No but

I might be the reason someone else is

[ :( ]

[ NO NOT THE FUSSING!! ]

Hey I'm just trying to keep up
still reeling from your puns and i haven't heard any in days

Edited 2018-06-27 20:51 (UTC)

Huh? You mean your friend??
If so that's not correct at all ://
It's true that we still don't know how the selection process works exactly but there's apparently no way for the *administrator* to influence it, so your presence here definitely can't have made it more likely for him to show up!
Assuming that IS who you mean anyway

[ FUSS FUSS CAREFUL FUSS. Awww, look at the dumbass feeling guilty for things beyond his control. #relatableasfuck ]

And I'm so sorry! I didn't mean to *freeze* you out of the pun supply :(
*Ice* see that you obviously enjoy them more than you'd admit!! So *flaking* out on you like that was pretty terrible of me, huh.
I guess I should have *thaw-t* about how badly this would affect you.
>:3
> :3
>:3
> :3

(that's me wiggling my eyebrows)

You sure about that? Cause there's sure a hell of a lot of people here that know each other from before.

This stays between us btw

[ can't have some randos finding out he cares and all. SO RELATABLE ]

[ attached is a voice file that contains nothing but A REALLY LOUD GROAN which is, surprisingly enough, not sexual in any way ]

[ ofc who knows what Jack might think but still ]

when I get home I'm buying an island and declaring a state

AND PUNS WILL BE A *PUN*ISHABLE CRIME

Of course I'm sure. Or as sure as possible without concrete proof. I kinda figure it must just be easier to grab people from certain times and places than others?
And even if I'm completely wrong and whatever brings us here DOES go like
"oh yes I like this dude I snatched up, I'm gonna get me some of his buddies so we can go full soap opera"
then it still wouldn't be your fault, would it? It'd be the fault of whatever chooses us! What are you supposed to do, be less cool somehow?? >:P
(And don't worry, I won't tell anyone. Promise. If I even THINK about spilling that you actually do have cares and concerns, you have my full permission to eat my cupcake in front of me while telling me how delicious it is. Serious stuff.)

[ THE HORROR. The groan makes her laugh, though. V I C T O R Y. ]

You can't pun about instating punishments for puns! That's hypocrisy!!
Hypuncracy? No that sucks wait

Hypo-quip-cy! MUCH better.
And I'd be forced to declare war on your corrupt dictatorship and nobody wants THAT :|||||

It'd be my fault for being here and not being able to prevent it.
Again.

[ HE'S TRYING TO GO FULL LVL5 FRIEND DRAMATIC BACKSTORY HERE AND YOU KEEP PUNNING HIM, ANGEL. FOR SHAME. ]

I'd even let you get a sniff to make it hurt more.

[ or, you know, torture, murder, etc etc. ]

Wars would be a lot easier if it were just the leaders duking it out
And by that I mean fucking fight me

Again?
I'm *assuming* that the previous time didn't involve universe hopping and heaps of snowy mystery rakkshit but you never know I guess
What happened??

[ tell her so she can fUSS INTO OBLIVION LIKE SHE HAS NEVER FUSSED BEFORE

I mean what ]

I'll only fight you when you form your terrible punless joyless island of HECK, dude!!!
And I mean I'm to weedy to actually do the fighting myself so it'd have to involve throwing a robot army your way or something
Robots trained in the art of wordplay and weaponry! Puns and guns!! >:OOO

Promise you're not gonna talk to him about it
Or anyone else preferably

[ just you watch he's gonna make you fuss over Xanxus of all people ]

YOU MEAN MY ISLAND OF HAPPINESS AND TASTEFUL HUMOR I'M SURE
I was thinking more along the lines of undies and pillows kind of fight for you but that sounds more fun tbh
Give me your killer robots

I promise!
I'd pinky promise but I can't reach halfway across town so you'll have to accept the regular type
If you need promise collateral or something just bear in mind that you can probably straight-up murder Rhys with words if you need to get back at me! So spillllll. (If you want to.)

[ She's pretty sure she won't be talking to Xanxus about anything, anyway, since she has more of a rapport with his precious perfect tiger friend. Who she has already named Mr. Tumbleson in her head because she doesn't know what he's actually called. THE INDIGNITY OF IT. ]

Hey, I can put the *robots* in undies if you really want? It's nontraditional and kinda impractical but whatever turns your crank, dude, I'm not judging :P ♥

[ LOOK SHE TEASED BACK it's a lot easier via text ok ]

[ oh hey that is a good point. he suddenly feels rather secure. ]

Long story short he had a fight with his father
So he imprisoned him in a block of ice
For eight fucking years.

And I heard it happen and I couldn't do anything.

[ a moment of silence for INTENSE MANPAIN ]

Those scars aren't just normal burns. It's frostbite.
See where that's going yet?

[ THIS IS HELL. THIS IS WORSE HELL THAN FOR ANYONE ELSE.

[ The tiger is actually called Bester and honestly that's not any better because it's like a child claiming his cat is the bestest but you know. ]

That is an emote of judging. >:p

...Okay wow that is fucked up
Not even effed up. It deserves the full fuck. What kind of asshole even DOES that?
I mean I know I'm not one to talk about years of imprisonment via terrible dads but at least mine had reasons beyond "durr we had a fight" to do what he did and also I wasn't stuck in freaking ICE?
Did you kick his ass later because I really freaking hope that you did
Still not your fault that it happened, though
Even if you HADN'T been really young when it happened! And I assume you were because you can't be much older than me :\

[ ERehgrgrhg. And with all the snow here! That can't be easy for the guy. It's probably the reason he was being such a dick when he first arrived, right? Because trauma.

Hahahahaha hahahaha, ]

(and it's not a judging emote, I put a heart after it and that negates the judginess)

Oh I'm sure he had "reasons"
Being a fucking coward most of all

[ also, you know, like... doing the right thing and saving the world probably, but then, chances are Xanxus wouldn't have become the equivalent of a nuke going off in a tightly populated area if the man had spared him a single proper conversation about everything ]

We tried. The old bastard's too damn resilient. But we made him suffer at least.

[ because "kick his ass" means "murder", right ]

I was still there. I knew what I was getting into. Or I thought so. It ended up being... quite a bit more.

[ THIS IS A GUILT HE CONSTANTLY LIVES WITH it's actually pretty sad and makes him put up with all sorts of abuse despite his otherwise kingly self esteem. JUST NORMAL PEOPLE THINGS, NOTHING TO SEE HERE. ]

(oh fine
not entirely judging emote)

People like that always ARE cowards
If they just hide away the source of their problems somewhere where it can be kept quiet and compliant, they don't have to actually FACE those problems! And they can just pretend everything is fine and that they *aren't* just a pathetic pile of skagshit :)

[ not that this is hitting close to home at all, ]

And I still don't think it's your fault. What could you even have done differently?? If you both couldn't get rid of Crapsack McFreezedad *together* later, I don't think the tinier and babier you could've done it alone
I know guilt isn't so easily dispelled (and especially by a third party who has nothing to do with the situation), but
Iunno! I just thought that you should know that someone *incredibly* intelligent doesn't think it's your fault in the least. >:P
How did he end up getting out of the ice? Did you help??

Yeah EXACTLY!

[ listen he may not know what skagshit is exactly but he approves of the sound of it. totally seems appropriate okay ]

[ noooo stop trying to un-hurt him ]

I don't know. I should have done something. Taken his place if nothing else.

[ because it's totally okay to wish you had been imprisoned in cryo for nearly a decade, ]

I wish. We're still not sure what happened. Old man had a change of heart, probably.

[ Either by himself or someone convinced him of it. That particular kind of signature magic had to be dispelled willfully, but considering Squalo's not that clear on the details of its workings himself, he's not even going to try explaining it to someone less familiar with Sky Flames. ]

[ SHE'LL NEVER STOP. She's going to fuss and soothe and meddle until he LIKES it. Or something. DWI. ]

Come on. COULD you have taken his place??
Because the kind of person who freezes his own son out of cowardice doesn't seem like the kind of person who'd be like "oh ok sure let me just free him and get you all iced up, my dude"
"ok there we go, one Squalo popsicle"
"haha hey son no hard feelings over me wanting to do that to YOU, right, run along now kiddo"
Right??
If you'd even tried then you might have just been messed up too (or worse!!), and then you might not have been able to be there for him when he got out! So it sounds to me like you did the right thing
Though that could be my own aversion to being alone speaking? Iunno. :P

[ See? FUSS FUSS MEDDLE MEDDLE. ]

i could have gotten in the way of his fucken ice beam
bought a few more seconds
theoretically, if could have moved at that point i would have
i just wasn't strong enough
and i hate that

[ and he'd been fighting, like, five adults at once at the time, so, you know ]

[ That's hecked up. Squalo is hecked up. Which isn't exactly a shock or anything, but it does mean that Angel is internally filing him under "low-key fuss at all times" in her very complex and layered set of fuss categories.

dun worry bb she'll kiss all ur brain booboos better. ]

You were a child, dude. I think you were plenty strong just because you *wanted* to help so badly. When *I* was an adolescent I was freaking useless and just did everything I was told all the time
So I know it doesn't fix anything, but I think you were pretty badass!
(And now you're *hella* badass, obviously)
Does he think you should have been able to do more?? Xanxus, I mean :(

[ that is honestly an understatement but she is not wrong. ]

Teenager, and I was already Sword Emperor at the time.

[ STOP TRYING TO BE REASONABLE ANGEL!! EVERYTHING IS TOTALLY ON HIM!! ]

No I
I think he knows I think that
But he never said anything about it

[ So it's like... he doesn't blame him??? But also doesn't abscond him enough to actually dissipate that conviction for him? Shit's Complicated ]

Teenagers are pretty much children, you ass!! What I said still applies
When I was a teenager I thought that all bandits were terrible, that the sun shone out of Jack's butt, and that looking like a tacky mall goth was a valid fashion choice. Teenagers are *lame* and it sounds like you were less so than most!! Geez :T

And I mean
Is he the type to hold back if he thinks something? To not say it out loud even though he knows it'd hurt you??
Because ok if so but
I didn't exactly get that kind of impression from him :PPP

[ ACCEPT THE FUSSLOGIC, FUCKER ]

Not really no
We don't really keep secrets as far as I know

[ how gay is that ]

That's not gonna stop me from feeling like shit about it though
So I'm a bit overprotective
I guess

Edited 2018-07-08 14:34 (UTC)

Oh no that's cute. On both counts! Perhaps even *precious.*
Don't worry, I won't tell anyone that you secretly have a gooey centre under the spiky exterior! It'll be our secret. >;PPPP

[ look

she gotta tease

she gotta ]

But seriously I know one conversation isn't going to do much
(even if it IS with an incredibly smart person who knows a thing or two about blaming yourself for things you shouldn't B3)
but it's worth bearing this stuff in mind! Hopefully it'll help at least a little
And if not there's always hugs, my dude >:V

Shut the fuck up

[ but his mood has marginally improved because teasing isn't sad ]

ARE YOU THREATENING ME

[ ew hugs ]

Never!! You *care* about people and that's adorable B))))

And wow no hugs aren't a threat?? They rule!
They're warm and comforting and release happy hormones. It's science :|

[ Though that's probably not very convincing to this particular audience, is it ]

And I guess they're a good way of discreetly copping a feel if you're so inclined???

[ THERE THAT'S BETTER ]

I care about my family, that's different

e w

[ not really better but at least it's funnier so he'll let it pass ]

yeah see the problem with that

i'm never discreet ;)

Still cute, dude! You're gonna have to deal with it
B :)
B:)
B)

(that's sunglasses falling down over my eyes in case that wasn't clear)

[ Her life for a proper DEAL WITH IT gif :'C ]

And wow I for one am shocked
*SHOCKED*
that you of all people would find it hard to be quiet and discreet???
I'm about to straight up faint here I am so effing stunned >:P

you're like some kind of an emotes wizard

[ he probably wouldn't have understood that without the explanation sorry ]

it's not that hard it's just stupid and i don't like it >:P

anyway take care, don't stay in the bunker too long
