just gonna say it here so i dont have to respond to every person talking about having their physical changes being noticed. people've never NOT noticed my arm and facial scar, so ive found if someones bugging me about them, these tend to work:

1. tell them its none of their fucking business.
2. stare at them in the eye with a neutral facial expression until they get uncomfortable and leave.
3. wear concealing clothes if you dont wanna bother with the first 2.

i guess you can also try to explain, but i promise thatll get old very fast.

anyway, planning to check the roads outside the city after school and see if they need painting.
anyone got tips on fighting potentially invisible monsters?
or how to paint very fast.

dude

[ NOAH... ]

[redarm]

what.

[youraffection]

i know ur tryin 2 help and everything but i fee like a few hundred ppl going "piss off" 2 everyone isnt really what were going 4

[redarm]

okay but what ARE we going for then?

[youraffection]

shouldnt we b telling them the truth about this place??
weve had 2 keep it under wraps 4 so long!
part of me used 2 think it was this secret that we had 2 protect ppl from but im not sure if we can really save anyone at this point!

[redarm]

[....]

ok thats a really noble sentiment
but im not explaining all of retrospec to every arsehole that bugs me about my scar on the way to class.
id never make it to class that way.

[openhanded]

I honestly expected this to end with 'I always tell them the same thing: how dare you speak to me'

By the way. I'm staying after school a little longer these next few days to paint the campus, so let me know if you need help.

[youraffection]

yea no
sry i wasnt trying 2 say its ur responsibility or anything
whatever happened 2 that retrospec 101 thing that was going around
cant we give ppl that?

[redarm]

is that a line people actually use?

[What's a meme........]

you mean with school work or the stuff outside town?

[redarm]

its fine, i get it what you mean.

oh yeah that doc?
dont remember where it is, but thatd be handy to have on hand.
unless it makes us seem like some weird religious cult.

[youraffection]

tbh thats probably the least weird thing they could assume about us

I hope it's okay if I do a branch in the thread here both of you feel free to reply to it

[deathboss]

See I like that idea too, but then I realized if I showed a death spirit to my mother she would probably freak out before I was grounded forever.

Man what was the quote form the movie about humans being dangerous creatures when they are scared and imagine if everyone suddenly found out aliens were real or that magic is real?

[deathboss]

Do you think there would be invisible monsters out there? Maybe going with a few people might help.

[redarm]

yeah true

have you tried telling anyone yet?

threadjack away, my friend!

[youraffection]

yeah i get u
maybe its bc ive been seeing this bs for over a year now but like
they can die 2?? cant they?
when i was off in whateverland trying not 2 be murdered by an undead witch thing i was fucking terrified but
like
this shit is popping up around them all the time and they have had no clue for a long time
isnt that scarier?

[redarm]

a death spirit?
i get what you mean though
im not sold on the idea of telling my dad about all this.

wasnt that z-men or something? that movie series with all the mutants?

[youraffection]

well i dont look like much other than a regular teenage dude so i dont get a lot of questions

[ And, you know. Not really talking to his parents much these days. ]

guess that means i shouldnt really tell ppl how 2 deal with this huh

[redarm]

there were monsters out there before everything turned white
so i dont see why they wouldnt still be out there.

[NEGLECTING TO RESPOND TO THAT LAST BIT. He knows it's true, but ugh...people??]

And now for glitches

[deathboss]

Yℰah to bℰ fair I'm still nℰw. And I didn't ℰvℰn think of that. If my parℰnts wℰrℰ to diℰ bℰcausℰ of this I'd nℰvℰr bℰ ablℰ to forgivℰ mysℰlf...

ℰspℰcially sincℰ I havℰ mℰmoriℰs of a kinda dickish dad from my othℰr lifℰ no offℰncℰ to othℰr dad but hℰ soundℰd likℰ an assholℰ. I likℰ this dad much bℰttℰr.

Undℰad witch sounds tℰrrifying to bℰ honℰst...

[redarm]

tch, maybe not but its fine
you have some good points.

[your opinion is valued yosuke!!!]

not EVERYONE can tell people to piss off.
i guess

[deathboss]

Yℰah it's likℰ...an othℰr sℰlf to my...othℰr sℰlf. Likℰ thℰ prℰvious mℰ had othℰr sℰlvℰs hℰ could call up to hℰlp him fight.

Maybℰ that was it. Or maybℰ that onℰ wℰrℰ aliℰns wℰrℰ hiddℰn in thℰ world and guys in fancy suits stopping thℰm.

Thℰn again thℰrℰ's a lot of 'shit hiddℰn to othℰrs' in books and moviℰs so you know. Could bℰ a million things.

[deathboss]

Yeah than definately go out with others. Maybe a few people who have powers to stop them or something?

[Embrace the friendship.]

I could try to come with tonight once I finish painting my neighborhood blue.

[redarm]

[what fancy 'e's he thinks to himself...]

oh. you mean kinda like a persona?

yeah i remember that movie! i fucking loved it.
it is a pretty common theme though. like how all superheroes have secret identities

[redarm]

you want to come along?
even though we dont know each other?

[deathboss]

[Oh!]

Oh. Yℰah that, actually...how do you know 'bout ℰm?

It is...ℰvℰn in vidℰo gamℰs I'vℰ sℰℰn it around a lot
