Enough is enough!

I've had it with that tree!

[ Yes, it's your cultivator sunshine with another nonsensical network message. You could think this is becoming a habit. ]

what tree?

[ She hates being late. There's so much she needs to catch up on. ]

[legbreakings]

The one near the gas station?

The creepy one?

I want to set it on fire.

[bearhole]

[ Okay. Has someone been hanging out with Emil? ]

then why don't you?

[legbreakings]

Because it is still behind the barrier! But it is getting ever closer. And more annoying with the side effects it has.

[bearhole]

[ Right, the barrier. She really needs to get her hands on a map. She should probably ask Lalli for one when she gets a chance. There's no way he's been stuck here for any length of time and hasn't scouted every inch of this place. ]

hang on... the TREE is getting CLOSER?

how does that work?

[legbreakings]

I don’t know! I'm not going to try and ASK it am I! It keeps knocking me out when it isn't leaving me dizzy and disoriented.

[bearhole]

well no duh you wouldn't ASK it. trees don't TALK.

[ But they do apparently get up and move. ...And make you dizzy and disoriented?

She needs to get a look at this tree. ]

where did you say it was again?

[legbreakings]

Near the gas station. You can't miss it if you go there, it is a very large tree and there are these

You need to see it for yourself to believe it. But be careful. Best you don't go alone.

[bearhole]

[ She hadn't been to the gas station yet, having come at the area from the direction of the hospital. She'd briefly run through the town just to make sure there wasn't anything nasty hiding out in the empty buildings, but once she saw they were clear for the most part, she'd let her guard down.

Maybe she shouldn't have. ]

The gas station? OK, I'll check it out.

[legbreakings]

It used to be the only place where we could find food and other supplies, before the barrier expanded to cover the town. It doesn't hold anything interesting now beyond the tree.

The clothes there were terrible and the food barely edible.

[taciturnly]

Are you so bored that you would seek quarrel with the local vegetation?

@Jiang.Wanyin

[legbreakings]

You don't get to tell me what to do or who to pick fights with, Hanguang-jun!

[taciturnly]

Your rancor serves no one, least of all you.

[legbreakings]

Why are you talking to me?

[taciturnly]

To diverge from a path I have seen the end of.

[legbreakings]

All you're making me diverge from is my conviction that hanging up on you would be rude.

[taciturnly]

Meditate.

[legbreakings]

I would ask you not to tell me what to do, Hanguang-jun.

[ Can you feed obnoxious people to the creepy tree? He's totally willing to find out. ]

[taciturnly]

( idk jiang wanyin are you willing to sacrifice yourself? )

And I would suggest you take heed.

[legbreakings]

I will take heed as it is warranted.

[taciturnly]

Then you would deliberately bask in your resentment.

[legbreakings]

You can leave my resentment to be my concern.

forgot about the username glitch. pretend it's been @norwidiot this whole time

[bearhole]

it can't have been that bad. you survived, didn't you?

[ She's pretty sure half of what Mikkel has fed them wasn't technically "edible." ]

[legbreakings]

It was still disgusting! Some of that so-called food didn’t even look like food!

[ He'd had instant food inflicted on him. ]

[bearhole]

what did it look like? an animal? because I hate to break it to you, but that's where a lot of food comes from...
