can you see me

[playdolls]

They've all suddenly decided to notice I'm not human.

This stopped months ago, and it is extremely annoying.

The next child who pulls my tail is losing an eye.

Also let me know if you need help finding your pets. That was also extremely irritating. Are you planning to feed my cats for me Retrospec?

I didn't think so. I'm going to leave an entire litter box in your break room, I promise.

[ Treats, jesus Christ that spends a weird chill down her spine, even if she knows that she finds herself thinking just as dismissively about humans, sometimes. ]

That's quite the trait! So in the long term it won't end up changing your diet, or does that mean it'll become purely carnivorous?

[playdolls]

I'm not a queen ant. I don't think it matters.

[ What that means for them in terms of their relationship to humans, they're not actually all that certain. And not being certain annoys them. ]

[matchbreaker]

Huh.

Any other people in the same boat as you?

(also did that ideology play into why you picked a fight with me back in November?)

[erythristic]

i could always amputate that tail, if it's such a bother.

[playdolls]

Other chimera ants? No, not that I've seen.

And I didn't pick a fight. I just wanted to see how strong you were.

[playdolls]

It's not the first time I've threatened them with cat poop.

[playdolls]

Why my tail and not this kid's fingers? Sounds suspiciously biased.

[maskreant]

have you met some already?

[lostapprentice]

you're one of those people who calls them "sleepers," aren't you.

[erythristic]

a child is a child. you're an adult. i expect you to be a touch more classy.

[matchbreaker]

That's a little bit of a weird distinction but ok makes sense I guess.

[sanephiroth]

Has it ever helped?

[playdolls]

Absolutely not.

[ Classy is.... not a word Pitou would use to describe themselves with... ]

[playdolls]

Clearly not, they have the ability to apparently construct and deconstruct large portions of our physical reality. What am I supposed to compete with that?

[playdolls]

I want to be strong too. I know it's in there, I just haven't managed ot wake it all the way up yet. But it's starting.

[playdolls]

Oh is that the euphemism people are using... To be fair, a lot of the Retrospec users are boring nobodies too.

[playdolls]

A couple. They call me cute. It makes me want to rip their heads off and eat their brains.

[erythristic]

then hide your tail. they'll forget again soon enough.

Jamie Doh Hi Pitou! I'm purple too.
I made sure Kitty and all her stuff were the first things I painted, but... it really was annoying, right? And it was kind of gross to have just the one brush to paint both cat litter and, like, food and everything.

[maskreant]

sorry to hear that.

what's stopping you from doing that though?

[sanephiroth]

Wait for the day we finally meet them in person, I suppose.

Are your cats all right now?

[matchbreaker]

I can't deny that the strength I've gotten has been useful to me but okay? Hope it works out for you!

As long as you aren't maiming people?

Having an invisible hill really is a hassle for finding a missing cat.

[playdolls]

Nothing, really. Besides some human civility I've been indoctrinated with.

[playdolls]

They are! I was able to pick up on their aura and get back inside.

[playdolls]

Absolutely not.
