Comments

[fracturedsoul]

That's too bad. I was kind of looking forward to it.

[ He reads the old network posts. Sorry if that creeps you out, Dave. ]

[knightime]

books
libra
what???

[Wait, what?]

[fracturedsoul]

Yeah, I get that. It just seems like learning in person would be more effective.
Also,
**library

[knightime]

i know its library jackass
im still trying to figure out what days work
considering every week seems to throw some clusterfuck for its own shits and giggles

[fracturedsoul]

Fair enough.
Let me know if there's anything you need help with.

[ That probably sounds douchey or sarcastic. It's not. ]

[knightime]

yeah
kay
i mean there isnt anything to help with
i got this shit
no worries

[Does being a shitty liar translate over text? Dave is the best liar, of course not.]

[fracturedsoul]

Okay, I get it.
And don't take my idle statement of dismay as pushing you or anything.
It would probably do you good to take a break, come to think of it.

[greenspaces]

where is john?

[Private]

[knightime]

went back to be a hero

[Private]

[greenspaces]

no
no we need him here
dave, he cant leave

[Private]

[knightime]

i got his upgrade and memory with me
you want the memory???
i checked the nurses office or whatever and he wasnt there
and it was on his bed back in his dorm
he went back to the session jade

[He's not going to cry or anything. He has to be there for Jade.]

[Private]

[greenspaces]

no
no thats not possible!!!!
he has to be here!

[ FLEEING INTO THE BROOM CLOSET OH MY GOD the slam is so loud he can probably hear it wherever he is ]

[In person]

[knightime]

[Dave will find you and just sit in front of the door.]

the john that can hear
hell wake up soon i think

[Except he honestly wants can't hear and barely talks John back. He knocks at the door lightly.]

[veepofchess]

You were more impressive than I expected, after what had happened to you prior to the monster's release.

You deserve some rest.

[knightime]

...
thanks
i mean it wasnt that hard to keep up with it
but i guess everyone is starting to learn harder words
which takes a shitton of patience suddenly
really
i just need to find a date
where giant wyrms
or whatever dont suddenly decide to be like
sup
wrecking your shit

[veepofchess]

I meant in the battle, yes. You've even beaten my knight on a few occasions.

I did want to thank you for the forethought in coming along. Having another player on premises proved invaluable.

[knightime]

hes okay right???
your welcome
i mean i mostly went because jade went
but i guess my need to be everywhere is convenient
im glad mostly no one got too hurt

[veepofchess]

Of course.

Yes, I'm glad that despite the unexpected turn of events, everyone was able to rise to the challenge. It makes me hopeful for the future.

[knightime]

we still got five left though huh
i look forward to this
not really

[savedbyasong]

[He reads this, reads the replies. See's Jade's that seemingly has no answer... He doesn't even pretend to understand what he can see of Dave and Dirk's conversation but that's not what was important.

John was missing...]

Dave where are you?

[knightime]

whats up???
you need me for something or whatever?
im not in the room but im still on campus

[action]

[savedbyasong]

[No answer because Shion is searching for him. Luckily Shion can go anywhere Dave can since he has Dave's permission.

He finally found him in the courtyard, by which time he was out of breath and very worried. He didn't speak, just went over and wrapped his arms round him. Because hugs made things better... right?]

[action]

[knightime]

[He almost threw Shion off him. Impulse, only because things draping or wrapping around him were either threats or smuppets. Neither were exactly things he was incredibly fond of. He just stiffened up a bit, relaxing a tad when he recognized it as Shion.]

dude
gay

[action]

[savedbyasong]

[Shion didn't let go even when he seemed about to throw him off, it wasn't like Dave couldn't get out of his grip easily if he wanted to.]

What happened to John? [Still hugging.]

[action]

[knightime]

[Dave is conflicted. He wants the hug, but hugging isn't really what coolkids do. And it's kind of awkward. And he isn't used to this. And, dear lord, the raging emotions going on cannot be tamed.]

went to be a hero
