Hello! First of all, Maurice would like me to tell you all that he's locking anyone who messes about with putting dangerous things in the mailbox to send to him which don't belong for at least a week (please don't send him dangerous things!!!!) and would like me to remind you it's for things you got sent only, please! Secondly, we've managed to fix one of the colors entirely, although one is still on the fritz. We'll keep working on it! By the way, is anyone going to do secret Santa games? I always like those, although I've only ever done them with other employees. Last year I got Ronnie. He's soooo hard to shop for but I think he liked the cane I got him? And Mr. Baroque got me! I'm not really sure he knows how to shop for girls. Or people who don't only want weapons. But the thought is what counts!

nope
one day i had both arms like normal
and the next i had a fully healed stump

but come on what's the big deal
they're my body parts i can do what i want with them
and it's not like they don't deserve it

[devilsadvocato]

Yeah they deserve what's coming to them!
A whole truck load of it.

It's not exactly healthy or safe to carry around body parts or light mail boxes on fire regularly. I just would hate for you to get caught in the middle of something even if it's to flip Retrospec the bird.
You set the wrong part of Retrospec property on fire next time and it could set the neighbors on fire.
Or your favorite shoes or something.

[frostythehitman]

i wasn't setting any of their property on fire!
i was just setting my own arm on fire while ON their property
there's a difference
besides it's a free country
i can set my own arm on fire if i damn well want to

[DO YOU HEAR YOURSELF TALKING? Is there a friendly way to force a guy to go to therapy against his will? Better google that. Stage an intervention if this keeps up.]

I'm no expert but I'm pretty sure you can still get in trouble for burning something on another person's lawn. Especially if it's a human body part.
Bucky think about your family.
Sure they don't know about Retrospec right now but what if they do later?
What if your sister sees that photo?

[frostythehitman]

[ WHOA, did you just use his sister against him?? LOW BLOW, FOGGY. LOW BLOW. ]

yeah well retrospec's already forced her to see my arm fall straight off my shoulder right in front of her haven't they
so who cares if she sees the photo
it doesn't make a difference
they've already traumatized her

[devilsadvocato]

Retrospec is full of shit and deserves to pay for what they did to you.
Your actions still have consequences even if they are in an effort to stick it the man.
I'm worried you're going to get hurt in the process or do something you'll seriously regret.
That's why I'm telling you to think about your family.

[frostythehitman]

what do you want me to do
sit back and just let them ruin my life?

[devilsadvocato]

No.
But you have to choose your battles wisely.
If you get seriously injured or arrested because someone off the app catches you doing something crazy it will be a waste.
I don't want you to be stuck in the hospital or juvie the day we finally get a shot at these assholes.

[frostythehitman]

you don't even know what our battles are LIKE
you've only had this app for like five minutes
what makes you think you know what to do any better than i do

[ He really shouldn't be mouthing off to his English teacher/family friend like this, but, well. There's a lot of things he shouldn't do. ]

[devilsadvocato]

All right then.
Inform me.
What are the battles like?

[frostythehitman]

half the people on the app disappearing overnight
having to fight hordes of monsters and go into pocket dimensions to save them bc retrospec won't fix their own stupid mistake themselves
random fog attacks trying to murder you but you can't tell if it's real or not
getting framed for murder
and that's just since august

[ well, except for getting framed for murder, that was a bit earlier, BUT LOOK, IT'S STILL ALL PART OF SUMMER, OKAY ]

[devilsadvocato]

That's some crazy shit and super dangerous, and you're right I am not an expert on how to deal with that.
Doesn't change the fact that as your teacher and friend it's my business to care about you and your future.

[frostythehitman]

if you cared about my future you'd know I'M not the problem here!
retrospec's the one ruining it!

[devilsadvocato]

Oh believe me if I had a direct line to Retrospec I'd be making their lives very difficult. This little conversation is nothing compared to what I want to say to them.

[frostythehitman]

well that's all well and good but why does it mean you have to make my life difficult too
like they're not doing it enough for me already

[devilsadvocato]

I'm just trying to look out for you. You might not like what I have to say but you know that's what this is.
