Public Channel - Night 158

[dorkypantsuit]

Right, is anyone else's 'new friend' huge?

That confusion aside, please remember if you are going to be exploring unknown worlds to do so with a buddy. And no, your newfound animal companion does not count.

Labor crew, mandatory check in. Find me before I find you. That is a threat, not a suggestion.

[He laughs.]

Hello!

[espigeon]

Oh well. Good to hear from you again anyway!

How big a buddy are you talking? Hinawa's is an elephant, it's crazy!

[dorkypantsuit]

Um... She's a whale.

Hello!

[A female voice, quieter as it's further away.]

[espigeon]

Oh wow!

[Julien's voice is kinda blotted out because Julie got right up against the radio and is chattering.]

Hello!! That's so cool! What kind of whale? Can you fly? I could fly when I was a fish but I never tried a whale! Julien let's fly around I want to see!

[dorkypantsuit]

Um..

Killer, as in, I'm just killer.

[She says it like it's supposed to be a joke. And then she laughs. Classy.]

And yeah, she's flying. In answer to the other question.

[espigeon]

Oooh, you're a harlequin dolphin from the land of the dead! I love it.

[Julie is easy to please.]

Yikes. So if you're inside a building she's gotta be like on the roof?

[dorkypantsuit]

[She makes a high pitch laughing sound, amused by the compliment.]

Well I tried leaving her outside.

Didn't work.

Yeah, it's sort of a pain.

Being apart's just wrong.

[espigeon]

Aaaah, yeah, that really hurts. There's kinda two of me and Julie needs to be close to one of them, but it doesn't matter which one. Thankfully. I fly too fast for her to keep up.

Only if you're racing, jeez! You don't have to go at scouting speed all the time!

I like being fast!

[dorkypantsuit]

Yeah... Well I guess I don't really need to go inside places...

I was hoping she could just be something smaller, but I guess that's out of the question...

[espigeon]

Mm. Well, at this stop people are used to this, ish? I haven't seen any killer whales but there's some big big dæmons, and all the public buildings have huge doors.

[dorkypantsuit]

Yeah... I've seen a lot of weird things since joining the carnival, but this is kind of up there.

You're just embarrassed.

[espigeon]

It happened back home... well, I'm familiar with the concept of getting split into two bodies, more or less.

He means it happened to me. Us. Singular-pronoun-including-me-and-him.

Totally different thing than dæmons, really though.
