hello out there!
first time caller - texter? - but long time globe trotting errand gal. that's how it feels, anyway.
back home, i've been traveling with a group for a while now, trying to do...something kinda similar, actually.
save the world and all.
but there are always stepping stones, you know? so we end up helping a lot of people along the way.

what i'm trying to say is: if anyone needs a buddy for the mission, count me in!

[ ... oh, right - ]

almost forgot: i'm aerith. :D
anyway, not really sure if this thing's working, so maybe someone could respond and let me know if it is?

yeah, stories. tall tales and shit like that.

we just have people that are shitty and act like monsters
haven't seen any of them actually turn into creatures
sounds like i'm missing out.

[anciently]

oh, we have that, too.
in fact, i think people usually cause way more problems.
for themselves and for the planet.

[ebrius]

yeah, you're telling me
look what they did here
a bunch of people decided we had to do all this shit
couldn't just leave us alone.

[anciently]

i know what you mean, but i guess i'm also glad we have the chance.
better this than them just deciding who gets to stick around or not, right?

[ebrius]

i guess.
though who's to say it won't come to that in the future?

[anciently]

nobody knows what the future holds.
and it's not out of our hands.
as far as i'm concerned, it's ours to shape.
so...we'll cross that bridge if we come to it?

[ebrius]

you're more optimistic than i am about this place
and its motives

i don't know if i trust that they'll let us shape anything.

[anciently]

i'm trying to be. it's not always easy.
but until we learn otherwise, all i know is i need to find a way to keep my world safe.
and that's enough.

[ Usually. ]

maybe we'll have to persuade them a bit.
if it comes to that, i'll be first in line!

[ebrius]

better you than me
i'm not always the most persuasive person out there
not with words, at least.

[anciently]

oh?
what's your persuasion style of choice?

[ebrius]

typically?
punching things.

[anciently]

that's usually pretty persuasive, it's true.
one of my closest friends is an expert puncher and she always gets the job done ♥

[ebrius]

i'd probably like her
or we'd punch either.

[anciently]

hopefully the former; she's pretty darn great!
she also runs her own bar and she plays piano - what's not to like?

[ebrius]

well i like the bar part
i'm pretty good at drinking

[anciently]

drinking and fighting, huh?

[ hm ]

any good places to drink around here, then?

[ebrius]

i haven't figured that out yet
but that's something i need to do
you offering to help with that?

[anciently]

haven't found a good spot or anything, but i'd be happy to help you look!
or otherwise just keep you company there once one of us finds a place.
if you're interested in company, that is.

[ebrius]

i don't mind the company
as long as the company let's me drink
and doesn't lecture

[anciently]

no issues there!
i'll be in touch then? because you officially owe me a meetup for a drink!

[ebrius]

sure
i'm not going anywhere anytime soon
it looks like
