... Hey, uh. So normally when we use this ability to contact another mental network, it's not a long term thing.

It's been... I know time is fucky here but at least an hour. That... shouldn't be happening.

You’re part of the network but not a Conductor proper...

And if you can teach us that trick, it’ll be a considerable help.

I... think it might have to do with my psychic defenses? And, uh.

... One of us who knows more about this kind of shit than I do seems to think your memes might spread it. Which I know is terrible, since it's kind of hard to not meme.

Way ahead of you.

Can you extend defenses around someone else?
helborn: (you're kind of cute)

[personal profile] helborn 2020-09-14 01:31 am (UTC)(link)
I don't think so, but I can probably teach you how to do it.
lightnovelexperiences: (Default)

we technically don't need these threads anymore but they're rad

[personal profile] lightnovelexperiences 2020-09-17 08:14 am (UTC)(link)
Teach me, sifu.
letsgetdowntobismuth: (VERY clever)

[personal profile] letsgetdowntobismuth 2020-09-14 03:43 am (UTC)(link)
Oh, aren't you a little smart-ass?

[She sounds amused more than annoyed. Here's her going and getting silvered and he's just jacking in.]
helborn: (okay well maybe not)

[personal profile] helborn 2020-09-14 05:18 am (UTC)(link)
Honestly I have no idea why I didn't go Conductor but stayed connected. There has to be a reason the network here isn't letting me go.
letsgetdowntobismuth: (hmmmm)

[personal profile] letsgetdowntobismuth 2020-09-14 05:22 am (UTC)(link)
Well, maybe there's more to being a Conductor than just being hooked into their memes. You're not using them, for one.

Maybe it's a defensive thing. I don't have any of those skills.
helborn: (i'm not an anime protag i swear)

[personal profile] helborn 2020-09-14 05:25 am (UTC)(link)
I was told to avoid doing that, but I've shared a few on this... network. So I've definitely used them, it's like.

Uh.

Like I'm carrying the disease rather than having the symptoms? Maybe?

Also it's a little late but I can teach you if you want. You know, for just general protection.
letsgetdowntobismuth: (riiiiight)

[personal profile] letsgetdowntobismuth 2020-09-14 05:30 am (UTC)(link)
I'll take your word on that one. [Human biology, man.] But if this place is already The Meme Zone, throwing one more into the pile isn't gonna max the concentration out any worse.

But if memes are invaders, then giving them an in to another network won't end well. Take it from an invader's ex-servant.

[personal profile] helborn 2020-09-14 06:09 am (UTC)(link)
Yeah I'm... doing my best to keep the others safe. And hopefully if we figure out what's causing it, it won't spread anymoree.
letsgetdowntobismuth: (sideeyes)

[personal profile] letsgetdowntobismuth 2020-09-14 06:24 am (UTC)(link)
Well, howsabout we do this in person instead of telling everyone here everything?
helborn: (i'm not an anime protag i swear)

[personal profile] helborn 2020-09-14 06:48 am (UTC)(link)
Sounds good to me. Are you - oh.

Oh you're not on the space station right now, are you?
letsgetdowntobismuth: (do you see this shit)

[personal profile] letsgetdowntobismuth 2020-09-14 10:00 am (UTC)(link)
Sorry, kiddo, I'm still in Questing Country. I'd offer a Mind Palace but I dunno if that's gonna finish off infecting you.

It's a thing we do sometimes.

And since you don't know what it means, you're not one of us yet.

No offense.
helborn: (huh wha i didn't do it)

[personal profile] helborn 2020-09-14 05:09 pm (UTC)(link)
I'm okay with that. No offense.

But yeah, I don't... know why I'm still hooked in. I guess it'll make it easier to pass information between us, but Bismuth could do that, too.
