LE: "Good day to you, violetConfusion. Are you well?"
VC: yes, i am well
LE: "That is good to hear."
LE: "Anything particularly exciting occur recently?"
VC: i have recently come into possession of a copy of SBURB
VC: i didn't want to be the only one not to have a copy
LE: "Excellent, it seems another member has obtained a copy of SBURB as well."
LE: "The roster just keeps growing."
VC: do we have a headcount?
LE: "As of now, I can safely assure you that Ahmed, Finn, Frisk and Paul have all attained their own copies of SBURB."
LE: "And the both of us, of course."
LE: "There may be others, but as of now these are the only owners of the game that I can recall."
VC: very good
LE: "Seeing as you are essentially the equivalent of Zeus in regards to setting the law, I presume you will be stern with your server?"
VC: of course
VC: rules are what make the world work
VC: i won't bore you with another rules speech today
LE: "Indeed, rules are to laws as criminals are to theories."
LE: "Theories explain why rules work. Criminals, especially their actions, detail why rules work and are set in place."
VC: i'm happy at least one of you guys see the light
LE: "Hold on one moment, someone is contacting me from an anonymous chumhandle."
VC: alright
LE: "Alright, I am back. Apparently some John character decided to pretend he came from the future to talk to me."
VC: that's... odd
LE "He did give me some details about SBURB, however, if you would care to listen."
VC: please, go on
LE: "You have heard of the game's aspects that are akin to 'the Sims' correct?"
VC: i have
LE: "Apparently, we are to place some 'artefacts' that are presumably free that are necessary to enter an area known as the medium."
LE: "I am also informed that the game is much more akin to a role-playing game than it may appear to be at first."
VC: hmm
LE: "There is an alchemy system that involves merging attributes of multiple items into unique combinations. One of which John said included a portable, hands-free computer."
LE: "This one is a tad confusing, to be frank."
LE: "One important detail that should not be overlooked is prototyping of something called a 'kernel sprite.'"
LE: "It will be recieved from one of the various artefacts."
LE: "From what I gather, you can merge it with an item from your surroundings. This is necessary before alchemizing some pre-punched card, though he mentioned that out of nowhere."
LE: "If not performed, SBURB may fail to work properly, though how that occurs I am not certain."
VC: intriguing
LE: "Apparently, a primary candidate for prototyping would be something that has passed away, like a familiar or pet as the sprite will act as your guide throughout the journey."
VC: i see
LE: "Also, the game may have something to do with the apocolypse, but escaping to the medium will prevent our demise from occuring at the hands of whatever event SBURB has in store."
LE: "Trivial details, you know."
VC: oh
VC: uh, ok
LE: "There are also classes and aspects, but I shall refrain from mentioning them any farther."
LE: "Both because I hardly know much about them, and because I have probably droned on far to long about the game."
VC: this sounds... very in depth
LE: "That was precisely my reaction."
LE: "I am not sure quite how much we can trust of this character, though his mannerisms were nice and he did not seem to be of ill intent."
LE: "At the very least, I figure I aught to ask if you will act as the leader for our merry little band of adventurers?"
VC: i may
VC: i don't see who else would fill the position
LE: "Well obviously freskAbenet. She seems bold enough to tell people what the do."
VC: really, frisk?
VC: don't get me wrong, the kid is great, but she seems so... shy
LE: *displays sign with flashing SARCASM written on it
VC: don't get me wrong, the kid is great, but she seems so... shy
VC: oh, of course
VC: you got me
LE: "Text makes interpreting sarcasm difficult."
LE: "At least face to face, it is possible to enunciate and display a sarcastic tone."
VC: indeed
LE: "freskAbenet certainly is shy, though. I do not want to risk banter in an unintentionally offensive manner regarding her, however, so I shall leave it at that.
VC: of course, i meant no offence
LE: "Well, now seems like a good time to begin scouring the tangles of the internet for guides to SBURB."
LE: "I bid you adieu. Until we meet again."
VC: see you soon
LE: *walks out casually from the chatroom
