yeah, all right, i'm new here. please send your welcome wagon baskets of cookies to my room. i'm hungry.

( but that wasn't the reason he was putting himself out there now. he didn't really want to talk to this lot but seems like that was gonna have to be something he does.

so, he's making it happen. )

what i'm gettin from this place is that i can't go back to where i was, this place is in fuckin' space and those are actual fuckin' stars out there, and you lot like to get fucked up drunk sometimes.

( yes, he'd seen that post of yours, newton. seen it and he was going to remember it for the rest of his life. )

so, since you lot are so ready to offer up advice, i got two things:

one, where can i get a fuckin' good drink?
two, where can i punch the shit out of something? or someone. volunteers? i'm definitely taking volunteers. come on, everyone's so helpful here, right?

look. i wasn't trying to be critical or a little shit to you.
okay that's a lie. i was. but only slightly.

idk. maybe you could try getting a feel for people, or whatever else might be on this ship before you ask to throw punches at them?
what if there's something watching the machine - network - whatever this is, waiting to pick off someone coming across like a jerk?

( she's trying to be helpful. )

[cheapbastard]

so, you think this place might off me just because i'm being a jerk?
that's cold blooded murder, yeah?
who would ever do that?
not me.

[proactive_with_pep]

there's always the probability of getting taken out somewhere for whatever reason.
i bet it happens more if you're a jerk
.
annnnnnnd before you think that's me threatening you, it's not.

monsters. literal monsters. and demons. vampires. not just cold blooded murdering people.

[cheapbastard]

i would hope you'd do a little better at threatening me than that
that's weak.

but you telling me you're murdering literal monster and demons and vampires? that's your thing?

[proactive_with_pep]

that wasn't weak. ☹️
it was good.
vague but good.

i don't murder them!
the term is slay.
i slay vampires.
which is how i stop them from murdering people.
innocent people.

[cheapbastard]

what, you telling me there aren't any good vampires out there?
that just wanna play nice
drink blood and live their lives?

[proactive_with_pep]

there's one good one.
and he has a soul.
which makes him the exception.
all the others don't.

that's their plan.
drink all the blood.
only when they do they aren't playing nice.
they're out to murder.
sometimes they turn you.

[cheapbastard]

have you met all the vampires in the world
if you haven't, can't really say that they're all bad
that's generalizing
not nice
