*Pulls out a magnifying glass, my eye appearing three times its previous size behind the lens*
As a matter of fact, I did some digging! And as it turns out, I didn't have to dig very far.

@Webmaster

So you can nip the problem in the bud then, no problemo.

<Snipped quote by Webmaster>

Do you not get tricked often?

<Snipped quote by Melodious>

If I may, why are you shunned?

@Zeal

Treason.

<Snipped quote by Melodious>

*Points*
Exactly! An inside job.

@Webmaster

Something like that, surely you know who’d be behind it. At least an idea.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Melodious>

Usually people like it, and they watch it. But I think someone's going behind my back.

@Webmaster

And sabotaging you?

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Melodious>

I think I'm halfway there already.
*Dips my face underwater for a few seconds*
The truth is, I'm losing contracts.

@Webmaster

What dictates that, exactly?

<Snipped quote by Melodious>

Oh! Do you not play your own music?

@Zeal

I do. On that front, I'm out of a job at the moment. being shunned by society makes it hard to sell music and perform.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Melodious>

Well—
*Grins sheepishly*
It’s a priority thing.

@Webmaster

You can shift those around, you know.
*Unfolds my arms from behind my head*
Look, I'm not gonna make you do anything. Talking about stuff is just not as much of a burden on others as you think. I'd have been tossed in the loony bin as a child if I didn't have Max to listen to me complain.

<Snipped quote by Webmaster>

*takes a drink while closing my eyes and swallows, my eyes still closed*
…This is water.

<Snipped quote by Melodious>

*my eyes still closed as I turned to you*
Really what is that then?

@Zeal

Right now, I write music for an artist.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Melodious>

I guess so, it just feels so mean to people who have real problems for me to complain, y’know! I’ve got it so good, but not everybody else does.

@Webmaster

Being in a position to accept the reality that the grim reaper may come knocking in mere months doesn’t sound so good to me.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Melodious>

Me? Vent? Nah, I couldn't burden anyone like that. It wouldn't be fair.

@Webmaster

It’s crazy easy to listen. Not like you’re passing your problems off on anyone.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Melodious>

Maybe for me, but I want you two to relax! I’ll figure things out. Somehow.

@Webmaster

*Turns my head and looks at you silently with a stare that says “really?”*
If you think your problems would weigh on my shoulders any more than my problems already do, you’re kidding yourself. Do you vent? To anyone?

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Melodious>

Hey, we're here to relax, right? No point complaining about my problems.
*Flutter kicks as I swim backwards*

@Webmaster

Decompressing is a form if relaxing, y’know.
*Folds my arms behind my head*
You’re talking to the master of venting.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Melodious>

More like, er, fans?

@Webmaster

*Raises an eyebrow in intrigue*
Oh?
