If I don't take you seriously all of the time, how will I know when you actually are being serious?

[xochipilli_cursed]

Well, I don't find violence funny. So if I'm doing something violent, I'm serious.

Otherwise, just assume I'm joking.

[headcasey]

Hopefully, I'll figure that out.

[xochipilli_cursed]

Hopefully. I wouldn't get too hung up on it, though.

[headcasey]

I'll try...

[xochipilli_cursed]

[In a low, croaky voice. Basically, a very, very bad Yoda impression.]

Do, or do not. There is no try.

[headcasey]

[She stares blankly.]

[xochipilli_cursed]

Oh, yeah.

... I swear, if I find someone with a vcr and a good video library, I am going to rock your world.

And a TV.

You know what? Your world is probably safe.

[headcasey]

Just as well. We have enough problems without earthquakes.

[xochipilli_cursed]

You're killing me.

Okay, so, what sort of problems do you have here anyways?

[headcasey]

You mean besides all having been kidnapped by the Nysgods?

[xochipilli_cursed]

Well, there is that. Could be worse though. We could be kidnapped by something that wants to eat us.

[headcasey]

Meteors, mind-altering chemicals, games that try to kill us...

[xochipilli_cursed]

Okay, now those are problems.

[headcasey]

A bit.

[xochipilli_cursed]

Does anyone know how that relates to this whole "finding a mate" thing? If it's survival of the fittest, it's going to be hard to cheat and lose.

[headcasey]

No one knows.

Yet.

[xochipilli_cursed]

Probably smart. With so many unwilling victims they'd have a lot of people trying to rig the game.

[headcasey]

Interesting choice of words. Quinn would like you.

[xochipilli_cursed]

Quinn?

[headcasey]

You'll hear about him soon enough. He's a criminal around here.

[xochipilli_cursed]

Really? What did he do?

[headcasey]

No one knows.

Yet.

[xochipilli_cursed]

Yet...

Has anyone met him?

[headcasey]

Possibly. I'm sorry. I can't say any more. I wish I could, but I can't.
