3rd Joke - I Wonder [Call | Everyone]

[xochipilli_cursed]

[[After asking a few questions, Aaron ends up with many more. This town had a lot to take in but he wants to know where he stands with things before they get out of hand.

Taking the advice of a helpful woman he makes a call to the town. Unfiltered.]]


"Hello again. So, about getting things back over time.

Has anyone ever gotten back something they didn't want?

Has anyone been able to avoid getting things back they didn't want? Is there even a way?"

Well, I don't like to brag, but yeah, I do.

"Mind if I call you if I run into something confusing? I'm still a bit overwhelmed but once I start getting things down I might have something useful to ask."

[thief-of-truth.livejournal.com]

I don't mind at all!

[pants-yourmove.livejournal.com]

"Good, because I am seriously out of my league here."

[thief-of-truth.livejournal.com]

Everybody feels like that at first. It's no big deal.

[pants-yourmove.livejournal.com]

"Oh, okay.

I mean it is a big deal but, yeah. I'll have to cope."

[thief-of-truth.livejournal.com]

Yeah. We're all in this together.

[pants-yourmove.livejournal.com]

"If I figure out something I can do to help I'll be sure to let people know."

[thief-of-truth.livejournal.com]

Yup, that's how it works.

[pants-yourmove.livejournal.com]

"Good to know. One of the first people I met in person was pretty terrible. I almost thought I'd find more of the same."

[thief-of-truth.livejournal.com]

Nah, not everybody in this town is bad. There are some, but most of them are okay. And this probably doesn't sound very comforting, but you kinda get used to how dying feels after it happens to you a few times.

[pants-yourmove.livejournal.com]

"Dying? Really?"

[thief-of-truth.livejournal.com]

Yeah. I've been killed twice.

[pants-yourmove.livejournal.com]

"That's terrible.

And doesn't really make sense?"

[thief-of-truth.livejournal.com]

When you die here, you just wake up in your bed the next morning.

[pants-yourmove.livejournal.com]

"Really? That seems to take away the danger of it."

[thief-of-truth.livejournal.com]

It really just means they can kill us as many times as they want, though.

[pants-yourmove.livejournal.com]

"Oh, well then I'll avoid that."

[thief-of-truth.livejournal.com]

...Yeah. Good idea.

[pants-yourmove.livejournal.com]

"I've been pretty good at it so far."

[thief-of-truth.livejournal.com]

Well, keep it up.

[pants-yourmove.livejournal.com]

"I'll do my best. Uh... I hope you don't die again?"

[[Things Aaron never expected to have to say.]]

[thief-of-truth.livejournal.com]

...

I hope so too.

[pants-yourmove.livejournal.com]

"If you ever need help, let me know. I'm pretty good at getting away from trouble."

[[And now bad things don't just randomly happen around him, so he's willing to try to help.]]

[thief-of-truth.livejournal.com]

I will. Thanks.
