xlvi - further treatises on egyptian rivers

[darknessb4me]

We've all been different people during floods. Next you're going to suggest we all look deeply into the significance of who we were the time the boat turned into a recreational children's camp.

It wasn't me. As far as I'm concerned, the matter is closed.

[Private to David.]

How are you?

Comments

[emptyyourself]

Of all the complaints regarding the flood, I would never have anticipated that you would disapprove of your counterpart's behaviour.

[darknessb4me]

I don't approve or disapprove. I don't have an opinion. I really don't care.

By the same token, I could care less what any of you got up to, either. It's not a matter of the choices you might have made if this or that or whatever had happened, because in the present it is immaterial. We're us, not them, and if someone wants to worry about why that is, they can do it without me.

[emptyyourself]

Why mention it at all if you don't care?

[darknessb4me]

Because I don't want anyone to expect anything different from me.

[the_shooter]

But you were so interesting that way.

[darknessb4me]

And I'm sure some people would think you were more interesting as a lemur, but that doesn't mean a damn thing, does it?

[the_shooter]

I haven't been a lemur.

[darknessb4me]

Oh, well. Touche then. My point's rendered null.

[acertifieduser]

If our opposites got along, that suggests that you and I could actually get along without too much trouble.

Eddie Spinola.

[darknessb4me]

No it doesn't. [Oh wait, this one has something we want.]

Hi Spinola. We met before the flood.

[acertifieduser]

I know, but I wanted to make sure you remember who I am, Arthas.

[darknessb4me]

Yes. The ambitious one. [Amused.] Hello.

[Private]

Any leads on the disappearances?

[im_spiderman]

Arthas, I'd... I'd like to talk to ye, if ye don't mind.

private

[darknessb4me]

[Sounds like Muradin, too. That's uncanny. Go away barge, he doesn't need this right now.]

What, in person?

private

[im_spiderman]

Aye, though if ye'd rather not, these devices would be fine.

private

[darknessb4me]

Doesn't matter to me...

[flashy_magic]

I thought it was cool that no matter who I am, I still follow you around.

[darknessb4me]

[Shrug] The flood preserved some things, they usually do.

[flashy_magic]

I think I like you better without a beard.
