There's more than just trolls and humans in the universe.

[restoretherace]

...I know that.

Sometimes it's strange to me - the only other trolls I ever saw were the ones with whom we played the game, sometimes the ancestors thereof. And similarly with most other species, only a few small groups. It makes me wonder if there's only one universe where each of us respectively exist, unlike the apparent case for humans.

[piratey]

I don't spend much time thinking about that stuff.

[restoretherace]

That's probably wiser in its way. Semantics can bog someone down.

[piratey]

Demographics were never really my thing, anyway.

[restoretherace]

What is your thing nowadays, then? Is figuring out that machine your main occupation?

[piratey]

I guess so. It keeps me pretty busy.

[restoretherace]

Anything you would rather do?

[piratey]

Well, yeah. I'd rather succeed so I can move on with my life.

Whatever that'll entail.

[restoretherace]

I wonder if there are any other attractions around here.

[piratey]

I don't know about you, but I want to keep drinking this margarita.

[speakveryclearly]

Heh. I've had my experiences with alcohol and I can't say it's much to my taste. Doesn't really compare to blood. But I wouldn't recommend that particular drink to you.

[piratey]

If it makes you feel better I'm not going to get drunk.

[restoretherace]

You can if you want, I can't stop you, but it does make me feel better.

[piratey]

Trust me, Kanaya. If I wanted to, I would.

[restoretherace]

[She smiles warmly, glows a little brighter.]

It's been too long, hasn't it.

[piratey]

Ten, eleven years for me. The hair's new.

[restoretherace]

[Her eyebrows go up.] A little over nine, I think. But it's probably twelve if you count the time since our timelines diverged. [She taps her own left temple.]

[piratey]

When did that happen, for you?

[restoretherace]

In the veil, before everybody decided all of us being teammates was just too straightforward.

[piratey]

I was still playing the game. Doing something with Tavros...

[now she's trying to remember]

[restoretherace]

[A little twinge of jealously tugs at her lips even god knows how many years later.]

Oh. I wouldn't be able to identify the exact event, I stopped watching entirely a certain amount of time after - that debacle.

[piratey]

Me neither. It was so long ago.

[restoretherace]

I have to say I didn't miss all the fussing about timelines.

[piratey]

You didn't still deal with that? It happened all the time with me.
