[There is a mildly anxious child on the feed, sitting on the edge of the community building roof as she munches down on some potato chips; this child's diet is 1000% on point. But more importantly, she flashes the video feed several stories below toward some of the trees. The little accent is full of confusion:]

They are dying. What are they sick with?

Shouldn't someone do something to save them? ¿Dónde está el jardinero?

[Seriously, nobody seems concerned about the leaves all falling off. Or them turning odd colors.]

[ It's way too soon for him to be getting a headache. He squints at her chewing, ]

You know, you could at least stop doing that when you're talking to people.

[chew chew chew]

Why?

[()`-`()]

[potentialed]

Because it's rude.

[ ノಠ_ಠノ ]

[shoplifter]

¿Por qué?

[potentialed]

Partially because it shows a lack of interest in what the other person is saying and partially because it's kinda gross to watch other people eat in front of you. Like someone chewing with their mouth open.

[shoplifter]

If they don't like chewed food, they shouldn't stare into my mouth.

They do it to themselves.

[ #no #thereisnovictoryhere ]

Technically, you do it to them because you're the one who keeps eating.

[shoplifter]

Eating is important for staying alive.

[CHEW. CHEW. CHEW.]

[potentialed]

Chips do not help you stay alive and you can survive long enough to have a chew-free conversation with someone.

[shoplifter]

They're made from potatoes.

[This entirely validates her eating them.]

You're one to talk, asshole.

omg

[potentialed]

[ He actually guffaws because REALLY, Jones? ]

Pot meet kettle, asshole.

[hardedged]

That's the best you got?

[ 'cause it ain't much, strange. ]

[potentialed]

You're right, I should've gone with my first instinct and called you a "dick".

[ When did this become a competition? ]

[hardedged]

[ since right now. ]

Classy.

[potentialed]

Because you're always so classy yourself, right?

[shoplifter]

It's rude to call people dicks.

[potentialed]

Well, when you stop chewing while talking, I'll stop calling people dicks.

[ikols]

[ It's like watching a tennis match in this post. ]

It is so rude, but Stephen sucks at trying to be nice. You have to show some patience with him, he's only a brain surgeon.

EXCUSE YOU /threadjack

[scoutsniper]

You're lecturing someone else about what's rude?

You some kind of etiquette expert, on top of doctor wizard guy?

bless u friend

[potentialed]

[ OH GREAT. This Guy... ]

I didn't know remembering common courtesies made me an "expert". Good to know.

the hateship continues

[scoutsniper]

She's a fucking little kid.

Don't expect me to believe you were the king of the goddam food pyramid when you were her age.

*bromance u mean

[potentialed]

[ And people are talking to HIM about his language? Okay. He sees how it is. ]

When I was five I knew not to chew with my mouth open. I'm giving her leeway, all things considered. There's nothing wrong with bringing it up now since she insists on doing it.

[ Adding, dryly, ]

I think she can handle being told as much.

[ Says the guy that got bodyslammed by this "kid". ]

best bromance

[scoutsniper]

[ No one talks to Frank about his language because they're probably too scared. ]

Yeah, well, you're hardly a goddam role model.

Look, if you don't like how she's eating or what she's eating, buy her something else. Talk is fucking cheap. Put something behind it.

[potentialed]

[ Stephen isn't scared of him >( ]

Pretty sure that's the job of her social worker.

Plus, she would probably toss it away just to spite me.

[ LIKE HOW SHE KEEPS CHEWING IN HIS FACE. ]
