[IC] Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Artifact>

It kind of is. People have tight connections to some, loose connections to others, and the level of connection between any two people who come here is not the same as the next. So it’s hard to reliably say I could rely on help from one of the many people I just honestly do not know that well.

<Snipped quote by Asce>

I wish I could say the same, Rhoan. But I do know the name at least.

@Revolutionary

Hmmm.
*my eyes light up and I laugh really hard*
You rejected my uncle!! I remember now!

A weight off your shoulders? Liberation. I’ve felt the exact feeling before too, hun. It’s a great gift that he left you.

@Heroic

*looks at you*
You wanna go on vacation or something?

<Snipped quote by Host>

@Path

I’m just Gio. Lily is my adventuring partner.

Legend huh, my cuz is dating is bro. Is he as tiny as I hear?

@Asce

*Smiles*
I can neither confirm nor deny any part of that question. Mr. Colgate is quite tall though.

@Revolutionary

Like some sort of social club?

@Asce

*My pupils restrict and flabberghasted expression washes over my neutral, detached one from before*
A- W- I did what now?

It’s hard to say. You could describe it like that, but I wouldn’t say anything is its 1-to-1 analog.

@Revolutionary

What a weird thing to sort of emerge out of nowhere.

@Zeal

*Loops my arm around yours, smiles, and even lets out an uncharacteristic light giggle*
Wasn’t expecting to talk about that so soon. But yes, I really, really do. I’ve just been working myself to death with you having been occupied with something so important for so long.

@Artifact

The way it sprung about makes sense. A group of people who met and bonded, established a place where they would meet, and their connections all independently started coming here. Repeat that process like a strange, convoluted family tree by several… Many steps and you’ve got an accurate diagram of this place and its visitors.

@Revolutionary

Do any of them not like each other?

*Exhales deeply*
Yes. Yes, that is certainly the case sometimes.

@Revolutionary

Do you have a policy to handle that or something?

@Artifact

It’s not that way at all. You can’t call this collective an organization, seriously.

@Revolutionary

So you’ve got to hope that everyone will be reasonable about it.

@Artifact

Everyone who was harmed greatly by the Balkan War or Nemid conflict nonsense. Because honestly? I don’t blame anyone who still says they need time to recover after either of those. Existence is frail, right now. As a whole.

@Revolutionary

Is fighting the main thing you all do?

@Artifact

That’s a question that varies depending on who you ask. Some fight a lot, seeking it out like they live on it. Some don’t at all, avoiding it like their life depends on it.
*Shrugs*
But conflict finds its way here very frequently. Likely because the type of people in the massive web of connections are also prone to having powerful and petty enemies.

@Revolutionary

Sounds like the people who avoid fighting would also avoid coming here.

@Artifact

Maybe. They definitely come here less often, for sure. But coming and going instantly when you’re like us is just so easy. If you smell a single modicum of trouble stirring, you can just be gone in an instant, like you were never here. It’s easy to dodge conflict.
