[anonymous text]

[Some of you may recognize the anonymous text from the last time it showed up, back when there were hardly any worlds at all. To others, it may be new. Regardless of which happens to be the case, that is most certainly an anonymous post, when the moogles have sworn that it shouldn't even be possible to make an anonymous post.]

Hmph. So there are now even more of you here? I suppose there truly are no limits to how many he can draw in, only to leave to flounder. Stranger, or acquaintance...in the end, the result will still be the same.

Not that such efforts matter. No matter how many dreamers accumulate here, you cannot change what was laid out long ago.

I most humbly beg to differ. [Not humbly at all.]

What is it that was laid out, precisely?

[revenancenpcs]

That's none of your concern.

[defrostedpride]

I beg to differ. At the very least, what is and is not my concern is at my discretion, not that of nameless interlocutors.

[revenancenpcs]

Or so you believe.

[defrostedpride]

No, that is the very definition of 'my concern'! That it is mine, which is to say, not yours!! In addition to not understanding the nature of communication, do you also not understand the nature of common speech?!!

[revenancenpcs]

Allow me to spell things out then, as you seem to not understand the situation. The dreamers called here are pawns at best, and it is not required that pawns know the shape of the battlefield.

[defrostedpride]

Even pawns have to know which direction is foreward - not that that's relevant, because LIFE IS NOT A CHESS GAME!! [No matter how much he not infrequently wishes otherwise. It's a particular kind of aggravating to have to explain a fact he hates.] It would be much easier if it were and people weren't capable of suddenly careening off in all directions or for that matter setting the board on fire, but THE WORLD IS NOT EASY! ARE YOU A CHILD?!!!

[revenancenpcs]

I am well aware of the nature of the world.

AAAAAAARGH!!!! [The communicator is shut off. If it were a door, it would have been slammed, possibly knocking over a small vase.]
