[FILTER TO TROLLS AND ALSO THE KIDS THAT PLAYED SBURB]

:33 < *ac waves at her furriends excitedly*
:33 < well i am back from the expurrdition now
:33 < i suppaws i just want to s33 how everyone is doing
:33 < it f33ls like it has b33n some time since i spoke with you since the expurrdition was a lot longer than i think anyone thought it would be
:33 < the only thing i found was a neat carpet that had a purrtty pattern on it that i furgot to get back from someone who was carrying it fur me
:33 < *ac k33ps it short since she doesnt want to bore anyone with details*

:33 < um i guess all that traveling got me to thinking about some things
:33 < like how there is this whole mew world to discover full of lots of surpurrises
:33 < but at the same time it also makes me miss home a lot too even if theres not really a point in missing it now
:33 < do you ever wonder what would have happened if we didnt play the game?
:33 < i am pawsitive we trolls would not have ever met the humans
:33 < but i cant help but wonder what the point of it all was
X(( < *ac sighs and chews on her hat in furstration*
:33 < ugh these are purrobably dumb questions so you can furget i asked and just tell me how you are doing lately

[Nepeta. Why this.]

[rogueofheart]

[Nepeta just misses her friends! Is that really so bad?]

[wagers]

I already told you though!

[rogueofheart]

:33 < wait
:33 < told me what already?

[dupable]

i guess so.
only i get the feeling that there was no chance that we couldn't not play the game?
like i basically made all of my human friends and our parents in a lab on a meteor, and if i didn't do that then we wouldn't actually exist, you know?

[rogueofheart]

:33 < oh right the ecto stuff
:33 < but was it beclaws you played the game that you made everyone in the lab
:33 < or would everyone have existed anyway without it?
:33 < purrobably not huh?

[dupable]

well since i had to be there to push buttons to make us... i am pretty sure that we wouldn't exist if it wasn't for me.
it's probably the same for you guys!
only obviously i wasn't actually the one that made you all.

[rogueofheart]

:33 < thinking about it
:33 < i think we have karkitty to thank fur that
:33 < whether he knows it or not
:33 < i mean he did make a bunch of wigglers and they were most likely us

[cyan_maid]

[She'll do as you suggest, mainly because it's still so hard to believe that other people besides her friends actually played the game!!]

I'm as alright as I can be. And you, Nepeta?

[rogueofheart]

[NOPE. The subject will come back up for discussion momentarily!]

:33 < im doing great now that im back!
:33 < thats not to say it wasnt fun or anything
:33 < but sometimes its nice to be around furmiliar territory
:33 < hey wait a second
:33 < you played sburb too???

[cyan_maid]

I certainly did. I learned from Aradia that you and the other trolls played it, and John said he played it too.

[She laughs a little weakly.] It is honestly something I cannot wrap my head around!

[rogueofheart]

:33 < wow!
:33 < what was your role in the game
:33 < did you win?

[rainbowed]

[Excuse her for thread-jacking, but. What.]

I Wasnt Aware That You Played The Game Either Jane
Wow

[fluthlu]

[Wow here have another threadjacker, Jane.]

I'm afraid I must play the broken record and recapitulate my friends' astonishment.
This really is quite remarkable.

[cyan_maid]

[So much threadjacking!]

Imagine how I feel, though! I never suspected there would be others who played the game besides my friends!

[fluthlu]

That seems to be a common assumption in this circle, though not unfounded when one considers the game's rather destructive qualities.
Might I ask what the year was when you began playing?

Welcome Back Nepeta
You Wouldnt Bore Me With Details So Feel Free To Elaborate On That Carpet You Discovered

In Any Case Ive Been Fine Here
Just Landscaping For The Most Part And Examining Species Of Flora That I Never Saw On Our Home Planet

[rogueofheart]

:33 < well of course you would want to hear about it kanaya
:33 < it is mostly bl00 and purrple with really nice gold trim
:33 < and cute little tassles on each corner of it
:33 < it looks fancy and not the kind of rug you would just throw on the floor
:33 < maybe something that is hung on a wall fur show
:33 < anyway its really nice and i will show you some time if you show me the plants that you have found

[rainbowed]

That Sounds Quite Exquisite Nepeta
Dont Forget To Collect It From The Person Who Was Holding It For You
The Lycopodiophyta I Discovered Certainly Pale In Comparison But I Would Enjoy Letting You Examine The Meadow Spike-Moss Ive Gathered

[Private to Nepeta]
So
Did She Go On The Expedition

[fluthlu]

It's nice to hear from you, Nepeta. It's certainly been quite a while.
And you can stop chewing on your hat, I assure you. Your questions are far from dumb. I would assume that all of us have wondered about that a time or two.

[rogueofheart]

:33 < i suppaws i am just furstrated that i dont get to s33 what is going to happen
:33 < i am stuck here and
:33 < well i know i am not exactly going to s33 more anyway
:33 < but never mind about that
:33 < what have you b33n up to?

[fluthlu]

[Rose knows precisely what she means by that, though she isn't sure how Nepeta knows. She lets the subject go.]

I haven't been up to much, I'm afraid. My summer has been what one might refer to as "chill", if not enjoyably so.

[psych0p0mps]

well i dont know if this helps or not
but there are timelines out there where we didnt play the game!
they just didnt end well

[rogueofheart]

:33 < really?
:33 < so if we didnt play we would be worse off?

[psych0p0mps]

well we all wind up dead in those
i dont consider that worse off but they certainly didnt accomplish much
and youre correct if one of those timelines had been the alpha then we would not have met the humans or created their universe in the first place
we would simply have died when or before the meteors hit and that would be that :0
