[Daniil posts live from a café near the museum. He has no patience for typing responses, and his own visage should explain why. His nose has recently been broken and reset. He looks exhausted and irritated, but he has a duty.]

I need a couple people to come down to the café near that absurd museum with the sewn up fruit exhibits. Bring a stretcher, we have a patient who could use some more urgent treatment.

[From somewhere offscreen, a voice that is distinctly not Daniil’s states:] This Etrayan shot me in an attempt to get information I did not possess. I would appreciate his removal from my presence.

Now- That’s not true at all. That is not the reason you were stopped. [Daniil now regrets making a video, but what’s done is done. ]

ladies, ladies, your both pretty

[thantagonist]

It’s ”you’re”.

[pullit]

oh its you're???

[thantagonist]

Of course Etraya’s illiterati would be gathering like trash in the gutter.

Is that fool a friend of yours? Why are you speaking to me?

[pullit]

my familys running the basecamp you're keepin your morgue in, Poindexter, how bout you lower that nose and chill the fuck out?

Don't we all got better things to do than pick stupid fights?

[thantagonist]

I see how it is. Your family runs this place, so I have to just put up with the sexual harassment?

No thank you, I will find somewhere else to stay.

You should learn not to run your mouth, plebeian.

[thantagonist]

I’ve been warned not to cross you, but if you’re seriously taking their side, I’m not sure what I’m meant to do here.

[brat]

Good, you should be afraid.
They are not sexually harassing you. Do not speak to Nero if his manner of banter causes offense.

[pullit]

[........... aww, little shithead... c: ]

[thantagonist]

Now, I’ll play nice, but I honestly don’t think that’s for a child to weigh in on how I’m made to feel!

[brat]

Different cultures have different means of interacting with one another. Nero is loud and impertinent. This is just Nero being himself.

If you think his phrasing is terribly offensive, you should meet Dante.

[pullit]

SIDES? holy shit bro it ain't that serious

im sorry if it came off bad but what i MEANT was we all got better things to do than stupid slapfights, we are all DOING OUR BEST to save people and try and NOT FUCKING DIE IN A ZOMBIE CORPSE PILE

you're doin great work dude, im not gonna beg you to stay if you wanna go find somewhere else, but i think you could get more done if you didnt have to worry about getting shot or thrown in a murder gantlet in between now and then

[thantagonist]

There is an apocalypse outside. Every one of these exchanges is precisely that serious.

But if you’re not trying to press me out, I’m not going to go through the hassle of setting my morgue up somewhere else. You’re right, it would be a waste of my effort and energy.

[pullit]

dude what??? What sexual harassment?

Who and what?

[thantagonist]

Both of you. You especially, calling me a pretty girl. It’s not like I haven’t dealt with that sort of harassment before but I’m not in the mood. Your knuckle dragging pal trying to talk about my prick.

Enough. I won’t be responding to either of you anymore. I won’t be intimidated by overgrown schoolyard bullies.

[And then he genuinely closes the network. He has things to do.]

[fitshaced]

aw, shucks, nero. now you've gone and made me blush.

[pullit]

what has nobody told you so lately? Unbelevable...

[fitshaced]

right? it's a tragedy after all that effort into doing something different with my hair!

at least real gentlemen like you still exist unlike dickhead danny over there.

[thantagonist]

Ah. I find you both equally nauseating. Go take turns kicking each other in the face or however you occupy your leisure time and leave me be.

[fitshaced]

this is funnier though

[thantagonist]

For you, at my expense. You think men have never mock kisses and flirted with one another in front of me? I know what this is, and I am not amused.

[fitshaced]

uh what???

[He's genuinely confused.]

[thantagonist]

Don’t play dumb!

[fitshaced]

i'm not playing dumb. i don't know what the fuck you're talking about.

look, i'm giving you shit because you're a bit of an asshole and easy to wind up. i tend to respond to assholes by being an asshole back until they simmer the fuck down or piss off depending on the situation.

if you're reading more into that and thinking this is something pointed then let me remind you that i don't know you at all. i don't even know your name.

so whatever you think i'm doing, i promise you i'm not.
