I—er—
*Turns my head to hide an involuntary smile*
Thanks Roland, Chickpea. You two have really helped me a lot.

@Nimda

*Grins*
Now that, I will accept.
*Nods*
You are welcome.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Valiance>

And thanks. For helping me, again. I continue to fall deeper into your debt.

@Nimda

Sure thing. But, stop calling it a debt. That's not how friendships work.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Valiance>

Not even remotely. But it has to latch onto these hosts before we go after them.

@Nimda

*Nods*
Then yes. Absolutely.

<Snipped quote by Valiance>

Then are you willing to help me when this problem decides to awaken?

@Nimda

You're wanting to let this thing wake up?

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Valiance>

Then you're not a stranger to things falling apart at the last moment, are you?

@Nimda

You could say that. Last moment or not.

<Snipped quote by Valiance>

How are you not angry about this? All of that effort, and you're just... steady?

@Nimda

<Snipped quote by Valiance>

I was led to believe it would be. This time.

@Nimda

Well, now we know. And we can better attack the threat next time.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Valiance>

You anticipated this? All of it?

@Nimda

Not specifics, no. But with a powerful entity like that? Would be hard to believe things would be so straightforward.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Valiance>

It's not about the—
*Pinches the bridge of my nose*
Okay, it is about the house. But the rest of this is my fault. I should have known there would be a catch.

@Nimda

I knew something would happen. You have nothing to apologize for.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Valiance>

...I'm sorry.

@Nimda

It’s not you. It’s the volume of traffic suddenly going through here.
