so hey i'm Asking For A Friend ;) but how many other immortals are here in the quarantine? any?

also! important question!! what did everyone get told when they got here? what questions did you ask? i wanna know what we're working with! Let's Work Together!

p.s., if you want to answer the first question without a name there are burner phones available at [ small list of locations ] to make unattached accounts. i'm just looking for at least numbers! names would be radical too of course!

I don't like the word 'fate'. It suggests you're not in control.

I'd call it 'accidental'. Even I have no idea how it happened. Just that it did, and I was denied a clean death due to it.

[aeturnus]

lots of people don't like that word

wow you sound kinda similar to My Friend! mind if i ask about "clean" there???

[hellshot]

Depends, are you going to continue calling this 'Friend' of yours by this pointless name, or are you going to actually tell me it's you.

That aside. What the hell do you mean by 'clean'?

[aeturnus]

i mean yes it's me but it's so obvious i figured it wouldn't hurt to keep saying it

you said you were denied a "clean death" because of it! different from a regular death somehow?

[hellshot]

If you don't want to give out your name, it's fine. But there's plenty of fucked up people here, I'm sure you'll fit right in.

As for that...

The grave couldn't keep me, but the effects still linger. If I had been allowed to die, I wouldn't have to keep walking around as a constantly burning corpse.

Instead, I've had to keep on living this last decade, constantly reminded of how I died in a fire.

[aeturnus]

yeah and i can get to know those eventually! this is just a different circumstance? i don't wanna be blindsided!

oh... wow that is a piece of bullshit right there

even if you go swimming?

[hellshot]

Suit yourself. I'm not any great bastion of self-worth who'll do something like tell you to live your life loudly or something stupid.

And who knows. I haven't 'gone swimming' since I died.

Bathing only turns the water a horrid black due to burnt carbon that constantly rises off my skin.

[aeturnus]

loud is overrated, already tried it that way anyway

wow if nothing else i hope your sense of smell at least went when you died! for your sake!

[hellshot]

Taste and smell both took its leave of me when I first died, so don't worry about it.

It's other people that have to deal with the smell of burning carbon and ozone.

[aeturnus]

glad to hear that part was at least... merciful??? something or other like that

not pleasant but you seem pretty cool so i'm sure it evens out!

[hellshot]

[How dare you use the word 'merciful', that's terRIBLE.]

You won't think that if you ever meet me face to face. But the sentiment is appreciated.

Planning on staying anonymous until furthur notice, I figure?

[aeturnus]

[ holy shit I didn't even realize that ]

won't think it's a good thing for you? nah

well i don't know about that it's just easier to talk to someone first without knowing you'll have a bunch of unknown onlooking strangers knowing who you are too!

[hellshot]

Won't think it's a good thing for you.

Most would agree with me when I tell you that I'm not exactly the type you invite out for a beer and a chat.

[Insert some edgy line about being a sociopath here]

I'm hardly judging you for your choice. You're not the first person I've spoken to who's chosen to hide their name and face for personal reasons.

Whatever yours are, I'm hardly concerned.

[aeturnus]

well now that just makes me want to test that statement! you can't just say that!

just curious?

[hellshot]

I can, and I did say it. And I can save your own curious want to 'test' it by telling you I'm about as fun as a bucket of mud.

[he's too old, too tired, and too dead for socializing.]

As for that, perhaps I am, a little curious. After all, as I said, there isn't a thing like me back on Earth. So meeting others is always... a good reference.

[aeturnus]

looks like we've got a solution to both of our problems here if you'd be so inclined to meet up somewhere??

[hellshot]

[He'll hold in the tasteless joke of 'what is this, craigslist for immortals?' You need to be social link 2 or higher to unlock his dark humor.]

You're completely ignoring me at this point, aren't you.

I've already told you I'm unfriendly and a bore to be around, and that I smell like the dead burning, and yet you're still suggesting to 'meet up' somewhere.

[aeturnus]

[ Sure, what's his Arcana for the bonus points? Hermit? ]

no it's more that i don't care? believe it or not i bet i've met worse!

[hellshot]

[Probably the Tower.]

.... I'm willing to take that bet.

[Mostly because noone hated what Reaper was more than Reaper himself.]

Fine. Meet with me somewhere, and see for yourself.

Then you can start on your path of Regret afterwords.

[aeturnus]

probably regret more than Regret

but hey your choice huh? pick a place!

[hellshot]

There's a parkway and garden near the exit to the residential area. It's easy enough to meet up and an open area to easily spot someone.

We can meet there if you're really keen on this.

[See, he didn't even pick a neat place to meet up. Abort.]

[aeturnus]

gonna guess you'll be easy to pick out? i'll take it!

[ Are you trying to talk anonymouse out of it or yourself, dude? ]

[hellshot]

[Maybe more himself than Jacob at this point. He hates socializing. But Jacob's just lucky he hates his roommates even more, and the better excuses he had to be there less, he took them.]

I wear a mask that looks like the icon on my profile.

A one-eyed man would be able to pick me out.

[aeturnus]

now this i really really have to see. soon. i'll be waiting outside!

[ Action? Log? Assumed? ]
