[There's the usual static hum on everyone's PCD, as the screen goes black. After a moment, a low flute tone starts up, continuing as a background melody throughout. For anyone who hears it, it would sound vaguely familiar, from their home world- though played inexpertly, as if they couldn't entirely remember how it was supposed to go.]


too soon, too early

not quickly enough

calm down, take a breath we're still setting up
we'll take it apart
you always do

we can carry it ourselves
is it really necessary

^finally, that's better
wait what's going on

Someone who wouldn't mind spending the time to pull a prank on others. Is there anyone there like that?

[adstring-npc.livejournal.com]

not me

everyone's so suspicious

[genkireaper]

Well generally, tables don't stack themselves. It's far more likely that someone did it in secret. Unless these aren't normal tables, and they usually move on their own.

If they do, then you could just ask them to move, couldn't you?

but none of us have arms
we're not good at stacking things
apart from each other
(though it's crowded)

the tables do have more legs than usual...

[genkireaper]

[Wut. Seriously, what are these animus things?]

I see...

Do all the legs match? I suppose asking the tables might actually work...

[adstring-npc.livejournal.com]

oh

...

[genkireaper]

Ah...

Then where are the tables? It sounded like you needed them for something.

another room
it's pretty hard to balance things on insects

[genkireaper]

Centipedes aren't exactly insects... What is it that you wanted to balance?

[adstring-npc.livejournal.com]

they have legs and bodies
all ingredients for insects

lots of things
maybe glasses

[genkireaper]

Problem is too many legs. Insects only have six. Centipedes are really creepy like that.

[Glasses, huh?]

Setting up some games, or a party?
