[ Hmrr, what a question. ]

Unless something big changes, [ Robby answers after a pause. ] Beasts have been around forever, or a long time; and there's the corruption and pollution, too. If there was something that could stop people changing, then-- that'd help, but...

[ But was that bound to happen in their lifetimes? Robby was doubtful. ...they'd probably end up back in the sea before then. ]

Best you can do is try and keep out of the way where you think it'll be dangerous. It's not always gonna work, but it's something. [ A beat, and optimistically??: ] At least incense isn't rare?

All the weird stuff too. Like zombies, or santa. [santa especially. he tries not to think of santa. (85%) ] At least the beasts make some sense. Like cursed energy or angry spirits.

[the rest? he's not sure there's any sense to that.]

That's true, and people are always helpful. [things could be so much worse, regardless of how wild everything was.]

[ God, Robby doesn't want to think about all those bodies just....under them, he guesses!!! ]

Yeah. Hopefully Viktor and everyone'll figure out something with the bloodstones. [ sorry, hal, time for a namedrop. ] Place has to be screwed up in the first place with how weird everything is, but all the magic can't be helping it.

Having all that pollution made from blood magic in the air... it's got to be about as good for everything else as it is for us.

[ So, not at all. ]

[cursed, who is this viktor. a mystery man mob will only hear about in passing, and nod to.] I wonder if there would be as much weird stuff if the blood pollution was fixed.

[the dream. it'd fix beasts which is what mob really cares about! so!] It wouldn't be a bad place to live if there wasn't corruption and beasts and stuff like that.

Sure. [ Probably. It's also hard to imagine it without all that either. ] 'Cept you've got the pthumerians too, they like to get us up to stuff too. People shedding and changing age? That's got something to do with the snake one holding the party this month.

My pthumerian dumped people into the woods last year.

[ Fun!! ]

Oh, that explains a lot. [at some point they have to have a talk about teen daniel (and johnny) because that's been a trip huh] That's annoying, they should stop playing with people like that.

[no respect for their Bullshit. but-] Who is your pthumerian?

[ Nobody needed to experience the first Karate Kid movie in Trench............. ]

Me? Cloverfield. [ Uhhh. ] The one that looks like he's out of a sci-fi movie? He just walks all over the place. Don't know what he's been up to, but he came up to me one day and dropped off a necklace. That's how I learned that out--they do that for you on Blessed Days.

[ But, a huff and a shrug. ] Dunno why. I guess we're connected to them somehow?

[and yet that's exactly what they all got, thank you trench.]

Oh right, I heard about those. They're like your birthday but sometimes they aren't. [well. bad explanation but he's not wrong.] It's meaningful or something? I don't really know why either.

I guess it's nice to get a gift though.

Oh yeah? So what's your birthday? We'll have to see if you get a visit that day.

[ And not for any other reason!!! ]

May 10th. [fool doesn't even realize the trap he's fallen into.] I think mine is Bausphomette. [he pronounces this weirdly but he tried.] She's like a big dog?

[she probably wouldn't love that description either.]

[ fool!!! Daniel's sticking that on the Miyagi-do birthday calendar!!! ]

Yeah? [ There's no sly faces here for Robby's achievement; just a conversation continuing. ] That one's... I don't remember that one. [ Hrm. ] I know about the Tower, Never Mind, and Mariana 'cause they've come up. And The Reckoning? I think they're a kind of law pthumerian.

[ Or...whatever. The Cop Pthumerian. ]

[absolutely duped... well played, robby]

The school talked about her a little when I asked. They said she's one of the nicer pthumerians. [which he's very glad about, surprise surprise.] I still don't really get it, they seem kind of like gods I guess?

[dimple would have loved this shit, he thinks, tried to be one of them or something.]
