Okay, I still don't like this, and I still don't approve of leaving home. But I have been told that this is the best method to work out what is what.

I'm Parker. I don't like this. But I'm here.

Who knows how to run a business? I need tips.

	Hardison makes that stuff custom for us. He'd probably have a fit if he heard someone else copying it. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	No one can copy it. Hardy isn't here either. Where's my robot baby! Ugh, is this thing breakable then? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Back where all the rest of our stuff is, Parker. Someplace that ain't here. Probably. You throw it hard enough. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Can't we just get the bus or plane to Portland? Like off the side of a building? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Nothing will be there. This isn't our world. It's some other place. If you wanted to do it, pretty sure that would kill it. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Ugh, we're inside the game! This is stupid. Hardison would like this more. Kill it dead. But I don't have an earbud so I assume this is the best to get in touch when you're out at your other job. Jobs are dumb. I'm not getting one. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	We're not in a game, Parker. You got the brew pub to take care of. That's gonna be enough of a job once it gets up and running. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	We're totally in a game. It's a level. You start off building your world, then something comes and smashes it, you save the princess or the coin or the mouse, and then you move up a level. I want a keyblade, they're cool. I don't have an Amy, or the other staff. I need to find them. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Parker, we're not in a game. ~~Especially not that one where all your people die because you forgot to put a ladder in the pool.~~ What the hell is a keyblade? How about you get settled in and then we'll move on to that. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	So there isn't a race with tiny plumbers and an ape? It's a big key that you use as a sword and you defeat the darkness. I had to reset all my rigging. And the doofer for the screen. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	_thatswhatido 2018-07-23 07:31 pm UTC (link)
	Why is it I know what you're talking about? ...that's not very practical. The little pieces on the key blade, you're just gonna have other weapons get stuck. Doofer. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	thiefjuice 2018-07-24 09:02 am UTC (link)
	Because secretly you listen when Hardison and I play? That's the bits you bash him with, or disarm. It's very technical okay. Doofer. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	_thatswhatido 2018-07-24 12:49 pm UTC (link)
	It's hard not to hear you two when you get into playing. I know technical, Parker, and that thing doesn't seem very convenient for technical. What is a Doofer. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	thiefjuice 2018-07-24 01:56 pm UTC (link)
	That's because Hardison hates losing. No one second guesses Sora okay. The Doofer. The thing with the stuff that does the thing? The clicky thing. The doofer! (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	If you need start up money for a business, I have an account set aside specifically for investing in that sort of thing. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	thiefjuice 2018-07-24 09:04 am UTC (link)
	What does that mean? What is that? Is that a loan? ~~Are you a loan shark~~ (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

An investment? Sort of, I guess. Someone who has money gives it to someone who has a business idea that they think will do well, and they get some of the profits later, since most people don't have enough money to get everything off the ground themselves. Especially if they've just come through a portal from another universe. It's a risk, if the business fails the investor doesn't get anything back, but it's not like it's really my money. Occasionally I rip off casinos and I figure I might as well do something useful with it.

	Wait... we're allowed to rip off casinos? Because I can do that. I can do that blindfolded. Yeah. I'll do that blindfolded. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	I count cards. Not technically illegal. I'm not sure how anyone would react to actually robbing one, but assuming you get away with it, most people probably wouldn't care. We tend to draw the line somewhere around murder or public use of super powers. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	thiefjuice 2018-07-26 08:19 am UTC (link)
	Well, I don't murder or have super powers. So I should be fine. (Reply to this) (Parent)

	Throw it at a wall it's okay but maybe dented and messed up on the casing or a small crack on the screen if you throw hard enough. I haven't dropped it out of the sky yet. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Does it bounce? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Not like a ball. Just physics. Like recoil. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	thiefjuice 2018-07-24 01:59 pm UTC (link)
	I don't like physics. I regularly defy physics. I suppose I won't drop it for now. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	winterfalcon 2018-07-24 06:26 pm UTC (link)
	It's useful to know how it effects other things. (Reply to this) (Parent)
