Well, most of it is stuff that's trickier for me to just flat out say...

So, do you have any questions?

[robopriest]

So, the monster. Is it coming?

[retellers]

It's not heading for us yet, no.

[ we still have two weeks left wow.... not that they know this icly, tiger doesn't know what a mg endgame looks like. ]

[robopriest]

Did it attack the previous times, or is this the first we've dealt with it?

[retellers]

It's hard to say... since it kind of sounds like the reports are from different cycles, going by the tone of all of them. And just going by the memories we get about them, they're just memories of a small part of all of them... it's hard to paint a clear picture of what exactly occurred in them all.

But at least one report flat out mentioned it, so we can say it appeared one other time.

[robopriest]

...

Well, that's nice of the monster to just leave us alone after it tried to attack at least once, huh.

[retellers]

I have no fucking idea. It's like, supposed to be attracted to nova, so maybe we just haven't collected enough yet?

[robopriest]

Can't believe we're doing the Tom and Jerry routine where we put a bunch of nova under a box propped up by a stick and say "pspspspspsps monster, come here, you big dolt".

[retellers]

... pspspspspsps?

[robopriest]

Like, what you do with a cat to get them to come to you. They like the sound.

[retellers]

[ ... ]

I guess I don't have a cat...

[robopriest]

Would you want to have one?

[retellers]

Don't know if I'd be very good with pets...

[robopriest]

Aw, how come? Its not hard to keep one.

[retellers]

I give the vibe of someone who would be a horrible pet mother. Too self-centered?

[robopriest]

Well, why not a cat, then? Cats are kind of self-centered, too.

[retellers]

You agreed so quickly on self-centered.

[ she sounds amused ]

[robopriest]

I call it when I see it, me being a black pot pointing out the kettle and all.

[is he really self-centered though (thinking emoji)]

[cheerbleed]

[ francy is free from mod account tagging ]

Are you self-centered?

francy is a free elf

[robopriest]

Aren't I? I'm biased towards the people and things I like, and will pursue my own self-interests...or something like that.

[cheerbleed]

You just described literally everyone.

But in the end, would you help everyone here or yourself?

[robopriest]

...

[A light smile.]

Perhaps more of the latter than the former.

[cheerbleed]

[ hm... ]

You know... if I was a participant, I probably wouldn't have hesitated the second I found out about the requirement.

[robopriest]

...You mean, you would murder to save the rest?

[cheerbleed]

More like I'm not sure I would trust anyone else to do it.
