Hey...

What if we DON'T sell each other out for a scrap of information from a shady source? Information that, even if real, might not even be all that helpful?

Just an idea.

What, you mean the gossip level of information she wants? I'm not trading deep dark secrets here. Unless someone is volunteering and WANTS them shared.

[decodex]

Yeah, I just don't know if any amount of information is good. Gossip is

You can learn a lot about someone even from gossip.

[metrop_lois]

Yeah, the sort of coffee they like or who they're dating.

[And it's as she types that last word...]

Okay, point taken there.

[decodex]

( okay, she seems to get his point, so he's not going to come at this person too hard. )

Coffee says a lot about a person, too.
Stereotypically speaking.

Black coffee? Probably an asshole.
Lots of creamer? Soft.
Lots of sugar? Problematic.

[metrop_lois]

[Pff.]

Okay that's a lot more than I've ever thought about someone else's coffee. You got stereotypes about donuts too?

We can't assume the information isn't real or won't be helpful. If there are people willing to share gossip about themselves, we ought to get what we can in exchange for it.

[decodex]

Piltover's Finest?
You a cop?

( it's not like any of them are in a position to be choosy. if this person is a cop, they're likely just as stuck and stranded as the rest of them. )

Has anyone in this place been helpful?
Outside of us, the others who got pulled in here.

[clavesregni]

Yes. [And she's just gonna keep on pretending she didn't get fired a few days ago.]

The woman I first spoke to when I arrived was fairly helpful. Aurora. She explained where we are and why, at least.

its sunday html is fake

[decodex]

Did she explain the how, or the what, or the when?

'Cause she didn't have much to say when I tried pressing for real details. Not a vague overview, but
Something concrete.

How is this possible?
What does 'proving our worth' look like?
When do we need to achieve this by?

to me html is fake every day

[clavesregni]

No, I suppose not.

Which is why we should be asking those questions, and doing what we can to find answers. We should also be inquiring as to the selection method. Why us? Out of a whole world, why were you and I chosen, specifically? And, since it appears not everyone arrived at the same time, why choose us at the particular moment in which we were chosen? Or rather, perhaps, why choose our worlds for evaluation at that time? Is every world represented here, and if not, why not, and which worlds have failed to qualify? I'd also quite like to know whether time is passing in our worlds while we're here.

What's your name?

[decodex]

Me?

My name?

[banworthy]

No, the other person who made this post.

[decodex]

This is a public network.

You could be talking to anyone.

[ I am going to eat you. And that is a real threat here. ]

[banworthy]

[ Calm down, Vincent. ]

[banworthy]

Just a little joke, my bad.

Yes, I mean you.

i can't believe you are only one of the few people i have heard say this

i mean it is so obviously suspicious, right????
i am fairly sure the tea they are giving too is laced with something which CAN'T be a good thing

[decodex]

Did you drink it?
I didn't drink it.

After the cursed potluck party, I'm feeling a little
Wary

But we're gonna have to eat sometime.

Is all the food here, like... drugged?

[maximumlegend]

not all the food
i would say the stuff you can get from stores is just fine
but if something appears out of nowhere then you have to be a little bit more wary
all the recent new food places or food that's randomly being handed out all of a sudden is all bad

are you seriously being wary though???

[ There's a few moments of nothing, but then another message is sent, like Fabian read over his own message and only then realized how it might come across. ]

that's a good kind of surprise i mean
those question marks
people look at me like i am paranoid whenever i start about things like these so it is good to see someone else who is also wary

[plangona]

i'm with you on that with how suspicious that lady was but i'm not sure how many people are likely to listen.

[decodex]

Judging by these responses?
Yeah, might just be me, you and the cats.

[plangona]

yeah seems like it.

it's stupid that people are even buying into it.

[decodex]

As true as that is
I think people here might be sorta desperate, you know? I'm trying to see it from their side. This might be their first real shot at learning something. So... they feel like they gotta go after it.

( not that eddie feels that way; he's just arrived here. but, if you've been dealing with this for weeks, months, years [??], you might be ready for another option. )

[plangona]

yeah, sure i get that but this is the first time that lady has ever shown up since i've been here. typically we deal with aurora. [ so obviously she was suspicious of the other woman's presence and request from them ]
