Yeah, yeahyeahyeahyeah, lemme. Lemme do it. Hhh.

[Antigone's somewhat nasally, cynical voice is back, hi.

she clears her throat.]

'Kay. I'm not talkin' to whoever's out there that already knows how annoying dealing with Fae sorts is. Everyone else? I'm doin' this to be nice. And helpful. [and on the goddamn record so no one can ever accuse Knife of not trying maybe once.

so she will spell this out slowly for ya's:] Do. Not. Give. Out. Your. Real. Name. Make a new one. Use that one. Make everyone else use it.

Got it? Get it? Good.

Don't say you weren't warned.

[saychocobo]

What? I mean like announce the fake name. Or just tell the people that know us. Cause if everybody knows to not call anybody their real name, then it doesn't matter if they don't know you at all.

[rudelanguage]

Oh.

I mean.

It'd probably help? Like, if you're already super-chummy with people here, you don't want 'em hailing you by your name over there, obviously.

[saychocobo]

Obviously telling people I know. Guess there's no need to tell the ones I don't anyway. It's easier to just introduce myself as Fake Name the first time.

[rudelanguage]

Yeah, pretty much. I mean, I dunno how wild Aurora's disguises are gonna go, so.

Yeah.

[saychocobo]

So it's not gonna be just fake beards and hats? I dunno what a glamour is. I get that it's a disguise, but I've never seen one.

[rudelanguage]

I mean, if Aurora can suddenly do magic somehow, then it's a spell. But, like. I dunno. Ask her for the details of the crap she's doing to people, yeah?

[saychocobo]

If she's an AI, wouldn't she have already told us everything she had to say? Why would she be programmed to not tell us what we needed to know?

[rudelanguage]

Because Echo is furuhhhhhhhmmmmessing. With us. [do you know how hard it is to not cuss every other word on the regular. thank Knife.]

[saychocobo]

Yeah that tracks. Dunno why I thought they'd do anything but fuck with us.

[rudelanguage]

I dunno, because a lot of folks here decide going with the flow is easier than biting back? Because they actually believe the threat of worlds exploding with no evidence we're fixing anything? Who's to say! Not me!

[saychocobo]

You don't believe the threat? Kinda seems like a lot of effort to go to without a reason, y'know? I-I'm not saying I believe it, just that - what else could it be?

[rudelanguage]

Convincing enough to keep people obedient? Hell if I know! Powerful sorts do all kind of twisted junk to people all the time! Heck, Echo's got smarmy wizard written all over him; I bet he's living in a tower right now.

[saychocobo]

Do wizards make AI? Cause there's mech around if the answer's smarmy wizard did it...

[rudelanguage]

[she is flapping her arms in exasperation. this cannot be seen, but it is indeed happening.]

Iiii don't know! If I knew, I'd have cracked all this and gotten the hell out of here, guy!

[saychocobo]

Okay - okay. Sheesh. Not tryin' to ask questions people don't know the answers to!

[rudelanguage]

That's whatcha been doin' this whole chat, yeah? Huh? Huh?

[saychocobo]

Where else am I supposed to ask these things??

[rudelanguage]

To a person.

In person?

To their face?

They're around!

[saychocobo]

This is faster! What's the big deal, I don't get it.

[rudelanguage]

[rAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAa--] I already told you what I know!

[saychocobo]

You know you don't hafta answer, right? You can walk off into the sunset. Live your best life.

[rudelanguage]

I'm gonna walk off a fhruEAKIN building if you don't shut up!

[saychocobo]

[ Shutting up now. Sheesh. Prompto just makes a mental note of the username to avoid being annoying. ]
