09:16 * ConfusionRift sees one of the armors requires Shakalaka parts. "Wait... I'm gonna see them again?! Yes!"

09:37 <Schism> Some days I feel like this.  It's not very healthy.  https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/571484744542453760/874586545364013066/unknown.png

09:42 <AppleDash> I don't get it

09:43 <Schism> Being able to turn a 'hello' into an acid-based attack is big mood.

09:44 <AppleDash> Ahh

09:47 *** Joins: Golden (uid250033@Pony-sd90bk.tooting.irccloud.com)

09:48 * Golden flops.

09:48 * Schism flumps.

09:48 * Schism tailwiggles, foxishly.

10:02 <Schism> "So, a group of 10-year-old fillies are, what, 2 dan?" "If yer lookin' for an explanation, yer gonna best go elsewhere.  These are just moves from a game." "What. game." "That one that weird changeling mare plays all the time.  She lets us take part; we're pretty good at it." "WHAT."

10:06 <Schism> "STOP dodging!" "Why?" "I was trained in the deepest hives!  You shouldn't be able to evade my strikes!" "But they're so slow!" "AUGH!"

10:08 <Golden> Uh

10:08 <Schism> Randomosity.  Nothing more.

10:09 <Schism> The idea of the CMC completely curbstomping Chrysalis in martial arts, though, makes me smile.

10:09 <Schism> Pre-cutie marks.

10:09 * ConfusionRift chuckles. It's that skit of "the big talk of being the best, then falls on the first instance". :P

10:10 <ConfusionRift> It's not Scoots or Applebloom, it's Sweetie. :P

10:11 <Schism> Scoots has aikido, Apple Bloom has karate, and Sweetie Belle has this stupid five-element monstrosity of a martial art.  X3

10:15 <ConfusionRift> SC: "So... do you need... help?" | SB: (puts the changeling in such a hold, not even their flexibility helps them move) "...huh? Hmm, nah, I think I'm good." | C: "...help..."

10:15 <Schism> "Okay.  Fine.  Weird training from weird mentor.  FINE.  OKAY FINE.  How do you see my strikes with your eyes closed?" "Oh.  She wanted us to learn how to detect magic.  I can taste when you're about to punch." "... taste." "Yup!  You're kinda like sour apples."

10:17 * ConfusionRift decides to give the game a break. He was getting kinda fed up.

10:18 <ConfusionRift> Tigrex cheats. (grumps)

10:19 <Golden> Stories 2, or Rise?

10:19 <Schism> "I'm not even going to question this at this point.  And you?  Do you hear it?" "Yeah, but, um..." "I don't even care anymore, what do I sound like?" "An untuned oboe."

10:21 <Schism> "..." "Kinda ... squeaky?" "Excuse you." "With a broken reed." "Excuse you." "You said you wanted to know!" "I didn't want to know that much!"

10:31 <ConfusionRift> Golden: Stories 2.

10:31 <Golden> Ah.

10:32 <Golden> I have a bit on my back log, and had to archive Stories 2

10:34 <ConfusionRift> Tigrex is the only monster I have seen (as far as I remember) that can do two attacks, one after the other. That means I can block one with head to head, but not the other. And it huuuurts.

10:34 <ConfusionRift> The attack power of Tigrex is ridiculous.

10:35 <ConfusionRift> And the "final" jump attack either wipes someone or they live with 1HP.

10:38 <ConfusionRift> I just wanna finish the game... but at the same time, kinda like looking for monsters. ._.

10:39 <ConfusionRift> Also, seems my memory is trash.

10:43 <Golden> Oh dear

10:44 <ConfusionRift> Okay, so it starts as Power, and then shifts to Speed. Okay... (sends a monster that uses Speed) We got this. (makes the rider use Technical) That should... wait- WHY DID I DO THAT?! (fails head to head) GUH! ...I meant to use Speed.

10:45 <Schism> Oh, this is really bad.  X3

10:46 <Schism> Rifty: So, everyone does time travel, and everyone does 'time of death' and so on, right?

10:47 * ConfusionRift tilts his head. "...huh?"

10:47 * Schism giggles. "So I'm coming up with a weird protagonist who sees the elasticity of people.

10:48 <Schism> And of course, tries to make them more elastic.

10:49 * Schism boops the ConfusionRift. "People tend to be pretty volatile, as it were. Like our lives are on rubber bands."

10:49 <ConfusionRift> So... they can somewhat determine how long one has to live? Or is it more of a quirk, and they can determine one's flex- aaaaah, that kind of protagonist. :P

10:50 <Schism> Okay, so it's a great amount of Steins;Gate -- still!

10:51 * ConfusionRift should come up with a "strange" character. Most of the ones he thinks are... about the same.

10:51 <Schism> Except INSTEAD of Steins;Gate, the goal is just to make sure that they remain as flexible as they can.  To give them as many choices as they can have!

10:51 <Schism> The idea of the story, of course, is that as time goes on, the main protagonist sees ... things start to ossify.  Become inflexible, become immutable.

10:54 <ConfusionRift> "It was bound to happen. Everything is set in STONE after all." | "Oh... you again. Sure know how to pop out of nowhere." | "It helps me get to places. Being late would be prudent of me. And of course, being timely... you're making me deviate again." | "Yep!" | (sighs)

10:55 <ConfusionRift> Not sure why... but was reminded of something from some time ago. Hmmm.

10:57 <Schism> "People make the same choices, but -- no matter what choice she makes, she never gets a good ending.  And everyone's choices seem to point her towards the worst, time and again."

10:58 * Schism considers.

11:00 <ConfusionRift> "You can try as you might, her path was already paved. You can carve others paths as you like, but they will all end in the exact same place. Back to the reality." | "...man, you sure know how to kill the vibe, huh." | "Sadly, part of my job."

11:01 <Schism> "Her path was already paved." "And so is mine, is that right?" "As far as you know." "I know nothing.  And I remind myself of that every day."

11:05 * Golden flops again.

11:05 <ConfusionRift> "You should get a girlfriend... or a wife... SOMEONE, maan." | "Do you perceive me as a person capable of finding a someone who could love them and cherish them?" | "...okay, maaaaybe I was a tad too optimistic. But you can always try. Right? That won't hurt ya." | "And them?" | "...well...you can always put it on the back burner." (sorta smiles) | "I will consider it."

11:12 <Golden> I feel lost.

11:12 <ConfusionRift> Hmmm?

11:13 <Golden> @_@

11:14 <ConfusionRift> This just random dialogue. Not much for context.

11:17 * ConfusionRift patpats Golden.

11:24 <Golden> Hm

11:28 <ConfusionRift> "You know what?! She will find her way in life! She WILL find happiness! She deserves as much, okay?! So screw you! (turns around, and trots off) And I will do my damnest to help her make it happen, without your sorry (bleep) pessimistic (bleep)! So, (bleep) you! And have a VERY NICE DAY!" | "...the expletives were entirely unnecessary."

11:51 * Dappled becomes a happy pony.

11:51 * Dappled got his 2ds back. Left it in rice for days and now it turns on andd works.

11:52 <ConfusionRift> Niiice.

11:53 * Dappled will probably put it on the shelf though once his new 3ds arrives. Even if it's not linked to my nintendo account, I can use it for my physical games till I'm ready to move stuff around.

22:38 <Schism> It's back-to-school week in the US.  It's also tax-free week, which our service does not support.  It's also ALSO 'hey, let's have everyone call in with student discounts week and escalate to supervisors to yell at managers when their coupon codes don't work' week.

22:39 <Schism> It's also LET'S HAVE FIFTY THOUSAND PEOPLE ALL LOOKING FOR SIZE 7 SHOES week, which is all great and wonderful because that means that we get all the people who can't understand that YES, an online warehouse CAN run out of stock.

22:39 <Schism> Add a goodly measure of dysphoria and you have MY BEST WEEK EVER.
