I've been stuck here for half a year, personally. Maybe you'll get lucky and get out earlier.

And yeah, this stuff happens often.

[holydark]

No kidding. How do you not go insane?

[tickingshadows]

Good question. I don't know the answer to it. [shakes head bemusedly.]

[holydark]

.. maybe you're already insane and you just don't know it. [a quiet chuckle] Maybe we all are.

[sevenxsorrows]

This shit is pretty regular, actually.

[holydark]

Great! [he laughs bitterly] Just great. And there's no one around we can .. take care of to put a stop to it?

[sevenxsorrows]

[Strained look]

... I wish. Let me guess, you were turned into a rugrat too?

[holydark]

[ping'd! though interested by that look, he merely smiles blandly for now]

Oh yes. The city chose the exact age to make my life hardest.

It seems as routine as the phases of the moon.

But then you must ask yourself, is it reality or just an elaborate dream? The mortal psyche is certainly a marvelous thing.

[holydark]

[he just barks out a laugh and grins broadly]

What if it was both? If we're going to get all philosophical here, we might as well go all the way. Either way, bravo to Template for doing whatever the hell it does so well.

[le_vindicatif]

Ha. All the way? Do you claim this to be everywhere and nowhere? The point between reality and surreality? If so, you must consider if this is all indeed Template's doing, or a construant of your own mind's volition, Monsieur Mikk.

[dishearts]

An unfortunate trait of my childhood.

[holydark]

It would be more endearing if you didn't ask all the wrong kinds of questions.

[dishearts]

It couldn't be helped.

[holydark]

Heh. All is forgiven. Especially since I know now that you lived .. in a circus. I just can't imagine you in that kind of setting, General.

[booyaka_baby]

Seems like this sort of thing happens kinda often.

[holydark]

Unfortunately. I just shiver to think what it'll throw at us next.

[booyaka_baby]

I'm not...too worried. I mean, I've seen just about everything and that was even before coming here. Heck, back home, my very existence almost got erased. I just dislike the waiting part, 'cause at least after it gets sprung on us we can usually figure out what to do, you know?

[holydark]

I'd felt the same before I came here, and I've been proven wrong. I guess we'll see, though. .... [blink] "Existence" is an odd choice of word. Sounds like there's a story behind that one. [he shrugs off the rest in his curiosity about this point]
