Stop texting me and go wash yourself off before you get gored.

Battling your paranoia over text will take too long; that's now become wholly apparent.

[dipolar]

They can try.

(please gore me)

Do the baths cost anything or have opening/closing hours?

[eyeforaneye]

I don't know, I don't frequent them.

Surely someone that can effortlessly dodge a goring can sneak in undetected without paying.

[dipolar]

Why did you even reply to me?

[eyeforaneye]

Typing practice.

[dipolar]

If it's impractical for you, then stop typing.

[eyeforaneye]

That makes no sense.

Besides, now I know your life could be in danger.

[dipolar]

You can voice or video me instead, it makes more sense to me if you're bad at typing. Though you don't seem it, so I can't tell where your problem lies.

(the "typing practice" sass has grown legs and walked away from them.)

Regardless, my life being in danger isn't new. I'll be fine. I'd just rather not have to deal with the violence at this time.

[eyeforaneye]

If I'm bad at it then I'm going to keep doing it until I'm good at it. I don't need a crutch.

I understand your perspective. The threats are new to you so you shouldn't underestimate them so casually, however, especially since knowing you could potentially die forces me to have some responsibility.

What's your status now?

[dipolar]

The same as it was 5 mins ago.

The last thing I want hanging over me is your responsibility. You're absolved.

[eyeforaneye]

As if it's so easy. I hold myself to a higher standard than whatever some stranger wants for me.

[ Be silent and allow me to care for you, worm. ]

Make some progress already. Do you need more information?

[dipolar]

I'd sooner stop updating you on my situation.

What info? On pheromones?

[eyeforaneye]

That's just being petulant.

On anything. On what to watch out for, what to avoid, where to go, your surroundings. Be specific.

[dipolar]

Or fielding someone too invested in what's going to happen to me.

(v suspect)

You're the one who offered info, you expect me to ask after specifics? Fine, tell me why no one's discovered what's going on here yet.
