No, I mean our bigger than a semi truck snake of a boss wouldn't want us ta do anythin' for free for the blanks. Against the rules.

Re: [Reception]

[ghost_busty.insanejournal.com]

Oh. Ohhh. Uh-oh. ...That's a big snake.

Re: [Reception]

[followstheahou.insanejournal.com]

And very scary. [There are threats of being eaten.]

Re: [Reception]

[ghost_busty.insanejournal.com]

Um. I'll be careful then. I don't want him to get eaten! What a waste of a chin!

Re: [Reception]

[followstheahou.insanejournal.com]

...

[Okay, she has to laugh.]

Re: [Reception]

[ghost_busty.insanejournal.com]

So has your snakeboss actually eaten any of you? 'Cause if I was a giant snake I'd want to eat people all the time.

Re: [Reception]

[followstheahou.insanejournal.com]

Ah, well, he's...actually a very reasonable guy. Really.

[...]

Well... [.___.] He did eat one.

Re: [Reception]

[ghost_busty.insanejournal.com]

...Oh! F-for good? Swallowed and everything?

Re: [Reception]

[followstheahou.insanejournal.com]

I...don't know.

He hasn't come back.

Re: [Reception]

[ghost_busty.insanejournal.com]

Oh...

I'm sorry.

Re: [Reception]

[followstheahou.insanejournal.com]

...I didn't really know him. He was kind of strange.

But yeah. We...kind of have that threat. So even the nicest of us have ta follow orders.

Re: [Reception]

[ghost_busty.insanejournal.com]

Makes sense, but still... Be careful, okay? You're too nice to become snake chow.

[There is a startled look for a moment before she smiles, just a bit of sadness there.] Don't worry. There might have been a time there was a risk of that, but...

[Her hand drifts to fiddle with a string hidden under her shirt.] There's someone I made a promise ta that I wouldn't let myself die. So even if I can't always be as nice as I want, I won't break that promise with him. Especially if I can help him in this place.

*small smile*

The special someone you talked about earlier?

Re: [Reception]

[followstheahou.insanejournal.com]

[Nods.]

My most precious person.

Re: [Reception]

[ghost_busty.insanejournal.com]

Then you should fight as hard as you can! That's all we can do for the people we care about in the end, right?

Re: [Reception]

[followstheahou.insanejournal.com]

[Nods.] That's right.

Re: [Reception]

[ghost_busty.insanejournal.com]

It's probably why most of us are here, I bet.

Re: [Reception]

[followstheahou.insanejournal.com]

...that's a nice way ta think about it.

I guess a wish would probably involve that most precious person, after all.

Re: [Reception]

[ghost_busty.insanejournal.com]

Yeah. I mean, what's the point of getting whatever you want if you have to be alone to do it? You'd think even the meanest guy would want someone to gloat over.

Re: [Reception]

[followstheahou.insanejournal.com]

[Giggles.] Well, that's a rather harsh way ta put it.

I would just think no one would want ta be alone ever.

Re: [Reception]

[ghost_busty.insanejournal.com]

I guess some people want to be alone sometimes...but only the type of alone where you can go bother someone later, I think.

Re: [Reception]

[followstheahou.insanejournal.com]

That's what I meant. It's fine to be by yourself.

But being alone without anyone...that's the sort of alone I meant.

Re: [Reception]

[ghost_busty.insanejournal.com]

*nods, shuddering a bit*

I can't even imagine what that would be like. I wouldn't want to...

Re: [Reception]

[followstheahou.insanejournal.com]

...neither can I. Just bein' mostly was horrible.
