How do you control your feelings?

Mostly weed.

I appreciate the suggestion but ah... I don't think chemicals are going to work for me.

[palmerthing]

No? Why not? *He looks slightly paranoid.* Are you an alien or something?

[sunsetseraph]

Well, in the sense that I'm certainly not human, you could refer to me as an alien, but then if we're going to go with that definition of an alien, you're just as much of an alien as I am!

Alien is really a subjective term, I could refer to you as alien unto myself considering the definition of alien in this context would be "relating to or denoting beings supposedly from other worlds"-

... I'm sorry, I got off track. That... that wasn't answering the question at all, let me back up.

It won't work because I'm not really organic.

I have no idea if that was a deliberate reference, but either way it was great

[palmerthing]

As alien as you are! *He laughs, slightly hysterically.* Oh man, you have no idea.

Wow. Do you mean, like, robotic or spiritual?

[sunsetseraph]

... Are you okay?

Erm well it's... kind of both? At the same time? It's a bit difficult to explain, I can draw parallels between things you might be familiar with, but it's not precisely equal.

I still have no idea where characters are in this kind of thread, aside from blank white space LOL

You ever see one of those movies where the aliens are pretending to be humans and everyone goes paranoid as fuck? Yeah, that was my life before I arrived here. Wherever 'here' is.

Now I'm just imagining a robot angel or something. Hey, mind if I smoke? The aforesaid paranoia-inducing Hell was stressful like you wouldn't believe.

I always just assume a malleable reality/blank space until something's brought up

Movies haven't been invented yet. It's on the itinerary! Eventually. It's a bit down the line, I have to admit I don't know very much about them... But... regardless, I can understand why you'd be a little on edge. Ah, if it helps! I'm not an alien pretending to be a human! ... Maliciously. It's more for the sake of everyone's comfort.

A bit! More of an automaton then a robot.

Oh no please, go ahead. I ah... really can't smell or taste much of anything, so I can't see any reason why you shouldn't make yourself comfortable.

*He thinks a moment, then decides he might as well be honest. No one here has high explosives, after all.* Well I'm not doing it maliciously either. Some of the others might be, but I just happen to like being a stoner. Honestly, if the dogthing hadn't gone and tried to actively change all the other dogs like an idiot no one would have known and I wouldn't be tiptoeing around lunatics with flamethrowers.

*He lights a joint.* If it did anything for you--no, I still wouldn't offer you a hit. Too likely to cause a passive change.

That's easy! Uh... have a good cry? [ Kronk doesn't understand the question, does he. ]
