☆009-I couldn't feel the sting at all; It hit me like an arrow.

Glad to see those little fuzzballs of doom are finally gone. Anything that multiplies that fast can't be natural. Though, it was kind of fun to watch that one herd of them falling in an endless loop beside the islands.


To Lin: I think I just might have found something similar to what you're looking for. Well, part of something.




The chain attached to the bottom is broken, so I believe there's an integral part missing. I suppose it counts as half-found.

No, it didn't. You are rediculous, Gene.

[live_ringer]

...Fine. I'll believe that nothing strange is going on.

[Because it's too exhausting to push farther, really.]

[datswhatshesaid.livejournal.com]

Yes, you're right. Nothing strange is going on, even if some of us are a little weird. But that's okay, there's nothing to be ashamed of.

[live_ringer]

...

I could ask what you're on about, but I'm afraid that'd just start the, "Nothing's weird!" cycle anew.

[datswhatshesaid.livejournal.com]

I just want you to know, that... You can be whatever you want to be. It's your choice if you want to be normal, or something really crazy. And there's nothing wrong with that. Sometimes, I've wondered what it would be like to be weird, and do weird- and sometimes gross- things. Only I don't do them, because I'm not like that. But that doesn't mean there's anything wrong with you, okay?

[live_ringer]

What. The. Hell.


You stopped making sense long ago, and I'm not sure I even want to know what you're talking about, now.

[datswhatshesaid.livejournal.com]

I am talking about... The way you like to wear women's dresses.

[live_ringer]

[He's about to respond writing Boss off as a nutter, when he sees Aim's response. And his brain derails.]


Oh, Jesus Christ.

Okay, there are some things I really never wanted to know about my brother. And that's at the top of the list.

[Someone has been following this. And is... pretty amused. But she takes pity on you.]

It was a memory punishment, Gene. Do not worry, he was not a willing participant.

[imthefavorite.livejournal.com]

Thanks.

[burnt_orangesky]

Yes, well... I suppose he would have heard about it eventually, anyway. It is just too bad it had to be from Boss.

[live_ringer]

[Your pity is oh-so-appreciated, Fred.]

...Oh. Well.






That's the first thing anyone's said about this whole deal that's made any sense. No wonder he was calling in to work.

[burnt_orangesky]

As should be expected when talking to Boss, I suppose. [Refrains from making a comment about the shoes Aim may or may not have been wearing.]

[live_ringer]

No kidding. I feel like I just stepped off the crazy train.

[Aim probably appreciates that.]

[datswhatshesaid.livejournal.com]

...You have a brother that does that too? oh gaaaah- What is wrong with you?!

[live_ringer]

...You have this amazing ability to jump to the worst possible conclusions.

No.

This is the official answer to anything you have to say on the matter. Anything else you may be thinking. Just.


NO.

[datswhatshesaid.livejournal.com]

Really? Phew. That's a relief.

[live_ringer]

[...That was almost too easy. Who knows what Boss is really thinking.

But Gene's just. Going to leave it be, for now.]

Christ. This is probably entirely useless

Boss. Did you know Gene has a brother? A twin brother. As in, we look exactly the same.

[datswhatshesaid.livejournal.com]

No, Derick, I didn't. But if I met him, I would have known about it. Friends have a special mental link, where I would have been able to tell. Also, his name would be different.

[imthefavorite.livejournal.com]

What the- No! I'm Aim, and I'm Gene's brother. You saw me fall flat on my face in the bazaar. In a dress.

[datswhatshesaid.livejournal.com]

That was

[datswhatshesaid.livejournal.com]

Ahh.... Okay. Alright. That... Now it's starting to make sense.

[imthefavorite.livejournal.com]

Is it, now?

[datswhatshesaid.livejournal.com]

Yes, it is. Everything is starting to clear up.

So Gene has a twin brother? Wow... I bet that gets confusing, huh.
