Thank you. Where were we?


AH: XDXD I'm not legally obliged to answer. That information stays between me and myself. XDXD
AH: XDXD Besides, didn't I JUST go over the fact that the papers are, you know. Important? XDXD
AH: XDXD Maybe I just felt like treating them with a bit more respect, since I initially disregarded their intrinsic value. XDXD
AH: XDXD Don't quote me on this, but I've heard it's healthy and normal to feel legitimately sorry about things. XDXD
AH: XDXD You know what, I better apologize. XDXD
AH: XDXD I'm sorry, papers. Truly, I overlooked your rightful place in this operation. It's not about the way you rest on the floor in a sad heap — it's in the way you bind yourself to this awful predicament that we find ourselves in. Together. XDXD
AH: XDXD And I respect you playing the part of peacekeeper in these trying times. XDXD
AH: XDXD Just between us two, I think Taz is being more than a little unfair right now. XDXD
AH: XDXD You don't deserve that callous treatment. Nobody deserves that. Except for me, obviously. XDXD
AH: XDXD Shhh, it's okay. I don't mind taking the weight of your markings on my back. You're in good hands now that I've established a mock dialogue with you. XDXD
PO: ~wow, alrigh+.~
PO: ~+hanks for +he fucking deluge of ye+ more useless derision.~
PO: ~All of +ha+ was EX+REMELY relevan+ and EXAC+LY wha+ we needed +o help us figure +his ou+.~
PO: ~I'm sure +he PAPERS apprecia+e your kind ac+ions and considera+ion.~
PO: ~bu+ jus+ as a +hough+, maybe poli+ely asking +hem wha+ you should be doing from +he ge+ go would make your life easier nex+ +ime.~
AH: XDXD I'm not sure how willing they are to open up at this point. XDXD
AH: XDXD Maybe it would be best if YOU asked them politely, since you can both see and hear us having this very real conversation in very real time. XDXD
AH: XDXD I know, right? XDXD
AH: XDXD Sorry, talking to the papers. XDXD
PO: ~I can'+ believe I'm abou+ +o humor +his wi+h an ac+ual response, bu+ +he audio and visual feeds don'+ go bo+h ways.~
PO: ~I'd jus+ be +alking a+ my screen. No+ very helpful for spoken conversa+ion.~
AH: XDXD You can type your response. I will translate all of your snarling. XDXD
PO: ~Or.~
PO: ~here's a wild idea:~
PO: ~maybe we should ge+ back +o fucking work.~
AH: XDXD And here's an even wilder idea: XDXD
AH: XDXD Perhaps just let me fucking have this? XDXD
AH: XDXD Or better yet. Let me apologize to you for this attempt to lighten up a situation which I have had NO control over so far and was quite literally dragged into against my will, on what is turning out to be the second worst day of my regrettable spawning, only to be greeted with none other than the ONE person who I never wanted to hear death rattle on her keyboard at me again. XDXD
AH: XDXD Oh, yeah! And I'm apparently about to die, unless I follow either your screeching directions or the ravings of an incomprehensible slam jockey with more exposed RGB wires than common decency. XDXD
AH: XDXD Can't forget about that! XDXD
AH: XDXD So, please EXCUSE me for trying to keep my spirits up in the midst of your rampaging temper tantrums, as you just yell the same things over and over and OVER again and act like I'm incapable of understanding even the most rudimentary of concepts! XDXD
AH: XDXD Do you want me to fucking GROVEL at your feet and THANK you for the molten irradiated core that is your CATASTROPHIC ANGER, as if that's not been a haunting specter constantly LOOMING over me for all these sweeps? XDXD
AH: XDXD DO YOU WANT ME TO GET RESULTS, or do you want to continue WASTING YOUR TIME by saying that I'M WASTING MINE??? XDXD
AH: XDXD This is a two way rostrum that you and I are barely standing on. XDXD
AH: XDXD So, if you want something done the YOU way, by all means. Take it to your own personal floor. XDXD
AH: XDXD But as far as MY side of the podium is concerned, I'll keep doing things MY way. XDXD
AH: XDXD And if I absolutely have to, I'll make sure to meet you right smack dab in the middle axis in order to ensure our continued survival. XDXD
AH: XDXD But once this is over, don't you fucking dare think I'm going to keep this little lambasting act up. XDXD
AH: XDXD Once I'm out of here, we're done. XDXD
