Now that I can have everyone's attention, a little good news.

Since Jules and I both needed the occasional break from the Bronze Age, I'm proud to announce Liminal Intranet is now up and running. Even I'm not good enough to hook it up to proper Internet, as that would involve punching dimensional holes that are probably beyond our reach, but it should at least be a boon to Project Infopool.

Servers are in my rooms, so they won't be going anywhere even if I do. You'll have to provide your own computers, though.

Any and all games with multi-player modes are on the table. Even some that need to be jury-rigged to do it.

[thornsofmalkav]

I've got a couple of console games with multiplayer too, although some of them, like Katamari Damacy, are only multiplayer if you come over to play. I, uh, basically took all her personal possessions because she was dead dead and normal dead people don't need video games.

[professorwolf]

I don't blame you. I might have done the same thing. Now I want to come over and see what you have. Am I a terrible friend if I love you for your video game collection?

[thornsofmalkav]

Not at all, dude. Really, I'm the horrible friend after what Selene and I did to you in Achaia... even if you really did deserve it.

[professorwolf]

[And there goes the humor. Whoops.]

No-- no, Thorne. Don't feel badly. It was the only way an infiltrator could possibly have stopped me. I-- only wish you'd found me sooner.

[He killed... and ate... a lot of people.]

... yeah. I mean. I know. [There's a slight pause, then.] I don't know if it counts because I was Selene and to her you were a monster... but. Shit. I've never killed someone before. Not a person. Not directly.

It feels weird.

Sorry. I probably shouldn't get weird on you about this. You were the guy I killed, after all.

No protection, so it's a good thing she has it :P

[professorwolf]

I was a monster, no questions about it. A moon-mad werewolf only has one thing on his mind, and that's killing. No, two things-- killing and eating.

But I do understand. The only time I've ever killed anyone is... well, like that. Moon-mad. And indirectly causing someone to be killed, but while that leaves one feeling guilty, it isn't the same thing as having your own hands or teeth in it.

Re: No protection, so it's a good thing she has it :P

[thornsofmalkav]

I guess it's like vampires and frenzying, sort of.

Yeah. I mean, it wasn't even her first time killing a monster. She was a goddess after all. I just...

I dunno. I'm glad you're okay now, though. I mean, if you are okay.

[professorwolf]

I'm alive, and I'll get better. Not through any fault of yours. Dying... I can really only half remember it, to be honest. My memory isn't perfect from when I'm like that. It's the nightmare of what came before it that's the worst part.

[thornsofmalkav]

Ooof. Yeah, I get that.
