[pathologise]

time loops
shapeshifting
walking dead
dragons
death at every route

that's the bullshit everyone thinks is the first thing you should know
not 'hi, sorry you're stuck here like the rest of us'
"at least there's alcohol" isn't a comfort
getting caught by magic is an absolute way to die so we're fucked
if the beacons just break why are we trying to find them?
why are they apparently believable?
we're helping the people that kidnapped us
has anyone said no? because i don't want to help them and fall into more magic and death

( she is very drunk and not at all coping with everything she's been told since getting on the train )

Mm. Better get used to it, I doubt the answers to your questions are going to make you feel any better.

[pathologise]

no.

( what she means is 'no i don't want to get used to it but using words when you're drunk? )

[rehandle]

No

[pathologise]

there is nothing about this to get used to

[rehandle]

Suit yourself. Be constantly bamboozled instead

Ouch

I realise you're distressed, but nobody's going to be able to tell you anything you want to hear. This is a frequently uncomfortable situation even for the initiated.

[pathologise]

"initiated"
you mean magic people?

[rehandle]

Magic people, multiverse-travellers, those used to battling the dead. Take your pick, add a couple more, mix and match

[pathologise]

except you people are "initiated"
i've purposely stayed out of magic bullshit
so comfort doesn't mean much

[rehandle]

'you people'
Nice

I'm not trying to comfort you. I'm saying it's a bad situation, you're correct, congratulations

[pathologise]

bite me
there was a list

bad situations don't need info dumps
not a good handle
but everyone likes to

[rehandle]

So you decided to take to the closest thing we have to the internet and put in a complaint

21st century Earth, by any chance?

[pathologise]

i got very drunk
and everyone needs to do better

[rehandle]

When you've slept it off, try drafting an improvement plan
I'm sure it'll be just as welcome

[pathologise]

🖕🏻
since i doubt you're sincere
even if a 'how to kindly break the shit' sounds necessary

[rehandle]

I wonder why I'm not moved to sincerity
