Yeah well the phase is bucket of bolts. Not dolts. If you're going to insult me don't do it by abusing a phrase.
...It's called "wordplay," Lio. And I "abuse" the "phase" because it's not meant to be an insult to you. Unless you're into that sort of thing... In which case, I can't help you. My inclinations lie elsewhere, I'm afraid. I'm a deviant, not a pervert, you pervert. Learn the difference! Because semantics are my friend!
If either of us is a pervert it's you. You perverse everything you get your hands on. I follow the rules, to the best of my abilities.
What hands? What are these hands of which you speak? Are you trying to pervert the Equestrian language with your slang!? U_U
Better to try and to fail than never to have tried at all. You do know that not everyone here is a pony. Plenty of people have hands here.
So, can I get away with accusing you of abusing a phrase, or is there going to be a double standard to contend with? And how was I supposed to know without being explicitly informed? I didn't want to make an assumption, since that risks turning those involved into donkeys, and not everyone is a fan of that even if they're okay with being another kind of equine.
"This is the one you spoke of?" Yeah. What do you think of her? "She interests me. She seems more intelligent than an average Terran." I noticed. She's definitely got a way with words.
I'm pretty sure, not 100% Mind you, that Guinan was the one who manipulated that phrase and I just copied her. Kind of like the Truth is in the Eye of the Beholder one. Also I mentioned at Avoiding Spamville that not everyone here is a pony. You can't blame me if you didn't pay attention. Alice and Ridley, Cresent or Nikkou as she's going by here, is not human. She's ....hey CP whats the fancy "A" word that Akemi replaced Eternal with.
"Some form of Eternal? Magic is not my area of expertise." I've never heard of Akemi, so I can't say for sure what we're dealing with. "Very well. Standard first-contact procedure?" Should be fine. I'm here if you need me.
("Seems" being the operative word, right? ) I know not this Guinan. You dare cast blame on an unassociated entity!? Yeah, it was you mentioning that to me. I was busy mining magical nose goblins at the time. It's your fault for not realizing that such a thing would happen. She called them Aeternalae. And I moved on from that ages ago. I knew you were slow, but not even mentally present? You have a strange way of showing that I matter to you at all. It's almost like... how I treat you! O_O I'm sure having that in common with me will have you thrilled. I suppose not. More like constipated, maybe...? I guess that's what happens when you're not lax enough in how you express yourself.
"So she is not an Eternal?" I guess not. "Do you feel as though there is something going on here that we are not privy to?" It kinda seems that way.
There's a lot you don't know and may never know. Crescent, I know you moved on but I thought you were still technically one of them even if you weren't a part of the main group. I mean you still claim to be a part of the Sisterhood.
"Testing, testing, one, two, three. Have I made contact on the italics frequency? I'm not interrupting anything private, am I?" :O Aren't we technically anything we've ever been? The experiences stay with us, helping to define our present selves, however small of an influence it might be. Well, barring amnesia, Alzheimer's, brain damage or convenient memory selection protocals. The last time I claimed that I was a part of the Sisterhood was years ago, and even then the organization had more or less become nonexistent. I know you're an old fuddy-duddy, but get with the times, man. XD
"Apologies. You are new and do not yet understand the system." I've got about a half dozen folks hanging around the forum with me. You've already met me. I'm Ridley; Omega wizard, beard-growing aficionado, and general a-hole. "You can tell us apart by our speech patterns. I am Queen Allysana Vex'ori Graa Armiista, of the planet Armiista." Σ Hi there! I'm Cassia Altair! I'm from Alternia! "I'm Princess Detriis Vexori Stel't'mar Armiista, also of Armiista." "I'm Matriarch, the AI avatar of the Armiistaan starship Matriarch" -Woof.*- *I'm Pirate Dog. I'm a dog. I wear a pirate hat.
I feared it was like that. The part of my brain that handles multiple identities was fried back when I tried to handle around two dozen people with multiple identities/personalities, many of them with more than three of themselves in some form or another. So, Ridley, only things that are in the shape of the letter A can be dropped into you? What an odd existence, but not uncommon. Is it lower or uppercase?
Pretty much. That and the only constant with Crescent is change. I can't count how many user names she went through at MSF. Nekid Nikkou is the one I remember most because most of the time she still runs around naked.
