[ There's a very distressed young troll on the phones today, talking quickly and nervously. ]

Umm... I have something to tell efurryone! It's been bothering me a lot lately, and... I think it's time to be purrfectly honest!

[ The cat puns drop for a moment and she speaks almost in a whisper, tone deeply ashamed: ]

I'm a communist.I'm not really

Whoooa, catsis, you bought a what? I mean...I ain't gonna get my judge on or anythin', you gotta do what your heart all up and motherfuckin' tells you to do, but you sure you ready for that kinda shit?

[tacklepounce]

Noooo no no, it wasn't like that! Humans... use them diffurently.

[ caught between being flustered and unsureing at Gamzee

He sure seems like normal friendly Gamzee, but... Equius kind of told her to be careful around him -- or maybe avoid him entirely but close enough -- so she'll stay a bit wary. ]

Fur storing things.

[miraculls]

[w-why doesn't anyone want to be friends with him anymore )o:]

Hey, chica, you don't got to be explaining nothin' to me. We still motherfuckin' friends no matter what you be doing with pails, I ain't gonna be thinkin' of you any differently.

[the_kitchen_boy]

Oh dear, oh dear.

This malady certainly is spreading.

[tacklepounce]

I don't feel sick...

[the_kitchen_boy]

This compulsion towards admitting things. You appear to be most infected, girl, to the very bone.

[tacklepounce]

Is-- is there a way to fix it? If this is all it does, I don't think it's that bad!

[freakinblur]

[Flatly:] You ain't a communist.

[tacklepounce]

No, it's okay, I'm pretty sure I am!

[ beat ]

What's a communist?

[freakinblur]

YOU AIN'T A COMMUNIST! People are claimin' ta be one an' youse guys don't even know what the hell they are!

[tacklepounce]

Maybe you could explain it! And then I could know if I'm actually one or not.

[hontobakabaka]

"Do you even know what a communist is?"

[tacklepounce]

Nope. But it still feels good to admit it!

[hontobakabaka]

"If you don't know what one is, how do you know you are one? Also... You can get paint in tubes and mix them in cups if you don't like buckets."

[tacklepounce]

I got a big one to do my wall... it's diffurent back home.

Do you know what one is?

[animalhusbandry]

There's no shame at all in painting. It's a perfectly acceptable use of the Craft skill.

[tacklepounce]

No, I've always liked painting! Even if human paint seems kind of weird to me.

[animalhusbandry]

That statement implies you are something other than human. Given your earlier speech patterns, I'd say you're some sort of cat-based were-creature.

[tacklepounce]

Hehehe! No, I'm a troll! I was just raised by a cat.
