I come from a time of space travel and good tech. That doesn't mean I'm up to date on all of the chat slang. Especially the chat slang that's not from my world.

Elena sounds like a good person to blame. I'll blame her too.
well. ........... welllllllllllllllll. hey, she was trying to be a supportive friend!!
Yes. S8ur8 and Sgru8 are two different versions of the same game. This is a game that decides the f8 of entire universes!
FROM: serket.vriska@cdc.org
It 8ecame the framework for our realities and facilit8ed the creation and destruction of at least four different universes that I'm aware of.
FROM: serket.vriska@cdc.org
Very few players are ever chosen to play it! Those players are predestined, and they are always already going to play the game, whether they know it or not.
FROM: serket.vriska@cdc.org
Trolls were the only species players were selected from in my universe. Humans were the only species in another!
FROM: serket.vriska@cdc.org
Hence why we were the only species that mattered.
FROM: serket.vriska@cdc.org
Aw. ::::( Lame. You can't tell me I can throw anyone I like under wheel devices and then a8ruptly claim it's not cool! Way to jerk a girl around.
Hahahahahahahaha. Just when I think we can't up the pedant ante any further, you prove me wrong!
FROM: serket.vriska@cdc.org
Fine. I will save the wheels made out of 8alloons and fluffy hop8easts for people we like, and the ones with spikes and dripping acid for the people we don't.
It sounds like a way I don't have to break out my limited English and try sounding out words every time we message each other. You know how many human letters need lips? Know who doesn't have lips?
I can't remember it, whoops
Is lol related to lel?
FROM: vakarian.garrus@cdc.org
When I wound up here I didn't imagine I'd be hugging anyone. Now it keeps happening. I blame everyone except me. Seems a healthy approach.
it was about running and crying to noh, you meanie.
What? What the hell does lel mean.
FROM: serket.vriska@cdc.org
Do you seriously not know what chatspeak is? I thought you came from a futuristic space whatever!
FROM: serket.vriska@cdc.org
Hahahaha. I 8lame Elena! She started me down this path of grossly corporeal displays of friendship.
OH RIGHT. Well, she's a tattletale. ;)
Aeryn said it was a term for amusement.

Not one I've ever heard. I think she was fucking with you. Lol means laugh out loud.
FROM: serket.vriska@cdc.org
Ugh. Laaaaaaaaame, Garrus. And no excuse! O8viously you should 8e learning.
FROM: serket.vriska@cdc.org
::::P She'd pro8a8ly 8e happy if she knew.
mmhmmmmm
Maybe it's something from her universe. But I'll remember that your universe uses lol.
FROM: vakarian.garrus@cdc.org
From what I know of Elena, I'm not surprised. She's a good person, good friend to have. You gonna go hug her?
rude. >(
Where I come from is not a single universe! It is technically a whole 8unch. O8viously that means my version is 8etter than everyone else's.
FROM: serket.vriska@cdc.org
Please. I already did. She might actually 8e the nicest person I've ever met? I can never 8e mean to her, it sucks. ::::(
yep
Or it means yours is messier and more disorganized. And lacking. You've only got trolls and humans, no other species, in multiple universes?
FROM: vakarian.garrus@cdc.org
We've got 21 sentient species, currently, in one galaxy in a small part of our universe. And there have been plenty in the past.
FROM: vakarian.garrus@cdc.org
Don't worry, Vriska. I'm sure if you really feel it, you can find a way to be mean to her.
no subject
Nope! Of course not. 8ut as much as this will sound like 8oasting to you, we were the only species that mattered.
FROM: serket.vriska@cdc.org
::::)
FROM: serket.vriska@cdc.org
Haha. Thanks, Garrus! That was inspiring. In fact, I think I'll try right now!
no subject
It sounds boring. :}
FROM: vakarian.garrus@cdc.org
Mmhmm. If you do, blame Noh-Varr instead of me, yeah?
no subject
Fuck you! Look, it 8n't my fault that we are the only species that Sgru8 and S8ur8 decided to give a shit a8out.
FROM: serket.vriska@cdc.org
Haha! Way to throw him under the four wheel device. I'll 8e sure to. :::;)
no subject
Are those troll deities?
FROM: vakarian.garrus@cdc.org
It's far more fun to throw people you care about under things than people you don't.
no subject
What? No. Man, I keep forgetting I've really only told Noh-Varr a8out the game.
FROM: serket.vriska@cdc.org
It's complic8ed to explain. Do you have video games in your futuristic space whatever?
FROM: serket.vriska@cdc.org
Hahahaha! Good point. I'll keep that in mind when I need sacrifices in the future!
no subject
Yes, we have video games. A lot of them. It's related?
FROM: vakarian.garrus@cdc.org
I draw the line before getting to sacrifices, personally. Please don't go sacrificing Noh-Varr. Or Kyouya.

What were the species in the other two?
FROM: vakarian.garrus@cdc.org
Tossing someone under shuttles or four-wheeled things isn't sacrificing them. They're supposed to survive. Sacrifices aren't.
no subject
Nice try. Still humans and trolls! 8ut they were composed of our dancestors. People who were 8oth our ancestors and our descendants!
FROM: serket.vriska@cdc.org
Timeline shenanigans, Garrus. Soooooooo many shenanigans.
FROM: serket.vriska@cdc.org
Ok, this is getting incredi8ly pedantic. Either way someone is getting crushed under the unforgiving wheels of f8!
no subject
Your universe has issues. So many issues.
FROM: vakarian.garrus@cdc.org
If I like them, then let's go for non-lethal wheels. If neither of us likes them, crush away.
no subject
You don't know the half of it! ::::)

It's a really good thing I've been working so hard on my English, with how your typing trips up the translator.
FROM: vakarian.garrus@cdc.org
But yes. Better.
no subject
What! Fuck you, no one else has had a pro8lem!

and they have said

FROM: serket.vriska@cdc.org
I don't know why i 8other with English anyway. Just one more way I'm assimil8ing human culture!
no subject
Can you even throw 8s into Alternian the way you do English?
no subject
The Alternian alpha8et is completely different from the human alpha8et! 8ut that doesn't mean I can't do my spider thing. ::::)
[ that's not how any of this works and also it isn't actually that different at all ]
no subject
You should just draw spiders. Then there's more art to it on your part and the translator doesn't throw a fit for everyone else.
no subject
That sounds really dum8, Garrus. Simon made a cool spider emote for me once, though. /\(::vv::)/\
