responsibility is the morning spinning it's own illusion


the InspiroBot meme


Pretty simple: go ask InspiroBot for an 'inspirational' quote or several and then use it to make threads happen. It's like A Softer World but possibly with even more existential dread and false smiling.

Yes, of course, but that's no excuse for the punishment you're inflicting on your lungs.

1. BECOME AN ENEMY OF THE STATE. HIDE YOUR TESTICLES.

2. If you join a cult, you might one day become a corpse.

3. KEEP CLOWNING AND STAY ESSENTIAL

4. IT IS TIME HUMAN BEINGS START TO BELIEVE IN SLUTFINITY

5. Remember that losing a limb can be not as bad as it sounds

((6. Or you can generate your own if you like! I forgot to save the images, oops.))

oh, yes, experience with both

[They hadn't even been connected thoughts... Just two suggestions that had come out sounding like the world's weirdest motivational poster.]

well, i had mine removed actually, but those who prefer not to do that can simply hide them instead

you know, putting vertical bars in your texts | makes them read a bit like poetry | which i find very charming

i have been called that! i've been called many things. :) do you approve of supervillains but not of the word?

superheroes really don't tend towards that sort of thing, do they? well, i've heard that one or two in the bat's nest may be exceptions but i suppose that happens when you collect enough children

if this is an attempt to get me to write you poetry | it'd go something like

Fatal error | Call to undefined function
there has been a critical error in this connection
retry | abort | fail

both as well | nothing like the catch-all term that means only you break the law with superpowers | but not what laws or why | tell me about yourself?

why is there a bat kidnapping children and why are they a superhero

this is exactly what i'm talking about btw
raggedy_doll: (OH MY GOODNESS)

[personal profile] raggedy_doll 2021-08-22 08:51 pm (UTC)(link)
i would never say no to poetry written by someone so charming

ooh. it sounds like poetry written by a robot! i like it. especially the part where aborting and failing don't seem to be options. in my experience failing is usually an option.

and superheroes break the law as well but they get so frowny when you bring that up!

i steal things, though i have committed the occasional murder. fair's fair, they were usually trying to kill me first, or someone else. i'm triple-jointed, after years of extensive surgeries to replace the joints i was born with, which were unfortunately lacking. named after my father, who was not a nice man at all, and i took my supervillain name from him as well, though i rather prefer to think of that as theft these days. i like music and painting and good food and have six monkeys at home. they're little darlings.

batman! he is the night or the dark knight or something ridiculous like that. he likes to try to terrorize gotham city into being good. has had multiple young sidekicks named robin though i suppose they might not have been kidnapped per se. he does seem to replace them often. i hear the latest is more stabby than most.

charming are you sure

i find you very interesting (/▿\ )

the dead have unlimited attempts | i no longer permanently fail anything

they do | they understand the law is not serviceable but they dont want to change it | the best (not many) are misled

haha stealing a name from your enemies is the best way to get one

ill come by | see your monkeys | if you dont mind | assess the cybersecurity of your lair | all that good stuff

hmmm doesnt sound like it works: all fear will do is teach the sly not to get caught and the desperate to fight to the death
raggedy_doll: was it the butterfly thing? i never know what's going on. (what did i say?)

[personal profile] raggedy_doll 2021-08-25 10:57 am (UTC)(link)
well i'm charmed!

ooh. is that a little embarrassed face? is it called a kaomoji? i googled it! 。◕‿◕。

are you dead, then? i thought that you were only called ghost and you were only incorporeal with technology, but more fool i for assuming!

i don't think they can understand how to change a law if they can't do it via punching it, the dears

i would certainly recommend it! i like it better than the one he gave me, even if they were both his name first, is that strange?

i'm sure my monkeys would love to meet you. and my cybersecurity is almost certainly terrible, how can i repay you?

that does seem to be about how things are going, yes!

if you can google thats 50% of your tech help heh | but yes it is | thats cute

the doctors favor that version of reality as well

agree

i dont think its strange | your 'real name' is your supervillain name correct

no payment needed | you didnt ask for it :]

when can I come
raggedy_doll: (i'm ever so nice)

[personal profile] raggedy_doll 2021-08-25 11:25 pm (UTC)(link)
50% really? really-really? i am a monster with simple google searches, darling... once i have the right terms (。•̀ᴗ-)✧

well, now i simply have to discard it

'real' is such a strange and bendy concept, i'm glad you put it in scare quotes. i do prefer ragdoll, i admit. or doll if you like.

i don't always think to ask for many things i find that i enjoy, but i will take something so nice for free if you like

whenever you like. can you find me? please do!

gotta watch you ✧( ु•⌄• )◞◟( •⌄• ू )✧ for good reasons

heh | dont know many noncis who trust doctors much too | odd coincidence

Doll is fine | see you soon


Ghost was slightly awkward with the texting, even, but gave it an A+ effort, and then turned their attention to tracing Doll's location. It wasn't the easiest thing they'd ever done, but it was by no means a challenge, either. Within about fifteen minutes, they'd come back into phase just outside Doll's room, intangibly peeking in to verify.

"Hi."
raggedy_doll: and your blatantly obvious self-delusion (completely sincerely sort of believe you)

[personal profile] raggedy_doll 2021-09-05 08:31 pm (UTC)(link)
that's darling! are they high fiving or holding hands?

i have relied on doctors many, many times over. i did survive but it was quite irresponsible of them to be frank.

goody ♥


Ghost did give the texting A+ effort, and awkward or not Doll was indeed charmed by them. And if few others found them charming, what did that matter? People could be so strange about these things.

Doll got to feeding her monkeys while waiting for Ghost to find her, and when they peeked in it was a couple curious and excited monkeys who noticed first! Though Ghost's greeting was also a good indicator, and Doll perked up.

"Hello, Ghost! Hello!" She was maskless at the moment, just kinda hanging out, and smiled at them. "Don't mind my monkeys, they get excited about new faces, the dears. I see reports of your intangibility have not been exaggerated!"
