8th || Sharing is Caring!

[achievementhunter]

[There's no such thing as "accidentally" calling everyone on the Far Stones. One must have consciously made the decision to speak to everyone, like a walkie-talkie that can't be turned off on the receiving end. So when Chara speaks to- everyone, it is with full awareness that they are, in fact, speaking to everyone.]

Poisonous flowers are curious things, did you know? [Which is why they start off on such a chipper note!] For many, it is the act of ingesting them which causes illness or fatality. For others, however... the simple act of prolonged contact is enough- toxins are absorbed through the skin.

Death can take anywhere from a few hours to a few weeks. [By golly, they sound happy about this.] So it's a frightfully good idea to invest in some gardening gloves, should you wish to transplant any flora from Ziziphus to another locale. It could be the difference between a new garden and your rather unfortunate demise.



[Anyways everything's totally chill. Chara's totally fine and absolutely nothing is wrong ever, they just like making these kinds of announcements for kicks. It has Absolutely Nothing to do with failing to request gloves of their own.

You are poisoned?

(Best not to assume after all.)

[achievementhunter]

[A sigh, long and drawn out.]

How am I supposed to enjoy my impending demise when you've all figured out it's coming?

[They're joking, of course.

Mostly.]

[forwearemany]

(Legion doesn't get it.)

You are enjoying this?

(What the fuck.)

[achievementhunter]

I enjoy knowing things others don’t. I also enjoy games.

[Combining the two is like a win-win, didn’t you know?]

[forwearemany]

Your life is in jeopardy.

(Those are some really screwed priorities.)

[achievementhunter]

And? Jeopardy is only concerning when it is not a daily occurrence.

[Consider, if you will, the concept of desensitization.]

[forwearemany]

This is a regular occurrence for you?

(Aren't you a child? Admittedly, several of Legion's former crewmates had absolutely horrific childhoods, so it's not like they're a stranger to this sort of thing, but still.)

[achievementhunter]

The poisoning, or the dire circumstances? The answer is yes to both.

[There are very few on the islands with an experience in pleasant childhoods, Legion- better to assume that as the norm unless told otherwise.]

[forwearemany]

...Acknowledged.

(Perhaps someday they'll realize this. For now, while not horrifying, it remains unusual.)

Though we have also experienced danger as a regular occurrence, we would not consider such situations "fun".

[achievementhunter]

[Acknowledged. Amazing how often they've heard that and similar phrases, these past few weeks.]

Fun is a state of mind; it's simply taking enjoyment from the little things. For example, I may be about to die horrifically from accidental poisoning- but the flowers look delightful.

[forwearemany]

(They chatter.

They're not really sure what to say here, because sadly, shit like this was kind of normal for some of their former crewmates.)

Do you desire assistance?
