[ well, that's quite the mental update. while ishmael isn't reeling from the download's sappy effects, she is in the mood to yap and gossip -- which is typically unlike her at all. and so, while they're all still waiting for the download to finish, she's got this to ask on their shared network. ]

Looks like this is going to take a while. And I know that most of us here were haunted by certain dreams a while back, me included. It's something I've already gone through back home so I'm not too bothered with it now, but I'm going to go ahead and ask anyway.

What are some of your happier memories?

That's probably easier said than done, though. You don't even have to think too far back and just share whatever made you happy since coming here. It's corny, sure, but we could definitely need some cheering up after all that on top of this horribly hot weather.

Of course, if you're too shy to share them to everyone in the class, I get it. I know I am. You can just tell me privately if you trust me that much, or you don't have to say anything at all and just read or react to everyone's contributions instead. Also if anyone's gonna come here to say shit like "Oh I'm not gonna share anything :/" then do us all a favor and not waste our time. Thanks. 👍

[ ish is too embarrassed to share hers right now, if anyone's wondering 🧍‍♂️ of course, feel free to threadjack if needed. happy yapping!! ]

[Oh man... The pause. He's really taking his time with this, huh? What's it going to be then, a sincere suggestion? An attempt at being insulting? A little bit of both? Dearka waits for the answer with keen anticipation.

Finally, the message pops up. Dearka reads it eagerly.

...

He reads it again. A few times, actually. It's only two words. It's not hard.]

So... I'm one of those weird, creepy laughing dogs? Don't they eat rotting meat or something?

[Obligatory OOC note that this is HYENA SLANDER and I do not endorse it, Dearka's a fool. We should all aspire to be like the mighty hyena.]

I think they're capable of hunting just fine since they're pack animals.

[ That's one of the like, two things Yzak knows about them. ]

But you can't deny that you ARE always going around laughing about something or other. [ Like Yzak's stupid jokes. (thanks for that though since he's really not funny) ]

Jeez, now you're just trying to make me feel self conscious, aren't you?

If I wanted to make you self conscious I would have just went with this.

[ Yes he has this saved. ]

Oh no, not the dog that was assigned to me by a guy pretending to be a computer programmer specifically trying to get a rise out of people! Anything but that.

I didn't go with that either way!

And, I didn't say you laughing about everything was a BAD thing, did I?

You rarely ever use any kind of tone indicators in your texts. How am I supposed to know for sure?

You should use more emojis, is what I'm saying. 😏

This is why I vastly prefer voice calls or just speaking in-person!

Emojis feel inane to use, for me. If you want clarification on anything I say, you could always just ask.

You want me to just ask< you if you're being sarcastic or not? Seriously?

If you can't tell, then yes!

In either case, I clarified. Your laugh is perfectly fine.

[ B-but it's not like he likes it or anthing, ]

Well that's a relief. Glad to know I've got the Jule seal of approval.

I still think you should try using emojis though. Or stickers. You gotta spice it up sometimes, old man.

I'M NOT OLD JUST BECAUSE I DON'T USE THAT STUFF.

Maybe not literally, but spiritually...?
