Second Chances: the Network

Has anyone moved into the new apartments yet? How is it?

So hey, new apartments, right? Anyone been over to look at them yet, see what we're working with? I was thinking of checking it out tonight if anyone wants to tag along.

[FILTER: JAMES HOLDEN]
Sorry that you're still stuck with me. Thoughts on when you want to pack up and move over to the new place? I mean, we don't have to work together, but I thought it might be easier.

And yes, I could have asked you this in person, but here I can talk to you without sounding like an idiot actually look back at it when I inevitably forget.

Do we have anyone looking for work?

Full time with benefits. My current best employee is a college kid and while he's been doing a great job, he needs to focus more on school than a retail job. I'll still be doing the behind the scenes things but customer service has never been my strong point and I don't have anyone talking me down from cursing rude customers anymore.

I just can't be in there anymore, it feels haunted

I'd rather give the position to someone in our community if it's needed.

This has been...a really weird month.

It's National Coffee Day and like, half the city is giving out free coffee. Anyone want to go around and see how many free coffees we can snag?

These...things around town. They have the most interesting behaviors. Do they seem "quick" to hostility among each other or am I seeing too much into it?

No, the irony is not lost either.

I still can’t quite believe it. After all these years, I finally got one of these babies!

Of course, it’s out of town at some lake, but who cares? I’ve wanted one for as long as I can remember! Who wants to come for a ride?

[Private to Asriel]

At some point we should take a weekend away, spend time with your new pony and have a night at a lake house and check out my new gift too? What do you think?

So, the cupcake that just randomly appeared. That's weird magic that probably shouldn't be trusted, right?

I probably shouldn't be excited to wake up in another reality, but I read a really good manga like this once. There's lots, actually. Does anyone here read manga? I can recommend some amazing ones depending on what you like. My favorites are BL romances, though I started branching out more into other genres more recently after an... incident...

My name's Niko and I should have said that first, sorry I got distracted talking about manga. But also not sorry because manga is wonderful.

Also I am very sorry for being excited when some people just disappeared. That's not exciting.

[Crystal Palace]
I don't know how common this name is in different realities, but do I know you? Are you my friend Crystal Palace? If you're not I'm so sorry to bother you, but I had to ask.

Cool. Okay. Alternate dimension wasn't penciled into my schedule for today, they're gonna be pissed if I'm not there when they need someone to make sure Mason isn't getting too friendly with our body of the week. The last time he lost one of his fangs... just, trust me, no one wants that again, especially his personal assistant/bodyguard/Amazon princess.

So, what I introduce myself? Name, where I'm from, and one interesting fact about me?

Tony. Vancouver. Uh, I can roll my tongue? Like into a taco shape?

Sorry.

ETA: Sorry!

ETA2: I am so fu freaking sorry.

Imagine that you're dying. You don't know how long you have — minutes, at best. What are your last words, if you could choose them? (For those of you who have died — hi, same — pick something else.)

If I was ever given the opportunity to time travel, I'd go back and speak to the sadist who invented glitter. Which was a guy named Henry Ruschmann, for the record. At least, he was responsible for the plastic crap you find in your hair a week later. Thanks, Henry.

I can already hear the arguments that time travel could be used for more fulfilling and altruistic purposes. But I have a rebuttal for all your arguments, before you go there.

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?

If anyone even thinks about having a bird for a pet, we are no longer friends.

So you're having a little bit of a bird problem, hm? My sympathies, I've had a small issue with crows lately, myself. I'd offer to help, but I do hate picking feathers out of my teeth. I might be open to persuasion though...

You can, and should, call me Cat King. No nicknames, for the love of all the gods. It's two syllables, you can manage.

I know we're dealing with killer birds and all, but it is still Father's Day! Everyone wish the BEST dad ever, a happy Father's Day! I love you, Dad.

Anyone else feel a little ballsy more bold than usual yesterday?

Willow

Um, so.... Enid and I kissed and it was good. And yeah. So, yeah. Very good.

Enid

Hey there gorgeous. So, um, did you want to hang out again. Maybe see a movie? Get some food? Do some more kissing? Any of the above?



And maybe will you be my date to the graduation party? And wear the gold converse?

For the record, this is not how you convince a guy he hasn't completely lost his mind. Was the fairytale thing normal for these parts?

I am Captain James Holden. My ship and crew aren't anywhere to be found and I'm told it's 2025 which means I'm a long way and time from home. So going with the assumption that I haven't finally cracked, does anyone have any better information than what the government is handing out?
