NIETZSCHE; DEAD PHILOSOPHERS' INBOX

[explosivecombat]

[TEXT; LOCKED TO doitrockapella]

The offer for conversation is always open, should you desire to take me up on it; I can't guarantee that I'll respond immediately, nor will it necessarily be the response you want, but I'll always respond in some way.

In the name of enlightened discourse.

[doitrockapella]

I'm not waking you up, am I?

[explosivecombat]

Your timing is good, actually; I'm currently making sure someone stays asleep, which isn't my idea of a thrilling pastime.

Something on your mind?

[doitrockapella]

A few things, actually. Are you having a good night, boredom aside?

[explosivecombat]

Reasonably so, and it's not as though I can't entertain myself besides. That said, I prefer talking to you.

I trust yours is going well, otherwise this would likely be going rather differently right now.

[doitrockapella]

It is. I'm still awake at this hour, obviously, but it's not for negative reasons.

...That said, I do owe you an apology. I had to leave in a hurry, and didn't have time to say goodbye before I went.

[doitrockapella]

I know I'm a little ahead of schedule as far as our usual time for this, but I'd rather not wait. Are you someplace safe?

And before you ask — yes, I'm concerned, there's a hurricane coming.

[explosivecombat]

As safe as possible, anyway, given that I'm back in Goldenrod.

I'll admit that I'm more interested than worried about whatever's coming, but that's probably not helping to alleviate the concern.

[doitrockapella]

...You've never seen a hurricane before, have you.

[explosivecombat]

Not at all.

[doitrockapella]

Lovely weather we're having, isn't it?

It's raining cats and cats out there.

[explosivecombat]

It may not be my alchemy in weather form, but it's vastly preferable to sharks, anyway.

[doitrockapella]

I'm not sure what it'd say about your alchemy, if it could be considered comparable to vaguely traumatized kittens falling from the sky.

[explosivecombat]

That's fair enough, isn't it.

...do they all look like that, then?

voicemail;

[doitrockapella]

Entschuldigung über die Sprachnachricht anstatt unserer üblichen, aber ich denke Diese Nachricht wurde im Amestrian geschickt?

[explosivecombat]

[LOCKE, WHAT IN THE WORLD]

Es war sicherlich, was-...oh.

[That last syllable sounds...more surprised than anything, really, because that's certainly new, isn't it.]

[doitrockapella]

"Oh", indeed.

My apologies about the lack of preamble, Nietzsche; I hope this isn't a bad time.

[explosivecombat]

Not at all, actually. I trust you've been well?

Since I didn't receive any sudden calls this weekend, I assume that either you didn't see that particular visitor you've been getting or he wasn't fresh from being arrested.

[doitrockapella]

What did one electric light bulb say to the other?

[explosivecombat]

...And a good evening to you as well, Locke.

Go on, I don't know.

[doitrockapella]

"I like you a whole watt."

Hello, Nietzsche.

[explosivecombat]

...I'm not particularly sure what I expected, but that was endearingly cute.

Just a good night for that sort of thing?

4/8, backdated because i can

[doitrockapella]

С Днем Рождения.

hell yes you can

[explosivecombat]

Consider it appreciated, Locke, and the image as well; believe me, I'd be doing something similar if my superior officer wouldn't immediately have some sort of conniption. (Granted, that doesn't often stop me from doing it anyway, and the day is still young.)

I trust today finds you well?

[doitrockapella]

Now I'm curious which one he finds so objectionable: the cupcake, the sparkler, or both.

I'm all right. Kant's latest greatest hit has been trying to convince me to let him submit one of his friends to a contest he saw on the Network, so that's been...interesting. But all in all, life's quiet and pleasant.

[explosivecombat]

Honestly, it's probably both, though the sparkler was what I was thinking of at the moment.

You know, I still think that if I'd been told years ago that I would come to tolerate this much quiet pleasantness, I would have thought whomever was telling me that was either out of their mind or simply didn't know me very well. But as it stands...I find that I can't complain for the time being.
