An Upset Catgirl [Video]

[dictator_ko]

[Ordinarily she wouldn't make a first impression like this. After all, one must show off ones cute side. But right now she's upset. Very upset. So upset her eyes've turned red without her noticing it. Just one of those things from her past life. A past life she most definitely doesn't appreciate, horrifying as her memories had been.

She'd already discovered the Network while trying to Google up the strange number she'd gotten stuck in her head, but hadn't made a post just yet as she read it trying to get a sense of what's going on. She got just enough to realized that this thing was being used by those Numbered folks. She's not sure why it exists or why she can access it now, but she does know one thing: she's upset.]

What's going on? Why am I getting terrible fucked up memories? Why did I get a fucked up knife? And now I have freaky cat ears, too! And I can make a weirdo force field.

Am I one of those Numbered freaks now? Aren't you the guys whose fault it's the aliens invaded? Why'm I one of you now?

And what's with the gross slimy stuff? Is that you guys' fault, too?

Where did you move when your home was destroyed? Someplace safer, I would assume, if you're not willing to leave it.

[witnessme]

It's like I said. We're good.

[jasminebloominginshadow]

[Jasmine wants to snap here, to say she's arrogant for counting herself as one of them after acting like this, but she holds it in]

So maybe you can change your tune, then.

[guitar_case_vagabond]

[That is probably for the best. She's still not entirely ready to forget that shit-talking from up there.]

Eh, sorta? A few of us can, but the rest of them use magic, so... doesn't count.

[dictator_ko]

I'll do that. ♪

[dictator_ko]

We moved to Gateway City. I don't like it as much as Atherton, but it's not a terrible place to live.

[dictator_ko]

That's really vague proof!

[dictator_ko]

I wonder if I'll be able to do that. Anyways, I'll allow you to be my friend. ♪

[witnessme]

But it's still proof!

[No, it isn't, Nux.]

[dictator_ko]

Talking to you's pointless.

[witnessme]

Your hair is pointless!

[dictator_ko]

My hair's stylish!

[witnessme]

More proof you don't know anything!

[See, he can totally keep up with the genius detectives.]

[dictator_ko]

You're the ignorant one! You know nothing about style! Do you think baldness is stylish? It just makes you look like a naked mole rat!

[And in Mina's eyes, lack of style's a great crime.]

[witnessme]

Bruce Willis is bald. So is Michael Jordan.

[He's basically Michael Jordan, clearly.]

[numberedshepherd]

Were you born in Atherton? Or did you live somewhere else prior?

[dictator_ko]

You aren't those guys!

[dictator_ko]

I was born in a town that wasn't as nice.

[numberedshepherd]

What town?

[She might be picking up on the fact that Lazarus is more than just interested in people. He's practically gathering and compiling information.]

[dictator_ko]

Hartford, in Connecticut. We moved when I was two.

[She likes talking about herself.]

[witnessme]

Yeah well I could be.

[dictator_ko]

You wish.

[numberedshepherd]

[It's a personality type Lazarus recognizes and greatly enjoys. It's not unusual for him to get through conversations with them knowing quite a lot about a former stranger, only to leave them wondering what the heck his name is.]

Why did you move?

[dictator_ko]

My parents wanted better weather and a better neighborhood.

[numberedshepherd]

And did they find it, before it all went to hell?
