♈ Aradia: Finally get around to showing your face. [video]

[psych0p0mps]

[The video feed opens on an alien teenager who some of you may never have seen before, dressed all in red and grinning widely. Most notably, though, she is wearing two eye patches, one over each eye. She gets right down to business.]

Is this working? Yes? It beeped, so I think so. Okay.

People of the internet, I have a quick question. [She points to the eyepatches.] On a scale of one to ten, how silly do these look?

[To benefit of the doubt, or not to benefit of the doubt...]

You're sure?

[musclebeast]

D --> Yes
D --> Of course I'm sure, I'm an e%tremely sure person
D --> I don't e%actly know why you would question how sure I am about whether or not this conversation is about how elegant and striking you are as a person despite how uncouth your status is
D --> The e%tent to which your e%quisiteness reaches is something wholly separate from my opinion on the matter

[psych0p0mps]

... Equius. Can you actually hear what you are saying.

[NORMAL PEOPLE SAVE THAT KIND OF WORD CHOICE FOR WHEN THEY'RE REDFLIRTING OKAY. and caste is so far from being a thing that ever mattered, she can't even ...

just ...

sighhh]

[musclebeast]

D --> Of course not
D --> I am te%ting it to you

[psych0p0mps]

[hahaha and meanwhile she's having to parse all this from how the screen reader reads it - "I am T-E-percent-ting it to you", "E-percent-quisiteness" -

but when she does get it, she's just gonna FACEPALM x2 COMBO at the camera, with a low "uuuuugh."]

[musclebeast]

D --> What

[psych0p0mps]

Look, just - never mind. I don't want to do this right now.

[musclebeast]

D --> Fine
D --> I'll grant you that, but only because this doesn't at all make sense and has no point
D --> Where are you

[psych0p0mps]

What? Why?

[musclebeast]

D --> Because I asked you
D --> That's why
D --> Now answer

[psych0p0mps]

[Equius pls. If it weren't for the eyepatches she would be giving you a Look right about now. Like one of those "are you out of your gourd" Looks.]

Uh, no.

[musclebeast]

[He is out of his gourd. He is so out of his gourd. But then- when isn't he?]

D --> Yes
D --> Tell me

[psych0p0mps]

Equius, if I don't want to talk to you, what makes you think I would want you to come over?

[musclebeast]

D -->
D --> You don't want to talk to me

[psych0p0mps]

[Welp cat's out of the bag now... although really she was hinting at it the whole time. Might as well be honest.]

No, not really.

... At least not right now.

[fff stupid niceness]

[musclebeast]

[Equius being dense isn't exactly new.]

D --> Why
D --> Don't answer that
D --> Fine

[Disconnect.]
