I was at a party where that song came on as people were dancing and they completely drowned out the song, they were singing it so loud

YES YES YES

Utility suddenly felt a strange, bubbly feeling in his chest.

He cracked a smile and raised his glass.

@Terrisman "Wonderful! Perhaps you like to say a few words? Or perhaps not, either is fine." Folen took a sip of his drink.

Utility shrugged, but was for some reason unable to stop himself from grinning even wider.

"I don't have anything to say in particular, no. But . . . thank you."

"I don't have anything to say in particular, no. But . . . thank you."

"Sure, though I haven't really done anything . . ." The bells on his hat jingled as he tipped the drink back, finishing it in one gulp. "Now where did I set my cake down?"

Utility held the cake up, and he took a sip of his own drink.

It was good.

"Yay, thank you!!" He took the plate, and had another bite or two. 

[Through The Living Glass She/They]

He couldn't stop smiling. Odd.

"Of course."

"Of course."

"Hmm, what shall we do now? That lady offered us a plotline, but I'm on the fence about it. Have you ever been on one before?"

Folen frowned. "I'm rather busy at the moment with my friends here, perhaps later? Oh, and only if it's a truly terrible decision."

"Of course! We're friends, aren't we?"

Folen raised his glass. "A toast! To this fellow here, who's name I don't know. I'm sure he fought honorable and bravely in whatever fight it was that he won!"

"It's an awful decision," she assured him.

It fell on its face and was unable to right itself.

Tam smiled at her blush and pointed to two of the theories.

The first and the last one.

She tilted her head at it. This was a really weird fever dream. She nudged it upright with her foot. 

-

 

-Somehow engineered the Nullite race

-Created their lore 

-Took over the colony later (unlikely outcome--- the caves seem to be incredibly well hidden 

-Born Narrator as one of the Nullite people (whatever they're called--- needs further study) and rejected the tattoos in favor of his power

"'Somehow engineered the Nullite race'," she read. "I think he might have done experiments to make them resistant to Nullite or something. You remember what happened to Shoe when he had a bit of the tattoo ink in his system?"

"Perhaps you're lying . . ." Folen squinted at her. "Rarely do people advertise bad decisions as bad."

"Can't say I have," he replied, taking another sip of his pineapple juice.

It squeaked and fell onto her foot.

She tilted her head thoughtfully.

I do . . . that's a good point, actually. What about the last one?

hehehe

I'm liking him more and more

"Rats, I'm on my own then . . . would you be interested in coming, Utility?"

He nodded eagerly and smiled widely again.

"Well that's reassuring! I'm glad I wouldn't have to do it alone >_>"

She shrugged. "It's a good decision for some reasons. But it will be quite painful."

She stared at it. "The heck are you?"

"'Born Narrator and rejected tattoos'," she read. "Perhaps he was born as a Narrator into a Nullite family. That wouldn't explain everything, though. It doesn't explain where they began. Thus, I prefer my other theories. It might make more sense as to his existence, though. I'd speak to him myself, but my Author is far too lazy to write that out. Perhaps you'd consider speaking to him and asking his age? Perhaps try and verify some of my theories?"

I like him too

Boy shook his head no and tapped his mouth. His nails were long and filthy.

"A baby penguin," it said in its macho-voice.

-

That would make . . . more sense . . . but . . . well, sure. I'll talk to him.

Beosta appreciated being sober.

Lady Bug grinned and retaliated with her own poems to Bacon, sung by a chorus of bugs with perfect pitch. Then she added a light show. 

She searched each of them. 

She found the Wall quite interesting, but didn't particularly care to breach it. For now. 

Rose stared at it. 

-

Symbol blushed and didn't remark on the turtle. 

"My theories?" She reread the page again. 

 

and it's uncertain how long he's been there. The citizens don't seem to fear him, so perhaps the deeper caverns have destigmatized Narrators, at least to some extent. Needs further study. 

Theories

-Somehow engineered the Nullite race

-Created their lore 

-Took over the colony later (unlikely outcome--- the caves seem to be incredibly well hidden 

-Born Narrator as one of the Nullite people (whatever they're called--- needs further study) and rejected the tattoos in favor of his power 

"What specifically seems to need clarification?" 

"It looks to me like you two need a plotline," Lady Bug said. "How would you feel about being part of an experiment?" 

Don't worry. She only wants to cause them great emotional pain. 

The some of the Nullite boxes were empty. Most didn't have an opening where she could get in. Eof's house was locked. Perhaps knocking would help.

"Yup."

She nodded and took Bat's hand.

She picked up the Nemesis book again and flipped to the next page.

He nodded.

"An' wha' does that mean? Why are they pointin' at me?"

"Pointing at you is not the important part, that just means that you are capable of exiting here with me, which I already figured. I was simply curious about how they would work while in a thought-space."

"Soo . . . it sounds like we really are going! Perhaps once the parties done? I'd hate to miss any festivities."
