did i just spend $200 on registering the alligator as an emotional support pet so they can't stop me from taking him into the starbucks? don't worry about it.

also, did you know they'll give you free drinks to take your alligator back out of the starbucks?

	Can't you teach him how to reverse it? I don't mind. It's like you said, we're the same. And I'm an expert now, thanks very much. [...] What's the void? I'm starting to see why he stays that way. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

he rather stubbornly refuses to tell me which spell he didn't perform correctly, so i can't do anything until he lets go of his pride (which he won't, because he is, for better or perhaps more likely worse, one of us), otherwise he might explode.

i could use an expert. none of the others were particularly keen to help. the void? it's... the void is where the majority of us find ourselves when we catch the attention of the tva. i was there for, actually i don't know exactly. eons, i suppose. right there at the end of time. it's sort of peaceful when the matter- and world-eating beast is asleep.

it is tempting, isn't it?

	Huh. Okay, fair. I wouldn't want to tell anyone either, especially if I got huge teeth out of it. Wait, hang on. You were trapped there for eons? [...] Fuck. At least I got to see places, even if it wasn't for long. ~~Are you -~~ I'm really sorry. I don't know if I'd go with an alligator, though. Something faster. Or smaller. Like a lizard.

they're not as large as you might imagine, but he was able to bite another of our variant's hands off, so i suppose they're strong enough.

something like it. measuring time really didn't matter then. i don't know if any of the clocks even worked. i just lived what was left of my childhood there and then well, i didn't age for all that time, so there is that, i suppose.

what were some of the places you got to see?

and... thank you. no one has ever said that to me. and i'm sorry for what happened to you too, sylvie.

he moves rather fast actually. when he wants to at least. what sort of lizard?

He BIT someone's HAND off? That's fun.

~~Wow~~ ~~That's -~~ [...] What's it feel like? Not to age, I mean. Do you still feel younger than you are?

Mostly dying worlds. It sounds bad, but things like that can be beautiful sometimes. There's a sort of [...] rush, right before it all blips away. I try to remember each one. It feels important not to forget.

Thanks. I hope it gets better for both of us.

A pretty one. Purple scales, maybe.

clean off. it was rather impressive actually.

i feel older, actually. it's odd, feeling time move. i looked the same for longer than everyone here has been alive and now i'm ageing and it's all rather strange.

i lived in a void at the edge of time. a dying world sounds at least leagues more interesting. and i agree. i've seen a lot of objects and people and places appear in the void and there's always something pretty and sad about them disappearing. i think everything and everyone deserves to be remembered.

i think it will.

we could manage purple, i would like to believe. we can work on it once we sort out where we're going to stay and all that.

	I wanna be there when he decides to do it again. You have the alligator, though. And now the rest of us. That has to count for something. At least we got to see them, right? I can show you some of it, if you want. So you're not staying with Thor and the other us? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	sylvie & loki. unequal 2024-06-28 08:22 pm UTC (link)
	i am positive the opportunity will present itself eventually. now, at least. i suppose i should be grateful. that doesn't exactly come easy to me. it might be ridiculous, but i tried to remember them all because there was no one left to remember me. i would like that. thank you. i was undecided on that. were you going to stay there? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	sylvie & loki. villr 2024-06-28 10:32 pm UTC (link)
	I'm just grateful we're alive. The rest is, you know, extra. It's not ridiculous. I'd want someone to remember me even if I was gone. It's sweet, and I won't hear any arguments. They ~~care about us~~ seem nice, which is suspicious. But you know that Loki, right? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	sylvie & loki. unequal 2024-06-28 10:55 pm UTC (link)
	the rest like food that isn't well past its expiration date? you'll hear none from me. what if i promise to remember you and you promise to remember me? i'm glad i'm not the only one thinking that. i do. well, sort of. he ended up in the void like most of us do and i helped him get out of it.

	You don't have an iron stomach yet? We need to work on that. [...] I like that. Deal. So you didn't know him long. Hm. Alright, you've met a lot of us. Where's he fall on the sliding scale of Loki? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	sylvie & loki. unequal 2024-06-28 11:11 pm UTC (link)
	i do, but getting something that isn't expired is something like a treat. deal. i'd say it was less than a day, give or take an age i suppose, with the way time was. he's better than most i ran into. terrible at plans, but which of us isn't really. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	sylvie & loki. villr 2024-06-28 11:20 pm UTC (link)
	True. It still tastes like shit either way. I'm pretty good at them, actually. And you must be too if you're still kicking around. [...] Why do you think he cares so much about us? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	sylvie & loki. unequal 2024-06-28 11:28 pm UTC (link)
	unfortunately. well, considering the two of us made it, i would have to agree. [....] how old were you when they came for you? i can't really say. guilt, maybe? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	sylvie & loki. villr 2024-06-28 11:46 pm UTC (link)
	Around 200, I think. It's hard to remember much from back then. You? Probably. But guilt won't make us less of a burden. If he gets tired of us, we need a backup plan. [...] More than one. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	sylvie & loki. unequal 2024-06-28 11:53 pm UTC (link)
	i was around 400. one of our other variants, he would conjure images of asgard but after a while, it just didn't feel like home anymore. let's see what we can do with the tempads and the device i brought with me. and watch out for mobius. it seems like he's all too eager to out us and our nexus events.

	I understand. I kept trying to go back for a while. All the versions are wrong because they're not yours. Good idea. ~~Fuck~~ Do you need help? I still have all my knives. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	sylvie & loki. unequal 2024-06-29 12:35 am UTC (link)
	and i watched mine be torn apart in the void. there was nothing left of mine to go back to. i think it's best if we lie low for now but prepare for the worst. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	There never is. Not for people like us. [...] I want to try something, but you have to promise to hear me out first. It'll sound weird. So we stay with them until they start to hate us, then we escape? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	sylvie & loki. unequal 2024-06-29 12:58 am UTC (link)
	there isn't, but the void ended up feeling like home. eventually. what is it? that's the plan for now. we can gather things we need in the meantime. my bag's nearly empty now. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	sylvie & loki. villr 2024-06-29 01:31 am UTC (link)
	I can see your memories, if you let me look. That way, we'll both remember your home the way it was, and it'll never be forgotten. ~~It that st~~ Alright. It's settled, then. I'm assuming the alligator's in, too. I don't speak reptile. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	sylvie & loki. unequal 2024-06-29 01:36 am UTC (link)
	just be careful in there? there's quite a bit that... won't be pleasant. he is in. i can teach you how to speak it. it's rather easy actually. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	sylvie & loki. villr 2024-06-29 01:52 am UTC (link)
	Really? I won't look at anything you don't want me to. Focusing on one memory will make it easier for me to grab onto. It's sort of like catching a fish. I guess we have the time. [...] Thanks, Loki. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	sylvie & loki. unequal 2024-06-29 01:55 pm UTC (link)
	i suppose it's more i have no desire to look at some of those things again. quite a bit of it is... hard to process. i don't know that i ever have. like catching a fish? are you mostly self-taught too then? i have no doubts you'll pick it up. you might regret me teaching you though. he complains the most of every loki i've ever met.

	sylvie & loki. villr 2024-06-29 03:45 pm UTC (link)
	Then we'll leave it for now. I'm a good listener, too, if you just want to talk about it instead. Yeah. Looks like we have a lot to teach each other. [...] We're gonna need more bagels. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)
