Back to Work

[colony_brat]

Alright, looks like it's time I get Azzip back up and open. Problem is, it needs a bit of cleanin' and I'm goin' ta need help with firewood and shoppin'. So, besides a certain fairy waiter, who wants ta help me? I'd offer ta pay you in food, but since it's free, seems kinda stupid. So, guess I could have a private party for those willin' ta help.

Hm? Oh you don't want to hear 'bout that. I'll just have ta explain a lotta things. What 'bout you? What were you doin' 'fore ya came here? [Yes, that's an attempt to chance the subject.]

[idle-magic.livejournal.com]

...Why should I tell you?

[colony_brat]

Dunno? 'cause it might be interesting? 'cause it might help me figure out where ya are in Sasarai's timeline? 'cause I don't know what else you wanna talk 'bout?

[idle-magic.livejournal.com]

...I was supposed to be aiding in the war effort when I got here.

[colony_brat]

Ah, know how that is. Well, you enjoyin' your vacation?

[idle-magic.livejournal.com]

Not at all.

[colony_brat]

Really? 's not so bad here. We got plenty a food, friends, places ta stay. All in all, if I'm gunna be a lab rat, I like being a well cared for lab rat.

[idle-magic.livejournal.com]

I'd rather not be a lab rat at all.

[colony_brat]

Yeah well, like I said 'snot that bad. It could be a lot worse. Sure, I think I'd rather be back in my own world cleanin' things up, but this isn't so bad. Well, it's better when people aren't dyin' of course.

Sorry, I can't seem to work up enough optimism to agree with you. And I'd rather go back and risk my life in that war than get that weird disease again.

[colony_brat]

[shivers] Yeah, don't wanna talk 'bout it. It is fun sometimes. I really liked bein' a dog and having Hijiri and Kam as girls was fun.

[idle-magic.livejournal.com]

...You liked being a dog.

[colony_brat]

Yeah! I could smell almost anything. And it was fun playin' with my friends who were also animals. And I tried ta catch fish with my teeth. And I licked my housemates 'cause they were funny animals and I wanted ta know what they taste like.

[idle-magic.livejournal.com]

I don't think I'd like an enhanced sense of smell, considering what horrible smells there are out there. And licking your housemates is...weird. Why would you want to taste them in the first place? Were you planning on eating them or something?

[colony_brat]

Oh, you can ignore those, just like ya do now. There's a lotta smells ya don't realize. It really was a lotta fun. There were lots of fun things ta smell. I guess it's a dog thing. I didn't want ta eat 'em. I just wanted ta lick 'em and then play. I didn't want ta eat 'em at all.

[idle-magic.livejournal.com]

Still weird.

[colony_brat]

Naw, it was fun. Shame ya couldn't try it yourself.

[idle-magic.livejournal.com]

It's not a shame at all.

[colony_brat]

Sure it is! What kinda animal do you think you'd be? It's fun ta guess. I never woulda thought Ryuhou'd be a... well he was a rodent of some kind. I think said pig, but he looked more like a giant rat without a tail and a shorter face.

[idle-magic.livejournal.com]

......I'd rather stay the way I am, thanks.

[colony_brat]

Aw, but you can at least guess what kinda animal you'd be if you were an animal. Come on. It's fun.

[idle-magic.livejournal.com]

No.

[colony_brat]

You're not bein' any fun. I'm gunna go find someone else more fun. You order a pizza later and I'll deliver it. Then you'll see just how great it is.

[idle-magic.livejournal.com]

Fine. I wasn't trying to be fun in the first place. And there's still no promises I'll like the pizza.

[colony_brat]

Ya should try to be fun and try ta have some fun. Best way ta say "Fuck you, Malnosso!" You'll like it.
