O-okay, hang on. I've got one for you.

W.C. Fields said that 'Beauty is skin deep, but ugly goes to the bone'. What that one means is simple--no matter what someone looks like on the outside, a skeleton looks disturbing no matter whose it is. Ultimately, it doesn't matter what someone does or looks like, we're all human and we're all going to die eventually. So make the most out of life however you can.

[what is this noise and who is calling her so incessantly???]

Tyrell? If this is you prank calling, I swear--!

I'm not prank calling. I'm providing backup.

[Has he gone crazy? Maybe a little. Thanks, Johto.]

It's been a while since you last saved your game, you know. It's really not safe to go so long without it.

Saved my what? How is this providing backup?

[GLAD YOU ASKED]

Saving your game lets me keep a record of your mission. So if anything happens, we'll know what went wrong and be able to avoid the same mistakes next time. Kind of like hitting a 'reset' button.

Here's something you might like to hear. 'An ounce of prevention beats a pound of cure'. This one means...well, if you're sick, you should prevent other people from catching the same thing. If someone else caught your cold, they'd probably come find you and beat you into the ground. Be considerate and it'll save you a lot of pain in the long run.

Hm... [Nodding to himself, Cilan ponders this.] That's a good piece of advice. If only, um, Chili was around to hear it...

philanthrotaku May 28 2011, 04:51:05 UTC
Not to mention it's really not all that fun to catch a cold in the first place. So I guess it'd be a good idea to take care of yourself.

Do you want to save your game?

Would I have to quit if I save?

Reply

philanthrotaku May 28 2011, 05:24:00 UTC
Nope. I'm just making sure to keep a record of what you're doing in case something happens.

I mean, what if you went out and got hit by a car? Or fell off a bridge or something? If you didn't save your game, you might be in serious trouble.

Meryl! Good, I'm glad I got a hold of you.

...It's been hours since you last saved your game. What if something happened to you?

[DOT DOT DOT UMMMMMM]

Since when have you been in charge of the saving?

philanthrotaku May 28 2011, 05:06:55 UTC
...A while.
