I am no longer having a good time in the least.

[abracadavers]

Yes, the "not welcome" is a very insistent neon sign.

Let's you and I go somewhere, then.

[geminids]

not not welcome just

[abracadavers]

It's fine, message received.

[geminids]

can you quit takin me at my word. please.

[abracadavers]

This is important to you, why would I put that at risk since I'm a walking one.

[geminids]

tryin to keep y'all out of the risk zone. just doin a shit job of it.

[abracadavers]

You two are being dickheads, yes, but I didn't think I'd get an invite anyway. Did I want one? Yes, because I'd love to see these motherfuckers in the flesh. But go off and do your brother...horse bonding thing.

I can control myself, by the way. Whether I should have to is another question entirely.

hemmings.

[geminids]

what do i do

hemmings.

[arietids]

[...] It'll get smoothed over. Say you're sorry. Maybe acknowledge that this shit is a little [...] sensitive.

I'm actually wondering if we should bring them with us - after laying down some ground rules about not responding to any shit behavior, obviously. Might rile everyone up a bit more but it also shows them we're doing just fine and don't care about their shit.

hemmings.

[geminids]

so say the same shit i always do n hope it ain't too old a story to keep repeating yet. got it.

but d'you reckon it'll make em even more pissed off about what we got if they actually get a look at our o [...] the others?

[geminids]

[...] i'm sorry. this shit got me all backwards. i know you can keep it in, i was bein a dickhead. like you said.

Hemmings

[arietids]

Good job.

Hemmings

[geminids]

go away

[abracadavers]

Baby, I wasn't being a petty smartass when I said you two could go on your brother horse adventure, if that's what you need.

[geminids]

that makes it sound fun. ain't gonna be fun.

[osmotheque]

I think there is a fundamental misunderstanding of motives. Starting trouble unduly is hardly becoming.

Briar would be Perhaps we should. I am open to discussion.

[abracadavers]

I think it's less a misunderstanding than a lack of trust. Though I suppose seriously plotting the overthrow of these very people probably doesn't help us.

Horse racing is quite the thing to these colonizer toffs on this side of the Atlantic. Want to get dressed up and be on our best behaviour?

[osmotheque]

Taking such actions becomes counterintuitive in light of a clear and present goal to the event. The purpose of the visit would be moot if one were to engage in [...] adverse recreational behavior at this time. We are hardly stupid.

I do always wish to get dressed up.

[abracadavers]

We're strategists. Damn good ones.

You can wear a fascinator and then we can burn it in front of them later.

[osmotheque]

It is relatively simple not to smell like them for an afternoon. We would look impeccable and perhaps we would go shopping.

[abracadavers]

Right. But the arson too, yes? By them I meant the toffs. It's important to me to take every opportunity to offend and disrespect the English.

[osmotheque]

Oh, by them I had meant Hemmings. But, you are correct, I do suppose it would be be a better option if we were to select a different continent altogether.

[abracadavers]

So, fascinator?

[osmotheque]

How elaborate are you thinking?
