[ Apparently, Kankri found a red pen...somewhere. Oh boy. ]

This 699k is f9r messages, yes? In that case, I simply have t9 say that wh9ever y9u are, we are getting 9ff t9 a very 6ad start with the n9nc9nsensual kidnapping 6usiness. This d9es n9t 69de well f9r any relati9nship y9u are h9ping t9 esta6lish. Taking my sweater isn't particularly g99d 9f y9u either. It's m9re ann9ying than really triggering, 6ut it has sentimental value t9 me, and I'd appreciate it if y9u c9uld return it t9 me and refrain fr9m handling my pers9n with9ut my c9nsent in the future. In fact, we're g9ing t9 have t9 esta6lish s9me str9ng 69undaries c9ncerning pers9nal space, I feel.

Furtherm9re, while I'm sure y9ur heart (9r vascular 9rgan anal9gue, I d9n't mean t9 exclude the differently anat9mied fr9m this discussi9n) was in the right place, n9nc9nsensually rec9rp9realizing s9me9ne int9 a palace fit f9r r9yalty is highly pr96lematic. N9t 9nly d9es it imply the excesses ass9ciated with class divisi9n, a deeply distur6ing t9pic in itself, 6ut that kind 9f thing c9uld 6e highly triggering t9 s9me9ne wh9 w9uld prefer t9 remain dead. I'm sure y9u were 9nly acting in the interests 9f what y9u felt 6est, 6ut it's all rather patr9nizing. In the future I'd appreciate it if y9u c9uld ask my 9pini9n 6ef9re d9ing anything p9tentially triggering with my 69dy 9r state 9f m9rtality.

I'm glad we talked this 9ut. Please let me kn9w if y9u f9und anything c9nfusing 9r triggering, I realize these new c9ncepts may 6e a l9t t9 take in f9r s9me9ne unaware 9f their m9rtality 9r caste privilege.

[Blink...blink. Evan never thought he'd read anything that sounded like it was written by his friend Broo, while at the same time being very much nothing like what Broo might talk about.]

That's sorta the castle for ya. It doesn't really give anyone a choice, as far as being here, or our losses or anything. It can be upsetting, sure, but there's a lot here that can make up for that, I think.

You must be new, I'm guessing? My name's Evan Sabahnur.

Ah, I was unaware that there was a recording function. I assumed journals would require written messages. Hello, Evan Sabahnur. If you have a preferred form of address, please let me know, I want to respect your cultural customs.

[ With a name like that, no way he's a troll. ]

My name is Kankri Vantas, but you can feel free to call me Kankri. Now, may I ask what you mean by- the castle? A building is an inanimate object, yes?

Really.]

okay so for one
youre not wwritin to the castle itself on account a the castle not bein a person an it not evven fuckin carin about things like you preferrin bein dead or preferrin the dream bubbles to this
an the fact that these journals operate more like trollian memos than anythin else
for twwo this place isnt really all that great
its kinda shabby if i say so myself an its too crowwded to be properly fittin for royalty
if youre so bothered by livvin in a castle you can go livve in the vvillage an get awway from this privviledged existence or wwhatevver
or you can just wwish for a shittier room if you dont wwant to havve your owwn hivve
an the last thing is you should be glad its only a swweater you lost and not somethin like vvital memories or knowwledge
your swweater looked horrendous anywways but all a you beforan trolls had horrendous taste

[Mituna's hand writing is even worse than his typing. Somewhere he found a yellow pen, too. Sorry, Kankri]

Hell9, Mituna.
Y9u seem t9 6e taking this well. I h9pe y9u're in g99d spirits and adjusting well t9 6eing newly revived?
I kn9w y9u're a 6it delicate, and all this excitement may 6e a 6it much f9r y9u.
Als9 I h9pe that y9u haven't g9ne hitting y9ur head 9n y9ur injury panel any m9re, since y9u're n9w capa6le 9f injuring y9urself further 9nce m9re.

[greaselightning]

[Wow that sure is a familiar quirk and color. And the tl;dr to go with it? Yep, that is no one other than Kankri Vantas. That certainly beats the pants off of the other loser that showed up here recently! Looking at you, Mituna!]

vwell, vwell, vwell, look vwho it is.
this place doesnt havwe much of a care vwhen it comes to bringing people here, or taking things from you, though i guess it vwas a bit more obvwious vwith yours than it has been vwith vwhat it took from me.
still havwent figured that one out.
do you need a "privwate" tour by none other than cronus ampora, to get more acquainted vwith the castle?
vwho am i kidding, of course you do.
vwhere can i find you at, tiger?

[privilegecheck]

Cr9nus, it's g99d t9 see y9u.
S9 9ur pers9nal p9ssessi9ns are taken fr9m us?
I'll have t9 add theft t9 kidnapping 9n the trigger warnings f9r this castle.

I'd appreciate a guide, if y9u're willing.
I d9n't much care a69ut it 6eing private 9r n9t.
Are there 9ther humans here f9r y9u t9 make y9urself at hive with?

[ Assume he sends some info about where he is, because I am lazy. ]

Alth9ugh I think y9u might find s9me valua6le p9ints f9r discussi9n in my p9st, as it was n9t addressed t9 y9u, I w9n't take 9ffense at y9u exercising y9ur will as a free tr9ll in ign9ring what y9u ch99se.

Unless y9u aren't a tr9ll? My ap9l9gies, that was very 6ef9ran-centric 9f me.

:33 < beclaws i am purrty sure it doesnt care

[privilegecheck]

I'm sure any 6eing with a reas9na6le level 9f sentience can 6e reas9ned with. T9 assume n9t carries pr96lematic 9vert9nes 9f...I want t9 say speciesism, 6ut that w9uld apply t9 living 9rganisms. I really must expand my v9ca6ulary.

[well this is ... interesting. the quirk suggests it's a troll, but there aren't any trolls who write in that kind of red! :0

so yeah she kind of tl;dr'd on the actual content also.]

hello who is this

written

[privilegecheck]

My name is Kankri Vantas. And y9u are?

[thebestseller]

Tell me about it. Snatching people and taking something away from them just isn't cricket.

[privilegecheck]

It certainly is n9t a chirping 6ug. I'm glad s9me9ne else seems c9ncerned a69ut this.

[Alex is laughing so hard over here you don't even know]

Oh my god, dude, are you for real?

;dictated

[privilegecheck]

I seem to be entirely corporeal at the moment, yes. I assure you I'm surprised as well.

Written

[cyan_maid]

Hmmm. You must be new around here, huh?
At least, that's how you're talking. Nobody's actually kidnapped you, it was the castle.
And good heavens, why would anybody WANT to stay dead?

Written

[privilegecheck]

As the castle is apparently sentient unt9 itself, I hesitate t9 deny its existence and agency like that. And perhaps s9me9ne might prefer the quiet c9ntemplati9ns 9f dead dream6u66les t9 the harsh vi9lence and inequalities 9f everyday life.

[nukeoleptic]

oh my god
your quirk

Is s9mething wr9ng?

Thank y9u f9r tagging this p9st. In the c9nfusi9n it slipped my mind, unf9rtunately. I assure y9u it w9n't happen again.
