When you never know who will or won't come back into your life, especially.

[piratey]

Who you'll be able to find... whether or not they'll remember you.

[restoretherace]

Or remember you the way you want them to...

[piratey]

If they're not from your world that's not even an issue.

[restoretherace]

You'd be surprised. I've met a few people who'd had encounters with my alternates.

[piratey]

Fuck alternates.

[Vriska is slowly sinking into a funk]

Half the time they're not even like you, anyway.

[restoretherace]

Last person I've met who understood that was Nepeta and she left our ranks over four sweeps ago.

[Examining Vriska's margarita glass.] Are you done with that? Do you want something else?

[piratey]

I might try a scotch.

You've got me thinking about shit, is all.

[restoretherace]

I heard the scotch ages very well here. And though I don't want you incurring brain damage I have to admit I wouldn't mind biting you very much.

[piratey]

... Uh. Okay! Little weird there, Maryam.

[restoretherace]

[Laughter.] Sorry. It's been a while since I... drank from anybody. [Ahaha!] I won't, though.


...unless you want me to.

[piratey]

Why would I want you to?

[restoretherace]

That is a very good question to which I wish I had an answer.

[piratey]

... You still have a thing for me, don't you.

[restoretherace]

I have a thing for troll blood which I haven't tasted in years.

[Not a no]

[piratey]

Iiiii still don't really want you to drink from me. Sorry, but them's the breaks.

[restoretherace]

I figured.

[...] I'm not actually very clear on the exchange rate here. Do you think you'll be able to pay for what you have?

[piratey]

I'm not going to worry about it.

[sorry Kanaya, she's still giving you a liiiittle bit of a weird look]

[restoretherace]

I'll cover it if you can't.

[Nnnnnnot awkward not awkward...]

[piratey]

You have money?

[restoretherace]

Yes. Just Marques, though.

You don't?

[piratey]

We don't have a money system.

[she leans back in her barstool, sighing]

Okay. So, who do you miss the most out of everyone you've ever met? It can't just be me, right there at the top.

[restoretherace]

[She puts her hands behind her head, sighs some herself.]

That's not an easy question. There's a difference, for instance, between most despair-inducing absence and joy-producing presence.

The former is probably Eridan and the latter - actually Haruka Takahashi now that I think of it, but you presumably don't know her and towards the end of her stay I discovered that might not even have been her real name. So when I put you at the top it was sort of by the combination of those criteria.

Do you feel the same way? That there are some individuals who you just miss keenly out of inertia, while others had highly likeable traits but would be happier elsewhere.

[piratey]

Oh, so it's just interia, huh! I don't know whether to be relieved or offended.

... I guess I might have some people like that, though. It's pretty divorced from my rankings of who I miss the most, though.

in which I start getting too tired to proofread
