[Admittedly he was a little skeptical of this artificial recuperacoon, but after a few days the idea that he could get some sleep really tempts him. Like, really. It gets worse every day until he finally can't take it anymore and risks it. Unfortunately, Equius is a huge fuckup it goes as badly as he thought it might and does nothing but amplify the horrific nightmares that he usually gets when he tries sleeping, to the point that he starts panicking and thrashing about in his sleep. In the midst of all of this he accidentally ingests some of the sopor within the recuperacoon, though for now the freaking out midsleep thing is his main problem.]

[But later, a little while after that's all sorted out, he shows up on video. His hair isn't done so it's messy as hell and even obscuring his eyes because of the length, he has no cape, no rings, no scarf...literally the ampora version of "just dragged himself out of bed". Despite showing up on video however, he doesn't actually say anything. In fact it's like he doesn't even notice, because he's typing up text. With each keystroke, you can hear a little tap.]

[Well this'll be interesting when he's sober, she supposes?]

There was a battle, a very long time ago, and each side blames the other for it. They eventually made a board game out of it, it's a very famous strategy game actually but... ah, well it doesn't really matter to you does it?

[caligulas_aquarium]

oh
yeah
thatll do it alright
but who won
and if one side won why is the other side still around to hate them
because generally when the alternian empire wins theres nothing left afterwards
so i guess that is where the line is drawn between your trolls and us

[ima_something]

No one knows who won. You could say neither side really did anyway [they do, or at least Death did, and she's got Death's memory.. ish.] A lot of things happened, and it all got very confused very quickly.

Well that's efficient I suppose, and back then Trolls and Dwarves would be perfectly happy wiping each other out, and tried too several times. I guess they just moved past that. It's a fairly useless way to go about things.

[caligulas_aquarium]

yes!
i kind of think that right now
which is weird because if you had asked me a few hours ago i would have thought thats stupid and youre stupid moving past things is impossible
but
for some reason i just stopped caring about that
and now i totally agree
and dont care

[ima_something]

... What changed your mind?

[caligulas_aquarium]

i dont know
it just did a little bit after i woke up

[ima_something]

... Alright.

Have you taken anything? [it would fit, trolls on the Disc took narcotics often enough. Granted they were made out of stone, and it was different for them, but all the same.]

[caligulas_aquarium]

uh
not intentionally

[ima_something]

... If you were a troll from home I'd tell you to go sit in a cold room for awhile but I don't think that would help. [she sighed.] Do you need any help?
