[OOC quirkless translation:]

So this "time compression" thing yanks me out of the middle of something important, plops me down on a planet full of humans in another universe, and gives me no way to go back.
And then I'm conscripted into this military school because the locals can't handle freaks and I don't have any better options.
Thanks a lot for that life, why don't you suck my bulge while you're at it.
So whatever, I guess this is my introduction??
Sollux Captor, troll, 6 sweeps.
Who cares.
Who else is even here who knows me anywfalkjehgw;;

OK there's one accounted for, Feferi just crashed into me ehehe.
If you want to talk to her I guess she can reply to stuff here too?
Yeah.
Otherwise I just want to know what trolls are here and the rest of you can do whatever, I don't care.

(OOC: If you don't want to see Sollux's text quirk, please tell me here. Also, since Feferi (terribubblykoi) will be tagging here and there too, you can see her quirk explained and opt out of it over here.)

[ Feferi hasn't stopped glubbing excitedly since she latched onto her favorite nerd in the entirety of paradox space. She presses her lips against his cheek in a distinctly fishy kiss, and then lets go of him just so she can sit down right next to him. ]

Glub glub glub, heeey, you're here!

[ And not blind or half blind or anything. Weird, but she's okay with that. ]

[f8tal]

Heeeeeeeey!
A8out time some of you guys showed up!
It's 8een awhile, 8ut I dou8t you remem8er that.
Having fun with Peixes over there?

[And alive, oh man! That is a thing. Not that he knows to worry, per se. Having Feferi here with him has lightened Sollux's mood though, even if it did make typing the rest of his post distinctly more difficult. The glubbing he's gotten used to by now.]

[The corners of his mouth tug up at the kiss to his cheek, then with the post submitted and her slipping to sit by his side, he turns to look at her properly.]

Yeah, no shit. Jutht thinthe earlier. What about you, how long have you been around?

[onthelii2p]

don't act liike you're 2o exciited, iit ha2n't been long enough from my poiint of viiew.
and yeah ii gue22, what do you care about iit.

[f8tal]

Callous words, Captor!
You should 8e careful or else you'll hurt my delic8te feelings.
I don't care! Only curious, is all~.

[terribubblykoi]

Long enough to realize this place is totally crazy. So just yesterday.

[ Even sitting, she seems intent on bouncing in place with all that pent up energy. ]

There's so much to see and do and so many humans to talk to! Even if it's really a pain, my sylladex broke on the trip over or something.

[ She lifts a small bag at her side and it sounds quite full of all sorts of random things when she shakes it. ]

And these humans are so primitive. The silly motherglubbers don't even use normal technology. They're really backwards here!

[terribubblykoi]

Sounds like someone is a big fat cerulean jellyfis)(!

[thorny]

Somehow I have the sneaking suspicion that 'do as you like' comes with a number of hidden caveats. Hopefully no one will be so unfortunate as to trip over them in their hurry to explain away this situation.

[onthelii2p]

liike ii owe you anythiing 2erket lea2t of all two your 2o called feeliing2.
iif you want me two be niicer then try not talkiing two me.
ii know you're here now, that'2 all ii care about even iif ii wii2h you weren't.

[onthelii2p]

Not much longer than me, then. Yourth too, though? I thought it wath just mine.

[He spares her bag a glance. He doesn't have much of anything with him, just his laptop, which still sits on his legs.]

Don't even get me thtarted on the technology. They really expect me to get by with jutht thith thing? I could put together a better thythtem in my thleep, if I had the partth for it. Do you think they even have beeth here?

[onthelii2p]

one) don't be a 2hiitpanned iidiiot.
two) don't wa2te my tiime.
though both more or le22 amount two the 2ame thiing iin the end.

[elementofloyalty]

i totally had problems with typing when i started too. you have hooves or something else

also the s key is between a and d that might help

[terribubblykoi]

)(---EY! I've seen text like t)(is B-EFOR-E!
You're one of t)(em, aren't you?
OUR )(umans, I mean!

[thorny]

Ah, and here I'd been planning on staging the most inane diatribe that I could muster up in response to this post. You've completely obliterated my cunningly crafted opening, leaving me completely without a witty retort.

Whatever shall I do now? Conforming to your standards of useful is simply too difficult for the poor unwashed masses.

[onthelii2p]

wow good job telliing me 2hiit ii don't already know, al2o my hoove2 are on the floor 2marta22.
2iince apparently you're two 2tupiid two gather the obviiou2 fact2 let me 2tate them for you: ii'm doiing thii2 ON PURPO2E.
iit'2 called a typiing quiirk ok.

[thorny]

If by 'our' you mean a member of a particularly unfortunate session of Sburb rather than an alien's pet, you'd be correct. I suppose that my style of speech is rather distinctive.

[terribubblykoi]

)(e )(as prongs like anybody else.
)(e just )(as the cutest little typing quirk, du)(!
Isn't it adorabubble?

[elementofloyalty]

oh well smarter than you then

[elementofloyalty]

okay this is getting weird

also what are prongs is that another word for fingers or hands also i guess you're doing that on purpose too

[onthelii2p]

try droppiing the faux-wiitty banter for 2tarter2, ii2 there even a poiint hiidden iin all that babble becau2e ii'm not 2eeiing iit.

[terribubblykoi]

Yea)(, obviously!
Glub glub, )(ey!
It's not like you can judge, mister all-lowercase-and-no-punctuation!

[thorny]

Faux witty? You wound me. This is only the most genuine of wit and sarcasm, lovingly crafted specifically for this encounter.

As to the point swaddled carefully in hand-knit cynicism, I suppose that I'm giving you a return greeting and a warning that this universe will likely metaphorically punch you in the mouth on a regular basis even after the initial kidnapping is finished.

[onthelii2p]

yeah riight, tell me that when you can beat openiing up port2 for tran2tiime memo2.
or me22agiing acro22 uniiver2e2.
or adaptiing the code for the game that even made that uniiver2e iin the fiir2t place.

[terribubblykoi]

Yea)(! 38)
It's awesome getting a c)(ance to talk wit)( you finally!
I'm Feferi Peixes, btw, abdicated -Empress to be.
