[ Someone was awfully busy today! On the side of Hel's Welcome House, Painwheel has set up a small vegetable garden. Right now she's in the middle of setting up little signs to indicate where certain plants are growing. Looks like she's got tomatoes, onions, and carrots set up. It's a very small modest garden but Painwheel actually seems to be enjoying herself. She's even traded in her old ratted hospital gown for this dress, the choice being made quite obviously because of the wheel sticking out of her back. Though, she still hasn't felt the need to take off her mask while outside, it's a strange mixture between cute and downright scary.

After she finishes putting up the small signs, Painwheel fills up a watering can to begin watering the plants. She really hopes that watering her garden everyday will help calm her down enough to live a somewhat normal life. Her anger felt misplaced in Asgard. There were no laboratories or experiments or doctors or anyone else who could tell her what to do. And hopefully, it would stay that way. If not, she'd deal with it when she needed to. ]


[ Later on, she'll address the network. Audio only, as usual, sometimes it's nice to be a faceless voice. ]

Does anyone know if we're allowed to keep pets in the welcome houses? I don't think we are... but maybe I could get around it somehow.

If you want a pet, just get one. Who cares what other people think as long as you take good care of it.

[begrudged]

You know, I can't tell if you're a considerate person or an inconsiderate one.

[this_chair]

What does it matter in the end? The fact is, you're here on these people's convenience so you should be able to do whatever you want. They made you come here so damn the rules.

[begrudged]

Do you not like being here?

[this_chair]

I don't really care either way. If I'm needed here, then so be it. But I'm going to do what I want in the meantime.

[begrudged]

I guess that makes sense. I don't really mind it here, but I'd be lying if I said that I didn't leave stuff behind back at home.

[ You know getting revenge by killing Brain Drain and making sure the Anti-Skullgirls Labs were destroyed. Normal teenage girl stuff. ]

[this_chair]

That kind of stuff is natural. That's why you should get a pet no matter what. Consider it as some kind of payment for taking you away from home.

[begrudged]

Okay. I'll pick out a really big messy dog that sheds everywhere.

[this_chair]

If....if that's the kind of thing you like.

[begrudged]

I was joking. I can take care of a dog properly so it won't shed as much.

[this_chair]

As long it likes you better than whatever petshop, I don't care what you do.

[begrudged]

Dogs used to like me a lot. I donno about now.

[this_chair]

I don't see why their opinion would change.

[begrudged]

I don't really get you... or most people here, really. You're all really confusing.

[this_chair]

What's so confusing about it? Dogs don't really judge people unless you're mean with them. As long as you have food and take care of it, they're happy.

[begrudged]

[ Shiki why. ]

I know that! I'm really good with dogs, or at least I used to be.

[this_chair]

What do you mean by 'used to be'?

[begrudged]

I mean when I was normal.

[this_chair]

Painwheel....you know....

[begrudged]

Please don't say you think that I was born looking like this.

[this_chair]

No, I'm going to ask if you can drop the normal thing. You are who you are. It's what you do that defines who you are, not how you look.

Besides, I'm friends with this Painwheel, a person that I like. So that's the only one I care about. I'm sure Arihiko would say the exact same thing.

[and suddenly a "new" voice.


no arihiko can't hack for shit he's literally hanging around in Shiki's room right now because they're bummy bffs and caleb doens't get a say in this because i'm too lazy to log on aim rn. SO WE ARE DOING LIVE COMMENTARY]

Ditto. I'd sound less cheesy than Tohno here though.

[this_chair]

[Tag somewhere up above Jammers, because this has become an awful thread. Unless Painwheel wants to be awful too.]

Less cheesy, huh? You'd probably go "Oi, oi, oi, oi!" or something else. Something more monkey like.

[arihibro]

Monkeys don't go "Oi", you dumbass.

[okok]

[begrudged]

[ I'll just tag off of this. ]

People like you are weird. You know anyone else would be hung up on things like appearances, right? That makes both of you really unusual...

... Not to say that I don't appreciate it, though.
