[01:00] CP: Alrigh☥.
[01:09] -- catenaryPyre [CP] messages Lyn again a few hours later once he finally reaches his destination, Forbes waiting in sight. --
[01:10] CP: I'm here, and so's he. I'll lel☥ you know once ☥his is over. I☥ shouldn'☥ las☥ long.
[01:13] -- artfulTransgressor [AT] is already tense, and the news that the fight is starting just makes him more so. Without there being any guarantee this is a blackrom thing...Cero could be killed. And lowbloods are typically at a d --
[01:13] AT: isadvantage over those of higher caste; they're usually not as well off. Lyn doesn't even know what caste this Averil *is*, but since Cero is a rustblood the very best possibility is that they're dead even.
[01:13] AT: just dont die okay
[01:14] -- artfulTransgressor [AT] will now worry even harder until he gets word that the fight is over and Cero has won it. Or at least survived it. --
[01:16] -- artfulTransgressor [AT] watches a solid hour and a half pass while he waits for word. It's edging on two when he can't stand it anymore; he only waits that long because he's afraid that if they ARE still fighting, a message to Cero at the wrong moment might be a lethal distraction. But surely it's over by now, right...? --
[01:16] AT: hey ansata
[01:16] AT: thought i said to message me back
[01:16] AT: did you forget
[01:21] -- artfulTransgressor [AT] gives it a little time, but he's getting more and more alarmed at an exponential rate. --
[01:21] AT: cmon ansata
[01:21] AT: are you okay
[01:22] AT: fucking answer me
[01:22] AT: im probably nowhere near where this went down but you shouldVe told me where
[01:22] AT: i couldVe sent somebody
[01:23] -- artfulTransgressor [AT] is feeling almost physically ill by the time another hour passes. --
[01:24] AT: goddammit cero
[01:24] AT: you had one job
[01:25] AT: its not like youVe eVer listened to me yet but couldnt this haVe been the one thing
[01:26] CP: I'm sorry. I didn'☥ mean ☥o make you worry.
[01:27] -- artfulTransgressor [AT] had given up after that last message, as much because of the sun rising as anything. He'd actually been curling up in his blankets to sleep when Trollian pinged him, and he almost can't believe the text he sees. --
[01:27] AT: holy MOTHER OF FUCK
[01:27] AT: i should fucking cull you myself you asshole
[01:28] CP: Hey. Though☥ you migh☥ have gone ☥o sleep already.
[01:28] CP: The figh☥ las☥ed longer ☥han I ☥hough☥.
[01:28] CP: I☥ appears I underes☥ima☥ed him.
[01:28] CP: And ☥hen ☥he sun being abou☥ ☥o rise pu☥ a damper on ☥hings.
[01:30] CP: The good news is i☥ appears ☥o be a black ☥hing. He said i☥ would be a shame ☥o lose me ☥o ☥he sun and offered his hive for ☥he day as shel☥er.
[01:30] CP: I☥ ☥ook us a while ☥o ge☥ back, and we were fairly exhaus☥ed as i☥ were plus ☥he has☥e of ge☥☥ing ☥here before i☥ rose.
[01:31] AT: oh good
[01:31] AT: that means he wont kill you before i get to you
[01:35] CP: I promise you have culling righ☥s ☥o me. I should have ☥hough☥ ☥o message you on ☥he way ☥o his hive.
[01:35] CP: There was jus☥ a lo☥ of ☥hings happening a☥ once, ☥hough ☥ha☥'s really no excuse.
[01:35] AT: for fucks sake do you know how long its been
[01:36] CP: No☥ a damned clue.
[01:36] CP: We didn'☥ even realize we were in danger un☥il ☥he sky s☥ar☥ed shif☥ing color.
[01:37] AT: its been like
[01:37] AT: going on fiVe hours
[01:37] CP: Fuck.
[01:38] CP: I'm sorry, I wasn'☥ ☥hinking clearly by ☥he end ☥here.
[01:40] AT: i figured you were dead or bleeding out somewhere
[01:42] CP: We were surprisingly evenly ma☥ched in ☥he figh☥.
[01:42] CP: I jus☥ fucking ha☥e ☥he way he always ac☥s so high and migh☥y because he's a higher cas☥e.
[01:42] CP: Even when he has no righ☥ ☥o.
[01:42] CP: He's barely fucking be☥☥er ☥han us.
[01:43] CP: He's an olive blood au☥hor for fuck's sake, he has no righ☥ ☥o look down on anyone.
[01:47] AT: seriously
[01:56] AT: is he that much of a seeping sack of bulges though or is it just cause you guys are waxing
[01:57] CP: A li☥☥le of bo☥h.
[01:57] CP: The firs☥ ☥ime we me☥ he pissed me off because he looked down on me like he was superior. I respec☥ highbloods because I'm no☥ s☥upid enough ☥o le☥ myself piss ☥hem off and ge☥ culled.
[01:57] CP: He, however, is NOT a highblood.
[01:58] CP: He's going ☥o make i☥ his goal in ☥he game ☥o show off as much as he can and prove ☥o ☥he sea dwellers ☥ha☥ he's wor☥hy of ☥heir acknowledgemen☥.
[01:58] CP: I☥'s disgus☥ing.
[02:08] AT: ugh
[02:08] AT: yeah that sounds sick
[02:08] CP: You can find some of his work online if you ever ge☥ ☥ha☥ bored.
[02:08] CP: Kanabo is a huge fan of his wri☥ings, which is why I didn'☥ wan☥ her ☥o know.
[02:09] CP: arcaneScribbler is his penname, as well as his ☥rollian handle.
[02:10] AT: i can safely say i will neVer be that bored
[02:10] AT: maybe ill read it someday if iVe ingested poison and need to induce Vomiting
[02:10] CP: Good. I've never ac☥ually bo☥hered reading any of ☥hem anyway.
[02:18] CP: Seriously ☥hough, sorry for making you worry over my dumb ass. Bu☥ I ☥hink I'm abou☥ ☥o pass ou☥ for ☥he day.
[02:19] AT: before you go
[02:19] AT: youre not super hurt or anything are you
[02:20] CP: I'm more exhau☥ed ☥han hur☥. I've go☥ a few scrapes, bu☥ no☥hing ☥oo major. As good as he is wi☥h a blade, I'm jus☥ as good a☥ dodging and blocking wi☥h my s☥aff.
[02:20] CP: No more worse ☥han wha☥ I've go☥☥en FLARPing.
[02:21] AT: okay good
[02:22] AT: try not to get too mauled in the course of whateVer blackrom youre pursuing with this guy
[02:22] AT: itll be fucking embarrassing if he has to drag you home cause you got too enthusiastic
[02:22] CP: I'll be careful, I promise. I would never le☥ myself fall ☥o ☥ha☥ level.
[02:23] AT: im not as worried as before anyway so you dont haVe to reassure me so much
[02:23] AT: i mean if its blackrom hes not gonna cull you
[02:23] CP: I s☥ill feel like an ass for no☥ ge☥☥ing back ☥o you sooner.
[02:23] AT: you should cause youre an ass
[02:24] AT: but youre still aliVe so ill get oVer it
[02:24] AT: you can make it up to me later
[02:24] CP: I'll ☥alk ☥o you ☥onigh☥. You should ge☥ some sleep now as well.
[02:24] AT: buy me a game or something
[02:24] CP: Deal.
[02:25] AT: also just for the record
[02:25] AT: i know i was doing all that worrying oVer you and shit
[02:25] AT: but its not like i didnt think you could kick his ass or anything
[02:25] AT: just i didnt giVe half as much a shit what happened if the fight went your way
[02:26] AT: so i wasnt worried about that part
[02:26] AT: just so were clear
[02:26] CP: You had every righ☥ ☥o worry. I would have been ☥he same if our posi☥ions would have been reversed and you had been ☥he one ou☥ doing some☥hing s☥upid and no☥ con☥ac☥ing me back.
[02:26] AT: heh
[02:26] CP: Though I hones☥ly would have been a bi☥ more angry abou☥ i☥.
[02:26] AT: no worries there man
[02:26] AT: you wouldnt catch me dead fighting another troll Voluntarily
[02:27] AT: why?
[02:28] CP: If I didn'☥ know if you were dead or alive and you weren'☥ answering? I would have been pissed. You don'☥ see i☥ as much, bu☥ I have a fairly bad ☥emper under cer☥ain circums☥ances.
[02:30] AT: id belieVe it
[02:30] AT: guess its just as well it wasnt me then
[02:30] AT: i dont need you pissed at me
[02:31] AT: i got enough problems
[02:31] CP: Unless you do some☥hing ☥o pu☥ your life in danger, ☥ha☥ won'☥ be an issue. And considering you're you, I don'☥ ☥hink we need ☥o ever worry abou☥ ☥ha☥.
[02:31] AT: well technically my lifes always in danger
[02:32] AT: but yeah i try to minimize that shit as much as possible
[02:43] AT: i dont think i can sleep just yet
[02:43] CP: Why no☥?
[02:43] AT: i dunno
[02:44] AT: adrenaline i guess?
[02:44] AT: i was about ready to collapse when you messaged me
[02:44] AT: but when i saw your text i almost hit the ceiling
[02:44] CP: I'm no☥ sure whe☥her ☥o apologize or be vaguely amused over ☥ha☥.
[02:46] AT: both
[02:47] CP: We'll go wi☥h bo☥h ☥hen.
[03:29] AT: im still waiting
[03:51] AT: for the apology part

[01:10] CP: I'm here, and so's he. I'll lel☥ you know once ☥his is over. I☥ shouldn'☥ las☥ long.
[01:13] -- artfulTransgressor [AT] is already tense, and the news that the fight is starting just makes him more so. Without there being any guarantee this is a blackrom thing...Cero could be killed. And lowbloods are typically at a d --
[01:13] AT: isadvantage over those of higher caste; they're usually not as well off. Lyn doesn't even know what caste this Averil *is*, but since Cero is a rustblood the very best possibility is that they're dead even.
[01:13] AT: just dont die okay
[01:14] -- artfulTransgressor [AT] will now worry even harder until he gets word that the fight is over and Cero has won it. Or at least survived it. --
[01:16] -- artfulTransgressor [AT] watches a solid hour and a half pass while he waits for word. It's edging on two when he can't stand it anymore; he only waits that long because he's afraid that if they ARE still fighting, a message to Cero at the wrong moment might be a lethal distraction. But surely it's over by now, right...? --
[01:16] AT: hey ansata
[01:16] AT: thought i said to message me back
[01:16] AT: did you forget
[01:21] -- artfulTransgressor [AT] gives it a little time, but he's getting more and more alarmed at an exponential rate. --
[01:21] AT: cmon ansata
[01:21] AT: are you okay
[01:22] AT: fucking answer me
[01:22] AT: im probably nowhere near where this went down but you shouldVe told me where
[01:22] AT: i couldVe sent somebody
[01:23] -- artfulTransgressor [AT] is feeling almost physically ill by the time another hour passes. --

[01:25] AT: its not like youVe eVer listened to me yet but couldnt this haVe been the one thing
[01:26] CP: I'm sorry. I didn'☥ mean ☥o make you worry.
[01:27] -- artfulTransgressor [AT] had given up after that last message, as much because of the sun rising as anything. He'd actually been curling up in his blankets to sleep when Trollian pinged him, and he almost can't believe the text he sees. --
[01:27] AT: holy MOTHER OF FUCK
[01:27] AT: i should fucking cull you myself you asshole
[01:28] CP: Hey. Though☥ you migh☥ have gone ☥o sleep already.
[01:28] CP: The figh☥ las☥ed longer ☥han I ☥hough☥.
[01:28] CP: I☥ appears I underes☥ima☥ed him.
[01:28] CP: And ☥hen ☥he sun being abou☥ ☥o rise pu☥ a damper on ☥hings.
[01:30] CP: The good news is i☥ appears ☥o be a black ☥hing. He said i☥ would be a shame ☥o lose me ☥o ☥he sun and offered his hive for ☥he day as shel☥er.
[01:30] CP: I☥ ☥ook us a while ☥o ge☥ back, and we were fairly exhaus☥ed as i☥ were plus ☥he has☥e of ge☥☥ing ☥here before i☥ rose.
[01:31] AT: oh good
[01:31] AT: that means he wont kill you before i get to you
[01:35] CP: I promise you have culling righ☥s ☥o me. I should have ☥hough☥ ☥o message you on ☥he way ☥o his hive.
[01:35] CP: There was jus☥ a lo☥ of ☥hings happening a☥ once, ☥hough ☥ha☥'s really no excuse.
[01:35] AT: for fucks sake do you know how long its been
[01:36] CP: No☥ a damned clue.
[01:36] CP: We didn'☥ even realize we were in danger un☥il ☥he sky s☥ar☥ed shif☥ing color.
[01:37] AT: its been like
[01:37] AT: going on fiVe hours
[01:37] CP: Fuck.
[01:38] CP: I'm sorry, I wasn'☥ ☥hinking clearly by ☥he end ☥here.
[01:40] AT: i figured you were dead or bleeding out somewhere
[01:42] CP: We were surprisingly evenly ma☥ched in ☥he figh☥.
[01:42] CP: I jus☥ fucking ha☥e ☥he way he always ac☥s so high and migh☥y because he's a higher cas☥e.
[01:42] CP: Even when he has no righ☥ ☥o.
[01:42] CP: He's barely fucking be☥☥er ☥han us.
[01:43] CP: He's an olive blood au☥hor for fuck's sake, he has no righ☥ ☥o look down on anyone.
[01:47] AT: seriously
[01:56] AT: is he that much of a seeping sack of bulges though or is it just cause you guys are waxing
[01:57] CP: A li☥☥le of bo☥h.
[01:57] CP: The firs☥ ☥ime we me☥ he pissed me off because he looked down on me like he was superior. I respec☥ highbloods because I'm no☥ s☥upid enough ☥o le☥ myself piss ☥hem off and ge☥ culled.
[01:57] CP: He, however, is NOT a highblood.
[01:58] CP: He's going ☥o make i☥ his goal in ☥he game ☥o show off as much as he can and prove ☥o ☥he sea dwellers ☥ha☥ he's wor☥hy of ☥heir acknowledgemen☥.
[01:58] CP: I☥'s disgus☥ing.
[02:08] AT: ugh
[02:08] AT: yeah that sounds sick
[02:08] CP: You can find some of his work online if you ever ge☥ ☥ha☥ bored.
[02:08] CP: Kanabo is a huge fan of his wri☥ings, which is why I didn'☥ wan☥ her ☥o know.
[02:09] CP: arcaneScribbler is his penname, as well as his ☥rollian handle.
[02:10] AT: i can safely say i will neVer be that bored
[02:10] AT: maybe ill read it someday if iVe ingested poison and need to induce Vomiting
[02:10] CP: Good. I've never ac☥ually bo☥hered reading any of ☥hem anyway.
[02:18] CP: Seriously ☥hough, sorry for making you worry over my dumb ass. Bu☥ I ☥hink I'm abou☥ ☥o pass ou☥ for ☥he day.
[02:19] AT: before you go
[02:19] AT: youre not super hurt or anything are you
[02:20] CP: I'm more exhau☥ed ☥han hur☥. I've go☥ a few scrapes, bu☥ no☥hing ☥oo major. As good as he is wi☥h a blade, I'm jus☥ as good a☥ dodging and blocking wi☥h my s☥aff.
[02:20] CP: No more worse ☥han wha☥ I've go☥☥en FLARPing.
[02:21] AT: okay good
[02:22] AT: try not to get too mauled in the course of whateVer blackrom youre pursuing with this guy
[02:22] AT: itll be fucking embarrassing if he has to drag you home cause you got too enthusiastic
[02:22] CP: I'll be careful, I promise. I would never le☥ myself fall ☥o ☥ha☥ level.
[02:23] AT: im not as worried as before anyway so you dont haVe to reassure me so much
[02:23] AT: i mean if its blackrom hes not gonna cull you
[02:23] CP: I s☥ill feel like an ass for no☥ ge☥☥ing back ☥o you sooner.
[02:23] AT: you should cause youre an ass
[02:24] AT: but youre still aliVe so ill get oVer it
[02:24] AT: you can make it up to me later
[02:24] CP: I'll ☥alk ☥o you ☥onigh☥. You should ge☥ some sleep now as well.
[02:24] AT: buy me a game or something
[02:24] CP: Deal.
[02:25] AT: also just for the record
[02:25] AT: i know i was doing all that worrying oVer you and shit
[02:25] AT: but its not like i didnt think you could kick his ass or anything
[02:25] AT: just i didnt giVe half as much a shit what happened if the fight went your way
[02:26] AT: so i wasnt worried about that part
[02:26] AT: just so were clear
[02:26] CP: You had every righ☥ ☥o worry. I would have been ☥he same if our posi☥ions would have been reversed and you had been ☥he one ou☥ doing some☥hing s☥upid and no☥ con☥ac☥ing me back.
[02:26] AT: heh
[02:26] CP: Though I hones☥ly would have been a bi☥ more angry abou☥ i☥.
[02:26] AT: no worries there man
[02:26] AT: you wouldnt catch me dead fighting another troll Voluntarily
[02:27] AT: why?
[02:28] CP: If I didn'☥ know if you were dead or alive and you weren'☥ answering? I would have been pissed. You don'☥ see i☥ as much, bu☥ I have a fairly bad ☥emper under cer☥ain circums☥ances.
[02:30] AT: id belieVe it
[02:30] AT: guess its just as well it wasnt me then
[02:30] AT: i dont need you pissed at me
[02:31] AT: i got enough problems
[02:31] CP: Unless you do some☥hing ☥o pu☥ your life in danger, ☥ha☥ won'☥ be an issue. And considering you're you, I don'☥ ☥hink we need ☥o ever worry abou☥ ☥ha☥.
[02:31] AT: well technically my lifes always in danger
[02:32] AT: but yeah i try to minimize that shit as much as possible
[02:43] AT: i dont think i can sleep just yet
[02:43] CP: Why no☥?
[02:43] AT: i dunno
[02:44] AT: adrenaline i guess?
[02:44] AT: i was about ready to collapse when you messaged me
[02:44] AT: but when i saw your text i almost hit the ceiling
[02:44] CP: I'm no☥ sure whe☥her ☥o apologize or be vaguely amused over ☥ha☥.
[02:46] AT: both
[02:47] CP: We'll go wi☥h bo☥h ☥hen.
[03:29] AT: im still waiting
[03:51] AT: for the apology part
[03:51] AT: although i guess you probably fell asleep or something
[03:52] AT: later i guess
