Dave?!

[turntech12395]

yeah man hows it hanging?

[dupable]

Okay, I guess. When did you show up at the castle again?

Wait, you are at the castle right now, right?

[turntech12395]

yeah im here
ive been here for a bit

[dupable]

Wait, really? When? It wasn't when I was out on the expedition, was it?

[turntech12395]

dunno
been a few weeks

[dupable]

Are you serious? Man, where have you even been? I haven't seen you at all!

[turntech12395]

just around
kinda aimlessly wandering
is there somewhere im supposed to be?
am i violating some unknown set of rules or something?
off to the slammer i guess

[dupable]

What? No! I just didn't know you were here, and it kind of sucks that I missed you before. And now I'm stuck out in the Dead Zone, so it's not like I can really get back to the castle easily any time soon.

[turntech12395]

hahaha dude chill
when do you think youll be back here though?

[dupable]

I'm not sure, not for awhile still. We went pretty far out this time.

[wheatdos]

Aha!
You must be new here then! Welcome!
You know... as-as welcome as a welcoming can be in a castle that stole you away.
Not a whole bunch of people here know what it means to be nice, so... uh, prepare to be disappointed.


A lot, mate.

[turntech12395]

nah
im not disappointed
i was expecting all this
and i was right so im pretty satisfied at the moment

Well, I don't think I was ever a big pile of nice, but back home I was a big pile of money!

[silentrunning]

What would you have wanted instead?

[Chell's really pretty confused, as the thought of expecting niceness doesn't make any sense.]

Re: Written

[turntech12395]

sarcasm
i was expecting snarkiness from square one

Re: Written

[silentrunning]

[She squints, confused and writes back...]

What's sarcasm?

Re: Written

[turntech12395]

hopefully what youre using now because if you dont know what it is we have a problem

Re: Written

[silentrunning]

[Chell doesn't know what sarcasm is, and she says as much.]

I would not have asked if I knew. I do not understand what you mean. You are strange.

[ruined_jaw]

Were you expecting us to roll out the red carpet or some bollocks like that? New people come here all the time. Did you at least get the talk about the what's and why's of this place?

Re: Written

[turntech12395]

hardly
and its not like i was expecting a hearty welcome
im just kind of a big deal
you know?

Written

[ruined_jaw]

Well, given that people come here from all times and realities, you can't always expect people to know you. Just sort of the way things work around here.

[eat_me_beat_me]

I could draw you something if you'd like. Hell I think I still have the thing I drew you the last time you were here if you wanna see it.

[hard_talker]

They're all intimidated by your high irony levels and your highest of high bro status. Of course.

[shit, how the hell did he miss seeing DAVE?]

Welcome back, man.

[turntech12395]

hey man
sup?

[hard_talker]

Not too much, gearin' up for my weekly broadcast, findin' out what's new. It's quiet as hell since half the people here went on expedition.

[turntech12395]

what expedition?
i seriously just got here a while ago so i actually dont know

[hard_talker]

Hey, don't sweat it. Hard Harry's here to answer all your questions, man. [ahem] Every year, a bunch of people pick a place somewhere out on the map that no one's been to yet, and they all load up wagons and carts and shit like that, and go check it out. It's sort of The Big To Do.
