exsilium | 017 ♐ Audio: Huff and puff. Or maybe more stomp and snort.

[There's a kind of mechanical whining on the feed when it opens at first, as if from a smaller machine, a higher pitch whir and him which eventually silences, only to be replaced by a few taps and once again more whining. After a few moments there's a sound similar to a sigh though- seems to border on the more frustrated end. An adjustment- perhaps to the mic, and the small mechanical sound seems to have drawn closer to what's being spoken into, or visa versa.]

I'm finding it to be exceptionally distasteful- the lack of culture here at times. The lack of something with tradition and true exceptional craft. I admit though, that I've been aloof to the the network lately, so maybe I haven't noticed some kind of creative stirring in this usually excremental pool of iniquitous and sassy degenerates.

[A pause, more mechanical whining, a breath.]

So I guess I'll give it a chance- though some I am aware of, minimal, so extremely so- of a few examples- but those who I'm not aware of- those that harbor some kind of artistic worth in this jambled mess of space and time riff raffs and stolen hoi polloi. To you I command to make known to me what types of artistic sway you or your worlds have. Preferably something held with extensive regard.

And don't start anything, let's keep this professional. I don't want to be made angry.

When you're a certain age, you get to do a certain thing. In my world, if a family's really traditional, people carve themselves a bracelet or anklet to remind them of their family before they go get married and start a new family. There's old legends and myths that're carved for luck, protection, harvest, too. It gives you status, I guess.

"Their pump"? You mean... their heart?

D --> Many human traditions seem to be centered around forming a family and this marriage event
D --> It's interesting when things aren't
D --> Though I understand the importance of e%ercising your genetic rights and forwarding your race
D --> I find it silly that something like that would give you much status though
D --> Status should be inherent
D --> But
D --> I guess the potential of gaining a better social standing is
D --> Nice
D --> Sort of
D --> Yet still f001ish

D --> Yes, I do

Why is it foolish to you? Wouldn't you like being rewarded for something you put a lot of work into?

Never heard it referred to like that before. Either way, there's a lot of people who aren't really the sharing type. Are you?

D --> Not in the same manner
D --> Status isn't something to be earned, not where I'm from
D --> But again
D --> I appreciate that hopeful way of thinking
D --> I can be
D --> Depends on what e%actly

So you can't earn your way out of your status? I dunno. Sounds frustrating, to me.

What's all the whirring about? Sounds like some sort of machine.

D --> If you do something so silly you're most likely culled
D --> It's order
D --> Oh
D --> I'm working on something
D --> It's important

Culled?

How's it important?

D --> Yes, e%terminated
D --> It's something necessary, making it important
D --> It's a hand

Did someone lose theirs?

D --> Yes
D --> Someone did

Is that someone you?

D --> Yes

Whatever happened must've been either really cool or really dumb.

D --> It was c001
D --> If you enjoy e%plosions
D --> I do
D --> I very much enjoy when things get dangerous and violent

You made an explosion? On purpose?

D --> No
D --> Yes, I did
D --> Though it was unfortunate that it damaged me so
D --> I'm e%tremely adept with robiti% though, constructing a new hand from myself won't be a problem

That's pretty amazing.

D --> Yes, e%ceedingly amazing
D --> But for someone as e%quisite as myself, I'm merely living up to e%pectations

I said amazing, not awe-inspiring.
Don't get a big head.
It's not very 'exquisite'.

D --> I disagree with you

I guess we're agreeing to disagree.

D --> I'll agree that we are agreeing to disagree
