exsilium | A short list without an App to list it (Audio & Text)

[the feed clicks to audio, and suddenly there's a very loud enthusiastic greeting.]

Hellooooo Exsilium!

Nailed it.

[the greeting ends as soon as its last syllable of "um" drops, and the post switches to text.]

Great! Everyone heard that, right? Now that the whole pleasantries thing is out of the way (as well as our B-Movie undead run-for-your-life quasi-fiasco), there are some suggestions that I must present to make us all the more comfortable. Please kindly lend your ears and open your hearts! The Initiative is welcome to take such suggestions, so I hope you've your ears open. I've condensed these to a brief number! Onward!

(1) A party every Saturday featuring the round Italian pastry covered in a copious variety of cured meats. I also propose that we're offered a number of stylish festive hats for the occasion. Top hats are in season, and nothing is complete without some kind of festive hat to show our enthusiasm.

(2) While I hardly mean to offend the technology offered to us by our captors, we're left regrettably with a single App that does a single boring thing and absolutely no games! I would settle for Birds of the Angry Emotional Feelings, or perhaps the Saga of Crushed Candy! Anything mind-numbing to pass the time. Even some Exsilium produced space-cat forum!

As a side note, anything of interest and practical use may also be warranted for App exploration. Perhaps something for these "missions" I've heard so much about. Or lists. Yes, lots and lots of Apps for lists. Perhaps a App of lists that lists all the App lists.

(3) Also include the Internet On-Line World in the suggestion above.

(4) I suspect it vital that we all learn how to walk on the moon. We're in luck! I've heard of what's appropriately dubbed "the moon walk." It's a series of difficult steps in Midgardian dance that cause the illusion that you're walking forward, yet you're walking back! Quite helpful in the scheme of things while we take residence.

This is a very small list for those of us who have been captured from our homes and drafted into an unknown future-war that none of us even had suspect of happening! All in favor of boosting morale.

Oh, yes.

I see that some of you are quite aware of the handle of "Loki." If you could give me any such knowledge of your experiences with this fellow I would be eternally grateful. Eternally grateful ... IN SPACE!

ii've made 2ome game2.
but ii'd need two convert them two work on your "2tarkphone."
for a priice.

It means you have terms, don't you? Got it. State your price. We can conduct an exciting banter resulting our final decisions on this network.

P.S. Interesting use of short of hand.

not 2horthand2.
typiing quiirk. completely uniique two me.

a2 for my priice.
ii want your 2tarkphone.

Typing quirk, of course.

There was some sort of Midgardian tale of this. There was a comb, and ... ah, what is it? A watch? Well, either way, it was the tale of irony that I would rather not be a part of.

I may not be able to get you this StarkPhone (as I am quite fond of it, dwarves are picky and they're quit snotty about parting with their gold—it was a feat on my part that included a lot of running!), but another, well, that's a different story entirely.

that'll work.
ii ju2t want one.
doe2n't have two be your2.
and maybe iif ii'm feeliing niice ii'll make you an addiitiional game.

[hm, typing quirks and colors.]

Then I'll have to see what I can do, of course. If you're feeling generous and all that. There are others who offered their services, but I'm sure yours are far more up to par.

naturally.
ii 2eriiou2ly doubt any of the other2 program game2 for fun and profiit.

I'm sure there may be other methods of persuasion.

Mister Sollux it says, is that correct, or is it a clever network handle?

iit'2 correct.
2ollux captor.

Loki of Asgard, well-met and all such extended pleasantries. I look forward to lay a fine eye on what you can accomplish.

Lokii of a2gard.
you know.
the other lokii ii've met wa2 a real bulgehead.
you don't 2eem a2 bad.

It seems a name that everyone is familiar. Across many realms. Dimensions. Space. Whoosh. All of that.

Most Lokis seem none to pleasant.

Which is the one you know of?

he wa2 here.
2tarted me22iing wiith our 2hiity liittle ciity for no rea2on, 2ummoniing giiant mon2ter2 two jack 2hiit up.
again for no rea2on.
kiind of an a22hole.

[this recollection is the same as what he's read.]

Aye, kind of. That's Other-Loki, and that sounds unsurprising. He did quite penchant for the inconvenience.

I suspect you were there for this.

ii've been here longer than anyone el2e you've 2poken two iin thii2 po2t.

How long would that be?

Over a human year.

Quite the amount of time to pass. That was before the Transports were of the moon.

well yeah duh.
thii2 only happened liike a month ago.

So the move is still fresh enough to relay the reaction of the impact. Curious, everyone seemed tense.

very.
a lot of people are 2tiill pii22ed off at the iiniiatiive.
they're al2o fuckiing moron2.

[he has to translate the quirk for a bit before he gets it. he can read it flawlessly now, but it does bring up some questions. of course those are left better for a later time.]

Harsh words. I would like to hear why you think that of them.

who.
the iiniiatiive or the fuckiing moron2.

I'm generally open to both. I would hear of these morons.
