GODS OF ASGARD.

WHILE I AM FLATTERED TO HAVE BEEN RECRUITED FOR WHAT SEEMS A MOST NOBLE CAUSE, I MUST INSIST THAT I BE RELEASED IMMEDIATELY AND ALLOWED TO RETURN TO THE BUSINESS I HAD BEEN CONDUCTING PREVIOUSLY. PLEASE UNDERSTAND THAT IT IS OF THE UTMOST IMPORTANCE MY ENERGY BE FOCUSED ON MY OWN AFFAIRS AT THIS TIME. IF ALLOWED TO LEAVE PEACEFULLY, I WILL GLADLY CONSIDER RETURNING TO OFFER MY ASSISTANCE AT A LATER DATE. HOWEVER, FORCE WILL BE USED IF NECESSARY.

PLEASE MAKE HASTE WITH YOUR RESPONSE(S). IT IS URGENT.

[Added later, after this conversation:]


'NOTE: GODS OF ASGARD.

'IN CASE YOU WERE WONDERING WHAT IT WAS I WAS HOPING TO ACCOMPLISH BEFORE BEING BROUGHT HERE, I WOULD LIKE TO INFORM YOU THAT I WAS IN THE MIDST OF SEARCHING FOR MY SON, JOHN EGBERT. THOUGH I DO PLAN TO SEARCH YOUR CITY THOROUGHLY FOR HIM BEFORE DEPARTING, IN THE EVENT THAT I AM NOT SUCCESSFUL I SHOULD LIKE TO BE RETURNED TO THE PLACE FROM WHICH YOU BROUGHT ME IN ORDER TO CONTINUE MY SEARCH FOR HIM.'

the old college try?
what does that mean??

[pipefan413]

THE OLD COLLEGE TRY?

WHY, TO GIVE SOMETHING 'THE OLD COLLEGE TRY' WOULD SIMPLY MEAN THAT YOU ARE TRYING YOUR VERY HARDEST TO DO WHATEVER IT IS YOU'RE DOING WELL, JUST LIKE YOU WOULD ON A COLLEGE PAPER OR EXAM!

HADN'T YOU EVER HEARD THAT EXPRESSION BEFORE?

[wristbands]

nope, can't say i have!
but huh... i like that!
the meaning behind it, i mean

[pipefan413]

WELL, OF COURSE! WHY WOULDN'T YOU? YOU CAN NEVER DO ANY BETTER THAN YOUR BEST, AFTER ALL! AS LONG AS YOU'RE TRYING YOUR HARDEST, YOU CAN ALWAYS HAVE SOMETHING TO BE PROUD OF.

[wristbands]

well some people are pessimists
you know the kind who just don't bother trying for w/e reason
but i'm not like that at all
i totally agree w/ you!!

[pipefan413]

WELL, IF THAT'S THE CASE, YOU MUST BE A VERY MATURE AND PROMISING YOUNG WOMAN. WITH AN ATTITUDE LIKE THAT, I'M SURE YOU'LL DO VERY WELL WITH YOUR LIFE.

I'VE ALWAYS BEEN OF THE PERSONAL OPINION THAT A PESSIMIST IS REALLY JUST SOMEONE WHO NEVER GREW UP AND LEARNED HOW TO PROPERLY TAKE RESPONSIBILITY FOR THEIR OWN LIVES.

[wristbands]

hahaha i try!
thanks :)

and hmmm... yeah i can see that
it's kind of sad if you think about it :(

[pipefan413]

IT TRULY IS. AND THAT IS WHY YOU MUST ALWAYS TRY YOUR VERY BEST NO MATTER WHAT ANYONE ELSE SAYS. IF THERE IS ANYONE WHO IS TRYING TO HURT YOU OR MAKE YOU THINK NEGATIVELY ABOUT YOURSELF, JUST REMEMBER THAT THEY, THEMSELVES, ARE THE UNFORTUNATE ONES.

AS LONG AS YOU ARE DOING THE BEST YOU CAN, YOU WILL ALWAYS HAVE SOMETHING TO BE PROUD OF. THAT'S WHAT I ALWAYS SAY.

[wristbands]

yeah...
that's right!!!
i feel all kinds of encouraged right now ;D
& i really mean that!

i'm chie satonaka btw

[pipefan413]
