It Is My Regrettable Duty To Inform You That The Count Of Those Present On This Plane No Longer Includes The Following
Jake English
Feferi Peixes
Roxy Lalonde
Rose Lalonde
And Karkat Vantas

There Are Others Missing Also But I Havent Identified Them
Just That The Number Of Familiar Threads Are Fewer In Number
It Seems As Though Some Sort Of Mass Exodus Was Accomplished While We Slept Last Night
And We Are The Ones Left Behind In Its Aftermath

I Wonder If We Havent Offended Her In Some Way

whoa wait what
missing as in
like back home or

[glowsferatu]

As I Said No Longer Present On This Plane
That Theyve Returned Home Is The Safest Assumption

[hashrap]

huh
well shit
probably shouldnt have overslept

[glowsferatu]

I Couldnt Help It
Once You Reach A Certain Point The Body Demands Compensation
Perhaps I Shouldnt Have Slept At All

again

[,... he wasn't expecting this. wow, coincidences.]

[dupable]

all of them?
all at once????

text;

[glowsferatu]

It Wouldnt Be The First Time For Any Of Them
Except Jake I Suppose

[glowsferatu]

I Guess They Must Have But I Really Cant Be Sure
All That Im Aware Of Is The State I Found Our Space In When I Awoke

[soulbonder]

im sorry

[glowsferatu]

Its Nothing You Could Have Helped
Though Im Just Not Accustomed To Them Being So Closely Grouped Together
Usually A Loss This Heavy Would Occur Across Multiple Days
Maybe Weeks

[soulbonder]

i didnt know what else to type

you should cross your fingers

[dupable]

man...
rose really needs to stop leaving like this.

[glowsferatu]

I Could Have A Pair For Each Of Them Couldnt I

[glowsferatu]

Its Nothing She Has Any Control Over
This Only Ever Occurs As Lachesis Demands
And I Guess She Isnt Happy With Us For Whatever Reason

[soulbonder]

yes
it worked last time did it not

[dupable]

i know!
but it is still really frustrating.
she and dave are both really bad about it, and jade is already gone and i don't think she is coming back for some time at this rate.
i can't even think of anything they would have done for them to get sent home.

[glowsferatu]

Which One Was That
There Were A Lot Of Last Times And Many Of Them Have Been Met With Dubious Success

text;

[soulbonder]

feferi came back [kind of...]

[glowsferatu]

What If It Wasnt Them
Think About It You and I Have Been Here Longer Than Any Of the Others
Well Not Of Any Of The Others Currently Present At Least
And Hopefully For The Foreseeable Future
But What Im Trying To Say Is

What If Its Something Weve Done That Prolongs Our Sentencing Here

[dupable]

wait a minute...
you think the two of us are the ones she is angry at?

text;

[glowsferatu]

Partly
But She Lacked Any Memory Of Her Prior Visits
So It Isnt That She Came Back So Much As That She Arrived Once More Anew

text;

[soulbonder]

true

what about your other friends

[glowsferatu]

I Dont Think We Are Necessarily The Only Two
But Its An Idea With Some Potential
She Brings Those We Care For Into Our Lives But Then Whisks Them Away Again
Like A Predator Dangles The Bait Before Its Prey
What Else Could It Be If It Isnt Some Form Of Punishment

text;

[glowsferatu]

Sometimes They Return
Sometimes They Return In The Same Manner That Feferi Did
You Can Never Fully Tell Until Such A Thing Occurs And Youre Left To Determine What Youll Be Met With

[dupable]

well i don't know.
i don't think the two of us have done anything that would have really gotten her attention either.
i mean i definitely don't think i have at least.
