just flooding this comm with idol boys

[lecturehall]

I'm sure others have tried it on here so forgive me for asking again but... is there a way to permanently discard what we've been sent?

I tried to throw away some clothes but they keep returning. There's also something that was fixed perfectly when it should have remained shattered. (Though that, at least, was an accident.)

[It wasn't an accident at all.]

It's no urgent matter [it really is] just something I'm curious about. I can't imagine being stuck with objects I can never be rid of.

Yeah well lucky for you, you don't have to imagine it, because you have to live it.

I only lost the items Retrospec gave me once, and that was because they were playing some prank and gave it to someone else for like a week. Other than that, nope. You're just gonna have to find a way to live with it. I've got one of mine locked away in a safe.

[ Which is a gross oversimplification of "it's being kept in deep freeze in the morgue at the police station", but this is much easier to say. ]

[lecturehall]

You're not a fan of metaphors, are you?

A safe isn't a bad idea. Though it'd be even better if I could hide it underneath my floor. I'd be worried about the temptation.

[frostythehitman]

I like metaphors perfectly fine, first off, and what you wrote wasn't even a metaphor anyway, so who's not a fan now?

"Temptation"? What did they send you, drugs?

[lecturehall]

No! It's just... nostalgic, I suppose. A type I don't need.

[frostythehitman]

It's nostalgic, so you tried to burn it?

[lecturehall]

What is with you all and burning? You can't burn anything inside city limits without a permit. I just tried to leave it in a dumpster a few blocks from where I live.

oh my god where did i get burning from, it's okay LET'S ROLL WITH IT

[frostythehitman]

Burning's a guaranteed way to get rid of something without leaving behind any evidence. Otherwise you just end up with it coming back to you like yours did. Too bad the cops like to interfere before it gets anywhere.

SHHH

[lecturehall]

It sounds like you're speaking from experience. Should I be worried?

[frostythehitman]

Only if you plan on burning your "gifts."

What is it, anyway? Maybe you can put it through a paper shredder or the garbage disposal.

[lecturehall]

Two outfits and a disc. I'm not sure either would do anything but break the paper shredder they were put through.

Plus, I've already tried breaking the disc. It's back together as if nothing happened.

[frostythehitman]

A disc? As in one of those old-school CDs?

Does anything even play those anymore?

[lecturehall]

Computers still have disc drives, you know.

[frostythehitman]

Yeah and my dad still has a walkman. It doesn't mean cassettes are something people still use.

[lecturehall]

You're right. I'll get in touch with Retrospec about it right away.

[frostythehitman]

What are you gonna do, ask for a refund?

[lecturehall]

Well, I was actually being sarcastic.

But now that you mention it...

[MAYBE HE WILL]

[frostythehitman]

Pfft, if you get it to work, tell me. I've got some crap I'd like to return myself.

[lecturehall]

Then I'll keep in touch.
