'm fine.[SHOWF:-70,sprite_seiwound][STOPLIP:]

[SHOW:185,sprite_gil][XS:giltalk,1][C:19]Gillian:[C:C] That girl saw some awful things #inside that bank.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:giltalk,1][C:19]Gillian:[C:C] The sight of desperate people #stuck in one building is enough to scar #anyone.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Maybe I shouldn't have said all that?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I mean, if it's true that she just woke #up and ended up here...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I don't know, I feel like I was being #too pushy.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:gilface,fucked][XS:giltalk,1][C:19]Gillian:[C:C] That's not something I can measure.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:gilface,][XS:giltalk,1][C:19]Gillian:[C:C] You were just worried. I bet she's #just still in shock.[STOPLIP:]

[XS:seitalk,1][C:17]Sei:[C:C] I-I'm not.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:seitalk,1][C:17]Sei:[C:C] So I wanted to know if you could lend #me your ear for a bit.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Well, I was gonna take my break...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:seiface,sorry][XS:seitalk,1][C:17]Sei:[C:C] Oh sorry...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] No, What I mean is that I could lend #you an ear if you don't mind going to the #back alley for a bit.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:seitalk,1][C:17]Sei:[C:C] Y-Yeah, please...[XS:ph,7][E:20][STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Want one?[STOPLIP:][SHOW:0,codec_cigar]
[XS:seitalk,1][C:17]Sei:[C:C] Sorry, I haven't smoked since high #school.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:seitalk,1][C:17]Sei:[C:C] But don't mind me though. Smoke ahead.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Thanks.[STOPLIP:][XS:codechide,1]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] So... why me?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:seitalk,1][C:17]Sei:[C:C] You're the closest friend I have nearby #that isn't avoiding me and.. and I think #I'm about to explode.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Why?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:seitalk,1][C:17]Sei:[C:C] B-B-Because I'm afraid! I'm terrified! #I'm scared![STOPLIP:]
[XS:seitalk,1][C:17]Sei:[C:C] My colonel was using me when I made #that errand, he saw me as a disposable pawn![STOPLIP:]
[XS:seitalk,1][C:17]Sei:[C:C] Then the whole thing got closed at the #bank. [STOPLIP:]
[XS:seitalk,1][C:17]Sei:[C:C] We were stuck there with no food or #water for three days![STOPLIP:]
[XS:seitalk,1][C:17]Sei:[C:C] I-I saw a man be beaten to death after #he found some snack in his pocket... that... #that...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:seitalk,1][C:17]Sei:[C:C] I... I...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] ...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:seitalk,1][C:17]Sei:[C:C] When I was in rescue duties I usually #dealt with collapsing buildings, fire, #that kind of stuff.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:seitalk,1][C:17]Sei:[C:C] B-But seeing people do that to other #people is just...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:seitalk,1][C:17]Sei:[C:C] I... *sniff* I...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Calm down, nobody will hurt you here.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:seitalk,1][C:17]Sei:[C:C] You sure?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I'll make sure of it, just... take #deep breaths.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:seitalk,1][C:17]Sei:[C:C] ...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I can't even imagine what happened #there. And truth be told, I don't want to #imagine it.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] But it's easy to tell you bottled up #everything while you were there.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:seitalk,1][C:17]Sei:[C:C] Is it obvious?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Kinda.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:seitalk,1][C:17]Sei:[C:C] Well, I had to get outta there. Fear #would've only gotten in the way.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:seitalk,1][C:17]Sei:[C:C] And besides, I made a promise to come #back to...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:seitalk,1][C:17]Sei:[C:C] Err...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Alright, what's the deal with Stella?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:seitalk,1][C:17]Sei:[C:C] Nothing, I'm just... [STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Afraid?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:seitalk,1][C:17]Sei:[C:C] The word loses meaning after using it #so much in so little time.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:seitalk,1][C:17]Sei:[C:C] She should've been worried sick, and I #couldn't call her after I came back. I'm #afraid of what she will say.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] She will insult you, she looks like #that kind of girl.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] But I'm betting all I have that she #will be quickly happy that you're fine and #alive.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:seitalk,1][C:17]Sei:[C:C] Yeah... you're right.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Think about it this way: A slap or #despair for what's left of her life.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:seitalk,1][C:17]Sei:[C:C] I wouldn't pretend to disappear, I #mean...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Besides, from what you tell me you're #pretty much only coming to your senses #today, right?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:seitalk,1][C:17]Sei:[C:C] Yeah.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:seitalk,1][C:17]Sei:[C:C] It's weird how everything can change in #such a short notice, you know?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:seitalk,1][C:17]Sei:[C:C] On Thursday I was a girl doing her #duties minding only her own business.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:seitalk,1][C:17]Sei:[C:C] Now I'm injured and woke up to find out #I can't go back to those duties.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:seitalk,1][C:17]Sei:[C:C] Part of me is happy, I knew full well #White Knights usually did more harm than #good.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:seitalk,1][C:17]Sei:[C:C] On the other hand, I really loved my #job. Now I'm stuck with nothing to do.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Yeah, I know how that is. The life #changing on such short notice part, I #mean.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:seitalk,1][C:17]Sei:[C:C] Really?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I would tell you why I know that, but #I think you should go see Stella right #now.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:seitalk,1][C:17]Sei:[C:C] Yeah, you're right.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Speaking of which... Hey Gil![STOPLIP:]
[XS:giltalk,1][C:19]Gillian:[C:C] What?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Do me a favor and escort Sei to... #wherever she needs to go, please.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:giltalk,1][C:19]Gillian:[C:C] Only if you cover my share of the #work.[STOPLIP:]

[XS:giltalk,1][C:19]Gillian:[C:C] Okay then. Let's go Miss.[STOPLIP:]

[XS:jamietalk,1][C:23]Jamie:[C:C] Ah Jill. Gillian isn't here I see.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Are you alright? You look distracted.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jamieface,surprise][XS:jamietalk,1][C:23]Jamie:[C:C] I'm fine, don't worry.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] If you say so.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] Jiiiiiiiill! Where do I take Fore if #he needs to use the bathroom?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] The cage has a small litter box #included![STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] Oooooh, that's convenient![STOPLIP:]
[XS:jamieface,][XS:jamietalk,1][C:23]Jamie:[C:C] Fore?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Fore's my cat. Some apartments in #my building are being inspected today...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] So I brought him to work in case #they enter my place while I'm gone.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jamietalk,1][C:23]Jamie:[C:C] Ah, I see.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] What can I get you?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jamietalk,1][C:23]Jamie:[C:C] The usual Gut Punch.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Coming right up.[XS:mix,1][XS:ph,2][E:22][STOPLIP:]
[RES:][XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Here.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jamietalk,1][C:23]Jamie:[C:C] I thought when someone ordered a Gut #Punch, you had to make a joke... [STOPLIP:]
[XS:jamietalk,1][C:23]Jamie:[C:C] ...about giving the client a punch to #the stomach or something.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Oh, that? In theory, yeah. Gil's the #only one that pays attention to that #though.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jamietalk,1][C:23]Jamie:[C:C] Really?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] He didn't receive proper training, he #read an old manual my boss had.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] There WAS some sort of stipulation #mentioning the need to say puns.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] But seems like it was some sort of #anti-counterfeit measure.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I mean, if they copied such a silly #stipulation, they'd be caught in the act.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jamietalk,1][C:23]Jamie:[C:C] Like when the dictionaries added fake #words to spot if someone else just copied #all of it?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Yup.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jamietalk,1][C:23]Jamie:[C:C] Why not tell him that?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] It's too amusing, to be honest.[XS:mix,0][XS:ph,3][E:23][STOPLIP:]
[RES:][XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Here you go.[STOPLIP:]

[RES:][XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Here you are.[STOPLIP:]

[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] So, what's on your mind that's #distracting you so much?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jamietalk,1][C:23]Jamie:[C:C] Nothing you should think about too #much.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jamietalk,1][C:23]Jamie:[C:C] It's like those times you just feel #uneasy for no good reason.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] You might have actual reasons to feel #that way though.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Come to think of it, "mercenary" is #quite the uncommon occupation, wouldn't #you say?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jamietalk,1][C:23]Jamie:[C:C] I like to see what I do as bounty #hunting actually.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] How so?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jamietalk,1][C:23]Jamie:[C:C] The only jobs I don't take are those #where I have to deal with people who just #happened to be in the wrong place.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jamietalk,1][C:23]Jamie:[C:C] There are some people willing to pay #to off someone that has done no wrong.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jamietalk,1][C:23]Jamie:[C:C] Things like killing someone that owns #a house in the way of some building, or a #nosy reporter.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jamietalk,1][C:23]Jamie:[C:C] I'm not better for turning a blind #eye to such requests, but I'm not gonna #be the one dealing with those.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] The bounty hunter part comes where?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jamietalk,1][C:23]Jamie:[C:C] If I'm sent to kill someone that has #done something like stealing or killing and #I get paid for it... [STOPLIP:]
[XS:jamietalk,1][C:23]Jamie:[C:C] You could see it as bounty hunting.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Yeah, I guess.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jamieface,shy][XS:jamietalk,1][C:23]Jamie:[C:C] It's just cheap justifications for #killing people though. In the end they're #cheap.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jamietalk,1][C:23]Jamie:[C:C] However, I won't be one to kill for #petty reasons like those.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jamieface,][XS:jamietalk,1][C:23]Jamie:[C:C] But let's change the subject here. #I'll have something bitter if you don't #mind.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Huh? Sure.[XS:mix,1][XS:ph,4][E:26][STOPLIP:]
[RES:][XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Here.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jamietalk,1][C:23]Jamie:[C:C] Ah yes...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] You just reminded me of my grandpa.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] He used to eat Bronson roots every #afternoon. He said they made him stronger.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jamietalk,1][C:23]Jamie:[C:C] Bronson roots have more nutrients per #gram than most vitamin supplements.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jamietalk,1][C:23]Jamie:[C:C] Your grandpa knew what he was doing.[XS:mix,0][XS:ph,5][E:27][STOPLIP:]
[RES:][XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Here.[STOPLIP:]

[RES:][XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Here.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jamietalk,1][C:23]Jamie:[C:C] Sure, if I put my mind on it I might #feel the Bronson taste but...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] S-Sorry.[XS:mix,0][XS:ph,5][E:29][STOPLIP:]
[XS:jamieface,shy][XS:jamietalk,1][C:23]Jamie:[C:C] It seems I always manage to make #you uncomfortable, Jill. Sorry.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Ah, no. Don't worry.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Although I guess it's mostly because I #can't wrap my mind around the whole "taking #a human life" thing.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Knowing you've killed people and #are now talking to me here? It's... #weird.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] It reminds me of when I first took #sex ed classes.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I couldn't wrap my mind around people #doing that stuff and living normally.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jamieface,][XS:jamietalk,1][C:23]Jamie:[C:C] Unlike with sex ed, it's better #that you stay that way, mind you.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jamietalk,1][C:23]Jamie:[C:C] Taking lives is not something you #should get used to.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jamietalk,1][C:23]Jamie:[C:C] Ah yes, I know a good way to change #the subject a bit.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jamietalk,1][C:23]Jamie:[C:C] Would you like to hear about the most #dangerous bounty hunter in the city?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] The way you said that was like offering #a tale to a bored kid. But yeah, I'd like to #hear that one.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jamietalk,1][C:23]Jamie:[C:C] You see, there was actually a #bounty hunter organization in this city #not too long ago.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jamietalk,1][C:23]Jamie:[C:C] Law enforcement would put a price #on a dangerous person's head and pay #for the proof of that person's death.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jamietalk,1][C:23]Jamie:[C:C] There was a guy everyone called Jet #Black James. He got the nickname because #he always wore black clothes.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jamietalk,1][C:23]Jamie:[C:C] The interesting thing was that the #black clothes were there to hide blood #stains he got from his contracts.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jamietalk,1][C:23]Jamie:[C:C] His tracking skills were top-notch, #his information network was the best. [STOPLIP:]
[XS:jamietalk,1][C:23]Jamie:[C:C] Some even joked he would finish #the bounty within half an hour, or #he wouldn't take the reward.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jamietalk,1][C:23]Jamie:[C:C] ...he was too good, in fact.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jamietalk,1][C:23]Jamie:[C:C] At one point he took all bounties and #didn't take a single reward. He was just #that crazy by then.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jamietalk,1][C:23]Jamie:[C:C] The last bounty that the #organization ever posted was on James' #head.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jamietalk,1][C:23]Jamie:[C:C] The police had him cornered. His last #words were "Send it all to my account" #before shooting himself.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Damn... why hasn't that been made into #a movie?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] So... there were no more bounties after #that?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jamietalk,1][C:23]Jamie:[C:C] A registered bounty hunter was #charged with many counts of manslaughter #using his old targets as proof.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jamietalk,1][C:23]Jamie:[C:C] If somebody else tried to recreate #the organization, the seed of doubt would #grow in little to no time.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jamietalk,1][C:23]Jamie:[C:C] What guarantee is there that such an #organization wouldn't actually be a trap?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jamietalk,1][C:23]Jamie:[C:C] They could use the registered #bounty hunters to take care of the #most bothersome criminals...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jamietalk,1][C:23]Jamie:[C:C] And then dispose of the bounty #hunters by pressing charges using their #targets as evidence.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jamietalk,1][C:23]Jamie:[C:C] So... no. Jet Black James made sure #that no law enforcement organization is #able to set up bounty hunting of any kind.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jamietalk,1][C:23]Jamie:[C:C] Ever since then, anyone crazy #enough to be a bounty hunter works #independently.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Were you part of that organization?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jamietalk,1][C:23]Jamie:[C:C] I've actually had those suspicions #I'm telling you about since the day I #heard such a thing exists.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jamietalk,1][C:23]Jamie:[C:C] Glad to know I wasn't just paranoid.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I don't know how well you changed the #subject, but that was certainly one #interesting story.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Just to make sure. You're not a rebuilt #Jet Black James or something, right?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jamieface,surprise][XS:jamietalk,1][C:23]Jamie:[C:C] The name James is pretty common, #Jill.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jamieface,][XS:jamietalk,1][C:23]Jamie:[C:C] Besides, if I remember correctly, his #real name was actually Theodore.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Oh.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jamietalk,1][C:23]Jamie:[C:C] That story left my throat a bit #dry. Get me a Beer, please.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Sure.[XS:ph,6][XS:mix,1][E:30][STOPLIP:]
[RES:][XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Here.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jamietalk,1][C:23]Jamie:[C:C] One of mankind's oldest friends. #Cheers.[XS:mix,0][XS:ph,7][E:31][STOPLIP:]
[RES:][XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Here you go.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jamietalk,1][C:23]Jamie:[C:C] It... tastes watered down.[XS:mix,0][XS:ph,7][E:32][STOPLIP:]
[RES:][XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] ...here.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jamietalk,1][C:23]Jamie:[C:C] Jill, get your mind out of that story #and focus, please.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Sorry.[XS:mix,0][XS:ph,7][E:33][STOPLIP:]
[XS:jamietalk,1][C:23]Jamie:[C:C] One obvious thing I see is that you #don't take the use of the word "kill" in #your stride the way Gillian does.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I'm not good with violence.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jamietalk,1][C:23]Jamie:[C:C] That's good.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jamietalk,1][C:23]Jamie:[C:C] It's interesting though. When I #compare you two, it's obvious Gillian has #seen quite the share of traumatic stuff.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] That guy's a handful because of that #sometimes.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Still, he's one of the most reliable #people I've ever met.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jamietalk,1][C:23]Jamie:[C:C] Where is he, by the way?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I asked him to keep an eye on a girl #that came here earlier.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I feel that if something happened, #he could resolve the situation.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] His nose must be itching after we #talked so much about him.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jamietalk,1][C:23]Jamie:[C:C] Yeah, maybe.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jamietalk,1][C:23]Jamie:[C:C] Well, I've got to go.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jamietalk,1][C:23]Jamie:[C:C] Send my regards to your boss and #Gillian.[XS:jamiehide,1][STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Will do.[XS:ph,1][XS:client,5][E:34][STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Man, today's been quite heavy.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Everyone-...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] ...wait.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] (If I say it out loud, I feel like I #will just tempt fate.)[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] (...but let's try it anyways.)[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Everyone has just been gloomy face #after gloomy face... and that dog.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I sure hope the next client changes #that.[STOPLIP:]
[SHOW:185,sprite_ingram][XS:intalk,1][C:21]Ingram:[C:C] So you still work here?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I KNEW IT! Err... I mean...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Quite the surprise to see you here #again, Mr. Ingram.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:intalk,1][C:21]Ingram:[C:C] Got out of my job, I needed a drink #badly, and I remembered this crackhouse was #nearby.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] What can I get you then?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:intalk,1][C:21]Ingram:[C:C] I'll have a Bleeding Jane.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] On it.[XS:mix,1][XS:ph,2][E:35][STOPLIP:]
[RES:][XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Here.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:intalk,1][C:21]Ingram:[C:C] Tastes just like the pasta sauce my mom #used to make. [STOPLIP:]
[XS:intalk,1][C:21]Ingram:[C:C] Watered down, artificial, and #nasty.[XS:mix,0][XS:ph,3][E:36][STOPLIP:]
[RES:][XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Here.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:intalk,1][C:21]Ingram:[C:C] Here we go again. Don't worry, I'm #actually in a not-foul mood for a change.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] (Riiiiiight.)[XS:mix,0][XS:ph,3][E:37][STOPLIP:]
[RES:][XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Here.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:intalk,1][C:21]Ingram:[C:C] This works too, I guess.[XS:mix,0][XS:ph,3][E:38][STOPLIP:]
[RES:][XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Here you go.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:intalk,1][C:21]Ingram:[C:C] Aaaaaaaaand we're up to a good #start.[XS:mix,0][XS:ph,3][E:39][STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] So, where do you work, Mr. Ingram?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:intalk,1][C:21]Ingram:[C:C] I don't have a specific job, but #there's this... well... "network" of #engineers in need of assistants.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:intalk,1][C:21]Ingram:[C:C] I have no idea what they do there, #but I can follow instructions and that's #all they need.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:intalk,1][C:21]Ingram:[C:C] Recently I've been working with this #Sylia girl working on some experimental #powered suits.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:intalk,1][C:21]Ingram:[C:C] My only duty is to give them #maintenance once a day.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] What's that about a "network"?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:intalk,1][C:21]Ingram:[C:C] All those nerds know each other and #they recommend me. [STOPLIP:]
[XS:intalk,1][C:21]Ingram:[C:C] I don't ask questions and quickly #learn to do whatever they need.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Huh, sounds nice.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:intalk,1][C:21]Ingram:[C:C] It's pretty monotonous at times #though.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:intalk,1][C:21]Ingram:[C:C] Why are you giving me that look?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] You're just more cheerful than the #last time you came.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:intalk,1][C:21]Ingram:[C:C] We all have good days and bad days. #Today just so happens to be a not-bad day.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:intalk,1][C:21]Ingram:[C:C] Besides, with everyone scared #shitless in their houses, the streets are #clear with no traffic jams. [STOPLIP:]
[XS:intalk,1][C:21]Ingram:[C:C] That's always a plus.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I guess...[XS:ph,4][E:40][STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I feel curious though, what's your #stance on the whole Apollo Trust Bank #thing?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:intalk,1][C:21]Ingram:[C:C] One corrupt organization showed its #true colors...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:intalk,1][C:21]Ingram:[C:C] And now the other corrupt #organizations are saving face #condemning them.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:intalk,1][C:21]Ingram:[C:C] The whole thing feels almost cartoony #in how they went full villain after the cat #got out of the bag.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:intalk,1][C:21]Ingram:[C:C] The whole deal with Alice_Rabbit's #intervention at the bank made it feel #more like a crazy PR stunt, though.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I don't know, sometimes life is just #that weird.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:intalk,1][C:21]Ingram:[C:C] Yeah, like you know anything about #life.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] ...[XS:ph,5][E:41][STOPLIP:]
[XS:intalk,1][C:21]Ingram:[C:C] It almost became a bad day though, #thanks to some teens on the way here.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] What did they do?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:intalk,1][C:21]Ingram:[C:C] It's not what they did, it's what #they said.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:intalk,1][C:21]Ingram:[C:C] They were talking about how they #should just go to Zaibatsu Corp's HQ and #blow it up.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:intalk,1][C:21]Ingram:[C:C] I've seen one too many kids #throwing around that "let's kill the king" #attitude when it comes to Zaibatsu Crap.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:intalk,1][C:21]Ingram:[C:C] Even if Zaibatsu Corp's building #suddenly went down, the ones behind it #would be still alive.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:intalk,1][C:21]Ingram:[C:C] Killing the head honcho just means #his or her duties go to the next rimjobber #on the totem.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:intalk,1][C:21]Ingram:[C:C] Hell, I bet they're plotting to #kill each other anyways.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:intalk,1][C:21]Ingram:[C:C] Kids these days see too many action #films where the rebels save the day by #killing the "Evil Corporation".[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Don't let it get to you.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:intalk,1][C:21]Ingram:[C:C] I don't, I just hate teenagers.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] It's interesting though. A big #corporation in control is somehow more #dangerous than a regular government.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:intalk,1][C:21]Ingram:[C:C] I wouldn't know. I'm not a political #person.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] (No shit.)[XS:ph,5][E:42][STOPLIP:]
[XS:intalk,1][C:21]Ingram:[C:C] Alright. Give me a Zen Star, and #try not to mess it up.[STOPLIP:]

[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Why order it then?[STOPLIP:]

[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] My boss? She...[STOPLIP:]

[XS:intalk,1][C:21]Ingram:[C:C] You have a dog here? And a cat?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] The cat's mine, his name's Fore. The #dog just... hangs around here.[XS:ph,8][E:48][STOPLIP:]
[XS:intalk,1][C:21]Ingram:[C:C] Heh, I remember my daughter wanted a #cat.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:intalk,1][C:21]Ingram:[C:C] I told her she couldn't have one but #she went and fed some stray that passed by #the house.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:intalk,1][C:21]Ingram:[C:C] Mozart, she called him.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:intalk,1][C:21]Ingram:[C:C] Even after all these years, that cat #still passes by the house from time to time.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:intalk,1][C:21]Ingram:[C:C] Hunts a couple of birds, sleeps in a #tree on the yard and leaves.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:intalk,1][C:21]Ingram:[C:C] My wife is devils-know-where and my #daughter is playing with her grandparents.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:intalk,1][C:21]Ingram:[C:C] How pathetic can I be when the only #creature that hasn't left me is some #fucking stray cat?![STOPLIP:]
[XS:intalk,1][C:21]Ingram:[C:C] ...[STOPLIP:]
Fore: Meow.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:intalk,1][C:21]Ingram:[C:C] What? Are you a stray too?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] He is.[STOPLIP:]

[XS:intalk,1][C:21]Ingram:[C:C] Alright, I'm gonna take my leave #here. [STOPLIP:]
[XS:intalk,1][C:21]Ingram:[C:C] I don't like eating or drinking #surrounded by animals and that cat.[XS:inghide,1][STOPLIP:]

[XS:intalk,1][C:21]Ingram:[C:C] As if.[XS:inhide,1][STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] You still came back though.[STOPLIP:]

[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] You seem to know a lot about cats.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:intalk,1][C:21]Ingram:[C:C] No, that's just common sense.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Do you like cats, Mr. Ingram?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:intalk,1][C:21]Ingram:[C:C] I don't dislike them.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:intalk,1][C:21]Ingram:[C:C] But I do dislike having animals #near me when I'm eating or drinking.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:intalk,1][C:21]Ingram:[C:C] So... I'll take my leave.[XS:inghide,1][STOPLIP:]

[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] You didn't expect me to really give you #a drink, right?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:normatalk,1][C:33]???:[C:C] Uh...[XS:ph,6][E:7][STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] No, because you barely took a sip of #the drink I made for myself.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] You felt like a good samaritan and #offered me to buy it from me so it's not #deducted from my pay.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Isn't that right, Gil?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:giltalk,1][C:19]Gillian:[C:C] Yup.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:normatalk,1][C:33]???:[C:C] Hey![STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I mean, if you ordered a drink, you #could report me but you would have to admit #to ordering it.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] And that would bring you a different #array of problems.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:normatalk,1][C:33]???:[C:C] ...oh.[XS:ph,6][E:8][STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] So, if you would please leave...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:normatalk,1][C:33]???:[C:C] I-I can't leave! Not after trying so #hard to even get here.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] ...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] *sigh*[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Alright, let's start from the #beginning, Miss... Norma.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:normatalk,1][C:33]Norma:[C:C] How did you know my name?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I saw your ID.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:normatalk,1][C:33]Norma:[C:C] It could've been a fake ID.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I don't think you're stupid enough to #make a fake ID that DOESN'T put you at 18 #at the very least.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:normatalk,1][C:33]Norma:[C:C] ...![STOPLIP:]
[XS:normatalk,1][C:33]Norma:[C:C] You're very sharp, Miss Bartender.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] You look like a nice girl, Norma. Why #come to a bar like this?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:normatalk,1][C:33]Norma:[C:C] Uh... um...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:normatalk,1][C:33]Norma:[C:C] You seem like you're in a bad mood, #Miss Bartender.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:giltalk,1][C:19]Gillian:[C:C] Nah, she's just like that all the #time.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Shut up.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] *sigh* Sorry if I've been harsh.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] These last couple of days have #been... heavy.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] And having someone underage here #reminds me of a certain... incident #from last week.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:normatalk,1][C:33]Norma:[C:C] Incident?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Well...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] ...don't change the subject, young #lady. Why did you come here?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:normatalk,1][C:33]Norma:[C:C] What do you care?! I can do whatever #I want![STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Unless it's illegal. In which case #anyone can, should, and probably will stop #you.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:normatalk,1][C:33]Norma:[C:C] ...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:normatalk,1][C:33]Norma:[C:C] I just... just wanted to be more #wild, you know?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Wild?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:normatalk,1][C:33]Norma:[C:C] My mom puts way too many expectations #on my shoulders.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:normatalk,1][C:33]Norma:[C:C] I've always been out to make sure I #don't disappoint her.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:normatalk,1][C:33]Norma:[C:C] But it's never enough! It's not good #enough to have good grades.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:normatalk,1][C:33]Norma:[C:C] She also wants me to go out and take #a college preparation course.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:normatalk,1][C:33]Norma:[C:C] And I'm tired! I don't wanna do things #for her anymore![STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] So you came to a bar.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:normatalk,1][C:33]Norma:[C:C] Maybe if I came back home smelling #like alcohol, she would leave me alone.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:normatalk,1][C:33]Norma:[C:C] If I'm not good enough for her, I #might as well kill any hope she has in #me.[XS:ph,7][E:9][STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] You remind me of this client I had a #while ago.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] She... um... passed out in the street #and my boss brought her here.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Your attitude reminds me of how she #got once drunk.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:normatalk,1][C:33]Norma:[C:C] Huh?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Yeah, bitter about the pressure exerted #on her.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Hers was workplace pressure, but you #still remind me a lot of her.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:normatalk,1][C:33]Norma:[C:C] So what of it?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] So, before you think anything else, #calm down.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I don't want you to go through what #she went through.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:normatalk,1][C:33]Norma:[C:C] I-I'm calm...[XS:ph,8][E:10][STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] It's funny. I have a friend who is #also being pressured by her mother.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:normatalk,1][C:33]Norma:[C:C] Really?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Yeah, but in her case, it's being #pressured to settle down and form a family.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:normatalk,1][C:33]Norma:[C:C] Oh...[XS:ph,8][E:11][STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] So, let me get this straight. You came #here to make your mother disappointed?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:normatalk,1][C:33]Norma:[C:C] Yes.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Do you like alcohol?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:normatalk,1][C:33]Norma:[C:C] Actually, I think it's nasty.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Then you're doing things wrong.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:normatalk,1][C:33]Norma:[C:C] What?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] If you're gonna disappoint your mom, #at least do it with something you like.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Like... become a belly dancer because #you wanna be a belly dancer.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Otherwise you're just trying to hurt #her for the sake of hurting her.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Let's start with something. What do #you like doing?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:normatalk,1][C:33]Norma:[C:C] I... don't know.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:normatalk,1][C:33]Norma:[C:C] I've been so focused on trying to be #good enough that I haven't been able to #think about what I wanna do.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Don't you think you should start there?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:normatalk,1][C:33]Norma:[C:C] Eh?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] What good is doing something just for #the sake of hurting someone?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] If she gets disappointed in you over #something you like doing, you have the #right to protest.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] But if you're hurting her by hurting #yourself over something you don't enjoy...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:normatalk,1][C:33]Norma:[C:C] Sounds silly, huh.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Very.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Go home. Do some self-discovery before #hurting your mom, would you?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Or at the very least, humor her #until you're old enough to move out.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:normatalk,1][C:33]Norma:[C:C] Yeah, you're right.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:normatalk,1][C:33]Norma:[C:C] ...thanks, Miss Bartender.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Call me Jill.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:normatalk,1][C:33]Norma:[C:C] Jill? Alright![XS:normahide,1][STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Careful out there![STOPLIP:]
[XS:giltalk,1][C:19]Gillian:[C:C] In the end you did humor her for a #bit.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Shut up.[XS:ph,1][XS:client,2][E:12][STOPLIP:]

[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] So, what do you work as, Mario?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:marioface,smile][XS:mariotalk,1][C:34]Mario:[C:C] I live to paint the roads black #with my wheels, leaving the trail of my #engine's sounds wherever I go.[STOPLIP:]

[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Rebels can't maintain those bikes for #too long. What's your DAY job?[STOPLIP:]

[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] That's really appropriate, I guess.[STOPLIP:]

[XS:mariotalk,1][C:34]Mario:[C:C] I'm from a courier company. So it's #kinda like mail, I guess.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:mariotalk,1][C:34]Mario:[C:C] I'm always around the city and I #know it like the palm of my hand.[STOPLIP:]

[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] That's nice. I still can't take #detours without feeling totally lost.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:marioface,smile][XS:mariotalk,1][C:34]Mario:[C:C] Try guiding yourself with the help of #landmarks. Around here, the Saber Station's #antenna is a good reference.[STOPLIP:]

[XS:marioface,surprise][XS:mariotalk,1][C:34]Mario:[C:C] Ugh...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] *sigh* It's just advice. Don't take #it too personally.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:marioface,][XS:mariotalk,1][C:34]Mario:[C:C] No, you're right. I don't have to be #that way.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Unless you want to. I ain't stopping #you there.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:mariotalk,1][C:34]Mario:[C:C] Yeah, but I don't. It's tiring and I #don't feel good.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] If you want, you can try to stay quiet. #You were pretty intimidating when you did #that.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:mariotalk,1][C:34]Mario:[C:C] I see.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Will you have another drink or did you #have too many already?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:mariotalk,1][C:34]Mario:[C:C] I can handle another one. Get me a #Fringe Weaver.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Sure.[XS:ph,6][XS:mix,1][E:21][STOPLIP:]

[XS:marioface,nothet][XS:mariotalk,1][C:34]Mario:[C:C] Is this punishment for trying to #look tough?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Eh? Maybe... I guess.[XS:ph,7][XS:mix,0][E:23][STOPLIP:]
[XS:marioface,nothet][RES:][XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Here you are.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:mariotalk,1][C:34]Mario:[C:C] This isn't my order.[STOPLIP:]

[XS:marioface,][XS:mariotalk,1][C:34]Mario:[C:C] Say, that guy over there.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Gil? What's up with him?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:mariotalk,1][C:34]Mario:[C:C] Are you dating him?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] No.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:mariotalk,1][C:34]Mario:[C:C] Is he seeing anyone?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Not as far as I know.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:mariotalk,1][C:34]Mario:[C:C] Do you think he...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] He...?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:marioface,surprise][XS:mariotalk,1][C:34]Mario:[C:C] No, nevermind! I said nothing.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:marioface,][XS:mariotalk,1][C:34]Mario:[C:C] Thank you for everything.[XS:mariohide,1][STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Please come again.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] ...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Ah, Gil. You heartbreaking fuckboy.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:giltalk,1][C:19]Gillian:[C:C] Eh? What?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Nothing.[XS:ph,8][E:25][STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Say, Mario. You really like bikes, #huh?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:marioface,][XS:mariotalk,1][C:34]Mario:[C:C] I guess, yeah.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:mariotalk,1][C:34]Mario:[C:C] Whenever I got into a car, I #always felt like I was in some sort #of cage.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:marioface,smile][XS:mariotalk,1][C:34]Mario:[C:C] With a motorcycle, I can feel the #wind and everything on my face first.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:mariotalk,1][C:34]Mario:[C:C] It's... liberating, you know?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Ah, I see.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:marioface,nothet][XS:mariotalk,1][C:34]Mario:[C:C] Besides, I get motion sickness in cars #only for some reason.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Motion sickness is something I've #always found interesting.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:marioface,][XS:mariotalk,1][C:34]Mario:[C:C] Why?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Well, you get dizzy when too many #movements are happening at once. And then #the body gets that signal and throws up.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] But you throw up because your body #thinks the dizziness is due to eating #something bad.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] We take it for granted, but humans #were not made to fly or move that fast.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Motion sickness is a bug of sorts.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:mariotalk,1][C:34]Mario:[C:C] Bug?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Like the ones in computers.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:marioface,nothet][XS:mariotalk,1][C:34]Mario:[C:C] I have no idea what you're talking #about.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:marioface,][XS:mariotalk,1][C:34]Mario:[C:C] Alright then, I'll be leaving now. #Thank you for everything.[XS:mariohide,1][STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Please, come again.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:giltalk,1][C:19]Gillian:[C:C] He didn't look like a "Mario" to #me.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Same.[XS:ph,8][E:26][STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I'll be taking my break now, Gil.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:giltalk,1][C:19]Gillian:[C:C] Okay. Careful.[XS:ph,9][E:27][STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Alright, back to business.[STOPLIP:]

[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Any luck?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:danaface,][XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] I managed to give out some flyers, but #most people were distracted by the #dog.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:danaface,worry][XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] I had to tell them to go to the Rad Shiba #Bar to get their attention. [STOPLIP:]

[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Wow. You really are bad with dogs, eh?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:doroface,think][XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] Did I make it too obvious?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Why though?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] I don't know.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:doroface,][XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] Oh, hey John![STOPLIP:]
[XS:giltalk,1][C:19]Gillian:[C:C] Hey.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] I think it's because I just got #that trait at random.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] When AIs are created, they're #given fears or tastes completely at #random.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] I just happened to get stuck with #a fear of dogs and chinchillas.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Chinchillas are extinct, though.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:doroface,think][XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] Thank gods.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] What will you have?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:doroface,][XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] Well, it's that time of the month, #so I'll have a Bleeding Jane.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Coming right... um... up.[XS:mix,1][XS:ph,2][E:28][STOPLIP:]
[RES:][XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Here.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] "That time of the month"... do Lilim #menstruate?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] Yes, oil.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:doroface,smug][XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] No, silly. We don't.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:doroface,][XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] There are a few maintenance things #we have to do every month, but those are a #different story.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Then what time of the month is it?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:doroface,pachi][XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] The time when I feel like drinking #a Bleeding Jane.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] ...[XS:ph,3][XS:mix,0][E:29][STOPLIP:]
[RES:][XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Here you go.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] Ah, honey... I can't get angry at #you for messing up my order with this.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] Your paycheck will be the one to #suffer, but I'm not angry.[XS:ph,3][XS:mix,0][E:30][STOPLIP:]
[RES:][XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Here you go.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] This isn't Jane and she isn't #bleeding. [STOPLIP:]
[XS:doroface,think][XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] Do you really want me to get violent #and find the drink by myself, honey?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:doroface,][XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] Nah, just kidding, but be careful #with my drinks.[XS:ph,3][XS:mix,0][E:31][STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] So, how's business?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:doroface,][XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] You'd be surprised by how many #people get struck by holiday depression #and need some Dorothy in their lives.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:doroface,think][XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] Although it's also the season with #the most competition.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I didn't know you had competition.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:doroface,][XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] Of course I do, both humans and #Lilim. Half of them got a sexy Santa #dress and that's not fair![STOPLIP:]
[XS:doroface,sad][XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] They were sold out! I wanted one #too![STOPLIP:]
[XS:doroface,][XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] But maybe it's better that way.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] How so?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] The other girls like to dress in #skimpy clothes and show lots of skin. That #scares off lots of people.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] I learned that the best way to #maintain regulars is to just dress #normally.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Really?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] If I dress normally, they can just #pretend I'm some acquaintance. No need to #hide me until reaching the room.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] Hell, some even invite me to a #dinner or a movie before anything else.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:doroface,think][XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] Although I must say it's a bit hard #to get the clients in the first place. They #can't tell what I do at a glance.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] And the first time they see me #after a call they think I'm just making a #prank or something.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Huh, I never saw it that way.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Which reminds me. Do you serve only #humans or do you serve Lilim too?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:doroface,][XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] Humans only, but I do have an "at #least 40% organic" policy.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] 40%?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] Human from the neck up. Dicks #preferably organic, but I can make #exceptions.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] For females, I'm not so strict #though.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Hm...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] Why? Do you know someone that #might be interested?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] No, just mere curiosity.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] Well, your curiosity left me #thirsty. Get me a Blue Fairy. A big one, #would you?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Alright.[XS:mix,1][XS:ph,4][E:32][STOPLIP:]
[RES:][XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Here you go.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] I wonder if anyone has seen fairies #after a couple of these.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Some guy tested that by drinking as #many as he could. [STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] He thought he saw one, but he was #dizzy and what he'd seen was his puke.[STOPLIP:]

[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] You know, earlier today there was a #Mega Christmas spirit around here.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:doroface,][XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] What about it?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] (That I'm realizing I made a fuss #about serving drinks to someone underaged, but #here I am.)[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Nothing in particular, just a funny #story.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:doroface,pachi][XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] I have a funny story myself. It's #the Mega Santa prank![STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] *sigh* The what?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:doroface,smug][XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] Heh. It's a prank I pull every year.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:doroface,][XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] First, I pick a mall, wait for a #day with lots of people.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] Then I go to Santa's lap, and when #he asks what I want...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] I say in the most innocent tone I #can muster...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:doroface,pachi][XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] "I want you to make me a woman!"[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] Sometimes they try to cover it up. #"The Lilim wants to be human!"[STOPLIP:]
[XS:doroface,smug][XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] It's then when I say, "No, I. Want. #You."[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] ...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:doroface,think][XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] After that I say: "Well, at the #very least I want a dildo, a big pink one. #Or a very bumpy cucumber!"[STOPLIP:]
[XS:doroface,][XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] Sometimes I spice it up. Instead of #cucumbers I ask for a pony and a crane to #lift him.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] I once thought about screaming, #"Help! I'm being molested!"[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] But I remembered it was a prank, I #didn't want to ruin the guy's life.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] How considerate.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] Although I did get a client that #way. He became a regular soon after.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Huh.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] But yeah, three years and they still #don't get that it's always me.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Oh yeah, how old are you?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:doroface,pachi][XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] Old enough for anything you want.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Numbers. I need numbers.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:doroface,smug][XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] Are you really asking a girl her #age that way? Okay then, tell me your age #first.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] 27.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:doroface,angry][XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] No fair! You didn't get fidgety or #anything like that.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] Fiiiine. I'll tell you.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:doroface,][XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] My model's designed to look between #10 to 13 years old. But my last checkup said #my mental age was 24.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] How long since you've been deployed?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:doroface,smug][XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] That's a secret I'll keep with me~[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Fair enough.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:doroface,][XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] I expected you to get all #uncomfortable talking about your age #though. Why didn't you?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] With how dangerous everything's been #lately, every year you get matters.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Getting old isn't a curse, it's an #achievement.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] You should make a shirt with that. #Because if you don't, I will.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Feel free to do so.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Do you want anything else?[STOPLIP:]

[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] A Meg-... eh?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] That Mega Santa that became a #regular of mine. He once invited like 8 #of his friends.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] Gangbangs are funny because with #that many guys, no one knows what to do.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] They think about using you too, but #they don't wanna touch the other guys.[STOPLIP:]

[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] I've been in many, but I still #don't get the charm of gangbangs. Orgies I #can see though.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] Well, either remembering that got #me turned on or the alcohol is kicking in.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] Either way, I'm leaving. Bye, honey![XS:dorohide,1][STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] ...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:giltalk,1][C:19]Gillian:[C:C] That girl has seen some shit.[STOPLIP:]

[XS:doroface,][XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] Hey, honey. What day's today?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Wednesday.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] No, the number. The number![STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Number? 21.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Shouldn't you know that?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:doroface,angry][XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] I'm a Lilim, not a calendar.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I thought you would know that much.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] Next you're gonna tell me to make #some convoluted calculation.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Y-You can't?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:doroface,think][XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] I could if I put my mind to it, #but it's not something I have quick access #to.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] Yes, I have an inner calendar and #a calculator, but those are used in lots of #other operations every second.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:doroface,][XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] I COULD do all that, but it's a #lot quicker to just ask you.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I see.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Why do you need the date though?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:doroface,think][XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] I have something to do on the #26th... I've been avoiding it for a while #now.[STOPLIP:][ANNA:]
[XS:doroface,][XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] Oh! But don't worry, it's nothing #dangerous or anything like that, just... #heavy.[STOPLIP:]

[XS:dorotalk,1][C:18]Dorothy:[C:C] Would you help me?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] If you tell me what it is you need #help with.[STOPLIP:]

[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Bye.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:giltalk,1][C:19]Gillian:[C:C] Do you think she really can't access #calendars and calculators that easily?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I guess it's kinda like how even if #a text processor can access the computer's #calendar, you don't use it for that.[XS:ph,1][XS:client,4][E:42][STOPLIP:]
[XS:giltalk,1][C:19]Gillian:[C:C] Why didn't you tell her you missed #her yesterday?[STOPLIP:]

[XS:gabytalk,1][C:43]???:[C:C] ...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:giltalk,1][C:19]Gillian:[C:C] Maybe the bar got popular at some #middle school?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] That would be a hassle.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Oh gods, maybe Alma was right.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:giltalk,1][C:19]Gillian:[C:C] Right about what?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Well, the other day I was asking her #her opinion on the whole Alice_Rabbit #thing.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Before the whole massive transmission #hack thing.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] And at some point she talked about #hacking becoming a fad and said:[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] "Imagine if, suddenly, a group of #tweens broke into this bar and started #asking for drinks."[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] And today, there have been two kids #already.[STOPLIP:]

[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Eeeeeh...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:giltalk,1][C:19]Gillian:[C:C] How would bartending become a fad?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Maybe a cartoon?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:giltalk,1][C:19]Gillian:[C:C] Kids' cartoons don't show any #alcohol.[STOPLIP:]

[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] This is no place for kids, so you #should... [STOPLIP:]
[XS:gabytalk,1][C:43]???:[C:C] ...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Um...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Gil, she's staring too much. And #she's saying nothing.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:giltalk,1][C:19]Gillian:[C:C] She's not ordering anything, she's #not causing trouble and there's nothing #inappropriate here.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:giltalk,1][C:19]Gillian:[C:C] I mean, nothing inappropriate aside #from alcohol. But alcohol is everywhere #anyways.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] So what do you suggest?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:giltalk,1][C:19]Gillian:[C:C] Let her be? Maybe she's just curious #about the bar.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] She's saying nothing.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:giltalk,1][C:19]Gillian:[C:C] Maybe she's curious AND shy.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:giltalk,1][C:19]Gillian:[C:C] Also, it's rude to speak about #people you have in front of you like they #can't hear you.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Yeah...[STOPLIP:]

[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Am I happy? Well... that's a weird #question.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I'm not sad, I guess. I'm not jubilant, #but...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:gabytalk,1][C:43]???:[C:C] No, I mean, are you happy with your #life? With your choices?[STOPLIP:]

[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I mean, I might have one or two regrets #but I guess it could be worse.[STOPLIP:]

[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] ... [STOPLIP:]
[XS:giltalk,1][C:19]Gillian:[C:C] Hey Jill.[STOPLIP:]
[SHAKE:][XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] BWAH![STOPLIP:]
[XS:giltalk,1][C:19]Gillian:[C:C] ...again? Aren't you a bit on edge?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Maybe. What did you want?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:giltalk,1][C:19]Gillian:[C:C] Didn't you borrow the screwdriver #the other day?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I did, why?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:giltalk,1][C:19]Gillian:[C:C] I forgot to take the coins from #the arcades in the corner last week.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:giltalk,1][C:19]Gillian:[C:C] So I need it to take them out.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Oh, let's see...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Here.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] It's not like they see much action #these days anyways.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:giltalk,1][C:19]Gillian:[C:C] Chump change is still money. Pocket #change has saved my ass many times.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] What? Did you throw it in someone's #face while escaping?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:giltalk,1][C:19]Gillian:[C:C] That only happened once and the old #lady started it![STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] ...right.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Why does an arcade still use coins #nowadays? Or physical money, when you get #down to it.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:giltalk,1][C:19]Gillian:[C:C] For the reason arcades still exist. #Nostalgia.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Maybe.[STOPLIP:]

[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Yeah. She's actually my girlfr-... my #ex's sister.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Um... so, how have you been doing?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:gabytalk,1][C:43]Gaby:[C:C] I actually had to transfer schools, and #I managed to skip a grade thanks to the #admission tests.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:gabytalk,1][C:43]Gaby:[C:C] I'll be out of middle school next year.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] You've always been a smart one, so #it's no surprise.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Have you thought about what you want #to study in college? You always said you #wanted to be a scientist.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:gabytalk,1][C:43]Gaby:[C:C] I don't know yet. I guess I still have #a couple of years to think about that.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Well, don't feel pressured about #that. Maybe you'll need a sabbatical #year?[STOPLIP:]

[XS:giltalk,1][C:19]Gillian:[C:C] Wait, who's Lenore?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Her sister, she's... um... she was my #girlfriend.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:giltalk,1][C:19]Gillian:[C:C] So you actually had a relationship #with something that's not a cat? Color me #surprised![STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Hey... don't talk shit about my baby.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] *ahem*[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] So, how's Lenore doing?[STOPLIP:]

[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] ...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Sorry, I don't think I heard right.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:gabytalk,1][C:43]Gaby:[C:C] My sister is dead, Jill. She died last #Saturday. I came all the way to tell you #the news.[STOPLIP:]

[XS:gabytalk,1][C:43]Gaby:[C:C] My sister was left to suffer her #disease alone while you were all merry #here, mixing drinks and chatting![STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Wait, Lenore was sick? Of what? Since #when?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:gabyface,][XS:gabytalk,1][C:43]Gaby:[C:C] Localized Nanomachine Rejection. It #gave her a heart attack.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:gabytalk,1][C:43]Gaby:[C:C] She started complaining about chest #pains not long after you left.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:gabyface,angry][XS:gabytalk,1][C:43]Gaby:[C:C] Was all the talk about getting your #freedom worth it, Jill?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:gabyface,sad][XS:gabytalk,1][C:43]Gaby:[C:C] Was your right to be merry worth the #life of my sister?![STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Why are you lashing out at me like #that?! Did I infect her with the disease #that killed her?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:gabyface,pain][XS:gabytalk,1][C:43]Gaby:[C:C] No, but. It's too much of a coincidence #that she started getting worse and worse #right after you left![STOPLIP:]
[XS:gabyface,sad][XS:gabytalk,1][C:43]Gaby:[C:C] She got visibly sick after your #fight. It'd be no surprise if that #fight played a key role in killing her![STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] But that's just speculation, you can't #expect-... [STOPLIP:]
[XS:gabyface,pain][XS:gabytalk,1][C:43]Gaby:[C:C] And all of that because you wanted #"freedom"?![STOPLIP:]
[XS:gabytalk,1][C:43]Gaby:[C:C] What kind of freedom is so #enticing that it makes you hurt a #nice three-year-old relationship?![STOPLIP:]
[XS:gabyface,sad][XS:gabytalk,1][C:43]Gaby:[C:C] Was this freedom so important you cut #all contact with us?![STOPLIP:]

[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Do you even understand the fear of #feeling your youth slip through your #fingers?![STOPLIP:]

[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Maybe if I wasn't such a selfish little #shit...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Maybe...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] ...m-maybe... [STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] *sniff*[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] ... [STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Thanks, Boss. I really needed this.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] Do you want me to stay with you today?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Thanks, but I actually need some time #for myself.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Some me time to put my thoughts in #order.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] Yeah, I understand.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] But don't do anything funny, you hear #me?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] If any weird thoughts come to you, or #if you feel too anxious, call me.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Yeah.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] ...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] Hey Fore! She's in your care, you hear?[STOPLIP:]
Fore: Meow.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] Remember to call me. I'll call you #later to check on you nonetheless.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] ...[XS:ph,2][E:47][STOPLIP:]

[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] Доброго вечора.[STOPLIP:]
[SHOW:185,sprite_gil][C:19]???:[C:C][XS:giltalk,1] Ах, привіт Джилл.[XS:giltalk,0][STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] ...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] Ох. Привіт, Джон.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:gilface,fucked][C:19]???:[C:C][XS:giltalk,1] ...[XS:giltalk,0][STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] Джил, коли ти вже визнаєш, що у #тебе фізіономія типового Джона?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:gilface,cods][XS:giltalk,1][C:19]Джилліан:[C:C] Коли ти дозволиш людям #називати тебе Джулс.[XS:giltalk,0][STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] Цить.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:gilface,][XS:giltalk,1][C:19]Джилліан:[C:C] З тобою все гаразд? Ти виглядаєш #розгублено.[XS:giltalk,0][STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] А де Бос?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:giltalk,1][C:19]Джилліан:[C:C] Чорт зна. Вона пішла по магазинах #і...[XS:giltalk,0][STOPLIP:]
[XS:gilface,fucked][XS:giltalk,1][C:19]Джилліан:[C:C] Ти взагалі чула, що я тільки що #тобі сказав?[XS:giltalk,0][STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] Ти щось казав?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:giltalk,1][C:19]Джилліан:[C:C] Так. Я сказав, що у тебе #розгублений вигляд. Дуже, дуже розгублений.[XS:giltalk,0][STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] Не городи нісенітниці. Я просто роздумую,#про... деякі речі.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:gilface,][XS:giltalk,1][C:19]Джилліан:[C:C] Про що саме?[XS:giltalk,0][STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] Ну, мені треба сплатити рахунки до #тридцятого, а це завжди проблемно, і... [STOPLIP:]
[XS:giltalk,1][C:19]Джилліан:[C:C] А-а.[XS:giltalk,0][STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] (Крім того, учора я, як виявилося, #цілу годину розмовляла сама з собою.)[ANNA:][STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] (А ще я два дні тому дізналася, що цей бар #знаходиться на межі закриття.)[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] (Тому я не тільки втрачаю #життєву стабільність, я починаю їхати з глузду.)[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] (Окрім цього, кастрація Моськи лишила #мене з повністю пустим гаманцем і я буду #виселена, якщо знову пропущу плату за оренду...)[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] (І ще, по всій моїй квартирі купа #пивних банок, та...)[STOPLIP:]
[XS:giltalk,1][C:19]Джилліан:[C:C] Джилл![XS:giltalk,0][STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] Вибач, ти щось сказав?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:gilface,fucked][XS:giltalk,1][C:19]Джилліан:[C:C] ...ти взагалі зможеш сьогодні працювати?[XS:giltalk,0][STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] Звичайно я можу![STOPLIP:]
[XS:gilface,][XS:giltalk,1][C:19]Джилліан:[C:C] Тоді, давай повторимо основи? #Про всяк випадок.[XS:giltalk,0][STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] ...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:giltalk,1][C:19]Джилліан:[C:C] Якщо ти зробиш мені Піаніста, я #пропущу все інше. Але. Послухай мене тут #секундочку, добре?[XS:giltalk,0][STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] ...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:giltalk,1][C:19]Джилліан:[C:C] Давай почнемо з Цукрового Приливу. [XS:giltalk,0][STOPLIP:]
[XS:giltalk,1][C:19]Джилліан:[C:C] Знайди потрібний рецепт в базі даних. #Вікно программи з'явиться у верхньому лівому куті.[XS:giltalk,0][STOPLIP:]
[XS:giltalk,1][C:19]Джилліан:[C:C] Ти також можеш сортувати напої за #типами наприклад "Солодкі" або ж "Чоловічі".[XS:giltalk,0][STOPLIP:]
[XS:giltalk,1][C:19]Джилліан:[C:C] Перетягни потрібну кількість #інгрідієнтів з їхніх клітинок, що з правої сторони, #до центру шейкера.[XS:giltalk,0][STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] Джил...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:giltalk,1][C:19]Джилліан:[C:C] Коли закінчиш, натисни кнопку "Змішати", #а потім ще раз, для того щоб зупинити змішування.[XS:giltalk,0][STOPLIP:]
[XS:giltalk,1][C:19]Джилліан:[C:C] Натисни на кнопку подачі, чи на сам #коктейль для того, щоб #подати його і на цьому все.[XS:giltalk,0][STOPLIP:]
[XS:giltalk,1][C:19]Джилліан:[C:C] Ох, але, якщо напій виглядає #спаплюженим, тобі потрібно буде натиснути #кнопку "Ресет" та спробувати ще раз.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:giltalk,1][C:19]Джилліан:[C:C] Ти можеш натиснути "Ресет" у будь-який #час. Навіть, якщо шейкер ще рухається. Не бійся #використовувати її.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] Джил, я та хто пройшла офіційні курси BTC.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:gilface,cods][XS:giltalk,1][C:19]Джилліан:[C:C] Тоді це не має бути проблемою![XS:giltalk,0][STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] *зітхання*[XS:ph,2][XS:mix,1][E:2][STOPLIP:]
[RES:][XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] Ось. Тепер щасливий?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:gilface,][XS:giltalk,1][C:19]Джилліан:[C:C] Трохи, але не зовсім. Давай #зробимо ще один.[XS:giltalk,0][STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] *зітхання*[STOPLIP:]
[XS:gilface,fucked][XS:giltalk,1][C:19]Джилліан:[C:C] Я знаю, знаю. Будь ласкава.[XS:giltalk,0][XS:mix,0][XS:ph,3][E:3][STOPLIP:]
[RES:][XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] Ось.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:gilface,fucked][XS:giltalk,1][C:19]Джилліан:[C:C] Ти... витратила багато часу на змішування. #Воно взбовталося та вийшов Бенгальский Вогник.[XS:giltalk,0][STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] ...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:gilface,][XS:giltalk,1][C:19]Джилліан:[C:C] Д-давай спробуємо щось інше.[XS:giltalk,0][XS:mix,0][XS:ph,3][E:4][STOPLIP:]
[RES:][XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] Ось. Щасливий?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:gilface,surprise][XS:giltalk,1][C:19]Джилліан:[C:C] Так. Дуже. Я визнаю поразку.[XS:giltalk,0][STOPLIP:]
[XS:gilface,][XS:giltalk,1][C:19]Джилліан:[C:C] Тепер, давай до роботи.[XS:giltalk,0][XS:mix,0][XS:ph,5][E:5][STOPLIP:]
[RES:][XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] Ось.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:gilface,fucked][XS:giltalk,1][C:19]Джилліан:[C:C] Це... не Цукровий Прилив.[XS:giltalk,0][STOPLIP:]
[XS:giltalk,1][C:19]Джилліан:[C:C] Умм... Давай спробємо щось інше.[XS:giltalk,0][XS:mix,0][XS:ph,3][E:6][STOPLIP:]
[XS:gilface,][XS:giltalk,1][C:19]Джилліан:[C:C] Деякі напої треба взбовтувати.[XS:giltalk,0][STOPLIP:]
[XS:giltalk,1][C:19]Джилліан:[C:C] Це робиться через змішування коктейлю #більше 5 секунд. Ти зможеш побачити, що він взбовтаний, #коли шейкер почне рухатись швидше.[XS:giltalk,0][STOPLIP:]
[XS:giltalk,1][C:19]Джилліан:[C:C] Ти також маєш перевіряти, чи потрібно #подавати напій "на камінні", абож витримати.[XS:giltalk,0][STOPLIP:]
[XS:giltalk,1][C:19]Джилліан:[C:C] Перевір кнопки "Лід" та "Витримка" з #правої сторони та обирай ту, що тобі потрібна.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:gilface,cods][XS:giltalk,1][C:19]Джилліан:[C:C] А і про всяк випадок. #"на камінні" означає, на нашому жаргоні, що тобі #потрібно додати "Льоду".[STOPLIP:]
[XS:gilface,][XS:giltalk,1][C:19]Джилліан:[C:C] І до речі, візьми на замітку, #станція додасть лід, тільки після змішування.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:giltalk,1][C:19]Джилліан:[C:C] Це не те про що ти маєш думати. #Просто веселий факт.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] ...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:gilface,][XS:giltalk,1][C:19]Джилліан:[C:C] Зроби мені "Місячний Вибух" і я залишу # тебе в спокої.[XS:giltalk,0][STOPLIP:]
[XS:gilface,cods][XS:giltalk,1][C:19]Джилліан:[C:C] Тримай в голові, що я тобі казав![XS:giltalk,0][STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] Так, так...[XS:mix,1][XS:ph,4][E:7][STOPLIP:]
[RES:][XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] Ось, я тебе достатньо довго розважала?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:gilface,][XS:giltalk,1][C:19]Джилліан:[C:C] Ти зробила це. Вибач, що затримав.[XS:giltalk,0][STOPLIP:]
[XS:giltalk,1][C:19]Джилліан:[C:C] А тепер, до роботи.[XS:giltalk,0][STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] Ага.[XS:mix,0][XS:ph,5][E:8][STOPLIP:]
[RES:][XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] Ось.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:gilface,surprise][XS:giltalk,1][C:19]Джилліан:[C:C] Ха, ти дійсно зробила #Піаніста.[XS:giltalk,0][STOPLIP:]
[XS:gilface,fucked][XS:giltalk,1][C:19]Джилліан:[C:C] Я полишаю тебе після #цього, але гарно бачити, що ти впоралася.[XS:giltalk,0][STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] ...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:giltalk,1][C:19]Джилліан:[C:C] У б-будь якому разі, давай #почнемо працювати.[XS:giltalk,0][STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] Ага.[XS:mix,0][XS:ph,5][E:9][STOPLIP:]
[RES:][XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] Ось.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:gilface,fucked][XS:giltalk,1][C:19]Джилліан:[C:C] Ум-м...[XS:giltalk,0][STOPLIP:]
[XS:giltalk,1][C:19]Джилліан:[C:C] Ух-х...[XS:giltalk,0][STOPLIP:]
[XS:giltalk,1][C:19]Джилліан:[C:C] Ти нічого не підірвала поки #змішувала напої. Давай закінчимо на цьому. Нам треба #починати працювати.[XS:giltalk,0][STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] Нарешті.[XS:mix,0][XS:ph,5][E:10][STOPLIP:]
[XS:gilface,surprise][XS:giltalk,1][C:19]Джилліан:[C:C] Ох! Поки не забувся![XS:giltalk,0][STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] Хм?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:gilface,][XS:giltalk,1][C:19]Джилліан:[C:C] Ти можеш зробити будь-який #напій більшим, якщо подвоєш кількість #інгредієнтів.[XS:giltalk,0][STOPLIP:]
[XS:giltalk,1][C:19]Джилліан:[C:C] Але якщо в рецепті вже більше #10 інгредіентів, то напій вже і так великий.[XS:giltalk,0][STOPLIP:]
[XS:giltalk,1][C:19]Джилліан:[C:C] Ох, і якщо в рецепті написано #"Кармотрин за смаком", це означає, що ти можеш #не використовувати його, або ж можеш залити #їм шейкер по самі вінця.[XS:giltalk,0][STOPLIP:]
[XS:giltalk,1][C:19]Джилліан:[C:C] І звичайно, що додатковий Кармотрин #не вважається за #великий напій.[XS:giltalk,0][STOPLIP:]
[XS:giltalk,1][C:19]Джилліан:[C:C] Кармотрин, по суті, синтетичний #спирт. На смак він не впливає, але в #залежності від кількості, впливає на людей.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:gilface,fucked][XS:giltalk,1][C:19]Джилліан:[C:C] Якщо додаш забагато, то клієнт #сп'яніє швидше. Тому, будь ласка, будь #мудрою в цьому плані.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Джилл:[C:C] Ти закінчив з експозицією?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:gilface,][XS:giltalk,1][C:19]Джилліан:[C:C] Тепер. Так.[XS:giltalk,0][XS:client,1][XS:ph,1][E:11][STOPLIP:]
