Very Sorry For Interrupting, I Hope Your Noggin’s Gonna Do Better! But Hey, Self Defense Is The Best

🔆Ah, why hello~! I came here just to really... Only say hi! It's so good to finally meet you! I need help on something.... My anger issues. I uh.... Have pretty bad outbursts sometimes... I'm sure you saw when Ritual stabbed me. It was, well... Not pretty. I threatened a CHILD! I just- Need something to nullify my anger... And I thought you could help! Especially since we need to work in the daycare place...🔆

Trick taps her claws together a few times, as if in deep thought.

"That part really depends, your entire trait being hope makes your state of mind really fragile... a good part of controlling that is just actual practice. You know, when I was a younger anon I used to throw people over the table if they bluffed me in a game of poker."

The anon chuckles as she searches through her robe for something and eventually retrieves another card, this one with quite the number of engravings on it.

"This is a Trap!Card, it's loaded with a fatigue effect that'll go off if you do go hopeless. I know making you pass out whenever you'd normally get angry isn't the best solution but I can't exactly take your hopeless state away from you... without also taking away your hope trait."

"This one has five uses, should last you awhile, but you'd have to make a deal for it. Nothing predatory, I promise, but I can't exactly give these away for free, you understand? Localized asker spells are are really hard to make into something this stable."

My name...you can call me Eluy!

Understood, remember the command prompt we mentioned earlier? It unfortunately contains a dreaded

"click to verify you are not a robot"

Security measure, most devious. We have yet to crack such a secure lock such as clicking a textbox with random patterns.

Synthesizing hands has been considered unviable, but you all have hands, correct? You could be capable of bypassing such a difficult security measure.

Then manual didn't come? I'll have someone ship it to you, but yeah! Also, sorry about your head! I can get you a new shelf if the one you smashed your head on broke.

“Eh, it’s fine, I... get hit quite a lot, you get used to it. Plus I’ve been gluing my stuff to the shelf ever since someone tried to rob me, so everything’s fine!”

Well, if you think this would qualify me then you had to see me when I needed to deal with a shape and a mer that were trying to kill each other and start a war, that was chaotic, Appri's world is chaotic.

The screen snapped back into a playing card, and with another slight of hand trick, the anon made it appear as if it had just disappeared. Where exactly was it keeping those cards? Maybe up it’s sleeves? That’d be ironic. “Exactly! And we’re dealing with Appri’s younger anons, they’d likely be constantly chaotic. You’ve shown you can deal passively with a chaotic situation, so... why not? Once again Appri’d be the one to finalize things but... I think the opinion’ll be the same in that regard.”

*Slowly get out of hiding place* I am here to say hello.

“Hm? Who said that oH STARLIGHT WHAT THE-”

She jumps about three feet in the air, and nearly knocks over an entire flatscreen display on the wall behind her in the process. Seems your asterisk‘s lack of description means your hiding spot was under the couch she was sitting on.

“Bloody hell, you nearly gave me a heart attack... yes, hello. You... actually, haven’t I seen you before? You were running around the boat in Appri’s sector awhile back, right?”

*There was a knock at the door* 🔆H~Hello~? Is anyone home..? I've come to speak with Trick~!🔆

A whisk of Trick's arm and the door opens of its own volition. She turns to look at her second guest of the evening, pleasantly surprised.

"Oh, Hope! Welcome, sorry I'm... not exactly the most organized at the moment, what can I do for you?"

(@appri-dot) Strawberry is scandalized, they pout overdramatically, but can't help but grin at your trick. "That's cheating! You can't jus-"

The critter was cut off rather rudely by the entire hallway shaking, accompanied by a loud rumbling sound that caused them to quite nearly fall over, clutching your arm for support.

"T-that doesn't sound good-"

Appri-Caught (RP thread)

Yes! I like hugs and I wanted to visit you since I've heard about you in Appri's blog!

“Ah, not surprised, they’ve been trying to organize someone to take care of the younger anons and apparently i’m one of the candidates. I’d help out whenever I could but…” She looks back at the multitude of screens on the wall, all brimming with different displays and pieces of data. Most of this looked like it was monitoring other universes. “My paws are a bit full, I wouldn’t be able to be the main caretaker, y’know? You though… so far you seem to be good with that sort of stuff.”
