Has anyone seen any sign of those Grues or black dandelion puffs or whatever you want to call them or anything they've possessed at all today?

I haven't seen any sign of them since Monday...

Sure. Friends.

If we're going to be friends, then you can call me Sam.

[shiromadoushi]

Bakura. Welcome down the rabbit hole, Sam. Or at least to the viewing room to it. Things haven't gone completely Wonderland yet.

[wordsgate]

Hah! I'm looking forward to seeing how croquet gets played with flamingos.

[shiromadoushi]

You take a shortcut and use plastic ones and hollow balls.

[wordsgate]

Hmmm, that might not be a bad idea! Although I'd still need a lawn. I live in an apartment and I don't think Mom would appreciate me taking up the living room with something like that.

[shiromadoushi]

Can always use the green on campus. No one would even notice there.

[wordsgate]

PERFECT.

I could even use it as an excuse to meet people at school!

[shiromadoushi]

You a student there already?

[wordsgate]

Yeah, I'm in college. I won't say what year or school, just to be safe.

[shiromadoushi]

As if there's more than one college around here. I'm going to guess freshman or sophomore, if you don't know many people yet.

[wordsgate]

Hey! I was trying to be sneaky! Besides, who says I don't know many people? Maybe I just want to know more people.

[shiromadoushi]

Sophomore, then. Juniors are set in their social groups and seniors are too busy to care.

[[Someone enjoyed people watching while he hung around his parents' classrooms]]

[wordsgate]

[Geez, this kid is more tricky than he is!]

Fine, fine, I'm a sophomore. But I hope that I'll always be up to meeting new people.

Also you're lucky that I feel pretty secure here.

Best part? I didn't cheat :D

[shiromadoushi]

If you are, you aren't working hard enough on your senior classes!

I think all of us on here will be working together soon enough anyway. Doesn't make too much sense to be so paranoid about things that don't matter yet.

lol I'm just going to take that as a sign that I'm playing him correctly!

[wordsgate]

Wow, you sound like my mother! "Stop spending so much time chasing girls! Finish your homework!"

No, you're probably right. I guess some of the people that responded the other day made me anxious.

[shiromadoushi]

"You'll never pass my class if you don't get your work in on time."

You had the worst timing for that, it's no wonder. Just don't be stupid, and you should be fine.

[wordsgate]

Oh thank God my mother isn't a teacher, I'd never hear the end of it. Are you quoting your own mother?

I'll try not to be stupid. No promises.

[shiromadoushi]

Yeah.

She used to work at the college. Dad too.

[wordsgate]

Oh? That's neat. Are they retired now?

[shiromadoushi]

Something like that.

[wordsgate]

[WELP. He did promise to try not to be stupid, so he's definitely not prying into that.]

I see. My mother works as an accountant for a power company.

[shiromadoushi]

[[Good idea, that]]

Does she nag you to make sure the lights are off when you're not using them?

[wordsgate]

All. The. Time. She also complains about me having my phone charger plugged in when I'm not charging my phone.

She can be a little uptight.

[shiromadoushi]

At least she means well.

[wordsgate]

That's true. I know she just wants everything to be perfect.
