hello again
i have two questions
so if anyone could help me that would be great!

first question
does anyone know where i can get a whip
boondollars or troll caegars might not be the right currency
so if i can owe you a favor that would be nice :)

second question
i want to see whats under the city!
it sounds interesting
and im okay with not getting close to the clock i hear theres a barrier
although i probably want to get there someday
so does anyone know how to get underground
even better
does anyone want to come with me :)

is not
and im not planning on it
ive died enough and id like not to do it unnecessarily
and yes youre right
its interesting to be in a human city but it sure is a pain for stuff like this

[thekidsare0kay]

yeah it's pretty damn unacc0mm0dating in my 0pini0n
but wh0 kn0ws maybe we can get s0me0ne t0 make it
we sh0uld ask gz where he gets the slime f0r his pies

[aliveandticking]

oh good i was wondering if he was ok
as long as we have slime somewhere well be fine
hes the most in need so i dont mind going without

[thekidsare0kay]

y0u think s0?
i was thinking maybe it w0uld d0 him s0me g00d t0 c0me d0wn f0r a while, heh

[aliveandticking]

no he really shouldnt do that
trust me
ive seen it happen a lot

[thekidsare0kay]

what d0 y0u mean, aa?

[aliveandticking]

a lot of the doomed aradias had to prevent certain things from happening in the alpha timeline
until it was time for them i mean
one of those was gamzee sobering up

[thekidsare0kay]

why? what happens if he s0bers up?

[aliveandticking]

everything gets very colorful
sorry if it hasnt happened yet for you i really shouldnt say

[thekidsare0kay]

0h well gee
c0l0urful
that s0unds great, 0ther than the fact that i can't see any c0l0urs
are y0u really telling me this is sp0ilers and y0u w0n't elab0rate?

[aliveandticking]

itll only make you depressed
trust me on this one

[thekidsare0kay]

because i'm always s0 cheerful
0kay aa, whatever i understand why y0u d0n't want t0 tell me
i pr0bably d0n't want t0 kn0w

[aliveandticking]

well its always possible to get more depressed especially for you
i dont know if the others know or not at their points on the timeline
i cant stop you from asking them
actually
i guess you might as well hear it here!
so if youre sure you want to know ill tell you

[thekidsare0kay]

t0 be h0nest i have this weird feeling that every0ne is hiding s0me things fr0m me
its really fucking ann0ying actually
i'm n0t a wriggler, i think i can handle a little disapp0intment just as much as any 0f them
but n0, g0 ahead, decide f0r me what i can and can't kn0w
it's c00l

[aliveandticking]

they probably are
they probably dont want you to get into a spiral of negativity!
youd have found out at home soon enough but i thought maybe
maybe
you guys could have a break from all that stuff here!
but fine
sollux the last big branch i watched before i came here
all but four of us were dead!
so sorry for not putting you off going back even more i guess!

[thekidsare0kay]

what
0h my g0d
wh0 are the f0ur?

[aliveandticking]

youre one of them
im not saying anything about the others
i dont know if theyd want to know
if we were in our universe everyone would find out when they need to find out and that would be fine

[thekidsare0kay]

0kay, 0kay
fuck
0kay
i understand
i'm s0rry i was a jerk, aa

[aliveandticking]

i like knowing and understanding things too
but knowing more or less or understanding more or less when you shouldnt means different choices
thats what leads to doomed timelines
and a lot of dead bodies!

[thekidsare0kay]

yeah i guess i get that
s0rry

[aliveandticking]

oh well
there are worse things than knowing things!
i guess you just have to deal with them now rather than when the time comes
it wasnt that long anyway

[thekidsare0kay]

yeah i'm 0kay with kn0wing
fr0m what i understand if we g0 back we may l0se all 0f 0ur mem0ries 0f this place anyway
s0 if that's true i pr0bably can't fuck things up f0r y0u
th0ugh h0w fixing it s0 eight 0f us d0n't die is fucking things up, i d0nt understand

[aliveandticking]

yes in some timelines events were avoided
in those timelines usually everyone died
i dont think theres any way to get around a lot of it!

[thekidsare0kay]

fuck
this is shit

[aliveandticking]

yes
from a linear subjective standpoint
thats an accurate summary
its supposed to end up ok
but i dont really know how yet!
