[As he does so:]

Is Blue your real name? Either way, it’s nice to meet you.

[personal profile] counterclocked 2020-03-24 02:55 am (UTC)(link)
Okay. Blue it is, then.

[After a moment:]

Not that it's bad or anything, but - have you always looked like this, too?

[personal profile] counterclocked 2020-03-24 03:34 am (UTC)(link)
Oh, just - the flower, and... You know what, never mind, it doesn't really matter. I was just curious.
counterclocked: (pic#13615425)

[personal profile] counterclocked 2020-03-24 03:44 am (UTC)(link)
Right, yeah. I kind of got that... But, um, what are you? If that's not completely rude, please ignore me if it is.
counterclocked: (pic#13619881)

[personal profile] counterclocked 2020-03-24 03:53 am (UTC)(link)
Yeah, I think so too.

[After a moment:]

It's good to finally get to talk to you. I didn't think I'd really get the chance before we got out of here.

[He looks towards the ground for a moment, rubbing at his neck.]

Sorry. I should have written back, I just - it's not an excuse. I wasn't sure we could trust you, but... Now I get that you've been trying to help us the entire time.
counterclocked: (pic#13619938)

[personal profile] counterclocked 2020-03-24 04:16 am (UTC)(link)
[He's not sure which way to take it, either, so after a moment:]

Yeah. It hasn't been easy for anyone. But... It's not like you brought us here just to mess with us.
counterclocked: (pic#13619941)

[personal profile] counterclocked 2020-03-24 04:23 am (UTC)(link)
Right, but... What would have happened if you didn't bring us here?

[...]

If we do fuck up and all of us die, though, I would definitely recommend an age limit for the next time you do this. The part where there's an 11 year old here is kind of messed up.

[personal profile] counterclocked 2020-03-24 04:29 am (UTC)(link)
[He nods.]

Yeah. Like, really young. Nobody's ever told you that before...?
counterclocked: (pic#13619936)

[personal profile] counterclocked 2020-03-24 04:34 am (UTC)(link)
[He sighs.]

Well, they were. And, I mean, most of us are, too. Usually the cut off age is around 18, but I'd definitely put it higher for something like this.
counterclocked: (pic#13615426)

[personal profile] counterclocked 2020-03-24 04:41 am (UTC)(link)
...I thought you picked us all specifically?
counterclocked: (pic#13615418)

[personal profile] counterclocked 2020-03-24 04:47 am (UTC)(link)
Well, I guess it doesn't matter since we're not going to let that happen.

[Still, though, he looks curious.]

If that's the case, though, in a hypothetical and definitely not real situation where this happens over again, wouldn't you be able to pick people who are older than us...?
counterclocked: (pic#13615418)

[personal profile] counterclocked 2020-03-24 04:55 am (UTC)(link)
[He pauses, surprised, but:]

Okay, I have numerous questions about why you picked some of these people, but first off - you get why bringing someone young here is bad, right? Or has nobody explained that to you either...?
