hey sup this is dave
if you havent memorized my hex code yet
this would be easier if we had hex code fonts
and then you could go oh i know that shade of red
its that cool dude
with the shades
but since that isnt a thing we have you will have to take me at my word for it
it being that i am dave
strider
i dont think there are other daves here actually
do we even have any repeat names??
you would think we would
like
two marys
throwdown for who gets to be mary and who has to be mary last initial
wait ok that wasnt what i wanted to talk about
so minato and i were talking the other day and neither of us thinks this place has a name
like yeah the districts have names whoopdedoo
but the actual city
town?
whatever
the actual place itself doesnt seem to
unless someone found a super convenient sign and didnt say
so like we should pick a name so we can refer to it as a thing
maybe
so suggest shit and then in true internet fashion +1 anything you like
like in the comments here
its a forum thats how you forum
idc if you all highjack one anothers comments btw
let loose

The town could be named Shitsville for all I care.

Tell me more about them. Shadows? How did they attack? In what number?

["run when you see them" makes Guren more curious, but he still won't go out blindly.]

[parodeity]

like
i can give you a report later but idk there were a lot and they were impervious to swords
fuck that

[swordfucker]

Later puts more people at risk. Though you still haven't made it clear if they're out to kill.

If you can't get to it now, I'll take later. But one question first: regular swords, right?

[parodeity]

im pretty sure you can run away from them
so my suggestion of "yo if you see one run" stands
and yeah
well
no?
i dont know
my sword is supposedly special but no one ever cleared that up much

i guess if you want to end up as pictured youre free to not run from them though
like that is an option people have i cant exactly enforce my firsthand advice
which is "this hurts avoid it"

[swordfucker]

I'm not reckless enough to run into danger on my own without knowing what I'm getting into. But I fight vampires for a living and you're a string of letters and numbers. I don't know your full name, age, experience, so it's hard to say if my black demon series blade would make a difference.

What did they do to you?

[parodeity]

i gave my full name up there
did you not read that part
and im technically 16 if you discount time travel which i do because its a headache otherwise
and experience is subjective and if you arent going to take me at my word you arent going to take me at my word
im not really up to arguing about it rn if thats what youre looking for?
idk if your blade would make a difference or not but im not sure how that would be a thing i would know
based off one encounter with a thing where i can only say that my own sword and someone elses sword didnt work
so
yeah?

energy draining
guess they can be friendly if youre lucky tho if you read down to #cc0000

[swordfucker]

[He did skim read some of this, he's not even going to admit it.]

I'm not looking to argue. I'm just trying to get information. [Tone doesn't travel well over this thing, does it? It doesn't help that he's always so blunt sounding anyway.]

Time travel, huh. Sounds like a mess. If they stay in the forest, then there's no real reason for me to seek them out, I guess. But if they come closer, I'll see if my demon can do anything.

Friendly, though? Haha. You got the wrong side of that deal. Maybe they didn't like your face.

[parodeity]

time travel is always a mess
and yeah maybe?
it could be we like
went in the wrong direction or our going in one place made them mad i dont know
i just suggest no one let them touch you
unless youre sure itll go well

i guess i should meet up w the other dude and compare actual notes at some point to see what we did different

[swordfucker]

So direct physical contact is what drains your energy? It's no wonder people made for close range would have issue with it. Reading on it, it could be that you entered somewhere, like you said.

Still, comparing your approaches wouldn't hurt. I wish it were that easy to teach normal kids that lesson. Guess time travel gave you some brains.

[That's praise I swear]

[parodeity]

been fighting dumb shit since i was thirteen
you eventually get ok at it or you get dead

[swordfucker]

Haha, so you do get it. Good. That means you're more likely to survive here, too.

[Hard same, though] Are you feeling any better now?

[parodeity]

eh ill live nbd
how are you
actually
whats your name anyway

[swordfucker]

Guren Ichinose. Nice to meet you, I guess.

[parodeity]

yeah you too
a/s/l

[swordfucker]

[What is this, the 90s??]

Seriously? 24, male, Japan. Where are you from?

[parodeity]

texas
usa
dang i didnt think you were a legit adult
there seem to actually be a lot of those around here

[swordfucker]

[Huh. He's already established that people from Japan can even be from a different Japan than him, be he wonders what's going on in the USA. Japan lost all connection with outside nations after the apocalypse.]

You're kidding, right? I keep running into kids. I feel like I'm running my own orphanage.

[parodeity]

maybe we should trade social circles

[swordfucker]

Please. You can hang on to any of those that aren't competent or don't act their age, but I'll ship all the kids straight to your door. You can make friends and hold hands or whatever you want.

[parodeity]

holding hands is not really my thing but duly noted
youre not exactly a cheery customer are you

[swordfucker]

[Yes, good, with his friends not here they can't embarrass him over the network, so he can be a hard ass.]

This situation is too serious to be messing around. I'm tired and hungry and my roommate broke the front door. You want me to be cheery about that?

[parodeity]

was the door rotting or something

[swordfucker]

It was falling apart about as much as everything else here, but I made it through okay. Then he yanked it off the hinges and cracked it down the middle.

[parodeity]

uh wow
is he super strong or just determined

[swordfucker]

A little of both, but more of the latter.

You staying with anyone?
