after Kerym's network post; un: shane

[valle]

Hola, chico fuego
Do you plan to burn everything down soon?
The purple woman had a dream.

[firings]

[ Okay first, what the fuck is chico fuego??? He squints at that name, glaring at it for a bit. He understands what it means despite not knowing Spanish, but UGH. Second, he saw that particular post while he’s mindlessly looking through the network. Weirdos. ]

not responsible for someone’s wet dream

[ Probably shouldn’t have made this inappropriate reference to a little girl but John doesn’t particularly care. ]

[valle]

( She doesn't know what that last part means, and she doesn't particularly care — she understands the context. This is close enough to 'no' to be acceptable. )

If someone was on fire, could you put them out?

[firings]

yeah, i can easily do that
why?

[valle]

If everything catches on fire, will you please put the purple woman out?
She let me pet her bird.
Also put her bird out, por favor.

[firings]

[ There's a delay on his end because John just squints at this request for a while. What the hell. ]

you really believe whatever the fuck she's saying?

[valle]

Si.
Why not?
We can do things. She can do things.

[firings]

she can also just be a liar
or maybe the fairy overlords of this place is using her to scare us

[valle]

Did it work on you? Are you scared?

[firings]

no :)

[valle]

Me neither, so it probably wasn't the last one.
I don't think she's lying.

[firings]

how are you so sure?

[valle]

I'm not.
But if she's lying, nothing happens. It doesn't matter if we do nothing.
If she's not lying, something happens, and we're stupid.

( Constant! Vigilance! )

[firings]

[ He's still not sold. ]

this purple lady with wet dreams a friend of yours?

[valle]

She let me pet her bird.

( so OBVIOUSLY YES, duh, jeeze, does this man even remotely understand friendship )

[firings]

what's up with you and birds?

[valle]

They didn't have animals at the facility.
I only met a horse once, after.
Now a bird.
One day a cat. Tell me if you find one.

[firings]

have you seen a dog, then?

[valle]

No. Only pictures.
Tell me if you see one of those, too.

[firings]

too bad there isn't some stupid zoo here
dadneto can take you if he wants

[ He's not saying 'yes' to any of these favors but John will most likely let her know if he does see these animals. ]

[valle]

You wouldn't come to the zoo too?

[firings]

not my thing :)

[valle]

It would be fun.
Fun is what friends do.

[firings]

[ Ugh, what has he gotten himself into? ]

fun's also not staring at boring animals

[valle]

( )

They're only boring if YOU'RE boring.


You call him dadneto
Is he your father?
