The 1st Pipe [Text] When in doubt, leave a note.

[pipefan413]

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.'

Apologies. But the mighty gods of Asgard don't appear to take into account the importance of previous affairs.

[zodiacpun]

It's a non-negotiable arrangement. However, if you do get in touch with them, let me know.

whoa uh hey
cool it down on the caps lock??

[colonist]

Woah, slow down! You can't just back down from a call for help! It's a big deal when people want your help, don't you know?

[pipefan413]

YOUNG MAN.

I CANNOT SAY THAT I DISAGREE WITH YOU ON THAT POINT. HOWEVER, BEFORE BEING BROUGHT HERE, I HAD PREVIOUSLY BEEN IN THE MIDST OF MY OWN MISSION TO HELP SOMEONE. I DON'T MEAN TO MAKE SOMETHING MORE OUT OF MY OWN PROBLEM, BUT WHEN A MAN'S SON IS IN DANGER, A MAN IS FORCED TO ORGANIZE HIS PRIORITIES. UNFORTUNATELY, EVERYTHING ELSE, HOLY OR NOT, MUST TAKE A BACK SEAT.

[pipefan413]

I BEG YOUR PARDON?

[Shut up, Chie. Clearly this is how everybody types.]

[pipefan413]

YOUNG MAN.

WITH ALL DUE RESPECT, NOTHING IS NON-NEGOTIABLE.

I WILL BE SURE TO LET YOU KNOW AS SOON AS I RECEIVE A RESPONSE OR FIND A SOLUTION OTHERWISE.

[pipefan413]

YOUNG LADY.

I WAS JUST BEGINNING TO GATHER THAT MYSELF. I'VE KNOWN A STRONGLY WORDED LETTER OR TWO TO DO WONDERS IN THE PAST, SO I THOUGHT I WOULD GIVE IT THE OLD COLLEGE TRY.

[What kind of respectable man would he be if he didn't?]

HOWEVER, THOUGH THE LETTER WAS MARKED AS URGENT, I HAVE YET TO RECEIVE A RESPONSE. I WILL GIVE THEM THE BENEFIT OF THE DOUBT AND WAIT A FEW MORE MINUTES. IF I DO NOT RECEIVE ONE IN THAT PERIOD OF TIME, I'M AFRAID I WILL BE FORCED TO SEARCH FOR ANOTHER SOLUTION.

[colonist]

Oh! That makes sense. Well, shoot, this isn't good then. Maybe if we petition them they'll let you get back to what you were doing.

[pipefan413]

[A petition, huh? Well, it may not be the fastest way...but it's certainly better than having to use force, as he threatened before...These so-called Gods couldn't very well ignore something like that, could they?]

YOUNG MAN.

YOU CERTAINLY MUST HAVE A GOOD HEAD ON YOUR SHOULDERS. A PETITION SOUNDS LIKE A WONDERFUL IDEA.

[aggrievance]

Simply "Rose" would be an adequate term of address.
As of yet, unless your plight appeals to our hosts' sense of whimsy, you may be awaiting a response far longer than necessary.
Gods don't often deign to lower themselves to the likes of man.

[colonist]

Well, gee, thanks! I'm not that clever, but that's just what I would do.

I can even help you write it, if you want! I'm great at that sort of thing.

((A more perfect union, man... more. prefect.))

[pipefan413]

[Rose? D: But...but you are a young lady. :( He can't just call you Rose...]

ROSE, THEN.

IN THAT CASE, I AM AFRAID I WILL JUST HAVE TO FIND ANOTHER WAY TO RETURN TO WHEREVER IT IS I WAS BEFORE.

[Because, honestly, he really has no idea where he was before...]

THOUGH I MAY NOT AGREE WITH THEIR METHODS OF RECRUITMENT, I DO BELIEVE THAT THEY MUST FEEL THEY ARE IN DIRE NEED OF HELP TO DO SUCH A THING. EVEN SO, GODS OR NOT, I MUST ATTEND TO MY OWN BUSINESS BEFORE I AM ABLE TO HELP THEM.

AS I HAVE STATED BEFORE, IT IS OF THE UTMOST URGENCY I COMPLETE THE AFOREMENTIONED TASK.

[pipefan413]

I BEG TO DIFFER, YOUNG MAN. AFTER ALL, I HAD YET TO THINK OF A MORE PROMISING SOLUTION. IT TAKES A CLEVER MAN TO FIND A PEACEFUL WAY OF DOING THINGS IN A DIFFICULT SITUATION.

FOR THAT, I COMMEND YOU.

OF COURSE, ANY HELP WOULD BE GREATLY APPRECIATED AT A TIME LIKE THIS. I WILL GLADLY TAKE YOU UP ON THAT OFFER.

[Text] because rory is totez a homestuck character

[timesnewroman]

what business were you conducting previously? maybe if it was really important and you let the gods know theyll let you leave?

[colonist]

No problem! You wanna get started now, or later?

[wristbands]

[NO IT'S NOT!!]

is your shift key broken or something?
...how does that even work on these keyboards

[Text] Well, he does have cardsuits in his icon keywords...(unsure)

[pipefan413]

YOUNG MAN.

THAT IS, IN FACT, EXACTLY WHAT I WAS HOPING TO ACCOMPLISH WITH THE MESSAGE ABOVE. YOU MAY BE RIGHT, HOWEVER. PERHAPS IF I SIMPLY CAME RIGHT OUT AND TOLD THEM WHAT IT WAS I WAS HOPING TO ACCOMPLISH BEFORE, THEY WOULD BE MORE UNDERSTANDING OF MY CURRENT PREDICAMENT.

HOW DOES THIS SOUND?

'NOTE: GODS OF ASGARD.

[pipefan413]

THOUGH I DO PLAN TO WAIT A LITTLE LONGER FOR A RESPONSE BEFORE THROWING IN THE TOWEL, I WOULD LIKE TO BEGIN PLANNING AS SOON AS IT IS CONVENIENT FOR YOU. AFTER ALL, IT WILL, NO DOUBT, TAKE TIME TO CONSTRUCT A STURDY AND THOROUGH PETITION.

I'M READY WHEN YOU ARE.

[pipefan413]

NOT THAT I'M AWARE OF.

[He just likes typing this way, okay? It is supposed to be a strongly-worded letter, after all.]

I also tried to talk with them and was never answered. I expect you will run into the same.
