ok mr office supply manager
id ask why you picked up post it notes but the answer is because youre you
also rose does it by being a nosy flighty broad
probably
alternately its seer of light bullshit
but honestly
i doubt she needs that to always know more always

only because he isnt here though
if he were here youd have to have a competition for my broship
(not really)

[windeity]

they were in a bag in the forest and they were cool, so why not? now we have them. same with the christmas lights.
i am going to tell her you still call her that.
but also i doubt she needs to be a seer to see everything, too.

i do not think my heart could take it. it's ok, dave, i understand that there is unbreakable bond between you and the mayor guy. i'll carry on somehow.
(but thanks.)
did you see the worms in the sky?

[parodeity]

if you tell her that i will tell her something embarrassing about you

also yeah i saw the worms in the sky
looked for about two seconds went nope and closed the door
please do not tell me you stood around staring a skyworms who were shaking down stardust or whatever
even though the creeping feeling in my gut known as dread is telling me you id just that

[windeity]

haha, like rose doesn't already have embarrassing dirt on me anyway!
i mean. probably.

anyway, that is not exactly where i was going with that but they were kind of cool to watch?
and i didn't stand around staring at them, i eventually sat near our huts to watch instead.

[Now there's a fun game. "Is John Egbert serious or not?"]

[parodeity]

john
egbert
john egbert
that was a total avoidance of the answering of my exact question
dude please stop getting hit with random effects from shit if youre being serious

[windeity]

fuck off, i was overheating and tired and somehow being outside under the worms fixed both of those.
and now i am inside my hut and awake and talking to you again so it turned out totally fine.

[parodeity]

dude im pretty sure the worms were releasing like
space drugs
you did space drugs

[windeity]

what.
no. i do not think that is what happened.

[parodeity]

john thats exactly what happened
they released like magic worm mist
and it made you feel calm
right?
i felt it doing that to me and i went inside

[windeity]

...
I HATE THIS STUPID PLANET.

[parodeity]

technically its an island dude

[ he would say "how could you not notice that" but. no. it's john. he's not as weirdly "why the fuck am i thinking/feeling that" about anything that doesn't seem to fit. dave was anything but calm after a day of death and teenaged bros and john getting sick, and he knew himself well enough to know that the sudden onslaught of calm wasn't him.

it wasn't like going distant, it was like chilling out. ]

lmao
ive totally won our bet at this point

[windeity]

whatever it is, i am not liking this anymore.
also your bet is stupid and this should not count? i did not think the crab would make me sick or the worms would be drugged, and you were outside for a little while, too.

[parodeity]

yeah but as soon as i noticed it i went inside
which
to be fair
its a thing that most people should not be expected to notice

im mostly kidding dude but for serious do you feel ok re wormmist?

[windeity]

i went inside when i got cold again so it wasn't even that long.
and i'm fine, i am not drugged anymore. i'm just tired? like...squid squads are important but everything still sort of hurts and the calm worm mist actually was not that bad in retrospect.

[parodeity]

do you want me to come sit with you or something

[windeity]

[Part of him wants to say yes, but.]

no, it's ok. talking is a good distraction? it will help until i fall asleep again.
you never did explain why you were thinking about squid anyway.

[parodeity]

want me to switch to voice
is reading all this giving you a headache y/n

also i was thinking about squid b/c space worms reminded me of them

[windeity]

uh. a little, yeah.

[Whether that's to "switch to voice" or "it's giving me a headache" goes unsaid.]

worms and squids are not even close to being the same, but i guess i can see the connection.

[parodeity]

[ whatever it's yes to, it's enough for dave's voice to take the place of text, his drawl quiet. ]

They're both tentacle-y.

[windeity]

[Oh thank god. There's a lapse of silence as John sort of gets used to that before there's a small huff of a laugh. His response comes not long after, voice half-asleep yet attentive.]

Worms don't have tentacles, numbnuts. [Idly, he realizes he hasn't heard Dave speak that much in person outside of today so this is also something to appreciate the novelty of.]

[parodeity]

Worms basically are giant tentacles, dickweed.

[ it sure is novel to speak to your best friend with your actual voice. wow! dave doesn't sound sleepy, though his voice is kind of on the quieter side. he's been known to mutter, although he's speaking clearly at the moment. ]

[windeity]

Tentacles are usually attached to something. What are worms attached to? Oh, right, nothing. Because they are not tentacles.

[This is qualify conversation right here. Also look!!! Everything Dave is saying with his voice and his mouth is very important to him right now? He's heard Davesprite for the last three years but. It's different anyway. He's equally charmed every time Rose speaks, really.]

Think they'll come back?

[parodeity]

They are unbound tentacles wigglin' through space.

[ THIS IS AN IMPORTANT CONVERSATION, FUCK YOU JOHN EGBERT. for all that he types over john all the goddamn time in text, he doesn't do that in conversation; he pauses and listens and responds in an easier and less frantic give and take. ]

They might. We'll know if it's a pattern after three times, maybe. So...we can check tomorrow night and the night after?

[windeity]

Weird. [The even monotonous drawl is easy for him to follow and he's relaxed even while listening to everything. Today has been a busy day talking to so many people. This is no exception and he finds the conversation easy even as he hums in agreement.]

We should look. Maybe we can see where they are coming from and get a better idea where other planets or islands are. I do not think the worms live in the sky, so they must come from somewhere else.

[parodeity]

They could, but yeah. Either another island adrift in space, or maybe a meteorite field or somethin'? Or another planet. There are lots of options and like, no way to get off this place yet...until we start world hoppin', apparently, but we can talk about that tomorrow.

[ or whenever. ]

Oh, shit, that reminds me. Happy birthday, Egbert.
