[PUBLIC] Day 42

[dorkypantsuit]

I'll assume no one made my obligatory bring a buddy announcement while I wasn't here, so this is that warning.


Didya miss me?

[LABOR CHANNEL]

Mandatory check-in, whether I know you or not.

If anybody's been slacking tell me and I'll work out a proper punishment.

LABOUR CHANNEL

[criticallyfucked]

Mmmmm.

No.

[No he didn't miss you, or no he won't bring a buddy?

The answer is yes.]

LABOR channel

[dorkypantsuit]

Thanks for checking in Foster, I know I can always count on your cooperation!

[spaghettimonster]

Hey! You're back!

Everybody's been working hard. We had a lot of guests last week.

[dorkypantsuit]

Everybody?

[He seriously doubts that for some reason.]

Well I'm sure you were working hard, at least.

More guests than usual?

[prazerbutterfly]

Who are you again?

[He says in both a teasing manner and because he has no idea but the 'announcement' tone seems important.]

[dorkypantsuit]

Forgotten already!

[He starts, feigning distress.]

How could you?

[dontpokethat]

Hey! Of course we did.

[Some of them, anyway. Ginko knows he did.]

[dorkypantsuit]

[The mock cheriness in his voice fades to be replaced with genuine happiness.]

Hey. Where are you?

labor channel

[pullingamiko]

Here! Jeez, I was wonderin' if we were just gonna be left to do whatever forever.

A father can never leave his children for long.

At least I think that's how it works. That is how it works, right?

surprise, it's action

[hurtcomfort]

[ Cole doesn't even bother replying to the radio! Instead, like fifteen or so minutes after Psi makes his post, there's Cole, in person, just suddenly RIGHT BEHIND PSI. ]

I'm here.

[ there we go! he did the thing! ]

oh cole...

[dorkypantsuit]

[Goosebumps break out across his skin before he jumps at the greeting, turning around to face Cole as red and blue spark around his eyes. His expression is threatening, until he recognizes just who has snuck up behind him.]

Cole.

[He sighs, closing his eyes to regain his composure.]

Please knock before coming in here in the future.

[worldlyafflictions]

[Thank goodness this can just be done by radio because Shima can't take anymore bugs in his life right now...]

Heeey boss, nice ta hear from ya... Shima Renzou, checking in~

So what's the bring a buddy thing?

[dorkypantsuit]

The bring a buddy thing is a way for people to not die on strange new worlds thing. It's about safety in numbers! And it works.

[periphrasing]

Where the heck have YOU been?

[dorkypantsuit]

Home. For longer than I meant apparently.

[everybodypanic]

Who are you supposed to be?

[dorkypantsuit]

I'm supposed to be the Psionic.

What about you?

[osteothropy]

Hey.

Guess who's got four thumbs and also four forearms.

[dorkypantsuit]

Me.

Don't tell me you grew extra too.

I'm late hhhh

[puddingemote]

Did you take a buddy where you went, Psi-aniki?

[dorkypantsuit]

[Fortunately he doesn't have the 'respond' button pressed on the radio when he laughs at the question.]

I didn't bring anyone, but I had a buddy with me the entire time I was there.

[It feels like he should say something more, but. That's technically an answer, right?]

Do you usually bring buddies home with you?

IT'S LABOR TIME

[soft_focus]

...Neh, can my partner be someone who is new..? [Because that's not vague. But anyway.]

UM!!! I'm here!!

I got to look like you do in space too!! Did Ginko show you yet, he looked like you too!!

[Fortunately, that answer is...Yes. She's radio'd quite late.]

[dorkytracksuit]

Reira.

[Good, she's alright.]

He did show me. Just how many people look like trolls right now?

[He can answer her buddy question in a minute.]

how the fuck did so much time pass-

[pipers_son]

The ache has been unbearable, Psii~.

But, really, good ta have ya back. I'm sure we all need ta be reminded of yer system~.

shrug emoji \ =) /

[dorkypantsuit]

I know you did.

If anyone needs constant supervision it's you.
