[Pierce shows up on the network, still with red hair, and looking kind of... frustrated. He is observing the camera with a frown, head propped up on his hands which are... gloved?]

So, I would like to submit myself in the running for most obnoxious echo ever.

[He, very gingerly, pulls off a glove, picking up random objects around his desk as he keeps talking.]

By the way, I don’t really plan on making posts on here all the time. This is just super shitty timing. Also, if I can get any tips on how to break this to parents, that would be awesome. There’s only so long I can pretend I’m high enough to think I need gloves that my folks will believe.

Oh, and one more thing-- a-ha. [Pierce holds up an apple, and from the tips of his fingers spread a sheen of gold, enveloping the apple within moments.]

I figured out what I hate Greek mythology.

[He sighs, pulling the glove back on and frowning down at his creation.] ...Anybody want a golden apple? [Any reference to the fairest of them all or giant wooden horses will totally be lost on him.]

A tad worse than the golden touch, wouldn't you say?

[goldenguitar]

Yeah. A bit.

Precisely why you should read up on these stories. If you really do have some tie to them, better to be informed than taken by surprise by a pulse later on.

Re: Voice.

[goldenguitar]

Yeah, ok.

[flamberge]

[That sounds convincing.]

Next time we meet, I'll lend you several books on the matter.

Re: Voice.

[goldenguitar]

Um... yeah. Ok. [That doesn't mean he has to read them!]
