Yes. S8ur8 and Sgru8 are two different versions of the same game. This is a game that decides the f8 of entire universes!

It 8ecame the framework for our realities and facilit8ed the creation and destruction of at least four different universes that I'm aware of.

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 only knew one other troll who got kind of a 8ad 8r8k with her lusus, 8ut that was what she got for 8eing 8orn into Alternian royalty. And she had help taking care of hers!
FROM: serket.vriska@cdc.org
I dealt with mine all alone. I was the only one strong enough to handle her!
FROM: serket.vriska@cdc.org
Haha. Yeah, Noh-Varr told me a8out how his species raises warriors from a young age.
FROM: serket.vriska@cdc.org
It's weird to me that it's our cultures that are strange, you know? Humans have all these moral hang ups a8out children that I'll never really get.
Our cultures aren't strange. Human culture is strange. ;}
FROM: vakarian.garrus@cdc.org
But I think it has a lot to do with evolution, if I was gonna make a guess. I mean, look at them. They don't have talons, or sharp teeth, or horns. Their young require a lot more care.
FROM: vakarian.garrus@cdc.org
Can't count how many times humans I know have asked others if they were dropped on the head as an infant. Not really a worry for turian young.
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.

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.

But yes. Better.

What! Fuck you, no one else has had a pro8lem!

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::)/\

Too 8ad, you 8ig 8a8y! We all gotta deal with the human supremacy here.

You are an asshole.
[But he's more amused than anything else.]
no subject
Do you go around calling every little girl you talk to an asshole? That's disgusting and reprehensi8le 8ehavior, Garrus.
no subject
I call assholes assholes.

And little girl my ass. Nobody who has killed is little.
no subject
::::P
FROM: serket.vriska@cdc.org
Hey, I was pretty little when I had to land my first kill! At least 8y human standards, if I had to guess. I was 3!
no subject
By most standards I've heard of. Not too surprising for krogan or vorcha, but most others, yeah. That usual for trolls?
no subject
It depends on the troll, and which lusus 8ecomes their guardian. I would say it's pretty uncommon, 8ut definitely not unheard of.
FROM: serket.vriska@cdc.org
I just kind of won the lusus lottery. ::::/
FROM: serket.vriska@cdc.org
To clarify a little, a 3 sweep old troll would 8e equivalent to a 6 year old human.
no subject
Won, or lost? Bumping it up to six keeps it the same for krogan or vorcha, and we're still probably not including other species.
FROM: vakarian.garrus@cdc.org
Except maybe Kree.
no subject
Lost might 8e a 8etter word. I h8ed my lusus.
