I don'tknow what to do now



instructions needed

[advanced]

You don't need instructions, Ecks, you're free to make your own choices. It's scary, I know.

[ecks]

I would like instructions

[advanced]

Okay...

Then stop a moment, unless your life is in immediate danger right then and there, and just think if what you're about to do will actually solve the problem before you do it.

[ecks]

Acknowledged
I will do this
I have added it to my book

[advanced]

[He doesn't particularly like this, it feels like he's failed, but he does understand the appeal of guidelines and so he won't argue against it any more.]

Okay, Ecks. Just-- take care.

[And with that, he'll hang up.]

i need you for something
where are you?
do you still have the card for that machine in the school?
and the keycard for the power plant gate?

[darkincrement]

I never wanted friends from the start.

[ This is a competition over who didn't want to be friends first, right? ]

What worth are you then?
You aren't even a person.

[ecks]

I never wanted friends but then I had friends and it was good and I am good at having friends and that means I ma better at that than you are at it and I am a person i am as much of a person as you are a person or maybe more because you are a jerk

I am at the hospital with Davesprite and the Cat and Karkat because Karkat is not dead anymore
I still have the card and the keycard
the keycard is notneeded now because the gate is open

what do you need

[rubikscomplex]

[Oh! Perfect. She's right nearby.]

meet me at building 34 in two days
i need the keycard for the school to copy a couple of programs

the powerplant key might unlock things inside the powerplant
we need to get it to someone who can explore that area better

[darkincrement]

Hotstud takes the jerk crown around here.
Does that make him less of a human than me?

[ecks]

acknowledged
who do you want to give the powerplant key to?
I have been in the powerplant and I did not unlock anything else

[ecks]

YOU take te jerk crown
you are the crown of jerks!!

[rubikscomplex]

chaos, maybe
he's a climber
might be able to look around more inside the tube going down to the reactor

[ecks]

that seems like a way to die
but also chaos makes chaos's own decisions

[rubikscomplex]

[House rolls his eyes.]

glad we're on the same page
i'm traveling with two people right now
and faking my limp
don't act like it's weird that i'm using my cane when you turn up

[darkincrement]

Why do you keep responding?

[ecks]

acknowledged
why are you faking your limp?
do you want them to think that you are weak and vulnerable?

[ecks]

why do you keep responding?

[rubikscomplex]

i want them to think i'm less trouble than i am
one of them, anyway
the other one knows i'm faking it, too
just don't antagonize either of them
you'll be fine

[ecks]

[So that's a yes.]

should I pretend to be less trouble than I am?

[rubikscomplex]

well don't threaten to stab them or hit them with a shovel

[ecks]

I do not stab people anymore
you cannot stab people with a shovel or a hatchet

[rubikscomplex]

let's just go with no threats
period
